Re: Friday Ticker Change 7/1
What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival? I am adding more stuff to my registry and more to my Pinterest. Hopefully this month we will get crackin' on the nursery.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions: Hello second trimester! It's nice to finally meet you.
When's your next appointment? July 14th!
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans? My husband has to work, so I'm sure it'll consist of me sleeping in. My mom and step dad are grilling out, so I'm sure I'll go to their house to swim and eat dinner.

Baby Boy #2 EDD 11/4/18
What's new with baby? (how far along, size, development) 10 weeks. Baby is the size of a lego man! Working on forming little human facial features and growing like a weed.
What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival? I started looking into registries this week. I'll probably start actually registering for things this weekend. I also watched YouTube videos about babywearing for probably an hour and a half yesterday.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions:
Rant: The gas. Oh my god.
Question: Related to above, are any of you guys using/have used Babylist to register? I'm super interested, I'm just curious about the ease of purchase/use for the gift-buyers. My family is super tech-saavy and basically sponsors Amazon Prime, so I think ordering online would be really convenient for them.
When's your next appointment? July 18th @ 12+3
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans? We're going to my H's aunt's house. She lives on a lake and the neighborhood does this huge fireworks show over the water every year. So we're going to take some chairs down to the dock and watch the show!

What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival? Not too much yet in the way of planning, but we are putting an announcement on social media this weekend and I'm pretty stoked about it.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions: My hips have been really sore this past week and it's been making sitting for any real length of time uncomfortable. Must be all that stretching going on down there!
When's your next appointment? Today! It's just a quick 20 minute check-up but still
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans? DH and I are going to my dad's condo in Steamboat for the long weekend. We're taking our furbabies and have lots of fun plans in the works, including boating around the lake and going to the rodeo. Just counting down the minutes until 3pm...
ETA: @lecool I have started creating a registry on babylist and have really liked putting it together so far. It's been very easy and super convenient to have everything in one spot. I'm a FTM so haven't used it beyond that, but I think I'm going to stick with it.

What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival?
we bought our crib and dresser set last weekend. It was a very impromptu purchase but it was a crazy good deal that we couldn't pass up!
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions:
the gas!
When's your next appointment?
july 22nd, 14 weeks
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans?
we've been out of town the past few weekends so nothing too crazy, we will hopefully finish up some house projects, grill out and see fireworks.
What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival? Nothing yet to be honest, I think I will start looking at registries. I have been blessed by many moms who have gifted me tons of used maternity clothes so I am going through them and pretty excited at the little I have to buy.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions: So much gas... and my BM's have been so inconsistent and frustrating. I think because my uterus is higher now its messing up my system. I had the flu earlier this week so that sucked.
When's your next appointment? On Monday... just a general prenatal check up. I hope to hear the heartbeat again to put my mind at ease.
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans? I am Canadian, so today is Canada Day! We went down to the huge festival in one of the big parks by the river with my friends and their kids and our dog. The park had tons of food, bands, kids games etc. There are fireworks tonight but I think I may pass... we shall see how I feel.
Week 10, size of a golden snitch or a prune.
What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival?
Not much this week, just trying to get ready to move.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions: The gas is strong with this one. Lol but really it's horrible, and I'm still having food aversions but less nausea.
When's your next appointment?
My first real appointment was today! The midwives were great. My next appointment is a month away, at 14 weeks.
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans?
We don't really have any plans. I'll probably just spend the weekend relaxing and maybe I'll go see my mom.
BFP May 16th 2016

Rants / raves / symptoms / questions:
nausea is actually starting to lessen.
When's your next appointment?
My first appt is July 13th, I will be 12wks+4d
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans?
H has to work till 1pm on monday, then we are all going to go swimming and have a cookout.
What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival? Nothing yet, we are waiting at least until 12 weeks before making any plans. This week we talked about how to announce it to our families.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions: holy exhaustion, batman! All I want to do is sleep, it's been rough to get through the work days.
When's your next appointment? I have an NT ultrasound on the 14th and an obstetrician's appointment a few days after that. My mom will be visiting us at that time, if everything is looking ok we are hoping to be able to tell her the news in person.
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans? I honestly forgot about the holiday until mid-last week! That's how bad I've been! So I get a bonus day to sleep in
What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival? We've started our registry using Babylist and are looking at cribs for the nursery.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions: Second Tri! Yaaaas! Still waiting for my energy to return but not being sick all the time is fantastic.
When's your next appointment? July 20th at 16wks 3d.
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans? We're at my parents house for a family reunion. All my family wants to see me to see if I'm showing. Hah! (I am.)
What are you doing to plan for baby's arrival? Nothing yet. This is number 5 for us so we are more or less in a waiting game until we learn babies sex. I did buy a new rock and play because it was on clearance at Target and we got rid of most of our baby gear as our youngest is 18 months and we didn't plan on anymore kids.
Rants / raves / symptoms / questions: We found babies heartbeat with the doppler at 9 weeks 5 days
but not again since than. I am not worried about it since it is still really early but was pretty excited to hear it and let the other kids hear it since they are old enough to understand what is going on. Morning sickness is still pretty bad.
When's your next appointment?
June 12th is first appt with the OB.
GTKY: What are your 4th of July plans?
We will probably have a cook out with my family and than we will take the kids to see fireworks.
