    How far along are you? 18 weeks

    How big is baby? Artichoke

    Appointments this week? None this week, but have the anatomy scan next Monday! 

    Symptoms? RLP has started pretty fierce, acid reflux at night, ankles swell if i stand up for too long. Fun stuff! 

    Rant/Rave/Questions? Omg @mia1116 YES. So sick of the little pee escapes. I've had a cold for 2 weeks, so there's lots of coughing and sneezing. I've finally resorted to wearing a pad, which I'm not happy about. And 24/7 kegels practice...

    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie? Snickerdoodles or oatmeal chocolate chip!

    How far along are you? 14 weeks 

    How big is baby? as wide as a polaroid picture and as big as a peach

    Appointments this week? tomorrow is the check up with genetics

    Symptoms? nausea is becoming much milder *knock on wood* and I actually had an appetite this weekend but I can still only tolerate baby portions before I feel over full.

    Rant/Rave/Questions?
    Rant- Agreed with @mia1116 this peeing when coughing/sneezing/throwing up is getting old quick.
    Rave- Hubby got all the leaves together from our yard so they can get recycled/trashed this week :)

    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie?
    We call them minty witches...they're smaller than a quarter. chocolate sandwich cookies with half an Andes candy melted between. I could eat dozens in a sitting, but usually try to restrain myself.

    How far along are you? 14 weeks

    How big is baby? Peach

    Appointments this week? Dec 1 is a regular checkup 

    Symptoms? Still nauseated pretty frequently but a tiny bit less tired.  

    Rant/Rave/Questions? Yay second trimester!!

    also we found out via NIPT that our little peach is a girl!!!!  So excited (even though woulda been totally ecstatic either way)

    question:  how do I get rid of the gray box?  I used to know and now I'm always stuck in it



    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie? Used to be sugar cookie with frosting but during these least several weeks it is snickerdoodles!  Panera has great ones.  I got a box of snickerdoodles from the wal mart bakery after obsessing over them and they were a total disappointment so I'll have to make my own.

    How far along are you? 14 weeks (yayayay!) 

    How big is baby? Peach

    Appointments this week? Not til Dec 7th

    Symptoms? Moody as shit, boobs are sore, *TMI* got some discharge going on, which is pretty annoying *end TMI* and I keep having to wake up in the middle of the night to pee.

    Rant/Rave/Questions? I am so excited to be in the second trimester, and I definitely have a little bump now! Now if my PGAL brain could just believe baby is doing okay, that would be great. 

    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie? I make an awesome gingerbread cookie, and I love it because I only have it around Christmas.

    15 weeks! I told DH that this weekend and he freaked out that it's going so fast! Ha, I feel like it's dragging! 

    How big is baby?
    Naval orange or a box of crayons! 

    Appointments this week? 
    Nope, next week! 

    Symptoms?
    Nothing new this week, seems like the nausea has finally let up in the last day or two. This is the longest it's lasted in any of my pregnancies so I was worried this was going to be one of those entire 40 weeks ones! 

    Rant/Rave/Questions?
    I'm already sick of the cold and rain and winter barely has started! 

    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie?
    Ginger Mollasses! But those are usually only around in the winter. Peanut Butter year round!

    How far along are you? 18 weeks

    How big is baby? Sweet potato

    Appointments this week? None

    Symptoms? RLP, occasional nausea but pretty minimal now, lots of peeing, insomnia. 

    Rant/Rave/Questions? The last few days while we were out of town I started worrying that while it's been 3 weeks since I started feeling baby, I hardly feel him and somedays not at all. Then today happened and I felt him a good 8-10 times over a couple of hours in the early afternoon. What an amazing feeling! I'm hoping it's the beginning of feeling him regularly.

    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie? I love monster cookies. Yum!

    How far along are you?  16 Weeks!!

    How big is baby? The size of a Dill Pickle! (My favorite)

    Appointments this week?  16 week apt. I'm bummed no US.

    Symptoms? Exhaustion, that's about it... 

    Rant/Rave/Questions? Although I'm glad I'm over the MS, since I'm still not showing or feeling anything it makes me nervous. There is like no reassurance right now. 

    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie? I Love my Rolo stuffed snickerdoodles. I LOVE baking Christmas Cookies!!

    @Cubslove12 tell me more about the rolo stuffed snickerdoodles...do you put the rolo on top?  Or "roll" it inside a ball of cookie dough?  I can't wait to find out the answer to make some!!

    @vrj0522 totally snooping. But I feel the same. I've felt him for a few weeks but I can go a day or two without feeling anything and get freaked out. My impromptu ultrasound yesterday made me realize that he's dancing the Irish jig in there but I just can't feel it all yet. But hoping that 18-20 weeks brings big changes.

    A day late... my Mondays these days are rough, but I only have one more crappy one and then I'll be on Christmas break! Woo hoo!

    How far along are you? 14 Weeks

    How big is baby? A peach/lemon or apparently a filet mignon? 

    Appointments this week? Nope... Nothing until Dec 9th

    Symptoms? I'm still waiting on the second trimester magic. I definitely don't feel sick, but I just feel kinda crappy and exhausted all the time. And the HEADACHES. Ugh. And I still can't eat more than about 1/4 of my normal portions without feeling so full I might burst.

    Rant/Rave/Questions? I'm ready to start actually showing. Right now, I definitely have a "blump" still, but its more like a beer belly than anything else. I know its just my uterus pushing my fat out right now, but I just feel pudgy. Rave is that my H has been really great lately and really picking up my slack. Between school and work and just general pregnancy yuck, I haven't been much of a housewife.

    GTKY: What is your favorite cookie? Ohhh so many. It doesn't really count as a cookie, but my favorite thing that was in my Aunt's cookie tin growing up is Gooey Butter Cake. It's a St. Louis tradition and it's delicious, and oh so easy. Plus, it always came in the mail, and once it was cold from being in the December mail, it was even better! https://www.food.com/recipe/st-louis-style-gooey-butter-cake-195977
