I had my blood drawn for FTS and MaterniT21 yesterday, and my nuchal scan is a week from tomorrow.   Fingers crossed for everyone on our tests!

It does seem like it is going faster than last time, which I can't complain about.  I guess between DS keeping me busy, and lots of stuff going on at work, I have less time to think about it.

Another exciting change is that we might be moving before baby is born! We had been talking about moving in the next year or so but circumstances have sort of pushed us to make a move a bit quickly. It's exciting but also scary to think of moving while pregnant.

Are you moving far?  Yes, moving while pregnant is definitely intimidating.   But it must still be better than moving with a newborn/young infant, right?

Not sure I should confess how many I've used at this point. I had internet cheapies from LAST time, which were all expired but apparently worked fine, and then ordered more to confirm.

I was really hoping the nausea was going away... Last night I woke up in the middle of the night with a familiar-but-not-recently-felt stomachache. Yep, sick again. And tonight we had Amy's frozen pizza for dinner, which didn't sit well, and has now resurfaced. Blech!! I'm feeling horrible and my poor kids are the only ones around to help. I wonder if restarting my meds/supps has had something to do with it? :headscratch I'd been too sick to take them in a few days but did last night. It's just Armour (thyroid), 5HTP, and prenatal. Not sure they'll be going down tonight.

My MW said when she came that we'd have to get together again SOON because she didn't have as much time as she wanted that day. But we've all been sick and my dad's in town so we haven't done anything. I'm hoping it won't be too long, though, and maybe we can hear baby again! I finally looked at the "fruit size" ticker for this week and see baby is "lime" sized - 2"! And kidneys are functioning! Pretty amazing. I'm 11.5wks now.

My kids are really hoping baby comes in July, because they don't want to wait. So sweet to see them so excited!

That's so cool.  I looked and it's interesting how they have to get further asd further off as you progress (either have to be the right length or the right weight).  I like it:

You think so? Am I nuts then!? I specifically timed It so I'd be moving with a very young infant. Granted I have extenuating circumstances that made giving birth in the place we may move difficult. But is it going to be awful?!

I know this is an old thread,but I'd rather move with a very young infant. I find the "tired" of being pregnant so much worse than the lack of sleep "tired" that comes with a new baby.  The only difference to me is that moving while pregnant would get me out of a lot of the work.

I moved less than three weeks before Bee was born and found that easier. I could do a lot of the prep earlier and my church came and unpacked us. I had a great birth with her, but it took a good 6 weeks before I was ready no miss my naps and get back to normal energy.

Pregnant really does get you out of a lot too. My  moving guys tucked me up in moving blankets in a chair by the door and I just had to tell them everything.
