Re: TTC Tuesday
How many weeks: 28 weeks!
How are you feeling? Great. I just need to watch over doing it.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Took my Glucose test yesterday, so now I wait for results. Everything else was fine. I'm measuring good, heart beat is good, she even kicked the doppler wand. She doesn't like things in her personal space. She's moving and grooving so much, I love it. My dad got to feel her this weekend.
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? over 11 months, almost 1 =(
How do you feel? itching to work out, stitches come out in less than a week=)
Any Milestones this week? i don't think so
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? nope
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 6 weeks, 4 days
How do you feel? Good! I have my postpartum appt today with my midwife.
Any Milestones this week? We are in the throes of the six week growth spurt. So, eating every hour during the day.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? If you aren't on fb, the first pic is H grilling while wearing J.
I am very happy to report that we are definitely pregnant! He barely had the wand in and we could see something! As of right now we can see TWO babies!
Baby A looks perfect and we heard the heartbeat at a healthy 113 BBM,
Baby B looks good too. We could see baby B's heartbeat but not hear it. So any vibes you could throw our way would be great. Though two is scary, after seeing the heartbeat we can't imagine losing either baby at this point.
The RE gave us the option of an ultrasound at 8ish weeks, or one at 7ish and one at 8ish. I'm not turning down any extra ultrasounds, especially with not hearing Baby B's heartbeat.
So! If you've made it through all that here are some pictures. Baby A is first, Baby B second. EDD 2-15-15!@islandmonkey8 yay twins!!! That is so exciting!!
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 17
How are you feeling? Like time is flying.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Movements are distinct now. No mistaking them for anything but baby anymore. I can still only feel them when I'm still, but I feel them once or twice a day now. My "goatin" pants are extremely tight, every time I sat down in them last night it felt like baby was either kicking or punching the waistband like, "This is my space!"
I can't believe we find out the sex in 3 weeks! I'm so excited, I wish I knew right now.
@goatlady12 - haha yup Eliza is the same way. Nothing in her space... Pillows, waist bands, sink when I'm reaching to turn it on or off. She starts kicking it like crazy... Like the doppler wand yesterday. She's like get that out of here!
How many weeks: 25w3d
How are you feeling? great!
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? DH bought unpasturized milk...where do you even find that!??! so sad I coudn't drink it (now that my milk aversion is over) he bought me some more (pasturized this time!) as a surprise!!! I'm easy to please. haha
@mana8503 J used to kick the Doppler every time the midwives checked his hb
So I just got a really fun email from MIL. DH's family all bought tickets for a Twins game the Friday after my 20 week u/s. She got a free message on the board for the box seats. Anyway, she was going to have it something about the family, but now she's going to call and see if it can be a reveal of baby's sex. DH and I would find out in advance and call it in when we find out. It's a bit showy for my taste, but being that DH and I had our first real date at a Twins game, that stadium means a lot to me. I'm tearing up thinking about it.
Do you all think it's a cool idea or too over the top?
How many weeks: 6w4d
How are you feeling? Welp the nausea has hit me! MS is no joke!! And for some reason my commute has been triggering it too; kind of bumpy and I feel car sick the whole time
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I just really wish time would go faster. I want to make sure the baby is ok in 2 weeks, but it's soooo hard to have these symptoms and not be able to tell anyone why. I was worried I was going to puke the whole time I was on a call with my boss.
:-S
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 12 days.
How do you feel? Tired and overwhelmed.
Any Milestones this week? D got his tongue tie snipped yesterday. Hopefully this helps with breastfeeding.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics?
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)?
4.5 months
How do you feel? Good
Any Milestones this week? Lots of hand sucking and chewing. Rolling from tummy to back.

Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? 3yrs and 13 months
How do you feel? OK. Energy level is up a little since I started treating my anemia but still tired as my kids, more so my daughter, still don't sleep through the night. Getting up 2+ times every night for over a year certainly takes its toll!
Any Milestones this week? A big milestone for mommy! I starred work yesterday for the first time since Feb. 2013! This also means a big milestone for my daughter bcs she still nurses so this is the true beginning of the weaning process for us. She had started weaning herself before but started back into old feeding patterns...this time that won't be an option. Bittersweet really.
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? I usually try to post nice pics but here are a few for a good giggle!
@goatlady12 I know the stadium means something to you, but I think revealing the sex of your baby is something that should be private with family, not 25,000 other people.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 33 weeks
How are you feeling? Over it. BABY GET OUT!!!!! I am tired and tire within an hour of pretty much doing anything. The heart burn still is horrible (I have to try the apple cider vinegar). My hips are starting to spread so they're sore and I'm feeling a lot of pressure.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? We went to the doctor yesterday and he said everything is perfect and on schedule. The baby feels average size. I only have 1 more 2 week appointment and then I go to every week! My baby can be here any time between 4 and 9 weeks, crazy!
I am also starting to feel really large. This week, H's grandparents are celebrating their 70th anniversary, so the family celebrated on Sunday. I felt and looked huge and ugly refused to let people take a picture of me. MIL tried to get H to talk me into it, but I still refused. My baby shower is on Sunday, so I better get into a picture taking mood before then because everyone will want pictures.
CD/DPO: CD 23/ 6 DPO
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: every cycle I say I'll just wait for AF instead of testing with a HPT, but who am I kidding...I'll probably pee on a stick in a week.
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I'm starting my new job tomorrow and I'm hoping to stay there for a while. But I'm also hoping to get pregnant soon, which would mean I wouldn't even be working for a year before giving birth. It's frustrating to think I could potentially be leaving that job soon to raise a baby (I plan to be a full time SAHM) but it's pointless thinking about that now when I don't even have a BFP.
@goatlady12 I'm not sure I would do the reveal at the stadium but I may not be the best example since I never even announced my pregnancy or birth on FB. I think it is a cute idea though.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 27 weeks today! (I totally thought today was Tuesday when I started this, haha!)
How are you feeling? I feel great, except for the yucky humidity and sweating at work. The side of the building that I work on doesn't have central air. We have 1 window A/C for 2 rooms. It sucks.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I don't have today's pic yet, so here's the bump from last week
