Re: BOTB Grad August Check In
*How long were you active on BOTB and when? 4/5 months
*How far along are you? 6w4d
*Which birth month board/due date? M18
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Team finding out, but not until my Mat21 around 11w
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We will wait until we know the sex. We have 2 girls already so we have a nice girl name list. If it's a boy we are both totally lost.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? This is the longest I've had to wait before having an u/s, so that makes me nervous. Not getting the u/s until around 11w as well.
I miss ya'll and still check everyday.
*How long were you active on BOTB and when? 3 months I think, I was still TTA when I first started meeting you lovely ladies.
*How far along are you? 4WK 3D
*Which birth month board/due date? Hanging with April 2018 I don't expect that to change.
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? HAHA 16 weeks and waiting lol
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We've had a girl name chose from before. Gabriella, however the middle name keeps changing. Originally we said Nicole. However, I have decided I'd really like to do something with a spin on my mom's middle name. So right now it's looking like Raene/Rayne or RaeLynn or RaeLee. Raene is my favorite but I'm not on board with the spelling RAE. If it's a boy no idea. I really like Aiden but I feel like it's to trendy.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? If my due date is what i'm calculating it's the same as the due date of my sisters late term miscarriage son. I know she'll be happy for another baby but I am dreading telling her the due date. I'm afraid she'll be hurt I didn't consider that when TTC.

@livingthedream - the wait for the first appointment and the wait for the first US always felt like eternity to me. It's exciting that you will have the maternity21 test to find out what you are having though
@kindbytealikat - I love the name Gabriella
@LivingTheDream I honestly only had one ultrasound with my DS, it was the anatomy scan. Part of me wished I had more, but at the same time I knew I wouldn't because I was with a MW instead of an OB, lol.
DS2 due 12/12/18
@kindbytealikat why not Rain if you like Raene but not RAE? I think your SIL will understand that you can't really plan when your EDD will be, but that's tough. I would probably go with @CecilB93 and just be vague or fudge it a few days
Mobile isn't allowing me to copy/paste but I was here from ~Feb through July.
I'm just over 8 weeks. My first appointment was last week and we saw baby's sweet little heart beat
We will be finding out boy or girl early through NIPT. Test will be in about 3 weeks, results in 4. If it's a girl she will be Mir.iam, middle name undecided. Boy names are totally up in the air.
So far everything has been great! I have some days here and there where I feel sick but most of the time I feel totally normal. We haven't told our daughter yet and I can't wait! The plan was to tell her after my next appointment but it's hard to be patient. She wants a sibling so badly!
Rooting for every single one of you!

EDD March 12, 2018
