Upcoming Appointments:
This Thursday I'm meeting with my new midwife at the birth center! Super excited.
How are you feeling?:
I've been getting headaches pretty badly lately, and low back aches. Otherwise, I'm good 👍
Rants/Raves:
I've learned exercise DAILY is helping tremendously with my low back pain, which is great, except it's returns immediately if I skip even one day 🙃
Questions:
Is anyone here planning a birth center birth?
Have any STMs previously had a baby at a birth center? I'd love to hear y'all's thoughts and experiences.
GTKY: What are you craving right now?
Cheetos and so many sweets. Trying to eat fruit instead of cereal or other treats, but I'm indulging a bit, too 😅

Team blue/pink/green: pink
Upcoming Appointments: ack, keep forgetting to make my next appointment. Really need to do this today!
But I have had my high risk doctor and the genetic counselor, and both went well.
How are you feeling?: finally good! Morning sickness gone. Just sometimes feel gross after dinner but even that's getting better! Oh and the middle of the night hunger. So annoying.
Rants/Raves: I'm so irritated with clothes. I have gotten a bunch of maternity clothes from friends, but all of it feels ugly to me. I'm too small the rouched shirts, but too big to just wear regular shirts to work. The pants all fall down or are too tight. I just like hate it all and gettng dressed is annoying every day. I realize this is a petty complaint compared to things others might be dealing with. Since I'm a teacher I'm trying to hold off as long as possible before being out at work as I know every kid will want to touch my belly, and tbh I'm not the touchy feely type of teacher. I love them, but please keep your hands to yourself. Lol, I'm my really a hugger.
Questions:
GTKY: What are you craving right now? Mostly vegetables.

@gfgrump Feeling the same frustrations about clothes. My “normal” clothes are mostly too tight now, but the few maternity things I’ve gotten fit super weird. Ugh
