My back has been hurting from sleep and workstation arrangements, but otherwise I'm totally relaxed and groovy!
3. Any appointments this week?
Just the chiro.
4. Rants/raves/questions?
Not today.
5. GTKY: What's your favorite summer or warm weather activity?
I'm a bum, so this summer (thanks to my new pad) I'll be kicking it poolside as often as possible...whenever it decides to actually warm up. Feels like never.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 13 weeks (almost out of the first tri!!!!). Either a lemon or a clownfish
2. How are you feeling? pretty good. minimal nausea now just really tired
3. Any appointments this week? nope, not for another two weeks
4. Rants/raves/questions? rave: our panorama results came back all low risk and we're having a boy. So it's been a pretty celebratory weekend!
5. GTKY: What's your favorite summer or warm weather activity? I love traveling to beachy places during the summer (even though I live in Miami, like 30 minutes from the beach but I hate South Beach). My favorite is Punta Cana, DR because the beaches are superb and the drinks are all inclusive. So that's on our to do list for next summer...definitely taken M & L on a little family vacay
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 16 weeks! Baby is the size of a can of soda!
2. How are you feeling? Feeling great!
3. Any appointments this week? I go in for my AFP on Wednesday
4. Rants/raves/questions? I just wrote up this whole instagram/FB post about National Infertility Awareness Week (it starts today!). It made me well up (damn hormones), and I love the idea of being able to help anyone out that may be going through it as well.
5. GTKY: What's your favorite summer or warm weather activity? Just being outside- walking my dog, hiking in the woods, hanging on the lake, walking through the city, eating ice cream on a bench, smelling the ocean- anything and everything
Actually, not completely terrible. Nausea is mostly only active when I'm hungry during the day, and past 3-5 pm, so my mornings are pretty good. Headaches and hip/back pain are a bitch right now, so looking forward to my massage on Sunday!
3. Any appointments this week?
does my massage count?
Nothing until next Friday's 16 week checkup
4. Rants/raves/questions
Rave: DH made enchiladas last night and they actually tasted really good. After spending the weekend at a bachelorette in NOLA, and getting delayed an hour on the way back, this really made my evening.
Rant: drunk people are (even more) annoying when you're sober.
5. GTKY: What's your favorite summer or warm weather activity?
I used to love golfing, but ever since I messed up my shoulder back in 2013 it hasn't been the same. It's now pretty frustrating to play, and I haven't had a chance to take another lesson to correct my swing.
Also love SCUBA diving, so it's bummer that's out for the next year. This summer I'll probably just hang at my parents' house and use their pool, because you don't go outside in the summer here unless you're in the water. Too damn hot!
Not great in the back and joint department. I cannot get comfortable and am super sore after any housework. Neck stiffness, lower back pain yesterday, and a freaky incident this weekend where I couldn't take a deep breath without stabbing pain in the sides of my back. Thankfully that's gone.
3. Any appointments this week?
OB appt on Thurs!
4. Rants/raves/questions?
Not today.
5. GTKY: What's your favorite summer or warm weather activity?
With @kiwi2628 on just being outside. Booking a camping trip with friends for later this summer today and love spending the day at the beach!
13 weeks, lemon I think (I'm bad at checking that lol)
2. How are you feeling?
Still crappy. If I don't keep meds in me around the clock, nothing stays down. Also ***TMI*** but I would really like to poop. My stomach hurts
3. Any appointments this week?
Nope, not until 15 weeks
4. Rants/raves/questions?
I've got a cold on top of allergies and can't breath. It's really annoying.
My birthday is Thursday and DH said we can go get dessert wherever I want! It's a "milestone" birthday I think, but we will do nothing more than that. Lol Sometimes my mom makes me whatever dinner I want.
I will be glad after next week, when we announce and I don't have to worry about what I wear/looking pregnant. I always heard 2nd kid shows faster, I guess they weren't joking.
5. GTKY: What's your favorite summer or warm weather activity?
We love outside stuff. Fishing, swimming, disc golf, walking trails and hiking. Excited that Ds is big enough to be excited about doing these things, this year!
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 13 weeks, lemon
2. How are you feeling? Better! Morning sickness is fading and I’m slowly getting energy back.
3. Any appointments this week? Nope.
4. Rants/raves/questions? We finally told DD about the baby last week and she is so excited! We took her to the NT scan so she could see the baby on the screen. She has been asking a ton of questions and keeps kissing my belly and talking about what she’s going to do with the baby once he/she is here.
5. GTKY: What's your favorite summer or warm weather activity? I’m not a huge fan of summer because it gets pretty hot where I live but I would say barbecues or taking DD to the pool.
