Symptoms/rants/raves/appointments: still heartburn, some insomnia, fatigue is making a second appearance. Next appointment is Thursday 2/25 then Monday 3/14 (that's the a/s!!!)
GTKY: strangest thing you've craved so far. I wouldn't call it a craving, but for a few weeks, I was ALL about Campbell's condensed chicken noodle soup. Not homestyle, not chunky, not progresso. It's going away now though...and quickly being replaced by strawberries and cake.
Symptoms/rants/raves/appointments: Shortness of breath, joint pain, acid reflux, getting gaggy when I've waited to long to eat, still have a terrible taste in my mouth. On the plus side, lots and lots of baby movement. We had our A/S last Wednesday and she was perfect! Extremely wiggly but perfect. We even saw her yawn!
GTKY: strangest thing you've craved so far. I basically eat like a 5 year old or college student so nothing is too weird. Today I was craving frozen burritos. I didn't get any though.
Symptoms/rants/raves/appointments: Starting to feel more movement which helps ease my anxiety! More restless while sleeping, and heartburn. Still throwing up about 2 times a week but not even near as bad as first trimester. Appointment on 3/4 can't wait to see our little baby for the anatomy scan!
GTKY: strangest thing you've craved so far. I wouldn't say it's anything too strange but lately it's been fruit and ice cream.
How many weeks/what fruit? 17 weeks. I am absolutely refusing to be my fruit (onion) because I am allergic to them. Plus what kind of onion is 5.5 inches big? Does America have monster onions or something?
Symptoms/rants/raves/appointments: I am seriously worried I am dying. I can't stop vomiting, everything hurts and my head feels like it is going to explode. DH is really worried and wants me to go get something to stop me vomiting but I don't reckon they will do anything. I'm more worried about dehydrating and my blood pressure which seems to be really low. I don't know, I just am struggling.
GTKY: strangest thing you've craved so far. my thing atm is ice blocks. Before I got sick it was cheese- I was desperate for cheese, which is odd for me seeing as I usually don't like cheese.
Symptoms/rants/raves/appointments: My energy is back! Have gone to the gym 3 times this week. My nausea is improving too, and I've been able to cut my Diclectin dose down a bit. I'll also be halfway done on Wednesday (my repeat c-section will be done at 39 weeks according to my doctor - she'll be referring me to an obgyn soon, who'll be performing my surgery, and I plan to ask if they ever let RSC moms go a bit later than 39 weeks. I'd like to get a bit closer to 40 weeks if possible). And finally, my ultrasound is on Friday! Can't wait.
GTKY: strangest thing you've craved so far: I don't really get weird cravings, just strong cravings for normal food. My biggest one lately has been Mini Wheats cereal.
Weeks-20/banana (please read that in a minion voice because I can no longer say banana without going BAHNAHNAH!!!
Symptoms etc - doing ok except I've kind of stopped sleeping. Between my sciatica and stress I just can't sleep. Tylenol pm isn't helping. I'm going to give it a couple more days and if it continues/gets worse I'll call my ob to see if she can give me something to help me sleep. Also keep having issues with my depression meds upsetting my stomach. Got a new one a couple days ago so hopefully this one doesn't make me sit in the bathroom for 15 minutes every hour or so. Tummy is still a little wonky, but not as bad as on the other med.
GTKY- haven't had any weird cravings really. The most consistent one has been ice cream sundaes. Normally I'll get a really bad craving for something specific and once I get it I'm good. Seems like I can always go for a sundae though.
Symptoms/rants/raves/appointments: The usual for symptoms, nausea isn't getting much better and now the hip pains have started too. Hoping to feel movement soon. It started right around 20 weeks with DD. A/s on 3/4 GTKY: strangest thing you've craved so far. No major cravings. Some home cooked meals from mom and dad sound good and cereal is still my first thing in the morning staple.
How many weeks/what fruit? 18. Sweet Potato Symptoms/rants/raves/appointments: Anatomy can next week (but we are Team Green...I am just excited to see baby). Fell pretty hard today. I was jogging back to our truck on the beach while my 80 pound dog was with me. He happened to jerk really hard, right while I was in the air, and I landed....tried to get my feet to catch up to my body, took two giant steps.....before my feet flew out from under me and I landed on hard packed sand. If I was someone else watching it, I would have died laughing. It literally was like a video you would see on Youtube fails, or America's Funniest Home Videos. Luckily, mid-air, I was able to turn my body enough that I went from face first, to my side before I hit the sand....so my belly didn't hit. Then I rolled over on my back and just kind of laid there for a moment. The retractable leash handle was ripped out of my hand, and shockingly, my dog happened to stop and wasn't still running (he is a rescue and still doesn't come when called, so he is leashed at all times). My 4 year old DD came running right over and was really worried if I (and the baby) were okay. My husband was just like "WTF is happening to you?!" Since I had already slipped and fallen off the front porch the day before (luckily it is only 2 ft off the ground), and right before I was messing around on the beach, I threw up the first panel of our truck bed cover (which is really heavy and kind of folds like an accordion), and the beach wind caught it, and slammed it back down....when my fingers where on the top of the tailgate....so they were totally latched in there and I couldn't get them out. I am a hot mess. GTKY: strangest thing you've craved so far. Nothing crazy, just crave and want whatever item it is, for every meal for a few days.....then get tired of whatever it was, and move onto the next one.
