1. How far along are you this week? 16 weeks tomorrow 2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? Not really. This is one of those in between weeks. No appointments, still waiting to show, still waiting for movement. I'm in the "Am I really pregnant?" stage of pregnancy. 3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? I never bought into the hype with the Rock n play, bumbo, or any of the exersaucer type seats with the first and won't be getting them for this one. 4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? It Happened on 5th Avenue.

1. How far along are you this week? 36 weeks tomorrow
2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? If all goes according to schedule, I'll be having this kid 4 weeks from today. HOLY CRAP. I'm suddenly feeling really, really unprepared, and annoyed that I can't finish working on the baby's room until H helps move some other stuff out of it. My other vent is about our basement, which was supposed to be finished with a room for my parents to stay in by now...but work hasn't even started yet. It's a long story but it's making me really crabby.
3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? Haven't decided on a video monitor. We didn't have one for DD and did OK without it.
4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? Love Actually, Elf
2. I'm just so stressed out trying to get everything ready! I feel like my house is a disaster and the nursery isn't done and I can't believe we're so close!! I'm sure it will all get done, and even if it doesn't it will be fine, but I'm starting to panic.
3. For now we aren't getting a rock 'n' play. I'm open to getting one once the baby is here if I decide it's necessary, but we already have a pack 'n' play, a swing, a co-sleeper bassinet, and a cradle (which rocks), so I really feel like it isn't necessary.
4. I love so many, it's hard to choose! Probably my favorite is the Muppet Christmas Carol

1. 27.5 weeks 2. M/S has returned with a nasty vengeance. I hate you m/s! 3. I hated the Moby. Way too complicated for my use. I was much happier with the ergo and the newborn insert. 4. I love The Holiday!

1. How far along are you this week? 25 weeks
2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? We got the results from the Maternity21 test back on Friday and everything came back negative. So baby's club foot is most likely an isolated incident and not related to one of the Trisomies. That was a huge relief off my mind! While we still don't want to know the sex, they told us that everything in those chromosomes was normal too. So cool what they can do with just a little bit of blood these days!!
3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? I'm not sure. I put a lot of the highly recommended stuff on my registry, who knows what I'll actually end up with though.
4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? Elf & Christmas Vacation are at the top of my list!
1. How far along are you this week? 8w5d 2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? The nausea eased up over the weekend, but seems to have returned a little today. It's so hard to tell if I'm hungry or just nauseous. I have one more appointment with the RE on Thursday and then I'll start going to the regular OB after the holidays. I'm going to miss the weekly ultrasounds! 3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? I haven't really thought that far ahead yet, but my H insists that we stick to the bare minimum. If it were up to him, the baby would probably sleep in a dresser drawer. I will probably get sucked into every gadget out there. 4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? Not that I can think of off the top of my head.
1. How far along are you this week? 10 weeks yesterday. 2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? Nada 3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? Not a clue yet. 4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? Love Actually and White Christmas

I'm a day late because I had this all typed on my laptop at work, thought I hit submit and didn't. Found it this morning!
1. How far along are you this week? 29 weeks 1 day 2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? Nursery is being painted this week, shower is set for January 24, I'm getting excited and scared all at once! 3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? The Rock 'N Play (hangs head in shame). I have a mini crib, a swing and a vibrating bouncy seat so I'm going to work with those first. 4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? I love Christmas Vacation, but I also love this one from the early 80s called "One Magic Christmas" with Mary Steenburgen, it's cheesy 80's Christmas awesomeness
1. How far along are you this week? 36 weeks, 1 day 2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? I feel like we still have so much to do! And our glider was supposed to be here last week but apparently was damaged so UPS didn't deliver it. 3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? No mobile for us either. 4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? It's a Wonderful Life is one .
1. How far along are you this week? 16 weeks and 3 days
2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? This week has been incredibly painful. Constipation, spasms, cramps and what not. It's scared me and I'm looking forward to the OB appointment this afternoon. Crossing fingers that everything is good.
3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? I'm wondering if I need a crib at all or if I can get a bassinet/mini crib and transition to a toddler bed.
4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? Not really.

I'm late. Sorry
1. 34+6 2. Baby has been getting hiccups daily, and it is hilarious. 3. I hate strollers, we have a jog stroller for running only and got an umbrella stroller for when she's older and we're travelling. The good old snap-on strollers or traditional stroller I have no intention of buying, and intend to babywear as much as I can. 4. Love Actually.

Another late post:
1. How far along are you this week? 8 +4 2. Pregnancy-related AW/vents/randoms for this week? Saw the baby again today (after a scare last week, this was our scheduled "first" appointment. He/she still looks good! For randoms, I feel like I am so bipolar about finding out/not finding out gender. 3. Is there one baby related item everyone swears by but you aren't buying/doing? Its no. 3 for me, so I'm going by what we actually used the first two times vs. what we didn't. We never really got any use out of (a) diaper genie (b) baby-making blender, (c) cart cover. 4. Do you have a favorite holiday movie or movies? Not a particular one, I'm partial to watching with my kids the old cartoon ones from when I was growing up.
