Buddies for Late January/Early February Babies!

[Hopeful.89]

Enjoy your holiday Amanda!

Thanks Navy - I have used EO for years and have a lot of experience with their safety, proper usage, risks, etc. I use them over Meds anyday!

I had my first prenatal appointment yesterday, pretty uneventful just got lab work ready and took my weight and asked me questions. I don't go back until end of June. He said if there are no risks I will stay with him (Family GP) until 30-32 weeks.

Only symptoms I have are frequent urination, extreme fatigue (yet cannot sleep at night), and a bit of nausea.

I have a general appt tomorrow, so that I can get a referral to a special Dr to see who is also at my regular OBs practice.

 

[Hopeful.89]

That's good they are in the same practice! It makes things a little bit easier.

 

[NavyLadybug]

Yeah, I'll have to see them both as the first is a general OB while the second is a specialist and will be the one to preform my C-section. I'm half expecting them to change my due date again once I get a scan on the 17th. They changed DS's 4 times haha First it was August 4th (which I believe was his actual due date), then July 30th, then July 27th, then July 23rd but he ended up coming on July 2nd haha

I have an appointment on Monday with my gp for a referral... I feel so bloated and fat... :'(

 

[NavyLadybug]

Hopefully you can get an OB appt soon Anti and bloating is normal

So what are all you ladies calling the little ones? I call ours Peanut (boyish to me since that was my fathers nickname, but also Unisex) DH calls them Sweet Pea cause he's Team Pink haha

 

[Hopeful.89]

I am calling him/her Baby H (H is the first letter of our last name). DH calls him/her peanut.

We call it the fruit of the week. So right now, blueberry!!

We haven't really called ours anything yet... Maybe once we've had the scan something will come to us.

OMG Ladies, I just discovered something amazing! I don't know how many of you use Amazon.com, or even have Amazon Prime for that matter, but Amazon has a program called Amazon Mom and you get all kinds of awesome discounts of baby products and certain household items! I just got it and I saved 50% off diapers I just bought. I got a 124pk for 16$ that was originally 35.95!!!! I pasted a link for it down below if anyone wants to give it a shot. With babies on the way, any money saver is good!

First bfp showed up May 26. Blood test confirmed on May 27.
EDD via lmp is Feb 3. EDD based on O would be feb 4. 1st ultrasound will be June 12.

 

[NavyLadybug]

Hello, FLArmyWife!! How are you with symptoms, any noticeable ones yet? Are you Team Blue, Pink or Yellow/Green?

 

[FLArmyWife]

We won't know gender until a gender reveal party. Either way we'll be happy as we've been trying for about a year.

Only symptoms are fatigue and hunger. I'm hungry every 2 hours. And I guess bloat (which seems to be coming and going).

 

[NavyLadybug]

I love gender reveal parties! I want to have one so bad, but we have no friends or family here :/

I meant is there a specific gender your hoping for I'm Team Blue myself, I'd love another little boy so that's kinda what I'm leaning towards, but DH wants one of each so he's Team Pink and hoping for a girl haha

I get that trying for a year. We tried for 13 months with DS and nearly 8 for this baby. DH and I were elated

 

[FLArmyWife]

No we don't have any hopes either way.

Thankfully back when we first decided to try we told only about 5 close friends. one of them was my maid-of-honor. She has offered since then to throw a gender reveal party, so that's fun.

 

[NavyLadybug]

Aww, that's sweet of her! We just moved here to VA (From FL) in Jan and all our families are in TN and our few friends in TN and FL sooo yeah haha No baby shower, no gender reveal and probably no one here when the baby is born but that's aright. Just more family time between the 3-4 of us
