Re: Ticker Change Wednesday
How many weeks today? 10 weeks
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? Prune
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? I'm an emotional mess after my appointment this morning. They thought something was wrong so I had to have another ultrasound, but everything looks perfect! Got to see the baby wave it's hand at us! Now, I'm emotional because of seeing my baby, relief that nothing is wrong.
Questions? Nothing today.
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? We haven't decided yet. DH keeps saying we have plenty of time to decide when I bring up talking about names.
How many weeks today?
10
How big is baby (fruit size or other)?
A cotton ball.
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms?
I have my OB appointment in 10 minutes!
Questions?
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they?
Not 100%. I love Ada for a girl. My top picks for a boy Miles or Henry. I think once I know gender I'll be able to focus on it more.
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? A lime (which seems huge to me, ha!)
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? Not feeling so tired which is great, but my lower back is killing me.
Questions? None really, I'm just anxious to get to my next appointment (NT Scan) in a week and a half.
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? Yes, but I'd rather not share.
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? Raspberry
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? My worst symptom throughout this whole time has been exhaustion. I am tired all the time. I try to take naps when I can but I feel like I could sleep for days!
Questions? Nope
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? We have come up with a few but none that are really "wowing" me. It isn't easy choosing a name for someone else when they will have to be the one to live with it forever lol.
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? A lime.
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? Just tired. Being attempting to clean the house and it's exhausting.
Questions?
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? My DH and I are having trouble with this. We cannot agree on anything besides one name.
How big is the baby? Plum sized
Rants/raves/symptoms? Most symptoms have subsided thank god. Still a tad emotional!
Questions?
GTYK: have you decided on names for a boy or a girl yet? No it's so hard, might concentrate on it a little more now that we've hit the 12 week mark:)
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? Olive?
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? I feel like crap. Accidentally took my prenatal too long after eating and ended up puking for 5 hours yesterday morning and still feel like I should be in bed today. Also annoyed that being sick has betrayed me so more people know that I would like at this point.
Questions?
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? Nope. We hate the name game. It took us forever with DD and I'm still attached to all the names my DH vetoed last time!
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? A lime or a poker chip!
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? Feeling pretty good! ! Still too scared to workout though
Questions?
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? We have a boy first name picked out but no middle name and no girls name!
How many weeks today? 9
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? Green olive!
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? Work is annoyingly busy, is it time to go yet?!
Questions? Are there any moms out there who were strep B positive the first time around, were you strep B positive with your second as well?
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? Not yet, DH and I have far different opinions.
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? App says Strawberry
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? Boobs are still sore, bloating and some bouts of nausea. Really wish I could stop taking my progesterone supplements, they're gross.
Questions?
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? For a girl, Jocelyn but nothing for a boy yet.
How big is baby (fruit size or other)? A pecan or a jack
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? My boobs are still sore, but not nearly as bad as they have been. Still happy my nausea is not nearly as bad as it was with my first. I only get nauseous in the morning and have to fight to get something on my stomach and get nauseous when I haven't eaten. I'm beginning to understand how some people actually enjoy pregnancy. I didn't understand that sentiment at all my first time around! I started progesterone suppositories last week because my progesterone has been steadily dropping (down to 10.5). Got a call from the nurse today letting me know that as of Monday morning when they drew labs, it has almost tripled! SO HAPPY! I feel like I can actually enjoy this pregnancy now!
ETA - Forgot about my huge rant. After explaining to my SIL my progesterone issues, she decided to announce my pregnancy on her facebook page 4 days later. We haven't gotten along in years and only speak now because we just so happened to register our daughters for the same dance class. She's blocked on my facebook so I found out when someone sent it to me an hour later. Obviously I haven't told many people given my hormone issues and certainly have not announced on social media.... UGH. Why do people steal other people's moments???

GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they?
I'm still lost for a boy. 4 years ago when we had my daughter, we had Jackson Grey picked out, but Jackson has gotten so popular. I really want Ella for a girl (my other is Ava Kate) but my husband says no

How big is baby (fruit size or other)? Lime
Rants/ Raves/ Symptoms? I've been battling a severe sinus infection for a week now and the only thing my OB cleared me to take is Sudafed... which has never worked for me. It seems it's FINALLY going away on it's own, but then today the infection pushed into my ears. And work is being super weird about me asking for some time off.
Questions? Anyone else already know what they are having? We just got the results of our genetic testing and are beyond ecstatic with the gender
GTYK: Have you already decided on names for a boy or girl? If so what are they? Yes. Willa Louise for a girl (I majored in Literature and Willa Cather is one of my favorite authors. Louise is my grandmother's name.) Rhys Ivans for a boy (hubby is of Welsh/Irish descent and we wanted to honor that with a traditionally spelled name that wasn't too weird - FYI it's pronounced like "Reece". Ivans is hubby's favorite grandpa's name.)
