GTKY: Favorite holiday movie?
Re: Monday Ticker Change!
Symptoms: Braxton Hicks randomly
Rants/Raves/Stories: We found out last week baby #2 is another girl and we cannot be more excited!
Upcoming Appointments: 20 week appointment next week sometime
Questions? Does anyone else have a hard time not buying new baby things even is older sibling is the same sex?!
GTKY: Favorite holiday movie? Elf!!
Symptoms: Sore throat/cold symptoms, not sure if related to pregnancy or not
Rants/Raves/Stories: I'm starting to feel like we have a lot to do--nursery prep, buying stuff, registering, it's starting to go fast!
Upcoming Appointments: 16 week appointment on Wednesday!
Questions? What should we buy first? Seriously, so many things to buy and researching takes so much time!
GTKY: Favorite holiday movie? Love Elf and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
Symptoms: nausea is finally diminishing, but now I have a sore throat and fever. Also still horribly constipated, but the increased sex drive has definitely kicked in.
Rants/raves/stories: dd3 wants to listen for the baby every single day, and is less than thrilled that she can't hear it yet. Sorry kid, but I have a fetoscope, not a doppler, and I've only maybe heard it once. The baby may be bigger now, but it still has a teeny tiny heart in there.
Upcoming appointments: Oh crap, is that tomorrow or Wednesday? I have to go check. Ugh. We'll schedule my a/s, and unless there's a problem, I probably won't go back after that until the end of pregnancy testing-gbs and whatnot.
Questions: none
GTKY: fave holiday movie? I totally can't answer this one. I adore holiday movies. The season is not complete if I don't watch the classics: It's A Wonderful Life, Charlie Brown, Miracle on 34th Street (old and new versions, thanks), the Grinch. I also must watch Elf, and the Muppets Christmas Carol. I reread the original every year as well. And don't forget the claymation movies! Santa Claus Is Coming to Town, and Rudolph, and Frosty...
@UnbreakableKimmySchmidt Buy a carseat first. It's the only thing you absolutely have to have purchased before the baby comes, assuming you give birth in a hospital like most people. They won't let you leave without one, but you can totally steal diapers and even a going home outfit and blankets from them, assuming someone doesn't bring you a cute outfit and a blanket while you're there. Grandparents, especially, like to do that.
Symptoms: sinus congestion (my ears clog when I ride the elevator every morning at work, super annoying!) Dry lips, general soreness but that might be from traveling last weekend.
Rants/Raves: I just started to show a couple of weeks ago, and find it crazy how strangers feel it's totally acceptable to come up and rub the little bump. I was at a wedding last weekend and got unexpectedly groped in the bathroom by two strangers. It doesn't bother me, exactly, it's just weird!
I am also getting tired of people asking me how I'm feeling. I'm pregnant, not sick! I sat down at one point during the reception because my feet hurt, and at least 5 people asked me if I was okay and if I needed water. Trust me, I'm hydrated enough since that's all I can drink at weddings!
Upcoming appointments: anatomy scan next weds!
GTKY: I love Elf, I gotta also throw in there the original Home Alone, classic!
Symptoms: Braxton Hicks when I lay down.
Rants/Raves/Stories: We found out we are having a baby girl on Friday! Still trying to get used to the idea even though I was convinced she was going to be a girl. I don't know. I'm excited, it'll just take some getting used to I guess.
Upcoming Appointments: A/S next Friday!
GTKY: Christmas Vacation, Christmas with the Kranks, Grinch.
