    What are you craving? Ice cream, turkey sandwiches, and fruit.

    QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with?

    This is a tough one, but I'll go with Robin from How I Met Your Mother.

  • noonandj04 - How was your ultrasound last week? Congrats on passing that milestone. How are you feeling?
    My ultrasound was so wonderful! It was a really happy moment for DH and I. Everything is looking great in there so I'm feeling really hopeful about everything, and less scared overall. :)

    EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 10 weeks/Prune

    Appts/ Updates? Tomorrow afternoon I have my first appointment with my actual OB. We should be able to hear the heartbeat at this one, but I was told by the u/s tech that I have a tilted uterus, so it's also possible I won't hear it this early and not to be alarmed if that's the case. We shall see!

    How are you feeling? Just fine! It's strange and sometimes unsettling, but my symptoms have really taken a hike. My nausea is pretty much gone!

    What are you craving? Chicken McNuggets!

    QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with? Ooo, this is a tough one. Either Liz Lemon from 30Rock or Jess from New Girl.

    Thanks for running the check-in, SuperKim :) Yay, for lots of baby kicks!!

    lv2011 - Congrats on the new car - that's so exciting! You might want to keep that old TV awhile longer so that you're accustomed to high pitched whining sounds! (-; How was your week?  The week was okay, the weekend was a little rough. We hit our loss anniversary Saturday and as happy and grateful as I am for this baby that's coming, I miss and mourn the one that would have been. DH and DD did a great job of trying to keep my mind off all that, and it just makes me love them so much more.

    EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 32 weeks/ squash

    Appts/ Updates? We're in bi-weekly appointment territory, so the next one is next Monday, same day as our first childbirth class. I'm super excited for that, mostly to see DH's reaction to all the info ;)

    How are you feeling? Pretty much just tired and achy, although some of the achy is my own fault for falling on the stairs the other day.

    What are you craving? Nothing in particular, but random things at random times. I will say that Dairy Queen blizzards rank high on my "want" list.

    QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with? Because I love the book and read it at least once a year, I'm going to say Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice.

    ***** All  AL  Welcome *****

     

  • EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 5/5 - 34 - Butternut squash according to TB, Watermelon according to my lilypie ticker. 

    Appts/ Updates?  Baby did much better at my NST this past Friday than he did at the first one.  The first one I was hooked up for an hour before the doctor was happy, this time was 20 minutes.  Another BPP scheduled for tomorrow.  I'm not getting good 3D pics of his face anymore because he's running out of room!  My poor little guy is so squished in there.  I love my U/S tech though and she always makes attempts to get a good shot of his face for me. 

    How are you feeling? My cold is finally gone!  Still a little stuffy but I feel so much better.  I'm very tired though and really trying to take everything slow, because when I don't my BH's come on pretty strong. 

    What are you craving?  More ice cream lately, I find that it really soothes my stomach and helps temporarily with the heartburn. 

    QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with?  Ooooh this is a tough one!  I LOVE Olivia Benson on Law & Order SVU, so I'm going with her.

    Hello everyone, I hope you had a great weekend! My son is much better and keeping me very busy again :)

    EDD/How many weeks/Fruit?22 weeks, papaya?

    Appts/ Updates? Next week, the 9th, just a regular check-up.

    How are you feeling? Good, hungry all the time. A bit of Pgal brain since I don't feel the baby moving at all most of the time. I called the doctor and he said is ok until week 24-26 and I should feel constant movements by that time. I hope so because I am getting a bit worried.

    What are you craving? Ice cream, watermelon and blue cheese, tons of blue cheese.

    QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with?  Probably Chris Mccandles from "Into The Wild". I love nature, and I share some of his ideas. Also I totally agree with what he wrote: "Happiness is only real when shared"  :)

  •  songbirdsinging55 - Welcome to the check-in! I had a meat aversion during the first trimester, too. How did you tell your DH/SO the good news?
    Hi! Thank you, the meat aversions have been trying.

     I wish I had a romantic story about how I told him but the truth is, I was in the bathroom on the phone with my Nana when I saw the test result. It was so funny because it was the last thing I expected and I was just talking about party plans with her. I looked down and BFP! I stopped talking and started crying. She had no idea why I was crying, offcourse I told her.  DH overheard me crying (happy tears) and he walks into the bathroom and goes"baby are you crying? Is everything okay?"  I am standing in the bathroom staring at the stick and I just hold out the stick to him and and calmly say "we're pregnant". His face was priceless. Then he threw his hands in the air and screams "yayyyyyy! We did it!!" He is adorable.

  • EDD/How many weeks/Fruit?  Oct 27th, 10 weeks, Kumquat

    Appts/ Updates? 12 week regular check up in a few weeks. No u/s which I was hoping we would get to see the bean again and know that everything is 100% okay.

    How are you feeling?  Tired but elated. It just feels so surreal and I can't believe how well everything is going. I have had some stretching pains and heartburn lately but it's a relief to have symptoms. I also have the bloat going on so none of my jeans fit right now.

    What are you craving? Watermelon, salads and baby carrots with ranch

    QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with? I feel like I could be BFF with Jess from new girl because we are similiar in a lot of aspects. Also Claire from The Time Traveler's Wife because she is an artist. Honestly the actress too because I feel like Rachael Mcadams is awesome.

