How are you feeling?
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend?
Re: *Friday* Ticker Change
Week/fruit/EDD: 24 weeks/canteloupe/July 25
Team: Blue
Updates: We had a growth u/s on Monday and everything looked good. Doctor found a mild amount of fluid in baby boy's kidney but said it was normal especially for boys and would likely resolve itself. I go back in another 4 weeks to check. I am glad they are staying on top of things but I'm almost finding it weird that I'm getting u/s as often as I have regular check-ups. It's the MFM office and not my OB that is scheduling them.
How are you feeling? Except for the fact that I may never eat Nutella again after vomiting it up last night, pretty good.
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? We may take DS on an Easter egg hunt depending on the weather. Other than that, not much else going on!
Week/fruit/EDD: 6 weeks/Sweet Pea/ November 28th
Team: Finding out!
Updates: Had an US yesterday & got to see/hear Sprout's HB! It was amazing! HB was 115bpm. Next US is next Thursday.
How are you feeling? Tired, Sore Boobs, Waves of Nausea, Food Aversions, Smelling Everything
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? I have a dance competition with my team. It will be two very long, crazy & fun days with my kiddos. We are taking 87 dances to this one. No one knows I'm pregnant except for 3 of my teachers & my best friend so it'll be interesting.
Femara + Gonal F + Ovidrel 3/6/14 IUI #3 (plus 2x acupuncture)
Team Pink!!
ALL ARE WELCOME
Newbie here! I came over from TTCAL last week.
Week/fruit/EDD: 5, appleseed, Dec. 5
Team: Green
Updates: Got betas this week! 1352 at 18dpo and 2689 at 20dpo. This is much higher than anything I had with my losses, so I'm feeling good about that.
How are you feeling? Still feeling anxious. I have an U/S scheduled for April 16 and really hoping to see a heartbeat.
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? I need to get some editing time in on my next book (I'm a novelist). My revisions aren't due to my editor until August, but I need to get a move on because she suggested a LOT of changes.
Week/fruit/EDD: 20 (half baked!)/banana/August 22
Team: Boy
Updates: I honestly can't even believe that half baked is here. I've missed a couple of these (sorry!). A couple of weeks ago was our A/S, BabyPants looked great (still measuring ahead, the overachiever). I have a low lying placenta (not previa) that they did not seem terribly worried about and will likely resolve on its own. I'll get another peek at him in 8 weeks to re-evaluate. I signed up for birth classes last week. Shit is getting real!
How are you feeling? Feeling pretty good, although feeling terribly out of shape. Long, easy walks are tiring me out lately. Yesterday's left me wondering how I used to run 4 miles every day. 4 miles feels like a marathon.
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? We finally got my fiance's house on the market, which has taken every waking spare moment, so this is the first real weekend we will have together in the last three months that he doesn't have to work or we don't have to do house stuff. Really looking forward to it. Hoping to making some headway on a registry . . .

My Ovulation Chart Fruit
Week/fruit/EDD: 22 weeks, papaya, 8/8/14
Team: Blue
Updates: Just plugging along. I don't have another check-up until mid-April.
I bought a book about helping babies with sleep, so I think I will be cracking that open sooner than later!
Baby boy woke me up at 4 a.m. today, kicking and moving around like crazy! I am really hoping that's not a sign of things to come after he's born.
How are you feeling? Feeling good. I had a tiny bit of cramping yesterday that freaked me out a little, but I upped my water intake and that seemed to help.
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? My 12-year-old nephew has a baseball tournament in our part of town, so we'll go to watch one of his games tomorrow. He's a good pitcher, so it's fun to watch. Other than that, not much.
January PAL siggie challenge; Good advice:
Week/fruit/EDD: 31/Pineapple/June 6th
Team: Blue
Updates: Had my 31 week appointment today - have low BP so doctor told me to slow down and try not to move too fast, especially moving from a seated or crouched position. Unless of course I would like to end up flat on the floor. Ha.
How are you feeling? Pretty decent. A couple dizzy spells here and there, but those have been attributed to the low BP. Baby has had some crazy movements in the evenings this week. I just wish he would flop himself around because the kicks straight down do not feel the best!
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? Nothing planned. We just got 10" of heavy, wet snow last night so I am hoping that it melts soon so we can spend sometime outside one of these weekends. Maybe one more forced weekend indoors is what will finally give me some motivation to work on the nursery.
@MsAmandaPants - congrats on being half-baked!
@Qfrump - Did you register at BRU? They had a deal where anything purchased from your registry will get you 10% back in a BRU gift card after your due date. The store had us create one for the things we were buying ourselves so we could get the kickback.
@LeaLupins - FX that the fluid issue resolves on its own by your next scan!
@LeaLupins - Thanks for the good wishes! I have to say that's how I felt after I vomited up tomato basil mozzarella. So sad. I still haven't recovered and that was first tri.
Week/fruit/EDD: Today. Come on, baby!
Team: Lady
Updates: No baby is my update. Grrr. Scheduled my induction for next week if this person continues to stay put.
How are you feeling? Feeling good, just impatient.
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? Hopefully having a baby, but other than that - no fun plans, sadly enough.

My Ovulation Chart
Week/fruit/EDD: 18/sweet potatoe/ 9.5.14
Team:Blue!
Updates: Not much really....I think I'm startign to feel some movement. But I'm not 100% sure. I have an anterior placenta so I know it can take longer to start feeling movement.
How are you feeling? Really tired all the time still. And an achy back some days. But other than that I feel great.
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? Working on Saturday and thats all I have planned
BFP# 2 3/9/13: EDD 11/12/13 m/c 3/15/13 @ 5w3d
RPL testing shows one copy of MTHFR gene mutation.
My rainbow baby Isaac has arrived!
So excited to be number 2 on the list!
Week/fruit/EDD: 38w3d/pumpkin/April 18
Team: PINK
Updates: Still just waiting on baby, no change in progress at my appt. on Friday. Also a little bummed bc they are having me skip my 39 w appt. and just come in for the 40 wk appt. on the 17th. But we did schedule an induction for the 21st so it is nice to have an end date in site.
How are you feeling? Feeling large, extremely tired but with bursts of energy here and there and just overall a little cranky. Hope baby feels ready to go sometime soon. I have been trying to help her along with walking, sex, evening primrose oil and red raspberry leaf tea. Also, just bought some pineapples (fingers crossed).
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? Well the weekend has already passed and I just vegged out on the couch and I don't regret it.
Week/fruit/EDD: 22 Weeks/ Papaya/ 8.8.14
Team: PINK!!
Updates: Anatomy scan was today. Everything looked perfectly healthy and baby girl is measuring in the 94th percentile for her estimated weight already!! Doctor said at this rate I'll probably be looking at an 8 1/2 pound baby.
How are you feeling? Serious back aches and round ligament pain, but other than that I'm feeling pretty good!
QOTW: Any fun plans for this weekend? No
I work all weekend.
And now to introduce.. Little Miss Charlotte Grace
