Rant- I'm really struggling with insomnia. I didn't have it this bad for this long with DD. I feel like I just can't get a solid night of sleep.
Rave- I finally started wearing maternity pants this week and I feel like a new woman!
Any upcoming appointments? OB at the end of December

It has not been a great 24 hours. I had some chest tightening like I was sick without any other sick symptoms... then dizziness and shortness of breath. Then DH (a doctor) asked me about leg pain which I then remembered having the day before... I knew what he was getting at (blood clot/PE) but we were both busy and kind of brushed it off... then I felt worse in the middle of the night and I’m home alone with our toddler while DH is working. So he sends his friend over in the middle of the night (also a Doc) to check on me... had a midwive appointment this morning, and luckily all vitals were good so they didn’t make me go to the ER. Just got waiting on labs now... ugh. I’m not an alarmist and I’m sometimes worry I should worry more! So that’s been fun
Any upcoming appointments?
had one today and listening to the heart beat is always a relief. Will have th next appt with 20 week ultrasound early in Jan.

in the current moment I feel like my strongest talents are shopping for baby girl and eating ice cream.

This week has been pretty rough. I was in an accident on Saturday with DS in the car with me. I think my car is totaled, but, thank God, we are both fine and I had an appointment yesterday. Baby seems to be doing well. I've been dealing with insurance and the rental car place yesterday and today. They are super nice, but it's overwhelming! I'm trying to follow up and figure out what's going on with my old car, we bought a new one (again, pretty positive it's totaled), setting up insurance for new car, and organizing dropping the rental off so I'm not charged another day.
On the up side, my new car is being delivered tomorrow. We got it from Carvana, and it looks really nice! My other car is a 2007, so I've had it for a long time. I got a 2016 Kia Sorento, so I'm excited!
Any upcoming appointments?
I just had one yesterday. I'm scheduled for 1/2 and, from what the nurse said, I'm going to be contacted to set up my next US. I'm hoping to find out the sex of the baby soon!
GTKY: What's something that you are really good at?
ummmm..... sleep? Does that count? J/K Honestly, I can't think of anything. I really don't have any crafty things or sports or anything I'm especially good at. I need a hobby....
@holli0801 I hope your labs come back all clear. I am probably to relaxed about stuff sometimes too, I am glad your vitals checked out okay though!
I will be 15 weeks tomorrow, due the 30th
What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves?
Rant- the school nurse found nits in my daughters hair! My life has been endless laundry and literal nit picking!
Also, TMI but suddenly I have no kegal muscle strength. I always prided myself in the fact I had two kids vaginally and didn’t pee my pants when I sneezed but all of the sudden I am noticing I am setting my pants a little! I didn’t know that could happen during pregnancy!
Rave- my kids tell me every day how much they love our new baby and are so excited to be adding to our family.
Any upcoming appointments?
I had a checkin yesterday and everything is going well. I thought I was going to have a shock on the scale since I started having an appetite again but I actually lost a pound since my last appointment. I still look huge though! Third baby bumps are no joke
Scheduled my next ultrasound for January 10th. Still not sure if we will find out the gender or not
GTKY: What's something that you are really good at?
I’m really good at making my kids feel safe and loved.
15 weeks 2 days; due May 27th; orange
What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves?
I'm feeling really great compares to the first trimester! The nausea was no joke but I seem to be past that now. Hoping it doesn't make a reappearance! It feels so great to have energy again! DH and i spent the weekend away in Victoria BC and i was able to do a bunch of walking and sightseeing without feeling like death!
Any upcoming appointments
Next tues is our next appt. We get to find out gender that day. I'm so excited!
GTKY: What's something that you are really good at?
I don't really have any hobbies. I work a lot and think I'm pretty good at what I do. I work in bridal and it's such a rush when you pick the dress a bride says yes to! I feel like a detective asking a bunch of questions and then solving the mystery. I love it!
Peaches- 15 weeks on Thurs. May 31 although will be sooner (twins)
What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves?
Painting our nursery this weekend! Feeling pretty good
Any upcoming appointments?
Next on the 21st
GTKY: What's something that you are really good at?
Sewing- I love to make tons of baby stuff- quilts, hats, leggings, headbands, bibs etc
15w 1d, 5/29, avacado or navel orange
What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves?
Im feeling great! Second trimester so far has started off wonderfully...so much more energy and not nauseated.
Rants- I'm a teacher and we are so busy the month of December at school. We have after school events twice a week and at the end of the day I just want to go home. Last week I was at work until 8:30 at night a day, this week I've got two more after school events, and another one next week. Not to mention I drive an hour to work, so if I leave at 8:30, I'm not home until 9:30 and at that point..bed.
Raves-Had an appointment on Monday and as soon as she put the fetal Doppler on my belly, there was that sweet baby heartbeat. I just love that sound. Best thing I've ever heard!
Any upcoming appointments?
Next week we are having an early US to try to determine the sex. My doctors office refused to US me until 20 weeks, so I want a peek at this baby! I haven't seen him/her yet!
GTKY: What's something that you are really good at?
Id like to say I'm decent at cooking, but you'd have to ask my husband for sure.
