I felt some outside kicks for the first time a couple of days ago. Of course it was in the middle of the night so no one else felt them. I'm looking forward to seeing my kids' reactions when they start feeling the kicks.

We're going to FIL's house. I assume they'll do an egg hunt and we plan to spend a lot of time outside since it should be warm.
23 weeks- Chinchilla
Upcoming appointments?
Next Monday
Symptoms?
I started having terrible muscle spasms in my neck. With my previous neck injury it's not wildly unheard of, but this is the first time I haven't been able to take a muscle relaxer. It's been very painful, and it's been kinda scary. It's felt like I just took my neck brace off all over again. but I went to a massage therapist yesterday on my lunch break and it helped a lot. I just unfortunately can't take time off yet because of the holiday weekend and we are short staffed at both my jobs.
Cravings?
Nada thing.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I don't feel her very often and it kinda bums me out. I know that everyone is different and every baby is different, but even the times I've felt her, I could have easily missed it as gas or something else.

Rants/Raves/Questions?
Unexpected & unannounced guests came to our home yesterday and my mom let them in without asking me. My mom came over to pick me & my DS up to go out for the day and while changing DS upstairs she tells me people from church (Deacon & Minister, and others) are at the door to visit us. I told her we are about to leave the house and to tell them to call first before showing up to my door. No my crazy mom lets them in! I told her in front of them all to "never open the door to our home esp if someone doesn't call or asks permission from me or my husband." Well they got to hear how I truly felt & I called my mom out for not listening to me. Ugh the nerve of these people!

I went to Pure Barre this morning and we had family brunch afterwards. Was planning to do an Easter egg hunt for my 2yo DS but he knocked out for a nap, hope to get to the neighborhood pool later this afternoon.
Upcoming appointments? not until next month
Symptoms? most of my hip and back pain is gone (...for now), so I'm mostly hungry. And snoring loudly.
Cravings? Ice cream and mocha flavored everything
Rants/Raves/Questions? I have a hard time answering "how many months are you?" because apparently I can't convert weeks to months in my head.
GTKY: Any Easter plans? What is your favorite Easter candy? I went to mass with my in-laws, which is always an adventure because I grew up Mormon, so all the up-down, call-and-response is confusing. We went to dim sum afterward and now I'm planning on relaxing with my dogs. My favorite Easter candy is any combination of chocolate and peanut butter, except I don't have any candy this year.

Supposed to have one Friday. I need to reschedule.

Oh, the heartburn. It's fierce. Also, TMI, constipation like a mofo. It's terrible!
Cravings?
I didn't think I had any, but I'm realizing I want a lot of high-fat food. Anything buttery or creamy, I'm all about it! I think I need to up my Omega 3 intake.

People keep asking me if I'm going to have a baby shower, as if that's my decision. Lol! I can't host my own! This is our 3rd, and I have NO idea what the "rules" are for a 3rd baby regarding a shower. If someone offers to host, I'll make a registry, but I just think it's funny that everyone asks me...totally not my decision!

The usual! Spent the day with family. Cooking out, egg-hunting. I didn't have to cook so that was nice! :-) Reese's eggs are my fav!
21 Weeks. A week ago he was measuring 12 oz... I'm hoping that by next week he'll be over a pound. That's one of my big mental milestones, having him get to be a pound.
Upcoming appointments?
Not until the end of the month
Symptoms?
Bitchy attitude sneaks up on me if I'm hungry. I notice that I don't have as strong of my usual hunger cues right now so suddenly I'm just bitching away. Makes me feel like a snicker commercial. I also get a killer headache if I wait too long to eat.
Heartburn from most cooked tomato products is starting to happen. I've given up on pasta sauce already, but am starting to think that maybe ketchup is going to have to go. Anyone know if I'll be able to have fresh tomatoes? I'll be so sad to
miss out on them this summer.
Cravings?
Nothing at the moment.

My sister brought two huge bags of maternity clothes to Passover for me. She was able to score them all at a local thrift store for $10! Some things didn't fit or aren't my style, but there were some really good options in there. She also had a Destination Maternity gift card for me that's she's been saving since her last pregnancy. I love my sister

We went to our new -but not moved in yet - house and had a nice lunch with my husband's family. It was a casual time together and lovely after the family drama resolved itself.
Together: January 2002
Married: May 2008

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