  Sorry I have been slacking on checking in with this thread... will try to do better!
  
  @cmillar36 wow I'm sorry you don't have a date for your scan! That would be very frustrating. Is there a reason??
   
  
  1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
  17 + 1 today. Baby is the size of a pomegranate.
  
  2. Any complaints/concerns/ rants/ raves?
  At this point I'm feeling pretty good. I'm a little worried about possibly having to change hospitals/midwives since we're buying a new house. It would only be about a 40 minute drive (it was only 15) but DH thinks that is too long. I'm not sure. There is a closer option but I just really like where I've been going. They have been so wonderful and helpful with dealing with my PGAL brain. 30-40 min just doesn't seem that bad to me, IDK.
  
  3. Have you had a recent ultrasound/appointment?
  No. I have an OB check on Tuesday though.
  
  4. How is PGAL brain and anxiety doing?
  I'm 6 weeks past my loss milestone so I have been doing pretty well. I think I'm to the point where I'm having as much anxiety as any other first time mom would.
  
  5. Have you announced? If so how?
  Mostly we've just told people (close friends and family) face to face as we've seen them. Have not posted anything on facebook. Might do that when we know the sex.
  
  6. GTKY: What is your Meyers-Briggs personality type? (Or what type of Mom are you? lol courtesy of buzzfeed) ? Whats your sign? 
  I'm having issues opening the links.... but I THINK I am going to be a pretty chill mom, with maybe a little crunchy-ness as far as foods are concerned. I'm an Aries.
  
  7. GTKY: If there is one thing about your upbringing that you hope to pass along to LO what would it be?
  Knowing the value of education
  

  
  
  

  31 years young
  from Seattle(ish)

  @moonlady-2 yes and a pretty stupid one. December and November will be busy delivery dates in my city. They prefer between 20-22 weeks. Just annoyed at not even having a date.

  Yay we made it another week! Hooray!
  1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
  I am 16 weeks today. Baby is as big as a avocado. 
  
  2. Any complaints/concerns/ rants/ raves?
  I have literally been having the bloating FROM HELL. i seriously have been looking 40+ weeks pregnant and its all upper belly. I am going to try to see if its from constipation today but man this is the worst
  3. Have you had a recent ultrasound/appointment?
  Im supposed to get health insurance started tomorrow. I have a new job so I just got off my old insurance on the 6/30
  4. How is PGAL brain and anxiety doing?
  I still have difficulty believing I am still pregnant and often times doppler myself every day or few days. Its weird because the last pregnancy I felt so connected to whereas this pregnancy I feel a little more distant from and I am trying to work on all the reasons why. I think just the whole PGAL thing i think the defense mechanism is Id have to see if to believe it kind thing with this pregnancy working out.
  
  5. Have you announced? If so how?
  I have been awkwardly announcing on the fly at work as part of conversation. I have told my immediate family but have not made a big announcement yet until my anatomy scan. I am waiting to tell my little sister and my sister in law because I am still nervous that I may have another loss. I guess Im telling people at work because I will need them to be somewhat understanding in case something were to happen and to be understanding of my needing time off when the time comes.
  
  6. GTKY: What is your Meyers-Briggs personality type? (Or what type of Mom are you? lol courtesy of buzzfeed) ? Whats your sign? 
  INFP (ive also gotten INFJ certain times or ENFP) 
  I am a scorpio
  *Sorry the links 
  7. GTKY: If there is one thing about your upbringing that you hope to pass along to LO what would it be?
  sense of fairness and justice and importance of current and international affairs and human rights
