Re: Weekend Ticker Change 1/28 & 1/29
How big is baby? Grapefruit, yeah ok bump, whatever makes you feel better.
Any appointments this week? Yup! Have to go finish the A/S so hopefully baby is more cooperative, part of me evilly hopes baby is not *evil grin*
Symptoms? Crabby, actually my whole mood is just in the dumps lately. Maybe it's the lack of sun for the past month. I haven't really been feeling baby move lately and it has me a little nervous, but think I'm just becoming inpatient to feel actual movement. Also, baby needs to readjust itself because it has been killing my sciatic nerve this week.
Cravings? OJ, all the OJ. And skittles.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Rave-I applied for a job last week, interviewed Monday, and received the job offer on Thursday! I'm pretty excited since I wasn't expecting to get the job. Unfortunately, I don't start for almost a month, but at least I have time to really bunker down and finish my to-do list. Also, this means we don't have to move!
GTKY: If you could only eat three things everyday what would they be? Green apples, Sausage, Waffles with strawberry syrup (is that last one cheating? lol)
Thanks for starting again Jen! I had a really good GTKY on Thursday but forgot by today.
How big is baby? Baseball glove
Any appointments this week? GD test

Rants/Raves/Questions? So happy to have a bunch of time off this week to celebrate my bday and the Super Bowl. Go Pats!
GTKY: I'm totally stealing this from Thursday but; If you could only eat three things everyday what would they be? big fresh salad, bagel with cream cheese and lox, and old bay popcorn
How big is baby? Grapefruit!
Any appointments this week? Nope, another week and a half or so.
Symptoms? My hips have started aching which I don't remember from before, but we have been walking about 8 miles a day while on vacation, so I'm attributing most of the pain to that.
Cravings? I've been craving salads and wraps like crazy the last week! Glad I've moved on from carbs and sweets (although let's be honest, I still eat sweets pretty much daily)
Rants/Raves/Questions? We are still so far away on choosing a name. We haven't talked about it for a few weeks, but both strongly dislike the other's top choice. Sigh. I just want it settled!
GTKY: I'm totally stealing this from Thursday but; If you could only eat three things everyday what would they be? Oh man, probably cheese, bread, and chocolate.
How far along are you? 24 weeks!! yay!!
How big is baby? the size of a puffin. I thought this was cute.
Any appointments this week? Routine visit on Tuesday
Symptoms? My sinuses are usually bad but not like this. Ridiculous headaches. A few nosebleeds. Boobs are starting to ache again. And what did I say about having energy last week? That's all over.
Cravings? nothing new.
Rants/Raves/Questions? can't think of any.
GTKY: I'm totally stealing this from Thursday but; If you could only eat three things everyday what would they be? Cheese, pop tarts, bacon
How big is baby? A Barbie doll
Any appointments this week? Nope
Symptoms? Lots of hip pain during the night

Rants/Raves/Questions? Not this week.
GTKY: I'm totally stealing this from Thursday but; If you could only eat three things everyday what would they be? blueberry morning cereal, guacamole greens salad from sweet green, and spaghetti with meatballs and Parmesan cheese.
How big is baby? Kale. WTF?
Any appointments this week? Check up on Thursday.
Symptoms? I went on a (short) winter hike on Friday and my hip flexors, which I've maybe felt one other time in my life, were so ridiculously sore!! Like I almost had to have someone assist me to my car afterwards. It was bad. Other than that crazy incident, baby kicks and for real weight gain. Oh and still with the rib pain.
Cravings? Pineapple...mmmmm....
Rants/Raves/Questions? My cat has been sick for the last 3 weeks and I'm afraid he's got something stuck up his nose. Our regular vet had him on antibiotics, but they didn't seem to work, so he suggested I take the cat to another, bigger clinic with more equipment. I called to make an appointment, and it sounds like it's going to cost upwards of $1300 if there is something up there - not something I had budgeted for. He's such a sweet cat and it breaks my heart when he doesn't feel well, but I just don't know what we're going to do. I'm hoping the new vet will say he just needs a different antibiotic and it will clear up.
GTKY: I'm totally stealing this from Thursday but; If you could only eat three things everyday what would they be? If it didn't make me feel like crap, I'd eat cereal, pop tarts, and chocolate.

@livin541 I'm pretty sure our kid isn't going to have a middle name. We can't decide on one and hate all choices so far.
@diann21 Yikes! I hope it doesn't come to something up your poor cats nose! It does really suck when pets are sick, I'm dreading the day I have to make a vet trip and pay thousands.
