Re: TTGP Grad Check-In 6.4
How far along are you? 5w1d
</div><div>Upcoming Appointments? First Scan to see GS/YS is next Friday, 6/11. Second scan to hear HB would be the following, 6/18. Not sure about the rest of my RE appointments, but I did book my first MW appointment for 8w on June 30th.
</div><div>Cravings/Symptoms? You mean, besides queso??? lmao Mostly salty stuff, but nothing I don't usually enjoy. Symptom wise, I don't have many complaints. Just exhausted. And sore. And cranky! lol But I'll take it.
</div><div>How are you doing? Rants/Raves/Randoms? WFH is a double edged sword, to say the least. Luckily, come to find out today that now that our transfers are done, DH really doesn't care if I keep working lol Sigh. It will be good to stay covered between now and when I graduate from the RE, but beyond that. <<shrug emojii>> It sounds like between the two of us, I'm more concerned with keeping my job until we find a house, so we can move, but he's honestly in no rush to buy, especially with the market the way it is. So we'll just have to see what happens...
Random Rave!!! We saw a cardinal! Looked out the kitchen door and it was Right There sitting on the railing! So special.
</div><div>Questions? NATM</div>
House wise, mostly we just need a little more space on the property itself. DH has various vehicles and small equipment for work, so the kind of stuff you can't just part in any generic suburban lot, and he also needs shop space to get out there and make noise and not be bothersome. Where we are now is already pretty rural, so it would be hard to go "backwards" into something with less space / closer neighbors etc, kwim? It will be tough to find the sweet spot because we don't want to be too far from the town where our Church is, but we need the space, and we can't spend an *actual* fortune! ha Wish us luck! There is currently one house we Love that's at the top of our budget, and also the edge of how far out we want to be (but way closer to SIL), but the house itself is similar era to the one we rent now, just in way nicer shape! So we would love that, but who knows if it will still be available by the time we get our last few things in order here. Everything is selling so fast!
5w1d
Haven't schedule it yet, waiting on my PCM to put in my referral to OB
So far, I've been eating beef jerky sticks like they're going out of style, but I think that's mainly a protein thing than a specific-food thing. Symptom-wise, just more tired, cranky (I forgot how much of an angry pregnant lady I was last time), and peeing more.
I'm doing okay. Work is kicking my butt, but when doesn't it? I oversee five teams of 3-4 people each, so it's a lot sometimes. There's always one "problem child" that I have to stay on top of, which makes me feel like the bad guy. Especially because these are grown-ass adults. In fact, a few of them are either the same age as me or older than I am, so....wtf. Ugh.
Nah
Due with baby #2: Feb 2022
Rants/Raves/Randoms? Nothing currently
