  • How far along are you & how big is baby?   18 weeks/croissant

    Upcoming appointments?
       Regular midwife appointment this Tuesday

    Symptoms?  What I'm guessing is round ligament pain and low back pain. Oh, and my boobs are still growing which is obnoxious.

    Cravings?  Milkshakes and tacos.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?   I'm so sick of the rain. I realize I live in the pacific northwest, but every time I go out to walk my dogs, it decides to torrential downpour. Bleh! Where's the sun?

    GTKY: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?   Probably Target, lol. I have a Target Redcard that pulls from my checking account at the moment. It limits my spending since it directly goes out of my bank account. This is for the best, especially since they have so much baby stuff.

  • @Mango517 Sounds like it could be round ligament pain (RLP). 

    *snip from babycenter*

    "The round ligaments surround your uterus in your pelvis. As your uterus grows during pregnancy, the ligaments stretch and thicken to accommodate and support it. These changes may occasionally cause pain on one or both sides of your abdomen, typically first noticed during the second trimester."

    Thanks @PinkPrincessPiper

    It could be! I'm not terrible concerned (only a little) since cramps and pain aren't involved. I guess our bodies just do some weird shit during pregnancy. 

    Edit: watch it's just gas or something

    Clearly we like to rush along at lightning speed...

    16 weeks - avocado 

    Upcoming appointments?   
    Nothing this week except a trip to the lab for blood work.

    Symptoms?  
    My insomnia is awful and the itchy boobs are really annoying.  Other than that, I feel pretty good.

    Cravings?  
    I've been thinking a lot about the ice cream and frozen yogurt I plan to enjoy when it finally warms up around here. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?   
    I'm so ready for winter to be over.  For the most part, it was pretty mild, but it has been really cold and windy the past two weekends.  Plus, we're supposed to get at least a foot of snow this week.  The slight peek into spring a few weeks ago was a cruel tease.  

    GTKY: At which store would you like to max-out your credit card?   
    I always seem to buy more than I intended at Target.  It's multiple stores, but I also tend to do damage at the outlets.  I enjoy shopping way too much.

  • @Mango517 - last week I couldn't sleep at all - tossing and turning, trying to stay on my side comfortably which just led to my hips radiating pain in the middle of the night. BRU had the Snoogle on sale and I gave up by Thursday and went a got one. Life changer haha. I slept 11 hours (with the regular two pee breaks) Saturday night. I wasn't going to get the crazy pillow but glad I did now!

  • @JWatt5 I have a snoogle too, but I'm still struggling to stay on my side. I've had it since Christmas basically and have struggled to figure out how to use it to get comfortable. I always wake up because whichever side I'm sleeping on that arm or hand has fallen asleep. But it has helped trying to transition to my side
  • @erindippity - I guess I've had good luck with it so far! I did hear that on the PAIF board one girl that had the same problem went with the Back N' Belly pillow by the same company. Said she loves it - it's a lot bigger but lets you sleep on your back with lots of good reviews. https://leachco.com/products/back-n-belly-sup-sup-chic
    The Snoogle was less money so I thought I'd start with that. :) I didn't think it would work for me at all.

  • @JWatt5 I broke my neck in high school, and I've always struggled to be comfortable sleeping ever since. It's like now I've got pain in my neck/shoulders, and also back/butt/hips. So it's really hard for me to get/stay comfortable, but I think snoogle has helped a little! 
  • @erindippity - oh wow, sleeping would be tough & then with pregnancy on top. Glad to hear the Snoogle has helped a little!
