Team blue/pink/green: Blue

Upcoming Appointments: Anatomy scan on Thursday!

How are you feeling?: Dare I say, maybe slightly better? Still.suffering from some nausea and reflux, but it has seemed more bearable the last few days. I was really busy though so that probably helped.

Rants/Raves: Back to work tomorrow, ugh. I like my job okay, but it has been nice having two long weekends in a row. We also started the process of moving my DD to the guest room today! Excited to be starting that process so we can actually get stuff organized. 

Questions: NATM

GTKY: Any New Year’s Resolutions? Nothing official, but trying to walk/move every day.

How are you feeling?: good! 
Rants/Raves: had to go back to work today after two weeks off, boo 👎🏻 
Questions: nothing, but a follow up from last week- she said not gaining right now is not really a concern for me since I had weight to lose before pregnancy and I’m eating a lot healthier with the diabetes concerns. 
GTKY: Any New Year’s Resolutions? Nothing official, just trying to be healthier- until the baby comes and after. Trying to keep up my GD diet for the most part after baby comes to try to lose preg weight plus some.

Baby is the size of a: endive (??)
Team blue/pink/green: blue 
Upcoming Appointments: 1/17 standard check up 
How are you feeling?: Overall I would say good....some shortness of breath, round ligament pain and still with the intermittent nausea. I am not thriving or glowing this time around, that is for sure. 
Rants/Raves: 
Questions: none 
GTKY: Any New Year’s Resolutions? I would like to focus more time on playing with my kids. I feel like when I am home with them all I do is clean/cook/plan/run errands lately and I miss them, is that weird? I want to set aside either a morning or afternoon each day to just play instead of spending the whole day doing stuff.

Baby is the size of a:
Team blue/pink/green: pink
Upcoming Appointments: Tomorrow for a 18 week check, then A/S
How are you feeling?: pretty great. Shortness of breath and really intense cravings (like I made noodles at 8:30 last night because all I could think about was noodles with butter and shredded cheese), but otherwise normal!
Rants/Raves: Ugh just anxious. PGAL anxiety is the rant forever. I feel so much smaller this time than I was with the others and I'm not feeling a ton of movement, which I know is *technically* normal still but I felt movement at 13 weeks with my first, so it's not normal for me.
Questions: natm
GTKY: Any New Year’s Resolutions? I want to focus more on making decisions that are best for me and my family with less concern for what outside people think I should be doing.

Baby is the size of a: Mr. potato head
Team blue/pink/green: blue
Upcoming Appointments: 1/17 I think?
How are you feeling?: ok! Heartburn is annoying but not terrible. I could do without this guy stomping on my cervix every so often, though.
Rants/Raves: My husband finally got to feel the baby move last night! We have been trying for days but every time dad’s hand goes on the belly, baby stops moving. DH says little dude knows to behave when dad’s watching lol
Questions: none
GTKY: Any New Year’s Resolutions? Survive being new parents 😂

Upcoming Appointments: virtual appointment 1/12
How are you feeling?: My sinus infection is trying to claw its way back, so I'm calling my doctor today to see if I can get stronger antibiotics. But on the plus side, little guy is moving a ton! 
Rants/Raves: DD moved up to the 3.5-year-olds room at school today. A ton of kids are moving up at the same time, so hopefully that should ease the transition. I told her to pick out an outfit that would show the new teacher who she was and she chose a dress with oranges on it 
Questions: nope
GTKY: Any New Year’s Resolutions? No official resolutions, but plenty of goals, the biggest one being the bedroom switch as we prepare for this baby's arrival. The first step is getting rid of our gigantic desk and BIL already said he would take it! Now to pry him out of his house to haul it away...

How are you feeling?: Good. Back at work today. Which meh to be back at work, but happy to be back to routine.

@gingermama46 Mine is sleeping horribly too! I think she's starting to get nightmares or have some kind of sleep paralysis: she was hysterical last night and kept saying "I want to stand up" and refused to put blankets on. She slept the rest of the night with no blankets at all.

Team blue/pink/green: green
Upcoming Appointments: checkup in a few weeks
How are you feeling?: good! I think my nausea finally passed, mostly.
Rants/Raves: I love the December holidays but I also kinda love how clean and big my house feels when all the decorations are put away and the tree is taken down. 
Questions: nope 
GTKY: Any New Year’s Resolutions? Changing all my passwords away from the name of a dog that died years ago. 😅 Not very secure for everything to be the same password for so long it outlives the pet it was named after. And it’s been enough time I won’t feel like I’m offending the memory of my dog by changing the passwords.
