How are you feeling? I'm feeling alright. Just ready for her to be here and to not be pregnant anymore. I really have loved being pregnant but I'm just ready to be done now.
What are you craving? Nothing
What is grossing you out? Food in general. I feel so bloated and full all the time that I don't even want to eat.
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? No but MIL apparently has a whole trunkful of yard sale finds to bring with her when she comes. DH has told her to stop buying stuff but she won't listen.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? Weekly check-up tomorrow at 3:45. We may set an induction date.
Have you / will you found out the sex? Girl
Any names picked out? Carlee Ann
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? Nursery is done. I wish I hadn't been so efficient in nesting and preparing because maybe I would have more to do right now to keep myself busy in this waiting game.

When is your EDD?
11/18

Overall pretty good.

Nada. It's painted, but that's it. Carpet should be going in this week, and we just ordered the blinds!
Anything else you would like to add or PIP?
Word on the street is that our house will be finished- and we will close on 7/2. As in NEXT WEEK. Eeks. H had movers lined up for 7/3, but being the day before the 4th, I can't take the day off, so I will have to trust H, my folks, and the in-laws. Scary
After 2 years of TTC, lots of tests, and a Hysteroscopy/Laparoscopy to remove several polyps,

LOs Age(s): 6 weeks, 3 days
Best part of your week? He has been smiling a lot more, which I love! He likes to look at himself in the mirror on the piano mat and smile. It is just adorable! And he loves to smile at the ceiling fan!
Worst part of your week? We are going through a growth spurt, so Friday was a fussy day, Sat was sleep all day, Sun was half and half, and this morning has started out fussy. I hope we get through this soon!
Milestones? He is getting better at lifting his head more during tummy time.

We got the Mountain Buggy Terrain and I'm loving it, seriously can't wait to try it out for real. Then I had my last shower on Saturday, and got a lot on the gear front, including the car seat! Feeling pretty ready, just a few other necessities (well, big necessities really...like diapers, ha) and we'll be set!

Mobile nest has been stupid and wouldn't let me respond earlier.
When is your EDD? February 19th, 2015
How are you feeling? Exhausted! That's because we've had family in from out of town for 5 days for my grandmothers' funeral, and have been getting minimal sleep to function. Last night I slept from 6:30-8, then again from 8:30pm-7am. Really hoping I can be in bed by 8 tonight, if possible.
What are you craving? Nothing really. Sill liking eggs, meat, and cheese.
What is grossing you out? Sweets don't sound good. Last night H put a Chips Ahoy cookie in front of me and I gagged. Yuck!
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? Nope. Still being crazy cautious.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? Ultrasound July 9th. It can't come soon enough!
Have you / will you found out the sex? Still undecided, but I have H 70% convinced not to find out.
Any names picked out? Not really. We have a running list we've added to over the past year, but nothing really standing out right now.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? Still a spare bedroom. Hoping to get the electrical work started 4th of July weekend. :-)
Anything else you would like to add or PIP? We had family home for my grandma's funeral, and my mom told my uncles we were expecting again. I was a little peeved that she did, but know she did because we would end up telling them if we lose it.
I told my aunt (she's a Dr and knows every detail to the diet and any medications) and she was a blubbery mess about it. Although she did say that any time we come to visit we will head down to the hospital and she will give me an ultrasound.
She was sad though when we said that we don't want to find out the sex. She said that she will peek during an ultrasound, but won't tell us.
