Re: *~*~*~* Thursday Ticker Change*~*~*~*
How are you feeling? Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? tired, really tired. LOTS! Yes, I can see kicks here and there from the outside.
Upcoming appointments? Updates? She is a stinker! She wasn't cooperating for the A/S so we have to go back on V-Day for another one. (not complaining really!) 24 week appt and GTT the first full week of Feb too.
Rants/Raves? Raves: I have totally lost my filter and not taking shit from anyone. I have gotten a lot of free services because of this. Rants: my 2.5 year old is sleeping like shit and wanting to come in bed with us. I am sore and tired.
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books? I ordered the free one someone posted about in here early one, but I have been really bad with it. I read a lot with my first, so no.. I ain't got no time for that. I am going to a 123 magic seminar next week though.
Week? 25
How are you feeling? I'm feeling pretty good! I haven't really seen anything on the outside but feel him all the time.
Upcoming appointments? I totally blew the one-hour glucose test so they're having me take the three-hour on Saturday. I was told to follow basic diabetic guidelines until my test Saturday so meal planning has been a bit of a new challenge this week.
Rants/Raves? No rants really this week but I'm super excited about the progress DH and I are making on the baby's room!
GTKY: I had great intentions of keeping a pregnancy journal but have totally failed. I randomly will keep track of different thoughts as they strike me but I have not been good at this. Right now, the pregnancy books I'm reading are What to Expect and Bumptabulous, which is just a fun light read of 20 moms sharing their pregnancy experience.
How are you feeling? Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? I'm feeling achy, and I'm more ravenous than I've ever been. I can feel her move around and kick, and we can see her moving around on the outside
Upcoming appointments? Updates? A visit next week, then the dreaded glucose test in a couple of weeks.
Rants/Raves? Rants: Just started a new job and haven't told them about the pregnancy yet. It's pretty obvious, but I wear very baggy clothes and scarves. Every single night I come home and MIL a) asks if they've commented on my size, and b) tells me I'm so huge she doesn't know how they're so blind. It's not really that bad in the grand scheme of things, it's just fucking annoying. Raves: My H has been really supportive of me taking this job and working FT. Also, I'm getting new clothes and boots this weekend.
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books? Argh. No. I started researching "natural childbirth" yesterday. So there's that...
How are you feeling? Well right now I am sick, so not great. Other then that I am good. I can see moves from the outside and she moves a lot!
Upcoming appointments? Not for another 2 weeks. We will have another u/s to see the rest of the heart. I will also have my glucose test.
Rants/raves? Tired of coughing because every time that I do I pee a little.
Gtky: nope
How are you feeling? Feeling hungry all the time!
Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? Baby is moving all over and I have been able to see some movement outside once in awhile.
Upcoming appointments? Just had our A/S today and everything looks great. Have to go back in a month b/c they couldn't see his/her spine, but no concerns. Oh and my husband has joined me on Team Green for now! He was going to find out, but decided not to!
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books? No preg journal. Reading a lot on VBAC birth. Just read The VBAC Companion.
How are you feeling? Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? I had an awesome two week puke free streak that ended this morning. I was feeling better by noon though. Baby is moving like crazy. I've seen a few kicks from the outside.
Upcoming appointments? Updates? Next appointment is in three weeks. Glucola and a Tdap booster. I will probably have another ultrasound around 34 weeks to check on growth. I'm measuring big right now but my doctor thinks it's just how my abdomen is situated due to two babies in two years.
Rants/Raves? Puking this morning sucked. And I had a flat tire yesterday. I've eaten plenty of cupcakes to drown my sorrows
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books?
Nope. I got the free journal a lot of people posted about months ago. I haven't touched it. I skimmed What to Expect when I was pregnant with DD.
Nora - 10.26.12
Henry - 5.9.14
How are you feeling? Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? Can't see kicks on the outside but can feel them inside and outside. I think this baby thinks that it is Michael Scott at Cafe Disco.
Upcoming appointments? Updates? I have an appointment Monday ... GTT and regular appt.
Rants/Raves? Other than DS stripping himself at nap time and peeing all over his bed ... yeah, no rants.
