Raves/Rants: every time I get another scan, my due date gets pushed back. But I think this time it's too far and I'm not growing as well as I should be. Hopefully the doc can answer it tomorrow.

Upcoming Appointments:
We had our first appointment today and our u/s said we're measuring a week behind. I'm not too worried since I have long irregular cycles and just have an approximate ovulation date. Even with knowing my ovulation date with DD1 and DD2 they both measured 5 days behind in the first u/s. We have a follow up in two weeks to get our official due date.
How are you feeling?
Exhausted, nauseous on and off, sore nipples, headches
Raves/Rants:
Questions: I have a large corpus luteum. Doctor said that it didn't have any blood in it and its something to watch but no big deal. She said I might have more cramping on that side. Anyone else have this happen in previous pregnancies?
GTKY: What would your dream vacation be?
I really want to go to Iceland and see the aurora
Edit to add question
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: finding out (I hate surprises)
Baby is the size of a(n): raspberry
Upcoming Appointments: FINALLY see the high risk doctor on Friday. I'm hoping he'll be able to send in the request for my dating ultrasound.
I feel like they move so slow here to get you in compared to other people.
How are you feeling? Okay. Tired a lot, dizzy and out of breath. I wish I wasn't working so I could spend more time with DS.
Raves/Rants:

Team finding out/pink/blue/green: finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): Altoid
Upcoming Appointments: First appt on Monday!! It's been the longest wait ever it seems. I really hope they do an US.
How are you feeling? Overall decent. Tired, queezy, sore boobies.
Raves/Rants: I want to tell EVERYONE and also don't want to tell anyone yet because I dont want the unsolicited "advice". Only 2 sets of close friends know so far. Getting to our parents to tell them is getting to be complicated and I just want them to know already!
Questions: is it too soon to buy maternity pants? So uncomfortable in my jeans..
GTKY: What would your dream vacation be? Staying in an over-water bungalow in Fiji or Bora Bora 😍

Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Team Green
Baby is the size of a(n): Lady bug
Upcoming Appointments: Oct 1st
How are you feeling? I am feeling okay. Some times are worse than others but overall feeling good. I have been overly emotional this time around as it is are third and this baby was quite the shock. The emotions are getting to me for sure.
Raves/Rants:Hating that my husband is not showing the same concerns about going from Man to man to zone defense as me. He really doesn't understand the major changes this will cause for our life going from 2 to 3.
Questions: Anyone else nervous about going from 2 to 3?
GTKY: What would your dream vacation be? Greece
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Finding out... I suck at waiting.
Baby is the size of a(n): Blueberry
Upcoming Appointments: First doctor appointment on Friday but I’m pretty sure it’s just going to be bloodwork, paperwork etc.
How are you feeling? Nauseous and tired and super emotional this week. I have cried everyday this week over stupid stuff.
Raves/Rants: This has been a super stressful week and I haven’t made it to the gym since Saturday. Working out has always helped me deal with stress and not getting my workouts in is not helping my current stress level. Also I am really anxious for my first ultrasound which at this point hasn’t been scheduled. I just want to know everything is okay. I’m 38 so I’m really nervous about this pregnancy given my age.
Questions: None right now.
GTKY: What would your dream vacation be? Croatia! My Mom’s family is Croatian and I would love to take her there!
Baby is the size of a(n): blueberry
Upcoming Appointments: on 9/23 will be our first appt and sonagram
How are you feeling? Nauseous in the morning typically. Overall, tired but not unbearable.
Raves/Rants: We’re heading back from a beach vacation so maybe I’ll have more to rant about next week. I’ve loved having a little summers ending vacation!!
Questions:
GTKY: What would your dream vacation be? A cruise with my whole family. I love cruising but we haven’t taken one with the whole family yet. I have 4 kids (hopefully 5 in April!) I want them to experience cruising while they are young. It seems like it could be so much fun for them.
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Not sure! I think it would be kind of fun to wait! But we are having a hard time settling on a boys name so if we can’t settle before my blood test then I’ll probably find out so I know if we even need to worry about it.
Baby is the size of a(n): Blueberry (or An Altoid officially today)
Upcoming Appointments: October 15th for my first appointment. My OB is so hard to get in with.
How are you feeling? Overall good! Sore breasts. A little emotional.
Raves/Rants: none at the moment
Questions: struggling with how to tell my sister. She just lost her final IVF embryo at 10 weeks. 😢 trying to be sensitive and also trying not to have her be the last to find out...especially since this baby is a total surprise for me.
GTKY: What would your dream vacation be?
Disney Cruise again. I love them!
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Green!!! We don't want to know!
Baby is the size of a(n): Raspberry
Upcoming Appointments: Next is in October and we'll use the doppler
How are you feeling? Tired, and I've got a little lesion in either my esophagus or tummy lining from so much acid reflux so getting a little tired of the heartburn and discomfort. That said, we saw our baby for the first time yesterday so I'm also on Cloud 9!!!
Raves/Rants: We have a new puppy and I love her but it is HARD not being able to leave the house as often or go out for longer walks right now. Also, she won't sleep in her bed so my husband has been sleeping on the couch with her (his choice) so that I can still get my sleep to grow this little bean. Would really love to have him back in our bed soon!
Questions: Anyone else struggling with finding maternity clothes in store? Everything seems to be online right now, but maybe that's just a Canada thing?
GTKY: What would your dream vacation be? Italy!!!! We were potentially going after my friend's wedding in France next year (her fiancé is French) but their wedding is four weeks after our due date so that's not looking likely just yet. Would also absolutely love to see Vietnam, South Africa, and do a trip to Portugal through Spain through Morocco... can you tell I have a travel bug?
