Next is June 9th. Getting there, slowly but surely...
On Sunday we made sausage dogs with everything (ketchup, mustard, relish, onions) because I wanted one. But I don't think it was a strong enough craving to be a pregnancy one.
This weekend we're going to see DH's family and finally announce to them!
Nope.
I'm 5'7". DH is 5'10" and I love me some block heels/wedges but honestly I'm comfortable with my height and neither of us care if I'm taller than him in certain shoes.
@txmomma16 Yay for a helpful H!

@MJDsquared So exciting that you'll be announcing to that side of your family this weekend! Btw I had a hot dog with the exact same toppings on Sunday. My sausage/hot dog cravings are on a whole new level right now!
@txmomma16 what a great hubs! I can tell mine is being more protective of me, always asking how I'm feeling, and taking care of my suitcase while we were traveling, but doing chores.... I'm hoping that will be a 2nd tri miracle

@abcola The childcare part is the thing that stresses me out. I've heard wait lists for daycare can be up to 18 months in some areas, which is insane. We live in the suburbs, so I'm hoping it's not that crazy...but I'm scared to start looking/get on a waitlist because it just still feels so early and that makes me anxious. Ugh.
@ktcakes87 I have a long torso (though being only 5'7" not long enough for a one-piece to be quite that short!) and shorter legs so maybe I'd portion those out a little more evenly but not change my height, now that I think of it?
@Piccola1988 @leilagphillips Hoping you ladies get through your wedding festivities without too much stress! I totally agree that that bachelorette party seems over the top. My bachelorette night was suuuper low key.

@blueskies17 - so glad you've had good news and your doctor is confident!
@abcola - I've started a bit. Wait lists here are INSANE. In fact, by waiting until after the first tri is over, it's very likely that I won't be off the waitlist at my top choices for daycare. But I just was too afraid to jinx it. I might put it in this week - which is like just shy of 12 weeks. I'm mostly looking at daycare centers (not in home daycares) or doing a nanny share. I think "too early" really depends on where you live!

@blueskies17 Thats great news! I can't wait for the day my doctor tells me that. Congrats
@abcola I don't think it's too early to start thinking about childcare. I love to plan ahead though.
@ktcakes87 Woohoo for 2nd tri!
@Piccola1988 Ugh, I feel you on the wedding crap. I had to go to a wedding this last weekend and it was sooooooo boring. I left by 8:45, I was exhausted. Hang in there and try to bring comfy shoes.
@leilagphillips I would absolutely skip it, unless you're this persons best friend. I personally don't have the energy for that kind of stuff right now. And we're in the same boat with the penny pinching

We had an US last week to determine what kind of twins we're having, and thankfully, they're mo/di. Slightly high risk, but not as high risk as the alternative. Because of this, I'll be seeing a team of MFM (maternal fetal medicine) doctors every 2 weeks for US. My next one is June 8th I'm excited to see how big they'll be!
I'm 5'6" and I do not wish to be any different. Maybe longer legs so I wouldn't have to hem all of my pants, but I don't really care.

@breezybee @MJDsquared Thanks for backing me up. I was worried I might sound selfish. I contacted the girl who's hosting the party and let her know that I'd be skipping the pole dancing and hotel stay, but that I'd join for the games, dinner, and bars/clubs for a bit. My actual friend who's getting married doesn't actually know any of the details of her party yet, since her friend's keeping it a surprise. I still want to celebrate with her, I just don't want to go broke in the process!
leilagphillips omg yes!! i cannot STAND these over the top bachelorette parties/weekends/trips. no!! unless its a dinner, i honestly RSVP no. i don't care anymore. sorry but i'm not spending a night in a resort with 5 other activities with a bunch of girls i don't know in a place 3 hours away. if you're in the bridal party, then yes. otherwise, nah. if these things were local and i could join for 1 part like the dinner i would but it never seems to be the case.
@Piccola1988 Good luck with the wedding! I definitely don't have enough energy for that.
@breezybee Cheers to less nausea! Your move sounds exciting!
How far along are you?
Thank God, my nausea has been manageable for past two days! Please God, let it stay this way LOL.
Nothing for now.
5'5" and I'm OK with that.
ETA: Update regarding the at-home doppler. I found the heartbeat without any problem last night after I got home from work. I read somewhere (or one of you told me) that a full stomach/bladder helps. After hearing it, I vowed to put it away for a while! Thanks everyone for your support.

GTKY: How tall are you? Do you wish you were taller or shorter? I am 5'1". I don't mind being short, but it is annoying how gaining a couple pounds is more obvious on my frame. DH is 6'2" and I never really notice our height difference until I see a picture and I'm like damn I'm short!!

Nothing until middle of June. For some reason I've been a little anxious lately just because it's been a few weeks since I've had any sort of appointment. Considering the at home doppler thing, but I think it might cause more anxiety if I couldn't make it work.
Omg, yes to everyone who said hot dogs! For some reason those have sounded extra delicious. Italian food has been something that has stayed down reasonably well this whole time too.
I'm 5'9" which sometimes is inconvenient (pants are often too short after one wash and hubby is just under 2" taller so I feel like an Amazon) but in general I'm fine with it. I feel like sometimes I'm taken more seriously because I'm physically on level with a good number of men.
@peachy13: I have a doppler, and still wasn't able to find it a few days ago. I told myself I'm going to put it away till next week, because this is about the time I had a missed miscarriage last year, and I don't want to stress myself out.
