Any new/same symptoms? I am still throwing up every single morning. I had 3 days of relief with some meds but those have stopped working for me.
Upcoming appointments this week? Nope not until my a/s with the MFM on March 8 and then I meet with my OB on the 10th
Rants/Raves/Questions? I am so over being pregnant and being absolutely miserable. I am ready to not wake up feeling like I was hit by a train. I am also sick of having to pee every 20 minutes at night, I don't pee that much during the day so it's extremely annoying that I can't sleep a full night because I have to pee so damn much. I hate that I have no energy to play with my kids when I get home from work. This just turned into a bitchfest but oh well.
GTKY: What is your favorite cartoon from your childhood? I loved the Rugrats. I still watch some of the episodes if I see them when I'm scrolling through channels.

How big is baby? The size of a small banana, according to my app.
Any new/same symptoms? Nothing new at this point. I've had to take tums a few times for minor heartburn, but it hasn't been bad. I'm mostly just paranoid about it because I remember how terrible it was last time.
Upcoming appointments this week? No. I have a fetal echo coming up on March 6 and then my normal OB appt on the 13th.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Rave: my little boy started sleeping through the night consistently last month AND I have been making it until about 5 before I have to get IP to pee, which has been amazing!! Rant: this morning he woke up at 5:15. I nursed him and put him back down but he never fell back to sleep. Took an early nap... that lasted a whopping 45 minutes. Sigh. I really shouldn't complain-- he's normally a great sleeper.
GTKY: What is your favorite cartoon from your childhood? I don't remember watching many cartoons but I loved Out of This World when I was in elementary school.
Any new/same symptoms? Same symptoms. Still waiting for my morning sickness (well really night time sickness) to go away....
Upcoming appointments this week? Anatomy scan next Friday. Can't wait.
Rants/Raves/Questions?@cssme13 - I feel the same. I have equally hated all three of my pregnancies and I hate most of all not having any energy.
GTKY: What is your favorite cartoon from your childhood? Hmmm I remember watching Tiny Toons after school and the smurfs on Saturday morning. He-Man too. Haha, I'm totally dating myself.
How big is baby? He's the size of a banana or Belgian endive... 6.5 inches long, and around 10.5 ounces
Any new/same symptoms? Discharge continues and sporadic constipation... OB gave me a prescription for Colace.
Upcoming appointments this week? 2nd OB appt yesterday, went great! A/S today!! I can't wait!
Rants/Raves/Questions? Baby boy is twice the size he was 4 weeks ago, I'm amazed! He looks like baby now!
GTKY: What is your favorite cartoon from your childhood? My favorite cartoons were Alvin and the Chipmunks, Duck Tales, Jem and the Holograms and He-Man! (80's child) *Btw, He-Man is on Netflix!!!
@Sassenach1743 - I was thinking about Jem too! Loved that show! And I heard there is going to be a new Duck Tales coming out. Which I will make my children watch with me.
And I change my answer for symptoms.... Nose bleeds. Not always full on nose bleeds but every time i blow my nose and also lots of dried blood hanging out in there. So uncomfortable. Ugh.
Any new/same symptoms? Still having pelvic pain but its mostly been at work
Upcoming appointments this week? I had my anatomy scan last Friday so nothing until next month
Rants/Raves/Questions? this isn't all the time, but just as I am writing this I am at work and feel like complete death, not sure how I am going to make it until July!
GTKY: What is your favorite cartoon from your childhood? either Doug or Rugrats, I was really into Nickelodeon
@cssme13 I’m sorry that this pregnancy is being so tough on you!
@mamadcb Hooray for sleeping through the night! As a FTM, I can’t fully commiserate with sleepless nights, but I know my time is limited…
@Sassenach1743 I can’t believe how quickly they grow during this stage!
How far along are you? 18 weeks (on Thursday)
How big is baby? An artichoke, which is ironically my lunch...
Any new/same symptoms? Holy hip pain! I'm hoping some stretches will help - I haven't been this sore since I was training for races.
Upcoming appointments this week? Not until my A/S and midwife appointment March 6.
Rants/Raves/Questions? This Midwest weather needs to get it's shit together. 70 on Wednesday and snow Friday. Ugh.
GTKY: What is your favorite cartoon from your childhood? Ahhh, as a late 80s baby, there are so many good ones. Tom and Jerry still pops in my head first, though!
