Let's see if we can get group 4 going again. I know I've been super absent for a few weeks because of work travel and general tiredness...
EDD/weeks+days: I'm so confused on this, according to LMP I'm due 5/26, but I was measuring a few days off at 5/30. They said since it wasn't a full week off, they weren't going to change my official due date, but all my testing should be based on the 5/30 due date, so now I feel like I need to keep track of two due dates...
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Team Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n):Strawberry
Upcoming appointments: I have another appointment next Monday, I need to do an early glucose test, and a bunch of extra blood work because I delivered DD at 31 weeks. I'll be extra watched this time around.
How are you feeling? It depends... I have some good days, but I've been feeling sort of down and sort of crappy. I have off and on nausea, and I'm still so tired. My boobs are out of control!
Raves/Rants: I had a great weekend, we did family pictures, and I think we got some really good shots of all of us! I'm so happy about that.
Questions: none
GTKY: What are you currently reading, if anything? Or what’s a book you suggest to others? I'm reading "Positive Discipline" it was recommended, and I'm hoping for some tips on how to deal with my crazy 3 year old. One of my favorite books is Memoir of a Geisha. I highly recommend it!
@lfritos thanks for getting this started! I think due dates are pretty general, mines been changed by a day three times. Happy to have pseudo company on the 30th ;-)
EDD/weeks+days: 5/30 or the 28th or the 29th...
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Green
Baby is the size of a(n): Poly pocket
Upcoming appointments: Nurse intake at OB Weds
How are you feeling? Better than before. I play trivia every Monday at 7 and there were a couple weeks that by the end i couldn't even formulate any answer, any words, i was so exhausted. Last week i felt a little more peppy so hopefully things keep getting better.
Raves/Rants: Hubby has been getting the message of dividing labor more which makes me so thrilled. Yesterday when talking about daycare he volunteered to call and setup the tours. Today, I think after hearing the cost, he wants to discuss our options further. Hehe, cannot wait to hear his plan but so excited that he is thinking about it.
GTKY: What are you currently reading, if anything? Or what’s a book you suggest to others? I read a lot. Currently reading "Rebecca" for book club which is an old thriller and "Girl wash your face" which is good. The best i have read recently is "Where the crawdads sing."
Our Journey:
Me: 40 TTC since 2017 3/18-9/18- IUI's 11/18- IVF #1 1/19- IVF #2 8/19- DE Cycle #1- 5 PGS tested normal 9/19- FET #1- SUCCESS! May 2020 10/21- FET #2- SUCCESS! July 2022
Upcoming appointments: 11/12 for 12w appt and first u/s
How are you feeling? Like shit. I just want to sleep til I'm due.
Raves/Rants: Target stocked Christmas stuff! I'm a happy girl! I also got the combo swing/seat I wanted for the baby on clearance. It's small and nothing special, but it's perfect for while I'm working upstairs. I can store it in my daughter's closet when not in use, so I don't have to lug anything up and down.
GTKY: What are you currently reading, if anything? Or what’s a book you suggest to others? I just finished "Your Best Year" by Charlotte Lucas and "Four Christmases and a Secret" by Zara Stoneley. Good stuff.
@lfritos, with my first the due date changed a few times early on. It doesn't really matter, baby will come when she/he wants hehe.
EDD/weeks+days: May 25, 11w2d
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green:We got our NIPT results yesterday and we are team pink!
Baby is the size of a(n): Lime, poker chip
Upcoming appointments: Nov. 12 NT scan
How are you feeling? Still nauseous but lately it comes and goes. I am sleeping much better since I pulled out my snoogle from storage.
Raves/Rants: So relieved that we got negative/low risk results from our NIPT, now hopefully an easy NT scan and we can relax.
Questions: Any suggestions on sibling books? Trying to talk through the pregnancy with my DD1 who is turning 3.
GTKY: What are you currently reading, if anything? Or what’s a book you suggest to others? I finished the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a Halloween classic, I re-read it for October. I am also reading the Elizabeth Warren autobiography. @theprezelchick, maybe it’s time for Christmas books for me too

Baby is the size of a(n): Not sure I deleted all the apps but I'm sure the same as you guys.
Upcoming appointments: I need to call my midwives to see if I should transfer to Dartmouth or if I should still see them. I'm not sure how that works out billing wise which makes me slightly nervous. I also want to make sure I can go to that practice and not have to see the OB who scheduled me for a D&C before Dartmouth told me to cancel it and come see them. I feel I should be getting the glucose tolerance test pretty soon and don't want to miss that because of GD last time around.
Other than that I have an appointment at Dartmouth with the MFM and the really cool 4D ultrasound on 12/6 which is forever away.
How are you feeling? Pretty much in limbo with nausea still and not wanting to eat anything. I also need to murder who ever believes in day light savings because my daughter thinks 4:30 is her new wake up time and i just can't.
Raves/Rants: With everything going on yesterday MH completely forgot to call or text his mother happy birthday. Part of me is really happy about that because he was so focused on us yesterday that he didn't even think of his mother. He did send a card this weekend so she got that, but still.
Rant: It just started snowing outside. ugh.
Questions:
GTKY: What are you currently reading, if anything? Or what’s a book you suggest to others? I'm currently reading for the last few months Where The Crawdads Sing, I was doing good reading it during DDs bath time but then I started using that time to clean her diapers and fold laundry which seemed more productive. It's pretty good so far as I remember.
One of my favorites that a lot of people haven't read, The History of Love by Nicole Strauss I think that's the right author. It's a love story that spans many years and it's just something I really loved.
@cmhme and @queenklau I'd be fine with my EDD being whatever they choose, I'm more confused why they have decided to use one EDD for some appointments and tests, and the other EDD for the other tests. I am not clear which one to use for what, so there is confusion when there doesn't need to be.
@jhysmath you have had a long week! It's great that your husband was so focused on you!
@thepretzelchick I feel like all pregnant women should get a pass to sleep whenever and wherever!
