  • 1. How far along are you? 19 weeks 

    2. How big is baby? gameboy - the old school grey version 

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? no :'( not for another 2.5 weeks 

    4.  Any new symptoms? walking up stairs is now becoming difficult. My legs hit my bump with every step. 

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? I started getting back into running during the second trimester and my mile time is back in what I consider a normal range! Wooohoo :) 

    6. GTKY: it's April 1st! What is your favorite April Fool's Day prank that you've seen, heard about, done?  I hate April Fools Day. ********possible TW******** Especially with all of the fake pregnancy posts. Sorry...not sorry. I called out Shawn Johnson on Instagram for posting a fake pregnancy and have been getting backlash from teenagers and I couldn't care less. If you post a fake pregnancy announcement on social media on April 1st, you are a giant Ahole and deserve all the hate in the world for it.

  • 1. How far along are you? 19 weeks 

    2. How big is baby? Mango!

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? We also have our AS on Thursday @sgrant432

    4.  Any new symptoms? More back aches recently. Starting to also feel tons of kicks and movement which is so amazing! 

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? Rant/Rave- my boobs are out of control which is fun/annoying because none of my bras really fit anymore. Finally got some new bras today so the ladies are finally strapped in like they should be! 

    6. GTKY: it's April 1st! What is your favorite April Fool's Day prank that you've seen, heard about, done?  I'm not really a prankster so I don't have much to add here. I totally agree with @BlackNYellow in that posting an April Fools about being pregnant is awful. Some things you just don't joke around about and that's definitely one of them.

    6. GTKY: it's April 1st! What is your favorite April Fool's Day prank that you've seen, heard about, done? 
    Not really my holiday.  Not opposed to it but most of the time it doesn't even cross my mind.

  • For mamas with due dates of August 5, 12, 19, and 26

    1. How far along are you?
    20 weeks, half way there!
    2. How big is baby?
    A banana
    3. Any upcoming appointments this week?
    Not for a few weeks
    4.  Any new symptoms?
    I'm getting more frequent heartburn. Not sure if that is from the baby or poor food choices. I am going to guess a combination of both. 
    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions?
    Rants: If I could sleep through the night that would be amazing. I only have a few months left to do so and my body won't cooperate. Also, people asking if the baby was planned. What!? Why is that a question. I don't get it
    Rave: It's supposed to be 55 and sunny tomorrow!
    6. GTKY: it's April 1st! What is your favorite April Fool's Day prank that you've seen, heard about, done?
    Someone gave me a fake scratch ticket that was a $10,000 winner. I did not like that.

  • 1. How far along are you?
    20 weeks. Half way through!

    2. How big is baby?
    as big as a Banana. Yesterday it was estimated at 11 oz. at the A/S. 

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week?
    nope. Had the A/S yesterday 

    4.  Any new symptoms?
    no symptoms actually. 

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions?
    Rave: everything looked great on the A/S (although the tech always gives the disclaimer that she's not the doctor) and we find out the sex tomorrow. It was supposed to be today, but weather and our photographer got sick. I can wait another 24 hrs, no biggie lol

    6. GTKY: it's April 1st! What is your favorite April Fool's Day prank that you've seen, heard about, done? 
    I'm not big on April fools. I was when my brothers and I were growing up. This is by far one of my favorite pranks I've heard of because of all the planning that had to have gone into it. https://hoaxes.org/af_database/permalink/the_eruption_of_mount_edgecumbe/
  • 1. How far along are you? 20 weeks

    2. How big is baby? Banana

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? None

    4.  Any new symptoms? I have decent energy during the day and not eating my face off - I feel somewhat like a normal human!

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? I ran a half marathon today, because it's one of my favorite courses and i was exactly half-baked! It was 37 degrees, downpouring and 25mph wind along the ocean. Only 99 people showed up. My time was 25 minutes slower than the prior year, but I still felt hardcore!

    I am a quant so we have fun with computers, like re-wiring which monitor is connected to which keyboard and putting tape over the mouse laser. Occasionally we put colored paper in the printers when we are feeling really crazy.

  • @donehue, you are incredible for being able to run a half marathon ever, let alone when you are nearly 5 months pregnant! You go girl!
    @BlackNYellow, totally agree that the fake pregnancy announcements are awful and heartless.
    1. How far along are you? 21 weeks

    2. How big is baby? Endive... wtf even is that?

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Anatomy scan is Monday... starting to feel super anxious about it.

    4.  Any new symptoms?  Tons of round ligament pain and hip pain.  My lower back is starting to hurt also.... doesn't help that my 30lb toddler is cranky and insists constantly that mommy has to carry him.

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? 
    Excited to try my new instant pot tomorrow!

    6. GTKY: it's April 1st! What is your favorite April Fool's Day prank that you've seen, heard about, done? 
    I hate April Fool's lol.

  • @mrsjqg1024 yay!  Good luck!

    @kristenk727 yes - my 30lb toddler is doing the same!  I try to pass him off to DH and he goes for like 2 seconds then whines for me again. On a cute note, he has noticed my bump and now points and says baby, sometimes baby bru-da :)
