Re: Saturday Ticker Change! 8/20*
How far along are you? 22 weeks
How big is baby? coconut. Or a pan of brownies. mmm..
What's going on this week? I work at a college, this is my last full week of work before students start coming back in droves! Summer ends for me next week!
Symptoms/changes? Baby is kicking like crazy. Still fighting nighttime back pain :-\
Rants/Raves/Questions nada
GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? what did you do, where did you go? Hmmm. We don't really go out on date nights. We are home bodies and tend to just hang out around the house. I'm sure that will change when baby comes along and it will be nice to get out of the house every so often.
How big is baby? Coconut
What's going on this week? Not a whole lot! Cleaning, organizing, crocheting, housework.
Symptoms/changes? My back has been bothering me a lot more, which according to TB is normal at 22 weeks.
Rants/Raves/Questions: We're in housing/location limbo right now because DH had a job interview last week (yay!) for a new church. If it works out, we'll be moving this fall sometime. I want to buy so many baby things and start preparing the nursery, but it seems pointless until I know whether or not we'll be moving. So instead I guess we'll work on packing up our extra (crap storage) room. Whether we move or end up turning it into a nursery, it needs to be cleared out. Blah.
GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? what did you do, where did you go? We spent the weekend with my parents a few weeks ago when we had DD's second bday party. We went out to a nice dinner the night before, just the two of us! Then we got doughnuts. Yum.

How big is baby? Size of a coconut
What's going on this week? Not sure if this qualifies as depressing or awesome, but nothing really. Just waiting for all the toddler programs to start back up.
Symptoms/changes? Went from constipated, to gastroenteritis, back to constipated. Exhausted.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I know even all FTMs know this, but all the pregnancy troubles are worth it (making a point to remind myself).
GTKY: Went away to a beautiful beach resort without our DD for the first time 2 weeks ago. Of course it was a rain out. At least we had fun hugging her when we got back and slept in.
Baby is the size of a Barbie doll or grapefruit
what's going on this week? Nothing! I haven't updated in a while, but 3 weeks ago we found out we are having a girl!
Symptoms- luckily not much. I will say that my drive has been super low with this pregnancy in general. With my boys, it wasn't like this. Poor H.
Rants/raves: raves-I haven't felt better & am still teaching my group exercise classes! Rants-sleep is becoming harder at night
gtky: we are actually going away alone? for a wedding this upcoming weekend!
How big is baby? cauliflower
What's going on this week? follow up anatomy scan on Tuesday. and school starts on Monday
Symptoms/changes? I've been soooo emotional the last few days. I just keep crying. I think it's more the stress of getting ready for school to start, but also hormones. And more aches and pains. I'm starting to move slower.
Rants/Raves/Questions: I think I just ranted above... haha
GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? what did you do, where did you go? My birthday was last week, and this year I just decided to plan what I wanted to do instead of letting DH think of something. So we went to dinner, then a play, and stayed the night in a nice hotel on the river. It was lovely. Our usual date nights every few weeks are dinner out and going for a drive around sunset.

How big is baby?
an eggplant
What's going on this week?
My awesome MIL is taking my kids for 5 days! This hasn't happened since last year in July. They've adopted 2 boys then and I took the boys for a week, now my girls get to go to grandmas! I get to nest and I've already started going through baby clothes from our girls. There's a surprising amount of neutral and boy clothes, but I am so sad getting rid of most of my girl clothes.
Symptoms/changes?
Just a super cute, squirmy baby that you can now see moving from the outside of my stomach. And a swollen pelvis, uncomfortable sleeping, insomnia and exhaustion. Good times.
Rants/Raves/Questions
I want to slap people who are smoking when I'm in the vicinity.
GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? what did you do, where did you go?
Our last date night was sushi in March or April, I can't remember. But we have a big one coming up on Tuesday, we get to go to dinner and a Brandi Carlile concert in Seattle! So excited!!!!
24 weeks! Yay Viability day!!
How big is baby?
A GI Joe, cantaloupe
What's going on this week?
I have my 24 week check on Tuesday but it won't be anything exciting. It's crazy to think I have one more appointment before I start going every 2 weeks!
Symptoms/changes?
Meat is my enemy. I need to start looking for some good vegetarian meals.

GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? what did you do, where did you go?
I can't even remember! We went out for my birthday in July, maybe that was it!
How big is baby? THe same size as the head of Thor's hammer, lol
What's going on this week? Inservice starts for school! A lot of work ahead this week.
Symptoms/changes? You know those stitches in your side you get when you run sometimes? My RLP has become that feeing all below my bump. At first I thought i was overdoing it, or not drinking enough water, but even on the days when I am lazy and watering it happens. Lovely. Also I feel like I got kicked directly in the vagina, so that's fun.
Rants/Raves/Questions-the third trimester is like, 2 weeks away. What happened to time? I only have two more checkups (not including the GD test coming up Friday) before I go biweekly. For some reason, things just seem to be going so fast!
GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? It has been QUITE awhile, lol. but usually we go to this restaurant near my work that we don't take DS to because he gets a little too squirelly.
How big is baby? Cantaloupe or eggplant
What's going on this week? Interviewing a few pediatricians this week so that's exciting!
Symptoms/changes? Trouble sleeping, I'm pretty comfortable, it's just my body decides to be wide awake between 2-3am
Rants/Raves/Questions Nothing this week
GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? what did you do, where did you go? About a month ago we went to an outdoor community musician night at a local park. We packed a picnic, it was nice.

How big is baby? Head of cabbage or cauliflower
What's going on this week? The usual chaos of the work week starting tomorrow, no dr visits or anything exciting this week!
Symptoms/changes? @SmashJam that same stitch pain you are talking about, yes yes and yes!! I couldn't think how to describe it either but that's exactly it.
Rants/Raves/Questions: my back is really bothering me today, into my hip and upper leg. (Hoping it's not sciatic starting) Yesterday was a super busy day and I'm thinking maybe I overdid it a little.
GTKY: When's the last time you had a date night with DH/SO? what did you do, where did you go?
Hmm it's been a while actually, we just talked about visiting our favorite Italian restaurant in the next few weeks. Though we did have an ice cream date last week!
