  • How many weeks?
    13!!  Hello second trimester??  I'm never 100% sure.

    What size?
    A small peach

    Upcoming appointments?
    NT scan tomorrow

    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    The terrible first trimester symptoms are completely gone for me and I'm starting to feel quite a bit of pressure in my lower abdomen when I sit on the floor or move around a lot so I'm pretty sure that's baby growing away!

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly?
    We are all about the neutral.  DS's nursery is greens, browns and beige decorated with trees and birds.  I did find myself move away from the neutral clothes though.  Most of our newborn clothes are green, white etc. but once he came I found myself choosing a lot more masculine clothes.  The "mini man" look really is way too cute :)

    Upcoming appointments? Friday! It was not supposed to be an u/s visit but they are doing one to double check LO isn't a double (at 7.5 weeks one doc thought she saw a second sac but other doc did not).

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Still pretty tired and have nausea if isn't been like an hour since I've eaten.  I went on a 3 mile walk yesterday and was proud of myself, of course then I ate a bag of Doritos...  I told my work team last week and it went great.  

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly?
    I don't know what I'll be.  I want to be bright and bubbly but will probably end up being neutral....

    Upcoming appointments? Thursday is 1st tri testing

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Am in the process of telling everyone at work. I am anticipating getting little to no work done today due to the constant interruptions. Oh darn 
    I bought and ate too many mini cadbury eggs this weekend, I really need to cut that out soon.

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly? DDs nursery is fairly neutral. As far as clothes she goes in cycles. Fall/winter is neutral clothing, spring summer is neon and bright.

    Upcoming appointments? I have my NT scan tomorrow :smile: 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? This might be TMI but I'm am soon swollen and tender "down there." Has anyone else experienced this? Is it normal? I called my midwife and am waiting to hear back from her.

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly? 
    I hate pastels. Always have, probably always will. When I was 3 I started to refuse to wear them. I will probably go neutral but bright so a combo of neutral and natural and bright and bubbly. Aside from clothes, I'd love to be able to reuse the expensive things (DH and I don't want to be OND) so neutral would be nice but I LOVE bright colours.

    What size? Plum

    Upcoming appointments? Had a blood work/Doppler appointment last Thursday, so my next isn't for 4 weeks.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Told the other teachers on my floor.  They're all really excited, which is great.  We're going to be telling friends/extended family starting in about a week or so, once we can see them in person.  Otherwise, just frustrated that my nausea seems to be getting slightly worse.  Also, I'm still falling asleep at 8, but now I wake up at 3.  I'd love to shift that so I can stay up later and wake up on time.

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly? 
    I'm thinking neutral, but not necessarily staying with natural.  I like the greens/browns, but I'm excited about a lot of the bright yellows and blues I've seen in the gender-neutral territory.  We're team green, so for now we'll be staying away from the traditional pink/blue dichotomy.  Post-birth, though, I'm expecting a lot of gendered gifts.  I won't complain, if it means onesies I don't have to pay for!  :smile:

    11 weeks! 

    What size?
    As big as a lime. 

    Upcoming appointments?
    Next Monday for the NT scan.

    My nausea is finally getting better, I'm still very tired though. 

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly?
    Definitely no pastels, I love neutrals but also love bright colors. I'm thinking a neutral nursery and big ticket items I can use again in the future. As for clothing a mixture of both neutrals and brights.

    What size? Lego Man

    Upcoming appointments? Not for another 2 weeks.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm traveling next week and am a little hesitant.  I have to pack and make sure DH and the kids will be good for the week while I'm gone.  Not that DH can't handle it, I just worry when I'm not there.  I'm a worrier by nature, but need to try to make the most of this kid-free work trip and try not to stress.

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly?  "Baby style" is neutral.  We'll have to bunk our boys up soon and I'm actually thinking of going bright and bold for them in their "new room".  We're team green, and always have been, so all of our big stuff is neutral anyway.
  • How many weeks?  12 weeks!

    What size?  Plum or macaron

    Upcoming appointments?  Just had my 12 week appointment today. The doctor couldn't find the heartbeat at first which freaked me out even though I know that is normal at 12 weeks. Got another peek at baby via US and saw that little heart pumping away at 161 BPM. :) also learned I have an anterior placenta. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Not really. Excited to go public. Contemplating when/if to do a FB announcement. Maybe today--leaping for joy on leap day?

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly?  Neutral to bright. Lo's nursery is mostly neutral, with a grass green rug and orange curtains. 
  • @Sporty1216 - I love the idea of a "leaping for joy" FB announcement. 
  • How many weeks? 11 weeks 

    What size? Poker chip/lime

    Upcoming appointments? Tomorrow! Physical exam, possibly ultrasound, first tri testing, and genetic testing

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I haves head cold that has moved to my chest making me cough every 10 seconds. Other than that, pregnancy symptoms have lightened up and I'm starting to feel normal again. 

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly? Grey will be part of the style whether boy or girl then either blue or pink so I guess kind of tradition but I'm going with brighter colors instead of pastels

    What size? I guess a plum based on above posters

    Upcoming appointments? Nope, not until 15 weeks. Just had one last Monday and saw my cutie.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Yesterday I got my NIPT testing back and we are low risk and I'm grateful. Random failure: I signed up to send in popcorn for my daughter's Dr. Seuss party yesterday and totally forgot. It's terrible because this is only the second time I signed up to send something in (those other moms are so quick on the sign up!) AND embarrassingly this is the second time I forgot. I'm so ashamed! I need to get my s*** together.  Oh well, DD1 still loves me.  

    GTKY: How would you describe your "baby style"?  Traditional pastels?  Neutral and natural?  Bright and bubbly?
    My style is survival. We had our first two while we were both full time students with no income. Free or cheap has been my style. Now we have incomes (yay!) but almost no time so our "nursery" will be a PNP in our bedroom.  My daughter share a room that used to be a boys room before we moved in and we still haven't taken down the boyish wall paper.  Oh well! One day I'll be on top of my business.  Bottom line: babies look cute in anything!
