Re: Thursday Ticker Change - 8/4

  • How far along are you?  22 weeks

    How big is baby? Coconut, corn on the cob

    What's happening this week? Not too much, but I have managed to get DH to a few baby stores.  And I picked out the glider I want!

    Symptom changes? Not really - still tired.  But I am noticing my bump getting bigger, especially when I lay flat on my back.

    R/R/Q?  Lots of movement - which is exciting!

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything?  I used to collect key chains when I was younger, now I collect yarn and DH collects pint glasses.

    How big is baby? Grapefruit

    What's happening this week? Not much. I feel like after the GD test at the end of the month it will be a looooong stretch of just waiting. It seems that the 1st 20 weeks flew by and now they're dragging.

    Symptom changes? Heartburn :( it was so bad it woke me up last night and I had to try sleeping sitting up for the rest of the night. And I guess I'm still producing colostrum (sp?) kinda cool. 

    R/R/Q? Movement is still sporadic :/ 

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything?  (sorry this is so lame, I need to start stealing from the other days) just clutter. lol.

  • Good Morning! :)

    How far along are you? 21 weeks!

    How big is baby? endive, baseball cap

    What's happening this week? I felt what I could absolutely say was movement for the first time yesterday so I'm super excited about that :) 

    Symptom changes? not a lot of symptoms this week but have been keeping really busy! 

    R/R/Q? I was poking at Bella this morning trying to get her to move and DH was like, she needs 14 hours of sleep a day - let her sleep! So cute <3

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything?  Nope. I am good about throwing crap away and I hate clutter. I used to have a lot of books CDs and movies but now I just use the kindle/apple for everything.

  • @juliehollz13 I totally agree that time started dragging - especially post anatomy scan!  It's also comforting because we have SO much to do with the nursery, by which I mean we have everything to do.

    @leksiL LOL! DH gets on to me for drinking ice water or poking the baby to get him to move. He's like "let the baby sleep!". lol

  • How far along are you? 22 weeks!

    How big is baby? A coconut or a standard hatchet head.

    What's happening this week? I have an OB appt Wednesday. We'll be "choosing" baby's birthday! Holy cow!

    Symptom changes? Besides what I mentioned in the symptoms thread, I don't think anything else has popped up.

    R/R/Q? My blood pressure has been low lately, like bottom number in the 50's. It has left me feeling lightheaded and fatigued all the freaking time. My perinatologist finally got back with me, and adjusted my meds. I'm hoping that the numbers start to rise a little, so I can start feeling better.

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything?  (sorry this is so lame, I need to start stealing from the other days The only thing I really collect is clothes, haha.

    How far along are you? 19 weeks

    How big is baby? Mango, pint of ice cream

    What's happening this week? Eeeeeeeee I find out if it's a he or a she tomorrow! (Just at one of those elective places.) Then my anatomy scan is next Wednesday! Much excite.

    Symptom changes? Well, I'm pretty sure I'm actually starting to feel the baby move, which is cool/weird. I don't know if I felt baby in my sleep last night, or if I was just dreaming about feeling the movements. It was odd. Other than that, a lot of peeing, acne, and the occasional RLP when I do something dumb like try to move too fast. EDIT: I think the pregsomnia has also started for me. It could just be because I'm not able to find a comfortable sleeping position though, combined with residual congestion from this terrible cold I'm getting over.

    R/R/Q? I started a Whole30 on the 1st, and it's going great so far. I feel so much healthier than I have in a while. And...***TMI ALERT*** The poops, ladies! The poops!

    GTKY: Um. Books? Between H and I, we have a lot of books. Oh, and H collects those pressed souvenir pennies!

  • How far along are you? 23 weeks How big is baby? Grapefruit? After 'length of a carrot' that's awfully small. Oh well. What's happening this week? Well yesterday I got put on bedrest, and today am trying to get it pushed back 1 month so FMLA will cover until NYs so I have a job when E gets here. Symptom changes? I'm super tired all the time, but chasing after an almost walking 1 yr can do that. R/R/Q? Rant: stupid vag. Suppositories gave me BP issues. I now have chalky white discharge that no one warned me about. Rave: L is 1 today!!!!!!!!! GTKY: Do you collect anything? (sorry this is so lame, I need to start stealing from the other days) I collect books, DVDs, and projects. I have 2 book cases full, a 1000 DVDs case that is 90% full, and idk how many half finished projects.

  • @karmba I am allowed to jobwise, not sure about the doc. Though. He is being really cautious, which I appreciate, but he is also making life difficult.

  • How far along are you?  20 weeks, halfway there!

    How big is baby?  A banana or an endive

    What's happening this week?  Registering this weekend!  No appts until the end of August.

    Symptom changes?  My BF got to feel the baby move this week!  He was so excited!  Not much else that's new, feeling pretty good lately!

    R/R/Q?  Nothing right now

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything?  I just started collecting those ceramic, painted Christmas trees a few years ago.  I have fond memories of my mom and my grandmother both having them as I was growing up.  Now I've become obsessed with having a little forest of them to display for the holidays.  That's about it though.

  • How far along are you?  23 weeks, can't believe he'll be here in 4 months!

    How big is baby?  A grapefruit or a bunch of grapes

    What's happening this week?  We're refinancing our house and the appraisal is next week. Lots of little projects to finish up, like getting all the baby gear into the attic instead of it cluttering up our living room.

    Symptom changes?  I had my first bout of real nausea today. Booooooo.

    R/R/Q?  He hasn't moved as much the last couple days and I can't help but stress out about it. I've felt really run down and am sneezing a lot - hoping I'm not getting a summer cold.

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything? We collect magnets from all our out of town trips (solo or together). I used to travel a lot for work so we have quite the collection going!
  • @gowenc My husband and I collect magnets from places we go too! It's such a neat way to remember where you've been. :)

    How big is baby? Banana

    What's happening this week? Anatomy scan tomorrow; can't wait! Been looking forward to it since our last ultrasound. Don't think I've felt movement thanks to anterior placenta, and I don't home doppler, so I can't wait to see her  <3

    Symptom changes?
    Still some sinus issues. Sometimes issues getting back to sleep after getting up in the night. Pretty moody this week too, probably related to being tired. 

    R/R/Q?

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything?  I like old things - old books, wooden boxes/crates, prints, etc. Pretty sure that's going to be put on hold for the next 18 years or so while I "collect" kids stuff  :) 
  • How far along are you? 22 weeks 

    How big is baby? Coconut

    What's happening this week? Not much, we have a giant resale consignment thing in our town called the Growing Kids Sale, it's all pregnancy and kid related stuff and it goes from Tues.-Sat. Everything on Saturday is 50% off and today was the first day it was open to the public, Tuesday and Wednesday it's only open to vendors. So anyway I went today and got some things but I'm going to go back Saturday and see what's left.

    Symptom changes?
    Still having MS. I think my hips are starting to spread because I am having a lot of hip/butt/leg pain on both sides and also back pain. It basically starts in what feels like my butt and if I can't sit down right away it starts shooting in all directions, so that's fun.

    R/R/Q?  I got way too hot and grumpy today and I'm just gonna have to try and adult tomorrow because today was too hard.

    GTKY:  Do you collect anything? Not really. We have a lot of books between us but I don't shop that much. When I had a regular job I feel like I collected clothes/makeup but I don't have nearly as much of those since I stay home. I almost never wear make up now, especially in the heat, and I don't dress up when all I'm doing is staying home and cleaning.
