mostly good, super tired, no energy
I love cranberry sauce and stuffing. But I’m also looking forward to mashed potatoes this year.

Somehow baby is the size of a cd, a chipmunk and an avocado, all are completely different sizes so who knows 🤣
January 12 for prenatal, January 17 for anatomy scan.
I'm terribly hungry all of a sudden, I can't remember being this hungry in a long time, maybe my body is protesting my 1 pound gain so far.
I'm so overwhelmed today, I was hoping starting a new week would help because usually I'm really happy on Mondays and it just feels like such a nice fresh start to the routine after weekends. But both my son and my partner were an absolute challenge the past few days and I feel like today started off on the emptiest cup.
My son also refuses to sleep unless I carry him around for minimum 30 minutes for naps and bedtime and I was trying to honor the recently clinginess because he's probably feeling apprehensive about change etc but now I've totally screwed up my shoulder and it's such a crappy choice, don't carry my toddler or wreck my body more than it already is. I had two years of no drama sleeping from him, and I guess this is my comeuppance at a time I really need the stability of good sleep routines. Bleh. I'm trying to get him to fall asleep on his own at bedtime again but he keeps doing this thing where he sleeps in every morning and then naps later in the afternoon and then doesn't want to sleep until 11pm, but he isn't ready to completely drop his nap and I don't want to start waking him up in the morning if he needs rest. I hope it's just a rough two weeks and it'll get better without any drastic schedule change because that won't go over well. He's never done this before so I'm overwhelmed and feel like a failure.
I don't think I have one. I don't like traditional holiday foods. I also don't have anything I consistently make every year.
Some years when I'm not pregnant I make a really good rum cake from scratch.

Team boy!
Baby is the size of a donut.
I just had an appt Friday. Tsh is a little high, so just need a minor med adjustment.
I vomit less and less, still get nauseous though. A lot of headaches. My breaststroke and nipples hurt a lot most days. I'm so tired. My skin is so dry. I will feel hungry but be unable to eat much in one sitting.
Rants/raves: our house is still unfinished and we're planning to get the upstairs bedroom finished after Christmas and then get the baby room done after that, but it just feels like such a big job. Even though my husband does most of the work, living in a construction zone is the worst and I'm not ready for it but I want the work completed.
Questions:
Favorite holiday dish: I don't really have one because we don't do the same foods every Christmas. But, I always love Mac n cheese in any occasion at any time. I like snacky appetizer type foods a lot so I love a good potluck, which we are doing (I'm hosting yet again) Christmas eve.
Additional rant: we are always stuck hosting because we have the biggest house of all my husband's family, so we end up having to have holidays and events here which I normally love. But I'm so exhausted and it's just one more thing on my plate
@hitcj4687 I'm so exhausted thinking about you having to do all that, I could never but saying no to something everyone expects you to do is so hard too. I hope it goes well and you can take the day after plenty easy and rest a bunch!
None really, just wishing I had kept track somewhere of when I felt movement with DS and DD for reference though
Not sure I have a favourite, I'm just happy to eat especially if I'm not the one cooking
tired. Anxious (awaiting results of amniocentesis)
any encouragement please in regards to my results for my amniocentesis. I won’t receive results til after Christmas so it will be a long weekend.
looking forward to Mashed Potatoes
They did actually note that I wasn't sure about having felt any movement by 16 weeks with my last pregnancy but was definitely feeling regular movement at 20 weeks. And apparently I wasn't under midwifery care until I was 26 weeks with my first. So will likely (hopefully) be feeling this LO soon being 17 weeks tomorrow but who knows! Hoping we're all feeling comforting little baby kicks and dances regularly very soon..
