Q: Pregnant people POLL?

I'm 19 weeks with baby #1... Curious about a lot!
If you're a mom already with more than 1 child just answer these questions for your FIRST pregnancy...

1) at what point did you start to buy baby clothes?
2) how far along are you and when did you find out you were pregnant?
3) how old are you? Or how old were you when you first became pregnant?
4) have you ever suffered from a loss of pregnancy? How far along were you?
5) what do you (or did you) want to have if you could chose? a healthy boy or girl? (And what is it if you actually know the gender)
6) if at any point in pregnancy, you finally felt like you were past the danger zone, when was it?
7) how far along were you when you could feel it first move?
8) when did you feel the first actual kick?
9) when do you plan on having a baby shower or when did you?
10) when in your pregnancy did you tell people you were expecting?
11) did you (or do you) watch what you ate?

1. We haven't bought any clothes yet. We just found out the gender on Monday and since, I have gotten a LOT of hand-me-downs (which is great, I don't have to buy something the baby is just going to grow out of in a month) I'm 21w1d
2. I was 3w6d when we found out!
3. 27
4. I had a m/c in May of this year. I was 5w I would not wish that on my worst enemy.
5. I really wanted a boy, because girls are too sassy. We are having a Daddy's girl in April. It's still growing on me that we are having a girl.
6. I felt like I was out of the "danger" zone at my 11w appt when the Dr gave us the "in the clear"!
7. I was 12w5d when I first felt "flutters"
8. I still at 21w don't feel actual kicks, she rolls a lot
9. I am having 2 baby showers 1 for home and 1 for church. The home one is hopefully on Feb 9 and the church one will probably be soon after.
10. We told our parents when we got the blood test back. Everyone else was a week later.
11.I really try to st

1) I started buying baby clothes the day we found out the gender of the baby (around 16 weeks)
2) I was about 3 1-2 weeks when I found out! VERY early!
3) I was 19 when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter (I am now 23 & pregnant with #2)
4) I have never suffered a loss, thank goodness!
5) My first pregnancy, I wanted a healthy baby girl and got her! This time I want a healthy baby boy and will find out Dec 22! Fingers crossed for a healthy boy! :)
6) I felt much better after about 24 weeks just because I knew if ANYTHING happened and the baby was born early, it had a good chance of surviving! Ready to get there with this baby!
7) I was about 17 weeks when I felt flutters!
8) I felt her kick around 20 weeks!
9) I had my baby shower at about 32 weeks pregnant!
10) The first pregnancy, we told everyone right away, this time, we are going to tell Christmas (at 14 weeks) with my daughter wearing a shirt that says "merry chirstmas to me.. because im a big sister to

1. I've been buying gender neutral (but cute- not plain yellow & green). I'll buy a lot more when I find out the sex.
2. I'm 16w3d, and I found out Sept. 8th.
3. I am 27, I found out the day after my birthday
4. Early miscarriage/chemical pregnancy in April. I know it was for sure now, because my cravings are exactly the same as what I was eating constantly in the few weeks I was pregnant then.
5. I'm 99% sure its a boy. I would need to see lots of U/Ss saying its a girl before I would believe it, but I will be so happy regardless!
6. As soon as I saw the baby in the first u/s at 10ish weeks.
7. Felt the movements in the last week or so. Like a goldfish swimming around.
8. Haven't felt kicks yet, but its early.
9. Planning a shower for mid-April, since baby is due in May.
10. Told hubby right away, immediate family a few weeks later, and close friends when I had my 10w u/s. Extended family on Thanksgiving.
11. Just eating health & cutting sugar!
