Due date: 11/1, 19 & 4
Size of baby: zucchini
Finding out/team green: finding out
Upcoming appts: A/S next Thursday! I don’t see my Dr again until mid July.
Symptoms: boobs. And I get so full/uncomfortable, but of course that doesn’t kick in until I’ve already stuffed my face with a ton of food. Must. Eat. Slower.
Rants/raves/aw/Q: hmm well 1. I am ranting at myself- I need to eat better. 2. Last night lying in bed I was definitely feeling some legit kicks. So that was exciting considering I was complaining about not feeling anything last week.
GTKY: I work in tech. I was a SAHM until DS was almost 2. So I’ve only been back working for a year+. I think I’d like to SAH with this one for the first year, but there are definite pros & cons. Nothing is set in stone.
