First doctor appointment: Haven't scheduled yet, my midwife usually doesn't see people until 12 weeks.

I am so much more anxious this time around, I cant wait to be out of the first trimester and start to feel this sweet babe wiggle around. Hoping and praying I have another baby to cuddle this Christmas.

@Montanamama: @ModernDayJibarita: so far some experienced moms in here! Congrats!

First child? Third! I have two girls, 4 and 14 months.

Here’s my test. I was so nervous that I couldn’t wait until I got home. I took it in the Target bathroom while holding my 1yr old.

I wasn't sure if this board would end up being active, but I'll join in:

How far along: 7+4
First child? 2nd, I have a 15 mo
First doctor appointment: today
Any symptoms so far? Nausea, exhaustion, which diclegis makes that much worse.... Probably about the same as last pregnancy but having a toddler makes everything way more exhausting.

Had the first appointment today and everything so far looks good. Measuring 7+5, 7+3 based on LMP. Plan is to get NIPT once I'm far enough along, and another US in a month.

@Clementine12: I had a couple of losses before my first pregnancy, and am now AMA, so I also have been cautious and haven't really acknowledged that it could actually, maybe work out. Keeping my fingers crossed for your first appointment!

@Clementine12: Thank you! DS was nearly two weeks late, so I figure we'll see what happens if it ends up working out. On the bright side, I wouldn't mind having an excuse to stay put this year for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

@Clementine12: DS was a Jan baby, and having our own Christmas the year I was expecting him was lovely. Last year we made the extended trip (multiple flights, long car ride) to see my family, and while I love seeing them, DS got air sick multiple times and the trip was absolutely miserable... So I'm all for having an excuse to stay put!

@bhbee: Thank you!!! I was so nervous!

Feel like crap. Nausea & headaches all day everyday (but thankfully no vomiting).

Got a fetal doppler and have heard the HB a few times so I announced at work since it was getting ridiculously hard to hide the bump.

@Clementine12: 9 weeks or so. I'm 11 now. It popped around the same time with my son as well.

@ModernDayJibarita: Congrats!!!!! We're also having a

How do you all feel about holiday names? This is mostly for fun, but my mom has been campaigning hard for Noelle as a name (she says no one thinks of Christmas with the name Noelle )

It's not a real contender for us, but what do you think? What names are you currently considering?

@Clementine12: Sneaky peeking on this board. I love the holiday-named trend for Dec babies. I have FOUR family members born on either the 24th or 25th of December... Yes, you read that correctly. My aunt (Christmas baby) is named "Joyce" for "Joyus." My nephew (DH'S side) is "Noel." My great aunt (24th b.day) is Noelle. AND, my cousin is "Jubilee." My husband, his sister, and DS are all Dec babes as well but have "traditional, non-celebratory names."
