Friday Ticker Change!

FlemDance

So yeah, I realized last week that I have never seen a Friday ticker change thread on here! I figured I would start one.

I hope that I do this right! I'm nervous. Tell me if I do this wrong. Oh god. I'm scared.

Week/produce item: Week 28 - Eggplant

Symptoms: Sciatic nerve pain is still bothersome, but since I went to the chiro last week it feels much more manageable. I'm going again this afternoon so I'm hoping that I can keep it somewhat under control.

Appointments/Updates: I have an appointment with maternal/fetal this coming Monday. Haven't had any problems with baby *knock on wood*, but I've been seeing them since I have Crohn's disease and my OB just wants to be sure all of our bases are covered. If the US goes well, like the others have, I won't need to see them again and will just continue at my OB's office.

Rants/Raves:

Rave: DH has be amazing about getting things set up in the nursery. It's not decorated yet, but we have all of the large furniture pieces, which is super helpful.

Rant: While DH has been great about setting things up, he is not wanting to put up shelving in there. His reasoning is that we already have bookcases from when the room was an office, so we don't need shelves. I disagree because the room isn't that big and the bookshelves take up a huge chunk of square footage. I'm of the "less is more" aesthetic, while he would rather line the perimeter of the room with bookshelves/chests/dressers so everything has it's place.


GTKY: I've been told that I look like several celebrities, almost all of whom have naturally curly hair like me - Shakira, Rebecca Gayheart, and Annalynne McCord when I was blonde. Now I hear that I look like Lorde because my hair is dark. I've also randomly heard Kaley Cuoco several times but I'm not too sure on that.

Week/produce item? 29 weeks, acorn squash

Symptoms? Not really sure this counts, but I have arthritis in the hips, and now they are starting to hurt.

Appointments/Updates? Baby is still measuring long. The u/s sound says he's 2 weeks ahead, the fundal measurement thing says 1 one week ahead.

Rants/Raves? Someone told me to shop at Carter's for non cliche boy clothing, and now I want all of the clothes!

GTKY: Who is your celebrity doppelganger? My Mom says Natalie Wood, but everyone else says Christina Ricci minus the forehead

Appointments/Updates? - Had a 29 week appt and doc doesn't want to see me again until 33.

Week/produce item? 31 weeks, pineapple

Symptoms? Exhausted still, having lots of back pain and RLP.

Appointments/Updates? Last appointment was Feb. 28th, everything looked great. Next one will be next Friday. Crazy that its down to the 2 week appointments!

Rants/Raves? Raves: Have my 3D ultrasound tomorrow! I am so excited, even though I don't anticipate great pictures because I am carrying so low and I have an anterior placenta. At my 3D ultrasound with DD, they could already tell she had chubby cheeks (and man she still does!) so I hope we can see if we are having another cheeky baby!

Rants: DD has been really sick all week. She has had a really high fever (over 105 at times) and the doctor doesn't know why. She has been absolutely miserable, and I feel so bad for her. I feel like a walking zombie. I was up with her most of the night last night, it's been so hard to have her be so sick and clingy at 31 weeks pregnant!

GTKY: Who is your celebrity doppelganger? When I was young, everyone told my mom I looked like Drew Barrymore (kid version). Now some people have told me I look like Jodie Foster.

Week/produce: 29 weeks/acorn squash

Appointments: went to the dr this week. I am now going every two weeks (crazy!!!). She said the baby's heart beat was very strong for a boy (whatever that means lol)

Raves: I am loving how my nursery is coming along and I am loving my Thursday night yoga class!

Rants: by the end of the day my feet hurt and I am so uncomfortable under my ribs :-\

GTKY: I am beyond boring and I don't think I have one.

GTKY: Who is your celebrity doppelganger? I really don't think I have one.
