Are you pro- or anti-Valentine's Day celebrations? Why? Meh, I like celebrating with my kids, but it's NBD with my husband.
How far along today? How big is baby? 19 weeks- hedge hog!! Or mango, or zucchini New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms Pretty sure Braxton Hicks have begun. Sigh. Appointments/US this week ANATOMY SCAN TODAY!!! Woot woot!! Random Questions None Rants/Raves I’m so over this anterior placenta. I feel next to no movement, and what I do feel I either feel on my far left side, or it is like muddled. So flipping annoying. Are you pro- or anti-Valentine's Day celebrations? Why? Neither? I guess pro? I don’t put the expectations up there because in all honestly I would be letting myself down. We actually celebrated early and went to a movie and dinner last night. The new 50 Shades was great! I really enjoyed it! Side note- you know you’re pregnant when you cry during 50 Shades.... After the movie, we went to dinner at The Melting Pot- which is a fondu restaurant. It was our first time there and pretty neat. The entree was nothing to write home about, but the cheese appetizer and the chocolate dessert were pretty great!!

New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms had heart palpitations all evening yesterday. almost every 30 seconds. It was disconcerting. I chugged glasses of water and they still didn't go away. And possibly feeling baby more? get flutters here and there, still not 100% sure.

Are you pro- or anti-Valentine's Day celebrations? Why? Whatever makes you happy. We usually just cook dinner at home, or get takeout from my favorite taco shop. DH is flying home on V-day this year from a work trip so probably still won't do anything exciting. Maybe he'll pick up tacos on his way home

New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms More kicks! I thought H would have felt them the other morning but he couldn't tell if it was baby or my breathing. I have an anterior placenta but I'm feeling her move and kick all the time.
Appointments/US this week Just my son's 1 year check-up. Boo, shots.

Are you pro- or anti-Valentine's Day celebrations? Why? To each their own. We don't celebrate it because we just got over the holidays, we don't need another reason to spend money. When I was in school, H would cook me some romantic dinner. Now we do something simple together like cook a meal, have some wine, and watch a movie. I like the holiday because I think it's cute but haven't ever gone all out for it.
