Re: Monday Ticker Change - March 19
How are you feeling? Fine. Everyone keeps asking me if I've felt him move yet and I haven't so I'm looking forward to that.
Any appts this week? Not this week. We could have had the anatomy scan this week but DH is away so we scheduled it for next week. I can't wait for that. I'm dying to see him again.
Rants/raves/questions? Like I said, DH is traveling all week. He visits friends in Switzerland every March to go big mountain skiing and play in the snow. I'm enjoying some alone time but that is going to get old fast so hopefully the week will go by quickly.
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again? Footloose - The original 1984 version (probably goes without saying). I love everything about that movie.

How are you feeling? My back has been really achy pretty much every day for the last few days, I hope it's from stress/overexerting and not just here to stay for the next ~21 weeks. A heating pad and Tylenol are providing some relief at least. The RLP has also really increased and there is kind of a dull ache at times in addition to the sharp pains when I sneeze/cough/turn over. I am feeling her almost every day now though so that helps balance out the soreness.
Any appts this week? Not this week, anatomy scan is a week from today, can't wait!
Rants/raves/questions? I discovered that the Macy's near me is actually one of the ones that sells maternity clothes and they had some great deals so I scored basically an entire maternity wardrobe for $250 and am hopefully set now. It feels so much nicer to be comfortable and to look mildly professional again, haha. Rant is that DH and my brother both got totally sh*tfaced day drinking while watching basketball on Friday,neither are normally big drinkers and they drank a bunch without eating and it went really south for them. I had to babysit them and clean my brother's puke out of my guest bathroom sink (DH at least puked in our toilet) while up working until 1 am on this brief for work. It was not a fun night and it took everything in me to not cave and have a glass of wine. But at least DH was apologetic and super nice all weekend and def didn't give me any grief about shopping.
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again? Clueless!

How are you feeling?
I can't sleep to save my life. I can get 2-3 hours, then am up for 1-2 hours. So I'm a grouch.
Any appts this week?
AS next Tuesday!!!!!!
Rants/raves/questions?
Its also my MBF, but our principal announced he is trying to move. I understand that he is having issues with taking time to get his daughter the help she needs for her Celiacs. BUT now I have to figure out how to handle the new person, that they haven't even opened a spot for. I have left my last 2 districts due to awful administrators. I will admit that he wasn't always wonderful and had some serious side-eye for things, but at least we always knew where he stood.
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again? Sword in the Stone, animated Disney version. I adore the music on that movie. For an adult on, Lady Hawke. Its an extremely well done live action movie that I have always found to be enjoyable.

How are you feeling?
Petty good, actually. Tying my shoes/ skates is becoming a PITA, but otherwise I'm feeling so much better than I have up to this point.
Any appts this week?
I'm at my anatomy scan now! Just had the ultrasound and waiting for the doctor. Everything looks good, and it's a boy.
Rants/raves/questions?
I'm now to distracted by the ultrasound to remember anything!
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again?
I don't really like rewatching movies unless it's been many years, but I'll watch A League Of Their Own whenever I see it on cable.

You go from mango to banana because they start measuring the legs at 20 weeks instead of just head to rump.

How are you feeling?
Awful. I’ve now had a cough and asthma for 4.5 weeks, I’m headed to a specialist today to see if there is anything we can do. We canceled our big family vacation because I’m just so sick
Any appts this week?
No
Rants/raves/questions?
Rave — we had our AS last week and we are having our second boy! I’m a little nervous but I love my DS so much that I’m excited!
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again?
How to lose a guy in 10 days
How are you feeling? my right hip/groin is killing me to the point of not being able to stand on it alone when taking off/putting on pants.
Any appts this week? I made an appointment with my chiro to start those regular appointments for the next half of pregnancy. I need to figure out insurance coverage though
Rants/raves/questions? I learned that when my bladder is full I can feel baby moving like crazy, so I try to hold my pee more (not really, but it's still pretty awesome). I have felt baby quite a bit over the last few days, even thought I could kind of feel it on the outside too but DH didn't feel anything.
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again? I have a lot. Love Actually, Mean Girls, Moulin Rouge, Across the Universe, Pitch Perfect. and like a million more.
August '18 March Siggy Challenge - You had ONE JOB

Any appts this week?
Yup! Just a regular ol OB visit, but I can't wait to check up on LO.
Rants/raves/questions?
My in-home daycare teacher had an emergency family issue, and had to close for the remainder of the year. So we had to scramble to find alternative care and a new permanent place. Rave: DD did wonderfully at her new place, and I am so confident the whole situation was a blessing in disguise.
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again?
Clue. It's my favorite board game and movie.
How many weeks are you/baby's size? 17/ video game controller

Rants/raves/questions? Sleeping terribly. Continuous waking, weird dreams, and sciatica in the middle of the night
GTKY: What movie can you watch over and over again? Beetlejuice!
Hello from Detroit!
How are you feeling? Mostly good. Sleep has been weird with dreams and waking up often, and the round ligament pains have been popping up more and more, but I am still so thankful that nausea is gone that the rest doesn't matter.
Any appts this week? Ultrasound and anatomy scan tmw morning! So excited to see her again.
Rants/raves/questions? Anyone know of a good carrier for a petite frame? I'm 5'0, 110lbs (prepregnancy, hopefully I can get somewhere around 115 after!) for reference. Husband is an average guy size so I'm thinking it will be easier to find something that he can wear.
