Re: Saturday Ticker Change 4/8
1. How far along are you? 20 weeks. Halfway there!!
2. How big is baby? Mango
3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Had my A/S Thursday and everything looked good of what they could see. Baby Boy wouldn't cooperate fully and there were 3 images they couldn't get. So I get to have another US next appointment and see my boy again!
4. Any new symptoms? Nope!
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? I don't know if this is a rant or a rave but this child has the longest legs! DH and I noticed it on a previous US and I mentioned it to the US tech this past week and she said she noticed but wasn't going to say anything but I brought it up and she said he has really big hands and long legs! Basketball here we come! She got the cutest picture of his legs
6. GTKY: Spring is here! What's your favorite part about spring? Planting flowers! Our botanical gardens has an huge annual plant sale and I went for the first time this week and got some things. I am heading out in a bit to pick up more flowers and hope to plant some today while LO naps!!

Nope!
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions?
Rant: I went looking for a dress for my grad school graduation and I burst into tears while in the dressing room. I'm having a really hard time seeing my body change. And I'm still carrying very low so it just looks like I have a gut. I love being pregnant, but am having a harder time with this than I thought.
Rave: Only a few more weeks til graduation
6. GTKY: Spring is here! What's your favorite part about spring?
Being outside more! And just enjoying the sun, it makes such a difference in my mood some days
1. How far along are you? 20 weeks!
2. How big is baby? Banana
3. Any upcoming appointments this week? We had our AS this past Thursday and it was so great to see the baby again! Moving around like crazy and everything was looking healthy. We had the ultrasound tech write down the sex and put it in an envelope for us. We opened it together when we got home and we're so excited to find out that we're having a boy! It was such a special moment
4. Any new symptoms? Starting to get some heartburn/acid reflux. Started a few days ago. Hoping that it's not an everyday occurrence. Baby is also moving around a ton and you can even start to see my belly move. DH has felt him a few times but he always seems to stop moving when there's an audience.
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? We finally went and registered yesterday! It was fun to get to pick out cute stuff and it's nice that we can finally check that off the to-do list. It was a long morning though and I was wiped by the time we were done.
6. GTKY: Spring is here! What's your favorite part about spring? Just being outside. We have all the windows in the house open right now too and I love to finally get in the fresh air after everything being so stuffy after winter. Love watching all the trees and flowers bloom as well!

a lemon
3. Any upcoming appointments this week?
no
4. Any new symptoms?
Every time I eat I feel nauseous. I hope it is just a side effect of the bad cold I have.
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions?
DS and DH have both been able to feel the baby move this week.

We had 8 in of snow this weekend it is not feeling very spring like here.
2. How big is baby? Endive
3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Yes, midwife tomorrow
4. Any new symptoms? No
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? Why do I always seem to carry heavy furniture and paint rooms when I'm pregnant? Now that we are on round 3 it feels like deja vu seeing how much I can actually carry downstairs with a bump. I was carrying my 42lb 4 year old around Boston yesterday and only lasted like 5 minutes before I felt strange things in my abdomen.
6. GTKY: Spring is here! What's your favorite part about spring?
Kids playing outside. Now if only DH would watch them so I could put my feet up in my house that hasn't been destroyed by stir crazy children!

Been battling a cold all week. Blah. Other than that, just so much freaking discharge. Will this ever end?! I don't remember it being bad with my first. Feeling lots of movement lately... my favorite feeling ever!
