huskermama · September 2013

. How many weeks? 21

2. Any updates? A/S? Etc? Thursday is the big reveal...can't wait to find out if we are team blue or team pink!

3. Have you had any different food cravings this time? Not really that I can think of...early on I was craving dairy and had major aversion to fruits, veggies, and meats, but nothing that I really have to have these days.

4. QOTW: What are your Halloween plans? We will take DD to a local children's museum to trick-or-treat one night (it is their biggest fundraiser) and then take her out around the neighborhood on Halloween night. Other than that we don't do much. Never been a big fan of the holiday, even when I was little. I am however, already pumped for Christmas...too soon?!?

Hi! I'd love to be added, but I'm not sure if it's too early.

1. I'm only 7 w 1 d today, due May 5th, cinco de mayo!

2. No major updates other than dealing with my SCH. I have been on bed rest since last Friday and I have another ultrasound to see if it has helped with shrinking the bleed. I haven't had any bleeding, so I'm thankful for that.

3. No real cravings. What sounds/tastes good one day is completely nauseating the next. The only thing I could stomach for dinner last night was tater tots.. and man did they taste good!

4. DD is excited to dress up but is starting to notice the "scary" things about Halloween. Displays in Target and other stores freezes her up, poor thing! We recently moved so it'll be our first Halloween in this area. Not quite sure what the vibe is here, so we'll try it out and see how it goes. @huskermama, I'm with you! Bring on Christmas!

1. I'm 22 weeks today and baby is kicking away which I love! 2. Posted a long separate post about a trip to L&D last night but we are doing fine 3. Craving- apple juice one day last week and gummy worms- though I've always had a sweet tooth 4. Not sure but I think our friends who are expecting in December are planning a party. I will have to think about a good preggo costume! We also moved into a new neighborhood and are expecting lots of trick or treaters which I'm so excited about!!

Yeah for a fellow Christmas lover! Also, I noticed you were due on cinco de mayo. That is the day we had our last IUI that resulted in this pg....must be a good day for babies!

tryingyetagain · September 2013

1. How many weeks? 8 weeks now. Due date was adjusted to 4/26.

2. Any updates? A/S? Etc? We had our 8 week appointment Friday, and baby's heart rate was 176. Woohoo! Still so amazing to me to finally see a thriving baby in there. We were referred to a genetic counselor based on loss history and age, and counselor had us start with chromosomal testing for DH and I, which we did yesterday (results in 2 weeks). She was appalled that my RE had not ordered that immediately based on our history, which was validating since I knew he was not doing everything for us he should have been.

3. Have you had any different food cravings this time? Mostly, I'm just having aversions. Nothing sounds good, and I'm tired of forcing myself to eat. When I eat, it's whatever I can stomach at that moment. Mashed potatoes, shepherd's pie, and couscous/spinach are the weirdest things I've had so far for breakfast. I have craved icee's and Taco Bell at times (really healthy, right?), but that's about all.

4. QOTW: What are your Halloween plans? We go to the local corn maze every year around Halloween. And DH, DS, and I all three carve separate pumpkins each year, which we always have fun with. Mostly, I will be celebrating the end to morning sickness hopefully by then!

rcnavywife · September 2013

1. How many weeks? 13 weeks
2. Any updates? A/S? Etc? Spent a couple days in the ER last week due to bleeding. So relieved to see 3 healthy, wiggling babies. On modified bedrest and my OB pulled me from work yesterday. Much earlier than planned, but will do whatever it takes to keep these babies growing!
3. Have you had any different food cravings this time? No real cravings, still mostly food aversions, especially to meat.
4. QOTW: What are your Halloween plans? Not much. Trick or treating for DS but I will probably have to send him with one of my parents.

I am 22 weeks tomorrow. We had our anatomy scan which was ok. Today I had my cardio ultrasound and it did not go well. Not because the baby was not ok, but the machine they were using was new and no one can operate it. So after 1 hour and not real pictures of the heart I have to go back. I was like a lab rat testing the machine.

I have my usual ultrasound with MFM scheduled and OB for early Oct.

My dd will be lady bug for Halloween and I look forward to going out with her for candy. I did not grow up here, so I had no Halloween, so I like to live thru her for this holiday.

Food cravings- A lot of pickles. We buy a jar a week. Also a lot of potatoes. Nothing too crazy.

jeannaqueena · September 2013

1. How many weeks? 36!!!!!OMG OMG!!! 2. Any updates? A/S? Etc? 2 weeks in a row at 1 cm, belly measuring right on track 3. Have you had any different food cravings this time? Not allowed to have cravings as this GD diet won't let me ! Tho a brownie is what I have requested at the hospital. 4. QOTW: What are your Halloween plans? Hopefully someone will take my DS to a touch a truck or trunk or treat. My moms group has a play date scheduled with a clown!! I am hoping it will be one of the first successful ventures out of the house with 2 kiddos!!! ahhhhh I am having this baby!!! Bathroom update: Tile is installed and grout in the morning!!!

kimberm0511 · September 2013

1. 25 wks!

2. Next scheduled appt is next week and I will have the GD test. Getting a little nervous! On another note, I did it! I ordered cribs! I really didn't want to, but I'm working towards getting over the "what ifs" and just trying to focus on the present. I sooo want to enjoy these last few months instead of worry! So yay for me!

3. KK..I am with you on the cheeseburgers and rootbeer! I'm also craving sweet tea, but only indulge once or twice a week since I am trying to avoid caffeine.

4. I'm going to take a wild guess that there is no way I will be waddling through the neighborhood trick or treating...so maybe I'll send my boys off with a friend or see if dh will take them. I'm not a fan of Halloween either, I completely agree with huskermama. Bring on Christmas! I can't wait! (Thanksgiving is alright too).

hopingforbaby2 · September 2013

1. How many weeks?

29 weeks!

2. Any updates? A/S? Etc?

No updates. Going for another growth sono at the end of the month.

3. Have you had any different food cravings this time?

Yes! Bagels with cream cheese and chocolate chip cookies.

4. QOTW: What are your Halloween plans?

Our local library is having a halloween craft/story during the day so we'll probably do that and then around 3pm head out trick or treating with our friends and their kids!
