23+4.

2. How big is baby?
A chinchilla or a Barbie doll.

3. Team?
PINK!

4. Symptoms:
Nausea & some vomiting, hip/joint pain, crap sleep, sore/engorged boobs (but no leaking?).

5. What and when is your next appointment?
Three weeks from today with my OB. Nothing too exciting, just a normal check up. Last week at my appointment, the big kid got to go for the first time this pregnancy & my OB did a quick ultrasound so he could see his new sister for the first time. He’s a little more excited about another sister now.

6. Questions/Concerns/Comments/Rants?
We bought the paint today for the girls’ New shared room & we’ll be doing that this weekend. A’s big kid bedding was delivered last week & now we just need to paint & steam clean the carpet (we’ll do new flooring come fall) & then switch the rooms around & her moved in there. 111 days from today is the latest I’ll be having her & we have a major renovation we want to start in our room & have done by then.

7. QOTW: I don’t think I have one? Last year H & I went shopping & then to dinner at an amazing pizza & wine place and that may be my favorite to date. The year before, I made a pitcher of pink lemonade sangria & spent the day in the hammock day drinking and that was kind of awesome, too.

2. How big is baby? Gameboy


3. Team? Pink


4. Symptoms: Some nausea still when I forget my meds. Hip pain. Terrible sleep.


5. What and when is your next appointment?
My anatomy scan was this morning! And tomorrow I have a normal MW visit.

6. Questions/Concerns/Comments/Rants?
Today’s scan was perfect. I felt like with DD1 there were so many weird little things that came up, including a fluid issue at my anatomy scan, this was just easy and great. The dr who did it explained every single thing he was looking at too and every measurement so that was fun. DH also finally got to see baby.

She’s measuring right where DD was at this point, around 25-30th percentile. Except for legs, which were much longer, just like me and DD. Only negative of today was I found out I gained like 10lbs last month. Stupid holidays.

7. QOTW: Since today's my birthday, what is your favorite thing to do or tradition for birthdays?
Our new tradition is pizza and cupcakes since it’s also DD’s birthday and we both enjoy both of those things.

8. Show off your bump!

I also just realized that I can't have the ceasar salad I've been craving because of the risk of e coli QQ


7. QOTW: Since today's my birthday, what is your favorite thing to do or tradition for birthdays? We usually go out for supper and a movie. This year we had a little bit of a party for me since it was a big year. Just supper out with friends and then cake and drinks at my friends place.

I really just hate high panel maternity pants but low just do not work for me. I think i have an aversion to things touching my belly bc the panel is just weirding me out.

7. QOTW: Since today's my birthday, what is your favorite thing to do or tradition for birthdays?
My family doesn’t make a huge deal out of birthdays (except when we were little) so I’m determined to change that for my kids. DD is only two but I just want her to feel special on her day so the plan is to always do at least a special dinner and cake

DH is a high school principal so he’s off work until next week over the summer break. So usually he comes to meet me for lunch at work for my birthday which is a fun treat. Tomorrow for my actual birthday we’ll have a nice breakfast out after DD’s swimming lesson.

6. Questions/Concerns/Comments/Rants? Nothing at this particular moment. Although, for those of you that are about to be boy moms for the first time just make sure that his penis is always pointed down. O rearranged his during nap the other day and was drenched from nose to toes when he got up. H sent him into the bathroom with it pointing out the top of his diaper and then he peed all over the bathroom in fountain form. It was really comical but could have been prevented.


7. QOTW: Happy birthday ajm ! And happy early birthday adeline ! My birthday is at the end of May (4 days after my EDD) and I have always loved doing something outside for my birthday especially if ice cream and walking around downtown shops are involved. I do insist we go to my favorite local restaurant and get the 7 layer chocolate cake now though because it's the best cake I've ever had. Ever.


8. Show off your bump! No pic this week.

I’m worried about gestational diabetes since I’ve been “needing” sugary drinks at different times during the day/night. It’s also making me nervous that movements aren’t consistent at this stage and sometimes hard to differentiate from digestive gurgling.
