Re: Sunday Ticker Change 12/17
I'm feeling pregnant lol! Aches/pains and my energy is starting to fade. All normal.
I have an appt on Wed. I forget what time...it's on my work calendar though so I'm good.
Raves: see above!! Like i said, i know 24w is still far too early but knowing baby's chances of survival grow w each passing week is just amazing. And here's to the last month of 2nd tri!! Goodness this pregnancy is flying.
Rants: DD2 has horrific diarrhea. Like the all over her bed/don't trust a fart variety. I feel bad for her bc she thinks she did something wrong. I keep telling her it's ok and that she's sick but she doesn't get it (bc she's totally fine otherwise).
Gtky: i just got a haircut a week ago and splurged on a super nice clarifying shampoo. Total game changer. I'll also get another pedi soon i think. I just got one a few weeks ago but i think i deserve it.

I am not sure if I'm at the beginning of a cold or if it's just this dang post nasal drip ive been dealing with forever. I've been less achy and less crazy emotional the last week thankfully.
I have an ob appt tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed my blood pressure is good. I'll have my toddler with me so who knows.
Gtky: we will be traveling later this week to visit family and I'm looking forward to my family watch the kids so I can have a nice quiet dinner w dh. I can't believe Christmas is coming so soon. This month has flown by
21 weeks - endive
How are you feeling?
ok - not too much to complain about this week
Any appointments this week?
nope, had my anatomy scan this past week and everything looked good. We’ll open an envelope on Christmas Day to find out the sex
Rants/raves?
meh, not really. Just super relieved that the anatomy scan went well and ready to find out whether baby #4 is a boy or a girl!
GTKY: Tis the season to be busy but how are you holding up w the hustle/bustle of the holidays? What are you doing for yourself these days?
I am almost done with my Christmas shopping - really just need to buy stocking stuffers - so that is a relief. Excited to experience Christmas Day with the kids. Not doing much for myself, per se, but I’m holding up ok - did nearly all my Christmas shopping online so I haven’t had to endure the crowds and other holiday nonsense (which makes my blood pressure surge).
How many weeks are you/how big is baby?
25 weeks - 14" tall & nearing 2# (according to ovia)
How are you feeling?
Recovering from yesterday's stomach bug. No food or water stayed down for 12 hours. Praying the toddler doesn't come down with it. Otherwise just occasional sciatica pain and maybe a bit more fatigued from struggling to find comfortable positions to sleep in.
Any appointments this week?
Not until next month
Rants/raves?
Rant: just annoyed that DH wants to spend Thursday after noon-noon Sunday at his parents and only Sunday evening-Monday evening at mine. I really struggle with enjoying any time with his family as, idk, like one thing is just views on how to treat people is very different. DH just blows it off and says theyre not serious, but it really irritates me. So just not looking forward to spending that many days in a row with them.

Christmas shopping/wrapping is all done, thank you Amazon! Today we are going out to do some fun window shopping. Looking at the trees and lights in the mall and picking up some last minute groceries for making some Christmas candies. Nothing in particular for me.
Baby #1: Aug. 2016
Baby #2: April 1st, 2018
23 weeks- tree squirrel
How are you feeling?
energy is coming back! My house is clean and I seem to be feeling more normal!
Any appointments this week?
regular check up on Friday morning.
Rants/raves?
Finding professional maternity attire is getting frustrating. Nothing from my previous pregnancies fits well (just looks frumpy) I feel like I wear the same thing every day.
GTKY: Tis the season to be busy but how are you holding up w the hustle/bustle of the holidays? What are you doing for yourself these days?
things have actually slowed down here. Figure skating, gymnastics and swimming seasons have wrapped up and we have a lot more free time in the evenings to help combat weekend busy.
24 weeks, VIABILITY WEEK!!!, Cantalop.
How are you feeling?
Overall okay, just lots of normal body pains.
Any appointments this week?
Nope
Rants/raves?

Im not caught up in the holiday hustle/bustle. I just say no when i dont want to do something lol.
@sjn00 Haha you make it sound so easy. I need to get better at just saying no to things and not feeling guilty.
How many weeks are you/how big is baby?
25weeks, size of a cauliflower
How are you feeling?
Still good this week. I think I'm getting used to being pregnant bc i honestly forget sometimes until i look in a mirror or he kicks hah

I got a spur of the moment christmas manicure this week to spoil myself and a couple long warm baths. And used pregnancy as an excuse to bow out of a holiday party a little early and then went home to read alone/have introvert time
I’m still feeling good overall.
No appointments this week.
I ended up getting the job I just interviewed for, even though I told them I was pregnant during the interview! It seems like it will be a great place to work.
My husband and I just got back from a concert and dinner date. It was a really nice evening. I also have plans to have lunch with one of my best friends later this week and bake Christmas cookies!
@sjn00 Haha, love that

Any appointments this week?
No appointments until January

My boyfriend has been hard at work remodeling a nook in our bedroom for baby. So far it looks fantastic. I am so proud of him.
GTKY: Tis the season to be busy but how are you holding up w the hustle/bustle of the holidays? What are you doing for yourself these days?
We are trying to pace ourselves. Yesterday we spent most of the day together going out for a delicious tea and scone breakfast and then finishing up some holiday shopping.
I am feeling pretty good overall. Exhausted mainly, but all the usual stuff.
Not until January.
None today.
DS and I are in WI visiting family right now. It’s a little overwhelming being pregnant and doing everything alone, while constantly driving DS everywhere so he can see all my/DHs family. I’m thinking we may leave a day early so I can just get home and relax.
How many weeks are you/how big is baby?
23 weeks, baby is the size of a grapefruit
How are you feeling?
Pretty sore and achey, especially my lower back. The heating pad has become a permanent fixture on the couch. I don't even bother putting it away since I use it constantly.
Any appointments this week?
Absolutely nothing!
Rants/raves?
DH finally felt the baby move the other night. Whenever baby is active, I have him press his hand on my belly. He's only felt one kick so far, but seeing his face light up was the best thing ever.
GTKY: Tis the season to be busy but how are you holding up w the hustle/bustle of the holidays? What are you doing for yourself these days?
Finished all of my Christmas shopping this weekend, just have the wrapping left to do. I've been taking it easy at home when I can, asking DH and DD for help doing the dishes, putting my feet up often, sleeping in late on the weekends. It's been nice
Me: 29 DH: 35
Married 5/3/14, TTC ever since
DX: Lean PCOS, Clomid resistant
Femara 7.5 + Ovidrel = BFP! Due 4/15/18
How many weeks are you/how big is baby?
21 weeks Sunday little late to the game this week. Baby is the size of a bok choy which is so fun to say “baby bok choy”
How are you feeling?
Started to feel tired again, achey in my feet and ankles and sleep is off and on getting comfortable. But honestly overall I feel great
Any appointments this week?
None this week
Rants/raves? He has been moving so much more lately.
My BF felt him kick once and it was so sweet to see his excitement. I hope he can feel him again soon
GTKY: Tis the season to be busy but how are you holding up w the hustle/bustle of the holidays? What are you doing for yourself these days?
we are just about done shopping... thank you Amazon Prime. But i have such a hard time finding a gift for my BF he has everything he needs so I feel so lame with my choices.
For me I took the whole week off to relax and have no commitments so a pedicure is surely in place maybe even a massage
