Re: Weekend Ticker Change 2/25 & 2/26

  • How far along are you?  12 weeks on Sunday!

    How big is baby? a chicken nugget

    Upcoming appointments this week? No :( 3/6, so a week from Monday 

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? Dude. It's not new, but no one warned me how many boogers I would have, and how much I would burp. Also have a second yeast infection. Yay. Nausea, fatigue, constipation, etc. are otherwise the same: ever present, and annoying. But it will all be worth it when I hold this baby! 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I went two weeks without any spotting, and got the go ahead to have sex. And then immediately spotted again. So this might be a really long 9 months. :expressionless: 

    GTKY: You're sequestered on a jury, and they'll only let you have five movies in your hotel room. Which five do you choose?  
    The Sound of Music, Grease, Hook, Les Miserables, and Pans Labyrinth - something for any mood.

    Just now starting to get these horrid headaches everyone has been talking about! I think my nausea will calm down once I stop my progesterone injections. Emotions have been off the chain! I ugly cried for almost an hour before I posted our announcement photo on facebook. Don't know why, I was just completely overwhelmed!

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    So happy and grateful that I've made it this far!! I bought my gender reveal party shirt yesterday. Only 2 more weeks til we know!!!!

    GTKY: You're sequestered on a jury, and they'll only let you have five movies in your hotel room. Which five do you choose? 
    That's really tough. I guess I would have a disney movie and then some funny ones like Identity Thief, Miss Congeniality, Just Like Heaven or Pretty Woman. I love movies so only 5 would be really hard!!

    ooo...probably would just take the 1st 5 Harry Potter films. I love them and I usually fall asleep while watching also because they are so long so I'd be entertained maybe slightly annoyed i dont have the rest of em, but i watch em over and over and out of sequence on TV all the time. I wouldn't pick my other favorite movies because I have to be in the mood for them...and Im always in the mood for Harry potter.

    Upcoming appointments this week? Nope, nothing for a few weeks

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? The usual.  Hopefully the nausea and fatigue starts to die down soon. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  I can't believe second trimester is already here!  I'm so excited for the bump to start becoming more bump and less blump haha and for the symptoms to die down.

    Missed this til now!

    How far along are you? 10+1 now

    How big is baby? kumkwat (i had no clue what this was, but then DH, BIL, and I were in a garden store and lo' and behold, a kumkwat plant! So obviously I squeal and say 'that's how big our baby is this week!!!" and they both laughed at me :P )

    Upcoming appointments this week? yes, first appt with midwife on Friday now that I've transfered over from my gyn.

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? nope. just give me alllll the crunchy, salty things. I am usually a sweet tooth, but since being KU, I have converted to salty.  We got these new honey roasted peanuts though, and they're the BEST honey roasted peanuts I've ever had...perfect sweet/salty combo.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  nope, not now

    GTKY: You're sequestered on a jury, and they'll only let you have five movies in your hotel room. Which five do you choose? 
    The Sound of Music (so happy with how many of you have chosen this one!), Beauty and the Best, Lion King, Mrs. Doubtfire, and What About Bob. I dunno, I guess I like Disney and singing movies along with ridiculous comedies lol

  • How far along are you? 13 weeks (as of Saturday)

    How big is baby? a matchbox car

    Upcoming appointments this week? Yes! first real check-up + heartbeat listen on Tuesday! It has been a long 4 weeks since my confirmation appt!

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? still hunger nausea. and the inconsistent food aversions are not leaving. But neither is my craving for buffalo wing sauce and I'm ok with that.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  why do some sites say week 13 starts the second trimester and others make you wait until the end of week 13? why can't we all get along?! J/k. I'm just really ready for the second trimester and it doesn't feel like it's here based on the symptoms. 

    GTKY: You're sequestered on a jury, and they'll only let you have five movies in your hotel room. Which five do you choose? 
    Beauty and the Beast, Moulin Rouge, Just Go With It, Lord of the Rings (fellowship), Pirates of the Caribbean (the first one ... cuz it's the only one)
  • @sparksfly ugh, yes to the different definitions of second tri. I've seen anything from week 12-14! Crazy. Also, the end of the "embryonic phase". I had some apps tell me at the end of week 8 that my baby was officially a fetus. I'm in week 10 now and other apps and books are telling me my baby is officially a fetus now. Why are first tri boundaries so weird and subjective?

