    How far along are you? 21 weeks

    How big is baby? Endive

    Upcoming appointments this week? None

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Feeling harder kicks and seeing some on the outside. Sidenote: I'm already huge ugh.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Finally painted the nursery! I ran out of paint so I need to get 1 more can to put a second coat on one wall and two coats on the very last wall. I'm loooooving the color! Excited to get furniture in there and decorate but DH still has a lot of furniture to get rid of before that can happen.

    GTKY:   What's your favorite zoo animal? Why? Monkeys. They're the most entertaining to watch. Luckily our science center has some and when I go with DD sometimes they interact with her through the glass.

    How far along are you? 20 weeks

    How big is baby?  Stapler! 

    Upcoming appointments this week?  Not until the anatomy scan on March 30th... I had to push it back a day so DH can come still

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? I got more exhausted again this week so I'm wondering if I'm low on iron or something. Gives me an excuse for DH to make steaks and sautéed spinach :)

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  My mom just ordered me like 7 maternity tops and I'm so excited for those to arrive so I can stop wearing shirts too tight or DH's tshirts haha

    GTKY:  What's your favorite zoo animal? Why? I have always loved cheetahs. I don't really know when or why it started but I just think they're amazing!

    @middy411 I'm jealous that you're feeling such harder kicks! I'm a FTM and I feel like I still only feel little things, but I'm also huge haha. I've been large since so early for a FTM. Thankfully I had been able to wear layers to hide it!

    @mokay19 I was huge as a FTM too! The comments were ridiculous. I'm not sure why people say things to make you expect this or that just because it's your first time. First time pregnancies vary just like all other ones and you can be huge and deliver early and yada yada just like STM+.
    I did feel kicks earlier this time. I remember some people could see actual limbs through their bellies but I never saw anything like that last time. Maybe I have thick skin/uterus lol. While I'm excited about the harder kicks I'm also a little nervous because I remember them hurting last time when she would kick me really hard lol. I also hate the feeling when they're pushing out right where your belly button is. Ouch/Gross!

    How big is baby? Mangoes!

    Upcoming appointments this week? None.  No appointments until April 13th.

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Round ligament pain.  Oof.  It's a real bitch.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  My SIL is pregnant!  My brother called to tell me last night.  I'm so happy for them.  And my parents!  We have both been married almost ten years so they had given up on grandchildren.  And now they're getting 3 in a couple months (our twins and bro's singleton).

    GTKY:   What's your favorite zoo animal? Why?  I love the big cats (because they remind me of my little cats), giraffes, and otters.  Oh, and gorillas.  I could watch them forever.

    @SarahBethBR - congrats! We are hoping this little one will have cousins close in age, too. My brother and I both got married in 2016 and his wife has been talking about having 5 kids since we met her a year and a half ago so ppl were surprised DH and I were first since we weren't at all vocal about the kids thing.

    @szwill86 Yayy!!

    How far along are you? 19+1

    How big is baby? Tomato or Mango - not sure how those are the same size

    Upcoming appointments this week? A/S on Friday

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Feeling baby move a lot. DH could even feel it once with his hand on my stomach (timing was perfect and he'd heard me describe the flutters/bubbles). That was probably a week ago and we haven't been able to time it out right again. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  posted about finding maternity shirts in the weekly FTM thread. Having a heard time finding things that look flattering with the growing boobs and belly and a shorter height and average size frame. A lot tends to swallow me in length and looks frumpy instead of flattering. Dresses seem to flatter much more than the shirts I am finding and it's so tough with mostly online-only.

    GTKY:   What's your favorite zoo animal? Why? Elephants. DH thinks they are the coolest animals and we are always so excited to see them at zoos. We're team green so doing grey for the nursery with some teal and some elephant accents (not over the top).
