    I added coffee and wine, intermittent fasted, tried to eat mostly vegetarian (though wasn't always great about this because my brother-in-law and sister-in-law were living with us and cook a lot of meat), cut way back on sweets, and tried to eat mostly whole grain foods.

    WEIGHT AND EXERCISE
    What did you weigh/BMI do leading up to O?
    I was 101 lbs (BMI of 17.1) -- my lowest adult weight, down from 108 when I started.
    Any Weight/Exercise related additional info/comments?
    I did not intend to get this low--I think got carried away running, and even loosening my dietary restrictions I had trouble gaining any weight back or stopping my weight loss. Exercise-wise, I started out running for an hour daily in July, but delayed my cycle in October and November, and so had to cut back to just walking for an hour daily. But I was very faithful about walking each day, and it became a really nice part of my routine!

    Update: Just got our genetic testing back, and it's a...... BOY! We honestly feel mostly just surprised and so happy that he's healthy. Also, after finding out I had to jump right back into a meeting, and my husband and I texted each other the same first and middle name at the same exact time! So that feels like kizmet

    Atomic -- it's a good thing you say over and over again not to read into symptoms, because I had zero nausea with my first son, but this time around I have had the worst morning sickness (I'm almost 12 weeks and it's still going strong), along with all the classic "girl" symptoms. But I made sure not to read into my symptoms because I remembered what you said about your pregnancies being all so different from one another!
    Son one, born 2018
    Son two, born 2021

    Congratulations! My two sons are the bestest of friends 😊 definitely 100% true about the symptoms! All three pregnancies were completely different for me with my first not being able to tell I was even pregnant to the third being sick 24/7 and all were boys!😊
