Pregnant Questions
1. What week are you in? Any new aches or pains? I'm in Week 21 and no new pains (fingers crossed) but the frequent potty trips are starting to wear on me
2. Any milestones this week? I went from not having felt the little guy to feeling the first definite kick to feeling a kick from the outside all within 3 days!
3. When is your next appointment? Will anything special happen at that appointment? Next appointment is scheduled for October 4th and I will have a follow up ultrasound since little dude didn't want to cooperate with getting a good shot of his spine during my 19 week A/S
4. What are you looking forward to this week? Hanging out with my DH's cousin down in Bellevue while his parents are in Europe for two weeks and getting to check out all of the stores that I usually miss when I'm home up north
5. Wednesday Confession? Hmmm, it took way too much willpower to stop myself from throwing Cheetos and cookies in the cart at the grocery store...everything looks so good!
6. Do you have a favorite online website that you like to shop for baby gear and supplies? So far I've just been looking for deals I can't pass up and have been able to get the crib mattress for less than half of retail on Amazon, a never used Moby Wrap for $20 off of Craigslist, and our carseat for $75 off on Babies R Us
7. What are some things you want to do or wished you did before the baby came? I'd like to go on a few more fall hikes before the weather gets gross, get the baby's room all squared away, sort through my million boxes of teaching supplies and books to narrow it all down to what I might use one day when I go back to the classroom, and read as many books as I can!
8. Are there any recommendations for safe morning sickness remedies? I did well with goldfish crackers and granny smith apples. Also I much preferred the taste of lemonade to water for a couple of weeks. Tart seemed to be my friend during the all day sickness.
9. Do you have a nickname for your baby? He has several: Reynauld (not sure where my cousin got that from but it has stuck), Little Dude, Homefry
10. Are you doing anything special during the month of September? Watching DH's cousin and celebrating DH's birthday
2. Any milestones this week? One week closer to 2nd tri.
3. When is your next appointment? Will anything special happen at that appointment? Oct. 4th, probably just a growth scan if anything.
4. What are you looking forward to this week? This weekend has been pretty awesome. I have the Everett Bridal Show today, and trying on bridesmaids dresses.
5. Wednesday Confession? Last week there was a day when all I at for lunch was Halloween candy. I felt pretty gross the rest of the day.
6. Do you have a favorite online website that you like to shop for baby gear and supplies? Not yet, but I am sure I will eventually.
7. What are some things you want to do or wished you did before the baby came? I want to go to the ocean, and maybe fly to see dh's family in Arizona.
8. Are there any recommendations for safe morning sickness remedies? There was a couple days where all I could stomach were dill pickles. They were the only thing that wouldn't make me sick. The sourness of the dill seemed to help a lot.
9. Do you have a nickname for your baby? We call the baby "bun", as in there is a bun in the oven.
10. Are you doing anything special during the month of September? My birthday is soon, and we are telling my 6 year old niece!
