S17 weekly Check-in

[jorja]

@gotgingy, my daughter's nursery is grey, mint and coral (with some elephant stuff).

[wells2010]

EDD: 9/19 with a probable delivery date of 9/13 due to a RCS.

Weeks: 18 weeks tomorrow. I really had to think about that for a second.

Appointments: I have a routine OB Wednesday that I rescheduled from two weeks ago. 5/9 is my anatomy scan and a fetal echo to check out baby's heart.

Rants/raves: I'm actually feeling really good. I'm not exhausted anymore and barely nauseous. The first few weeks were so so bad, this is awesome. I love feeling little movements, but nothing 100% consistent yet.

GTKY: I have no clue. This poor third child. I really loved decorating the nursery in the past, but it is so fleeting. I honestly don't want to spend too much money. I also am moving my older kids in together, which I have barely thought about. My youngest is at a weird age where she is sleeping great in her crib, but could really start jumping out at any time.

Anyways, we are gender neutral and will probably do something very basic.

EDD: 8/31

Weeks: 20w5d

Appointments: We had our anatomy scan yesterday (changed team green to PINK!) Everything went well except they couldn't get a view of the heart that they needed so I have to go back in 2 weeks for a follow-up ultrasound and then again at 24 weeks for the GD test. 

Rants/raves: I found out I have an anterior placenta again which I already figured I did since I have only felt small flutters here and there.  I did feel one big jab last week so hopefully it starts soon. 

GTKY: No plans yet. It really depends whether we can move before this LO arrives. If not then she will just share a room with DS for awhile.

saltandvinegar I have an anterior placenta too and just this week I've finally started feeling consistent movement and being able to feel it from the outside.

EDD: 9/30

How many weeks are you: 16+3

Appointments, etc: I just had my OB appointment this morning, HB was 143. yay! Next will be my AS in a few weeks and then another OB next month.

Rants/raves: Feeling the baby move around has been awesome. However, heartburn is awful if I eat anything remotely spicy. I love spicy food, so this has been really difficult.

GTKY: who has started thinking about their nursery? What colors/theme are you planning? DS will move into what is now our office and the baby will use the nursery. It's already an ocean theme and we'll keep it that way. DS's big boy room will be kinda outdoorsy/adventure, but not over the top.

laurenash323 was OB happy with your cervix measurement today?

Didn't see my OB, but it was measuring almost 4...so yes!

Heard the heartbeat today. I feel like OB appointments now are just a quick HB check. I don't have any questions. I was hoping they could offer me more advice about my ear being clogged (it's just fluid behind my ear drum, affecting my hearing, but causing no pain), but they really had no idea.

Anyways, LO had a nice strong HB (I don't know the rate) and they drew blood for my AFP.

wells2010, DS1 has the same issue with his ear right now and he is on an over the counter allergy medication. You may want to ask your dr about that.

MFM appointment was yesterday, and it was an anatomy scan at 18w1d. We got to see baby girl moving all around and all her measurements were fine. It was so nice to see her on the screen. OB wants to see me back for the next u/s at 24 weeks.
