  Rant/Rave/Questions? It's so hot here in MI and I just want to go for walks around my neighborhood or at the zoo (we're members). I can't wait until it cools down in Sept.

  How big is baby? Navel orange
  
  Appointments this week?  Nada though my next titer levels of antibodies was done this week.  Won't get results till next week though
  
  Symptom changes?  Overall feeling ok.  Tired during work but that's partially because I am
  ataying up late to watch the Olympics. 
  
  Rant/Rave/Questions?  I am with Gretchypoo, the constipation is not fun.  Trying to adjust my diet for better fiber but miralax works wonders when needed.
  
  GTKY: I can spend hours in Target if I am sans kids.  Otherwise I do most of my shopping online for convienence.  My husband always rolls his eyes at the number of packages we get but he never has to worry about clothing and feeding our 3 kids.

  Appointments this week? 

  NT scan was last Friday, and was really good. Yesterday I discovered that my Harmony test went inconclusive a second time. No one knows why, but it gives me a 14% chance of a chromosomal problem. I have to decide by Monday morning at 8am if I want to do CVS on Monday, Amnio in early September or let it ride. 
  
  

  Symptom changes?
  My back is getting better! Unfortunately, my tailbone is starting to throb and I keep setting off my sciatica. The nausea goes up and down - I keep thinking I can stop taking unisom+b6, then realizing what a bad idea that is!
  
  

  
  

  Rant/Rave/Questions? 
  
  I really wish I could get my hands on printed materials on the details of the CVS and amnio they're offering me. It's a bewildering array of choices without the technical details that make me feel better.

  I generally hate shopping. Maybe Zabar's - just because what they carry is so different from my local grocery stores. Oh, and if we had a cake supply store here - I'd cheerfully bury myself in it, but I'm stuck shopping online or driving forever.

  Thanks, @snarky14jd - I decided to wait for the amnio. That's two more weeks of waiting for the test, then a couple weeks of waiting for results (we MIGHT get FISH after 2 days, but I'm not getting my hopes up this time). 
  
  I'm kind of avoiding most things baby-related in the meantime, just to keep my stress levels down. Kind thoughts are always appreciated though!
