Re: 12/3 Thursday Ticker Change
Rants: I'm not so excited that I seem to be in the third of women whose asthma worsens s little in pregnancy. Last time I lucked out and it got better. I have nesting energy, but I feel like by the time I get home from work; get dinner on, eaten, and cleaned up; play with DS and get DS to bed I have very little energy to actually do the cleaning/organizing I had planned. Plus, it's usually around 8:30 by that point. I'm really looking forward to some days of so I can use naptime to get things done-- and of course then I'll get to play with DS the rest of the day : ).
Upcoming appointments: December 17th for the anatomy scan! I'm so excited to see LO again. Hopefully he/she is developing well and is healthy still. I also hope we can see which sex the baby.
Questions for the Group: Since DH is starting a new job, he probably won't be able to come to the anatomy scan, which is understandable, but frustrating. He still wants me to find out the sex of the baby so that the sonographer can point everything out to me, just like with other important aspect of health. I'm trying to decide how to tell him that evening. I want to make it special since I'd rather find out together, but I also know that he's not generally into huge, cheesy gestures. I thought about picking up either a Daddy's girl/Daddy's boy sort of onesie -- or something little brother/little sister-- after I find out since my appointment is first thing in the morning. I don't know if I'll have time to do a reveal cake unless I bake it myself. Any ideas?
GTKY: Have you started on the nursery yet?
Rants: my pooping schedule is terrible
Raves: I think I'm starting to get a bump
Appointment December 10, then we schedule the anatomy scan!!!
Questions: my sister and I just walked through babies r us last night and I was surprised how short the cribs seemed. I'm 5'11' and my husband is 6'. Does anyone know if they make cribs that are taller so we won't have to bend over so much?
GTKY: we haven't really started the nursery yet. My husband is building a wall in the basement so I can move my craft room and we will make the craft room the baby room and turn the guest bedroom into an office with a bed. Then we have to convince the dogs that staying in the basement is going to be fun because their cages are also getting kicked out of the craft room
Rants/Raves: Daily nosebleeds are getting so old! And it doesn't help that I've had a bad cold for the last week and a half and can't stop coughing a nasty wet productive cough!
Upcoming appointments: Today! In the waiting room.
Questions for the Group:
GTKY: Have you started on the nursery yet? No. My SIL is living with us, in the room that will be the nursery. We ordered a crib on Cyber Monday and I guess it's going in the storage building out back until she moves out. DH and I talked about it last night abs decided to tell her Feb 1 is her eviction date. We still have to paint in there too!

Rants/Raves: Skin is breaking out so bad, I have zits everywhere reminds me of junior high. I am loving that my bump is becoming more bump like and not just chunk
Upcoming appointments: Check in with my midwife in two weeks
GTKY: Have you started on the nursery yet? no, we still need to clean out the spare room, its full of junk. that is a holiday break project for me and DH. I have started a pinterest board
Rants/Raves: Morning sickness seems to be lessening but not totally gone away. I'm still feeling really anxious about the pregnancy.
Upcoming appointments: I had an appointment today. They couldn't find the heartbeat with the doppler. Very stressful. Luckily, they were able to squeeze us in for an ultrasound and everything was fine with the baby. They couldn't see the sex but I was just so relieve to hear the heartbeat.
Questions for the Group: Has anyone else been recommended to take low dose aspirin?
GTKY: Have you started on the nursery yet? Not at all.
Rants/Raves: my favorite part of pregnancy has got to be the laughter. Once I start laughing I can't stop and out of all the ways to feel, I think that's a pretty fun one!
Upcoming appointments: we have the anatomy scan this Monday! Then I have my monthly appt the next day.
Questions for the Group:
GTKY: Have you started on the nursery yet? No, we made an offer on a house tonight so we won't be doing anything for awhile. I've got a Pinterest board full of ideas for when that time comes though!
ETA: If not you could always do what was recommended to me: When he gets home ya'll have a hot dog or taco party waiting for him
Been married since 2009.
Unicornuate Uterus (yes I menstruate glitter)
Several MCs
DD born 2013 (our miracle "you can't have babies" baby!)
Rants/Raves: Annual leave in 7 working days! Jay. BUT won't be having DH with me as he is working so Boo.
Upcoming appointments: 17 December also @kbrands7 and also hopefully finding out the sex. Husband also started a new job (how strangely similar) but our appointment is only late afternoon so we are able to go together.
I like @doozer1345 's idea - that way you find out together. But your idea is also sweet.
GTKY: nope but soon. Need to paint while I'm still somewhat small. Also full of junk. Luckily annual leave is starting soon.
