5. GTKY: If you could guarantee one aspect of your pregnancy or labor/delivery experience, what would it be? (For arguments’ sake, assume that whatever choice you make will result in a healthy baby/healthy mom, because I am pretty sure healthy baby/ healthy mom would the guarantee for all of us.)
Re: Saturday Ticker Change 6/30
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 23 weeks, a grapefruit
2. How are you feeling? Exhausted and sore. My hands are a bit puffy more often than not with the heat. I feel like I’m always out of breath and acid reflux has been bad.
3. Any appointments this week? Nope, next week
4. Rants/raves/questions? For a few weeks I would feel her kick every night when I got in bed, now she isn’t as active at night. I miss the reassuring nightly kicks!

(For arguments’ sake, assume that whatever choice you make will result in a healthy baby/healthy mom, because I am pretty sure healthy baby/ healthy mom would the guarantee for all of us.) I wish I could guarantee to make it to at least 39 weeks... also no tearing.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
24 weeks - size of a GI Joe
2. How are you feeling?
I feel so big. I’ve been staying at my parents house and their spare bed is like sleeping on the floor, so my pelvis has been killing me.
3. Any appointments this week?
Anatomy scan part 3 on Tuesday. Hopefully Baby B (the girl) cooperates this time lol.
4. Rants/raves/questions?
I’ve been MIA because the app would not let me comment. I tried logging out and reinstalling it, but nothing. Then I submitted feedback and magically it worked again. It’s been so frustrating because I’m trying to be active here.

I would guarantee that I didn’t have pre-e or GD so I didn’t have to deliver earlier than I’m going to anyway because of twins. I really want to at least make it to 10/1.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 25 weeks, baby is the size of a head of cauliflower
2. How are you feeling? Pretty good! Been having some sciatica, and insatiable hunger, but can't complain
3. Any appointments this week? Nope!
4. Rants/raves/questions? Just wish I could stop constantly eating

1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 23w, size of a chinchilla
2. How are you feeling? Ok. Stressed with life, moving, house stuff. Physically: my feet are getting sore, I think my sciatica is flaring, sleeping is hard/achy, and in general I feel fat and blah.
3. Any appointments this week? Nope, next.
4. Rants/raves/questions? I feel fat. I never felt fat with DS. When I look at my belly naked I feel adorable and pregnant. With clothes on I feel fat and ugly. What is that? How does that make sense?
5. GTKY: If you could guarantee one aspect of your pregnancy or labor/delivery experience, what would it be? (Assume healthy baby/ healthy mom is a guarantee.)
Not sure. Maybe a shorter labor. 6-12 hrs should be fine. Long enough to do what I need to, but not too long.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 26 weeks and baby girl is a bundle of Kale.
2. How are you feeling? Sciatica, especially on right behind area and back. Other than that, I feel like my energy is high but so is my anxiety about feeling unprepared (FTM).
3. Any appointments this week? No
4. Rants/raves/questions? Feeling like I need to get things in order like I am not moving fast enough with preparing her area for when she comes home (even though I know there is still time). Just doing a little at a time so I don't stress myself out even more. Our shower is July 29, and I'll be 30 weeks at that point. Trying to cut me some slack and just breathe.
5. GTKY: If you could guarantee one aspect of your pregnancy or labor/delivery experience, what would it be? (Assume healthy baby/ healthy mom is a guarantee.) It would be nice to not tear and have a shorter delivery time, but if I could get just one, no tearing. Other than that, I know I'll probably poo and do other graphic things during delivery and I'm ok with that, comes with the process.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 25 weeks, cauliflower
2. How are you feeling? Good! I have sciatica pain and daily heartburn but overall, I still feel good.
3. Any appointments this week? Glucose test Friday womp womp
4. Rants/raves/questions? I forget how quickly I get out of breath now. It’s insane.
