  November 2020

  Estimated Due Date/Weeks + Days: 6/13, 9+2 I think
  FTM/STM/STM+: FTM
  Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: Finding out. I have a feeling I'll be team blue
  Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: chocolate truffle
  Upcoming appointments: 11/24 and 11/25 for physical and ultrasound
  How are you feeling?: just generally exhausted. My stomach has felt really tight in the past couple of days, if I even stand up too straight, it stretches my belly and makes me feel queasy.
  Rants/Raves: I feel like it's been so long since we got our BFP, and it'll be a long time before we announce to our friends (aiming for around Christmas time). Trying to eat healthy is also hard.
  Questions: None right now.
  GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish? I love a good mashed potato. I know the turkey is the star, but I live for the side dishes.

  Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: Finding out on Thanksgiving! Can't believe it is just 2 weeks away. We keep calling her baby sister, so we will see! 
  Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: canapé
  Upcoming appointments: Tomorrow! Excited for our ultrasound and NIPT
  How are you feeling?: Today is a good day, took Zofran yesterday and it lasts a day or two for me, so it is nice having energy and not feeling sick all day. 
  Rants/Raves: We went to BuyBuy Baby today to try out a stroller that I wanted to know if I liked it in person for black Friday sales. I love strollers. And that H has learned to just roll with it when I want a new one. 
  Questions: 
  GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish? Oh so many! I think I like the whole meal together. There is something about stuffing with mashed potatoes with gravy with Turkey. And we have a family dish we call purble stuff, that is a cranberry marshmallow salad (midwestern thing to put marshmallows in salads). 
  
  @wendy838 I made shepherds pie the other night for supper and made extra mashed potatoes. So I have been eating mashed potatoes for days now! They just hit the spot!
