@ChefRamsay We don't have a name either! With DS1, we had a short list, but didn't actually pick one until about a week before he was born. And we probably only picked it because I was up two separate nights with timeable contractions (that eventually faded away). GL, names are HARD.
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? I lurked Sep16, active Oct-Dec16.
*How far along are you? 35+3 <--- When did that happen??
*Which birth month board/due date? S17/ 09.08.17
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. Uh, nope. Still no name. This kid may just be named Baby Boy ColoradoHiker for lyfe.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? DS2 measured a bit big at my u/s at 32w, around 5lb, so I have another one next week to double check. I'm not really worried about it, since u/s measurements at this stage are 1lb +/-, and DS1 was only 6lb 12oz. I had DS1 four days early, after a membrane sweep, so this is possibly my last update before baby boy arrives!! Also, DS1 successfully transitioned to his toddler bed early last month, and we're officially ready whenever this LO decides to make his appearance.
I miss you ladies, but it warms my heart to see so many of you graduating this past month. FX for lots more BFPs coming your way!
I feel like such a turd because I think I only posted on this ttgp grad thread a couple of times earlier on and have been awful at even lurking since then but thank you SO MUCH for the tag! And if you've been tagging me every time I feel like even more of a jerk but I'm on mobile and don't get my tags!!
Anyhow...after just skimming through this thread I am SO EXCITED for all the new grads!!!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when?
Since Feb 2016, I believe?
*How far along are you?
I will be 36 weeks on Wednesday and can hardly believe it!!!
*Which birth month board/due date?
Technically EDD is September but because of a previous ehlers danlos-related surgery we are delivering by c-section Aug 30th...THIS MONTH!!!
*Team Pink/Blue/Green?
Team Pink
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it.
We had this discussion again last night where I said I'm worried the short list of names we have aren't "good enough" and how the name seems like such a big deal! We came up with one or two more for the short list last night and then DH said he thinks he wants to veto one of our longest standing names this morning because "he babysat a girl with that name and she was a little sh*t" So I'm with everyone on the name stress!!! Gotta bust out the book again!
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share?
I'm just still in disbelief. I think I'm going to miss my baby belly and feeling her move around in there. But so extremely excited to hold my rainbow baby in my arms!!!
A year and some change. About March '16 - July '17
*How far along are you?
9+4 (doctor decided to go by LMP since it was the latest due date of the options)
*Which birth month board/due date?
March 12
*Team Pink/Blue/Green?
Green? We're a bit undecided at this point. We'd planned on being team green in the beginning but after the ride we've had we're considering finding out. We did already turn it down in the NIPT. FYI: The nurse told us that if they include sex in the testing, it changes the coding and people were being hit by $300 copays for it. Make sure to ask. Harmony or whatever it is is only $80 or so.
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it.
Haha. We're nowhere near there yet. PGAL so it's taking a while to really believe.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share?
Yesterday's appointment with the OB/Gyn was great. *TW* I haven't been back in since my loss so it was kind of hard to go in there with so many negative memories but this was a 180. My doctor was so happy for us and the ultrasound was good. Baby's now moving around some and we got to actually hear the heartbeat (until now we've just seen it). When you get to that point, I would make sure to schedule the first US so your partner can come. It's hard for them because they're on the outside of so much of this. I think that the US yesterday, seeing movement and hearing the HB, was huge for H for feeling more like a part of this. He was over the moon yesterday.
And, of course, I miss you guys. It's like leaving all of your friends and going to a new school. There are cool people on my BMB but this place is home. Forgive me my buttinski moments.

*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. We like Charlie for either boy or girl... but Nora is also a top choice for a girl. We'll decide once we meet them!
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? I can't believe this may be my last check-in with baby on the inside! I've loved being pregnant, but I'm now getting anxious about when/how this LO will come into the world, and all the lifestyle changes that come with having a baby. So happy for all the grads here!
*How long were you active on TTGP and when? I was active back in 2014/15 when trying for my first and was active August-November 2016
*How far along are you? 17 days PP
*Which birth month board/due date? Was due July 18, but went over and had him July 27
*Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green turned Blue!
*How are you doing picking out a name? Feel free to share it. His name is Lawson.
*Questions, concerns or other? Anything else exciting to share? Went in trying for a vbac. My water broke at home and 28 hours later I hadn't made it past 2cm dilated due to scar tissue from a LEEP procedure I had 8 years ago. We tossed in the towel and opted for a c section. We got everything we hoped for out of the c section and I am very at peace with it this time around. He has been a very easy baby so far and is porking up quickly just like his brother did!
This was our last baby. I am beyond thankful for these boards, all i have learened, and the wonderful women I have met on here on this journey and wish all of you so much luck.
