Re: Saturday Ticker Change 9/23

  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 25 weeks. Cauliflower. 

    2) How are you feeling? What's helping/not working for you? I'm feeling pretty good, but highly aware that there's only a few weeks until 3rd trimester - so I'm trying to get stuff done and potentially overworking myself. 
     
    3) Any appointments this week/last? This week I'll have my Centering appointment and glucose screen.

    4) How are your baby preparations going? (Nursery/ Registry/ Etc.) 
    Nursery is 80% done. Hence the overworking myself. 

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions? 

    6) GTKY: What are you up to this weekend? Getting the nursery set up. I assembled the baby's new dresser yesterday.

  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 

    24 weeks now -- baby is the size of a cantaloupe. 

    2) How are you feeling? What's helping/not working for you?

    I'm having a lot of issues with an unsettled stomach at the end of the day, or after eating really greasy foods, so I'm trying to watch for commonalities in what upsets my stomach. It seems okay if I avoid greasy chips, but those are my favorite. Cheetos are right off the table, it seems.
     
    3) Any appointments this week/last?

    Regular monthly check-up on Friday. 

    4) How are your baby preparations going? (Nursery/ Registry/ Etc.)

    Mixed. We have a bunch of clothes, have purchased all the diapers we need, and have a smattering of items awaiting us in the garage (car seat, baby swing, nursing pillow). Since we're not setting up a nursery, it doesn't seem very far along. 

    We're planning on buying bedding stuff in November, and then after that it's all small things (practical baby clothes, bottles, etc). I feel pretty prepared, I suppose.

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?

    I am at an almost comfortable stage of pregnancy. I'm physically not at my best (I swear I groan every time I move and I feel about as attractive as Jabba the Hut) but the pregnancy itself is nice. The baby has a pattern of active and passive times that don't shift too much, and my husband is pleasantly involved. It's a good time.

    6) GTKY: What are you up to this weekend?

    Last night our D&D group finished a campaign we'd been playing for more than a year, and we even won. Next we're going to do a trial run to see if Tomb of Annihilation will be up our alley. 

    I just spent an hour parting out meat and making bags of soup starter and throwing stuff from our grocery trip in the freezer. It was satisfying.
  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
    22 weeks, a coconut 

    2) How are you feeling? What's helping/not working for you?
    Feeling pretty good overall. I feel extremely tired by around 8 and am usually asleep by 830. 
     
    3) Any appointments this week/last?
    Nothing for a couple weeks. 

    4) How are your baby preparations going? (Nursery/ Registry/ Etc.)
    Registry is done. Only have the crib set up. Haha

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Tailbone pain. Good lord! I want to have someone punch me in the tailbone cause I feel like it is out. 

    6) GTKY: What are you up to this weekend?
    Pretty relaxing weekend. BBQ yesterday with the family and a birthday party today. 
  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
    23 weeks, a grapefruit (or, if I go by the geeky app, it's the size of the fertility idol from Indiana Jones!)

    2) How are you feeling? What's helping/not working for you?
    Feeling pretty decent, but could really feel my belly stretching and growing this weekend, which is always uncomfortable.. 
     
    3) Any appointments this week/last?
    had one last week. It went well. OB said she was excited to let me VBAC and has a 70% success rate for that, so it was good news! Don't have another apt until Oct 19th, and I'll do the 1 hour glucose screening then.. 

    4) How are your baby preparations going? (Nursery/ Registry/ Etc.)
    Registry is done, I got all our cloth diapers organized this weekend to see what we needed to replace, and OMG I forgot how TINY newborn diapers are! I died of cute!

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Rave- I can still put my own shoes and socks on! Rant- shortness of breath is setting in 

    6) GTKY: What are you up to this weekend?
    Replying today, because I was helping watch a friend's daughter so she could get a mommy break. Her mother had a stroke and she's been handling all of the things that go with that, and just needed a day of down time.

  • 1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
    24 weeks, cantaloupe!

    2) How are you feeling? What's helping/not working for you?
    Feeling pretty good overall, just feel heavy and easily out of breath. 

    3) Any appointments this week/last?
    I’m writing this from the waiting room for my usual appointment. 

    4) How are your baby preparations going? (Nursery/ Registry/ Etc.)
    Ugh!!! We are in search of a house to buy and it’s rough. We put in an offer for a place $6000 above asking price and they took a different offer!! I really want to get into a place and start working on the nursery before I become to big and worn out. 

    5) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    See above. 

    6) GTKY: What are you up to this weekend?
    Schoolwork. I’m super behind from Irma and feel less motivated being pregnant. I may have to drop one of my five classes this semester. It’s just a lot of work...
