Re: Friday Ticker Change 9/9
Going to update this now as I have ZERO MOTIVATION at work. I'm currently laying on a beanbag hoping nothing happens for the next two hours and 15 minutes until 530...
How far along are you? What's new with your little babe?
22 Weeks. Baby is still super active which is helping me get by my wait until the specialist scan next week. I feel like she's gone through a bit of a growth spurt as everything feels a bit more stretched.
What are you doing this week to prepare for the baby's arrival?
DH and I had a personal shopping appointment last week where they told us everything we need. It was super useful! Though we're still split between the Bugaboo Bee and the Uppababy Cruz for a stroller. I've also finalized our registry. I also signed up for a pregnancy yoga class, which is supposed to be focused on birth techniques as well as poses for pregnancy.
Rants / Raves / Symptoms / Questions:
Symptoms: MY BACK IS KILLING MEEEEEE!!!!!! I've booked a massage tomorrow and I really hope it helps. Also RLP is becoming a real thing for me. Particularly in the morning when I walk to my train. Not sure if it's because I'm a bit dehydrated in the morning?
When's your next appointment?
Next Thursday. Trying not to think about it because it makes me so nervous. Everyone please have good thoughts/ prayers that the amniotic band doesn't exist or went away!!
Who was your celebrity crush when you were a teenager?
Viggo Mortensen. I was a BIG Lord of the Rings fan ahahah. Awkward as he's literally my dad's age. Note: I still think he's a babe. Though sadly my husband looks nothing like him.
How far along are you? What's new with your little babe? 23 weeks! He's the size of a grapefruit! (Which now makes me crave grapefruit..)
What are you doing this week to prepare for the baby's arrival? Other than trying to stop buying baby clothes online, nothing really. Haha.
Rants / Raves / Symptoms / Questions: Still feeling ragey. I had my husband go to Wendy's for lunch on Sunday and asked him to bring me home a Frosty. He pretended that he forgot it, and I almost cried. Don't mess with a pregnant lady, hubs!
I've also been experiencing back pain. Ugh.
When's your next appointment? Tuesday!
Who was your celebrity crush when you were a teenager? Joel Madden from Good Charlotte, Billy Corgan from the Smashing Pumpkins, and John Cusack. How eclectic, I know.
Baby Boy #1 born 1/9/17
Baby Boy #2 EDD 11/4/18
What are you doing this week to prepare for the baby's arrival? Nothing really.
Rants / Raves / Symptoms / Questions: My back has been hurting and I'm not sure stretching is helping. At least my heartburn has been better this week though.
When's your next appointment? MFM 9/14 and OB 9/29.
Who was your celebrity crush when you were a teenager? Orlando Bloom and George Clooney (who is waaaaay too old for me). Such a weird combo.
Also, good vibes for you @hayhay87!
How far along are you? What's new with your little babe? 22 weeks, he's the size of a coconut and I think I felt him do a full flip earlier this week. It was the weirdest sensation. Needless to say he is incredibly active and kicked up a storm at the Broncos game last night every time CJ Anderson ran. Either this guy's going to be a running back or he already pumps blue and orange through his veins
What are you doing this week to prepare for the baby's arrival? DH is picking up our new fancy crib that we're getting for free from my MIL (gosh I love it when you complain about a small defect on a piece of furniture and the manufacturer sends you a second one for free...). I'm anxiously awaiting some fabric purchases I made online so I can start making crib sheets!
Rants / Raves / Symptoms / Questions: My back hasn't been too bad but my HIPS are killing me. I've also been getting sharp pains in my right hip when I'm in certain weird positions like squatting to pee (sorry, TMI I know). I caved and bought a BLANQI support tank this week in hopes that it will help. It arrives tomorrow and cannot get here soon enough.
When's your next appointment? September 21
Who was your celebrity crush when you were a teenager? Is it bad if my answer is Cary Elwes? I just LOVED him in Robin Hood Men in Tights and The Princess Bride!
How far along are you? What's new with your little babe?
21 weeks! Accord to the app little guy went from 6.5 inches to 10.5 in one week???
WHAT HAPPENED! O_O
What are you doing this week to prepare for the baby's arrival?
Finally making our registry! And I have no idea where to even begin. Haha
Rants / Raves / Symptoms / Questions:
Nothing horrible. Headaches here and there, leg cramps if I don't drink enough water. And I swear if I eat anything my stomach feels huuuuuuuge.
When's your next appointment?
9/17!
Who was your celebrity crush when you were a teenager?
Jesse McCartney.... I still listen to his music here and there, but he's not nearly as cute anymore.
Don't judge.
19 weeks!! She's the size of a game boy
What are you doing this week to prepare for the baby's arrival?
Handy man coming tomorrow to finish painting the nursery
Rants / Raves / Symptoms / Questions:
No much. Some extra round ligament pain, that's always fun
When's your next appointment?
Monday!
Who was your celebrity crush when you were a teenager?
Nick Lachey!
20 weeks today!! This is going by SO fast.
What are you doing this week to prepare for the baby's arrival?
Baby shower is tomorrow! I know it's crazy early but I live so far from friends and family, it's the only time I will see them before baby is born.
Rants / Raves / Symptoms / Questions:
Anterior placenta is really delaying feeling baby kick. I can't wait for the kicks to begin!
When's your next appointment?
Tuesday for a repeat AS, then hopefully the next week to meet my OB for the 1st time.
Who was your celebrity crush when you were a teenager? OMG Brad Renfro! I would modge-podge his face on everything including my entire bedroom... Too bad he overdosed on heroin in like 1999!
