1. 10w1d

2. U/S Thurs 12/11 to check on SCB. We decided to tell DD this past weekend, as well as DH's family (my family already knew). My MIL peed her pants and my SIL cried so that was successful. I also told my boss yesterday and plan to tell my work team this week too, because our holiday party is this weekend and I'm tired of fake drinking ;-) I'll tell my close friends Friday. It feels so good to be almost "out".

3. I'm still very tired, but I'm sick a bit less this week.

4. We were Team Green with DD, loved it, and planned to be the same with any future LO's, but something about 2IF has made me consider finding out this time. I feel like I might want to know the sex to know who is in there sooner and make it more real. And since DD declared she only wants a brother (which could be the case with the trend on this check-in!) I feel like finding out may help her adjust and bond, too. We will see. We have 8-10 weeks to decide :-)

@steph1673

Oh & @sassfrass - May 12 is my birthday!!

Holy my how did I get to top of this list?!?!?! The it just got real guys. Luckily some other awesome 2if graduates who recently had or about to have their babies got me motivated and I feel ready as compared to DD.
29 weeks! AUGH!!! As prepared as I feel for having things ready it is still going by way to fast.
Appt next week, Friday then Saturday last of my 3D/4D package I won! Super excited to see what my little plotter and mischief man is doing!
Feeling tired and emotional. A vent felt like holidays since I finished shopping and wrapping back in November so decorated a lot today and our house looks a little like the North Pole leaked lol. I pushed to far with that and laundry and cleaning and Braxton hicks so trying to find halfway is hard. ADHD is very all or nothing at times with me (at all times off meds lol)
W DD I had so many dreams of. Little boy we left behind and came back for that I was sure w doing FET she was boy. This time I kept thinking girl, but it was boy! I'm awful at this game lmao!!!

1. How many weeks along are you?

18w2d

2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Today's appointment went great. The midwife just checked baby's position and listened to the HB on the doppler. She said that she thinks it is a boy, she has no scientific facts to back it up, its just her guess on the baby's sex. She is super sweet and makes me feel so comfortable! Now we are just twiddling our thumbs for our A/S in 2 weeks on the 24th!

We are anxious to find out the sex. This is DH's first and he is just over the top!

3. How are you feeling lately? much better, no complaints here. I got my flu shot today, and she did warn me of the possibility of feeling a lil yuck the next couple of days, but hopefully not.

4. QOTW: I'm noticing there is a lot of BLUE on this board! For those who already know the sex, did you have a feeling either way? For those who don't know, will you be finding out or team green? Have any strong feelings either way? I guess I kinda already answered this talking about our next appointment lol I really don't care what the sex is, I will be so happy either way!

6w3d

Next visit 12/17 - feeling like I'm in limbo until then.

Still not feeling great with the OHSS. Doctor said I still have too much fluid in my abdomen so he said no airplanes. So we had to cancel our annual trip to Florida to visit my dad. I was bummed but I'm praying this baby (babies) stick and it's all worth it in the end.

We will absolutely find out the sex of the baby. I am OCD like that - need to have everything planned. Especially if it's a boy since we only have girl clothes etc.

@hoppin747‌ praying for good news the 17th!!!

1. How many weeks along are you? 38w3d

2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? have my last appt. on Thursday and then RCS on Monday!

3. How are you feeling lately? my last day of work was sunday, so I have felt better the past 2 days not working. my job is somewhat physical and it was really wearing on me.

4. QOTW: I'm noticing there is a lot of BLUE on this board! For those who already know the sex, did you have a feeling either way? For those who don't know, will you be finding out or team green? Have any strong feelings either way? we are having a girl. I was honestly shocked when we found out. I always pictured myself as a "boy mom" and I absolutely love being a mom to my 2 boys....I didn't think I had girls (weird I know).
