Re: Monday Ticker Change 2/26

  • How many weeks are you/baby's size? 16 and avocado/chipmunk (minus the tail) according to the Bump app!

    How are you feeling? Good pregnancy-wise but (TMI) I have a yeast infection and I also have a subconjunctival hemorrhage from poking my eye trying to find/get out my contact that was already out. So I feel gross and uncomfortable and am wearing glasses which I hate.

    Any appts this week? Not until a week from today, I think its the MSAFP blood test for neural tube issues and a doppler. 

    Rants/raves/questions? None today.

    GTKY: What is your favorite item in your closet? My normal favorite is my Burberry coat that DH got me for the holidays last year, but it is too tight in the chest now  :(  My current favorites are my Rockstar maternity jeans and that shirt from Pea in the Pod I wore for HDBD last week.

  • How many weeks are you/baby's size? 15 weeks. Size of a magic 8 ball which seems way larger than the box of crayons ovia says I am. 

    How are you feeling? Good. A little sciatica issues, but nothing too bad. 

    Any appts this week? Not for another few weeks. 

    Rants/raves/questions? DDs daycare lady has been calling out so frequently. She goes to an in home center, so when the teacher is sick, there's no school. This is the fourth time since September. I get people get sick, but f me. Ive wound up taking off more days for her than for my or DDs illnesses combined. 

    GTKY: What is your favorite item in your closet? My comfy pants. I am NOT into designer wear or expensive clothes. Squeezing into skinny jeans is also not my favorite thing to do. So sweats would honestly be my favorite item lol.
  • How many weeks are you/baby's size? 14 weeks. Peach

    How are you feeling? I'm feeling pretty good. My energy is finally starting to pick up.

    Rants/raves/questions?

    GTKY: What is your favorite item in your closet? Right now I don't have any. Nothing fits properly from the my boobs being huge right now and my tummy poking out. I need to go shopping.

    How are you feeling?
    Nausea is almost gone! I’ve been on a cruise with little to no service so excited to be heading back to my family today and back on here and feeling better.

    Any appts this week?
    This Friday. Excited to hear the heart beat. I am not sure if I’ve been feeling kicks or if it’s just gas. You’d think I know by now since this is my 3rd pregnancy.

    Rants/raves/questions?
    Rant. I wish it was going by faster. I hate being pregnant and really hope the summer makes it go by fast.

    GTKY: (stolen from the weekend ticker changes because I'm not feeling creative) What is your favorite item in your closet?

    I have this green fuzzy cardigan from target I got two Black Fridays ago that I always grab so probably that and my Zella leggings. Tempted to try on lulalemon to see how they compare.

    17 weeks, pomegranate 

    How are you feeling?
    I’m okay. I went on a girls weekend trip to GA and I’m exhausted. 9 hours of driving plus some rough sleep made the trip a little rough. I’m happy to be home

    nope, I have one next week

    Rants/raves/questions?
    Rant: I wish this cough DH and DS gave me would go away already! 

    GTKY: (stolen from the weekend ticker changes because I'm not feeling creative) What is your favorite item in your closet?
    I have a purse obsession, I’m currently obsessed with Guatemalan bags! Otherwise I’m always in sweatpants around the house and kind of boring lol
  • Hi Girls!

    Any appts this week? Not until next week.  Ugh the wait. 

    Rants/raves/questions? I've been working my ass off today.  Busy days go by fast but I've barely had time to breathe.  

    GTKY: (stolen from the weekend ticker changes because I'm not feeling creative) What is your favorite item in your closet? My pajamas for sure but beyond that its got to by the lululemon align leggings I splurged on.  They are so comfortable.

  • @derbysquirrel great pics! You guys look so happy :)

    How many weeks are you/baby's size? 
    14 weeks, size of a treasure troll

    How are you feeling?
    Awful. I've been constantly dizzy since last Thursday. It doesn't let up or go away. It started with migraine and nausea and got rid of those, but still dizzy to the point where I can barely walk. Oh, and I'm left handed but I can no longer write normally/ feels like I don't have full control of my left arm. WTF is going on?

    Any appts this week?
    Going in tomorrow.

    Rants/raves/questions?
    Just wish I felt normal or at least shitty but normal.

    GTKY: (stolen from the weekend ticker changes because I'm not feeling creative) What is your favorite item in your closet?

    My favorite item right now are my bathing suits. I want to go lay on a beach :(

  • @derbysquirrel some people swear by the pregnancy pillows, it didn’t work for me (too long). I just use 4 regular pillows - one on each side, one for my head and one for in between my legs. If you have any extra pillows maybe try them. 

    @rocknrollmom that sounds intense! I had some dizziness for a couple of days there but nothing with my arms (well minus some carpel tunnel that is flaring now). I hope your doc can give you an easy explanation
