Re: Wednesday Ticker Change - 10/19

  • How far along are you? 16 weeks

    How big is baby? Avocado

    Appointments this week? No, but anxiously counting down to next Friday where we hopefully find out gender!

    Symptoms? Just lots of stretching and pulling and achy hips lately.

    Rant/Rave/Questions? Ok, sorry if this is TMI but I figured you all are a pretty cool group and safe to throw this out there. Anyone else having like super low sex drive? I understood it in first tri cause I felt miserable and had NO energy what so ever but now that I'm in second tri, I am feeling really pretty good and figured that would come back. Nope. I'd be good with like maybe once a week which is so not like me. I feel bad for my poor DH as he's been lately wanting it every day and I feel like a horrible wife turning him down so much. He's taken it pretty well most of the time, but I know his feelings are probably hurt. I really try but I seriously feel like there's just a switch that's turned off and I want it turned back on!

    GTKY: Honestly I would love to just take a long road trip out to the east coast - I hear it's beautiful in the fall. Or to see the CA redwoods.

    How big is baby? Avocado! (I was excited about this one because I LOVE avocados)

    Appointments this week? Yep - tomorrow! Quick check-up and I get to hear the heartbeat.  

    Symptoms? Headaches, round ligament pain (esp. when I cough - ouch!)

    Rant/Rave/Questions? I usually have choir practice Wednesday nights, but I told our director I'd be skipping due to one of DH's concerts.  Turns out the concert is tomorrow, so I'm now looking forward to my evening of not doing anything!! It's the little things.  I might make some cookies....  ;)

    @mylittleirvz My drive has rebounded a little bit from first trimester (between the nausea at night and the fatigue I was just not up for it at all), but not completely.  Of course both DH and I have been sick recently so that didn't help things. I hope mine improves too!!

    GTKY: If there were no travel advisories or diseases to worry about, where would you like to go on vacation right now? If not pregnant, Germany (I'd probably drink my weight in beer).  But since I said right now, I'll go with Rome!

    Appointments this week? 
    Nope
    Symptoms?
    Headaches and lots of round ligament pain. 
    Rant/Rave/Questions? 
    @mylittleirvz - my drive has been way down the past couple of weeks, too. I definitely had more of a drive in the first tri than I do now. I think it's because I've been having so much RLP, it keeps me from wanting to do any kind of funky movement. 
    GTKY: If there were no travel advisories or diseases to worry about, where would you like to go on vacation right now?
    Probably the Bahamas. I have been dying to go to a beach, and that was the last one I went to, which was 4 years ago!

  • How far along are you? 
    15 weeks; woot woot!

    How big is baby? 
    A cinnamon roll (and now I want a cinnamon roll, bah!).

    Appointments this week? 
    Nope; nothing until next month.

    Symptoms?
    Still pretty mild. My boobs are really sore today. And I'm pretty bitchy lately (though some people would ague that's not a new development ;)).

    Rant/Rave/Questions? 
    @mylittleirvz My sex drive/energy level stayed SUPER low my entire pregnancy with DS...poor DH was bummed about it, but he got over it. I tried to make an effort to ensure that there was some sort of sexy-time at least once a week to keep him from being too upset about it, but don't let it get to a point where it feels like you're just going through the motions and doing it to do it. Hopefully things start to turn the corner for you soon!

    If I were also not pregnant I'd be backpacking across New Zealand right now...

    How big is baby? Avocado

    Appointments this week? Just got back from the check up. Everything is good and I got to hear the heartbeat for the first time. I'm floating and totally in love. 

    Symptoms? Been off and on a lot this week. Not feeling nearly as sick but been worried/nervous more often. Was super sick on Sunday but feeling better since then. 

    Rant/Rave/Questions? @mylittleirvz I would say sex drive has definitely been lower. Husband and I seem to be feeling sick at opposite times, so it hasn't come up much. 

    GTKY: I'm excited to be going to visit my family this weekend. We are doing our annual shopping trip with the girls. And I need a LOT of new clothes.
