Re: Group 2 (May 9-16) Weekly Check-In
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Going back and forth between finding out and Team Green.
Baby is the size of a(n): Blueberry
Upcoming appointments: US October 11th
How are you feeling? Pretty good. I have lots of symptoms but they're all manageable. The fatigue and constipation are getting tiresome though.
Raves/Rants: I'm so excited to take the kids to Disneyland next week! They've never been and have no idea we're going. I'm not sure when we will tell them.
Questions: Nope.
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? Christmas, for sure! I love everything about it. I'm one of those who puts a tree up the Friday after Thanksgiving. And I love it even more now that I have young kids. It's so much fun to see their excitement.

Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n):
Blueberry
Upcoming appointments:
28 October
How are you feeling?
Nauseous. Exhausted. Some insomnia. Sore boobs. I don’t want things to touch me. Very emotional and sensitive.
Raves/Rants: it’s Monday and I am legit so behind on laundry it’s not funny. I lost my motivation as soon as the nausea showed up but I have got to at least do something about the mountain of clothes.
Questions:
Nah.
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday?
Christmas. I love all the twinkly lights and the searching for the perfect present and the peppermint mochas and the decorations and the magical memories my children make.
@ruby696 are you guys doing Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween?
ETA: autocorrect
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding Out
Baby is the size of a(n): jellybean
Upcoming appointments: October 11 for an ultrasound, October 14 for first OB visit
How are you feeling? Pretty great, which still worries me. Very occasionally I have some gaggy/nausea feelings. No fatigue though. I am bloated and my skin is going crazy at my chin and jawline. Also more thirsty and peeing more frequently.
Raves/Rants: I hope this week flies by, I cannot wait for my vacation this weekend!
Questions: Nope
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? Hmm, so Independence day has always been up there. We put on our own show and hang out with friends and family all week/weekend. Halloween is probably equal, we usually go all out with costumes and decorations and used to throw Halloween Parties. Now a days I am starting to really enjoy Christmas. I love the way the decorations make the house feel so cozy and seeing how magical everything is through DD eyes is amazing.
- BFP: 3/10/16 — Baby Girl born 11/20/16
TTC#2 April 2019@mdfarmchick Laundry is just so hard to keep up on in general, even when not pregnant.
- BFP: 3/10/16 — Baby Girl born 11/20/16
TTC#2 April 2019@mdfarmchick Laundry.. ugh. Laundry is just one of the things I do and MH was desperate last week and caught up on it for me
@m6agua ohh Independence Day is a good one. Sounds like you guys do it up big for it. It also makes me think of watermelon which sounds pretty delicious right now...
EDD: 5/14
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): Tic Tac
Upcoming appointments: Friday!
How are you feeling? Nauseous and tired. Also getting nervous.
Raves/Rants: Have any of you guys watched "The Americans" on Amazon Prime? It is so so so good. We started a couple weeks ago and it has really not been great for productivity...
Questions: Nope
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? Definitely has always been Christmas. I love the decorations and the coziness and the excitement.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Was team Green, now that there are two, definitely team finding out!
Baby is the size of a(n): blueberries!
Upcoming appointments: Next Monday US
How are you feeling? Still so freaking tired. The nurse told me to start taking unisom at night, and I think it’s helping, but I think I’m just getting more exhausted due to hormones at the same time.
Raves/Rants: I’m starting to think they are actually growing in my boobs! My itty bitty B-cups now require a D-cup bra.
Questions:
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? I love the whole Thanksgiving to New Years season!
@mdfarmchick I soooo feel you on the laundry! I’ve managed to get mine washed, but folding it and putting it away just isn’t going to happen!
@ruby696 I like the cupcake idea!
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: finding out! Just mailed in my sneak peek test actually
Baby is the size of a(n): wild strawberry, gummy bear, kidney bean, or raspberry depending on the app
Upcoming appointments: this Friday 10/4!
How are you feeling? So exhausted. It’s awful. And I have a cold or something on top of it all.
Raves/Rants: exhaustion is killing me. School assignments are killing me. No raves right now I feel like crap.
Questions: nope
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? Thanksgiving used to be until MH’s family got so dramatic over it (and other holidays). His parents are divorced and fight over who gets which holidays and always claim we visit one more than the other. Any time we combine families in a neutral setting it still ends up in drama or a fight and someone storms out early. So maybe Christmas/Hanukkah is my fav now? Haha.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding Out
Baby is the size of a(n): Raspberry
Upcoming appointments: Going to suck it up and make one soon, I promise.
How are you feeling? Sick, emotional, tired, needy.
Raves/Rants: I’m so glad I’m not feeling good because that’s usually a good sign, but it’s making me very needy and isolated because we’re temp living with my IL’s which is miserable and I miss my husband all day long as I solo parent with an audience.
Questions: nope
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? I pretty much love this stretch from October to New Year in general, but Christmas is the favorite.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): raspberry
Upcoming appointments: 10/15 for first prenatal appt. Hoping they do another ultrasound so H can see it (since he couldn’t make the pregnancy confirmation appt).
How are you feeling? OK. Insomnia - DD keeps waking me up and then I can’t go back to sleep. A tiny bit nauseous. Wasn’t very sick with DD, so maybe this is similar I guess. I know it’s more pleasant, but of course the flip side is that it can feel unsettling.
Raves/Rants: Stressed about getting our apt packed up for our move in a few weeks. So much to do!
Questions: none
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? Easter is pretty great. My H and I have a tradition of going to my Aunt’s house for the weekend and spending some time with her and my Grandma. It’s nice to have a holiday that’s not all about my immediate family and all that drama and logistics. We hang out, order in food, and (this past year) watch a movie once DD goes to bed. Then family comes over on Sunday. I also like that it’s springtime then and everything feels new and fresh and full of possibilities. Wonder if we are going to be able to do that this year given the timing...hm.

EDD: 5/13
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding out!
Baby is the size of a(n): peanut m&m
Upcoming appointments: nothing until 10/22
How are you feeling? pretty decent - a little nausea and lots of difficulties deciding what sounds good to eat
Raves/Rants: I wish I wasn't so busy at work so I could spend more time on the bump with you lovely ladies lol I prefer to do my bumping during business hours but that isn't happening lately
Questions: none
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday? Christmas! I think because of the big lead up and anticipation. I'm the type to start listening to Christmas music on November 1st. I'm excited to be pregnant for the holidays this year (DD was a September baby). I think my biggest struggle though will be not eating the cookie dough from holiday baking lol
