Any Milestones this week? she started getting herself if the downward dog position, its so cute, she can pull herself up on her knees and then tries to get up onto her legs but cant yet.

CD/DPO: CD 14/1 DPO
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: at home test next month if AF is a no show
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I find myself planning ahead a lot more that I should. For example, we bought a 3 bedroom house with the intent of making it our forever home and right now the extra rooms are mostly empty. I keep wanting to turn my closet room into a craft room or an office space but I'm hesitant to do anything semi-permanent because I want it to be a baby room. I know it's silly...
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 23!
How are you feeling? Pretty good. Overdid shopping Friday getting our registries done and my lower back locked up. Not fun. But it's better now. And my potassium full green smoothies made my restless legs go away.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? H just texted me this morning wanting to do a 3D ultrasound. He found a place close by and a price that's not too bad. Since all my medical bills are 100% covered we might do it. Anyone else get it done?
How many weeks: 12!!
How are you feeling? Fantastic, finally! I actually have energy to do things around the house. I tend to tire out halfway through but at least I'm not too tired to do anything. I've been getting mild headaches here and there, but no migraines for over a week now!
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? DH and I were talking about baby stuff last night. We discussed names, nursery, registries and basically everything. He doesn't understand why we need a registry at all, because (besides clothing and diapers) he thinks the baby will only need a crib, carseat and highchair. I laughed really hard at that. He has no idea what we are in for!
Re: baby stuff - H said all they had for his kids were a car seat, pack and play to sleep, a jumper, diapers, wipes and bottles. So he helped pick the big stuff out and mom and I went back and did everything else.
TTCers:
Cycle/Month: 11/11
CD/DPO: 12
W2O or 2WW? W2O
Testing plans: started OPKs yesterday. That is all.
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I really hope I o a little earlier than the last few months because if I don't until normal cd 18ish, we will be just starting our vacation, and the first night is going to be in more of a guesthouse/hostel sort or level of accommodations! Lol not excited about sex there!!
How many weeks: 32 tomorrow !!!
How are you feeling? Still feeling pretty great. Belly is getting bigger so it's getting harder to do things like bend and put socks on, but basically no complaints. My sisters best friend just recently suffered a very late term loss and I have vowed to not complain about anything more pregnancy related as long as he is active and healthy.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? we were supposed to do maternity pics this last weekend but wound up rescheduling first due to rain then due to the fact that one of my eyes blew up with sty and was about 3x the size as the other eye! Been wearing my glasses for days and hoping the swelling is down by this weekend!
How many weeks: 28 weeks, woohoo 3rd trimester!!!
How are you feeling? Exhausted. My tiredness has increased about 10 times. I can't wait to sleep at night and can barely wake up in the morning. I'm getting excited to know that my baby will be here in about 3 months!!! I can't wait to meet him or her
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Why do people think it's ok to say "My goodness you're so big." I'm on track with weight gain and really only have gained in my stomach. I'm not that big in my opinion for 7 months and my feelings get really hurt when people say that to me. 3 different people at 3 different times said it to me today at work. I went home ready to cry.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks:20w4d
How are you feeling? good finally! except yesterday I was crampy, which stresses me out even though I tell myself it's probably just growing pains
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics?
So... DH was rushed to the hospital from work on Friday night, and was diagnosed with a kidney stone! (which all the nurses proceeded to tell us was the closest thing a man could come to feeling labor pains). Once I knew he would be ok, I had a hard time not laughing when I was holding his hand and the nurse was telling him to breathe through the pains. Then he'd move positions, I'd rub his back... it was a weird preview/role reversal of what's coming in October...
and here's a pic from today:
ETA- @sjs1013
Ugh! people suck, you look great! the office lady asked me if it was twins, no triplets, then laughed. I have gained 0lbs, I have to try to gain weight now (kind of nice as someone who has always had to watch my weight) I know it's just something people do, so I try not to get too upset about it, but when else in life is it okay to comment on these things? (I haven't encountered any unwelcome belly touchers yet, but if I do I plan on touching their stomach in return and looking into their eyes until they feel super awkward and go away...)
How many weeks: 37w4d
How are you feeling? Really uncomfortable. You can tell baby is running out of room. The movements, though not actually kicks, can be quite painful.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Here we are yesterday!
I hope I didn't sound AW yesterday but it's really bringing me down. Today I got from a few people that I'm really big again. I told a friend I was punching the next person who told me I was big in the face. I walked out of her classroom and someone said, "Oh my God, you're waddling! I don't think you'll make it til August if you're already waddling." She got imaginary punch #1. Then I went into my boss' office to let her know I'd be a little late tomorrow because I have an ultrasound. I walked in and she was like, "Wow, you really popped!" Punch #2. My dad got punch #3, but only because he was annoying the crap out of me, not because he called me fat.
It's funny that this will be the first month we haven't had EOD leading up to O from like CD 12 on because we were just too damn busy. So we only hit O-1 & O. It's funny how easily I still get optimistic because in my mind, maybe that will be the thing that makes the difference! haha Anyway, so I'm out and will be spending my 2WW on vacation and hopefully not thinking about this at all. And if I'm not KU when I get back, my dr appointment to start thinking about IF is the next week.
Have a great memorial day!!
