Re: TTGP Grad Check-In | 23 March
When is your next appointment? April 24 at 18+1 for the anatomy scan (I cannot wait for this answer to finally change!)
Cravings/Symptoms? not too much...
Rants/Raves/Randoms? meh, things are ok. I was just thinking earlier today though that despite my gut that's starting to harden and stick out more than it has in the past and despite being tired, breathing heavy (I thought I was crazy until my app gave me a legit reason for this!), and having food aversions, I just don't feel pregnant and still cannot imagine actually having a live baby in September. It's weird. I hope that it gets through soon...
Questions? none now
pregnancy GTKY: other than you and DH, who is the most excited about this LO? my mom for sure.
NBR GTKY: Sweet or salty? normally sweet, but since getting KU, I've been leaning more towards salty...

We finally told everyone! I still have to call my grandparents in CA and my H has to tell his boss, but everyone else got the news over the weekend.
Questions?
Nope
pregnancy GTKY: other than you and DH, who is the most excited about this LO?
Probably my SIL. She screamed, attack hugged us and started crying when we told her this weekend. She is kinda obsessed with babies though lol. She has 7 kids and is a doula/lactation consultant and is training to become a midwife.
NBR GTKY: Sweet or salty?
Both! Hello chocolate covered pretzels.

Questions? Not really! Just want to do my anatomy scan soon!
pregnancy GTKY: other than you and DH, who is the most excited about this LO?
I think my BFF! She is so so excited. More so than my mom. My mom almost seems like... oh, my little girl is pregnant, and I don't like this.

"Sugar Fancy Tutu"
When is your next appointment? Had a basic appt Tuesday, next is A/S on April 21. We're team green, but excited to see little one again!
Cravings/Symptoms? I really want pizza tonight. Symptoms: Feeling more stretching pulling in my uterus, and sweet little flutters every now and then!
Rants/Raves/Randoms? Rant: DH is freaking out about finances, worried he won't be able to provide for baby. We will be just fine. He's just such a worrier and it's hard for me to convince him that it'll be okay.
Rave: Going shopping for maternity clothes today and seeing friends from college Saturday.
Questions? Who will be there when you give birth? I think it'll just be DH for me, but I'm debating on my mom as well. She's in the medical field, which I think could help, but also possibly be a distraction or annoying.
pregnancy GTKY: other than you and DH, who is the most excited about this LO? Prob MIL. My parents are def excited, it's the first grandchild for both our parents, but MIL is very excited.
NBR GTKY: Sweet or salty? I'm a pineapple pizza kind of person, so I like both. But I have a sweet tooth, for sure. Always want something for dessert.

14+5, singleton (baby girl), 3yo DS
When is your next appointment?
4/20 normal monthly check! A/S the following week, woohoo!
Cravings/Symptoms?
the vomiting is ramping up which seems off since I'm 2nd tri. But whatever I'm not nauseous just vomitting in the a.m.
Rants/Raves/Randoms?
i have the biggest shit bags in my family.... sooo there's that! But rave is excited and terrified for a baby girl!
Questions
nope...
pregnancy GTKY: other than you and DH, who is the most excited about this LO?
My DS! He so badly wants "his baby" to arrive.
NBR GTKY: Sweet or salty?
ohhh my non pregnant self loves all things. So both!
When is your next appointment? Today at 2:00pm to check blood pressure. Then the next one should be 4/10 for my glucose test.
Cravings/Symptoms? I have discovered that I can't eat meat in the evenings. All week my dinners have consisted of bread, cheese and cereal. Probably need to add some veggies in there but they sound awful in the evening.
Rants/Raves/Randoms? We announced on FB Monday so now it's all out in the open and I can finally talk about it without whispering to a select few at work.
Questions? Has everyone started a registry yet? I feel like it's still too early but don't want to be behind either.
pregnancy GTKY: other than you and DH, who is the most excited about this LO? MIL. When we told her she screamed and hugged us. I had to tell her to be quiet. Now that it's out, when I see her all she talks about is how I am carrying her grandchild. It's not her first... It heartwarming and annoying at the same time.
NBR GTKY: Sweet or salty? Before I got pregnant I had a huge sweet tooth. Now, I barely eat any sugar. I bought 11 boxes of girl scout cookies about a month ago. 7 of them are still sitting in my cabinet. I ate 1, husband and kids ate the rest. This would have never happened if I wasn't pregnant!

When is your next appointment? Monday. Early GD test and 16w appt.
Cravings/Symptoms? My aching old lady back. I don't remember this with DS, but holy heck it's painful. My abs really hurt, too. Nausea is still coming and going. I'm still losing a little bit of weight, but thankfully not much. I didn't start gaining with DS until later in second tri, so it is normal for me, I guess. But I'd rather eat, let's be honest.
Rants/Raves/Randoms? I'm pretty happy today.
Questions?
pregnancy GTKY: other than you and DH, who is the most excited about this LO? Good question. Probably my parents/ in-laws. Nobody else cares after your first one, haha.
NBR GTKY: Sweet or salty? SWEET. And the nausea makes me sad, bc I really don't want sugar in big doses anymore. DH loves salty, we're an amazing combination.
DS2: EDD- 09.08.17
To answer your question: I'm planning on just DH. But we also have no family in Sweden, so I don't have to consider much lol. If my mom is here at that time, mayyyyybe her, but I personally wouldn't even consider it if she wouldn't be alone in the waiting room just because I'm private with my body lol. DH and health professionals, sure, but anyone else I get squeamish. That might have to change.....

In terms of a registry, I haven't started one, but I probably won't....we live overseas, so I'm hoping people just give nothing or money since we have limited suitcase space in the summer and our friends here wouldn't be getting any big ticket items of things that we would have picked out specifically anyways....hopefully someone else will be more help!
