Re: Weekend Ticker Change (10/21, 10/22)
My stupid sinuses will not stop. I'm so over it. And I'm having hip pain. But otherwise, the kicks and rolls are getting stronger, which is fun.
3) Any appointments this week coming up?
My rant is mainly about myself.
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of?
The dark. Well, not necessarily the dark - but things that you can't see in the dark.
3) Any appointments this week coming up? MFM appointment Friday where they will complete my anatomy scan. This uncooperative little boy wasn't having it last Friday.
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of? Ghosts. I don't want anyone to come at me with anything related to ghosts. The way my bladder is set up this pregnancy I'd pee my pants if I saw one lol
Tired. Still throwing everything up at night. I think a lot of it has to do with GERD, not sure.
3) Any appointments this week coming up?
Still haven't begun on our bedroom so we can get baby's room together. It's going to be building the back room from ground up and we really need to get started.
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of? Losing more grandparents. I'm almost 33 and lost my fist grandma in September. There are 5 more and I'm just not ready.
@kelsajo I'm so sorry for your loss. That is amazing you still have 5 grandparents!! My grandma was my last living grandparent and she passed less than a week after I took my daughter to meet her last year. That was super important to me so it meant a lot that they got to meet. Sending hugs your way!!
I can't kick being tired, but otherwise I feel good!! Baby is getting more active in there...
3) Any appointments this week coming up?
I think I have posted here before how my 19-year-old stepson is living with us. He is driving me nuts. Mostly because he quit his job 2 weeks after moving in at the beginning of June and has since done NOTHING. It's so annoying - like, his presence just irks me because he is such a bump on a log. He is supposed to join the military, but the process is taking forever and I don't get it. He has until the end of the year to move out, but I'm ready now. When he pays his rent Nov 1, I am looking forward to saying, "60 days notice!!" We need his room for the new LO, so he has GOT to go. I have always had a place for him in my home, and now I'm having a child who needs a place in my home. Ok rant over - if you made it through this rant, bless you!!
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of?
Wasps. I'm deathly afraid of getting stung and we get them BAD here in the summer.
ETA something I forgot because Mom Brain + Pregnancy Brain!!
I really feel pretty good! I can't complain.
3) Any appointments this week coming up?
Daycares!! I can't deal. I've had a permanent stress headaches for a couple weeks now thinking about this. We have two tours this week, so hopefully one of those will work out for us. Although one doesn't have availability until August, which is insane to me. Wish me luck! haha
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of?
When I'm home alone and the doorbell rings
3) Any appointments this week coming up? Not this week, just two more weeks until anatomy scan!
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of? I am the most afraid of ghost stories. Anytime I hear one or watch an actually scary movie I can't sleep for at least a week. I feel bad for my fiance because he loves Halloween for the scary movies, and I can never bring myself to go with him.

Boobs continue to grow. I don’t see how it’s possible for them to be almost the size they were when u was nursing DS, will they ever stop ir just continue until they explode?!
Also, these little jabs and kicks are getting pretty strong. Her legs are measuring ahead and I think I can feel it lol
3) Any appointments this week coming up?
Have boobs ever exploded from being too big? (lol)
serious rant, though. DH was just mandated OT for the foreseeable future. He works 6p-6a on a rotating schedule as it is, now he has to work the first half or last half of another person’s shift who quit. It takes them months to replace people there, so the only days off he will get are major holidays and baby doctor appointments. The money will be great, but the schedule just really sucks. Between him being over expended, me working 3 days a week, trying to keep up with a toddler, nursing school, studying and clinicals and preparing for baby life will be insane. We’re looking foreword to maternity leave for some downtime. Thankfully, he can get up to 6 weeks if he uses vacation time and FMLA. Newborns aren’t a vacation, but the time off will be great.
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of?
Mmm, nothing fictional or anything. My biggest fear is something happening to my son, husband or family (siblings, parents, nieces and nephews). We’ve had a lot of deaths in the family the last few years and my dad is chronically sick, my mom just had a lumpectomy and biopsy yesterday. I don’t know what I would do without my family.
1) How far along are you? How big is baby?
Just the hip/pelvic pain. I'm going to call a chiropractor and see if they can help when I quit F-ing around on TB! Otherwise I'm feeling good.
3) Any appointments this week coming up?
DH is very interested lately in raising our kids with ethics and morals. And today he was talking about what kids learn from the gendered toys we give them in the first year. ie dolls verses balls, etc. So cute!
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of?
I like scary movies and am really not afraid of much, but I guess I have a bit of claustrophobia. When I was a kid (prolly pre-teen) we toured a submarine and after a minute or two I was like, get me outta here. I never want to do that again.
I am so sick of listening to myself complain, but I don't feel good. I am having migraines closer and closer together and have been having 3 day stretches of what I can only describe as agony. The blood pressure medication they doctor put me on makes me super drowsy and extra useless, and my blood pressure is till up anyway. they are starting to talk to me more seriously about preeclampsia and it is definitely freaking me out.
3) Any appointments this week coming up?
my husband is no nice, lol. it's not that I'm surprised, but I am just feeling so useless and it would be so easy for him to sigh or roll his eyes or anything when another dog walk or trip to the grocery store etc. is just too much for me when I have a migraine. My best friend and mom are also just so amazingly there for me and I am so grateful.
5) GTKY: Halloween question - what are you most scared of?
Ha ha , honestly I have a fair amount of phobias, some of them are pretty dark and honestly not where I want my mind to go right now. Car accidents and sudden freak accidents in general are definitely things I worry about way more than anyone should, especially since you can't do anything about the possibility of your loved ones, say, suddenly sneezing and driving off a bridge. the dentist is a pretty normal one
