I decided to post it on Monday as it is sometimes easier. If Monday works better for you please let me know and I will continue to do so.

Week/Fruit?

How are you feeling?

News/Appointments?

Movement?

GTKY: How are names coming? Any one with a name nailed down? Family names? if you don't mind sharing.

There's no Saturday one so I'm just going to jump in on the Sunday one

Week/Fruit?  18 - sweet potato!

How are you feeling?  Besides the freaky dream that I had a seahorse in my womb....GREAT!

News/Appointment? Tomorrow is my first appointment at my new ob/gyn's office.  Hopefully I'll get an a/s date soon now! 

Movement? Nope, nada, zilch, nothin'!

GTKY:  If we have a girl she will be name Lily Maureen and a boy will be Cooper Mason.  

Lily I got from Harry Potter because it's a beautiful name and she's always been a positive character and Cooper was after years of debating over names.  Luckily we finally figured one out!

Maureen and Mason are plays off of my maiden name, Maurer.  Obviously Maureen and Maurer are just close in spelling and Maurer is german for "wall" or "wall builder"...thus Mason!

Week/Fruit? 20 weeks, the size of a cantaloup. 

How are you feeling? I am doing well, quite tired. I have had a pretty easy pregnancy.

News/Appointments? Tomorrow is our A/S, we are so excited to see our wee one. I am also doing a meet and greet with a midwife in early November, if it goes well my care will be transferred to her rather than an OB/GYN. So I am looking forward to that too.

Movement? Tons. Baby has times where it is definitely more awake and kicking. I am loving it but, sometimes it is quite surprising.

GTKY: How are names coming? Anyone with a name nailed down? Family names? We have a girls name pretty much 100% picked, Isla Elizabeth. Boys names have been really difficult to come up with. We are planning on using my brother who passed's middle name as our boys middle name if we have a boy.

Week/Fruit? 19 weeks-mango

How are you feeling?  I've been feeling a lot better.  I randomly threw up this weekend but I haven't done that for about two weeks.  My back is starting to hurt a bit.

News/Appointments?  We have our big scan on Friday and hopefully will find out what I'm having.  I go back and forth everyday and I just want to know what it is!

Movement?  Yes, I've been feeling lots of movement and my husband is jealous.

GTKY: How are names coming? Any one with a name nailed down? Family names? if you don't mind sharing.  Names--It's funny these are the names we have liked for years and I thought they would change but we always come back to them--- Jack William (his grandfather and mine), and Aubrey Elizabeth (Elizabeth is my confirmation name, and we've always like the name Aubrey).

Week/Fruit? 18 weeks/Sweet Potato

How are you feeling? Much better lately. I had some sleepless nights the past few weeks, but have been getting solid sleep lately and it's helping me feel WAY better.

News/Appointments? Appointment's still 2 weeks away and I wish it was sooner so the doctor would put in the order for the anatomy scan and I knew what day I'd confirm that this LO is a boy (or surprise us and be a girl). I am hoping to talk to my doctor about my EDD. The NT scan correlated with what I believed my due date to be, which is a full week sooner than what my doctor has and I forgot to bring it up to him last time. I know EDD doesn't mean a ton in the end, but...

Movement? Getting more frequent, but still not very noticeable. Haven't been able to lay still and just feel for it, though, and I am 20lbs heavier than I'd like to be, so that's making it harder to feel things.

GTKY: How are names coming? Any one with a name nailed down? Family names? if you don't mind sharing. We do family middle names. DH and I have a girl named picked out, have since before I got the BFP: Heather Elaine. The boy name is proving more difficult. We had one (Gabriel Dean) picked out for the longest time, but after a few years with that at the top of our list, we're both not a fan of it anymore. Current fore-runners are Connor Tex and Logan Tex/Dean.

Week/Fruit? 21 - Banana

How are you feeling? Physically, not too bad.... emotionally, I'm a train wreck

News/Appointments? Appointment free this week.  Was at hospital last week for a polyp removal, and next week I have a follow-up ultrasound relating to Foci in Placenta on A/S

Movement? I think so, I think I have had the odd kick way down low.  I believe my OB said that at my A/S, I have an anterior placenta and baby is breech; so I don't think things are working in my favour for feeling movement.

GTKY: How are names coming? Any one with a name nailed down? Family names? if you don't mind sharing.  Name has been picked since before we found out he was a boy... technically was picked befor we TTC'd (largely because the name I wanted was vetoed by DH).  Our DS will be JD, John Davd; John after DHs dad, and David after my Dad.

I like Mondays better for posting this!

 

 

Week/Fruit? 18/sweet potato

How are you feeling? Horribly exhausted. Instead of getting better, it's only getting worse.

News/Appointments? 2 more weeks til our AS! We're so excited to find out the gender!

Movement? When I sit or lay down after I eat, I can feel some movement.

GTKY: I'm pretty sure we have names narrowed down, but we're not sharing with anyone. Everyone seems to have their own two cents about everything, and we don't want anyone's opinions on our names.

Week/Fruit? 20 weeks -- Cantaloupe

How are you feeling? Huge! Otherwise, I've been feeling pretty good. Heartburn when I eat/drink anything red, but I can't complain, otherwise.

News/Appointments? We know we're having a little girl.. already had a/s, and everything looks great! Thank goodness! Next appointment not until November.

 

Movement? Yes! My baby has officially stopped "fluttering" and has actually started kicking. It's crazy wonderful!

 

GTKY: We're pretty sure that we have our name picked out. It's funny, because we were convinced we were having a boy, before a/s, so we already had a boy name picked out. It took us a little bit, but we've decided on Scarlett Christine, for our baby girl.

Week: 20!! Seems like everyone's fruit is different for week 20, but my website is telling me banana.

 How are you feeling? Great, starting to get bigger by the day. But it's so exciting to be showing

News: Just found out we are having a boy. We're shocked and excited!!!

Movement? Tons, in fact he's moving and kicking right now. Mostly active at night and after I eat.

GTKY: We don't have any names picked out yet. We seriously thought we were having a girl so we had more girl names picked out. All we know is that my husbands first name (stephen) will be the baby's middle name (which is also my dads name just spelled different). It's going to be fun coming up with names though

Week: 21 - Pomegranate 

Feeling?: Good, starting to get some lower back pain now and then but overall I'm doing good.

News/Appointments: No updates; next appointment is scheduled at 24 weeks

Movement: More and more- DH actually felt him kick the other day, he's getting stronger. Crazy how it went from little flutters to kicks/jabs almost overnight!

GTKY: Names- oh..... We have it (somewhat) narrowed down. Russell will be his middle name (DH's middle as well) so we are trying to decide between Adam, Benjamin, Nathan, Samuel and Thomas. Don't know if we will decide before he's born, or maybe narrow it to two and then decide. My big thing is not wanting my family to have input- I love them and all but it's our decision and I'd rather not share until there's no going back. (heck, even after we decided on DD my mom questioned our middle name choice, MIDDLE NAME!!)
