Eta auto correct
When is your EDD? 2/13/15
How are you feeling? Slowing down and the indigestion is getting awful
What are you craving? Fizzy drinks as they help with indigestion
What is grossing you out? A lot at the moment. Worse than first tri
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? Yes! We had a baby shower a few weeks ago. Got mostly clothes, picked up our awesome jogging stroller off a Cliff find and I just got a diaper genie and a few yet to be opened gifts at work today
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? Friday is my next appointment. Just a biweekly check
Have you / will you found out the sex? Girl
Any names picked out? Haha a short list but no name yet
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? OK we have our awesome prints I can't wait until the end of this week when I can get in there and organize so we can get the pictures up and other details taken care of
Anything else you would like to add or PIP?
How many weeks are you? 14 weeks! Yay 2nd tri!
When is your EDD? 6/25/15
How are you feeling? Ok. I had a lot of bleeding last week, and just hope my body is finally getting rid of it. I hate not knowing when it will happen again.
What are you craving? Sweets
What is grossing you out? Uncooked foods
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? My sister bought several UK onesies for when we told our extended family while we were home. It was very sweet!
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? Next one is on the 8th. It's been weird to not have an appt for two weeks.
Have you / will you found out the sex? Will find out. DH is dying to know!
Any names picked out? Yes, but I'm starting to waiver on the boys names.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? Nothing yet.
Anything else you would like to add or PIP? My mil bought me a mom charm for my pandora. I thought it was really sweet. I also hope my kid(s) are not like our niece. She was a whiny brat while we were home, and now my FIL (who only has one brother and two sons) think all girls are drama queens. Umm...no
Cinnabun and Junebug say, "Go Wildcats!"
32w5d
When is your EDD?
2/17/15
How are you feeling?
I'll give the honest truth. I am feeling slow and fat, and am having a hard time with the double chin that is appearing and the butt and leg fat that has crept back on. I'm also only 9 pounds from what I weighed at my largest time ever in life, and I'm trying to mentally prepare myself for hitting that weight before pregnancy is over.
Nothing really. Food honestly hasn't sounded good and I haven't really had any cravings. However, small frequent meals have become my friend.
What is grossing you out?
Still meat except fish.
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately?
Bought our travel system last week, and H put it together Friday night.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments?
Had an appointment last Tuesday, and had high blood pressure again. So they re-tested for pre-eclampsia and also re-tested my iron to see if I can come off the supplements.
Have you / will you found out the sex?
Nope.
Any names picked out?
Have our running list for the hospital.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes?
Almost fully finished. Just need H or FIL to hang up the mirror at some point, but it's heavy and I have no idea how they're going to mount it.

5/17/15
How are you feeling?
Feeling great! A little bit of indigestion now and again.
Beef Sticks!
What is grossing you out?
Eggs. I couldn't eat them at all during first tri. I thought since I haven't been getting sick anymore, I'd be safe. I tried some scrambled eggs for breakfast yesterday...NOPE.
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately?
I went shopping the day after Christmas and got a ton of clothes on sale. My mom gifted us an entire box of receiving blankets and burp rags that she made, as well as a baby blanket of mine (I bawled). Jimothy's mom and grandma also bought some outfits and a couple of stuffed animals.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments?
Our anatomy scan was last Monday. Everything is looking great. They couldn't find the pulmonary valves well, but said it was nothing to be concerned about because the rest of the heart looked great. We'll go back in three weeks for another peek. They also said he was small for his age, but after getting the report from the peri, they had it listed at 20w3d and I was only 19w1 on the day of the scan.
Have you / will you found out the sex?
Yes!
Any names picked out?

Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? My four younger siblings (all under age 10) made a stocking for the baby for Christmas and put a pacifier, sippy cup, baby chick- shaped bath cloth, and bumblebee-shaped snack bowl in it. It was adorable. They were so excited for me and DH to see it all!
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? GD testing/2nd tri testing on New Year's Eve.

Any names picked out? No progress.

