Note: Due to what has transpired this last week please let me know if you want me to take you off the list. I'm willing to stay here and run this check in for those that want it. At least for now.
Congrats @beckyboo71 and @lelly0086 on the birth of your rainbows! (I hope it's ok that I posted this. I was stalking the list to see if people were still here)

QOTW: What is your favorite part of winter? Or do you hate it?
Re: ~~~Thursday Ticker Change~~~
How far along are you? (please include EDD if you are new here). 41 weeks
How are you feeling? Done!
Any big changes this week? Just waiting for DD to arrive.
Do you have any appointment updates or news? I had an appointment and NST in Monday, BPP yesterday and another NST today. All looks well so far, but movement is significantly reduced and freaks me out. My induction is scheduled for tomorrow morning, and I pray it goes smoothly.
Do you need any T&Ps for anything? Just for a smooth induction and the safe delivery if my DD.
QOTW: What is your favorite part of winter? Or do you hate it? Skiing! I have really missed skiing this winter and am hoping that I will be able to sneak some runs in this winter.
I know many ladies have left, and I completely understand their reasons, but I plan on staying around and hope that it remains the supportive community that has gotten me through so many dark days.

How far along are you? (please include EDD if you are new here) 40 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How are you feeling? I can't believe that I am 40 weeks today
Any big changes this week? Unfortunately, no
Do you have any appointment updates or news? I have another appointment today along with a NST. When I spoke with my doctor on Monday (at Monday's appt), he said that we will discuss possibly inducing on Sunday if she doesn't come out on her own by then. Being that I haven't been dilated at all - I'm thinking this might happen.
Do you need any T&Ps for anything? If you have any to spare - can you send one or two this way that I am dilating finally?
QOTW: What is your favorite part of winter? Or do you hate it? I love winter and my favorite part is the cool temps and the snow. However, we haven't seen much snow at all around these parts.
How far along are you? 27 weeks
How are you feeling? Still uncomfortable to walk sometimes, feels like there is pressure on my vagina, which could be because there is a baby in there, who likes to kick mommy, especially early in the morning. Have also been having some hip pain. It seems to primarily be my right hip, even if I am sleeping on my left hip. So MH has been enjoying some of my tossing and turning at night.
Any big changes this week? No big changes this week, baby still seems pretty content to move around in there. Finally got MH to sit still with his hands on my belly for more than 5 minutes so he could feel more than one kick.
Do you have any appointment updates or news? GD test is next Thursday and then I start appointments every two weeks. I feel like time has flown by already (seems like we just had our US and that was 6 weeks ago) so I feel like once my appointments are closer then time is going to go even faster....
Do you need any T&Ps for anything? None for me, but lots of T&P to both @Mom2anAngel2 and @peggels24 for safe delivery of happy and healthy babies soon!!!!
QOTW: What is your favorite part of winter? Or do you hate it? I love snow, when I don't have to drive in it. I love to be curled up on the couch watching the snow fall outside, which I did a lot of this year because it was too cold and I have been trying to enjoy my quiet, alone time before our LO arrives.

How are you feeling?
I've had a pretty good week. Just some minor Aches and pains. Baby girl was having a dance party in my uterus the other night. It was crazy!
Any big changes this week?
Nope
Do you have any appointment updates or news?
Regular Ob appointment tomorrow.
Do you need any T&Ps for anything?
Not this week. (((Hugs))) for all that need them especially @momtoanangel2 and @peggles24 as they get ready to meet their rainbows.
QOTW: What is your favorite part of winter? Or do you hate it?
I love a peaceful walk in the snow. I love how the falling snow just dulls all the rest of the sounds. There is still a part of me that will wait up to see a storm starting (though that may just be the teacher in me since it doesn't take too much snow to cancel school around here)
@momtoanangel2 I'm sorry you are feeling so anxious. I'm glad your NST have gone well and if you are induced tomorrow I hope it goes smoothly.
@peggles24 I hope you can avoid an induction and that baby girl gets a move on. At least your Patriots won last weekend!
@Sllinge -Yay for DH feeling kicks! GL on your GTT next week.
@Beckyboo71 - congrats! Enjoy snuggling with your little girl.
@kate6214 - the dance parties can be uncomfortable (especially as you get further along), but they are soooooo comforting in a way. Enjoy them!

