    Team Boy/Girl/Surprise: we're going to find out in 2 weeks πŸ’š for now, surprise!

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of: a mango todayπŸ˜‚

    Upcoming appointments: May 3rd, then US May 12th πŸ’•

    How are you feeling? All over. Very up and down lately. Tired still but not like I was. Craving mainly fruit or sweet things. Cheesecake might be the death of me. I have an odd aversion to white meat lately. Like it smells great and then I got to take a bite and nearly gag. I forced my way through a chicken breast the other night cause I just wanted to the rice and veggies and I knew I needed some of it. It tasted good just not what I wanted πŸ™ƒ

    Rants / Raves:

    Questions: has anyone found a cute labor robe? I've wanted one the last 2 pregnancies and didn't get one. I am determined this time πŸ˜‚ also, got our diaper bag in, I'm working my way through the small stuff to the big stuff this time I guess πŸ˜‚ it's super cute though!

    (Don't judge my question, I couldn't think of anything else πŸ˜‚ sorry if it's a repeat too I couldn't remember what all we've done)Β 

    I grew up with a very artistic grandmother and found myself in love with all art forms. I think my strongest is photography though. It was an accidental discovery for me, I stole my grandma's camera one day and started taking flower pictures in her flowerbeds. But it is something I adore. I always loved taking photos, I love the memories. But it's much more than that for me.Β

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of: A mango apparentlyΒ  :)

    Upcoming appointments: Anatomy scan on 5/1!

    How are you feeling?
    Anxious for the a/s - haven’t had an ultrasound since the dating scan at 8 weeks. Feeling good physically.Β 

    Rants / Raves:
    I had a little bit of a lull at work, but all of a sudden it’s picking up again with a ton of different projects. Luckily I do like my job, but man I’m going to have to schedule some PTO soon before time gets away from me (and before too many more meetings are added to my already full calendar).

    Redoing old furniture. My husband is pretty good at woodworking and the like, and he’s taught me a lot about restoration. I’m so not a creative person in most other things though.Β 

    @andrawrmeda2 I finally got a maternity robe this time around that I love from Caden Lane. It doesn’t have the open back or slits so it’s not really a labor gown, but it’s so soft and comfy.Β

I did teach myself the alphabet backwards as a kid, if that counts. I don’t really have any random talents or hobbies that are exciting or unique or anything.

    I am a welder by trade so I’m good at welding. I also enjoy woodworking and scrapbooking. I also have a trait of always seeing the bright side, being very thoughtful and I’ve always been able to remember birthdays. Like I’m 34 and can tell you the birthday of everyone I went to kindergarten with.Β

    Questions: Not now
    GTKY: What is a random talent or hobby you have/like? Could be something you learned purposefully or discovered by accident! Not necessarily unique, but as a child, I used to draw all the time and won a couple of prizes. Although I can still draw, I haven't progressed much since I finished school. I don't take the time to draw as much as I used to.

    There seems to be a couple of artsy people!

    @andrawrmeda2 I enjoy photography a lot! What kind of photography do you enjoy more? Nature, landscape, portrait, etc.
    @cammie0526 Restoring old furnitures sounds like a really satisfying hobby. I want to try that someday!
    @anniemarie887 That would be a scary talent if it was in the wrong hands ;p
    @runningyogimama That's quite a unique thing to teach yourself if you ask me
    @jennaverhaeghe Your memory is quite something... I wouldn't remember the name of most of my kindergarten classmates. I know there was a Sophie but that's about it...

    I prefer people πŸ˜‚ but I started with flowers/ landscapes. I LOVE newborn photography. I can't wait to do this ones. I've done a few for friends/family and just love it πŸ’•Β 

    I love to draw but also haven't done anything with it since college. I have an associates of art and am getting my bachelor's of business administration with an emphasis on marketing so hopefully I work on a creative team and in advertising one day. I wish I could refinish furniture. I saw the most adorable galaxy crib the other day and I'm going the baby's room in galaxy theme and I just want to do it now πŸ˜‚πŸ’œπŸ’™

    I know a few classmates I wasn't friends with and a lot of birthdays I don't need to know πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    Even though it's literally Monday morning here already, I still want to post this thread haha

    Estimated Due Date / Weeks + Days: 19+2/Sept. 23 (every time I go to write this, I completely blank now, I'm probably off by a day or two)

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of: mango πŸ₯­

    Upcoming appointments: I guess May 9th for the anatomy scan again. Baby was stubborn and wouldn't move into a good position when we did it the first time. Guess they got stubborness from both me and my husband.

    How are you feeling? I don't know... people keep asking me this and I really don't know. Very disconnected from everything and anxious. I think depression may be being masked by dissociation and anxiety. We are on a vacation now to try to relax and it's okay. It's honestly making me more deoressed that we can't live in this city and need to live in our small dreary city...

    Rants / Raves: Rant: I can't sleep well at all. My body is just in pain constantly when I sleep on my side and my anxiety is too intense when I sleep my back comfortably. Not to mention vivid dreams of impending doom almost every night.
    Rave: I had real pizza yesterday for the first time in maybe 3 years? It was so delicious that I'm getting it again for lunch tomorrow before we leave. The baby was having a party the entire time I was eating it, too.

    Questions: natm

    I feel like I have an answer to this, but I can't think of what it would be. So instead, I will say I have a talent of attracting cats. Like the strays just know I'm a cat person and walk right up to me meowing. Apparently my husband has never had this happen but all the cats just find me wherever I go haha
