Estimated due date (EDD): Scheduled c-section planned for 11/10/2020, but offical due date is 11/15/2020
Week of pregnancy: 17 weeks + 1 day
Baby is the size of: Grapefruit, bell pepper, a stapler, or a disposable camera
Upcoming Appointments: Anatomy scan on 7/2/2020, where I have to start paying the deposit of the delivery fees
Rant/Rave: Having a baby costs too much money LOL
GTKY: What did you want to be when you were a kid? Did you follow your dreams or choose to do something different? As a kid I think I wanted to be a teacher. I was in school for criminal justice, I wanted to do nonprofit work for the innocence project - but I got pregnant with DD1 instead. Now, I work in employee benefits, with all the glory...
Estimated due date (EDD): According to my dating ultrasound November 18th, blood work says November 14th.
Week of pregnancy: 18😳 on Wednesday!
Baby is the size of: pint of Ben and Jerry's or sweet potato.
Upcoming Appointments: June 29th OB appointment/Anatomy scan!!!
Rant/Rave: Rant-irritated that in my state things have been and continue to open up except public bathrooms. 🤦♀️ Rave- I passed my 3hr glucose test!
GTKY: What did you want to be when you were a kid? Don't remember 🤷♀️ but in high school my plan was to graduate from nursing school. I got my BSN 8 years ago! Currently staying home with my 4yo.
Baby is the size of: Pomagranite, the length of a Hershey’s bar
Upcoming Appointments: June 18 With neurology to make sure pregnancy isn’t triggering a condition I’m in remission for. July 2nd for anatomy scan. Also need to schedule my echocardiogram.
Rant/Rave: I can’t believe we are having a boy! I’m excited and nervous all at once! Haha. I didn’t have any brothers so I’m not really familiar with having a boy in the family.
GTKY: What did you want to be when you were a kid? Did you follow your dreams
or choose to do something different? I really really wanted to be a doctor. But in high school I was horrible at math and science and kind of realized by the time I was applying for college that ai should probably find another passion. I currently work for a Project Management Office of an IT Application Development department.
Upcoming Appointments: tomorrow is the fetal echocardiogram and next Tuesday (6/23) is our anatomy scan
Rant/Rave: I felt the baby move for the first time this weekend!!!
GTKY: What did you want to be when you were a kid? Did you follow your dreams
or choose to do something different? I wanted to be a marine biologist. I’m a veterinarian, so I am still working with animals, but not the ones I originally planned on.
Rant/Rave: maybe I'm weird, but I don't like people commenting on how much/little I'm showing. My mil doesn't seem to understand.
GTKY: What did you want to be when you were a kid? Did you follow your dreams or choose to do something different? I honestly don't remember. At one point I settled on being an archaeologist, but then realized that would be difficult to do with a family. So Geography major/Spanish minor was the closest I came up with.
Rant/Rave: @crystalmir91385 I’m with you on the comments about showing. It’s not a convincing pregnancy belly yet so any comments just make me feel fat
GTKY: What did you want to be when you were a kid? Did you follow your dreams
or choose to do something different? I’m going to assume it was a teacher, but I studied engineering and now doing more of a business management role
@doublestroller good to know I'm not the only one. Again today she said "hate to tell you, but you definitely look pregnant." I'm still wearing ALL the same jeans and haven't gained a single pound, so what does that mean about how I looked before?...
@crystalmir91385 I am with you. It can just be uncomfortable in general having anyone commenting on your body.... especially because that’s not something that is socially acceptable outside of pregnancy - so why is it suddenly acceptable when you’re pregnant???
@vetgirl2011 congrats!!! We found out last week we are having a boy too and I’m both scared and beyond excited! Haha
