1. How many weeks along are you?
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)?
3. How are you feeling lately?
4. QOTW: this QOTW is sports-related in honor of the World Cup! What is your favorite sports team? Do you, DH or DD/DS play any sports?
Re: **2IF Grad Check In**
2. Another ultrasound this Wednesday to get some more precise measurements. My anterior placenta and her refusal to flip made for a difficult time for the tech.
3. I feel great! A tire more easily and have some killer heartburn. But the big kicks and punches I've been getting are making it all okay.
4. We don't play sports. We have been enjoying watching the World Cup, two local guys are on the team. However we much prefer football, we are huge Kansas City Chiefs fans.
1. I am 22.5 weeks
2. Nope. I have an appointment later this week but it will be just the typical weight, blood pressure, doppler, etc check
3. Feeling good. My dreams have gotten weird though. I keep stressing out about stuff in my dreams and waking up from them feeling anxious because of not being able to remedy, juggle, or remember things in my dream. Doesn't make for the most rejuvinating sleep.
4. Honestly I have teams that I consider to be mine but I'm not devoted enough to even follow whether they win or lose. I follow my alma mater football and basketball somewhat (they've sucked in recent years anyway). DH is a big Chicago Bears fan, so I always hope for them to win because I know that it makes the hubby happy.
October 2011 - DS (7)
July 2014 - Stillborn DD (24 weeks)
August 2015 - DD (3)
April 2018 - 5 week loss
1. How many weeks along are you? 14w2d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? No appointment until July 10th. We did get our NT scan and blood results back. Measurements were 1.5 and the doctor seems to think everything is ok.
3. How are you feeling lately? Still tired, and like @CheesyPeas lots of vivid dreams. I dreamt I slashed up Michael Meyers but he came back and came after me again, then the rest of the night was sexual dreams with Joaquin Phoenix. sigh
4. QOTW: this QOTW is sports-related in honor of the World Cup! What is your favorite sports team? Do you, DH or DD/DS play any sports? Favorite sports team is Denver Broncos. I play basetball, and DH plays baseball/softball. I couldn't get DS involved it wasn't his thing.
2. No appts until July, but I will have my glucose test at that next one.
3. Feeling good, still some aches and pains at night and luckily DH hasn't gotten tired of giving me massages before we go to bed!
4. Favorite sports team: New Orleans Saints - football is a big deal in our house! We don't play sports - Jeffrey is almost 2 and is too young for anything yet but he loves to play with basketballs!
2. OB appt tomorrow. Just a quick check. MFM next week. I was wrong I failed the glucose test, so now I am monitored by them also.
3. Feeling decent. Tired at times, but incredibly irritated at work. Can't wait for that to be over.
4. I don't have a favorite sports team. DH loves the Green Bay Packers. I have been retired from sports for quite some time. DD Is too little for sports, but hope she will like something.
2. Nothing this week. I've got an appt Tuesday & then it's every week after that. The thought of that really makes the end seem near!
3. I feel good, but starting to get tired early
4. NY Giants - we have season tickets so we go to most games. MH becomes football obsessed come August. He plays fantasy football, which drives me a little crazy b/c it's like a full time job! In terms of playing sports, MH plays golf & unless you count teaching group exercise classes a sport, I don't play any. DD is too little, but I hope she'll play something.
@freakfast - in my first & second tri I had dreams featuring random celebrities all of the time. I kept waking up & cracking up. One featured Whitney Houston in a physical fight w/ my sister. That bitch was scrappy!
