Hello!! Sorry I’m not as active on here as some. I find the app hard to work, wish we had a fb group.
Im looking forward to my first real appointment and ultrasound on the 21. It cannot get here fast enough. Have definitely not felt great lately, which makes me optimistic that things are going well. Can’t help but worry but trying to trust and pray my little pea is growing strong every day!
@knitknitread@srachilagani@kaykay1126 I couldn't wait, but am superstitious. I got 2 Caron cakes of rainbow yarn and I'm crocheting an ambiguous blanket.

Here! Find the app a bit cumbersome to read posts/comment on but I’m still around. First appointment tomorrow morning. I think just a blood test and pap, I’ll be 7+3 and don’t have DH coming. I’ll feel bad if they do more and he misses out. Still feels not real, but I’m still nauseas everyday at and haven’t had a period so I must still be pregnant.
I’m here. 7w 4d. Feeling pretty anxious/tentatively hopeful that this one keeps sticking. I’ll feel better after my first midwife appointment at 10 weeks when we’ll hopefully hear a heartbeat. First trimester is rough business ❤️
Here. DD has gotten so much better at walking in the last week and everyday her personality comes out more and more! She really is the light of our lives!
Here! Had my first bout of morning sickness today, which doesn't sound like a good thing - BUT! - I got it for the first time on the exact. same. day. as my last pregnancy, which was a healthy/uneventful pregnancy so I'm taking this as a Good Sign!!!
Late to the party but, here! 7 + 2 today and my first appointment is a week away. I don’t think I will truly feel at ease until then, so I’m REALLY looking forward to that appointment. I was able to see DD’s heartbeat right at 6 weeks, so that’s why I’m so impatient.
We had an ultrasound on Feb 1 at 7 weeks and saw the little peanut and the heartbeat... Also saw the umbilical cord starting to form which was cool. Next appointment is on Feb 21 and we're getting the MaterniT21 test done, so we'll have some answers about a healthy baby and bonus on finding out the sex early. I'm in a much better place mentally this time (with DS/#2 I was almost angry I had gotten pregnant and life was seemingly in hold. I love my baby, but had a lot of big plans for the year that didn't happen because I was pregnant and it weighed on me. Totally selfish and lead to PPD)... I'm at peace this time and excited about #3 and looking forward to those intoxicating new baby smells and snuggles.

No disrespect just wondering what the difference between this thread is and the appointments thread?
Also rubbed me the wrong way a bit, cant really put a name on the feeling but agree with @BusinessWife that it screwed my face up a bit. First tri is HARD. I was one of those *TW* posts in my last bmb and nobody wants to write those. Call me sensitive but Ive had enough negative experiences that I think we should all just try a little harder to be considerate of where others are at, even if we have the same anxieties about those posts. I wouldnt doubt if some of those loss moms are still lurking the board and it would really hurt to see some things worded the way they are.

I'm looking forward to celebrating our son's first birthday this weekend with friends and family! I'm taking in all the time I have with our first born before chaos hits with a 2nd!
@episcowitch - no! Stop! I’m just not ready!! Ugh I want to start so bad. I’m supposed to go for a scan on Thursday (two days!) but I’m really uneasy today. That looks fantastic though!

I agree with @spottedginger and @BusinessWifeI'm still here but feel kind of odd shouting that at the rooftops. My heart goes out to the ladies who've had to leave us. I'm still completely terrified and ready to get past the first tri.
Also have to agree this post rubbed me the wrong way as a past loss mama. I understand the intention behind the OP wasn’t to be negative, but it’s so hard to make a post celebrating that I personally haven’t had a loss with so many recent heartbreaking loss posts, and with the high likelihood that there will be more to come. It could even be me. I just want the ladies who have has losses (if you’re still lurking) to know my heart goes out to them.
I just wanted to apologize to those who were upset by the way I worded the first post. I was in no way trying to minimize anyone's experience, nor was I trying to push anything in anyone's face. I tried to walk the fine line between acknowledging both sides and I'm afraid it did not read as I had hoped. So you have my deepest apology. I changed the wording at the top to just state what my intent was without any extra commentary. I hope it can be an encouragement.
I'm still here. Nausea has me bumping less than I'd like. Heck, I'm not doing much of anything I'd like since I've been feeling this way, lol.
But my thing to look forward to is that my first appointment is one week from today. Since I'm using my old OB from my hometown, I get to spend a couple days with my folks as well. Looking forward to that as well.
I’m here! Looking forward to getting my Panorama draw done tomorrow so we can find out in a week or so if this little boop is a boy or girl. Then I can go crazy with the ordering of new baby stuff and organizing of DS’ stuff.
We are also telling our parents (the grandparents) this week! We’ve got a t-shirt for DS with a bulldozer on the front that says, “Can you dig it? I’m going to be a big brother!” and when his grandparents get to our house, we’ll get him dressed and send him downstairs to see who figured it out first. Had a good 10 week appointment today and I can’t wait until my 12 week for another ultrasound!
