Re: ~:TTGP Grad Check In:~
Hey I'm early! I haven't checked in for a couple of weeks even though I stalk every week
Here is me this morning in my typical work bathroom shot:
I will be 23 weeks this week and I'm really feeling great. I have been feeling the baby moving more lately and I love it! We are also making some serious progress on the nursery. When it's done I'll share some pics with you. The next few weeks DH and I are focusing on crossing things off the to-do list around the house. My urges to organize and clean are crazy these days!
I hope everyone else is doing well. I can't wait to see some babies and bumps today!
I keep lurking TTGP and praying for those BFPs!
Baby girl #1 7/11/13
Baby girl #2 4/30/15
Baby Boy Due 2/16/19!
Allison will be 8w old on Saturday and is doing great. If social smiling was a career, she'd be set. She also loves sitting and being talked to, and having her bib put on.
We are leaving tomorrow to go to Chicago for a week, I hope she flies well because it'll be just me with her.
I miss you all! Still stalking like a mofo.
No real update, no bump. Looking forward to my first appointment April 8. They said they will do the first US then. So excited! GL TTGP!

Other than that...I am sick of being sick...no puking, just feeling likea bag of crap. Honest to goodness. Plugging along.

17 weeks today. We find out if baby is a boy or girl tomorrow. I'm DYING WITH EXCITEMENT SHOUTY CAPS! Miss my TTGP bishes!
I just love that little squishy face!
I will be totally stalking you tomorrow! I hope your LO cooperates and gives you the money shot
Good morning girls. I haven't checked in for awhile. Things around my house/life have been pretty crazy!! But all is well in our baby camp. Taylor is growing up fast and furious and boy is he on the move. He loves to walk holding on to your fingers or walking with his little activity walker. Pulls up on everything, loves big boy baths (obviously from the picture...ehhehehe) and is really starting to come into his personality. He gives kisses and hugs, waves bye bye and is overall the light of my life. I love that little boy so much. I can't believe he will be 9 months old in a few days. Breaks my heart....he is growing too fast. But hey, we are having fun along the way!! Here is a picture I took of him last night in the tub....such a cutie!!
As always, I'm rooting for you TTGP'ers, and congrats to all the new BFP'ers out there. Enjoy the ride ladies!!
TTC since August 2011, Me = 40, DH = 38

Erin- baby movement is such a neat feeling! GL getting the things done around the house.
Shay- FX that Allison is an easy flier! Seriously, she gets more beautiful every week!
gardennymph- YAY! Congratulations on your BFP! I'm so excited for you!
Miss_2010- Hope you feel better soon. 1st Tri is almost over, FX that the m/s will subside.
kristykay- I still love that you're KTFU! Hope your a/s goes well and that you get a great shot of the goods!
Babybear- Tyler is adorable! I love his "why are you interrupting my bath for a photo op?" face!
FX and GL to all of TTGP!
AFM:
All is going well here. I have my shower on Saturday! I've already had some things ordered online and delivered. Thankfully I'm able to get the Thank Yous out quickly at the moment. FX that there will be some pictures from the shower that I can share. Other than that, breathing space has started to become limited and I'm feeling it with LO is stretching out. I also have only about a month and a half of work left! Time seems to fly right now.
Check out my Team Green baby names! P.S. I'm not serious with any of the names

I'm totally for naming LO Bruce Wayne (as long as LO is a boy)... DH on the other hand isn't keen on it. So, we may have to compromise on a different name.

Hi Ladies!
I am now 26 weeks and baby is supposed to be the size of a head of lettuce. How do they come up with these things? I was having really bad lower abdominal pain last week that brought on the water works. I called L&D and they told me to relax and rest and if it didn't get better to come in. Well, it got better. I think I am just working too hard (6 days a week).
I have a Dr. Appt today and we are getting our 3D ultrasound at the end of the week, so I should have a nice picture for next check-in. My mom bought our baby furniture for us! We bought a house also and we are just waiting for escrow to close so we can finally move out of this apartment.
Good luck TTGP!! :-)
Desmond is 3 months old and growing so big. He has already outgrown all of the 3 month clothing. He loves smiling, chewing on his hands (see pic below), and going for walks in the neighborhood.
Here's my little sock monkey:
Rooting for you TTGP!!
Oh hai... is this real life?
I'm excited to be here! I am doing well and am coming to the end of my 4th week.
Bloated as heck already and have my 6 week u/s on the 22nd! That's 10 days... but who's counting?
Rooting for you all!!!

