How are you feeling? Tired. My hips are killing me. Some heartburn.
Raves/Rants: Had a great trip, but got home to a smelly house. Our dog sitters missed a lot of pee spots, so we will be scrubbing some more this week. It now smells like bleach for the most part, so I guess that’s an improvement.
Questions: No
GTKY: Only one month left of 2019! What have been some of the highlights of the past decade? Oh, so many. My entire life has changed this decade: finishing law school, moving, getting rid of my toxic ex, meeting DH, having DS, now this baby. So many changes.

How are you feeling? Baby is enjoying doing summer saults lately, so that’s fun, especially after eating a meal. 🤢 exhausted, back pain, heartburn at night...
Raves/Rants: I have “the class” this year... luckily we rotate so I only have them for an hour and a half. Every year I do elf on a shelf and I’ve never had children purposely touch it. This year, I trusted this class enough to put him high enough up that it would take effort to touch him. Students arrive at 8:15, the bell rings at 8:45. I walk into my room at 8:35 and my student teacher is holding the elf. One of my kids pushed the elf off of my smart board to “break his neck”. I’m out. 12 more days with students. Then the countdown to maternity leave begins.
Questions: has anyone else had their husband feel baby kick on the outside yet? I could feel baby moving and he put his hand on my belly, he said he felt “Taps”. Definitely baby kicks.

So many! Graduating with my bachelors degree, moving to Arizona to teach, seeing Justin Timberlake live 3 times (once in VIP and he bought us all shots of tequila), meeting MH, becoming an aunt, getting my current teaching position, and becoming a mom. ❤️
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Pink!
Baby is the size of a(n): endive
Upcoming Appointments: not till the 30th. Getting another ultrasound to see if placents has moved and to see if fluid cyst on brain has resolved. I think I'm getting the lab order for the glucose test as well.
How are you feeling? Mostly good. Constipated and achy in my back.
Raves/Rants: rave: excited that we're having a girl! I may have went a little overboard shopping on black friday/cyber monday!
Rant: annoyed that nurse practitioner at the ob's office put me on a 15 lb lifting restriction. I kinda laughed a little when she said that seeing as I have a 2 year old.
Questions: none currently
GTKY: Only one month left of 2019! What have been some of the highlights of the past decade? A lot of good ones:

How are you feeling? Constipated, heartburn and pelvic pain are constant. But overall pretty good. We did our gender reveal with our families on Thur/Fri and then told the rest of our friends / family over the weekend and told work today.
Raves/Rants: starting coming down with a cold/sore throat/cough on Sat and it’s just getting worse even with lots of liquids and sleep. It is just wearing me out and I’m exhausted.
Questions: None

ummm...
moved in w/ (now) DH / engaged / married 8 years
bought a house
got our puppy Oliver (Ollie) at 8 weeks (he is now almost 9)
*TW* became a mom to DD who was stillborn in Sept 2018 *end TW*
made hard decision to go through IVF again and now pregnant with twins
@coaster102516 I feel you with the cold. I’ve never had a cold pregnant before, it wears you down so much more than non-pregnant.
@ejoseph16 I haven’t had DH try yet as my placentas are both anterior. I’m starting to feel the babies more and that is making me excited and I can’t wait for him to feel them but the placentas act like a big pillow between babies and the outside of the belly.
@Kathryn0903 I’m sorry that you are having to wait so long for the follow up ultrasound. It sounds like you got some fun stuff for your little girl this weekend/today!
@gingers19 I remember when DH first felt our DD in my first pregnancy, every time he put his hand on me she would stop moving but one night she gave a huge kick right on his hand and his eyes got so big and said “was that her?” Such a special moment! And...I agree that no one should be weighed the Monday after Thanksgiving!

Upcoming Appointments: check in with my public health doctor tomorrow, anatomy scan on Monday and then private Dr on Thursday.
How are you feeling? Yay pretty good but while working I have a lot of pain in my ribs. Switched over to using a pilates ball instead of a chair but doesn't always do the trick.
We haven't bought anything for baby or pregger mom yet so I guess we better get on it before I can't fit anything 🤣
Raves/Rants: nah ☺️☺️