Currently on Metformin and Synthroid
EDD: 6.15.15
Mobile won't let me copy and paste the questions so as soon as I can get on our tablet I'll post mine.
How many weeks are you? 28w 2d
When is your EDD? March 21
How are you feeling? Overall, I'd say good but whiney me says, tired, not sleeping well, and tired of only a handful of foods tasting/sounding good. Force feeding/eating crap is making me feel fat and yucky but nothing semi-heathly sounds good.
What are you craving? Chocolate which I normally don't eat much of.
What is grossing you out? Mostly everything. Meats especially.
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? Got a few outfits for Christmas. And we ordered the dresser topper/changing table.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? Regular appt is 1/6. I never heard back about my GD testing, so I'm assuming no news is good news.
Have you / will you found out the sex? We did - team little man.
Any names picked out? Yep! But it will be secret until birth.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? We're getting somewhere with it. I posted pictures of the feature wall in an AW post. Now to find a glider. The room is pretty small but I am determined to have a glider in there.
Anything else you would like to add or PIP? I'm starting to get anxious. I know he needs to keep cooking and that we have so much to do, but I'm so ready to meet this little guy. So much to look forward to and I also am a control freak so I'm ready to see how labor and BF will go.
When is your EDD? 05/04/15
How are you feeling? Having pretty bad sciatica pain. It sucks because I have a lot of projects to do and can't do them.
What are you craving? Nothing really.
What is grossing you out? Nothing.
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? My mom bought her a pacifier and we bought a crib this weekend. While browsing through craigslist, I came across a Jenny Lind style crib for $75! It needs to be refinished, but I just couldn't pass it up. I decided to be smart and not spend a ridiculous amount of money on the one crib that I love. A little piece of my heart broke when I bought the $75 crib though, not gonna lie.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? Next monthly appointment is the 7th.
Have you / will you found out the sex? It's a girl.
Any names picked out? Decided on Aria Isabella.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? I ordered some fabric swatches this weekend. Hopefully they will work and I'll be able to get started on the bedding I plan on making.
Anything else you would like to add or PIP? Just getting a little anxiety about how fast this pregnancy is going. I feel like time is just flying by and I'm not going to have enough time to finish all the things I want to do before I get too big to do them.
Best part of week: playing basketball outside with him. But really, we had a great week. 1.5 is such a fun age!
Worst part of week: dropping him off at dc this morning.
Milestones: he's really starting singing and will sing "Let It Go." It's so cute :x

PIP those kiddos!

How are you feeling? I am actually in a similar boat as @brij2006, I feel slow and fat, and pathetic. I don't remember being so physically restricted with Adalyn...Other than that (and the heartburn), I'm doing pretty good. Just starting to get nervous about juggling 2u2.
What are you craving? Chocolate and sweets. And sandwiches...
What is grossing you out? Nothing
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? My parents, ILs and siblings got a few small gifts for T for Christmas (clothes mostly). I got a few clothes on clearance at Target too, and a changing pad cover to match his room.

Already Mommies:
LOs Age(s): 15 months this weekend
Best part of your week? Christmas, she was much more into it this year and it was cute to watch her get excited when she unwrapped gifts and realized there were dolls and fun toys inside. She wasn't interested in the clothes though. Except the slippers she got, she wanted those put on right away.
Worst part of your week? Not last week, but the week before my poor girl ended up with fifth's/roseola and a UTI.
Milestones? Her communication skills get so much better each week, it's really amazing to watch her grow mentally.
PIP those kiddos!
How many weeks are you? 17+1 today
When is your EDD? 6/9
How are you feeling? Pretty good. Some indigestion, headaches, and cramping here and there.
What are you craving? Nothing in particular, but definitely not anything healthy.
What is grossing you out? Not chocolate, that's for sure.
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? Oh boy. Before Christmas, a friend gave us an Amazon gift card for a soft structured carrier; we're going to take a while to decide what we like though, I think. Then we visited the ILs, who gave us/me a belly belt (I hadn't heard of it, it's like an elastic band with a button that you use instead of the rubber band trick on your pants?) and a Motherhood gift card and took me out shopping for some maternity clothes for a conference I'm speaking at next weekend. Then, yesterday, on our way back from the ILs' place, we stopped at a cloth diaper store to try on some baby carrier options and ended up starting our diaper stash.
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? Next monthly appointment is on Monday 1/5, but we're still waiting to hear about group appointments? A/S isn't scheduled yet, but it should be in 2-3 weeks.
Have you / will you found out the sex? We're officially Team Green! DH surprised me a couple weeks ago by putting "Boy or Girl? We'll know in about 25 weeks..." on the sign he made me for my 15 week blump/bump picture.
Any names picked out? We thought a lot about boy names on our trip, and we have a couple favorites. We still have the same favorite girl name.
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? Nope.
Anything else you would like to add or PIP? Quickening! I've actually been feeling things for a while now, since about 15+4, but I wasn't sure that was what it was until this past weekend.
