Symptoms? See the randoms to relive my lovely symptoms.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Movement has slowly become more consistent. I love it. Cannot wait to give the doppler back to my friend. I’ll take a swift kick as reassurance there’s a healthy, tiny human.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? Pft... over, obviously. Side question: When do toddlers learn to not unroll half the toilet paper when trying to rip off what they need? I’m tired of re-rolling the dang toilet paper.

[Dramaphile]

Any Upcoming Appointments? Glucose test/ultrasounds to evaluate previa/midwife appt on Aug 3.

Symptoms? Heartburn, lower back ache, pregsomnia

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Well, my feet started swelling, yay. So far it's when I'm on my feet too long, not looking forward to when it becomes 24/7. Trying to extra hydrate and put my feet up and remind myself to sit down when I can.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? The correct way is over, but currently all our toilet paper rolls sit on top of the holder because it makes it harder for the DD to unroll half the roll and clog the toilet with it. Makes us look like heathens, but whatever.

How big is baby? chipmunk

Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? We found out this morning we are having a boy!

Any Upcoming Appointments? Had one this morning, a/s scheduled for 7/30

Symptoms? Heartburn, tailbone pain still, round ligament pain

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I'm a little in shock about having a boy. I really thought it was going to be another girl and I'm a little nervous, lol. It was so fun taking our girls to the ultrasound today though, my four year old in particular is really excited to have a baby brother.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? To be honest I never ever put any thought into this until I saw people writing about it on the internet. I still don't really pay attention to which way I put it on the roll. I'm a heathen, I guess!

Symptoms: last night I kept getting woken up by BH. Lots of practice for the big day. Also, my stomach hurts every single evening no matter what I do/don’t eat.

Rants/raves/AW/Q: an extended family member says she heard I’m pregnant again. I confirmed. Her response: “you’re crazy”. Okay... I didn’t know having a second child was crazy lol. This is why I waited as long as possible to announce. 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

GTKY: Over! I am clutching my pearls that LoisLoan has no preference haha. Under is just so wrong.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under?
I know I'm supposed to say Over but I don't actually care either way. Sorry!

Any Upcoming Appointments? Thursday I have my checkup and AS. Super nervous and excited. Haven’t seen baby girl in awhile so my anxiety is definitely up.

Symptoms?

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
Lower part of my uterus tightens up a lot and is so uncomfortable. Overall I am feeling more uncomfortable than I remember last time this early on. Having a hard time sleeping all night. I wake up around 3-4 and am up for a few hours. Hips are already bothering me since I am on my side. The pillow in between my legs does help some.


GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under?
Definitely over and if I see it under at someone’s house, I can’t help myself but to change it.

Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? Girl!!

Any Upcoming Appointments? This Friday

Symptoms? None really..

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Ready for my appointment on Friday. I am anxious about the lack of symptoms and I think I found the heartbeat a few times on the doppler at home but I want to go to the doctor to confirm everything is still okay. I've been doing the lovenox shots for a week now. They suck. My stomach is all bruised

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? Over!

[jillywilly]

How big is baby? a zucchini

Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? Blue

Any Upcoming Appointments? We have our A/S tomorrow! I'm so anxious for it - I'm really keeping my fingers crossed that everything looks good, and baby's healthy. I have no reason not to think that's the case, but still just looking forward to breathing that sigh of relief.

Symptoms? Kicks! Less fun, back and hips are starting to hurt at the end of the day, and sleep has been not as good lately, either.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? We bought DS' big boy furniture over the weekend, and started painting the nursery to get ready to move the crib and his old dresser in there for the baby before the new stuff gets delivered.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? Over.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Sleep is getting more uncomfortable even with my pillows everywhere

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? The only right way to do this is for it to be over.

[charlotte]

I’m laughing at expatmama11 changing other people’s toilet paper. Doing the lord’s work.

[ladybrienne]

When is your due date? How far along are you? December 5th, 19 weeks

How big is baby? Had the anatomy scan today and she confirmed he is about 9 ounces!

Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? Boy

Any Upcoming Appointments? Just had my anatomy scan today. Follow up with the OB next week.

Symptoms? Nausea in the AM but not as bad. I am actually feeling more normal these days. What a concept.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Besides one dance party in my belly I haven't felt this guy move too much, which is the opposite of how it was with N. They confirmed today that my placenta is in the front so that's why. Whew.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? Over. OF COURSE.

[ladybrienne]

Okay some of these "how big is baby" comparisons are making me hungry. Right now I would love a cheesesteak and a dill pickle.

I can't say I would do it at a random house but stayed with family in CA last week and I totally changed it. 🤷‍♀️

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I think I'm feeling some movement? Hoping it picks up soon.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? Over! Last week my sister was here and comes out of the bathroom and goes "omg when did you start putting the toilet paper on wrong? Why is it under?!". Ds1 must have changed it. I would never!

Any Upcoming Appointments? Had one today, all is well. My next thing is a repeat ultrasound on the 25th so they can try to get better pictures of baby’s heart.

Symptoms? I don’t really know that this is a pregnancy symptom, but I’ve been having diarrhea and it is super not fun. On the bright side, I’m feeling a lot more movement this week!

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? None this week

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? Always over. When my MIL comes over the toilet paper ends up under - I think she’s doing it to mess with me.

How big is baby? grapefruit

Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? Boy!!

Any Upcoming Appointments? July 31st I think...check up and GD testing. I failed my 1 hour last pregnancy and had to do the 3 hour (and thankfully passed) - I'd really like to avoid the second test this time around.

Symptoms? Exhausted. Still randomly nauseous if I don't eat regularly. Lots of movement which is really nice.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? So I've now requested 3 times for my previous OB office to transfer my records (via 3 different channels - their paperwork, phone call, and my current OBs request form) and they still haven't sent anything! I printed off what I could from my medical record online but this proves I made the right choice in switching. I can't believe the level of incompetence of the office staff there and that I put up with it for so long.

GTKY: How should toilet paper be positioned? Over or under? Over, obviously. My husband either doesn't care or is the wrongest of wrongs because at times it will be positioned under in our bathroom... expatmama11 , I fully support your repositioning stance.
