Re: FRIDAY April Fool's Ticker Change
How many weeks? 16 weeks
What size is baby? Avacado
Upcoming appointments? I had an appointment yesterday so I don't have another one until the end of the month
Rants/Raves/Questions? Everything is going pretty well these days. Feeling better, more energy, but super busy.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Still just taking this meal by meal. I never know what I am going to want or not want until it is in front of me.

What size is baby?: Avocado. Mmm guacamole.
Upcoming appointments?: April 5th!
Rants/Raves/Questions?: I am FINALLY able to sleep at night without peeing 5-6 times. I'm down to maybe 2, sometimes 1. HUZZAH!
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?: I'm still not huge on sweets, no massive or overwhelming cravings lately.
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator: Not that I can think of. I'm boring!

Rants/Raves/Questions?
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? afternoon headaches, always hungry
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator. I don't think I have ever had a aprils fools joke played on me and I never have to anyone either... so apparently I am boring!
BFP: 8/11/18 Due: 4/26/18
What size is baby? Baby is an avocado
Upcoming appointments? Not until the end of April. Had one last week though and got to hear a beautiful heartbeat.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I really want the exhaustion to go away. It went away for a couple days but now it's back. Poor DH is still waiting for that whole 'libido increase' that's supposed to happen in the second-tri.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Fried pickles please!!!
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator
What size is baby? Onion, video game controller, chipmunk, turnip, pomegranate, creme brulee, 5inches!
Upcoming appointments? A/S in three weeks
Rants/Raves/Questions? My liver hurts, literally. I was diagnosed with a slightly fatty liver some time ago but given the green light by all the docs to get pregnant. It acts up every now and then and hurts and I've been worrying about it nonstop. Good thing is that the doctors are not concerned at all. Anyone else have liver issues out there? I know the pain could be heartburn too as it affects the same nerve though.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? So itchy and so much pelvic pain! Aversions to chicken, turkey and spicy foods still and adding sweets to the list. Eating less fruits now because of heartburn.
GTKY: No pranks on me so far, fingers crossed!
What size is baby? A lemon! I sent DH a pic of Don Lemon after my appt this morning, he doesn't think I'm as funny as I do.
Upcoming appointments? Just had one this morning, next in 4 weeks. Heard the heartbeat today, so that was great!!
Rants/Raves/Questions? Nada. Almost fainted at work on Monday so that was fun, especially since I haven't announced yet. Not sure if it was over heating, dehydration, low BP, or low blood sugar. Or a combination of the above.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? not really any symptoms to speak of right now! I have my energy back and got some great workouts in this week. Pretty happy about that! Craving hot dogs like nobody's business, also grapes. I'm over oranges, but give me all the grapes.

What size is baby? Sweet Potato or croissant
Upcoming appointments? Not till the 25th
Rants/Raves/Questions? I had a few weeks friends approach me to pee on pregnancy tests or send a picture of one so they could "fool" their SO and it just made me mad. It may seem funny to them but getting and staying pregnant isn't easy never mind all the crap we have to put up with symptom wise!
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Ground turkey and coffee are still no no's and chocolate isn't overly appealing but I still eat it. Still loving sushi but the California roll I bought the other day had rock hard avacado in it, I could have cried!
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator? No tricks for me
What size is baby? Onion
Upcoming appointments? Not really upcoming. April 13th 1 hr glucose test, April 20th ultrasound.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Been feeling her little nudges a lot lately. So magical, I can't wait until she really starts giving me something to talk about! :-)
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Veggies, fruits, cereal and pasta, can't get enough! No real aversions anymore.

What size is baby? A sweet potato (NOM)
Upcoming appointments? Anatomy scan on Monday!
Rants/Raves/Questions? I signed us up for a two month Bradley class starting in June! Anyone else signed up for one or has taken it before?
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Round Ligament Pain shot a lightening bolt through my pelvis when I stretched as I woke up this morning. Other than that I'm starving in the morning even if I ate a good dinner.
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator? None traumatizing enough to remember. I'm not a big April Fool's enthusiast.
What size is baby? Avocado

Rants/Raves/Questions? I told my work yesterday and my boss announced at our biggest meeting - it was really fun to have everyone cheer and see their surprised faces!

Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
Last night I was craving peach lemonade SO BAD. I've never had it before but I sent my poor fiance out to buy peaches in the middle of the night.
*It was delicious!
Still feeling more bloated than growing an actual bump.

Oh gosh, none so far but the day isnt over yet!!!
What size is baby? sweet potato
Upcoming appointments? AS on 4/12, I went in for a bp check on Wednesday and will go in again next week
Rants/Raves/Questions? I can't get comfortable sleeping:( I have a knee wedge pillow and a pregnancy pillow, and I end up throwing the pregnancy pillow off the bed in the night. Maybe its too early for it. I am a back or stomach sleeper, the side thing is going to be rough.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I had a rough week - on Wednesday I woke up with extremely sore upper back, neck and shoulders. After lunch time, the pain was starting to radiate down my arms. I took my bp at the work gym, and it was 133/78, and I immediately started panicking that I was having a heart attack. Thankfully, my OB let me come in immediately, and my BP was normal there. Apparently you shouldn't take right after lunch? I had never heard this.
I'll go back next week for another check, but unfortunately there wasn't anything they could do for the soreness, she said it was probably tension. Ugh. I used the Thermacare wraps all night, but it still hurt SO bad. Woke up a bit better yesterday and I went and got a massage yesterday afternoon. I'm contemplating seeing a chiropractor, but for now just massages.
? Nope, I am not creative!!

What size is baby? Avocado

Rants/Raves/Questions?
I actually wish I felt hungrier. My appetite has been so off, most days I feel like I can skip lunch. I want to enjoy food! And ironically the lack of appetite is not preventing me from gaining weight.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
Feeling pretty good
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator
I used this website that allows you to send a text from a random number and pranked a couple friends and my husband. Nothing cruel, just something random and funny enough to leave them a little confused. We all got a laugh out of it.
What size is baby? Onion
Upcoming appointments? 4/11 18w appt then 4/22 anatomy scan
Rants/Raves/Questions? None really, just ranting that my DH got laid off this week. I won't go into much detail just sucks.

Upcoming appointments? Monday is the next round of poking, prodding and blood sucking, but I get to make my 20 week appointment while I'm there so I'm so excited!
Rants/Raves/Questions? I would do terrible things to sleep all the way through the night! I miss solid, uninterrupted sleep- and I know it's not going to happen again, probably ever. *sigh*
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I have to have all the spicy things! I was a bad, bad girl and went to Wendy's for the jalapeño fresca spicy chicken sandwich- OMG!!!
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator
I have been on a serious pickle binge myself lol! It started with fried ones, but at this point I eat them with everything lol!

GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator
What size is baby? Lemon
Upcoming appointments? Monday, ultrasound. I will be sad when these bi-weekly scans are done.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Not a rant or rave particularly, but we just got home from our Easter dinner where we were finally announcing (ie. dressed DD in a 'Big Sister' T-shirt) and I have been stressing all week about. My parents, sister, and BIL all knew, but my grandmother (a nasty old bird) and my aunt and uncle were out of the loop. I had built myself up for...something. But it totally fizzled. No congratulations, no real acknowledgement beyond "Oh, that's nice, when?" I'm rather off-put by the whole thing.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I want fruit, but only if it's cold. Especially plums and nectarines! Mmmm
GTKY: Any April Fool's pranks happen to you? Or were you the instigator? A couple of years ago my boss gave me a sucker. Not uncommon, he would usually begin the assigning of unpleasant tasks with treats (wise man). I went to eat it, and inside the candy was a scorpion. A real, once alive scorpion. I screamed and threw it at him as he ran away giggling. He still talks about it.
