How big is baby? An artichoke - Based on my scan today, baby is measuring ahead though weighing in at an estimated 9oz (average I'm seeing from a couple of sites is 6.7oz).  Not surprised, both my DS and DD were larger than the average bear

Appointment updates?  Had my anatomy scan today.  Baby is doing great, but I have a large cyst they'll be monitoring over the next couple of weeks.

Any new symptoms or changes?  I think I started to feel some fetal movement last night while laying down.  Equally likely that could have been dinner rumbling through.

Rants/Raves/Questions? It's in the 50s today in MA despite starting off the week in single digit temps.  Huh????

GTKY: What literary, TV or movie character can you most relate to right now?  Definitely that lead character from What to Expect When You're Expecting.

For those who haven't seen the movie - here is the clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEhrjH7hTPQ

How big is baby? A mango

Appointment updates? Anatomy scan is next Wednesday 

Any new symptoms or changes?  I finally gained 3 pounds! I haven't gained anything up until this point and the doctor was starting to get concerned. 

Rants/Raves/Questions? I don't understand how I keep getting these colds when I'm eating my weight in fruit every.single.day! 

GTKY: What literary, TV or movie character can you most relate to right now? Hmmmm I can't think of anything right now. Except this picture sums up how I feel

How big is baby? A banana.

Appointment updates? We had our anatomy scan this past Monday. Baby boy is healthy and very very active. He is about 9-10 inches long and weighs about 8-9 ounces.

Any new symptoms or changes?  Just starting to slow down a bit. It's getting harder to get off the couch.

Rants/Raves/Questions? Nothing this week.

How big is baby? Artichoke

Appointment updates? Nothing until 2/2 for my anatomy scan at 21w1d... 

Any new symptoms or changes?  Trying to wean down my Diclegis... on day 2 of only 1 at night.  Only slight nausea in the evenings so I'll wait until that goes away to try stopping all Dicelgis.

Rants/Raves/Questions? Nope...

GTKY: What literary, TV or movie character can you most relate to right now? Totally feel like Rebel Wilson a mix of Fat Amy from Pitch Perfect and Brynn from Bridesmaids...

How big is baby? As big as a chipmunk


Appointment updates? A/S on February 3rd

Any new symptoms or changes?  Just more strange feelings of the uterus growing. I'm still so surprised that I haven't gained virtually any weight. I fluctuate by ~5lbs/day, but I did that before pregnancy so I don't think that counts. No real bump going on either; people keep telling me I don't look pregnant. I figure I'll take that as long as I can because I am getting the feeling once I start showing it's going to be massive. 

Rants/Raves/Questions? We just started the process of getting our home ready to sell this week, with an anticipated list date of February 1st. Why do we torture ourselves like this? Poor DH isn't going to have a free night until next month because I don't know how to do half the things that need to be done. And he won't let me paint (even though I told him I'd take precautions). Also, I have never seen a professional stager at work in person, but they like to list a loooooooot of things to change/update. Pricey things. Ugh.

How big is baby? 
A pear or a pomegranate. Supposedly 5 inches long!
@Sirius37 I look forward to your answer to this every week! Especially since we share an EDD!

Appointment updates?
Had one yesterday which was fun because my kids joined me and were able to hear the hb. Then the MW let my son hear his own hb with the doppler so that was super cute. I was also able to schedule my anatomy scan for my bday, which is 2 weeks from yesterday. The countdown is on!

Any new symptoms or changes?  
I have had a little more heartburn in the last week. It eventually got really bad in my previous pregnancies so I am not excited about that. The beautiful thing is that it is over the moment baby comes out! 

Rants/Raves/Questions? 
I started feeling the baby about once a day over the last week so that has been amazing! Best part of pregnancy, hands down. I never got flutters, just tiny little jabs that cannot be mistaken!

LOL @michaela0704, I am with you!
