Tuesday Ticker Change

What week are you?

What fruit/object?

Anything baby related this week?

Rant/rave/questions:

GTKY: Are you watching the Super Bowl in 2 weeks ? Who are you picking to win ?

Re: Tuesday Ticker Change

  • What week are you? 17 weeks !

    What fruit/object? Pomegranate or an Onion

    Anything baby related this week? I caved and bought a Doppler, so pending the snow and delivery times I may play with that a little bit.

    Rant/rave/questions: I am fighting off a cold but overall feeling really good. I think I've felt the baby twice now- but it's so inconsistent I'm still not sure. Anatomy scan is in 2 weeks today! No real questions right now.

    Super bowl pick: Denver because they beat New England, but I'll be at work and missing all of the fun parties.

    What week are you? 14 weeks (helloooo, second trimester!)

    What fruit/object? Lemon, troll doll

    Anything baby related this week? Just got the Progenity results this morning and found out we're having a boy! So now I am scheming fun ways to reveal it to DH. Other than that, just waiting for my 16-week appointment on 2/18.

    Rant/rave/questions: Rant is mainly all the aches and pains. I know it's all part of things stretching, but dang, it's uncomfortable! Also: allllll the hormones. I've been so weepy and emotional for the last week, crying at everything! I wasn't like that earlier on.  

    Rave is that I've had snow days the past two days and it's been SO nice to just relax a little.

    Questions: I've just been stressing a little these days trying to figure out where my uterus is and why I can't feel it (I'm assuming it's because I've got extra weight on my belly). I'm planning on asking my OB in two weeks, but still. It's kinda freaking me out.


    GTKY: Are you watching the Super Bowl in 2 weeks ? Who are you picking to win ? Definitely watching the Super Bowl! I love Super Bowl parties...and the food! Mmm! Will be rooting for Denver.

    Edit: forgot some words. 
  • @elldel if it helps- 20 weeks the top of your uterus is belly button height.. So before that it will always be lower, the only way I can explain knowing where it is is by how much harder that part is than how your regular abdomen feels? That and it feels heavy when I turn now. Don't freak out! :smile:
  • Thanks, @HMcDade1! That does help. I know it's still pretty low and small, so I figured that + the extra weight was making it difficult. I'll try and be patient! :smile:
  • @benten24 thanks ! I was looking for one of those charts but couldn't find a decent one
  • What week are you? 16! Time is flying by guys!

    What fruit/object? Avocado

    Anything baby related this week? Today is another doc appt! No ultrasound though but hopefully I can talk to them about my heartburn

    Rant/rave/questions: Heart burn came back with a vengeance! 

    GTKY: Are you watching the Super Bowl in 2 weeks ? Who are you picking to win ?  I have no horse in the race =) but I am still watching it for the commercials!

    Not really, don't have appointments again until mid-Feb.

    Rant/rave/questions: 
    @soberkfell I feel the same way. I got a surge of energy for maybe a week, then I started to feel exhausted again. If I walk or do a chore for a while, I feel it in my hips and lower back. The discomfort is starting a lot earlier this time than last pregnancy.

    We'll probably have a party at our house because we host all the things. That said, I care not much about football. I can't wait for appetizers and terrible food!

    July 2016 - July Siggy: Weird Hot Dog Situations
  • What week are you: 17weeks

    What fruit/object: onion, pear

    Anything baby related: not until mid February for anatomy scan

    Rants/raves/questions: holy hell stretch marks. I weigh less now than when I got pregnant, and I've gotten tons of new ones. They are in the weirdest places too that didn't get them the first go round. Yay pregnancy. Also, MS still lingering, but not too bad. On bedrest, so I think I just notice it more since I'm not moving around a lot!

    GTKY: not sure if we will actually watch it, but I want Denver. It would be nice for Manning to win before he retires. Also, I was mad when the Texans fired Gary Kubiak and Wade Phillips, so I think it would be the ultimate "up yours" if they won.
  • Week: 16 weeks

    Fruit/Object: avocado, pickle

    Baby Related: Just got my quad screening bloodwork drawn and need to schedule my anatomy scan soon. Can't wait to find out what we're having! We're going to find out first, tell my husband's parents, and then have a small reveal party with some friends :)

    Rants/Raves/Questions: I found the cutest Burt's Bees Baby stuff at Marshall's today! Organic, cute and pretty cheap!


    GTKY: Probably not watching the Super Bowl since our team isn't in it, but we'll see!
  • I haven't participated in a ticker change yet, but I'm a Tuesday

    What week are you? 17 weeks! (I also feel that this has flown by, @chanfa)

    What fruit/object? Crème Brulée

    Anything baby related this week? Anatomy scan next Monday
    Rant/rave/questions: Movement is still very sporadic, but I love the reassurance

    GTKY: Are you watching the Super Bowl in 2 weeks ? Who are you picking to win ? YES! I'm from Charlotte so Panthers all the way! I'm so proud of this team!

  • What week are you? 16 weeks today :)

    What fruit/object? Avocado (the bump), dill pickle (Ovia)

    Anything baby related this week? I think I have felt a few flutters but I'm not really sure... I've also gotten a lot of comments recently that my bump is starting to show.

    Rant/rave/questions: We are all booked on our babymoon to London and are in full force planning mode. The next five weeks will fly by!

    GTKY: Are you watching the Super Bowl in 2 weeks ? Who are you picking to win ? I will probably watch it but I don't have strong feelings about either team. I'd like to see Carolina win because they've looked so strong this season (plus as a Pats fan I can't root for Denver)!

  • @elldel - you can feel it more when your bladder is full because it pushes the uterus up and out. Lay on your back on a firm surface and feel the part of your belly below your belly button. I could feel mine starting around 3 weeks ago.