I took this picture in a rush, this was from last week (28 weeks 3 days) I'll be 30 weeks on Saturday, I can't believe how fast time is flying. My shower invites went out and it will be on the 20th of April. Baby loves to use my bladder as a trampoline, I feel like she is ready to escape lol.

I am 15 weeks tomorrow and we are....
TEAM PINK!!!
I had an amazing elective u/s at my OB's office on Saturday morning and we got to spend a lot of time with our little girl. At first she didn't want to show the goods but we finally got to see that she definitely is a girl. The tech was awesome and we found out that she is the tech that does the level 2 u/s, so once we told her we had to get that (for our elevated risk of Down's), she started taking a really close look at the baby and was able to knock out a few of the markers that they'd be looking for later. She said that while there were still a few things that had to be checked later (u/s is at almost 19 weeks), that everything look great so far. Our little girl was super playful during the u/s and it looked like she was trying SO HARD to suck her thumb but couldn't quite figure out how to get it in her mouth! Then she got the hiccups and that was the end of that. Watching her have the hiccups was so cute!!
We got 10 pics from the u/s and here are some of the best... hopefully this isn't too small to really see:
Now time to go back and see everyone's updates!
Not much new here with me, I will be 7 weeks tomorrow, and have my first u/s a week from tomorrow, feels like it's taking forever!
My symptoms come and go, but are definitely still there, morning sickness hits off and on throughout the day now. I just can't wait for my u/s next week to hopefully see everything is fine, and I will relax some.
I keep lurking and rooting for everyone!
Thanks! I'm not positive but around 11/14/13

Ahh...I love seeing everyone here! Well, Mackenzie is 5 weeks already...where does the freaking time go?? She is up to 6lbs and 14oz which is still a slow gain, but the Dr is happy so far. I've been cooped up inside this whole time so I am excited to get out of the house with her at 6 weeks. (Dr didn't want her out in public until 6 weeks...trying at all costs to avoid cold/flu season with her being a preemie.)
Now I have to run back and read all the happy posts!

I'm 11 weeks today. I have a appointment next week and if I hear the heartbeat at that, I think we will start telling family. I kind of want to wait a little longer and incorporate Easter or my parents anniversary (which is a few days after easter; I'd be 14 weeks exactly), but I don't see that happening.
I'm still so ready to stop progesterone. One more week hopefully. I know I'm nervous about it, but it will be okay.
Appetite is getting better. Not much, but I'm eating a little more. I'm still at my pre-pregnancy weight. I was surprised I hadn't lost weight this last week because...
I unexpectedly lost my job the other day. I am beyond stressed. I'm trying to calm down for the baby's sake, but I'm not doing so well. Then of course I worry the stress is harming it or something.
My last 2 jobs have fallen in my lap so I haven't had to job search in 9 years. It's overwhelming. I'm trying to track down transcripts from the colleges I graduated and figure out what I want to do. Luckily they said they would pay me through the end of the month.

lol we're doing what your husband's mom did, what you told me in the email... Shhhh
I totally thought of you!
Boop
Leila is 3.5 months now, and is super awesome! She is sleeping through the night, napping well during the day, and is generally a happy baby. We are working on rolling over, but she isn't liking it very much. She is a chatterbox, and I love every minute of it! She is getting so big, and it is making me sad.... Here she is yesterday, hanging out on the couch, waiting for daddy to get home.
Hey y'all! This may be a P&R, so I'm going to check back later and comment on everyone's pics!
I haven't checked in for a few weeks. Connor turns 7m tomorrow. Holy crap. I'm actualy having a really hard time accepting this Monthday, more than any others. I'm not sure why. He's doing great, but is going to be getting a little extra help since he is a little behind (since he was a preemie). He had his first physical therapy appointment today and he has an evaluation with early intervention (services through the state) tomorrow. He has his helmet for a slight flat spot and is doing amazing with it. His head has improved already.
Here is a preview of one of his 7m photos. I'm going to try and retake them tonight because he was NOT giving up a smile at all.
And here his is with his helmet
I still lurk a ton and post occassionally. I am so happy for a few of the recent BFPs and still am cheering so many of you on behind the scenes!
Holy crap she's adorable.
Thanks, Sully!
