3) How are you feeling? Tired, but pretty good. I'm starting to pop and my work pants no longer fit comfortably, and I can't sleep well in any position.
4) Any appointments or tests this week? None; I had bloodwork to check my thyroid levels which came back fine.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? Rave: H and I are doing a weekend away this weekend and even though it's going to rain all weekend, I am so looking forward to getting out of town. I need a change of scenery!
6)
GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance
song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO? Our first dance song was Come Away with Me by Norah Jones.
3) How are you feeling? Really good! It's an awesome change of pace from those first 15 weeks
4) Any appointments or tests this week? I had my appointment on Wednesday for early GD test + basic doppler/weigh in / pee in a cup. Everything is lookin good. Baby's heartrate was 150.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? I got nothing!
6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO? "Everlasting Light" by the Black Keys ... My favorite
4) Any appointments or tests this week? nada til the 17th of May (torture)
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? RANT SIL and BIL are going to MEXICO again (just went in sept, and KC in Jan sans kids... So i get their kids for mothers day.) It is just annoying that they book, then ask us. I doubt they even know it is Mother's Day and I am sure SIL will be upset.
6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO?
We danced to "Making Memories of us" by Keith Urban.
3) physically I'm feeling good. It's been a rough week emotionally and I had a migraine early in the week for a few days.
4) I had a regular ob apt today. Pretty depressing to talk about possivilitsbof what may be to come, but I did have a quick US and baby is doing well in there as of now.
5) Rant is that I'm just wishing these next few weeks can go by quickly and I'll get good results from my amnio.
3) How are you feeling? Ok, still nauseous from time to time and some cramping
4) Any appointments or tests this week? I had one yesterday and finally got to hear baby's heartbeat which was great I was so nervous and it helped me feel better knowing baby is doing well.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? It just seems like pregnancy is taking forever sometimes I just can't wait to meet my baby and feel less worried something bad will happen.
6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO? Can't help falling in love Elvis singing it version.
3) How are you feeling? I'm having some weird dreams and having to pee a lot. I'm also really anxious about telling my boss. Since I'm not really showing yet, I keep postponing.
4) Any appointments or tests this week? None till May 11
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? Not much, except for family that keep posting congratulations on Facebook. I guess I should have warned people not to post yet (don't want my boss to see), but I feel like it goes without saying.
6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO? I'm Yours by Jason Mraz
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? My sister's MIL is a piece of work. My sister is kind of sensitive so she really feels things deeply and I hate the way she's being treated. To make a long story short, her MIL is the "matriarch" type and is currently pitching a fit and turning something small into something huge.
6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO? We don't have one. He was too bashful to have a first dance at our wedding. IF he had agreed it would have been A Thousand Years by Christina Perri
Me: 29 DH: 32 Married 9/27/2014 TTC Since 1/1/2017 BFP: 2/6/2017 Due Date: 10/13/17
@feeislove Sorry about your sister's pain-in-the-butt MIL. I hope she backs off soon.
@Ka++Lo I told my bosses a few weeks ago but at this point, I definitely wouldn't be able to hide it. Hope it goes well!
@Amesie13 Sorry you're still having the nausea - hope you feel better soon! I'm glad your appointment went well, too!
@KDeola I'm sure the waiting is the worst; fx that all goes well with the amnio!
@ladyglittersparkles Ugh to your SIL & BIL - who plans then asks? We're literally going away for one evening and I made sure my sister could check on our dogs way before making any plans.
@Mommaswizz Glad you're feeling good and that you had a great appointment!
I just found out that I'm going to have to change OBs. Mine was diagnosed
with breast cancer earlier this year so I haven't actually seen her
this pregnancy, but I just received a call that she's going to
discontinue seeing OB patients because of her health.
This makes me sad but of course I want what's best for her health.
Luckily, the practice has four other doctors - three of whom I like - so
it should all be fine, as I'm not going to agree to transfer to the one
I don't like. I'll get to see my OB for the AS on 5/15 and then will be
transferred. Still, this is making me an emotional mess.
Aww @laeberge3 that's awful. I'm glad you can stay within the practice though. At my ob we see all the doctors and midwives so we don't have one specifically assigned. @feeislove I LOVE that song!
1) How many weeks are you? 17 2) How big is baby? The size of a pomegranate 3) How are you feeling? I'm feeling great today! Hopefully it stays that way 4) Any appointments or tests this week? No 5) Rants/Raves/Questions? Nome 6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO? We will be playing You by Jesse Powell
2) How big is baby? I just saw this on the app when I logged in but can't remember for the life of me... The size of an orange?
3) How are you feeling? Pretty normal. Had a nasty stomach bug earlier this week after being on vacation for a week, but luckily it was a 24H thing.
4) Any appointments or tests this week? Had an appointment this week. Everything is on track except for my weight gain. Somehow I lost 5 pounds. I swear I eat. I feel like I'm constantly eating, honestly. But I guess I'll have to watch more?
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? We went to Coachella for the 2nd year in a row last year and there we so many babies. Not kids, babies. I think it's great if they can handle the heat of the daytime sets, but the amount of strollers I saw at 10PM was a little worrisome. Also, freaking bloody boogers. I've never had a nosebleed in my life, so I was so freaked out the first time it happens. It's every other day now and so annoying.
6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO?
We don't have a song but Francis and the Lights' Friends has been in constant rotation since we saw him live last week. So song of the moment, I guess.
@mommaswizz yay for a great appointment this week! Glad to hear you are feeling better!
@laeberge3 So sorry to hear about your OB. I hope her health improves and that you find an OB that you click with.
1) How many weeks are you? 15!
2) How big is baby? Either the size of an apple or the size of a large naval orange, depending on the website.
3) How are you feeling? Besides allergies I'm feeling great! I didn't feel pregnant when I got up this morning though, which weirds me out.
4) Any appointments or tests this week? No appointments until 19 weeks.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm just really craving fig and goat cheese pizza! SO bad!!
6) GTKY (stolen from Wednesday ticker change): What was your first dance song at your wedding OR what is "your song" with your SO? It was Wonderful Tonight by Eric Clapton...:)

@laeberge3 have fun on your weekend away! Where you headed to? (And that's rough news about your OB. Hopefully her prognosis is good, and you like the OB that replaces her just as well.) @Mommaswizz glad you're over the hump and feeling good. Hooray for no GD! @ladyglittersparkles I would be so annoyed (and jealous) with BIL n SIL. @KDeola so glad you're feeling well despite the rough week you've had. Hang in there, we're all hoping for the best results for you! @Amesie13 that's great you got to hear the heartbeat! It's such a beautiful sound and so comforting. @Ka++LO good luck with telling your boss. I was so nervous and just ended up blurting it out. @feeislove that sucks your sister's getting such a hard time. She has a good sister to sympathize with her at least though. @beautyundefined that's great that your feeling well. Here's to it staying that way! @folamij headaches (especially migraines) are the worst. Tylenol does nothing in my opinion so hopefully they don't last for you. @kellypetrice I got to go to Coachella years ago and it was one of my favorite experiences. But babies out, in that heat, at 10pm? Wow, that seems like a lot of unresponsible mothers. @chocolateislife go ahead and take that feeling great for granted! And oh my, fig and goat cheese pizza sounds phenomenal right now! @winterecho Yay for good hubbies. Mine just finished up doing dishes for me since I've been avoiding them he last three days.
1) How many weeks are you?... 15 weeks.

6) GTKY?... We don't have one. We're so non-traditional and never had a date dance song. Though we're engaged we haven't gotten married yet, and tbh, we probably won't even do the traditional first dance when we do either. Likely just getting hitched at town hall.
