Upcoming appointments this week? I just got home from my NT scan, all went well.
Any new symptoms or changes? I think maybe nausea has settled a bit. Hopefully. According to the doctor's scale I've lost five pounds since my last visit, so I'm hoping my appetite comes back. Also having lots of RLP, the doctor said it's typical to have more in 2nd+ pregnancies- boo.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Everyone keeps asking me if I know if it's a boy or a girl yet- and these are people who should know you don't find out until much later, so I'm getting annoyed.
GTKY: What is a non-baby related thing you want to accomplish or work on this year? Our house is being built right now, so moving in, decorating, ect.

GTKY: What is a non-baby related thing you want to accomplish or work on this year? Hope to pay off ALL our debt except the house this year. Hoping to eventually buy a bigger home and I refuse to do so with any debt hanging over us.
@mrs.emmalouise (we can't tag you bc of the period in your username) - I feel ya on the people asking if it's a boy/girl! I told a close friend really early and she was asking that at my 11 week appointment! Like, no girl! You should know better! I've had a few people ask since we officially announced last week.

I know, the tag thing is annoying. But way back when I used to bump more there was no tagging. It's alright though, I'm sure I would never notice a notification anyways.
Anyways, my MIL is the worst, because she said even if the doctor hasn't told me yet, I should "know". Well. I "know" she only wants a boy, so I said "I guess if I have to choose, it's a girl." So then she says "I guess we will wait for the doctor to tell us." Mmmhmmm.
