Re: Wednesday Ticker Change
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Pineapple
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Pelvic pain has become my everyday complaint. Benadryl has become my new BFF because it lets me sleep, I didn't even wake up to pee last night!
Whats next? I have my appointment today! I should get my c section date and I'll get to see what the doctor has to say about my ultrasound I had 2 weeks ago. Today is also my first NST.
GTKY: what have you craved most this pregnancy thus far? Taco Bell. I could probably eat it everyday.
37
What size(fruit or other) is baby?
Swiss chard, striped skunk
Rant/Rave/Symptoms:
I realized last night that LO could come at any time, and got really excited. Then I realized it could also still be another 4+ weeks and nearly cried. Lots of low back pain and pelvic pressure right now.
Whats next?
Follow up with my specialist (GD) on Friday morning, plus my first cervical check with the OB on Friday afternoon. Fingers crossed something is happening!
GTKY: what have you craved most this pregnancy thus far?
I haven't had any really strong cravings, which is disappointing! Lately though, I've been wanting red meat a lot - steaks, burgers, tacos, roast beef sandwich... The LO must be taking all my iron.
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Romaine lettuce
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Just having a lot of rib pain. Baby is still really high up and crowding my lungs.
Whats next? I had an appointment yesterday and had my first cervical check along with the strep b swab. Neither were too terrible. Nothing is going on with my cervix at all.
GTKY: what have you craved most this pregnancy thus far? Probably chocolate. I could just eat snickers bars all day long.
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Swiss chard or a honeydew melon
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Just exhausted again like I was in first tri... and now getting me menstral-like cramps.
Whats next? A baby!
GTKY: what have you craved most this pregnancy thus far? Cereal (I've been eating 2 bowls a night!) and fresh fruit (currently on cantaloupe, cherries and peaches).
What size(fruit or other) is baby? pineapple
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: At my appointment this morning, my belly is suddenly measuring 3 weeks ahead (been right on track til today) and I have gained 4 lbs. in the last two weeks. My doc is sending me for a growth US to check baby's measurements and fluid levels. If he's measuring big, I may be induced at 39 weeks. My son was a 9-pounder so I'm not too surprised.
What's next? US and next OB appointment are both next week Wed.
GTKY: what have you craved most this pregnancy thus far? Red wine! Which I can't have ...
Size? Lettuce
Rant, rave, symptoms? No sleep! Insomnia has been kicking my butt for a couple weeks now. And reflux was terrible last night.hoping that's not going to be baby's new torture method. Also lots of contractions, actually thought I was in labor last night. But I'm glad I went with my instinct and stayed home. Not quite time yet.
What's next? Just had my 37 week appt this morning. I'm now dilated to 3, 70% effaced and 0 station. He could just fall out any minute now! I'm excited but nervous. I'm afraid labor will go so fast I won't have time for the epidural I desperately want. I've given birth without one and with one, and it was so worth getting one.
Gtky: I've craved coke like crazy!
How many weeks? 34 weeks
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Baby is the size of a Quokka (which I am adding a pic of because I had never heard of it)
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Same as everyone else really. Very uncomfortable, no good sleep, cramping, contractions on and off.
Whats next? 36 week appointment on the 26th then I go to every week appointments!
GTKY: what have you craved most this pregnancy thus far? All the fruits! Currently it is watermelon, cherries, blueberries, strawberries, and bananas. Also, fried chicken (which I never liked before).
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Papaya
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: The other night I was walking into work and I was getting the side cramps as if I was running. It hurt to even walk slow. Once I was done in the lab I sat down at my desk and chugged water thinking I was dehydrated. Thankfully the pain went away.
Whats next? Appt on Friday. Did maternity pics Tuesday evening.
GTKY: what have you craved most this pregnancy thus far? Pineapples, lemon stuff/lemonade, cereal, but probably for the milk. I woke up early last weekend and was a little hungry so I went a drank some milk. And filled up my cup 2 more times!
