I'm so nervous to start this thread, but here goes! I hope it's ok!!!
Week: 10!!!
What's new with baby (size, development): a prune! What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Things are getting real. D3yo got a "big bed" and instead of taking apart the crib, we are just moving it to the newly renovated room. (both kiddos will share a room for a while.) Going to buy a baby swing because cousins and friends can use it at our house anyway and it's not expensive.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: Hunger is gearing up and I'm having a hard time eating veggies and fruit. Trying to watch my intake very carefully (with doctor's approval.) When is your next appointment: in two weeks
GTKY: Favorite dinner foods now are plain, plain, plain. We had turkey burgers (no buns) and green beans yesterday, pasta with diced tomatoes and spinach the night before. I used to love nachos and spicy food, but no way now!
Week: 6 What's new with baby (size, development): a sweet pea today According to Ovia baby is getting a face ha ha What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: I'm honestly just in survival mode until the U/S, I can't shake the overall fear I have from day to day.
