Re: Friday Ticker Change 4/22
15 weeks.
How big is baby?
An eclair, yum!
How are you feeling?
For the most part good... there are still random instances of nausea or just feeling "ick" here and there.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
The headaches seem to have abated.... but my boobs have become sorer, and also, my nosebleeds are becoming my morning thing now. wtf?
GTKY: If a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for?
1.) No more terrorism in this world. All forms of it.
2.) I'd wish for $5M so I can: have enough money to quit my job and start a non-profit; buy a 5BR house on the beach; buy a 2nd vacation house up in the mountains somewhere; give my sister/mom/dad $100k each to do whatever they please with it.
3.) Never have to work out and eat all the pizza and still stay slim and toned.
What week are you? 16 weeks!
How big is baby? Avocado. I told DH and he sent me this video:

How are you feeling? Pretty good. I'll get sickish or a headache every now and then but I've had a pretty good week.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I am getting so anxious for our A/S. We are so excited to find out what sex our LO is going to be. It's getting harder to wait. 2 more weeks.
GTKY: If a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for? Hmmm.
1. It feels so materialistic to say, but probably like $10 million so that we could pay off everything for our immediate family, build our dream house, pay off our loans, buy new reliable vehicles, and have money to send our kids to college without them having to worry about loans.
2. For my kids to have a better life and future than I have.
3. To be able to think of what I wanted to eat and it cook itself.

How big is baby? An orange, an eclair, a yellow canary, big enough to feel tiny thumps more frequently. Squeeeee!
How are you feeling? Headaches headaches and more headaches
Rants/Raves/Questions? I finally got my NIPT results yesterday. Everything is normal and baby is a GIRL!! Still in shock. I was so sure it was another boy that I've been telling people all I need is another crib and a car seat. Ha!
GTKY: if a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for? Oh lord. My kids to have long, happy and healthy lives. Because it's on my nerves today, end social media hysteria. I'm so over things that aren't an issue becoming a huge issue because somebody saw it on fb so it must be true and now we all need to share it and mass hysteria begins. Ugh... And probably three more wishes for when my head isn't pounding and I can think.
Edited because use words are hard
How big is baby? A hot jalapeño! Yummy
How are you feeling? Pretty sick of feeling sick. I was doing great today, until I bought lunch. Now my lunch tastes horrible and I feel sick.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I don't know if I felt gas bubbles or movement for the first time. I'm going with movement
GTKY: If a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for?
1. A magical bank account that always auto fills to whatever amount I want to spend.
2. Amazing hair that I could curl and style.
3. Mad, Tony Stark-level technology skills and knowledge so I could build sweet stuff.
How big is baby?: a size of a lemon
How are you feeling? Agree with @SuperNerd42. Been waiting for this nausea to ease up, but no such luck yet... Lots of gagging and dry heaving going on...
Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm hoping to feel better soon...These food aversions are making me sad and I'm feeling pretty worn down.
GTKY: 1. Money. It's just what makes the world go round, unfortunately.
2. For a happy, healthy, and full life for my family. After I had DD, I was irrationally scared that I was going to die and leave her. So I always pray that we will get to spend a long life together.
3. For more time. My husband works so much and there just never seems to be enough time in the day for anything. I just would love for us to have more time together.
What week are you? 16 weeks! This pregnancy is finally starting to speed up a little.
How big is baby? The size of an avocado! Starting to feel little flutters here and there! Love it.
How are you feeling? Pretty good for the most part. Still getting some headaches during the week, and generally feeling exhausted most days, but it's improving!
Rants/Raves/Questions? I have an appointment Monday and we will be scheduling our anatomy scan! I am so excited and anxious to find out what this one is, and to make sure everything is growing as it should be! I have been much more anxious to find out what we are having this time, I cannot wait!
GTKY: If a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for? Oh my. I wouldn't even know when to start. Off the top of my head I guess this is what comes to mind
1. A long healthy happy life for my family. Ever since I was a kid, I have had this irrational fear that somebody I love will die. I am terrified of the thought of my kids not having me around growing up.
2. Enough money for us to live comfortably and provide for our kids as they grow up and go to college. Enough for my husband to be home more, and me to be able to stay and be more comfortable as a stay at home mom.
3. Another vain selfish request. A life long personal trainer and chef to keep me healthy and in shape!
how big is baby? lime!
how are you feeling? grumpy, tired, headache, sore from YouTube exercise video I did yesterday. It was ridiculous easy. I can't even understand how quickly I've gotten out of shape since my bfp.
rants/raves/questions: dh is driving me crazy. The kids are driving me crazy. I really need to get away and decompress.
Gtky: if a genie granted you 3 wishes what would you wish for?
1. The end of all child abuse (in all its forms).
2. Mental illness to be nonexistent.
3. Sustenance for everyone on the planet for eternity.
It would be tempting to be selfish and think of myself. If genies were a real thing I would want to help as many as I could with my wishes.

how big is baby? Peach! Mouse! Millefeuille pastry!
how are you feeling? Pretty good, just a touch more tired and weepy than normal.
rants/raves/questions: Do any of you get cramps for a long time after you poop? How bad an idea was it to eat all that blue cheese and those small amounts of carpaccio and ceviche at the fancy restaurant?
Gtky: if a genie granted you 3 wishes what would you wish for?
I'd have to go with 2 selfish things and 1 less selfish thing.
1. Enough money to get us and my family members out of debt
2. The ability to lead a very healthy lifestyle without having to think about it or use willpower. (If I just wished to be thin, I assume the genie would give me a tapeworm or a stomach disease or something.)
3. Uh, let's say an end to cancer.
E born 6/2014
How big is baby? A jalapeno or a peach.
How are you feeling? Pretty good! Mostly glad that the cold from hell is FINALLY almost gone (after 3+ weeks!) Energy level is still not tremendous but is improving. I thought my appetite was back and was eating pretty well the beginning of this week, but I couldn't think of anything good to eat for dinner last night and I'm currently sitting here feeling absolutely stuffed after eating a totally reasonably sized wrap 3 1/2 hours ago, so maybe not.
Rants/Raves/Questions? WTF appetite????? Please come back. I was enjoying you so much.
GTKY: If a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for?
I'll be selfish:
(1) Enough money that my family and I could be comfortable.
(2) A long and healthy life for my family and I.
(3) The ability to eat whatever I want and not gain weight.

How big is baby? Eclair
How are you feeling? I have been almost symptom free this pregnancy besides fatigue. Until this week. I have constant, uncomfortable pains, pressure and fullness in my entire lower abdomen. It's nothing major but it never goes away and it's really getting to me.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Kind of ticked at my internal organs for resisting moving aside to make room for baby!
GTKY: If a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for?
1. Money to pay off my student debt and buy a house, plus some to save so DH can be home more.
2. An end to religion and a general increase in human logic.
3. An end to hate and discrimination in all their forms. This combined with the point above means humanity could work together to save this planet. That's the world I want my children to grow up in.
DS#2 due 25 April 2019
How big is baby? As big as a can of coke
How are you feeling? Tired, headache y, and in need of a doughnut.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Garage sale season started here today. I scored some super-cute 3-6m sweaters and a huge bag full of medela bottles for $4 total!
GTKY: If a genie granted you three wishes, what would you wish for? 1. Diabetes to not exist 2. a happy life 3. an endless supply of good cheese.
