  • *What is your EDD/how far along?
    July 5th, 23w tomorrow 
     
    *How have you been feeling/doing?
    Pretty good overall.  Just tired--DD is back to waking up at 6:30 am after a month or so of waking up around 7:15 :( 
     
    *Any appointments or milestones?
    Monthly OB appt yesterday.  Funny story--LO was squirming all over the place while Dr was trying to use doppler.  He said, "You can run, but you can't hide!" and then grabbed her by the legs--literally--and made her stay still to listen to her hb.  And then I guess she was kicking his hand!  I have no idea how he even knew what or where to grab!  Have my 1hr GTT test in a few weeks, then an appt in 4w where I get my Rhogam shot.  Then I'm on every 2w for appts!  How did I get so far along already?? 
     
    *What were your highlights and struggles this week?
    Probably working more on her nursery and the funny doppler thing at the OB :) 
     
    *QOTW: What was/is something you made sure to buy this time around that you didn't have with your first LO?
    More footed PJs in the NB size and 0-3.  It's pretty much all DD1 wore the first few months.

  • S, that is a funny story about the OB!

    *What is your EDD/how far along?

    I'm 12 weeks. Time is flying!

    *How have you been feeling/doing?

    Pretty good. Just tired. The nausea is much improved, though I am still not all that hungry come dinnertime.

    *Any appointments or milestones?

    I had to reschedule my NT, which was supposed to be today (vent below). So that is now Tuesday. I realize that I don't have another appt at the OB set up. I need to do that.

    *What were your highlights and struggles this week?

    Highlights - successfully fingding LO's heartbeat on the doppler! Yay!

    Struggles - just the continual struggle of realizing we have a tiny house and how challenging it is going to be for DH and I to chase two LOs around in it, if we are so lucky. :) Andplusalso how having 2 toddlers at 42 and 44 is going to be a new type of exhausting. 

    *QOTW: What was/is something you made sure to buy this time around that you didn't have with your first LO?

    I have not bought anything yet, but I am going to get a RNP this time. I also need to get clothes, since we gave everything NB-12 month size away convinced that we were one and done. Oops.

  • EDD 10/5 but I will have a c/s late September most likely.

     

    I am almost 10 weeks and I feel like poop from 2:00 pm until bed. Sometimes randomly or all day.

     

    My u/s is tomorrow!

    We might tell our parents this weekend lol.

    I haven't thought about buying stuff yet.

  • Whoa, I'm the top of the list. And have had like no time to check in lately. Bummer, b/c I enjoy it.

     

    *What is your EDD/how far along? 36+ weeks.
     
    *How have you been feeling/doing? Rotten but hopefully I will be a LOT better after my biggest event of the year for work is over next week. Really hoping to make it to the end and then have time to get things better set for this LO to arrive. I'm not a last-minute person so this is driving me a bit nuts. And is the reason I've been so MIA.
     
    *Any appointments or milestones? 36 week appt. today.
     
    *What were your highlights and struggles this week? See above. I'm really struggling with work eating up so much of my last bit of time to prepare for this LO. Long story.
     
    *QOTW: What was/is something you made sure to buy this time around that you didn't have with your first LO?
     
    Not too much, really. I did get a Baby Bjorn from a friend of a friend for $20 so I'm pumped about that. Thankfully (and hopefully, lol) it's another girl so we didn't have to do much with the room. We just needed to move DD.
