| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome back to the Bristos Made a Baby podcast. I am your host, Becca, and I am the |
| 0:07.9 | pregnant mom who we are talking all about in this podcast. If you guys have been following along |
| 0:15.2 | all these years, this is technically season four because this is baby number four. My husband Matt and I are expecting |
| 0:24.2 | our fourth child this upcoming March and we don't know what we're having. It's going to be |
| 0:30.3 | another surprise baby, which is super fun. And in today's episode, I am going to be talking |

| 1:28.2 | So as far as how I was feeling, I wrote feeling really good. |

| 1:49.3 | The earliest I think I've ever started to like no longer be nauseous. |
| 1:54.8 | I want to say is like week 17. |
