Symptoms? Exhaustion, Rib pain still, general feeling of being hit by a truck over and over
Cravings? Biggest food thing is still aversions. But I'm liking pb&j lately
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green
Rants/Raves/Questions? Just feeling like I can barely function most days. Planning to bring it up tomorrow at my appointment.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? I asked this selfishly. I went to Guns n Roses concert last night. It's the "Not in this Lifetime" tour in which Axl and Slash actually reunited! It was freaking great. Best concert I've ever been to.
TTC1: May 2015
Primary IF May 2016; Failed HSG; Scheduled Lap Sept. 2016
How far along are you? 28 Weeks!! Officially third trimester
How big is baby? Eggplant
Any appointments this week? 3 hour glucose test Wednesday
Symptoms? Heartburn!!!!!!!, tired, feeling down about my weight gain, lots of movement
Cravings? Carbs always.
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Pink!
Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm so sad about failing my 1 hour. Although, I have been eating really poorly. I really hope I don't have GD but I could probably use a variation of the diet.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? Hmm this is a tough one, maybe Ben Folds?
Any appointments this week? Had one yesterday, so nothing this coming week! Crazy I'm going every 2 weeks now!
Symptoms? Heartburn/Indigestion, trouble sleeping because of the heartburn and baby moving a lot, sciatica...
Cravings? Cookies
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue! Getting crib bedding washed today!!
Rants/Raves/Questions? Measuring a few weeks ahead so that makes me a little nervous. My daughter was a week late and always measured small, so I don't know what to expect with this little guy!
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? Hmmm... most recently Carrie Underwood
Any appointments this week? 3 hour glucose Tuesday. Fingers crossed!
Symptoms? Extremely tired. Been experiencing numbness in my left leg. OB suggested I wear a support band. It helps but going to take some time getting used to wearing it.
Cravings? Protein. Burgers, steak, sausage, you name it.
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Pink
Rants/Raves/Questions? Nope.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? Garth Brooks. It was on my bucket list.
Any appointments this week? Did my 1 hour GTT and got my TDaP and Rhogam yesterday. Woot!
Symptoms? I get full easy
Cravings? Grapefruit, mini chewy sweet tarts
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green
Rants/Raves/Questions? I have to AW a little bit. I finally finished a 90x90 graphgan this week! It takes up my entire living room so it's hard to get a good photograph of it. It only took my 2 years...and the only reason I agreed to do this is because I knew the person would pay and wait how ever long it took me to complete.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? Bon Jovi. It was awesome, he shook his hips like he was 18, and I got to see my mom climb on her chair and dance. We ended up with some amazing seats for a steal without even knowing.
How far along are you? 28 weeks officially 3rd tri!!!
How big is baby? A rollerblade
Any appointments this week? Yep on Thursday, can't wait to see what she recommends based on my refusal to take the 3 hour GTT.
Symptoms? Hip pain, back pain, and my first BH contractions.
Cravings? Not really
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue!
Rants/Raves/Questions? My rant is that I failed the 1 hour glucose screen and am refusing the 3 hour if I can get away with it. It is not an option to have 4 blood draws inside of 3 hours. I am worried about my options and dr. being unwilling to offer other solutions.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? It's a toss up, foo fighters at Fenway, U2, or a combo Ben folds/guster show.
How big is baby? Acorn squash/gizmo/1 gal jug of milk (I think Gizmo is my favorite!)
Any appointments this week? GTT and OB Monday...dentist Tuesday but I might cancel it. I've already been twice (gum issues) and it's a different hygienist. I have horrible anxiety for the dentist and usually have to take Meds for it to indonok with the same person. She's on maternity right now...
Symptoms? Back and hips are sore, occasional heartburn, tired, a lot more movement! Does it make anyone else's stomach sore? Lol
Cravings? Everything? Because there isn't one thing in particular.
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue
Rants/Raves/Questions? I hate moving. My husband has been great! I had a question but can't remember it, maybe it was just the one from above.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? I've been to a lot but I really liked Hunter Hayes or NeedtoBreathe the best.
"A day without laughter is a day wasted." ~Charlie Chaplin
Symptoms? Heartburn mostly...starting to get some dry skin
Cravings? Cinnabon yogurt, salads with crisp bell pepper, juice
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue
Rants/Raves/Questions? Super pissed at DH, I went to bed with a clean kitchen and woke up to a mess from him and his buddy drinking and cooking last night.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? My favorite was one of the Warped Tours from a few years back as it is one of the last memories I have with my beat friend before he passed
@Jens_Hoes I am a horrible needle stick. I am absolutely terrified of blood draws and all that comes with them - the full body sweats, passing out, all that good stuff.
I'm going to see if there are any other reasonable alternatives available before I ask her to pass on it altogether.
Symptoms? Moving is annoying. Heartburn is happening a lot.
Cravings? Not really
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue
Rants/Raves/Questions? I sure hope we close on that house within the next two weeks. Our builder is so annoying.
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? Probably Depeche Mode in Moscow. That was a great show. My husband's a big fan, so now they're going on tour again we might go see them a couple of times while they're at it (for what it's worth, it could be their last one).
Symptoms? Pelvic pain feels unbearable these days I literally take a luke warm bath whenever I get the chance, skin feels like its already stretched to its max, the boobs are getting heavy and I'm over them, just the overall bigness is setting in
Cravings? All things sweet
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green
Rants/Raves/Questions? Just depressed that I am already this big and I still got 10-12 weeks left to go
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? I enjoyed seeing Coldplay live
Any appointments this week? Yes on thursday just a normal pop in and out hopefully
Symptoms? Waddle, insomnia which I did not have with the first, exhausted, short tempered, pee all the time because I cannot hold it at this point.
Cravings? Still craving cheese eating half a block of cheese as a night snack the last three nights!
Team Pink/Blue/Green? Pink- Claire
Rants/Raves/Questions? We just bought a puppy and on top of my insomnia and having DH snoring occasionally wake me up new puppy also snores!! Hes super adorable so i'll let it slide for now lol but geez I am feeling the new born stage is already here sleep wise and wondering when I will sleep again nicely!
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? Incubus opened for themselves so it was almost 4 hours of their music back when I was graduating highschool in 2004 it was awesome. Bare naked ladies was also good because they are jokers who talk alot between music as I was not a super fan of their music just went with the guy I dated. I really don't like live music, I think the OCD in me likes the radio version and then when I go to a concert I am not happy with the impromptu vocal changes.
Any appointments this week? appointment with the midwife on Wednesday and then Sunday I have an ultrasound to check on my placenta previa.
Symptoms? Tailbone pain and my feet have started to swell.
Cravings? junk food
Team Pink/Blue/Green? blue
Rants/Raves/Questions? I really hope my placenta previa has resolved! I've been on pelvic rest for over 2 months and its been going by very slowly....
GTKY: What's the best concert you've seen? Judge away but the spice girl reunion tour was so fun! it was about 10 years ago but seems like yesterday ha.
@MTB16 I hope there is an alternative for you but I'm not sure there is. Passing on the 3 hour test and possibly having GD that would go undiagnosed does not sound like a good idea... have you done any research on this?
