1. 21 weeks. Yikes! 2. I have been feeling queasy for about a week now. I didn't have bad morning sickness in the first tri, so I don't even know if this is pregnancy-related, but I'm thinking yes, otherwise I'd've just gotten sick already, right? I just feel yuck, and "off." 3. Girl. We're pretty set on the first name Leah, with two middle name choices, both of which we like, so we'll see. 4. Pre-pregnancy - hanging in the pool or fishing, with some beers. Or finding new restaurants/bars to visit in our area. Or taking some sandwiches and kayaking to an island for a picnic. Now? Uh, sleeping is pretty much my best thing (see also #2 in this post, lol).
1. How far along are you this week? 16w4d 2. Any randoms, vents, AWs this week? I've had six migraines since Tuesday. Blech! I'm hoping a pre-natal massage on Sunday will help things. Otherwise I may look in to acupuncture. 3. We haven't done this in a while- are you having a boy, girl, or are you Team Green? If you are still early on, will you find out? Any names picked out? We find
My chiro really helped with this. He suggested acupuncture if the adjustments did not work but they have. I am down to 1 every 8 days or so.
Ditto. I had a chiropractic adjustment about a month ago and I was really doubtful it would help my headaches. But it totally did! I had been getting horrible headaches at least 2x/week and after the adjustment I went a month without one. They started creeping back this weekend so I went in for another adjustment today. I'm a believer now.

1. 20 weeks, 2 days 2. I have my anatomy scan tomorrow and we're doing a small gender reveal on Saturday. I can't wait! 3. We haven't found out yet, but will soon. We are considering the names Milo or Miles and Louisa, but are not completely set on them. 4. Have a chill day and spend most of the morning in my pjs. There are a few local restaurants I like to go to for lunch. Then maybe shopping or take DD to the park if it's nice out.
2. Baby is practicing his kickboxing moves I think. I am sick of heartburn. It could be worse but it's still annoying. The thought that I will feel like this and worse for the next 4 months is bumming me out.
1. How far along are you this week? 33w on wednesday
2. Any randoms, vents, AWs this week? Have an appt in the morning, hoping my OB doesn't freak that I have been contracting more than he would like and I haven't called him about it. :/
3. We haven't done this in a while- are you having a boy, girl, or are you Team Green? If you are still early on, will you find out? Any names picked out? We are team pink and baby girl has a name TBA later.
4. If you have a weekend day with no plans, what's your favorite thing to do? Right now...sleep!
1. How far along are you this week? 17 weeks, 6 days
2. Any randoms, vents, AWs this week? I got some great deals on maternity clothes this weekend, including a sweater dress for $6.50!
My little vent is that I have been researching baby photographers, and there is so much attitude out there. Some who think that if you sell (or request) a digital file at any price you are basically a soulless Philistine. And others who trash talk inexpensive "Craigslist" photographers, as if their existence is a moral wrong akin to running a puppy mill. We aren't planning to use a CL photog, but BIL did, and they still have pics that they are very happy with. I guess people with lower incomes should just stick to Walmart photo studio and be happy with that? Grr.
3. We haven't done this in a while- are you having a boy, girl, or are you Team Green? If you are still early on, will you find out? Any names picked out? We are going to find out... In a week! I am really excited For a boy, I like Michael and for a girl Eily (unusual but not made up).
4. If you have a weekend day with no plans, what's your favorite thing to do? Watch the DVR, sink into a good book,do a little cleaning so that I can feel virtuous, and go out for a yummy dinner.

I so feel you on the photographer front. We shelled out big bucks last time for maternity and newborn pics, which are wonderful and I cherish, but that kind of money is not in the budget right now. I hope to be able to find a middle ground, but I agree, it's so hard.

Good luck to you. It's really tough. Thanks for commiserating!
