That is so awesome! So happy for you! Hopefully I'll be joining you soon! Started BD'ing every other day and started with OPK's. Leaving in 4 days for a 9 day vacation, I need some relaxation and stress relief soooo bad. Hoping that I'll be ovulating while on vacation so that I could relax!

Omg!!! Yay!! Congrats! Looks like that vacation worked for you!
Mine is going good so far! I've had about 3 weeks of nausea and food aversions but still haven't gotten sick at all. Then woke up yesterday feeling all better. Hoping it lasts!
How far along are you? Do you know your due date yet? I'm so excited for you!!

According to calculators online, my due date is around December 26-30. I'm about 4 weeks along now. I'm feeling great! Tomorrow is my first day back at work after a long vacation. Work is about 65 hours a week. However, this weekend I'm going away again. Very busy few weeks for me! I'm going to call the doctor tomorrow. I probably won't get an appointment for a few weeks. Do you think that is okay? I can only go on a Saturday so I'll have to wait for an opening. What is your due date?

Most doctors won't even see you until after 8 weeks, so I'm sure it's fine. Just make sure you're taking your prenatal vitamins regularly!
I'm due around November 20, so just about a month ahead.
I'm super jealous of your long vacation! I've already been denied 2 days off in September that I requested the first week of April. It's really hard for me to get time off.

I hope my doctor doesn't want to wait until 8 weeks! When did you get your first sonogram picture? Are you showing yet? Are you finding out the gender?

I had my first sono at 7w+1d. I convinced them to let me come in a week earlier than they wanted bc I wanted to tell my family on Easter.
I've definitely gained some weight around my waist, but I would not say I'm showing yet. I have a little extra around the middle to begin with, so my fat may hide it longer anyway. Yes, we'll find out the gender. I'm guessing sometime in June.
I just can't wait to get to 12 weeks now so I can make it public!

How did you share the news on Easter?
I just made the appointment for my first sonogram on May 20 and the first appointment with my doctor for May 29. So I won't be able to tell my parents on mother's day. My husband thought that was too soon anyway. We don't want to find out the gender. Hopefully we will be able to stick to that!

Well, plans for Easter with my big extended family did not exactly pan out.
I had already surprised my immediate family on my dad's bday and my loud mouthed grandma was present. So, I made her swear that she could keep the secret until Easter (2 weeks). I didn't know that we were all celebrating separately this year, but I had promised my grandma she could talk about it after Easter. So, I ended up just calling everyone individually or texting some of my cousins on the day of my sono. It was not how I had envisioned, but it was fun hearing them each react individually.
That's great! Only 1 month away!! My next appt is Apr 30 and I think I'm going back for my 12 week sono the week after that. Cannot wait to see how much my baby has grown. He/she still looked like a tadpole last time!
I'm really hoping we can do one of those cheesy gender reveal parties. That way it's still a big surprise, but we are able to prepare a nursery and clothes, etc.

Went to my dr today, thought it was just a general checkup and blood draw, but they decided to do a scan and I'm so glad she did!
Got to see baby swimming around, arms and legs all squirming about. The baby even flipped over while we were watching it! Heartbeat was 166. The dr used the word "perfect" to describe everything, so I'm over the moon.
Unfortunately the machine broke while we were in progress, so I didn't get a print out, but I go back May 11 for the NT scan, so I'll get pictures then.

WOW!!! Perfect? That's so great! Happy to hear everything is going well. I go for my first ultrasound on May 22. I am counting down the days until I get to first see what is going on inside of me. 21 more days to go!!
