Ya know how bad the TWW is when you just.can't.wait.to.test?!?! Well, I feel like that's how I'm feeling right now... Our ultrasound is next Friday (11 more days!) and I can't wait to see our baby! I'll be 21 weeks and haven't had an ultrasound since I was 9 weeks. I'm just so freakin excited!!
What can I do to help pass time?!

I'm with you on this one! I don't see my doctor for another 17 days (yes, counting down!) and I'm hoping he will tell us the sex then since I will be 18 weeks.
In the meantime, I've been browsing baby clothes online ;-).

Fun! When I was around that time in my first pregnancy I was so anxious to start my registry. I wanted to find out the gender, so I put things for boys and girls on there and when I found out I just deleted all the boy stuff.

How exciting!
Play a bunch of old wives tales to see if the us matches (if you're going to find out)
Set up a guessing pool, lol.
Do a TON of window shopping!

@lamariniere: I've been counting down since my last appointment.. don't feel bad!! And if I browse, I'll buy! Hahaha!
@artbee: I started a wish list a few weeks ago but we're team green so everything I pick is gender neutral. I have pretty much bought everything there is to buy too.. Oh boy. It's gonna be a long week!!
@Cara M. 17: I'm the last one to have an ultrasound done on our boards. I'm so jealous of everyone!!

@Dandelion: Old wives tales sound fun! Not finding out, but it'd still keep me busy for... an hour! 
Thanks!!
@lilteacherbee: 8 days?! Sheesh... Didn't you just have one? LOL! I am getting so anxious to see our baby!!!!!!!!

Oh, I completely understand this one!! I've been counting down to little mini milestones my entire pregnancy. I find that it helps to make sure I'm busy every day - so I plan to meet friends or do little jobs to the house and before I know it (oh, who am I kidding, 11 agonising days later) it's time for my ultrasound or whatever!

@Ash: I know, and I'm the last one that's finding out! At least it's a short holiday week. Hopefully you have fun plans this weekend.

@Cherrybee: Hahahaha! Yes! I try... Ya see, here's my problem. I'm a nurse on a peds floor and we're super slow in the summer so I'm at home on some of the days I should be working (ie, killing time). *sigh* and I have NO energy to clean. Hmm, DH might appreciate if I do. Maybe that will kill time today at least!! 
@Dandelion: I'm pumped! Gonna try some out today!!

@Cara M. 17: Ooooooo, good idea!! Once I get through the week, it really should fly by! *fingers crossed* I can't wait to hear if you're having a girl or boy!!

@Ash: We made a bunch of plans this weekend to help the time to by! The anticipation is killing me! I know I won't sleep Sunday night!

@Cara M. 17: I'll probably be at my appt a day early just waiting... Bahahaha! Not really, but I'd like to be!! I'm trying to make plans for as many days as I can! Glad we're in the same boat!

@Ash: I've been calling the perinatal center every day to see if they have any cancellations for Friday so I can get in sooner!
honeydew / 7909 posts
@Cara M. 17: That's hilarious!! I already switched with someone at work to have the day off and my mom is coming up for it so there's no switching mine! I hope you have some luck getting in sooner!!
@swurlygurl: I know! It's funny because I thought the ttc tww was ridiculous! And now this! Ahhhhhhhhhhh!

@Cara M. 17: Eeek! It's already Friday! One week left for me and only a few days left for you!!

ahhh so exciting! I passed the time by obsessively googling photos of ultrasounds, and youtube videos, of the same week I would be at my US

@sorrycharlie: oh man I totally youtubed u/s videos when I was waiting to get mine done. I had a bad habit of googling ones where people would find out they were having multiples.
@Ash: only a week or so longer! Hope the time is flying by! Make a list of things to do around the house, and try to accomplish be item off the list every day! I like to read to pass time too. Do you play Candy Crush? It's a good time waster!

@sorrycharlie: Oooo, good idea! So far, the week has flown by. Next week could be worse though.
@delight: I do not... for the sole purpose of not wanting to be addicted. Hahaha! HB is enough of an addiction!
I tried to get one of the nurses or doctors to sneak me in a room to do an u/s today but no luck! Booooo!! They said I could do my own but I'd probably see the magical parts I don't want to see!
