    𝗘𝗗𝗗 / 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀 + 𝗗𝗮𝘆𝘀: July 12th! 

    𝗙𝗧𝗠/𝗦𝗧𝗠/𝗧𝗧𝗠+/𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: FTM

    𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁/𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲/𝗣𝗶𝗻𝗸/𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻: bouncing baby boy 🩵

    𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴? Pretty tired, we got back from our baby moon yesterday and had the most amazing time but my husband and I are not great vacation relaxers. We set out with the intention of chilling out and doing very little but we ended up walking several miles each day. We just love to explore! 

    𝗥𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀/𝗥𝗮𝘃𝗲𝘀: 
    Rants: We were only gone for a few business days but I came back to a swarm of messages. I even had people trying to get ahold of me while I was out of office. I plan to speak with my manager this week about setting boundaries with the team, but it’s hard since I’m the head of my department and a lot of work gets bottle necked with me. 

    Rave: my sister should be having my niece in the next few days and I can’t wait for her arrival! 

    𝗤𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: how do you find the DMs on the bump app? 😅 maybe this should be obvious but I’ve had a hard time tracking it down. 

    𝗚𝗧𝗞𝗬: Who is your celebrity crush? 😻 🔥

    A young Dermot Mulroney or Heath Ledger (rip)

    @peach93 it's not obvious at all, it randomly seems to appear and disappear for me!! An "inbox" should at least sometimes show at the top of the page when you're in posts like this. You do have a message waiting for you! 

    And Heath Ledger was also my crush! One of my friends even reached out to check on me the day news of his death came out because of how big my crush was.

    𝗘𝗗𝗗 / 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀 + 𝗗𝗮𝘆𝘀: June 3!

    𝗙𝗧𝗠/𝗦𝗧𝗠/𝗧𝗧𝗠+/𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: FTM

    𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁/𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲/𝗣𝗶𝗻𝗸/𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻: 🩷 

    𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴? Welp, looks like this July baby is actually a June baby! Developed preeclampsia last week and am being monitored at the hospital until 34 weeks when baby makes her debut. So far we’ve both been stable since getting to the hospital and I’m feeling much better with the medication they have me on, versus how I felt for the last couple weeks.

    𝗥𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀/𝗥𝗮𝘃𝗲𝘀: Trying to stay positive and get ready to welcome this little girl into the world. As always, my husband has been the rock that keeps me grounded. And I’m feeling very lucky to have such great support from my friends and family as well as all of you here ☺️

    Used to be Billy Joe Armstrong lead singer of Green Day 💚 

    I may not reply after the delivery, but good luck in the rest of your pregnancy journeys mamas!

    @redseawitch oh man! That sounds stressful! It sounds like you are taking it in stride and I’m so glad you have such great support for the curve ball. I’m so glad to hear you are feeling better. Praying things go smoothly for both of you!

    **posting here, but assuming most have made the switch to FB. 🥲 ** 

    𝗘𝗗𝗗 / 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝘀 + 𝗗𝗮𝘆𝘀: 34w2d 

    𝗙𝗧𝗠/𝗦𝗧𝗠/𝗧𝗧𝗠+/𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: fourth and final

    𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁/𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲/𝗣𝗶𝗻𝗸/𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻: thinking pink, but won’t know until the big day. 

    𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴? Huge and swollen, but in better spirits. 

    𝗥𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀/𝗥𝗮𝘃𝗲𝘀: We had such a great Memorial Day weekend. Full of friends and activity, then yesterday had a down day as a family. It was nice to have such a great weekend. The next few will be filled with house projects for the sake of my own sanity before the baby comes. 

    𝗤𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: Does everyone have a name picked out?! We have had ours since we started trying to conceive, but now I’m kind of wavering on our first name for a girl. My husband is staying firm, so maybe it’s just cold feet? It’s a double name situation (poor girl- packing in a lot with our only girl - if the baby is a girl. 🙃). Just seems like a mouthful (it’s three syllables, like Mary-Kate) when we could just go with the first part as her name. But it could also be a boy and a total non-issue. 🫠

    𝗚𝗧𝗞𝗬: Who is your celebrity crush? 😻 🔥

    I would say Mr. Darcy (especially as depicted in the Kiera Knightley 2005 version). Not an actual person, but famous in my heart. 😉

    Aww it’s funny because we are considering giving our baby 2 middle names, but also wondering if that’s just too much😅 I think double first names like that are very cute and I have known several Mary Kate’s, Laura Beth’s, Lori Ann’s, John Mark’s, and the like! That said, I suggested maybe a double first name instead of 2 middle names for our baby, and for some reason my husband didn’t love it, he thought that was more popular in the south lol but I don’t know if that is true at all. 🤷‍♀️ I think your baby’s double name would be beautiful!

    I should make the move to FB but I don’t really use FB anymore so I still checked this and I liked seeing your update:)

    @routtymama still popping in here as well, but definitely more active on the Facebook. I'm not a huge fan of Facebook but it definitely cooperates better for me than this app lol! 
    As someone with a 3 syllable first name, the reality is likely they will end up with a 1-syllable nickname or shortened version of the full name! It sounds like you're fine with the first part of the name, so it doesn't seem to be an issue if her legal name is longer but everyone ends up using just the first part!

    Aw I’m glad I’m not alone! I was nervous to post at all thinking everyone had already made the move! 

    @watermelonsunshine I hear you! It will either be a double first or two middle. Sounds like husband wants to stick with the double first. I can’t tell if it’s because he actually likes it better or just doesn’t want to reopen the discussion. 😜 

    @butterflyhunny totally get being more on Facebook than the app! The app can still be so glitchy for me! Good point about the nickname. I do really love the first part and wouldn’t mind it at all. :) Just hope she isn’t annoyed with such a long legal name, but hopefully it’ll just give her more options if she decides she wants something different in the future.

    I won't lie, it's a little annoying having a long name, but in the grand scheme of life not a big deal 😊
