  • @AmMcc12 I had the same issue at my anatomy scan! They could not get the spine or confirm sex (this little one had their legs crossed 😆).

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of: an endive 

    Upcoming appointments: July 6. Sono for follow up to anatomy scan.

    How are you feeling: tired. Bigger. Irritable. Hot. 

    Rants / Raves: everything that they could see during the anatomy scan looked good so that was a relief. I always feel better after that 20 week appt. 

    Baby has been kicking and punching me! This is by far my favorite part of pregnant 💜

    Questions: none

    GTKY: What is your favorite random fact? Fact? What? This feels like too much brain power for me right now 😆 🤣 😂

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of: a French press

    Upcoming appointments: Midwife appointment on June 28

    How are you feeling: Feeling pretty good, lots of kicks but not really feeling any other symptoms these days.

    Rants / Raves: Rave: I DON'T HAVE GD! My test results came in yesterday and I am thrilled! I'll still be trying to eat well, but eating well can include all the fruit and if I want to have a treat once in a while, I can. I'm so happy. My ultrasound yesterday went really well and they didn't see any slowing of the heart rate, which was a huge relief.

    Rant: My placenta is still sitting really low and I'm now on full pelvic rest. We're still at the point where it's significantly more likely that it will move up before the end of the pregnancy, but still not super thrilled about it.

    Questions:

    GTKY: What is your favorite random fact? Black sapote, a fruit native to Central and South America, tastes like chocolate pudding.

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of: 

    Upcoming appointments: 6/19 midwife appt

    How are you feeling: big. Also having trouble sleeping, I wake up and it feels like my thighs have been under bricks? And getting hand numbness already...

    Rants / Raves: I've been listening to the 1000 Hours Outside podcast and really enjoying it. My toddler loves being outside so much that he tried to skip dinner today to stay at the playground. 

    Questions:

    GTKY: What is your favorite random fact? The k in knife wasn't always silent. (I took a linguistics course last year.)

  • @lindz42 OK I need an explanation about this knife thing 😆
  • @alpacamama2 lol I don't remember the whole thing but basically... the word was originally pronounced k-nife.. but as the word continued to be used, some people didn't pronounce the k, and more people just gradually stopped pronouncing the k.

    Interesting baby fact / Baby is the size of: a coconut

    Upcoming appointments: Anatomy scan is this Friday 

    How are you feeling: Overwhelmed. My blood sugar has still been acting up even with insulin and low carbs. I worry about the baby non stop. 

    Rants / Raves: I am so excited about the scan on Friday. I am nervous because of being high risk but I’ve been feeling the baby very consistently for a couple of weeks now so I have high hopes! 

    Questions: none

    GTKY: What is your favorite random fact? My favorite movie ever is The Big Lebowski, so I’m full of facts about the movie. My favorite random fact is that while much of the movie takes place in a bowling alley, the Dude (the main character) is never once seen actually bowling.