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books? I had a really nice journal for DS and I'm adding thoughts / information in a different color pen to compare. So ... kind of? But no books really this time. Most of my reading time is spent on TB.
Week? Fruit/Veggies? 25 w
How are you feeling? Aches and pains, but overall feeling good
Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? Very squirmy baby, which is nice because I have an AP so it took a while
Upcoming appointments? Updates?
F/u u/s was on Wednesday. They were able to get all the measurements this time. LO is measuring 14 days ahead. DD was the same way so in not stressed. I have a MW appointment Next Friday and will get my follow-up GTT orders.
Rants/Raves? Taking prenatal yoga through my hospital. Not impressed with the class overall (I will go to a local studio when these classes are over), but we did practice some massage techniques with small medicine balls and it was heavenly!!
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books?
I also ordered that free one and haven't done a single entry.
Not reading yet, but I'm planning to order my Blissborn home study in the next week or so.

How are you feeling: so much better after getting a massage on Thursday morning - it was heaven!!!!
Upcoming appointments: I had two this week. One with my specialist who I found out I see because I have placenta previa and one with my regular doctor. I'm surprised my regular doctor didn't fire me as a client. I haven't gained enough weight, I apparently wasn't supposed to be having sex because of the previa and he just about lost it when I told him I ride horses. Oops
Rants/raves: this week seems like it has gone by fast and I'm looking forward to a nice weekend even though I work Saturday morning.
GTKY: I am not keeping a pregnancy book - I barely manage to get my picture taken weekly
Week? Fruit/Veggies? 25 weeks - cauliflower!
How are you feeling? I feel like my m/s is starting to come back. Is that even possible? I was very queasy yesterday and actually got sick twice on Wednesday. Other than that, I'm feeling pretty good!
Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? Yes, she is a little wiggle worm lately. DH was finally able to feel a kick from the outside. I have an anterior placenta, so it's taken longer to really feel her kicks and punches. I actually saw movement from the outside last night too...it was pretty cool!
Upcoming appointments? Updates? I have the glucose test on 2/11...really hoping to pass! And then another growth scan at my 30w appt.
Rants/Raves? I'm just really looking forward to the weekend! DH and I are going to do more work on the nursery :-)
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books? I'm not keeping a journal, but am reading WTEWYE as well as a week-by-week book from MGH (the hospital where I'll deliver).
How are you feeling? Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? Overall, I'm feeling good. Always emotional, but we have a lot going on so I can't blame it completely on the pregnancy! Baby is moving and I saw his kicks from the outside for the first time the other night! I thought it would completely freak me out, but it's pretty neat.
Upcoming appointments? Updates? 24 week appointment on Monday...
Rants/Raves? Rants: having to sell our current house, buy a new house, find a new OB at 30+ weeks, etc. Rave: really happy my company is transferring me so DH and I can be in the same city again in 1.5 months and hopefully get some sort of normalcy before baby comes.
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books? I also got that free pregnancy journal that was circulating around... I don't think I've picked it up since week 17 (oops). I'm about 1/2 way through "The Happiest Baby on the Block".
How are you feeling? Is baby moving and can you see kicks on the outside? She's moving a lot more and I can feel it pretty strongly, but I have an anterior placenta so I can't see anything and can only occasionally feel it on the outside. My husband hasn't been able to catch it yet. Boo.
Upcoming appointments? Updates? I don't have any appointments for 4 weeks! Then I start going every other week - it's getting real!
Rants/Raves? Nope, but I'm happy to be feeling her move. It really helps my anxiety! Of course I'm still paranoid, haha.
GTKY: Are you keeping a pregnancy journal or reading any pregnancy/labor/parenting books? I'm terrible. I have 2 journals but haven't done anything with them. I'm the worst. Scrapbooky things just really aren't my style. I'm too disorganized. I have a couple pregnancy books that I read through every once in a while, but I feel like SO much of it is irrelevant. (Like the entire weeks focused on STDs I don't have, or other stuff like that.) I'll read a few weeks at a time and then catch up later. The internet is the best!
