Congrats on another week ladies!
I turn 35 weeks today so I think it's time to start looking for a volunteer to take over this check in starting soon. If you would like to volunteer please let me know here in this thread. I can definitely do another week but after that maybe it would make sense for someone else to. I have really enjoyed running the check in and getting to know you ladies. I have especially loved seeing all the new BFP's over the course of these past several months.
How far along are you? Fruit if you know.
How are you feeling?
Any recent or upcoming appointments or milestones?

QOTW: What states and countries have you traveled to?
Re: ***Sunday Ticker Change Check In***
How far along are you? Fruit if you know. 14 weeks, 2nd tri today AHHH!!! Baby is size of a lemon!
How are you feeling? Still not the best but I'm hopeful its going to taper off a little ....I don't think the crazy work hours have been helping anyways and its getting less busy now so that's good.
Any recent or upcoming appointments or milestones? Had my 2nd OB appt. last week, all looks good so far! Baby's hb was 160 and my bp seems to still be in normal range although a little elevated from last appointment.
Thoughts/vents: Not much. I just cant believe I'm in 2nd trimester already. Yeesh....makes me more and more nervous because this is the trimester everything went to hell in a handbasket with Jack so I'm hopeful to make it well into 3rd tri without any hiccups.
QOTW: What states and countries have you traveled to? Countries.... England, Scotland, France, Mexico, also not countries but islands weve been to Grand Cayman, Jamaica, and Bahamas. States.... WI, MI, IN (you don't live in IL and not go there at least once, lol) , IA, TN, KY, NY (Buffalo not NY city), PA, NC, SC, GA, FL, AL, LA, TX, CO, NM, NV, WY, and CA. I have a shot glass collection from all the places I've been I've been trying to knock out all the states, getting closer but a ways to go still!!

35 weeks and he's the size of a coconut.
How are you feeling?
Feeling pretty good just tired a lot and lately my acid reflux has been pretty bad. Still hungry all the time which makes me a bit nervous for my next weigh in
Any recent or upcoming appointments or milestones?
I had a regular bi-weekly appointment this past week. It went well but my NP suspects he move back to a sideways position. We will get another look next week via ultrasound and see if my stubborn boy has moved.
Thoughts/vents:
We installed our car seat yesterday and this morning driving with the seat in the back was really strange. I can't believe that we just might have a baby in there soon. I still wake up wanting to pinch myself that I made it this far along because sometimes it is so hard to believe. A year ago I would never have imagined that I would be here.
QOTW: What states and countries have you traveled to?
States:
All of New England, New York, PA, DC, North and South Carolina, Virginia, Illinois, Missouri, Florida, North and South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, California, Nevada, Wyoming, Utah, Washington State, and New Jersey.
I've been to places like Texas and Ohio only in their airports so I'm not counting those.
Places other than US:
Jamaica, Costa Rica, Australia, Israel, Italy, England, France, Monaco, Spain, Greece, St. Lucia, St. Marten, St. Thomas, Puerto Rico and Mexico.
How are you feeling?
Okay. Nervous because we see the doctor tuesday and plan to call our grandparents and tell (if all is good at the doctor) and then reveal to fb..

@kflynn81 Congrats on second trimester!
@backstreetpixie Congrats on second trimester as well! Did you end up telling via Facebook yesterday?
@morethansparrows08 Totally feel your pain on the lack of sleep. I found a Snoogle helps a little but it is still hard to get comfortable and then I wake up really hot.
@linden25 Boo to your receptionist. How rude! I have had other people make similar comments though not quite as nasty as her. If they comment just on my belly I am OK but please don't make comments about my "whole" body looking large! Geez people!
