Hey everyone! I realized that there hasn’t been a Thursday ticker change in forever (if ever) so I thought I’d start one. Hopefully there are other Thursday mamas out there!
This is for those with a Thursday due date... Feb 7, Feb 14, Feb 21, Feb 28

Re: Thursday Ticker Change 9/6
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
16 weeks, baby is the size of an avocado OR a chipmunk without its tail
2. How are you feeling?
I’ve been feeling overall better since entering the second tri but have been having really bad gas pains lately
Oh the joys of pregnancy!
3. Any appointments this week?
Nope! Not for another 2 weeks.
4. Rants/ raves/ questions?
I want to rave about my DH! He has always been super supportive but has totally stepped up even more during this pregnancy. He had to take over pretty much all the cooking and cleaning during my first tri and didn’t complain once! Yesterday he did the grocery shopping and bought me all sorts of treats I didn’t even ask for
5. GTKY: What’s your go-to karaoke song?
Spice Girls - Wannabe
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
16 weeks, avocado size
2. How are you feeling? Pretty decent aside from the occasional and expected aches and pains. Tired since 2014.
3. Any appointments this week?
Next Tuesday I do
4. Rants/ raves/ questions? Gd sucks and I want pizza.
Hey! New here
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 18 weeks, size of an artichoke
2. How are you feeling? Overall, not bad! DD started preschool last week and the early morning wake-ups have caused a slight resurgence in morning nausea. I had HG with DD though, so this feels totally manageable compared to that!
3. Any appointments this week? Regular OB appt this coming Tuesday.
4. Rants/ raves/ questions? Just started feeling movement! So exciting!
5. GTKY: What’s your go-to karaoke song? Oh gosh, I haven’t been to karaoke in FOREVERRRR, but I used to whip out River Deep, Mountain High from time to time.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
18 weeks, artichoke or sweet potato. The sweet potatoes I buy are massive though.... so I'm going to go with artichoke.
2. How are you feeling?
Mostly fine. Anxiety and stress are pretty constant, and SO gave me a nice cold. Otherwise, everything else (nausea, aversions, etc) is starting to decrease
3. Any appointments this week?
I see a nurse today to go over how to use a glucometer. I declined to retake the GTT because it made me throw up the first time and gave me horrible contractions. Now I get to monitor my blood sugar 4x a day for two weeks instead, which is far far better in my book.
4. Rants/ raves/ questions?
Rant: The nurse who is supposed to teach me about the glucometer was trying to guilt me into retaking the GTT again because it is standard practice. She made it seem like their clinic is bending over backwards to accomadate me because I declined it. It's just frustrating. I understand it isn't standard, but I don't want to subject myself to feeling like crap again. If I were to throw up again, which is almost guaranteed, I would have to use the meter anyway. I feel like I'm just cutting out the middle man. Maybe I'm being selfish, I don't know.
Rave: fall weather is officially coming and I couldn't be more excited. Give me all things pumpkin!
5. GTKY: What’s your go-to karaoke song?
Oh gosh, probably a catchy overused country song from FGL.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
18! Size of an artichoke
2. How are you feeling?
Good, no complaints
3. Any appointments this week?
Just did bloodework for the alpha fetoprotein test on Friday
4. Rants/ raves/ questions?
Yeah, the nurse who did my blood work yesterday! Anyone else hate needles and blood To begin with... and then she has to dig for your vein, sigh awful start to the morning
5. GTKY: What’s your go-to karaoke song?
No karaoke here LOL
