Re: Monday Ticker Change

  • How far along are you? Fruit/toy/animal size? 24 weeks! 

    What's going on this week with you and your LO? Not much.. We started Bradley classes yesterday and also got word that everything looks great after our follow-up US. Baby's been moving around SO much, like to the point where I wake up in the middle of the night. Other than that, next appt isn't till the 30th. 

    Rants/raves/questions? Been fortunate to have a very easy pregnancy so far but yesterday I got heartburn so bad, it was horrible. I've never had heartburn, pregnant or not.

    How have you been feeling lately? Been feeling good :) besides the heartburn.

    We met at a bar. I was with my friend and he walked in with people and I told my friend "I'm gonna make out with that guy." And she laughed. And that is how the night ended - we made out. Been together since, and that was a little over 5 years ago.

    What's going on this week with you and your LO? We have an apt. on Wednesday with a follow up ultra sound because at the A/S our little man wasn't cooperating! The tech and midwives want to get a good look at his face to check for a cleft lip/palate. 

    Rants/raves/questions? I love feeling him move. It makes me smile pretty much every time so I walk around smiling like an idiot and looking like I'm high or something. When I am working and bored, I sit and watch my belly bounce around and before I know it, an hour has passed by. Makes the day go by quicker though! 

    How have you been feeling lately? Pretty good other than a few aches and pains. My hips and lower back have been kind of tight, but I think that's from working on my house renovation. I just need to stretch and I usually feel better the next day. Oh and I am hungry all the time. Can't get enough food! 

    GTKY, borrowed from a couple other ticker changes: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together? We met in high school when we were 16. Our first date was the high school homecoming dance and we have been best friends ever since. We got married on our 10 year anniversary so we celebrate each anniversary as the years we have been married and the years we have been together (1/11, 2/12 and this next year will be 3/13).

    What's going on this week with you and your LO? Monthly OB appointment tomorrow

    Rants/raves/questions? I'm pretty bummed my cold ended and then allergies decided to show up for the spring. I can't stop sneezing and my eyes are so itchy!

    How have you been feeling lately? Not bad, my heartburn is finally not as frequent anymore so it's nice to have a break from that. My feet are starting to swell up every so often now, but it's nothing a little foot massage from DH can't fix :) I am loving being able to feel baby girl move now. She's so strong! It's a bit obnoxious when she wakes me up in the middle of the night with a huge kick or a big stretch, but it's still pretty incredible-her moving makes everything seem so much more "real" I guess. 

    GTKY, borrowed from a couple other ticker changes: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together? We met in high school when we were 15 but didn't start dating until we were 18, so I've known him for 8 years but only as my SO for 5. We are coming up on our one year anniversary in April. It feels like we've been married forever, but at the same time it seems like it was just yesterday!
  • I am 23 weeks along and baby girl is the size of a grapefruit. 

    I have a prenatal massage today. Then DH and I are installing white molding in all of our upstairs. We did the downstairs 2 months ago. I can't wait until this project is done so we can decorate the nursery! 

    Rants/raves/questions? I am hungry. Trying to eat healthy but not having enough energy for DD, the house and cooking!  

    How have you been feeling lately?  Good! DD is sleeping better which means I am sleeping more. 

    DH and I met when we lived in the same dorm in college. We dated for 4 years and have been married 7 1/2 years. 
  • I am 22 weeks. Papaya? Whatever...the fruit quits having meaning past about 12 weeks.

    Not much to talk about this week. I totally love feeling him move though. He's so active compared to my first son. I'm in love already.

    Rants/Raves/Questions: Not really! I mean, I'm sick of gaining weight, and I'm sick of the major chin acne that this kid is giving me, but it's so worth it.

    How have you been feeling lately? Good enough that I don't need to complain.

    My husband and I met when I was in college. I was just 18, and he was about 5 weeks away from his 24th birthday. He wasn't even in college anymore. We met at a party, and had a rather un-romantic first couple of weeks together, tee-hee. I don't think either of us had long term in mind. But we are now 9 years strong, and married for 5 years two days before this LO's due date. It sounds very irresponsible, and my DH sounds like a real douche for hooking up with a barely 18 year old, but what can I say, sometimes things just work out!

    What's going on this week with you and your LO? Starting to really feel some movement this week. Was feeling flutters before but this is full-fledge movement, I just know it!

    Rants/raves/questions? Raving because a few people have told me that I'm only growing in my belly. Sorry for those that are feeling growth everywhere - it was one of my biggest fears. I've struggled with weight my whole life so I was really worried that I would just become a blimp but so far it seems to be going the way I was hoping!

    How have you been feeling lately? In general or baby-related? :) In general overwhelmed and stressed. Baby-related feeling pretty good. Still fighting back pain and ankles seem to be swelling a little and I'm eating all the time but after our last appointment all I want is this baby to grow!

    GTKY, borrowed from a couple other ticker changes: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together? We met when my Dad bought parts from his Dad for our pulling truck - I was 17 & he was 21. We were both along for the ride when the parts exchange happened. He added me on Facebook (little cheesy, we know!), we started talking, went on a couple of dates, survived 4 years of a long-distance relationship and the rest is history! We've been together for 8 years next month and married for 3 1/2 years.
