We haven't had one in awhile! I'm not promising that I can keep this up every week, but I wanted to revive these. If someone else wants to take these over, feel free :-)
I pulled this due date list off the 10/2 HDBD and I'm sure it needs to be updated. Let me know if you need to be added.

Anatomy scan is this Sunday!! I plan on going shopping afterwards to buy something for the bebe.
I'm not feeling as sick and tired as before, so I guess that's something to brag about, hehe.
I think it really depends on how the shower is done. I think I'm ok with small subsequent showers, but large showers sometimes come off gift-grabby to me. My sister offered to throw one for bebe #2 and DH and I really had to think long and hard about it. We're waiting to see if she will offer again (she offered as soon as we told her we were pregnant). If she does offer again, I think we'll agree to something small, but we won't register.
34 weeks 1 day (how am I 3rd on the list?!?!? It is going by too fast)
Team Pink
We started painting the nursery today. It needs one more coat and then it will be ready for the furniture which should be here next week sometime(I hope). I feel like we still have so much to do but thankfully DH is on vacation this week and said that by the end of the week the house will look totally different and we will be a bit more ready for this little lady to arrive.
My mom asked me about having a small get together with family and close friends. Not a shower but a sprinkle I guess. I told her to make sure everyone knows that they are not required to bring a gift. It is just a chance for everyone to celebrate the little girl that will be joining us soon.
No a/s date yet but should be early Dec. I think we decided to find out. Initially I was thinking maybe team green but I really, really want to know.
I've felt a few flutters but nothing consistent. Honestly if I didn't already have two kids I'd have thought it was gas, lol.
I'm not that into 2nd showers/sprinkles. That said, long as they aren't big and showy I'm ok with them. IME if people are going to buy a gift they will, shower or not. We didn't have a sprinkle or anything for G but lots of people still gave gifts. I'd rather have a get together after baby is here.
We have our 20 wk appointment 11/19 to find out the gender! Our Doctor offers an elective ultrasound ($50) for a "sneak peak", since I won't have my a/s until closer to 22 weeks. So excited!!
I've felt a little movement, not every day...but I started to feel it around 15 weeks. Like Serendipity, if it wasn't baby #2, I'd surely think it was gas I also have energy most days, which is amazing!
I don't mind small "showers" or "sprinkles" for 2nd, 3rd babies. I would be happy to attend if someone wanted to throw one, but I certainly wouldn't expect it! I would never go as far as to register for a 2nd baby, either!
Sorry, already in my awesome PJs of DHs tshirt and old sweatpants I'll try to post a bump pic next time!

Boy, Girl, or Team Green? U/S date? None of the above yet. I think our 20 week will be in February
Milestones/ questions/ vents? Just happy to be here at this point!
QOTW: How do you feel about baby showers/sprinkles for 2nd/3rd/etc. babies? It's really common around here so I don't have a problem with it. I view it as a way of welcoming the newest addition.
Boy, Girl, or Team Green? U/S date? U/S is scheduled for Dec 26th and we will be finding out.
Milestones/ questions/ vents? I felt the baby move yesterday. It seems really early but it was definitely movement.
QOTW: How do you feel about baby showers/sprinkles for 2nd/3rd/etc. babies? Maybe a sprinkle of meet the baby party, but I don't really like the idea of baby showers for the 2nd or 3rd kid if the older child is still fairly young. My sister is due 2 weeks after me this time, so it would be nice to have a little family get together/sprinkle. Too bad we live 2 hours apart. We need to figure something out.
How many weeks are you? 1/2 Baked....20 weeks today!
Boy, Girl, or Team Green? U/S date? We find out in 10 days on Nov. 18 what we are having!
Milestones/ questions/ vents? 1/2 mark!

I think if they are initiated by somebody else then fine, but the mom should request it. I actually get somewhat annoyed when people go very gender specific for their first even though they plan on having more kids and then expect people to buy new stuff for them if they have the opposite sex the 2nd time around.
I'm here! I had my little boy October 24th, via RCS. I've been busy since then with my new LO (and my big one!) and lurking on my other BMB. I've missed you ladies! I'll try to be on more and I will try to post a birth story post when I have more time, but here is a pic of the new LO in the meantime. We named him Matthew.