    How far along are you? 13 Weeks on Sat

    How big is baby? lemon

    Upcoming appointments this week? NT Scan tomorrow! 

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? Nothing new just this non stop headache 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  Nothing really. Im choosing to go with the trimester calculation methods that end the 1st trimester at 12 w and/or 13w3d because Im tired of waiting for week 14 :)

    hmmmm can I just get the boxed set of friends, does that count?

  • I just got my third, and hopefully final, due date on Friday- 9/23, so now I'm in here!  Previously, I had been told 9/13 and 9/19.  Basically, I'm pretty sure they're just making it up at this point! 

    How far along: 10 weeks. Supposedly. We will see. 

    How big is baby: a lime

    Upcoming appointments this week: just had one on Friday, hopefully hearing back about all my blood tests soon. Next midwife appointment is in a month. Have to make an appointment with the specialist for ultrasound and genetic counseling (I got pregnant two months after turning 35, so I'm AMA. Get me my walker.)

    New symptoms/cravings/changes: I've moved on from wanting all carbs to wanting all protein all the time. I've gone from dry heaving to actually throwing up-super fun. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions: not really. 

    5 Movies: Bring It On, Pitch Perfect, Troop Beverly Hills, Overboard (with Goldie Hawn), Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead 
  • @SuperKristy85 I'd say the boxed set of Friends counts as 1 item. :) Great choice!
  • How far along are you? 
    11 weeks! 

    How big is baby? 
    Lime!

    Upcoming appointments this week? 
    Nothing until 3/14, that's my genetic counseling, NT scan and cell free DNA blood draw.  I'm also considered AMA as I got pregnant a month after turning 35.

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? 
    Not really, thruthfullh this pregnancy had been a piece of cake on symptoms! Mild nausea, not tired, not really cranky or anything.  Food aversions would be the biggest but it's primarily to protein. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    Rant - Bronchitis and an ear infection going on over here!  Not fun or exciting or even very nice!  Also I got bit by a tick this weekend and now have to wait to see if the tick has Lyme disease and then to see if I have Lyme disease..... grrrr.

    GTKY: You're sequestered on a jury, and they'll only let you have five movies in your hotel room. Which five do you choose? 
    This is super hard.... Fight Club, Clueless, Biodome, The Notebook, and Goodfellas
  • How far along are you?

    matchbox car

    Upcoming appointments this week? 
    None for me

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? 
    I still feel sick - not morning sickness, just unsettled stomach. Especially when I eat healthy like fresh fruits and veggies. I feel fine when I eat chocolate and junk food  :/

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    I hate high school students right now. This is the time of year I seriously think about resigning and DH always talks me out of it. 

    GTKY: You're sequestered on a jury, and they'll only let you have five movies in your hotel room. Which five do you choose? 
    Titanic (a good time killer), Up (got to have my Disney), Pirates of the Caribbean (looking at J. Depp never gets old, Thor (looking at T. Hiddleson never gets old either), and The Great Gatsby (my favorite story about a love triangle).

  • How far along are you? 11 weeks 2 days

    How big is baby? A lime!

    Upcoming appointments this week? Not for another 2 weeks.

    Any new symptoms, changes, or cravings? Not really, thankfully this pregnancy and my last were pretty symptom free. Maybe craving sweets- love Raspberry Sherbert! Also, baking cookies tonight!

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Messaged the nurse for my OB asking about getting a massage this early in pregnancy because my husband's bday is next week and I was gonna schedule one for us this weekend. She said to talk to him at my next apt (in 2 weeks). That's not helping me at all. Still waiting to hear back after I again requested she asks him. 

    GTKY: You're sequestered on a jury, and they'll only let you have five movies in your hotel room. Which five do you choose?
    Hmm. This is tough. Dirty Dancing: Havana nights, 17 Again, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Pitch Perfect, The Lion King. Or the Dexter series.
