  • Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: July 28/ 6+2

    Baby is the size of a(n): sweet pea

    Upcoming Appointments: December 14 (counting down the days!)

    How are you feeling?: Tired. The increased heart rate is freaking me out. Sore boobs. 

    Rants/Raves: Rant: It feels like time is crawling by while I’m anxiously awaiting my first appointment. Rave: MH is out of town all week, so I’m looking forward to cereal for dinner and catching up on Real Housewives and Dear John!

    Questions: How’s everyone’s nausea? I haven’t had any yet but my sister said hers started at 7W. I feel like I’m bracing for it!

    GTKY: What is your favorite holiday tradition you do with family or friends? My mom started a new tradition of getting all the girlsmayching monogrammed Christmas shirts, which I’m looking forward to again this year. I watch Home Alone and Home Alone 2 every holiday season   
  • Est Due Date / Weeks + Days:

    4+5 today
    I hope it's ok if I join you ladies? There isn't an August board yet, and considering how early DD arrived, I expect this LO to be a July baby.

    The tip of a shoelace

    Upcoming Appointments:

    First appointment is December 13th

    How are you feeling?

    Mostly just tired and constipated for now. Nausea comes and goes, but it is definitely way less than I have experienced in the past.

    Rants/Raves: 

    I miss not being able to smell very well. Between the dogs livestock there are terrible smells everywhere at home.

    Questions: none for now

    GTKY: What is your favorite holiday tradition you do with family or friends?

    We really only have 1 holiday tradition. We pick out a Christmas ornament as a family each year to commemorate that year. It's always so much fun finding the perfect ornament.

  • @JNR6510 You def belong here! I almost put “July 25 and later” in the title. I’m sure there are several of us due in July that will end up giving birth in August and vice-Versa! I love your ornament tradition. It’s always so special putting up the Christmas tree when the ornaments are special and meaningful! 
  • EDD - Aug 2, 5w3d. I figure I'm a cusp mama, last week of July to first week of August. 
    Baby is the size of a Pencil eraser
    Upcoming appts Dec 18 (ugh too far!!) 

    I feel like I'm still on the edge of AF coming, but with nausea and exhaustion. Finally over the caffeine withdrawal, so I got a tiny boost to energy. Oh, and I managed to give myself a smell reprieve by not taking my allergy meds, lol. 

    Rants and raves - I hate the 12w waiting game. Especially since I'm a "geriatric" pregnancy at 41. My goal is to stay off Google as much as possible

    GTKY - Holiday Tradition
    Every Christmas Eve, we have tamales and munchies for dinner. Everyone gets to open one present  which always contains a book and PJs. PJs are worn that night and during gift opening Christmas Day. The adults play Cards Against Humanity over wine (guess not me this year! ) while the kids watch Polar Express and Grinch.

  • Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 6+4 / July 25th 

    Baby is the size of a(n): Ladybug

    Upcoming Appointments: First appointment is Dec 17th

    How are you feeling?: Nausea is starting to kick in. So hungry some days, and not so hungry others :/ 

    Rants/Raves: Not too much going on...just anxious for my first appointment. It's also killing me to not tell my kids...They will need to wait until January (or maybe on Christmas...) because they will tell the world! They are 4 and 2 and will be so excited...they talk about another baby all the time. 

    GTKY: What is your favorite holiday tradition you do with family or friends? On Christmas Eve we exchange pajamas! We all go to bed all comfy in new pj's and its the best!

    Rants/raves: We went out of town for a wedding without our toddler and I thought my fatigue and nausea were clearing up, but as soon as we got home and busy again, they’re back! Should have known it was too soon for that to be true!
    Questions: none
    GTKY: making Christmas cookies and decorating the tree.
  • @srobertson102618 Friebds of ours gave us an extra crib they had when they moved to Alaska, so we’re good there. I must confess that I have been looking at lots of dressers as possible changing tables on various furniture websites!

    with my last 2 pregnancies my first dating ultrasound was a week off pushing my edd back an entire week from the first day of my last menstrual cycle

  • Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 6w5d

    Baby is the size of a(n): sweet pea

    Upcoming Appointments: December 12

    How are you feeling?: I’ve never been more exhausted in my life, and it’s the time of year when my seniors are asking for letters of recommendation, so I’m bascially crying every single day.

    Rants/Raves: we have one staff bathroom shared among like 25 teachers, and I’m really frustrated that I’m not ready to share why I have to pee every thirty minutes and will cut someone off for it without thinking twice.

    Questions: this is my first pregnancy, so I question every single pulley pain and whether falling asleep at 6:45 is happening to anyone but me.

    GTKY: What is your favorite holiday tradition you do with family or friends? My favorite tradition is cooking and eating cabbage with my family on New Year’s Eve (idk where the tradition came from), but the thought of cabbage alone is enough for me.

  • Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 6w+4d

    Baby is the size of a(n): Chocolate chip!

    Upcoming Appointments: Not until 12/20, and it's only with the MW because my doc is booked until January!

    How are you feeling?: Comes and goes in waves. The last 2 days I could have forgot I was even pregnant. Today back to icky, crampy, tired feeling all afternoon. And peeing every 30 min!

    Rants/Raves: DH invited a friend over for Christmas day, which is when we were going to tell his family. Now that throws a wrench into our whole plan. His friend has no family around but wish he would have cleared it with me first. It'll be terrible to have the big reveal to his family and then "Oh but wait, you cant talk about it the rest of the day."

    Questions: How's everyone trying to keep up the not drinking charade during the myriad of holiday parties?

    GTKY: What is your favorite holiday tradition you do with family or friends?

    Baby is the size of a(n): something really small

    Upcoming Appointments: December 21st! Earlier than I thought! 

    How are you feeling?: tired 

    Rants/Raves: this hyper sleep sucks.  We live in a 3 bedroom condo and just got a cat a few months ago.  I smell her litter box every time I walk by.  I can also tell when she's used it because I can smell it in get.

    Questions: what can I do so I don't smell the litter box?

    GTKY: What is your favorite holiday tradition you do with family or friends? Christmas Eve, hanging out and watching movies and eating snacks. 
  • @meandlittlebabyb I drink Tito’s & soda with lime typically, so at MH’s holiday party, I just ordered club soda with lime. Looks like you’re drinking. (Make sure the bartender doesn’t try to put it in a different taller glass)
  • Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 7/25 - 6 weeks 5 days

    How are you feeling?: Exhausted, nauseous, overwhelmed

    Rants/Raves: I'm irritated how hard it was to get an appointment with my dr. I had my annual scheduled and they made me reschedule. Unfortunately, I have other things going on and just because I am now pregnant I had to insist more than once I needed to see the dr before the official. 

    Questions: none

    GTKY: What is your favorite holiday tradition you do with family or friends? Relaxing! We are a busy family. I love the holidays because we get to spend time at home. 
  • The morning sickness finally hit me this week. Anybody else? Any go to remedies you've tried or heard of? I'm already into acupuncture so I plan to continue that for MS.
