Re: Friday Ticker Change

  • 1. How far along are you? 25wks!

    2. How big is baby? Size of a wide-brimmed fedora

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Hospital baby class/tour on Sunday!

    4.  Any new symptoms? Just lots more movement so a little more back ache/general achy.

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions?

    6. GTKY: What food can you not stand and has it changed while pregnant? I hate rare burgers. My DH will eat a burger almost cold-I hate it. Still hate it while pregnant, which my DH was a little disappointed by. His mom loved rare burgers when she was pregnant so he was all excited. Not this mama! It better be hot through and better when topped with cheese.

    1. How far along are you? 24 weeks. Holy crap. 

    2. How big is baby? Cantaloupe

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Nope

    4.  Any new symptoms? Back and leg pain are getting worse 

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? I have major cabin fever and it's gorgeous out, but being pregnant with a toddler is not super conducive to outings. 

    6. GTKY: What food can you not stand and has it changed while pregnant? Nothing really. With my first I developed an obsession with watermelon which never went away. 
  • @SouthernMama15 if I couldn't get outside much this pregnancy, I'd go nuts!  DD (3 in June) loves being outside too. Why doesn't it work for you?

  • @bumpybump We have a very small yard very close to the road. We live in the cul de sac and people come flying down our road to turn around. To get good playtime we have to go to the park and DS has become a pain about getting in and out of the car. Add my knee injury and it's a hot mess.

    1. How far along are you? 24 weeks 

    2. How big is baby? Cantaloupe 

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Had one this morning, scheduled my glucose test for the 15th of May
  • For some reason the bump keeps cutting me off...3 times the charm hopefully! 

    4.  Any new symptoms? Nothing new, tailbone, back and hip pain are still going strong. 

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? We said bye bye to my DDs binky this week. Going better than expected, she's just sleeping less at night (takes longer to fall asleep and wakes up earlier). Hopefully she will adjust back to her normal 12 hrs of sleep because it's not been great for her mood.

    6. GTKY: What food can you not stand and has it changed while pregnant?

    Despise mayo and miracle whip- has gotten worse with pregnancy. Also I've never been a huge fan of Mac and Cheese, I flat out can't stand it during pregnancy. 
  • @JCPSand2B -- can't stand mac & cheese?!?! i mean... i guess i could see it... kind of.... but not really. haha 

    1. How far along are you? 23 weeks

    2. How big is baby? bunch of grapes or something like that 

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? had one this week - they are so quick. i swear i'm in there for 5 minutes and get an "everything looks good, smooth healthy pregnancy. see you next appt" -- which, hey, i'll take it! but i feel like we should be going over things in more depth?

    4.  Any new symptoms? nope

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions?.... at this stage are you accentuating the bump or still blending it in? I am super excited about baby and to be past the halfway mark, but i still have a weird feeling about wearing clothes that really put the bump out there... don't know why that is. 

    6. GTKY: What food can you not stand and has it changed while pregnant?
    during the nauseous weeks 6-10 i could not stand decadent sweets/desserts/etc... which really helped curb the normal holiday binge! but that has since passed and i'm back to my regular nightly ice cream dessert, and 2 large slices of carrot cake at Easter. still kind of off-put by chicken and eggs though 
  • @em1017 I know, I'm weird. Especially since I love cheese and I love pasta. I'm always making it because my family loves homemade Mac and cheese. It's just never been something I look forward to eating. The only place I really love the Mac and Cheese from is our local fancy movie theater where you can order meals, desserts and booze to come to your table. 
  • 1. How far along are you? 22 weeks

    2. How big is baby? Coconut?

    3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Just my weekly progesterone shots on Mondays

    4.  Any new symptoms? Heartburn has returned with a vengeance. Otherwise, same old same old

    5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? 

    6. GTKY: What food can you not stand and has it changed while pregnant? The idea of cookie dough makes me want to puke, especially edible cookie dough. I had some around 4 weeks pregnant and ever since then it makes me want to majorly vomit just thinking about.