How far along are you? (please include EDD if you are new here) 8 weeks
Do you have any appointment updates or news? Thought I would do this first since it impacts the other answers. I had a "dating u/s" with my nurse practitioner on Tuesday to help me calm my fears, but it just left me in limbo. I should have been measuring 7w5d based off LMP but was measuring 6w4d and there was no heartbeat. She has me getting more blood work done tomorrow and an u/s with head of the practice on Monday.
How are you feeling? I was feeling pretty defeated but have been trying to rationalize it (and hold onto hope) using math and science. Looking back at Fertility Friend (just documenting periods and sex last month) we dtd on cd 17 and 22. With my previous pregnancy this summer (when I was temping), I conceived on cd 20. So if I conceived on cd 22, I would be measuring 8 days behind the usual cd14 ovulation date. Plus lots of people have said I might have been too early for a heartbeat. Just keeping my fingers crossed that we see growth and a heartbeat on Monday. I have a feeling a good cry will be coming soon.
Any big changes this week? No symptoms (aside from gas, bloating, and tiredness) and no spotting so far so that seems good.
Do you need any T&Ps for anything? Heartbeat and growth on Monday. Good hcg numbers tomorrow.
QOTW: What is your favorite part of winter? Or do you hate it? Not a big fan of winter, but my favorite part this year has been wearing boots and knee socks.
How far along are you? 32 Weeks!
How are you feeling? Exhausted! Everything I do makes me tired, I've also been pretty agitated with everyone lately and kind of feel bad.
Any big changes this week? Nothing huge. Noticing some discharge but I don't think it's anything to worry about.
Do you have any appointment updates or news? Appointment tomorrow with my OB
Do you need any T&Ps for anything? Nope, sending them out of course
QOTW: What is your favorite part of winter? Or do you hate it? Cuddling!!
With everything going on, that I've pretty much missed because I think it was while I was out of town for a wedding, I'm playing the bump game by ear.
@Mom2anAngel2 GL tomorrow! FX for a smooth delivery!
@peggles24 Hopefully your induction goes smoothly FX for safe delivery!
@Sllinge *hugs* for the uncomfortableness...it only gets worse :P
@kate6214 I wish we had snow
@emadlma I hope your bloodwork and u/s both yield positive results *hugs*
@Beckyboo71 and @lelly0086 YAY RAINBOW BABIES!!
@kate6214 Glad I can help Sometimes I think if I knew it was coming I would be more prepared, but I don't know that I would be prepared for pressure in my vagina whenever I walk.
Reading my weekly update yesterday and it said that I would find myself having to use the bathroom more, I am not sure if that is possible, there was no let up on my bladder during the 2nd tri, might have to move my desk to the bathroom. Something else to look forward to and some further advise would be to not sit and wait until you think you really have to pee to go, because when I stand up now I am pretty sure the baby just falls onto my bladder.
@emadlma good luck with your numbers and your appointment. I didn't have any early monitoring but I know I was so scared and stressed before my first appointment/US at 8 weeks. So we all feel for you.

@asglover514 sorry about the exhaustion and irritability. I hope you had a good appointment.
@Slinge I don't think in anyone could be prepared for all the pregnancy quirks. I think sometimes even though you can read or hear about someone's experience it doesn't make any difference until you feel it yourself. Oh thank you baby for letting me know how painful it is when you kick my cervix. Your bathroom antics made me laugh. I informatively can't move my classroom to the bathroom. I've upped my nighttime trips from once to 2 or 3 times. I guess it really does prepare you for a newborn.
@peggels24 GL with your induction tonight! I hope you have a safe delivery.
