Re: Tuesday ticker change!
Rants/raves/symptoms? Started with Braxton Hicks a few days ago. On our baby moon in London, felt much more tired and achey than I normally do, which was definitely related to the increased activity level. Yesterday I worked 12 hours and I feel back to normal today.
Anything baby-related to report? Bought baby so many awesome things on our trip to London. A piece of art for the nursery, a onesie, so many books!
ETA: My coworkers have posted the sign up sheet for my baby shower and I am super excited! Of course I love getting together with them ANYTIME outside of work, but this is making the whole thing seem much more real. Plus, my belly is definitely more noticeable to random people, and baby has been kicking stronger this week.
GTKY: What is your favorite pregnancy meal/snack? (stolen from last Thurs ticker change) It depends on the day...I definitely go through phases. Right now I can't wait to have some macaroni & cheese. Cheese, Sour patch kids, ice-cream and caesar salad have definitely been high on my cravings list too.
Rants/raves/symptoms? I had Braxton Hicks yesterday - they started as walking to my car after work and lasted all night. I'm guessing I wasn't drinking enough water yesterday, so I'm chugging it like crazy today!
Anything baby-related to report? My mom and dad bought our crib mattress for us! I set up a couple registries to get the completion discounts/make a list of things I still needed to buy, and my mom bought it off of there!
GTKY: What is your favorite pregnancy meal/snack? (stolen from last Thurs ticker change) Probably pregnant or not - ice cream all the way. But, I've lately really been craving sour gummy candy like sour straws, etc.
23, grapefruit

Shockingly, I've been mostly fine.

I gave my list of top names to DH, but I don't think he's even looked at them yet. I'm not really in a rush to decide, though.

Oh god, too many to choose. Nutella, gummy candy, french fries, chips & dip, Mexican food... nothing healthy.

Still dealing with RLP but it seems to be getting better as I pop out more.

My husband and I might have settled on a first name! Now to decide a middle name.
GTKY: What is your favorite pregnancy meal/snack? (stolen from last Thurs ticker change)
Cupcakes. I want them everyday!

OB appointment tomorrow. Crib has been ordered and should be here any day now! Buying the rocker this week and then starting our nursery setup next week while I'm on spring break! I know it won't be completely done until we get things from our showers, but I'm just so excited to have the room start to look like its for the baby!
GTKY: What is your favorite pregnancy meal/snack? (stolen from last Thurs ticker change)
Sweets like cookies, cupcakes, candy and ice cream and carbs like cereal, cornbread, bagels...all stuff I don't normally eat! I try to indulge in one of these things in a small serving each day...but today, I had cornbread for breakfast and a slice of red velvet cake just now for a coworkers birthday...ugh
Rants/raves/symptoms? Not feeling too bad but I am starting to feel "big" now. Started getting a little bit of swelling, discomfort when sleeping and feeling really full after eating.
Anything baby-related to report? Nothing this week.
GTKY: What is your favorite pregnancy meal/snack? (stolen from last Thurs ticker change) It's mostly been raw vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers) and apples but the last couple weeks I've developed a bit of a sweet tooth and have craved cake and ice cream.
Rants/raves/symptoms? One week until my A/S! Finally!
My feet have been swelling, which is annoying. Back and hips hurt pretty regularly. But I've started feeling little thumps and kicks wayyyy more often, and I'm getting pretty good at discerning which is baby and which is gas!
Anything baby-related to report? Been getting some great deals on nursery stuff from online yard sales. So fun to be shopping for Little One!
GTKY: What is your favorite pregnancy meal/snack? (stolen from last Thurs ticker change) Cheeseburgers all the way. Or mint chocolate chip ice cream. And anything lemon or lime flavored. Mmm...
Rants/raves/symptoms? Had to take my belly ring out this week. My innie became an outty and it looked like it was putting strain on it. Had it for 9 years kinda sad about it
Anything baby-related to report? Nope. Appointment next week
GTKY: What is your favorite pregnancy meal/snack? (stolen from last Thurs ticker change) chocolate ice cream bars
22. Baby is the size of a Nalgene bottle, which I love because I carry 2 around with me everywhere!
Rants/raves/symptoms?
Giant boobs (for me). But I'm not complaining

We have a routine appointment tomorrow and leave for our weekend beach getaway immediately after! We aren't calling it a babymoon, but I suppose we could.

Cheeseburgers (like really good ones from fancy burger joints), salt and vinegar chips, French fries with malt vinegar on them, and pickles! This week specifically, I had to have a box yellow cake with canned chocolate frosting. I ate it straight from the 9x13 pan.
