Can of SPAM or an avocado.
Appointment updates?
Tuesday is my next appointment.
Any new symptoms or changes?  
I think my strong smelling nose came back for a few days. 
Rants/Raves/Questions? 
I'm very nervous about starting a new full time job on Thursday. It, more than stress about baby, is giving me insomnia. 
GTKY: New Years resolutions?
Starting this new job, I am going to work on attempting to set boundaries on staying late to give myself the chance not to burn out. I tend to go into work full steam ahead. I'll like to ease into it if possible to lay the groundwork for a work-life balance where boundaries are clear. Here's hoping! I know it will be a lot of practice to make this work over time, especially when I am more sleep deprived than now.

My little baby girl is 18 weeks today. 

Shes the size of an artichoke. 

I have an appointment on the 4th,18th, and 19th.  I have 2 scans this month and my normal office visit appointment. 

Well I've been dealing with leg cramps/muscle soreness and nose bleeds.  Sleeping is starting to get a bit uncomfortable as well.   

No no real questions or raves.  

I don't have any resolutions because quite frankly even if I make them I don't keep them.   My goal for this year besides a healthy baby is to finish my masters degree.  I have 4 of 12 classes done.  I have another one starting tomorrow.  I hope everyone's new year starts off well and continues that way!

I have my 16 week appointment on the 12.
Any new symptoms or changes?  
I'm starting to get headaches. Stopped taking unisom/B6 and have felt pretty normal!
Rants/Raves/Questions? 
I'm SO annoyed with everyone asking how I'm feeling like every damn day. Mostly MIL and my grandma. People who ask once in awhile is fine but they ask every time I talk to them. 
GTKY: New Years Resolutions?
just have a healthy rest of my pregnancy and a healthy baby! Maybe eat slightly healthier and get to the gym a little more.

@alm52386 how are you feeling is asked a billion times a week. People need a new question lol. Now people ask what names I picked out. If they aren't a close friend then I don't want to tell them!

I don't really believe in New Years (except for the whole scientific "we have traveled around the sun once" thing). Didn't celebrate and didn't make a resolution.

Rants/Raves/Questions? People keep touching my belly and I know it will just get worse but I cannot stand it

GTKY: New Years Resolutions? Just trying to eat healthier this year

alm52386

I forgot to put that I have heartburn, gas, indigestion and I'm pretty sure acid reflux. Yay.

@mtvkv5 I've had a few people touch my belly but it's been people that I'm close with and haven't minded much. If a stranger tries to touch it later on I'm gonna hate it!

Appointment went very quickly this time. Doppler worked right away, and talked metro strategies, swim class and cramping while peeing. We were in and out in 15 minutes I think.

I was recommended compression socks and a pregnancy belt for the walk to and from buses and trains. I had forgotten that a pregnancy belt was a thing.

@Alm52286 I just tell people I'm feeling stretched. They tend to laugh and move on. 

alm52386

@lizerspitz or maybe I could simply say "I feel pregnant"
