Weekly Ticker Change 3/6
mrsmarygs
member
This thread is now for everyone to comment on. If your ticker changes on Tuesday, you can answer the bold questions on Tuesday. (If you forget, just post of whatever day you remember.) A few of us have discussed making this change so that everyone will feel free to comment and make conversation with those not in your daily ticker change.
How far along are you?
How big is baby?
Upcoming appointments this week?
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings?
Rants/Raves/Questions?
GTKY: What sports teams do you root for?
Re: Weekly Ticker Change 3/6
College football is really the only sport I watch, but my teams are Ohio State Buckeyes and Florida State Seminoles.
ETA: results are in, low risk baby boy!
Wisconsin Badgers and Chicago Bears. MH is a Redskins fan so we cheer them too. We love football.

I usually start the Tuesday Ticker change thread, but let’s try consolidating this board to a weekly check-in so there are more responses!
@mrsmgsee Could you change the title of this to Weekly Ticker Change?
@lap018 @parker0706 @kelseyrayay Check in here! And tag any other Tuesday ticker changers I missed!
How far along are you?
14 weeks! Ovia App officially says 2nd trimester!
How big is baby?
The size of a troll doll.
Upcoming appointments this week?
Not until March 27th. 4 weeks between appointments is too long!
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings?
Craving Italian Ice and Popsicles. And I’m hungry all the time – I finished half the food I brought for lunch already today.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Trying to put this extra energy to good use! I finally started the 1-month gym membership I bought before I found out I was pregnant. I’m trying to walk on the treadmill with an incline for about 30-45 minutes 5 times a week. Figure by the time the membership is up it will be nice enough to walk outside.
Q: For those of you planning on co-sleeping, will you get a bed side crib or a bed-sharing product? Any second time moms with co-sleeper tips or recommendations?
GTKY: What sports teams do you root for?
None. We love watching soccer and going to some MLS games, but we don’t have a favorite team.
Comment away!

Echoing @thinkpositive2017 I've been trying to find a good co sleeper (a crib with a wall down) but short of making one ourselves I can't find one I like since the Chicco ones seem to be to small for baby to stay in for very long
UT football! Braves baseball (yes I know I'm setting myself up for disappointment every year lol)
@kelseyrayay when will you find out sex? Anatomy scan or sooner?

rave - my mom is picking up DD from day care today and taking her back in the morning so i can go see Green Day with my bff.
Hungry early and then all day long. But a lot of foods gross me out (however that isn't all that unusual). Bloated, gassy, heartburn...
A little crampy here and there...which I know is normal but makes me nervous.
Some back pain-almost like my lower back is tempted to go out.

UCLA Bruins football (my alma mater) and Denver Broncos. I'm a football gal and don't follow any other sports really.
14 weeks!
Size of a peach
Just had one one this past Tuesday. Next one in 5 weeks.
Wanting meat eat for breakfast, getting lots of sleep!
This is baby 3, and we found out the sex with both of our other babies. We have one boy, one girl, and my DH really wants to be tram green this time. I'm kind of excited about that but then I also just really really wanna know! Ugh. Can it just be September already?!
DALLAS COWBOYS!!We also love the Texas Rangers, and Dallas Mavericks. We typically root for Ohio State in college football, my FIL went there so we support him.
Just more bloat. Less nausea, more heartburn and indigestion. Still having heart palpitations. Fatigue comes out of nowhere every now and then.
None really!

Me 34 DH 34
PCOS
Baby number 2 due 4/11/20
1. 15+0!!!
2. Baby is the size of a naval orange/pear/large lemon.
3. I have an appointment on Wednesday. I'm excited, no tests, bloodwork, scans, etc, just a visit with the OB. I feel like that is milestone in and of itself! lol.
4. No real cravings. Still hate water. I drink a lot of vitamin water (lemonade flavour!) and I'm about to bust out my kombucha again.
5. No rants or raves.
GYKY: I don't follow sports much anymore. I purposely cheer against pro Texas teams because EVERYONE jumps on their bandwagon whether they've cared about the sport or not. (I live in Texas, it's my small protest although I LOVE the state of Texas). I do enjoy Baylor sports and any volleyball- especially beach and Olympic level play.
<><><><><>Angel Baby- June 2012<><><><><>
<><><><><>DD2- March 2013<><><><><>
<><><><><>DS1- ETA September 2017<><><><><>
11 weeks today!
Brussels sprout
nope. The dreaded wait...
Symptoms include leg cramps, pelvic floor pressure and random lightning crotch. Still exhausted, many food aversions, but always hungry. Getting tired of certain foods already.
It's snowing so hard here today, we are probably already at 6"-8" and it's not letting up. Our power has shut off 3 times in the past 30 minutes. Praying it will stay on. Entering a 3.5 year old isn't really on my list of things I want to do today.
Professional football I am NY Giants fan. Baseball it's the Mets. I mostly follow college basketball, especially right now and I'm a die hard University of Virginia fan.
How big is baby?
Nausea and gagging have let up a little bit. I am having a lot of pain in my back. I lifted my daughter at the pool today and felt pain in my back and down my leg. Hopefully it feels better soon.
I have convinced myself that the Harmony gender test was wrong somehow. I just cannot believe we are having a boy!
I am originally from Ohio soooo.. Ohio State for college football/basketball and Cleveland Cavaliers for pro basketball. NFL and baseball teams were brought to the marriage by DH which are the Patriots and the Red Sox.

pittsburgh steelers and pittsburgh penguins. My dad is from Pittsburgh and my 2 oldest brothers live there. But i root for the LA Dodgers for baseball, my grandma dated Tommy Lasorda back in the day and my dh's cousin retired from the Dodgers.
