Not sure if anyone is around with the holidays, but here's this week's check in
How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO? 21 weeks and 2 days. 5/6. Size of a Least Weasel.
What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? Had a good Christmas with my momma (eve and morning) and my in-laws (dinner). My husband is gone tomorrow through Sunday to see our nephew, his bro, and our sister-in-law, so I have a lot of me time coming up. Random side note: I feel like my tummy is getting so big all of a sudden and I still have 19 weeks to go Guess it could be all the holiday food
Any upcoming appointments? This question reminded me that I have a check up tomorrow. First one I am going to alone, but not a big deal.
GTKY: Who is your role model and why? My dad is my role model. He was smart, kind, hardworking, funny, and selfless. When I was younger and very shy, I always wished I could make people laugh the way he did. I hope our son is like my dad (and/or my husband).
How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO? 20+6 today so basically 21. 5/9 due date and size is 20 weeks is banana but 21 is like canteloupe I think. What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? I feel like a slight nausea has returned but more like a gross taste in throat. Other than that pretty good. No big complaints. Any upcoming appointments? 1/5 for check up and 1/22 for repeat AS. I'll be taking different family members to that one that coulsnt come the first time. GTKY: Who is your role model and why? Probably my mom. We're pretty much twins already and it was just me and her for a long time growing up.
Hello all. I hope your holidays have been wonderful and stress free!
I’m 20 and 3. Baby is the size of a banana. Due 5/12
I really enjoyed the holidays, I’m super sad they are over but very happy to be halfway through the pregnancy. I’m finally starting to relax and have some hope that this is actually going to happen. I was very anxious originally that we would have major complications due to my weight but up until now it’s been a breeze.
Anatomy scan and check up tomorrow! I can’t wait!
GTKY: like @charlestonchew my mother is a big role model of mine. She isn’t perfect but she’s always done what she has to so that my sister and I have everything we need. My husband is a big role model of mine. He is basically flawless for many reasons but when I am struggling I always think about how he would handle it and it helps me refocus and get it done.
How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO? 20 + 5 What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? Just got back from urgent care- went in thinking I had a cold and a nasty sinus infection and left with the FLU. I'm really nervous because like an idiot I googled "pregnancy and flu" and got all sorts of scary stuff. So far I don't feel that awful and no fever so I'm hoping its a pretty mild case- and I got the flu shot so hopefully the symptoms will be a little milder at least. And hopefully it's early enough that the Tamiflu will do something. Ugh. On the bright side, I have barricaded myself in my room with tissues, 7 up, Christmas cookies and bad TV while DH wrangles the kids. Some quiet time for me! Any upcoming appointments? We had our 20 week anatomy scan this week- everything looks healthy and the doc confirmed GIRL! GTKY: Who is your role model and why? My dad definitely. He used to be a teacher (and I'm currently teaching), and we both look at the world in the same way and have similar personalities. He's super calm and has this air of competence- like whatever terrible thing is happening, he can help you find the solution. He also tells really funny stories. Whenever anyone tells me I remind them of him, it's such a compliment!
@bjkay22 that is really sweet about your husband. I feel that way about mine too. He is so much calmer than me and he really helps when I am having a super anxious day.
@b5678 I hope you get well quickly. I'm so sorry you have the flu. I hope you have a speedy recovery with no complications!
@k5678 get sell soon! Being sick, especially with the flu is no fun while pregnant.
How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO? 20w,5d. Due May 12th. Baby is as long as a banana. What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? Back at work today and feeling at bit sluggish and stressed. Holidays were great but the house is an disaster so I meet some time/energy to clean it up!!! Otherwise feeling decent. I've been getting these sharp pains, general stomach soreness and feelings of pressure/heaviness in my low abdomen. Is this round ligament pain? I felt it for at least a few hours over 3 days. Not sure if I was standing too much, lifting too much or just belly is growing. I've also been getting sharp pain in my hip/leg area and are sore back. I hope it doesn't continue or get worse!
Any upcoming appointments? Not until January 17th.
GTKY: Who is your role model and why? Probably my mom. She was a stay at home mom, but also worked part time when we were older. She was always there for us and managed to keep the house sparkling clean, always make dinner and generally just made things look easy with no complaints. I don't know how she does it. I definitely could learn a thing or two from her! (Big complainer over here lol)
@babys_2018 for me RLP is a sharp, acute pain. It doesn’t last hours (maybe a minute max). I feel it mostly if I am lying down and sneeze or move suddenly.
I hope your pain doesn’t continue to get worse either. Some of my aches come and go and some seem to be getting worse
How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO? 20w 6d, a banana, due 12/11 Two weeks ago on u/s he was 11oz
What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? Busy Christmas weekend and everyone was sick last week so I'm happy to be just relaxing this week. Pregnancy wise everything seems to be going really well, still pretty thrilled with all of the baby movements, and Christmas leftovers! Ha
Any upcoming appointments? Not for another 2 weeks, just an appt, no u/s.
GTKY: Who is your role model and why? My husband, he's so hard working and loving. Also my mama, again hard working and always sees the best in people.
@k5678 hope you feel better soon! I feel like I am coming down with something too - my throat is starting to hurt. Being sick isn't fun, but adding pregnancy on top of it is even worse.
Weekly check in for people who are due the second week of May: 5/6-5/12.
How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO? 20w5d due 5/12 - banana. At u/s 10oz What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? I thought I was getting my energy back, but I have been falling asleep at the drop of a hat the last several days around 4 or 5 for 45 mins to an hour. I feel like first tri all over... maybe it's all of the holiday craziness. We have been on the go since last Friday. Looking forward to some relaxation this weekend before heading back to work next week. Happy New Year all! Any upcoming appointments? Just had our as last week. All was well, which was a relief considering last pregnancy's as did not. I was super stressed going into it. GTKY: Who is your role model and why? My grandpa who was a very hardworking man and always expected better out of me, regardless of how well I did. And my mom who gave my sister and I everything even though she was a single working mom. I have a hard time doing it with a husband and can't even imagine.
