Rant/Rave/Questions?
@fourPsinapod my thoughts exactly. Still haven't checked FB. I'm repressing the urge to self-medicate through retail therapy.
GTKY: Showers or baths?

I like baths like once a month or so, but showers are so much nicer/faster/less fussy. Once I win the lottery I want one of those rainforest showers:

Rant/Rave/Questions?
This is the worse day ever... No, I am no exaggerating.... My son will have a man who has admitted  to sexually assaulted  women as president... I just cannot today. Never will he be my president, never.

How big is baby? Prairie Dog

When is your next appointment? Next Thursday for Glucose test regular appointment

Symptom changes? More intense kicks, more nose bleeds, hip pain at night

Rant/Rave/Questions? I feel huge and have already caught myself waddling a couple times...

GTKY: Showers or baths? showers, I've tried to take baths to relax in the past but I just don't find them relaxing. I'd rather light a candle and read in a comfy chair than in a bath tub.

How big is baby? Cauliflower or Baseball Glove

When is your next appointment? GD Test and Regular OB appointment on 11/22

Symptom changes? Round ligament pain and heartburn has gotten worse, but more kicking from baby girl, so yay!

Rant/Rave/Questions? Really don't want to go to school today. I know all we're going to talk about is the election results and in a room of 150 entitled law students, I'm fairly certain things will get out of hand

GTKY: Showers or baths? Love me a good bath, but I never really get "clean", so usually it's a shower.

1) 26 weeks

3) I have another appointment this afternoon. I've been going every 2 weeks for my cervical checks, but today I get a growth assessment ultrasound. I'm looking forward to seeing baby & reassurance that my fluid levels and cervical length are measuring ok.

4) I've had achy pressure pretty low lately even when laying down. I'm hoping my appointment today tells me my cervix is ok, but I still want to know why I'm sore & achy.

5) Rave? Statistics vary, but at 26 weeks there's a least a 50% chance of survival if something happened today. And in another week or two statistics look great! Rant- I can't believe this country elected someone with such ugly views about so many different groups of people.

6) Showers. But I haven't been able to take a bath (or swim) this pregnancy due to potential risks with my cerclage and incompetent cervix. So good thing I prefer showers, but I really missed swimming this summer!

How big is baby? The size of a bag of microwave popcorn...Yum.

When is your next appointment? Next Friday, it still feels like forever between appointments.

Symptom changes? Just more tired and generally achy.

Rant/Rave/Questions? I'm irritable and not in the mood for anyone or anything today.  I wish I could afford to quit my job and just walk out and spend the rest of my pregnancy in bed.

GTKY: Showers or baths? I really like baths for relaxing, but I don't feel clean after a bath so I usually shower immediately after anyway.  DH and I have a waterfall shower head so our shower is really enjoyable now.

Adding in answer to question #2 after my ultrasound today.

how big is baby?
2.2lbs! (+/- the margin of error for ultrasound calculations) and measuring consistent with 28 weeks, even though I'm definitely 26 weeks (ivf).
