2. DH and I got some good stuff done this weekend. We also binge watched the first 2 seasons of Downton Abbey, picked out granite for our kitchen (intallation Wednesday), put some exterior Christmas decor away, etc. I started painting some more doors too. I even went to Target for a few things. I just need a week or so and then this kid can come whenever he likes. I hope I've progressed a little based on the contractions and hip pain I've been having. Oh - my folks packed a bag yesterday. How cute! And they got their TDAP, I'm so happy to report. ETA: I also ordered an US Weekly subscription. I've heard it's good to read to the baby

First - throwing up so much I lost 10 - pounds Second - continued MS but the back pain got bad too Third - Not drinking alcohol (esp. around the holidays)

1. I'll be 15 weeks on Wednesday. 2. Why does everything happen at once? Our bathroom has wood rot, our freezer crapped out Sunday morning, I'm trying to budget in baby gear...and now I have a cold.

1. How far along are you this week? 17 weeks tomorrow 2. Any pregnancy related AWs, vents, or randoms you want to share this week?

Well I've felt pretty great this whole time, so I'm kind of loving pregnancy, but if I have to choose I'd say in the 1st it was all the anxiety, 2nd (which I'm in now) is some back pain and my cravings for mostly junk food and not wanting healthy food. 4.

2. Any pregnancy related AWs, vents, or randoms you want to share this week? GTT today or tomorrow, I have to decide which day sounds better to me. I work nights and was thinking of doing it tomorrow before I work in the hopes that I feel crappy enough all day to not have to work.

1. How far along are you this week? 26w4d today!
2. Any pregnancy related AWs, vents, or randoms you want to share this week? I finally gave in and purchased some new bras. I'm clearly NOT a C cup anymore and my regular bras were not giving me the support I needed. I was amazed when I tried on a new bra, slipped a shirt on and saw those girls standing up straight! It feels incredible.
Baby was very active this weekend. I was trying to fall asleep last night but I just couldn't take my hand off my belly, feeling her not only kick but actually move around inside of me. I feel so lucky and blessed to be experiencing this.
3. What was your least favorite part of each trimester so far? 1st tri: the nausea and barfing. God, I don't miss it at all. I would throw up about once a week and feel sick on and off throughout the week. Luckily, eating helped make it better so I wasn't starving but maybe that is bad thing for my weight gain!
2nd tri: While the fatigue went away for a few weeks, it seems to be back. I'm tired all the time again. I just want to be able to stay up past 7:30 but I realized the other night that I will probably never feel completely rested ever again.
4. What is your favorite CD from your high school years? I listened to Jagged Little Pill a lot. And No Doubt!
