— Nothing so far but to be fair we are having another boy (DS is 2) and there’s only a few things we need. I’ll probably wait until around the 24 week mark to start grabbing those.

How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? Symptom-wise, I feel great. I'm quite enjoying the second trimester as compared to the first. Emotionally, I'm all over the place. I'm beginning to wonder if my mood swings would be this bad if life were 'normal', because I think this whole quarantine thing is starting to get to me. As a hardcore introvert, I'm quite enjoying the time at home, but I also am a hard worker and feel very limited in what I can do working from home. I also miss my best friend. She started planning my baby shower, and I wish she and I could go to brunch and I could see her 6yo daughter.

Any upcoming appointments? Wednesday the 29th (routine OB)

GTKY: Have you bought anything for baby? What did you buy?
Yes, we bought our crib from Target (should be here today or tomorrow), and MH's parents bought our travel system during Target's sale too, so it should be here by the end of this week. I've also bought misc. pajamas that I thought were cute, but that was when I first found out I was pregnant (pre-COVID). Babylist also sent me a startup box of baby stuff (pacifiers, samples of diapers & wipes, a bottle, nipple cream, etc).

How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? Still anxious, 3rd NIPT was inconclusive Due to low fetal DNA again. Hoping to get my quad screen results back soon.

Any upcoming appointments? OB appointment 5/&, anatomy scan at perinatologist 5/11

I bought a JuJuBe Harry Potter diaper bag backpack, and I love it. I started building my registry, but haven’t bought anything else. I think I’ll feel better after my (hopefully reassuring) anatomy scan.

@mamaheatherl, I’m sorry your NIPT was inconclusive again.

Which backpack did you get? I just went and looked them up and they are so cute!

@profmcgonagall I got the Be Zealous backpack in the Platform 9 and 3/4 pattern!!! It’s a good size (I think full-size), but not huge with several pockets.
