1) how far along are you? EDD? 18w6d. Sept 25

2) any appointments this week? None this week.

3) how are you feeling? Any raves, concerns, or gripes? Tired but okay. Starting to feel the baby move so that is nice and reassuring. Only gripe is the hip pain I have at night that wakes me up and makes me have to readjust every couple of hours. Suggestions of how to help this are welcomed.

GTKY: Where i lives we have been getting a ton of rain so.....what is your favorite thing to do on a rainy weekend? I love being able to be lazy and watch a movie or read a book. I also like naps when it rains. The noise is very soothing.

1) how far along are you? EDD? 22w2d; due 9/1

2) any appointments this week? None this week.

3) how are you feeling? Any raves, concerns, or gripes? I am happy that as of my appointment this past Thursday, my cervical length has stayed stable for 3 weeks. I'll get checked again in two more weeks.

GTKY: Where i lives we have been getting a ton of rain so.....what is your favorite thing to do on a rainy weekend? I like to either bake something or watch tv and knit.

@rhubarb7216 that is awesome that you had good news at your appointment.

IsItTacoTuesday · April 2017

Yay for great news @Rhubarb7216, but boo for hip pain @Hopefulmommy1980

1) how far along are you? EDD? 21+2 9/8

2) any appointments this week? OB May 11 and MFM May 16

3) how are you feeling? Any raves, concerns, or gripes? The fibroid has degenerated, so only tenderness when I touch the lower right part of my belly, and crampy pains that are very tolerable when I'm on my feet awhile...so I'm feeling wonderful!!! I have a bit of energy back, and either hormones stabilized or my daith piercing knocked out migraines. Very hopeful that I'll be able to enjoy this time of my life for a bit!

Ditto on all so far, movie, nap, hot cocoa, crochet, just relaxing.

@isittacotuesday I am glad your pain is less and that you are feeling better and having more energy. Do you like your faith piercing. I am seriously considering getting it after I have lo. What do you see as the pros and cons? I have had migraines since I was 18.

22+2 / Sept 2

2) any appointments this week?
Friday with my OB, ultrasound next monday

3) how are you feeling? Any raves, concerns, or gripes?
my side back is killing. it's so bizarre. i got it with my 1st pregnancy and not so much with the others. It makes sitting hard and uncomfortable and also standing. it hurts constantly and puts me in a grouchy mood. if not for this, i could deal with the reflux and crotch pain.

It's been raining tons here too. @Hopefulmommy1980 I, too, love sleeping to rain. I also have a cd of rain I listen to at night when it's not raining.

We usually read books together or play games on a rainy day.

@Hopefulmommy1980 Does your hip hurt after sleeping in the same position all night? That is killing me, but I sadly have no ideas of how to make it better.

1) how far along are you? EDD? 21 + 6/Sept 5

2) any appointments this week? I has my a/s on Friday, so I'm all set for another month.

3) how are you feeling? Any raves, concerns, or gripes? I feel pretty good. I also have the night-time hip pain, some stomach aches, and I get tired pretty easily, but I'm otherwise doing well. I'm trying to enjoy trimester 2 while I can.

GTKY: Where i lives we have been getting a ton of rain so.....what is your favorite thing to do on a rainy weekend? Probably binge-watching TV shows and hanging out with my dog. (He hates rain, so we usually have extra bonding time.)

Read, lounge, nap, eat, cook, watch tv, chat with friends...but this time of year I am often busy on weekends with my 2nd jobs so not as much time for rainy weekends. Ps. Where I am snowed this past week.

@Hopefulmommy1980 I'm not sure if my hormones leveled off or if this piercing is some sort of miracle cure, but I was desperate and it's definitely a 'do no harm' option for migraines. I figured if I was going to rely on peppermint oil and my migraine support oil from Rocky Mountain Oils while my migraine meds were majorly limited because of pregnancy, I may as well give it a shot. Pros: it may well be working; aftercare is simple I was instructed not to touch it and to spray it 2-3 times a day with wound wash, though I also let the shower water wash over it and then wound wash spray it when I'm out of the shower. Cons: I have an uber conservative job...I'm a scientist but in agriculture, so it can look a bit out of place (I don't care much, though!), you aren't supposed to sleep on it and they recommend you get the piercing on the side of your migraines, mine are always right sided and I'm a right sided sleeper...solution is to use a travel pillow so your ear can hang out in the little hole where your neck goes on the plane and that's weird, but after a couple weeks swelling is down (piercing stuck out and now it's flat in my ear) and much less sensitive so may be able to just use my normal pillow. Of course, there is a risk of infection and scaring that the piercer can fill you in on, but a quality establishment and aftercare will minimize that.
