Re: Thursday Ticker Change 8/17
2) How are you feeling? Actually, I think my MS is FINALLY starting to taper... but I don't want to get ahead of myself lol.
3) Are you showing yet? I think I'm starting to, but it's not that noticeable yet. I'm already fluffy soooo haha.
4) Any appointments this week/last? Not this week, next one is on Monday!
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? actually I'm good right now lol.
6) GTKY: Are you decorating a nursery for LO? What's the theme? I wish we were, but the nursery will also double as our guest room so we'll keep it pretty neutral. I've seen so many cute ideas on pinterest and the Jan18 thread that I'm getting nursery envy though haha!
2) How are you feeling? Excited to have made it to second trimester! Other than that, serious and painful gas!
3) Are you showing yet? Yes definitely. Im actually in maternity pants.
4) Any appointments this week/last? Not until the 31st.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
6) GTKY: Are you decorating a nursery for LO? What's the theme? Still have to build the nursery! Lol Since it will be the alcove off the living room, we're not going to do a theme.

2) How are you feeling? Some days are better than others. I feel more nauseous towards the end of the day. I am not liking the small breakouts on my face!
3) Are you showing yet? Not really, more blump than anything.
4) Any appointments this week/last? Not until September.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm using a pregnancy pillow at night which is amazing! I feel that I am getting more restful sleep, even if I have to take a potty break in the middle of the night. I also bought one pair of maternity jeans and a pair of leggings. They are glorious!
6) GTKY: Are you decorating a nursery for LO? What's the theme? same as @clc515. We live in a 2BR apt, so our guest room will also be a nursery. We are leaving the sofa bed in the guestroom/nursery, so just plan on putting the essentials in that room. We plan on moving to a larger place next year, so don't want to go too crazy on the theme. We are having a boy, so I am leaning towards a blue and gray theme.
Which pillow did you get? I'm thinking I should get one soon but who knew there were so many choices lol.
14+1. Baby is the size of a peach, or my personal favorite this week: a troll doll. Ha!
2) How are you feeling?
I'm feeling good, minus the head cold. I got it a few days ago and it's just now starting to go away.
3) Are you showing yet?
I personally don't feel like I am showing yet.
4) Any appointments this week/last?
Nothing new to report. Waiting on the blood tests to get back and I'm anxious about them!
5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
Still sooo constipated! My OB said I could use Colace up to 3 times daily, but part of me doesn't want to put that extra stuff in my body... It makes me so uncomfortable sometimes.
6) GTKY: Are you decorating a nursery for LO? What's the theme?
No idea about decorating yet! I've toyed with the idea of penguins (they're my favorite animal) or a Disney Littlet Mermaid theme, but nothing is set in stone until we know the sex!
2. Feeling great. No more queasiness, and a little more energy!
3.just looking very chubby
4.my 2nd appointment is next week - we'll announce on social media after that appointment.
5. Nope
6. We are kicking DD out of the nursery and reusing it for this LO. So I will get to decorate her big girl room - most likely in animals. The current nursery is national park themed, and I love it. I worked so hard on it the first time around, so glad we are keeping it.
1) How far along are you? How big is baby?
13 weeks, a lemon
2) How are you feeling?
Still nauseous all the time. On top of the fatigue, it's wearing me down.
3) Are you showing yet?
Not really. I was already fluffy. But I'm going to get maternity clothes this weekend. I'm only able to wear dresses and flowy skirts from my current wardrobe.
4) Any appointments this week/last?
I have an appointment on Monday.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
Nope
6) GTKY: Are you decorating a nursery for LO? What's the theme?
Honestly I haven't given this too much thought. My preteen and teen daughters all have their own rooms. My bedroom is big, so I may just rearrange some furniture for now. Hopefully in the not too distant future, I'll be able to find a house with some land, so really not putting too much thought into decorating. All that said, I really love neutral and light nurseries, but I can't imagine keeping that clean!
2) How are you feeling? Not bad, but getting headaches frequently and for the past few days I've been dead tired and have gone to bed at 8:30.
3) Are you showing yet? Yes, there's a definite little bump there.
4) Any appointments this week/last? No, not until the end of the month.
5) Rants/Raves/Questions? Why am I still so tired?!? I thought second trimester meant more energy!
6) GTKY: Are you decorating a nursery for LO? What's the theme? I'm definitely doing something this time around since we were renovating our house when DS was born and nursery decor was minimal. Since baby will sleep in our room for the first few months, I'm planning on leaving our guest bed in the nursery for that time period and will decorate around that. It was nice for DH to get to sleep in a different room for the first few weeks last time so we both weren't up all night and I think it will be especially important this time so he can get up with DS in the mornings and let me rest. No idea on the theme, but I'll figure it out.
#2 due 2.15.18
1) How far along are you? How big is baby?
14 weeks, peach...which I thought was so cute
2) How are you feeling?
Pretty good actually. I randomly threw up this morning, but the nausea has been almost non existent...usually just the evenings!
3) Are you showing yet?
Yes I definitely am! I haven't started to wear maternity clothes yet but I probably need to. I'm having a hard time fitting into most of my clothes at this point.
4) Any appointments this week/last?
I had an appt yesterday, I got a really awesome 3D ultrasound of baby
5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
I'm feeling LO moving already which is fun. Also just got back from a week long vacay to Disneyland which was awesome but exhausting. Still trying to recover from all of the walking!
6) GTKY: Are you decorating a nursery for LO? What's the theme?
Ok so, we originally thought we would turn our guest room into the nursery, but now we are thinking of co habitating DS and the new LO...any thoughts or advice on this? DS is going to be 2 when we bring LO home. My sister says I'm crazy, but we will have so many guests when the baby comes that I'd really like the keep the guest room available. We could always keep LO in our room until he's a few months old, but I don't have room to keep the rocking chair in there, which I rely heavily on for nursing....ugh it makes me crazy thinking about it so I've literally just put it on the back burner for now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated though!
1) How far along are you? How big is baby?
15 weeks! Baby is the size of an orange or avocado depending which app you ask.
2) How are you feeling?
Good, a little tired this week though.
3) Are you showing yet?
Yes...! I always look at my belly when I pass windows on my way to work. I bought 6 maternity pants secondhand off another mom in the neighborhood for $25 bucks. Feels like a steal and looking forward to it being cool enough outside to wear them.
4) Any appointments this week/last?
Nope

Someone mentioned a national park theme. SO COOL!! Would love to do that. Right now it's a guest room but in our small 2bdrm apt it will now be a nursery. I don't plan on going overboard though because we'll probably only be here for a few years. The rest of our house is eclectic and I imagine baby's room will end up that way too.
