1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 23 weeks, grapefruit...woah!

2. Symptoms, Today at this moment I am good. Had a rough weekend but feeling good now. Just starting to feel huge and uncomfortable by the end of the day. It is going to be a long 4 more months!

Rants - None, weird!

Cravings- breakfast food. I had two little sausage biscuits this morning and I ordered breakfast food for lunch.

Appointments? Went on Monday, I need to do better with my diet and exercise and was told to stay away from carbs :-? Not sure how to do that!

3. GTKY: Biggest hope for your October LO? That he knows happiness from within and doesn't rely on others to make him happy (as an older child-adult)

23 weeks, grapefruit. Wasn't it already a papaya? I feel like papayas are WAY bigger than grapefruits. This fruit system is messed up.

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments?
I'm generally miserable, but I don't know if that's a symptom of pregnancy or my DH. We had an argument the other night in which he bitched and moaned about his various ailments and I tried to offer helpful advice which he repeatedly shot down without consideration, then got pissed at me when I was frustrated by the discussion. Then when I proceeded to try and explain my ailments and general misery to him, he just walked away from me. So yeah, I've kind of given up on him for this week. I'm sure we'll move on and everything will be fine, but for now, I'm done pretending that everything is fine and I'd just as soon avoid him as play nice. Ooof, guess I needed to get that out! Sorry for the misplaced vent.
I have an appointment tomorrow afternoon.

3. GTKY: Biggest hope for your October LO?
I guess it's for my own sanity, but I hope he's as good a baby as DD was. In terms of true hopes for him and his life, I hope he values experiences and people over things.

1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 20 weeks, so banana

Half way there!

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? no real cravings at the moment. 20 week appointment is tomorrow.

3. GTKY: Biggest hope for your October LO? I have NO IDEA. I just want her to get here and be as healthy and fabulous as I know she will be.

AppleGrapeMSTK · June 2014

1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? 21w, pomegranate (butternut squash according to my ticker)

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? I have an appointment on Friday. I want to discuss how the EIF they found on DS2 changes my risk factors for DS. I also want to talk about my depression. I can't handle being out of bed most days. Also, we have a working lunch today, and I am so sticking excited that it's at a breakfast place. YUM. Andplusalso yesterday I ate 30 mini eclairs. You know, the entire case.

3. GTKY: Biggest hope for your October LO? I hope DS2 always feels loved and is best friends with DS1.

1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 23 weeks. Grapefruit.

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? Heartburn, Braxton hicks, lots of lower back pain, Symphysis pubic dysfunction is starting to really set in, I can tell I'm starting to waddle a little bit from it. I had it really bad with my other two so I've been expecting it.

no real cravings but I let myself splurge a little more this week on some not-so-healthy foods.

3. GTKY: Biggest hope for your October LO? I'm with @SusieBW. DS1 was a pretty good baby and DS2 was the easiest, happiest, best baby ever! I'm hoping this little girl is half as good as them, but I have a feeling she's going to be a monster.

But really, I hope she knows how loved she is and appreciates the little things in life.

1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 23 weeks, so Papaya. I agree @SusieBW, that seems way too big.

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? The maternity leggings made an appearance in the DreadGamer household today. Also, DH's manager asked yesterday when he would be off for the birth. DH said that he gave him a strange look and commented that it all depends on Schroeder and when she arrives. Apparently, the manager was interested in DH's plans for time off - not the exact days. That he could discuss with more certainty.

Next appointments/rant: tomorrow for both OB and MFM. I am going to ask the OB if I really need to keep going to the MFM as they haven't found a single thing "wrong" and keep removing potential watch items but they also keep adding more and more appointments without explaining why. As they have the lovely habit of making you wait at least an hour before you get called back, I would rather only go if I have to and save that vacation time for when Schroeder arrives. For example, tomorrow is the Fetal Echo Cardiogram and I have no idea why they are having me do it - A/S looked great, no markers of any type, and I don't match any of the common other reasons to have one done.

3. GTKY: Biggest hope for your October LO? That she is healthy, happy, and when she is older and looks back over her life, she has more good memories than regrets.

MrsL2B · June 2014

22 weeks, papaya!

I'm feeling pretty good today and in general. I have a fetal echo at the MFM tomorrow afternoon and an appt at the regular OB on Friday. I know we will discuss my diabetes management at both appointments. My MFM doesn't think it's out of control enough to be interesting enough for him to manage, while my OB practice thinks my swings are too unpredictable for them to deal with.

I hope my child grows up to be well-adjusted.

@DreadGamerWife Seriously! At 23 weeks LO is supposed to be ~11 inches. I don't know about you but the biggest grapefruits I've seen are like 6-7 inches max!

DreadGamerWife · June 2014

@mel689 I have decided that they seem to switch between the weight of a piece of produce and the size of it. Quite confusing.

PBJellyTime · June 2014

1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 21 Weeks!! Pomegranate...I agree with these fruits, a pom seems waay to small to me...I've never seen a 10" pom...just sayin..

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments?

I am still feeling pretty darn good! I got my projects done at work (what a nightmare) so skip the Rant, not worth re-hashing it...STILL no cravings really, and my A/S was last Friday. Baby Mo looked great, still Team Green!! 13 oz healthy & happy dancing baby in my ute. After deciding to stay Team Green I'm now REALLY excited to meet L.O.!

3. GTKY: Biggest hope for your October LO?

First and foremost I want them to be healthy. I want my child to grow up happy, but I also want him/her to be a responsible, respectful, and a grateful contributing member to society.

Good call. But that's just annoying.

I got an email from some site (Babycenter? Everyday Family?) this week that said that my baby is now the size of a spaghetti squash! I must buy enormous (both long and extra heavy) spaghetti squash and overlook all the normal-sized ones in the store.
