1. How far along are you? 17 weeks 2. How big is baby? Pomegranate 3. Any upcoming appointments this week? I had a check-up on Friday. We also did the Progenity test the same day.
4. Any new symptoms? My nausea & morning sickness have let up (*knocks on wood*). Dealing with headaches & fatigue.
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? I'm excited that we finally have another genetic test, and hoping they are able to process it this time.
6. GTKY: What is your astrological sign? I'm a Leo. We have 3 family birthdays & our wedding anniversary the first week of August. Ugh.
1. How far along are you? 20 weeks 2. How big is baby? the size of an axolotl (oh, Ovia) 3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Nope, had my a/s this past week and everything looked good
4. Any new symptoms? heartburn, and then I do something like drink coffee or have tomato soup and make it worse
5. Rants/ Raves/Questions? My right hip has been acting up lately. I feel very old lady.
6. GTKY: What is your astrological sign? Capricorn. No one ever brags about being a Capricorn. Is that a Capricorn thing? I'm not especially proud of being a fish-goat.
@PinkPrincessPiper Thank you!! I spent my *entire* day at the laundromat.. with no cell service! Thank goodness for my kindle. I sat down after I got the laundry put away and realized it was Sunday. My bad. Buut this way we get an interesting GTKY!
1. How far along are you? 20 weeks! 2. How big is baby? a single banana 3. Any upcoming appointments this week? this Thursday we have our anatomy scan!
4. Any new symptoms? I feel baby more, is that a symptom?
5. Rants:Germany sprung forward last night so I've been off all day today. I know it's just an hour but it's messing with my entire day.
6. GTKY: What is your astrological sign? Libra. I'm not sure it's fitting.. I'm not balanced at all lol
1. How far along are you? 20 weeks! 2. How big is baby? Paper Airplane
3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Wednesday is our A/S, so we're very excited
4. Any new symptoms? My stomach never settles. It's always grumbling or cramping or mildly nauseous. My feet also tingle a lot.
5. Rants/ Raves/Questions? I'm feeling pretty miserable, because I have trouble getting comfortable and I wake up to pee probably 3 times a night. So, I'm not sleeping well at all.
6. GTKY: What is your astrological sign? @SpotConlon I'm a Capricorn as well. And I'm with ya on your feelings towards being one. Although, I think for me it's because the descriptions are always about Capricorns being cold, ambitious and extremely logical and not led by their feelings. But, as I've I read more over the years things make a little more sense. A guy at work asked me if I was Capricorn the other day, because I "find the humor in almost anything and love memes." I kept trying to figure out how that screamed Capricorn, but it's true and was the first description I've liked of the sign lol
2. How big is baby? Artichoke 3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Yes! I meet with one of the midwives this week and have a list of things to ask her
4. Any new symptoms? I'm also newly dealing with heartburn this week @SpotConlon and also stupidly keep eating foods that trigger it like pasta sauce or Taco Bell. Just discovered today that crouching is really exasperating it, hard to avoid crouching when you spend the entire day painting.
5. Rants/ Raves/Questions? I found the best respirator mask to wear when painting. You can't smell anything when it's on. In case anyone needs it, it's the 3M 6000 face mask paired with the 60926 filter. I bought mine at Amazon but they are also at Home Depot.
My husband got to feel his first kick! He was really pleased
6. GTKY: What is your astrological sign? Gemini. I am such a Gemini.

1. How far along are you? 20 weeks 2. How big is baby? Paper airplane 3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Anatomy scan Thursday!
4. Any new symptoms? Apparently pregnancy can throw your allergies WAY out of wack. I came down with an extremely itchy rash all over my face and body Friday night. Thankfully I was with a friend who was a nurse practitioner who gave me some initial direction followed up by a call to my sister in law who is an allergist. But geeze that was the worst thing! Rash kept coming back all weekend as soon as the Benadryl wore off. All I can think is that I didn't take my Claritin Friday.
5. Rants/ Raves/Questions? I am so done with being moody.
6. GTKY: What is your astrological sign? Taurus and I am painfully stubborn
1. How far along are you? 18 weeks. 2. How big is baby? Artichoke. 3. Any upcoming appointments this week? No. 4. Any new symptoms? Nothing really new although I've had some discomfort running from my tailbone down part of my leg, which is likely from running outside this weekend. It's mostly gone, but it's frustrating to have aches and pains from exercising. 5. Rants/ Raves/Questions? I don't feel as much movement as I had, which of course makes me nervous. I assume this is because the placenta is at the top and the baby may now be in a position where the placenta is acting as a cushion. I usually feel at least something towards the evening, but I'm anxious to start feeling stronger movement and feeling it more often. 6. GTKY: What is your astrological sign? Gemini.
@MetsGirl18 I had about 5 days of really feeling increasing movement/kicks followed by two very slow movement days. It did kick in my worry nerves, so I understand where you're coming from.
I told myself that things are shifting around in there so the previous day is no guarantee that is how things are going to be today. and even when he's out here will be days where he's going to be more mellow (please let there be calmer days). It helped to ease my mind a bit.
