Re: Friday Ticker Change 5/25
2. How are you feeling? Great! Bending over is exhausting though
3. Any appointments this week? nothing until June 8th
4. Rants/raves/questions? I'm jonesing to clean and organize so bad! I wish I had enough PTO to take some time off before LO arrives just to clean.
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self? Stay calm!!!
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 20w, I have no clue. Haha. On target according to the OB.
2. How are you feeling? Getting better! Started taking Unisom and B6 for nausea last week and I haven't thrown up in over a week! And I'm eating decent sized meals again. Still nauseous every now and then throughout the day, but things are MUCH better.
3. Any appointments this week? Saw the OB as a follow up to my anatomy scan and she didn't find any problems with the heartbeat while she was listening. She thinks the imaging department at our hospital has gotten a little trigger happy on requiring additional scans, but recommends I go back as they asked.
4. Rants/raves/questions? We're buying a new house!! So pumped to spend the summer on a lake, but stressed about getting our current house ready to list. And packing. OMG packing sounds like hell while pregnant and with a 2.5 year old. Send me good vibes the next few weeks!
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self? Take advantage of your maternity leave. This will probably be your last little one, so just take the hit at work. You'll catch back up soon enough and be missing those chances for newborn snuggles.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 18 weeks, size of an artichoke!
2. How are you feeling? I'm felling fine most days, but I'm tired and achy a lot.
3. Any appointments this week? Nope, not till June 8th.
4. Rants/raves/questions? dishes and laundry continue to be a challenge to get done. My mom is getting a steroid epidural next week, and we really hope it helps with her back pain.
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self? oh boy, that's a tough one. Maybe since this is #4 I'd say something like, just learn to roll with it. Life is going to be crazy, but totally worth it!
DD 3/15/12
DD 6/3/14
#4 Due 10/26/18!
2. How are you feeling? Feeling huge. I compared my 20 week photo with my first pregnancy and hot damn. big mistake lol.
3. Any appointments this week? i had AS on Tuesday and it was AWESOME. Still team green, but stare at my ultrasound 10 times a day to get any hints lmao. 20 wk appt next Wednesday with doc.
4. Rants/raves/questions? I am not sleeping well. Going to go back on Diclectin like some of you ladies have suggested. Wish me luck!
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self? it's OK to not be OK. Take care of yourself too.
My Ultrasound tech made us a composite photo that cut out Blast’s midsection “since we didn’t know want to know the sex”, but it is in profile- so I am like “why - it’s in profile! You can’t see anything... unless maybe there is something to see?” I think I read somewhere that boys start getting erection while in the womb....
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 20 weeks. Banana, mango, paper airplane
2. How are you feeling? I've stopped taking my diclegis and so I've been nauseous. I'm starting to swell in by ankles and feet. Just tired mostly.
3. Any appointments this week? I had my OB appointment this past Wednesday.
4. Rants/raves/questions? Nope
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self?
Enjoy all of the little moments. And try not to be critical of myself.
How are you feeling? Not well I went to the hospital per my doctor because of sharp pain in a specific area on my stomach for 3 days and they had no explanation. Exhausted every day.
Any appointments this week? No june 6th is the next one
Rants/raves/questions? What is going on I am so tired
What piece of advice would you give your future mother?
Spend more time with your babies. Time will go by so fast.
2. How are you feeling? My ligaments are defiantly moving and I’m feeling the pain when I walk and my leg moves a certain way. Lightning crotch is real. And sciatic pain is no fun.
3. Any appointments this week? not until May 31st. Then the 6th I have an appointment with a specialist to look at my cervix.
4. Rants/raves/questions?
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self? Sleep when you can. You’ll have a toddler and a baby, take breaks!
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 18 weeks, artichoke or sweet potato
2. How are you feeling? Pretty good! Have some food aversion still and occasional RLP- I can tell this kid is growing fast my belly feels tight in the evening. My breasts have gotten bigger and my nipples are really sore.
3. Any appointments this week? Nope, had a pretty uneventful appt last week- just heard the heartbeat and asked some questions. We have our AS on June 11th- really excited for that one! Can't wait to see our little one!
4. Rants/raves/questions? The kicks have started, and it makes me smile every time. Can't wait for my H to be able to feel them, too
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self? Relax and enjoy all the little moments of pregnancy- especially with DH since this will be our last time alone for a while. Don't be so hard on yourself in these first few months, and don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 18 weeks, size of an artichoke!
2. How are you feeling? I have a lot of what feels like pressure on my bladder already. Not looking forward to when I am ginormous!
3. Any appointments this week? Not until June 4th. I am waiting for it super impatiantly.
4. Rants/raves/questions? Walking 12,000 steps a day plus 26 flights of stairs according to my fitbit. I am so freaking sore at the end of the day and I am not even half way, how the hell am I going to do this twice the size of a normal pregnancy? I want to make it to at least 36 weeks for sure though.
5. GTKY: What piece of advice would you give to your future mother self? Uhh, tough one. Probably to get help for anxiety. Dont just suffer through it with your babies.

21 weeks
2. How are you feeling?

3. Any appointments this week?

4. Rants/raves/questions?
just this nerve pain at the top of my bump. seriously ouch. and getting worse.
