GTKY (stolen from Tuesday and Wednesday - I'm lazy and it's a good question): What did you do after high school? Community college, 4 year, right to work, Peace Corps? If you could go back in time, would you take the same path?

Re: Thursday Ticker Change - 6/2/16
Rants/Raves/Questions? I think this baby is making me lactose intolerant
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Been skipping dinner a lot lately because absolutely nothing sounds good.. So then I eat everything the next day!
Upcoming appointments? Tuesday.. Just a check up
GTKY (stolen from Tuesday and Wednesday - I'm lazy and it's a good question): What did you do after high school? Community college, 4 year, right to work, Peace Corps? If you could go back in time, would you take the same path? Went right to college, graduated, then starting working full time while doing my masters online. I would definitely take the right path.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I had full on pregnancy rage yesterday, but seem to have evened out today. Whatever, hormones.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I feel pretty normal in this area, but still don't really like chicken.
Upcoming appointments? Not until July 11, when I'll have my one-hour GD test. I had a great check-up with my OBGYN on Tuesday.
GTKY (stolen from Tuesday and Wednesday - I'm lazy and it's a good question): What did you do after high school? Community college, 4 year, right to work, Peace Corps? If you could go back in time, would you take the same path? I went to a 4-year college right after high school and always planned to go to law school, but was offered a great job right after undergrad. I stayed at that job for 4 years and then went to law school. I think it was the right choice for me. I was a much better law student than undergrad student, and I think I just needed the time and maturity that working gave me.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Feeling baby move consistently, which is amazing. I'm just getting so excited to meet this kiddo...I really hope the next few months go quickly!!
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? This pain in my right ribs, under my boob, is getting worse. Now it hurts all the time. I have really not been able to stomach chicken lately...it is just so unappealing to me...which sucks because I know I'm not getting enough protein.
Upcoming appointments? Cervical length scan tomorrow and then a follow up scan at the perinatologist on June 17 to check the baby's arrhythmia to see if it's improved...praying it will have corrected itself by then.
GTKY (stolen from Tuesday and Wednesday - I'm lazy and it's a good question): What did you do after high school? Community college, 4 year, right to work, Peace Corps? If you could go back in time, would you take the same path? I went to college, but could only take classes part-time because I was working full time. I also switched colleges and changed majors so it took me 7 years to get my degree. If I could do it again, I might have decided to go to school, stay in the dorms and not work. I would have loved to study abroad while I had the chance. But it all worked out to lead me to where I am today, so no regrets!!
Rants/Raves/Questions? My SO and I decided on names a while back and now that there's a 70% chance we're having a girl hes second guessing the name Kinzley. I love the name and have already told everyone we're naming the baby Kinzley or Colton but now hes hung up on it because Kinzley doesn't have a nickname and his mom accidentally pronounces it Kingsley sometimes.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I'm craving pizza and we have it so I'm happy but pizza also makes me nauseous so its a win/loose.
Upcoming appointments? We have a detailed AS with MFM on the 14. Super excited to confirm the gender and to confirm baby has no birth defects.
GTKY (stolen from Tuesday and Wednesday - I'm lazy and it's a good question): What did you do after high school? Community college, 4 year, right to work, Peace Corps? If you could go back in time, would you take the same path? After high school I moved myself out to Michigan because I thought it was going to be fun and felt like I didn't really have any reason to stay in California and my SO was from Michigan. I started working at 16 to save up for this move and honestly Michigan is kinda boring. I worked at a Tim Hortons to save up for my CNA got my CNA and started working on my Radiology Tech. degree which I switched to LPN. If I could go back in time I would've started working on my LPN sooner or even went straight for my RN ,but I'm perfectly contempt with where I am right now at the same time.
SO and I have been together: 5 Years+
BFP: 03/10
First Baby: 10/20/2016
Rants/Raves/Questions? How can I have a 10-inch baby in my stomach that I can barely even feel? I keep worrying something is wrong - especially since I feel my uterus is not quite as big as it should be (but the doctor thought things were fine last week).
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? My left hip is bugging me, so I can't sleep on my left side very much. I've had similar issues related to past back troubles, and I knew the pregnancy would irritate them, but still. Also, I usually feel the need to sleep more on an incline because of my stomach, which puts more pressure on my hips and lower back, so there are trade-offs.
Upcoming appointments? Just had the 20 week so waiting a few weeks for the 24 week (which is boring)
GTKY (stolen from Tuesday and Wednesday - I'm lazy and it's a good question): What did you do after high school? Community college, 4 year, right to work, Peace Corps? If you could go back in time, would you take the same path? I went straight to university, although I transferred a bit and spent some time at a community college before finishing my B.A. Did my M.A. straight after that and my Ph.D. straight after that. Since I already feel pretty damn old by the time I'm starting my regular life, I would not have postponed anything! And I would not have omitted anything, either. My education is super important to me.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Sleeping has become more challenging, which I dont remember happening this early the first time. I suppose the occasional toddler awakenings arent helping this time around!
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? No aversions. No specific cravings. Symptoms- pelvic discomfort, some heartburn at night. Nothing too bad.
Upcoming appointments? a week from today is my 20 week check up and anatomy scan- so ready to see baby again and know that things are healthy. We are still undecided if we are going to be team green this time (we were the first time around)- so I think we've decided to have the tech write it down for us and decide later.
GTKY (stolen from Tuesday and Wednesday - I'm lazy and it's a good question): What did you do after high school? Community college, 4 year, right to work, Peace Corps? If you could go back in time, would you take the same path? I went straight to university to a 6 year program that ended in a clinical doctorate (with a BS along the way). I am very happy I did it all at once- I eliminated several years by doing it that way. After university I moved to Hawaii on a whim (although I did have a professional job there) and met DH there. So all in all, happy with the path I chose. I think the only thing Id change is that I would have taken work a bit less seriously so early and done more traveling before DS arrived.

Not much is happening... this pregnancy has been pretty uneventful.

After high school I went to a local community college but that didn't last long. I finally finished my BS two weeks ago. In hindsight it would have been better to finish a lonnnng time ago
