How far along are you? 19 weeks!! 

How big is baby?  Zucchini, mango

Appointment updates?  I had my first one in 6 weeks on Tuesday!  Found the heartbeat right away, it was 150.  Scheduled my a/s for next Thursday yay!!

Any new symptoms or changes?  Well I finally started gaining weight, and my body is certainly not wasting any time.  Also I've finally felt definite kicks right in my lower abdomen the past two days- ahhh!

Rants/Raves/Questions?  At my appointment I had pretty low blood pressure, which explains the ridiculous dizziness and blurred vision I've been having.  I guess this is better than dealing with the constant nausea.

GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?!  If it's cold- whole milk decaf latte with caramel.  If it's hot (which, I live in Texas so this is my order 89% of the time) iced soy green tea latte.  Or if I'm feeling saucy an iced caramel macchiato.  Soooooo good!

Happy new week ladies!!

A pommegranate 

Appointment updates?

I have one coming up next week. Just a check up. 

Any new symptoms or changes?  

My boobs are still hurting. Can that happen the whole time? I had no boob pain/changes with my first pregnancy and this one is a whole different story. I'm also feeling movement several times a day now.

Rants/Raves/Questions? 

We found out yesterday we are having a boy! I was so happy to see a healthy
baby in there. 

GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?!

Grande skinny vanilla latte.

How big is baby? 
Sweet potato or sling shot 

Appointment updates?
I have my anatomy scan and monthly next week, but we already know we're Team Pink.

Any new symptoms or changes?  
Nope. Impatiently waiting on movement.

Rants/Raves/Questions? 
Mobile is being annoying with bold text right now.

I love the Caramel Praline lattes! It's probably a good thing they are seasonal. Usually, I just get iced coffee.

How big is baby? pomegranate
Appointment updates? not for 2 weeks, regular and anatomy scan
Any new symptoms or changes?  I felt like I was having braxton hicks this week. Nonpainful tightening feeling. I didnt have this until way later last time. I drank a cold glass of water and it went away.
Rants/Raves/Questions? has anyone had braxton hicks this early? Is that normal? Dr. Google didnt seem worried. I was going to ask my midwife if it got more frequent.
GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?! not a coffee fan but like their shaken iced tea lemonade

@LMMama OMG, my boobs have hurt this entire pregnancy.  I don't remember anything like it with my first two.  I have to wear a bra 24/7 or I'm miserable!!

@swanbrooner I count down to the praline lattes every year, they're so damn good.

Appointment updates?
Anatomy scan next Thursday!

Any new symptoms or changes?  
Appetite is returning which I'm grateful for. Otherwise lots of back pain, especially after waking up. 

Rants/Raves/Questions? 
Also can't wait for movement and wish my pregnancy apps would stop talking about it because it only makes me more impatient. 

GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?!
The sausage egg and cheese sandwich on an English muffin. It's really damn good and also pretty filling. I get this more than anything else. Drink wise a vanilla latte with soy. 

swanbrooner

@meilay heyyyy, due date buddy.

jc_twomamas

@LMMamamy boobs/nipples hurt soooo much this pregnancy!

Appointment updates? a/s 1/16

Any new symptoms or changes?  Consistent movement/kicks/punches felt throughout the day now! He's super busy from 9-10pm every night. Headaches still...

Rants/Raves/Questions? If anyone loves to read, run and get yourself "Love Warrior" by Glennon Doyal Melton. Finished it in abouuuuut 7 hours flat (between two nights). 

GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?!

eeeekkkk....I don't like Starbucks coffee!

How far along are you? 16 weeks (+1 day, since I'm late)

How big is baby? Avocado, which seems big to me

Appointment updates? Early anatomy scan on Monday - did get to see him bouncing around at my regular ob appointment on Wednesday, so that was nice

Any new symptoms or changes? Continuing to feel pretty good, and have the green light to start weaning off my diclegis

Rants/Raves/Questions? Finally gave in and put on some maternity pants yesterday for work. So much better! I also gave up on "hiding" my bump even though I haven't told many folks. If they think I ate too many cookies, fine by me!

GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?! Grande skinny vanilla latte (when not pregnant - these days it's less exciting!)

@c1tym0m22, I'm always late to the party too!

How big is baby? 
Croissant
Appointment updates?
Nothing for 2+ more weeks...but, still riding on the high that things looked good with baby boy on the early anatomy last week!
Any new symptoms or changes?  
Feeling some tightening and the occasional kick when I'm finally able to sit down
Rants/Raves/Questions? 
Annoyed by work lately, in general. I'm supposed to be working 2 nights/2 weekend shifts per month (I'm a Peds ER doc); but lately, due to short-staffing, I'm being scheduled for 4 overnights (often weekends) and 2-3 additional weekends! It's killing my already limited family time. But, I'm more annoyed because I'm supposed to be studying intensely for a big exam in early April, but the extra shifting of my circadian rhythm is messing with my brain! Who knows what they're going to do this summer when I'm out for 3 months? Not my problem, thankfully! Grrrr...anyways, nothing that I can really do about it, but it's nice to be able to vent about it a little
GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?!

I usually stick to Caramel Macchiatos...hot or iced

How big is baby? Avocado or action figure

Appointment updates?Had one on Thur.  All was good, ob thought baby was up higher but I told her baby is still hanging out just above my hairline.  

Any new symptoms or changes?  Finally getting my appetite back more and more.  Getting worse sinus issues.

Rants/Raves/Questions? This week was really hard on me last year as it should have been the due date of my twins.  This year I am so grateful to be carrying their little brother or sister.

GTKY- What is your favorite Starbucks order?! Pumpkin spice latte half sweet.  So mad it's out of season already.
