Re: Group 4 Check-in (EDD July 25-31) - Week of 11/26
Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 5+1
Baby is the size of a(n): Appleseed
Upcoming Appointments: Scheduled it today! December 14 seems so far away
How are you feeling?: Good so far. I noticed heart rate increase/heart palpitations today, so that feels weird.
Rants/Raves: Rants: My husband is out of town for work a ton in December, so that's kind of a bummer. Raves: I've been busier at work lately, so that's really helpful to keep my mind off of the wait until my first appt. We celebrated my sister's 30th birthday this weekend, and I was still fun even though I was Sober Sally!
Questions: Is this everyone's first? Second? Twelfth?
GTKY: Have you thought of anything nursery related yet? If so, share your ideas! I think we're going to try to only partially convert our second bedroom to a nursery. (We don't want to get rid of our queen guest bed for visitors!) So, I'm not sure that I'll do a ton of "decorating."
Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: EDD 7/31 wk4+6
Baby is the size of a(n): poppy seed
Upcoming Appointments: I had a blood test today and another for Wednesday and then u/s around what should be 6 weeks
How are you feeling?: Fine, no real symptoms yet. Except lack of appetite which I take as a plus since I’m plus size.
Rants/Raves: No rants. Kind of a rave is I haven’t told DH yet, it’s kind of fun knowing this little secret and I’m hoping I can wait it out to tell him on our 10 year anniversary in early December. I didn’t really do anything special to tell him with our other two and this being the last and having fertility issues I’m savoring it all.
Questions: Nothing I can think of
GTKY: Have you thought of anything nursery related yet? If so, share your ideas! We won’t be doing a nursery. We have 3 bedrooms on our main floor, my son and daughter having their own room. Baby will share with us for the first 6 months or so and then we will do some rearranging so that two siblings will be sharing a room. I’ve got to decorate two nurseries so I’m ok with it and it saves some money until we combine siblings and most likely makeover that room.
GTKY: trying to decide if baby will share a room with DD. We live in a big city apartment so limited space! We do have a 3rd bedroom but we opened it up to the living area to give us more space there - not sure I could adjust to losing it! I have a feeling this time around I won’t do anything until after baby has arrived since he or she will sleep in our room for the first 6 months or so. With DD I had the nursery planned before I was even showing
Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: July 31 (by lmp) or August 4 (by o date)
Baby is the size of a(n): poppy seed
Upcoming Appointments: none til Jan 9.
How are you feeling?: mostly good. Hungry all the time, tired more easily. Occasional wave of light headedness.
Rants/Raves: thankful for christmas to break up first tri which is the worst tri in my experience. I'd do 3rd tri twice to avoid 1st tri if i could haha

Like others, baby will be in with us for the first few months. Then (s)he'll probably move in asks take over the guest room but we will leave the big bed in there, so not much decorating. DS has a woodland theme, which I like

Baby is the size of a(n): something on a pencil eraser, I didn't pay much attention... Still crazy tiny
Upcoming Appointments: haven't made mine yet. I go to a general practitioner and won't have an appointment until after Christmas.
How are you feeling?: so so miserable. Morning sickness was starting to kick in when I got the stomach flu last night. Right now I can't tell if I'm going to puke because of the stomach flu which means don't eat anything or if it's morning sickness so I should try some 7 up.
Rants/Raves: see above... Too miserable to complain about anything else.
Questions: none... My third baby so I feel pretty confident what to expect.

I haven't. It has dawned on me this is my first one I might get to kinda plan. With my first we lived in a one bedroom apartment, and he slept in our room for about 12 months, then he got the master bedroom and we slept in the front room because he kept waking up and wondering why no one was paying attention to him. My second kind of took over the guest bedroom in our 3 bedroom condo. My dad is making bunk beds for my boys, my two can share and we can make over the 3rd bedroom.
Baby is the size of a(n): apple seed
Upcoming Appointments: had my confirmation appointment yesterday and my 8 week appointment set for 12/22
How are you feeling?: if I eat small meals through the day I am not as nauseated. Eat the wrong thing and I’m a big ball of gas!
Rants/Raves: just so happy to have a little one on the way! Being cautiously optimistic as history of miscarriage in my immediate family.
Questions: none at the moment
GTKY: Have you thought of anything nursery related yet? — Harry Potter theme! My husband thinks I’m joking! Boy is he wrong lol
Baby is the size of a(n): Poppyseed
Upcoming Appointments: 12/18/18 for ultrasound and confirmation appointment
How are you feeling?: Some cramping and bloating and my boobs are sore, but other than that I feel pretty good.
Rants/Raves: None at the moment. Other than it feels like forever until my appointment in three weeks!
Questions: None at the moment.
GTKY: Have you thought of anything nursery related yet? If so, share your ideas! Ummmm... I currently have the bee in my bonnet that I want to move because this house feels too small for 5 people. SOOOO I'm looking at houses very causally. lol. I talk a big game but I doubt it will happen. So no plans on a nursery yet, and if we stay here the new baby will go into the same room that his/her older siblings did. Baby #3 problems! lol.
Met 9/2001
Baby is the size of a(n): Dot Snail
Upcoming Appointments: Not until 12/17
How are you feeling?: Pretty good, occasional nausea...always hungry! Urgh!
Rants/Raves: Not too much...I'm going out with my friends for an annual holiday night and I'm soooo freakin tired after 5pm I know I'm going to be dragging. Even H wanted me to go to the hockey game with him tomorrow night and I told him to take my brother bc sleeping sounds so much better. Just want more energy back!
Questions: ?!?
GTKY: Have you thought of anything nursery related yet? If so, share your ideas! Oh boy, I can't even go there yet. We live in a 3 bed house and are having the third kid .... so we've been looking for a new house vs contemplating building a house. In the event that we don't find something or make a decision in time, I'll likely just put a crib in DD's room and let the kids sleep in DS's bunk bed when the baby is ready to be in a room at night alone. That's worst case scenario. Hoping we figure it out in time so all the kids have a room!
Met 9/2001
Baby is the size of a(n): Pea
Upcoming Appointments: Ultrasound Monday 12/5
How are you feeling?: TIRED! Other than that not too bad, a few bouts of nausea but nothing that bad as of now
Rants/Raves: I have literally canceled all holiday events because I am just way too tired at night to attend my work xmas party, my besties x-mas party. I fell asleep at my desk at work the other day.
Questions:
GTKY: Have you thought of anything nursery related yet? If so, share your ideas! NO IDEA! I'm just kinda taking it day by day at this point.
