*I'm only posting one check-in for the weekend but please feel free to check-in on both days if you'd like*
Any new pregnancy symptoms, cravings, or aversions?
Upcoming appointments, milestones, or updates? (Ticker change?)
QOTWeekend: What's your snack of choice? Has it always been the same or did it change with pregnancy? Is your appetite in general the same or different than before bedrest?
Open Topic: What's on your mind?
Re: *** Weekend Bedrest Check-in ***
Hi ladies, and welcome @fuccimama ! Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly!
I slept ok, not great, which is pretty standard at this point.
QOTW: My snack choices have definitely changed. A lot of my previous favorites now give me heartburn so I've had to switch it up. I think my appetite has been about the same though.
We spent a lot of time yesterday getting the guest room cleaned out. DD is going to be moving in there, and we'll leave her room for this baby and just change the decor a little bit. We still have a long way to go, but we made good progress! And when I say "we", I mean I sat there and gave directions to my husband
@Fuccimama, you are most certainly welcome here. Here's to hoping for a happy & healthy rest of your pregnancy!!
Yesterday I spent alot of time on the couch, which I haven't done in a while so that led to more bh contractions and some pain from ny sciatica which had been a non-issue until yesterday. Boo!!
QOTD: generally I'll snack on just about anything lol but during this pregnancy I over analyze everything I eat... not because Im worried about the nutritional value but more because I can't decide if I really want to eat it. And I think that has also played a huge part in me losing my appetite during br
Open Topic: dh started working on LO's room yesterday. Originally, my cousin and my bil were the only ones that were coming over to help, but then two of my other cousins, my in-laws, my brother & nephew, AND my sister all started helping which was so nice of them and so incredibly stressful for dh & I. The whole house is a disaster area!! Today they're going try to finish... we'll see who all shows up today
I'm still having more heartburn, contractions have been a little less the last few days so I was able to have mini outings each day. It felt amazing to be out in the sunshine!
I have appts on Weds.
QOTD: I eat a lot of corn chips with guac, Wasa crackers with cream cheese and greek yogurt with fresh berries. I'm trying to be healthy as my fasting glucose was high on my 3hr so I'm loosely following a GD diet.
