Happy birthday cakewench, I hope you enjoy your Chinese! I had thaï last night and thoroughly enjoyed my spring rolls and noodles How far along are you? 19w4d How big is baby? Ovia says zucchini Any upcoming appointments this week? Not until 14/08 Any new symptoms or changes? Pretty sure I'm feeling movement as I'm feeling things I've never felt before so that must be it, right?! Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? When did you start feeling it from the outside? H is so impatient to feel something! Random: What is your favorite holiday? New Year's Eve. We always host Christmas and that means MIL in the house for 10-12 days so we make sure everyone is gone by NYE and it's lovely having the house back. We've made it a tradition to get oysters and lobster so after we've picked up our supplies we spend the day in pjs watching movies, drinking wine and eating delicious foods, then go watch fireworks from our terrace at midnight.

How far along are you? 22 weeks today How big is baby? Corn on the Cob/Water Bottle/Spaghetti Squash Any upcoming appointments this week? Don't think I have anything for a couple of weeks Any new symptoms or changes? Holy heartburn! It has really ramped up this week! Because I am a super smart person, I forgot to get Tums and in order to keep it under control I need to keep eating Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Still wish I felt more movement at this time around. I feel it more frequently but it is not super pronounced and only once a day. Another random, even though we are not finding out the gender, our best friends are pregnant due at the end of January. I found out what they are having - I am the ONLY one that knows. Can wait until their reveal next weekend. Random: What is your favorite holiday? Hands down Christmas. It is just so magical to me. I love the decorations, family time, just everything. That is why I am pumped about having a December baby. H thinks I am crazy but since I know I will be induced, I want to wait until December 1 just so that I will have a December baby.

How far along are you? 19W6D
How big is baby? A zucchini
Any upcoming appointments this week? Yes! My anatomy scan is this Friday.
Any new symptoms or changes? The usual, tired.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I realized today that I have been pregnant for 52 weeks since May 2016. That seems crazy to me.
Random: What is your favorite holiday? Christmas for sure. I'm definitely going to make sure to get a tree and decorate everything before this baby comes.

Went for my anatomy scan part 2 today! Little miss still didn't fully cooperate. The tech said it was easy to visualize but not capture one heart image. My placenta is still low lying but it's 1.67cm from the cervix opening and they want it to be 2cm or more. I'm keeping my fingers crossed 🤞 that by 3rd trimester it will move enough.
TL/DR: I have a stubborn placenta and child! 😊

How far along are you? 18 weeks, 6 days
How big is baby? Sweet potato
Any upcoming appointments this week? Not this week but anatomy scan 8/8, OB 8/10, fetal echo 8/14 Any new symptoms or changes? Acid reflux at night
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? My oldest turns 10 this month. I can't believe it's been 10 years and I'm pregnant again.
Random: What is your favorite holiday? It was Christmas and day of still is but I feel like Christmas is so much work to prepare for now with the kids. I'm hoping to stop working at Thanksgiving and have a few weeks of maternity leave to get things done but 2 out of 3 babies were early so I can't count on it.

OB confirmed at my appointment yesterday that b/c of my chronic hypertension I won't go past 39 weeks which means I may have a Thanksgiving baby, but will definitely have two Nov kiddos.

I just double checked with my doctor today that I was still going in December. I will also have this kid at 39 weeks (unless my water breaks before then) and that would be in the first week of December. I'm due on the 7th.

Happy belated birthday cakewench!! I also need Chinese food tonight, thanks to this thread. And add me to the more relaxed about food this time around crew. My OB told me sushi was perfectly fine, as long as it's from a reputable restaurant and I avoid the high mercury fish. He told me this last time too and I still avoided sushi just to be safe. But this time around, I've eaten it probably once a week. Give me all the raw fish! I am still avoiding lunchmeat though. I completely cut out coffee the first time around and had horrible headaches, and (TMI) constipation. My doc again told me I was being silly and one cup a day would help with both of those issues. He was right. kensie5226, don't leave us!

How far along are you? 20w6d How big is baby? banana Any upcoming appointments this week? Nope, nothing until 8/24 (my glucose drink is already chilling in my fridge for the test that week) Any new symptoms or changes? Just getting bigger, and I can feel my hips/pelvis shifting when I change positions. My body apparently works a little too well producing relaxin. OH, and I'm already producing milk. Thankfully not enough to be leaking, but enough to leave residue on my nipples I have to clean off in the shower. My doc said I may need to start wearing breast pads or a tight fitting sports bra for awhile. I told him I felt like it was WAY too early for milk, but it's only been about 10 months since I stopped breastfeeding my DD so it's easier for my body to get back in the habit apparently. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? veganontuesdays "Hello in derrr" story cracked me up. My DD will say "Where's baby guy" and lift my shirt to pat my belly. Then she will pat my boobs and say "milk for the baby". I'm excited to see her be a big sister. Random: What is your favorite holiday? So unoriginal, but mine is Christmas too. This will be the first Christmas I haven't flown home in 13 years, so it will be strange to not be around my family. But I love everything about it -- the planning, the gift buying, the lights, the cookies, the decorations, the family time. My tree goes up Thanksgiving night and comes down New Years day.
