Monday Ticker Change - April 2

Isn't it weird that January seemed to last 3 months and March came and went so quickly?  Am I the only one that feels that way?

How far along are you/how big is baby?
20 weeks. Banana.

How are you feeling?
Alright. Sleep is still a struggle, and this baby feels really low in my pelvis. 

Rants/raves/questions?
I'm supposed to have my anatomy scan today, and they just called trying to reschedule because of snow. The snow is ending soon, and my appointment isn't for another hour. The roads are clear. I told them to try to keep me in if they could cuz I have off of work and if I have to reschedule, then I have to take another day off. 

Any appointments this week?
Supposed to have anatomy scan today.

I am non judgmental about others appearances. I hate when my friends are criticizing someone's nose or clothes. Seems so petty to me.

How far along are you/how big is baby?  I'm 20 weeks today but baby is measuring about a week ahead of schedule so he's about the size of a  an endive.  

How are you feeling? Physically - pretty good still.  I'm starting to feel him moving around which is so exciting.  He seemed to be really active during Easter Mass yesterday morning which I thought was a riot.  Emotionally- (after last week's difficult A/S appt  (clicky if you want to read about my traumatic A/S) - much better.  I just need to get through the next several weeks and hear that baby boy is going to be okay with this very manageable issue and we will be back on track.  In the meantime, I'm a little bitter that some of the mom-to-be joy was robbed from me last week and now I have to work to get it back.  It helped this weekend to go to my yoga class, spend time with my family and go to Mass (I hadn't been in a while and I'm so glad I went on Sunday).  My mom even bought baby boy a couple of adorable sleepers from BRU at their poor excuse for a liquidation sale.  

Rants/raves/questions? I think my baby shower is scheduled for July 8.  One of my closest friends offered to host at her home. So exciting!

Any appointments this week? Oh yes.  We are meeting with a pedi cardiologist tomorrow morning and having a fetal echo cardiogram which my hospital does as a precaution for every pregnancy that has even the smallest of abnormalities.  We have no reason to think there is a concern with is heart but its happening anyway.  Immediately after we have our monthly OB appointment.  I'm looking forward to talking to hear about the A/S and hopeful she will be reassuring.  

GTKY: What is one of your favorite personality traits about yourself? I think I have a pretty good sense of humor.  As far as I can tell I'm hilarious.

How far along are you/how big is baby? 22 weeks. Spaghetti squash. 

How are you feeling? Pregnancy wise I'm feeling good, but I picked up the flu at the end of our trip, so now I'm sick and miserable. 

Rants/raves/questions? Antibiotics seemed to mostly clear up my Chihuahua's swollen lymph node, so she probably doesn't have lymphoma or the plague. Yay.

Any appointments this week? Just for the dog. I only get pg appts every four weeks still.

I'm logical and rational, at least about as much as anyone can be. This keeps me pretty grounded, and I'm hard to manipulate with emotional appeals.

I agree with March flying by! I got my BFP on 12/1 so I have now hit 4 months of being knowingly pregnant and have only 4 full months to go (at most)!

How far along are you/how big is baby? 21/endive. Endive? Come on TB.

How are you feeling? Sleepy today. Second tri insomnia has kicked in for me and I've been having trouble falling asleep before 1 or 2. It was fine this weekend when I could sleep in but today I am groggy and dragging. I also had terrible back pain on Saturday that I think was actually terrible constipation, I was a busy bee and didn't realize I hadn't gone to the bathroom and then yesterday (TMI warning) I pooped soooo much and my back felt instantly better. I was showing DH pictures of what happens to the intestines and other organs as the uterus grows and he was like "oww that is painful just to look at."

Rants/raves/questions? Nothing I can think of.

Any appointments this week? Nope, nothing until follow up scan of my placenta on 4/23 to see if it is moving further away from my cervix.

Nope. Not until the end of the month.

Ummm . . . I really like how I can keep so many different schedules straight. Like I know H's work and play schedules, my own, the main events at work, and both kids preferred schedules.

@princesslockness thanks! I did. I called back and they said the techs just came in, and I could get there right away. So I did!
