    Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 22 weeks

    Baby is the size of a(n): coconut

    Upcoming Appointments: in 2 weeks they start fundal height and heart rate checks

    How are you feeling?: good about the pregnancy.  Trying out names.  We've narrowed it down to 2 and I'm picking one at a time to "try to think of her as.." and see if one feels more natural than the other or if one jumps out haha. One has been our girl name for 4 years,  the other is a new suggestion,  so its hard to balance that...

    Rants/Raves: 
    DH us awesome and let me sleep in both days this weekend and he got up with DS

    Questions: 

    GTKY: physical feature you hope LO inherits  from you and one you hope LO inherits from dad?
    Me - blonde hair
    DH - thick hair. (Eta or metabolism...)
    Do i have a thing about hair?  Haha

    @BigBadWolf12 Yay for sleeping in! I thought I was going to today but Baby Girl decided to do some kickboxing at 5am

    Aug 2; 22w2d

    Baby is the size of a(n):
    Coconut

    Upcoming Appointments:
    a week from tomorrow

    How are you feeling?:
    Mostly good, I’ve had a lot going this week so I’ve been pretty tired

    Rants/Raves: 
    It went from 70s earlier in the week to 40s today. Crazy! 

    Questions: 
    Not this week

    GTKY: physical feature you hope LO inherits  from you and one you hope LO inherits from dad?
    My legs and butt and MH’s non-fair skin 
  • @heml noooo kick boxing.  Good call on the non-fair skin....I burn so easy :'( 

    Unrelated but new since I posted my check in - DH felt her kick!  She was going crazy and I saw my belly move so I told  DH to hold his hand there and of course nothing. ..... but then the tiniest little kick and he was like "oh I felt that" and I was like WHAT?  I hardly felt that lol. But he knew exactly when it happened and I gave no hint that she had moved,  so it seems legit lol

  • Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 8/5 21+6

    Baby is the size of a(n): large banana 

    Upcoming Appointments: 4/16 for another ultrasound. Baby girl was stubborn the first go around and wouldn’t show her face so we get a redo. I’m not mad about it lol. 

    How are you feeling?: good! 

    Rants/Raves: rave: we’re going to the beach weekend after next and I found 2 cute maternity bathing suits. Can’t wait to be relaxing on the sand! 

    Questions: none 

    GTKY: physical feature you hope LO inherits  from you and one you hope LO inherits from dad? From me I hope she has my thick hair and from my hubby I am praying she has his green eyes 
  • mkrelmkrel member
    @newmamakt Where are you going to the beach?

    Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 22+2  8/3

    Baby is the size of a(n): Corn on the Cobb

    Upcoming Appointments: 4/12 24 week appt

    How are you feeling?: Good, but I need to get my workout motivation back.  I have been slacking lately.

    Rants/Raves: My husband and I are taking a weekend away, and I am so excited to relax and have one on one time with him!

    Questions: Any other anterior placenta ladies in our group? I am feeling more movement, but still nothing like my last pregnancy.  

    GTKY: physical feature you hope LO inherits  from you and one you hope LO inherits from dad?  My husband has never had a cavity and has perfect vision so I hope she gets his teeth and eyes.  From me, I hope she gets my curly hair.  My daughter has it, and I feel like it will make life easier if they both have curly hair so they don't have to be jealous of one another's curly or straight hair.  
  • @cmessamore - So glad to hear you're feeling better. Fingers crossed the rest of your pregnancy is uneventful!

    @mkrel - I also have an anterior placenta. I think I may have felt some movement, but it's been so subtle that I'm not sure if it's actual movement or gas or something else. My doctor said that I should feel more regular movement by 26 weeks.

    Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 12 w + 2d

    Baby is the size of a(n): endive

    Upcoming Appointments: later this month for a regular appointment. I have to make an appointment for a follow up AS - they didn't get optimal shots of baby's thoracic cavity the first time. I'm excited to see the baby again, especially because I haven't felt any movement, so hearing his heartbeat and seeing him is always reassuring. 

    How are you feeling?: Ok. I can't get rid of this cold. I thought I was feeling better on Saturday, so I went to the gym and for a hike, but I overdid it because I was on the couch all day yesterday and don't feel awesome today. 

    Rants/Raves: 

    Questions: Has anyone else not started decorating their nurseries? We still need to clear out the extra room and paint before getting anything, but I keep putting it off. Seeing people post pictures of their ready nurseries in the nursery thread makes me simultaneously excited and stressed

    GTKY: physical feature you hope LO inherits  from you and one you hope LO inherits from dad? I hope he gets my skin and hair and my husband's teeth and smile. 
  • @mkrel I have one twin with an anterior placenta, I don't feel the movements on that side as strongly as the other twin with a posterior one

    @newmamakt I'm jealous of your beach vacation! I really hope to be able to take one in May..they're my favourite

    Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 22 weeks

    Baby is the size of a(n): Coconuts

    Upcoming Appointments: I had my OB appt bumped up from next week Monday to this Thursday so 4/4

    How are you feeling?: Pretty good except for a random bout of throwing up that happened yesterday,

    Rants/Raves: Finally had my half gender reveal and one twin is a girl! Waiting a few more weeks to check on the other one

    Questions: Anyone dealing with swollen feet yet? I'm on the verge of throwing out all my shoes

    GTKY: physical feature you hope LO inherits  from you and one you hope LO inherits from dad?
    My nails.. lol
    Their dad's thick dark hair
  • @mkrel we’re going to orange beach in Alabama. I normally prefer destin, fl but my hubby wanted to shop at the outlets near orange beach which was ok with me! 
  • @sw1122 LO will be in with us and then we will probably put the kids together after that so.....no nursery prep here lol.

    @nimo-ad congrats on one girl!

    @sw1122 No real nursery prep here either because we don’t plan to have a “nursery.” We’re in a 2 bedroom apartment in our downtown area. We don’t plan to be here forever, we’d like to buy in the next year or so, which means there’s no reason to create (read: spend money and time on) a baby room. Plus, we want to still have our queen guest bed. We’ll put LO’s crib in the guest bedroom (I have this on my May to do list) and we bought a changing table that will be in our room. Glider will go in the living room.
