Re: Thursday Ticker Change 7/13

  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 14 weeks - baby is the size of a peach!

    2) How are you feeling? Feeling pretty good! But the heartburn/reflux has started up at night.

    3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing? 
    We don't know yet and I am being sooo impatient to find out! At first I thought for sure a girl because I dreamed of a girl, but last night I dreamed it was a boy! Trying to talk DH into going to get an elective US to find out earlier than 20 weeks. It's also strange because we were team green with DS and I never felt like I HAD to know the way I do now! 
    Yes, I'm showing! But I'm probably the only one who can tell right now. It's that awkward in between stage that I didn't hit until about 18-20 weeks with DS! 

    4) Any appointments this week/last? No

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions? Just thinking about buying some compression stockings because I have a pretty unsightly varicose vein (made its appearance during first pregnancy)  that I'm becoming more and more self conscious about. Anyone have any recommendations? 

    6) GTKY: What were you like in high school? I was the quiet shy girl in high school, but once you got to know me my personality came out! Many thought I was snobby but I was just really shy!! Not so much anymore lol. I played softball most of my childhood through high school, did color guard in marching band (flag twirling :D ), and also a year of soccer.

    I was quiet and shy...never really knew where I fit in, but I had a great group of friends I hung out with and we always at at the same table in the school atrium.

  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
    14 weeks today, baby is the size of a lemon!

    2) How are you feeling?
    I'm still feeling pretty great!  The exhaustion from the last few weeks has subsided- so that's a relief!

    3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing?
    We are not finding out the sex! But I have the results in an email (from Counsyl test) and it's hard to know it's there but I can't look!!!  Definitely showing. Will switch to maternity clothes very soon!

    4) Any appointments this week/last?
    I see the high-risk doctors tomorrow  for the first time - for ultrasound and appointment.  High risk due to AMA, hx of leep and hx of preterm labor with DS.

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    A few days ago a friend dropped off some of her old maternity clothes.  It's SO nice to have all that with less to buy!  I'm ready to start wearing it too- regular work pants are getting really uncomfortable and maternity shirts are just more flattering on a bump!

    6) GTKY: What were you like in high school? 
    It's been so long, I don't remember!  I'm from a small school with 22 in my graduating class.  We weren't cliche-y, everyone got along and we were all friends (for the most part!)   I chose cheerleading and baton twirling over sports.

  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
    Baby is 14w today (according to GA at last ultrasound), which matches up exactly with my LMP, but my EDD the OB gave me is 1/17 which would make me 13w1d. Baby is the size of an original 1977 Star Wars action figure Haha
    2) How are you feeling?
    The past two days i haven't even felt pregnant anymore. I feel almost completely back to normal. It's kinda freaking me out to be honest...
    3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing?
    Team Green for us! Pants are a bit snug, but that's about it.
    4) Any appointments this week/last?
    Next Thursday, I believe it's just a Doppler appointment but it'll be good to be reassured with a heartbeat that everything is okay.
    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    I'm just so confused by baby's GA vs. my EDD, which one would you guys go with? To me, it seems like a pretty big difference (almost a week). And the baby is growing equal to my original EDD (calculated by LMP) which is 1/11. I feel like every time i go in for an appointment my due date changes  :|
    6) GTKY: What were you like in high school? 
    I went to an all-girls Catholic high school, which was pretty small and for the most part everyone got along with each other. I was a theater dork (backstage only though), no sports (yuck), and took my fair share of honors and AP classes. I really enjoyed high school actually :smile:
  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby?
    13 weeks! The size of a pea pod.
    2) How are you feeling?
    Pretty good! Random episodes of nausea, gagging, and fatigue, but not nearly as bad as they have been.
    3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing?
    Nope, we're Team Green! Though I have my Panorama results in an envelope at home, and it's super tempting sometimes to open it.
    I've been showing for a while, but I still think a lot of it is bloat and just... well, me. I've been in comfy maternity clothes since 8 weeks.
    4) Any appointments this week/last?
    I had my 12 week appointment this past Friday. Heard the heartbeat at 170bpm! My 16 week appointment is on August 2nd.
    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Nah.
    6) GTKY: What were you like in high school?
    Quiet most of the time, but outgoing with my close group of friends. I did track and field for two years, but my real passion was in theater and the Drama Club.

  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
    14 weeks, size of a troll doll! 

    2) How are you feeling?
    good, have some energy back, but I seem to have traded nausea for headaches

    3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing?
    team green as well. I'm showing lots of bloat, not bad in the morning but I feel huge at night!

    4) Any appointments this week/last?
    nooe just waiting for one next week to get more blood results

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    so happy to have my appetite back! 

    6) GTKY: What were you like in high school? 
    the dorky/geeky kid that hung out with my small group of friends but was secretly a super hard worker
  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby?  12 weeks, the babies are each the size of a plum!

    2) How are you feeling? The bad nausea seems to be ending/slowing down, but i still have a queasy feeling most of the time. Fatigue is still here and it seems that headaches are becoming a bit more frequent.

    3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing?
    We do! We're having boy/girl twins! I think I've started showing, but it's still 99% bloat. But it looks like I'm pregnant...at least to DH and me...

    4) Any appointments this week/last? We have our NT scan on Monday! Can't wait to see how much they've grown since we saw them last (week 10). At that appointment they took blood for the Maternity21 test. Got the portal results that it came back negative, so, yay!

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions? i'm so happy that the nausea (knock on wood!) is starting to go away! And that i've been able to actually eat full meals and "new" foods other than icy pops/popsicles/pasta/fruit and start regaining the weight that i lost this trimester... 

    6) GTKY: What were you like in high school? Looking back, my "core" group of friends were really "friends on convenience" (living on the same block/our moms were friends, etc). These friends were anti-conformity and snarky and stuck together (think of Daria from the cartoon, and I was a more like a quiet version of Quinn :lol:) but I moved between the "groups" at school. I was in band, I played varsity soccer and softball, was in student government. I was quiet/shy but got along with most people.
