GTKY: What is something that people do on social media that is pet peeve of yours? (Totally stole from another post because it's a good one!)
I hate vague booking especially the "I need prayers! god knows the reason!" And then no more information. Or someone will ask them what's up and they will say something like "it's out there!" Or equally vague response. If you want help or support ask for it directly don't blast to FB about needing unseen support but not tell anyone what's going on or even minimal information on what is going on
Upcoming appointments this week? Nothing until the 28th, anatomy scan!
Any new symptoms or changes? Still getting sick (wtf!) And a sinus headache that won't leave me alone
Rants/Raves/Questions? Rave: this beautiful weather! Me and my boy are spending so much time outside. Rant: teething. Molars are tough!
GTKY: What is something that people do on social media that is pet peeve of yours? (Totally stole from another post because it's a good one!) this is a good one, I have 2 that really drive me nuts! #1- when people are really vague and are searching for people to ask about it. Ex. "I can't believe this is happening to me, worst day ever" Even worse when someone does ask what's wrong and they come back with "I don't want to talk about it"... uh why did you say anything then!?! #2-the people who make it out like they are unbelievably happy when you know they aren't. I have a lot of friends that are not in good relationships, and often vent to me about it but on Facebook they are all "don't know what I would do without this guy, love him more than anything, your my rock and make me so happy". Weren't you guys going to break up yesterday?

Rants/Raves/Questions?
GTKY: What is something that people do on social media that is pet peeve of yours? (Totally stole from another post because it's a good one!) complaining and then airing dirty laundry I feel like there is a time and place for that and FB is not that.
Upcoming appointments this week? Not until the 28th.
Any new symptoms or changes? Nothing fun like feeling movement (jealous). Digestive issues. Dizzy when I'm on my feet more than a few minutes. RLP.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
GTKY: What is something that people do on social media that is pet peeve of yours? (Totally stole from another post because it's a good one!) I'm not on social media anymore. So let me try and think to a few years back. Hm. People who will accept any and all friend requests and add total strangers in order to have a bigger friends list and more "likes". They use social media to confirm to themselves that they're the bee's knees (when really it's obvious they are insecure about their lives).
BFP May 2013 - MMC at 8 weeks BFP September 2013 - MMC at 12 weeks BFP February 2014 - early loss/CP at 4.5 weeks BFP May 2014 - MMC/ complete molar pregnancy at 11 weeks BFP December 2015 - DD born 8/18/2015 BFP November 2016 - pending...
Upcoming appointments this week? None until next week, 2/23.
Any new symptoms or changes? I've been staying awake until 930 instead of 8/830 - this is seriously a huge accomplishment! I'm with @yellow1daisy , no movement yet. Waiting.... waiting... waiting.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm annoyed with Target. My DH and FINALLY agreed on nursery furniture AND found a set that had all the pieces we wanted (convertible crib, bookcase, dresser, nightstand) so I created a registry to add them and 2 of the 4 pieces aren't available in the color we wanted. Not just 'not available' but don't appear to exist yet they are still showing the picture on the site. I went into the store and they still show them as existing as well. I was routed to call customer service who doesn't show they are discontinued but doesn't show when they may be available either. So now it's a waiting game. I know in the grand scheme of things this is nothing but I was very excited to cross that off the list
GTKY: What is something that people do on social media that is pet peeve of yours? (Totally stole from another post because it's a good one!) Spelling and grammar mistakes. It's abundant and drives me bonkers. There, their, they're and your, you're are the WORST. Either that or vaguebooking.

Upcoming appointments this week? Monday I go for my A/S!
Any new symptoms or changes? the back pain is staring to be a major issue
Rants/Raves/Questions? got the call from my MD that my husbands blood work came back negative! I had been a carrier for spinal muscular atrophy and if he had come back positive it would have been a 1:4 chance that the baby would have it. Best news I've gotten in a long time!!
Also got the nursery painted and the crib put back together (it had been my son's bed). starting to feel real!
GTKY: What is something that people do on social media that is pet peeve of yours? (Totally stole from another post because it's a good one!) @JAM85 I agree with you. The vagueness is super annoying! And the people that only post about their business. I am all for promoting your business, but don't have every post be about it!
Upcoming appointments this week? Not until next week
Any new symptoms or changes? Nah I've been ok. Anxious to start feeling movement... placenta is posterior so I feel like it should be happening at this point...
Rants/Raves/Questions? So far so good
GTKY: What is something that people do on social media that is pet peeve of yours? (Totally stole from another post because it's a good one!) that's a great one! +1 to all the ones mentioned, especially the weird personal over sharing. I think I mentioned that girl before that blasts daily pregnancy updates to her 1000 fb friends... also she was posting Bump pictures to fb since she turned a test positive ... also annoying are people posting opaque statements like "what a horrible day" just waiting for someone to comment...just no!
