I'm picking all kinds of random days with these, haha! C&P from GP, as always:
How many weeks?
How are you feeling?
What are you craving?
What is grossing you out?
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately?
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments?
When is your EDD?
Any names picked out? Care to link your BabyNames.com list?
Are you/have you found out the gender?
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes?
Has anyone given you anything handmade? Have you handmade anything?
How did you/are you going to tell your family?
What's your post baby plan? (mat leave/SAHM/daycare)
Have you chosen a pediatrician?
Will baby have a special "coming home" outfit?
How do you plan on preparing any furbabies for baby's arrival?
PIP your bump!!
Bonus question I just made up: how does actual pregnancy compare to how you thought pregnancy would be (does that make sense? I might need more coffee...):

Re: Mommy-to-be Wednesday!
How many weeks? 14w2d
How are you feeling? a lot better, but I think I'm getting a cold.
What are you craving? mexican food
What is grossing you out? nothing right now
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? not recently
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? nothing new
When is your EDD? 8/27
Any names picked out? Care to link your BabyNames.com list?
I'll link my list soon. I'm really loving Zachary, Clark or Kent for a boy (unfortunately, DH didn't get it when I asked him if it was weird that I liked both Clark and Kent), and Abby for a girl.
Are you/have you found out the gender? The week of my birthday in April!
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? It's currently extra storage for our stuff.
Has anyone given you anything handmade? Have you handmade anything? nope.
How did you/are you going to tell your family? we told them with onsies for the grandmothers.
What's your post baby plan? (mat leave/SAHM/daycare) I'm thinking about taking 10 weeks, and then DH will stay home during the day and make his appts. for after I get home. We're hoping SIL can take LO at least one day..and DH will take Fridays off.
Have you chosen a pediatrician? We still have to look into it, but I go to a "family practice" so maybe there.
Will baby have a special "coming home" outfit? way to early for that haha.
How do you plan on preparing any furbabies for baby's arrival? We have a fake baby that we are going to dress up and start carrying around. Pepper was also with us when we babysat this past weekend, and we were up with the crying baby all night.
PIP your bump!!
Bonus question I just made up: how does actual pregnancy compare to how you thought pregnancy would be (does that make sense? I might need more coffee...):
I knew what to expect, but I didn't actually think about how it would FEEL. For example, I knew I would have nausea, but I didn't actually think about how it would affect my day to day life.
How many weeks? 28weeks, 3 days
How are you feeling? really good actually. the third tri has (so far) been the easiest
What are you craving? red meat. which is odd because it tastes soo good but when i think about eating it I very much look like this:
What is grossing you out? hot chocolate and pizza
Have you bought/received anything for the baby lately? not recently
Ultrasounds? Betas? Appointments? i took my glucose test on friday, i am so nervous about getting the results!
When is your EDD? 5/20
Any names picked out? Care to link your BabyNames.com list? Claire Elizabeth
Are you/have you found out the gender? baby girl
How is the nursery coming along? PIPs? Themes? it's stuck lol we have a crib and dresser but before we can do anything else we need some storage things and a glider/bookshelf
Has anyone given you anything handmade? Have you handmade anything? we painted some letters for her name, a good friend is knitting a blanket for her
How did you/are you going to tell your family? we called them the moment we found out haha we were way too excited to keep it a secret
What's your post baby plan? (mat leave/SAHM/daycare) i'll go from sahw to sahm mom. i will still continue all my volunteering though
Have you chosen a pediatrician?
nope, i should get on that
Will baby have a special "coming home" outfit? yes. this one: http://www.carters.com/carters/Animal-Print-2-Piece-Dress-Set/V_121A030,default,pd.html?cgid=carters-baby-girl-dresses
How do you plan on preparing any furbabies for baby's arrival? we have set up all the baby pieces that move or make noise to get them used to that. after she's born dh will bring home a blanket or sleeper that her scent and let them get used to that.
PIP your bump!! none this week
Bonus question I just made up: how does actual pregnancy compare to how you thought pregnancy would be (does that make sense? I might need more coffee...): Time has become an odd thing. I could swear that I found out last week I was pregnant, so in that regard it's flying by. But, every day seems to drag. My appts seem sooo far away and reaching milestones (v-day, each tri, 35/35, etc) seems to take an eternity. Very odd.
