How are you feeling? Good! Still nauseated, sciatic pain, etc lol.
Raves/Rants: Work Christmas party was on Friday which was super fun! It was at one of our partner gyms and I was so impressed by the amenities! We were supposed to look at houses on Saturday but our realtor didn't get back to use until later in the day and was like "no new houses to show you guys"... which was disappointing.
Questions: Nope!
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? Riding a dirtbike my brother was working on and he didn't put the chain guard back on. I ended up finding out there were no brakes so I slid it onto it's side and the chain ripped apart my leg. So gross lol. My brother was like "don't tell mom".. lol

Baby is the size of a(n): Asparagus... 16 inch long asparagus... who has asparagus that size?
Upcoming appointments: Tomorrow just a check up
How are you feeling? Like I overdid it at the gym and now I'm majorly majorly waddling.
Raves/Rants: Sleeping is getting rough. Being uncomfortable all the time is setting in. I'm getting to that point where I believe being asked to work is unacceptable so basically I'm about to whine and complain for the next 2 months. Seriously though if men had to be pregnant, this wouldn't even be a thing. Leave would start before the baby was born and extend until a year when solid food and sleep became regular again.
Questions:
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? I sunburned my eyes Spring skiing last year like an absolute idiot. Worst pain I've ever experienced in my life! Worse than labor and birth IMO (lasted longer and there were no breaks from the pain as eyes being closed still hurt like hell).
Diagnosed with PCOS & Hashimoto's

Questions:
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? Can’t think of a specific one bc I’m constantly injuring myself in dumb ways - I usually have a few random bruises that I can’t remember how I got

Baby is the size of a(n): carton of eggs?
Upcoming appointments: 12/16
How are you feeling? Tired. Been having a hard time sleeping lately due to back pain. Otherwise good, though.
Raves/Rants: A lot of people in the symptom thread have mentioned their baby hanging out in their ribs. Mine prefers the top curve of the bump right below the chest. When she gets snuggled up against there, the skin gets really sore and feels like it will split open and she'll come out Alien chest-burster style. Nugget, for the love of god, pick a different spot!
Questions: None right now.
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? It was my 3rd day on the job in an industrial environment. Because the floors were removed, there was a gap between me and some steps. Rather than just calmly stepping over the gap, I took a running start, leapt over it, overshot, and cut my head on a locker on the wall against the top of the steps. They announced it over the loud speaker and had to stop all work due to an injury on site. I was so embarrassed.
I was at the Pittsburgh airport with my FrIends and started to go down an escalator when we realized we needed to go the other way. Instead of going down and coming back up the other side I tried to run back up the three of four steps and bit it. Cut my knee and toe. My friends and a security guard almost owes their pants laughing.

Questions:
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? In April of this year I wanted to get back in shape post baby so I signed up with a run club to train. On my first practice run I brought my stroller and my dog....some dog got loose from their yard, jumped on me, knocked me down and I broke my spine. Exercise is dangerous guys.

GTKY: When I was 16, I scratched my cornea when trying to break open a glow stick. The insides shot straight into my eye.

Baby is the size of a(n): weighs as much as something I can’t recall... coke can? Sounds small. IDK.
Upcoming appointments: next week for 32 wk!
How are you feeling? Overall okay. Tired more than in second tri. Achier, more often. Sitting is ache inducing, but I have a donut to sit on now, which vastly improves the experience.
Raves/Rants: Rave- Christmas shopping is done, husband is almost finished with finals (which means more help with baby stuff soon), a getaway this weekend, stressful project at work nearing its end this week!
Questions:
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? I remember as a kid, at a water park, sitting on one of those things that shoots water straight up into the air quite forcefully, thinking I’d just make it stop. Didn’t occur to child me that we have a hole in our rear end, and the water would go there rather than just stop. I wasn’t seriously injured, but it was memorably unpleasant. I also nearly cut the tip of my thumb off by not paying attention to the direction of a blade when removing orange peel bits off a knife someone used to spear them with. Made it about halfway through my thumb.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: pink
Baby is the size of a(n): She feels like the size of a bowling ball
Upcoming appointments: Wednesday for a checkup
How are you feeling? tired. hungry. My legs continue to feel swollen or restless. I also feel like I lost my compassion for my job and just don’t care about any of it anymore. I’m ready to be on leave.
Raves/Rants: my car overheated the other day and the dealership says it has $700 in damage. Horrible timing with the holidays + baby on the way.
Questions:
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? I was cleaning out the pool at my in laws house because my husband was supposed to do it but he’s quite the procrastinator. I passive aggressively grabbed the net and started getting the leaves out when my husband comes to the window and starts yelling at me to stop. I got distracted and my foot fell through the drain and I ended up horribly spraining my ankle and my husband said it looked like my whole leg had snapped in half because of the way I fell.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: 💙
Baby is the size of a(n): as long as a carton of a dozen eggs
Upcoming appointments: December 16th
How are you feeling? I am in pain daily from my hips. Other than that, constantly hungry.
Raves/Rants: I don't think baby boy will be staying put until his due date. I'm not mad about it, but I don't think he will be on the inside much longer.
Questions: None
GTKY: What’s the dumbest way you've been injured? I was maybe 13. There was a spot that always accumulates water and it was cold outside, so the spot froze, creating a nice patch of ice. I decided to purposely slide back and forth across the ice. Slid too hard, saw the sky and busted my ass.
