Re: Sunday Ticker Change 4/17

  • What week/fruit are you? 12 weeks (finally!!!!) Plum, Chicken Nugget

    How are you feeling? I'm still very tired, and was more nauseous this past week than previous weeks (I think). I'm really hoping my symptoms ease up soon.  

    Rants/Raves/Questions? We listen to the babies heartbeat every couple days with the at home doppler. It has really eased our anxiety and I am so grateful I can at least hear the heartbeat in between doc appointments. This past week, we finally felt safe enough to start buying a few items!! We started buying cloth diapers (which we will continue to purchase every month now), and yesterday my husband bought this awesome baby monitor. I think since now that we are almost (or in) the second trimester, we have a more calm feeling about this pregnancy. We are also going to officially announce next weekend as long as our doc appointment next Friday goes great!! :)

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? Definitely carbs. I need to change that. Crackers, bread, bagels, pastas, rice, and baked potatoes. At least I add vegetables to the pasta and rice when I cook that for dinner, but I definitely need to change this. Recently, it's been the mentality of eat whatever won't make me throw up. I can't wait until the nausea eases up!!

    What week/fruit are you? 16 weeks, not sure what fruit because I can't find it in this app but thanks to Ovia, dill pickle
    How are you feeling? I'm feeling great now that MS is pretty much gone....still tired, rlp, sensitive to smells, headaches, mood swings? (I'm easily amused, pissed off, or cry), forgetful
    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Does anyone else know what the periodic staticky thuds are when using a Doppler (when holding it still)? I just started hearing it the last few weeks and I'm wondering if that's kicks... 
    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? Bagels and cream cheese!

    I am having verbal difficulty lately lol
  • What week/fruit are you? 12 weeks - plum, clementine

    How are you feeling? Better! Nausea is almost gone and I'm starting to feel like myself again. I've been having some sciatic nerve pain which is annoying but I'm trying to take it easy.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? NT scan this week. Excited to see baby again!

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? All the carbs! I have pretty much existed on carbs and cheese for the past few weeks. Now that I'm feeling better I know I should incorporate more veggies into my diet...but grilled cheese tastes so good :(

  • @suzy311 last night I had a dream about grilled cheese with tomato soup haha
  • What week/fruit are you? 16 weeks, avocado

    How are you feeling? Still nauseous. On the bright side, I finally didn't have to straight cath myself last night to empty my bladder, but now I'm having some intense round ligament pain.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Y'all have heard me rant about the nausea thing for multiple weeks now, so I won't bother.

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? French fries and anything else I can keep down.

    What week/fruit are you? 12 weeks, plum

    How are you feeling? Nausea is getting better, but the headaches have started, and some days those are just as bad. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? My pants no longer fit, and there is a pretty visible bump there that I will be trying to hide all week at work. We don't have the NT scan until next week, and are waiting until then to tell everyone. On the bright side I have been feeling better and have actually been eating some healthy food for the past week!

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? Ritz crackers (the only thing I can stomach first thing in the morning), and strawberry popsicles. 
  • What week/fruit are you? 16 weeks, dill pickle - bag of skittles

    How are you feeling? great! I was able to cook two meals last week and partake in some cleaning around the house. FI can tell a difference 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? we went and registered on Friday. Holy overwhelmness!!!! Yah that will take a few trips. 

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? pizza. Yum
  • What week/fruit are you? 13 weeks, lemon

    How are you feeling? Still tired but getting better

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Wore my first maternity outfit today...leggings and a maternity shirt...at 13w1d. This is my first so don't know if that's ok but I feel like it's still super early for that, especially since I have only gained 3.5lbs so far!! But it's so much more comfortable than regular clothes and I feel huge in all of my regular clothes!

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? Fruit and anything cold and recently carrots with ranch
  • What week/fruit are you? 15 weeks, orange or avocado

    How are you feeling? it's like night and day between 2nd and 1st trimesters! Still some bloating, and occasional constipation, but no stomach acid churning, no big nausea issues, I can brush my tongue again without gagging lol I have noticed that my sense of smell is more sensitive lately though (grilled chicken is disgusting, but Pinesol-mopped floors smell amazing!)

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I finally have energy again!! *knock on wood* I did some serious spring cleaning this weekend, the house was in bad shape since I've been so exhausted between long work hours and just general first trimester exhaustion. HOWEVER, after much thought, DH has accepted a new job 4 hrs away (much closer to both our families) which will mean in 2 months we'll be packing up ship. I am NOT looking forward to moving in the middle of summer at 6 months pregnant but I know it'll so be worth it in the end. Not to mention, I'll be giving my notice at work this week whenever I muster up the emotional strength...I've been a nanny/house manager for an amazing family with 2 amazing kids (4 and 7) for the past 18 months and I know there will be tears! :(

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? Haven't had one actual favorite food oddly since I'm naturally a very picky eater, but DH recently discovered Tropicana Watermelon juice at the store...yep, went through 2 gallons just this weekend! I'm sure my OB would frown at the sugar content but it's so damn good!
  •  I don't really get to Bump on the weekend, so sorry mine is a day late!

    What week/fruit are you? 13 weeks - lemon, macaron, hot wheels car

    How are you feeling? Starting to get heartburn after nearly every meal, and have had a bad headache 5 out of the last 7 days. Ugh. :( Other than that, though, not bad!

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Had an ultrasound of Friday and the pictures were grainy and horrible. :( But we did get to see baby kicking and hiccupping, and the little heartbeat going. Apparently this baby likes to squish itself into a corner. I had a little hand-held mini-ultrasound at my OB at 11 weeks and the woman doing it could not find the baby for a full minute and really freaked me out. Then with this U/S on Friday the tech (different place, different u/s tech) said the baby was a little difficult to find because it was squishing itself so far into the corner. What's the deal, baby? Belly is popping out enough now, you should have plenty of room not to have to hide!

    What has been your favorite food while pregnant? I haven't really had one. For a week or two I just wanted to eat anything and everything, and now I've gone back to my normal eating routine. Going shopping today for fruits and vegetables, because it's been a lot of greasy fast food lately.

  • @bamacoop aww that must have been so scary but that's so adorable that baby likes to be squished in the corner! I love that they seem to have preferences and a personality already hehe Can't wait to see ours again now that it looks like a real baby and is moving about! :)
