  • how far along are you? 22 weeks!

    How big is baby? a coconut!

    Any upcoming appointments this week? nope not this week

    Any new symptoms or changes? I think my uti is clearing up, it doesn't hurt to pee anymore. SPD is definitely getting worse, still waiting on my wraps from MM. I accidentally shipped hem to my grandmothers in LA and she had to ship them to me. I used her address when I bought stuff since we lived out in the swamps, it took an extra day to be delivered, even though it was maybe 10 miles down the road.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? the maintenance guys never came to fix the water leak yesterday but just showed up. It makes me stabby how they don't care.

    we had crawfish on Saturday for Mardi Gras, its my second fav holiday. We didn't do anything yesterday or Monday for Lundi Gras, bc not to many places in Texas celebrate it. I'm still working on what I'm giving up, since I'm staying home now I want to get up and get dressed at a decent time. I got very depressed before when I was a SAHM, I never wore makeup and always looked like I rolled out of bed, I just don't like my kids seeing me like that. A friend told me a few activities to do with the kids regarding grass seeds, if you plant it now it should be grown by Easter. I haven't decided what activities to do with them yet. I need to get on that.

  • @MrsLa3 glad your UTI is clearing up-- hopefully the SPD feels better soon! Also, shoutout for the awesome GTKY question! ;)

    how far along are you?
    21 weeks!

    How big is baby? The size of a head of endive

    Any upcoming appointments this week? Nope!

    Any new symptoms or changes? I've started to feel pressure when I move into certain positions. It's pretty fleeting and not uncomfortable per se, just a new thing. Other than that, I'm just trying to soak up all the movement. I can't wait for DH to be able to feel it as well.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I found a new go-to drink indulgence! I love La Croix but it was starting to get boring. Anyway, my friend introduced me to Topo Chico (sp?)-- a Mexican made mineral water. I prefer the lime variety. It's absolutely delicious!

    We live in Nola, so celebrating Mardi Gras is in our blood. Most people don't know that Mardi Gras is a month long family event and NOT what you see commonly portrayed on TV. (Ie- prepared to get some serious side-eye if you flash for beads anywhere but Bourbon Street on Fat Tuesday.) I had off work Monday (Lundi Gras) as well as yesterday, Fat Tuesday. We spent the last five days going to parades, eating, drinking beverage of the alcoholic and non-alcoholic variety, and spending time with friends.

    @oheliza44 you weren't off?!?! I can't believe you had to work! Uggh this is one of the things I miss most about Louisiana, I honestly didn't realize how much I loved it until we moved. 

    Eta: I guess I didn't read your last sentence, of course you went to parades!

    @mrsLa3 ugh UTIs are the worst. glad it's clearing up!

    how far along are you? 22 weeks!

    How big is baby? Coconut, Guinea Pig, Papaya

    Any upcoming appointments this week? Regular appointment Friday. Had to schedule with a midwife because my doctor is out this week. DH is 'anti-nonOB' and asked why we are seeing a 'witch doctor'. He's obviously joking, but he is a weirdo. 

    Any new symptoms or changes? Not really. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? My shipment of clothes from Carters arrived yesterday and I am obsessed. Baby girl clothes are too stinking cute. 

    GTKY: I'm going to do two today but they go together.

     Did anyone celebrate Mardi Gras? What did you do?  Is anyone celebrating Lent? What are you giving up? Any activities planned? 
    Nope and Nope. haha.

  • @Rae1 yes I love all things girl, bows, ruffles, everything. I've probably created a monster, she won't leave the house without a bow, necklace, and lipgloss. Maybe a FFFC girl clothes are cuter than boy clothes. I have a ton of cute boy clothes for both of my boys but I think companies for kids clothes cater to girls more. I went to kohl's the other day and there were TONS of racks for girls and 4 racks for boys which one included blankets and towel sets. 
  • @MrsLa3 yes, I had off Monday and Tuesday so today is my first work day of the week and we are leaving for a trip on Friday, so it is a short one at that! :)

    How big is baby? apparently a coconut

    Any upcoming appointments this week? Nope.

    Any new symptoms or changes? SPD is the worst! @MrsLa3 I totally feel your pain. Last week, my OB ordered me to adopt a modified schedule that has me working from home 2 days a week. My office has no elevator so it's nice to get a break from all the stairs, but the pain is still awful. Especially at night. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm still waiting on those sexy pregnancy dreams everyone was raving about. Mine are just plain weird

    Did anyone celebrate Mardi Gras? What did you do?  Is anyone celebrating Lent? What are you giving up?
     What are you giving up? Any activities planned? My family is Creole, so even though we live in CA, Mardi Gras is still a celebration. I had crawfish tails and boudin shipped in from Lafayette, LA and made a big pot of Jambalaya. I've been doing okay without alcohol, but I sure did miss my hurricane last night.

    A coconut? I'm so bad at checking the app for the weekly change. I was so much more on top of it for my son. Second child problems start early, I guess!

    Any upcoming appointments this week? 

    Nope. Anatomy scan last week, and it's a healthy boy!

    Any new symptoms or changes? 

    My nausea finally seems to be ending (knock on wood!!!), so I'm hopeful that I'm turning a corner. I'm glad your UTI is clearing up @MrsLa3  I had one about a month ago, and it was so uncomfortable!

    Rants/Raves/Questions?

    Just happy to be drinking coffee again!

    GTKY: I'm going to do two today but they go together.

    I ate paczki on Tuesday, but that's it. I wanted to duck out of work and get ashes yesterday, but I got caught up with an assignment. My husband on the other hand went down to St. Louis over the weekend to celebrate Marci gras with some friends. I stayed home, sick as a dog, with my son.  :|
  • how far along are you? 21 Weeks

    How big is baby? Carrot, cause I have no idea what an endive is... and I'm a vegan 

    Any upcoming appointments this week?  No, not until the end of the month 

    Any new symptoms or changes? Less nausea by a lot. Nothing else. More and more baby movements 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Rant: I'm just super bored today and wish my husband didn't have to work all day so he could stay home and we could cuddle and eat food

    GTKY: I'm going to do two today but they go together.

    I meant to make beignets but I ended up not feeling that great Tuesday night, so that didn't happen lol. Have never really done the whole Lent thing. The Christianity I grew up in didn't really do Lent, I half did it in high school cause all my friends were, and now I'm not religious at all, and pregnant lol, so I'm not doing anything this year. I normally do New Years Resolutions, but I felt like having my first baby was enough of a challenge this year. Same thing for Lent.
