6) Rants/Raves/Questions?
7) GTKY: What is your favorite childrens book? Either yours as a child or for LO!
I loved Where The Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein when I was a kid. I know it's poems but it my imagination run wild! For DD, I loved The Belly Button Book!

2) How big is baby?
Banana
3) Team blue, pink or green?
Pink
4) How are you feeling?
Been having lots of lower back pain and kinda painful braxton hicks. It's not comfortable at all. And i cant sleep through the night.. i fall asleep at midnight, wake up at 2am, can't get back to sleep till 5-6am and then get woken up by DS between 8-9am. And when I do sleep, it's never deep. It feels like I'm awake when I'm asleep...if that makes sense. I think I'm turning into a zombie.
5) Any appointments this week?
Nope
6) Rants/Raves/Questions?
I've been at the hospital with my friend since yesterday. She had her baby this morning after a 45 hour labor! Totally reminded me of how much I'm not looking forward to going through child birth again.
7) GTKY: What is your favorite childrens book? Either yours as a child or for LO!
My favorite as a kid was the giving tree by shel silverstein. But I also absolutely love the classic fairy tales and will be pushing those heavily on my kids.

I'm sorry you're having such a hard time sleeping. It's so difficukt to "mom" on such little sleep. I hope it gets better for both of us!
23 Weeks
2) How big is baby?
Grapefruit
3) Team blue, pink or green?

Round to of my anatomy scan so we can measure the rest of this gal! I hope she cooperates.

20 Weeks
2) How big is baby?
Banana
3) Team blue, pink or green?
Pink
4) How are you feeling?
Pretty good. Wish I had more patience with the husband but maybe I can't blame that on hormones.
5) Any appointments this week?
A/s tomorrow
6) Rants/Raves/Questions?
Can't wait for DH and DD to feel movement.
7) GTKY: What is your favorite childrens book? Either yours as a child or for LO!
Does Harry Potter count? I also really liked Wacky Wednesday and Monster at the End of this Book.
@spark88 it's the best with DH and DD finally feel LO on the outside! I hope it happens for you soon!
2) How big is baby? Grapefruit (someone please direct me to grapefruits that are 11.3inches in diameter pls)
3) Team blue, pink or green? Blue
4) How are you feeling? Great! A bit perplexed that the baby can already reach my ribs and make my boobs bounce w his kicks tho. My other two pregnancies were waaay more mellow for sure!
5) Any appointments this week? Not til next week
6) Rants/Raves/Questions? So I've royally failed the 1hr glucose test my previous two pregnancies. Should I suck it up and go straight for the 3hour or try the 1hr once more?

22 weeks!
2) How big is baby?
Coconut (TB) or Nalgene water bottle (Ovia)
3) Team blue, pink or green?
Team pink!
4) How are you feeling?
Pretty good most of the time. I have moments when I feel huge, like there's not enough room in my body... which is unfortunate because I know most of the growing is still to come.
5) Any appointments this week?
Nope, not till next Friday.
6) Rants/Raves/Questions?
Nope. I really want us to settle on a name, but I also know that H does not work quickly on decisions like this.
7) GTKY: What is your favorite childrens book? Either yours as a child or for LO!
Definitely The Giving Tree, but I love reading in general and I can't wait to read all our favorite books with this little one and her future sibling(s).
1) How many weeks? 22 weeks
2) How big is baby? Papaya
3) Team blue, pink or green? Pink
4) How are you feeling? So I must of overstretched during the one prenatal yoga class I went to a couple of weeks ago because now on the weekend after chasing my toddler around I get the worse sciatic pain down my right butt cheek and leg. Other than that, I’m doing pretty good right now.
5) Any appointments this week? Yes! Meet with my OB on Friday…looking forward to hearing baby girls heartbeat.
6) Rants/Raves/Questions? Anyone using prenatal probiotics? I took probiotics for awhile and someone brought them up at my work last week and got me thinking it might be good to look into taking a prenatal version.
7) GTKY: What is your favorite childrens book? Either yours as a child or for LO! Good Night Moon was always one of my favorites and that’s LO’s favorite right now (it changes every couple of weeks). I loved The Giving Tree too…such a special book.
HEY! I dunno about you, but I'm feelin' 22! (Sorry y'all, I've been dying to say that)

Good, hormonal, but good!

5) Any appointments this week? Nope
6) Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm excited that I am starting to actually look pregnant!
7) GTKY: What is your favorite children's book? Either yours as a child or for LO! Oh man, there are so many wonderful children's books. I love "the Giving Tree" that someone mentioned earlier. I always loved "Are You My Mother?" and "Love You Forever" is another great one.

3) Team blue, pink or green? Found out last Friday we're team pink!
4) How are you feeling? Good! Apparently I'm already having BH contractions, and I was not expecting that to be a "thing" for a few more weeks... Lol
5) Any appointments this week? Appt was yesterday, now we don't go back until July 7th. But we'll have AS #2 after that appt to get a few more pictures when she can't hide as much. Haha
6) Rants/Raves/Questions? I would like to sleep through the night without waking from needing to pee, bein uncomfortable, or being unable to turn over like "normal". -.-
7) GTKY: What is your favorite childrens book? Either yours as a child or for LO! I just love all books!
@marousse That is so rude! I am a petty Betty and would have put even more in my cart while the manager watched.
