  Hello 3T ladies!

  I just updated in the family reunion thread so I will keep this brief.

  I reached V day this week! Woo hoo! I have my 1 hour glucose test on Monday which I am dreading. All of the nursery furniture has been put together and we are going to work on hanging the pictures on the wall this weekend. Making serious progress! 
  
  Here is a bump comparison between 15 weeks and 24 weeks!  Getting more and more noticeable! 

  

  QOTW:  I think my favorite thing so far has been buying the fun onesies.  I figure we will get lots of cute girly stuff at showers but I have bought some funny onesies when I see them.  this is one of my favorites.

  Hi 3T!  I am lurking the check ins and love titting like mad, fx for you ladies!!!

  
  

  I'm 13w today, I kind of can't believe it.  I met my OB last week and I go for my first tri screening tomorrow.  I am praying all looks good.  I am excited to see the babies again!  I've had some pretty bad back pain this week, but I was also at a tradeshow on my feet for days on end, so there's that.  Otherwise, not much to complain about.

  
  

  QOTW: I think it's finally just starting to really sink in for H & me.  We just talked last night about how we haven't bought anything for the babies yet, I think we were just too nervous for a while.  I did however score a free diaper bag yesterday which I'm stoked about!

  Hello lovely ladies! I stalk you all often!

  
  

  I am 17w2d with our twins! We are having a girl and not sure what the other one is yet because it decided to curl up in a ball. Everything is going well and I'm having a really uneventful pregnancy, knock on wood!

  
  

  QOTW: The only thing we have bought so far are the car seats, which are in storage so I don't have to see them. I haven't bought anything yet other than those because they were a steal and I couldn't pass it up. I'm still too nervous to start buying cute outfits and such. I am looking forward to getting their "going home" outfits once we know both of the genders, so hopefully I can get myself to buy them when the time comes.

  Hi ladies!! This is my first grad check in, I can't believe it!! I'm 5w1d today. I'm not having many symptoms yet luckily. We still haven't wrapped our heads around the fact that I'm actually pregnant. I think it won't feel real until my first ultrasound in 2 weeks. We are currently on vacation with my whole family for the week and it is SO hard to keep it a secret.
  We haven't gotten anything yet but I am most looking forward to the baby clothes! So excited for those adorable little outfits (and I'm sure my cats will be excited that we will have someone else to keep us busy in that department haha).

  Hey ladies,
  
  I also updated my info in the Reunion post but for those of you who didn't read it. I am 34 weeks this week. LO is moving like crazy, so much so that at our doctor's appt yesterday it wouldn't stop moving so we could get a heartbeat. The doctor said "well I know it has a heartbeat because its moving so much but I just need it to stop for a moment." It finally did and everything was fine. I have my growth ultrasound next week and I am excited to see how big it is.
  
  I lurk often and am rooting for all of you! Lots of hugs to those that need them! Hope to see you soon on PAIF!

  Hi ladies!! I just updated in the Family Reunion Thread (like most others) so I'll keep this short! I'll be 28 weeks tomorrow! Hard to believe that it's third tri already! I have an appointment tomorrow to check my placenta placement. If it's still low, they are going to go ahead and put me on the schedule for a C-section at 39 weeks, but they will keep checking it up until that point in case it decides it wants to move (FX it does!) We are in the middle of a major kitchen renovation - we knocked down walls, are redoing are entire hardwood floor, getting new cabinets, etc. so I'm totally freaking out! haha! The nursery has been put on the back burner for now until the kitchen is finished, but at least we have the crib, glider and changing table/dresser set up and ready to go. Which leads me to the QOTW - favorite thing is definitely the glider! It's gotten its fair share of use already because it's one of the few places I can get comfortable at night!

  Hey guys (again!)!  I think that my only update since the family reunion is that I had my glucose test last week and am pretty sure that I passed! I say pretty sure because my dr said that they'd get results Mon or Tues and no news meant that everything was fine. I'm going to call today to make sure but hopefully I'm good :-)  My next appointment is in 2 weeks and at that point I'm on the biweekly appointment schedule.

  QOTW- I have 2.  The first is the swing, because I got an awesome deal at a consignment sale.  The second is the diaper bag, which I just ordered, because it's so freaking cute, purple (my favorite color), and will make an awesome travel tote eventually.

  I was thinking about the family reunion and how several people commented about the difference between 3T and PAIF/BMBs.  It's so true, the connections that people make on this board are just completely different and I still check on you all just as often as I check my BMB/PAIF/PGAL.  I was so glad to be able to reconnect.  I don't comment on posts anymore because of my ticker and team green image, but I still read and love when appropriate :-)  Hope everyone has a great weekend!

  My friend's husband made the mistake of telling her that she looked like a manatee when trying to flop her big belly out of bed. I believe he spent a night on the couch ;-)
  

  Nothing resembling passive aggressive at my house. I'd just whack him.

  She was direct - she yelled at him and told him he wasn't welcome in bed with a manatee (as he backtracked and swore he meant she was a cute manatee haha).
  

  Fair enough.