    Are you having an NT scan at all?  I know that not everyone has them and not all OBs do them.  They might check on the LO with the doppler at your appointment.

    Also, I think your story about telling DH is romantic!

    I had elected not NT scan but I am having second thoughts. I am wondering if it is better to know so I can better prepare for when LO arrives.

  • EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 38 weeks, pumpkin

    Appts/ Updates? No updates today. I have an appointment tomorrow. My Dr. will check me again and may strip my membranes to see if we can get things going.

    How are you feeling? Honestly, I'm a little annoyed that I still have an inside baby! After he threatened to come early at 34 weeks I was happy to keep him in a couple more weeks, but now I've been dilated at 4 cm for 2 weeks and having irregular contractions for that long too. I'm just frustrated, over it and want him to come before DH has to leave town on Thursday! I'm so sore and tired at this point that I'm just a useless lump on the couch anyway. :o)

    What are you craving? Candy bars. All of them.

    mandiroo – I am so excited for you!!! Are you and baby still hanging in there? I hope if you are, that the contractions aren't too bad! See Above. (I'd give anything for bad contractions right now if they'd put me in the hospital!)

    Hi ladies!  I hope everyone had a great week!  Superkim, how was your work trip last week?

    EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 5/19.  33 weeks/some weird fruit that I have never heard of before!

    Appts/ Updates?  No big updates this week.  34 week appointment next Tuesday!

    How are you feeling?  Big and sore, but otherwise doing ok.  This past weekend was Noel's EDD.  It is hard for me to not think about the what if's and what should have been's.  Yesterday, I organized a Walk of Remembrance for all the babies gone too soon.  It was a lot of work, but so worth it to meet other loss families and honor our angels.

    What are you craving?  Give me all the sweets!

    QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with?
    hmmm....this is really hard!  I will have to really think about this!

    It was great, thank you!  I was in San Diego which is an awesome city.  I ate really really well!

    (((HUGS)) for sweet Noel's EDD.  What a wonderful way to honor the memories of our lost angels.  You are amazing!

  • Are you having an NT scan at all?  I know that not everyone has them and not all OBs do them.  They might check on the LO with the doppler at your appointment.

    Also, I think your story about telling DH is romantic!


    I had elected not NT scan but I am having second thoughts. I am wondering if it is better to know so I can better prepare for when LO arrives.
    It's a personal decision, no right or wrong.

    EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 38 weeks, pumpkin

    Appts/ Updates? No updates today. I have an appointment tomorrow. My Dr. will check me again and may strip my membranes to see if we can get things going.

    How are you feeling? Honestly, I'm a little annoyed that I still have an inside baby! After he threatened to come early at 34 weeks I was happy to keep him in a couple more weeks, but now I've been dilated at 4 cm for 2 weeks and having irregular contractions for that long too. I'm just frustrated, over it and want him to come before DH has to leave town on Thursday! I'm so sore and tired at this point that I'm just a useless lump on the couch anyway. :o)

    What are you craving? Candy bars. All of them.

    mandiroo – I am so excited for you!!! Are you and baby still hanging in there? I hope if you are, that the contractions aren't too bad! See Above. (I'd give anything for bad contractions right now if they'd put me in the hospital!)
    Cmon, babyroo!!!!  We want to meet you!!!  Spicy food!  Car ride down a bumpy road!  Sex! 

    I hope that your little guy is ready to come out soon.  Is your DH going to be far?  Will be be coming back for the birth in the unfortunate event that it's after Thursday?

Its scary we are heading to Bermuda and plan to aanounce it when we come back but i cant hide it no more lol... My promotions manager decided she needs to find her self so shes quitting beginning of May, this is stressful because shes the best assistant ever and summer is a busy season and i cannot be running around... Hopefully i can hire someone before May so i can go on materminity in October without a worry in the world. What are you craving? Hibachi, pizza, guava paste and cheese always cheese QOTW: What fictional character (TV, movie, book, etc) do you think you could be BFFs with? I agree with @SuperKim13‌ Robin from How i Met your Mother and the 2 girls from 2 broke girls lol... And an oldie but a goodie Carrie from Sex and the City and i would be BFFs definately Here is prove that im huge for 11 weeks i dont understand

    Thank you @superkim13 for running check-in! Where are you planning to register? I need to get on that, too! EDD/How many weeks/Fruit? 24w and a cantaloupe! Appts/ Updates?

    We are planning to register on Amazon and at either Target or BRU.  I'm not a big BRU fan, so I'd rather do Target, but their selection is much more limited.  What are you thinking?

    Good luck at the OB this week at next week's ultrasound!

    @SuperKim13‌, he has to leave town Thurs-Sat. for his sister's funeral and I'm so sad I can't go with him. It's a 4 1/2 hour drive from our house to LA, so not super far, but I just hope the timing works out so he doesn't have to worry about rushing back from that.

    With Izzie I registered at Target and BRU.  However, a BuyBuyBaby recently opened in my area.  And I hadn't thought of Amazon, but that is a really good idea.  How many registries is too many, lol?
