Baby is the size of a(n): grapefruit or bunch of grapes
Upcoming appointments: next week, phone appt
How are you feeling? Achy! Hips, SPD discomfort, and back pain are officially in full swing. I’ve actually been fairly nauseated the last few days, too. Assuming the antibiotic I was on didn’t help though.
Raves/Rants: Our weather stinks all of a sudden. We had 2-3 beautiful days that we spent outside, even planted our garden and now we have a freeze warning for the next couple of days. Ughhhhh.
Questions:
GTKY: what is something you’d like to learn to do?
To be more adventurous. My husband really wants to start going hiking and I think it sounds fun, but I just don’t know how far I would make it (even when not pregnant).
@momofmiracles31889 not sure if you’ve already had your appt but honestly she didn’t spend much time between his legs but that also could’ve been because he wasn’t cooperating and didn’t want to open them. But she was still able to eventually get a short of his parts and it was quick compared to all the time she spent on his heart etc.
I’m happy to hear most of the time the belly button goes back somewhat. Idk why this has always been my number one dread. Probably because I’ve always been self conscious about it
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Pink, publicly green until at least the baby shower!
Baby is the size of a(n): Grapefruit this week I think, today she weighs as much as a soccer ball.
Upcoming appointments: Next Thursday actually!! When I finally called to reschedule my appointment, I was notified that I have one with my actual doctor next week and that works perfectly for me!
How are you feeling? Achy. Sore back from work tonight, think I pulled a tushy muscle? Some tailbone pain, overall I'm ready to lay down again lol.
Raves/Rants: Zios. I mentioned it in the random chat but holy crud, if any of y'all are ever in Oklahoma City get some Zios. It's my favorite Italian place and Olive Garden breadsticks are nothing compared to Zios bread.
Questions: have any of y'all made concrete plans for a shower? How did you announce/how frequently?
GTKY: what is something you’d like to learn to do? Truly, I'd love to be a master linguist and Scarlett will live out the dream for me. Know so many languages and you're one of the most indisposable people in the room.
@raesky1111 I would love to learn more languages as well! Specifically French and Japanese. I want to teach my kids other languages I think it would open so many doors for them! I haven't had any plans arranged for a shower yet. My mom still doesn't know i'm moving and I doubt i'd be traveling to NJ before he's born anyway. I'm pretty sure my in-laws are going to throw me something, they like get-togethers. I would like it if my family could go to that one but there's no way they would be able to travel twice in one year if they're going to come see him. I'm not super hopeful to get one though.
@queenie_t yes to the crazy dreams. I could have a whole novel dedicated to all my crazy pregnancy dreams. Just last night for example- DH and DS were leaving some sketchy convenience store in a mall and I stayed inside to alert the cashier I had seen a weapon in the bathroom (the bathroom was covered in graffiti) and right as they walked out a man walked in to rob the place and I had to drop to the floor. It then turned into this crazy attempt to escape the mall as a family while a ton of criminals ran wild throughout trying to take everyone down. And I knew I was pregnant too so I was so worried about all of us. LIKE WHAT?! I don’t even watch crime shows or the news nor do I live in an even remotely dangerous area. This is why I wake up tired every day 😂
