Week/Fruit:  29 Weeks/ ACORN SQUASH, I like to think since its halloween a small pumpkin, but hell I guess it is a squash

 How are you feeling? I am doing really well after I have started sitting with a heating pad on my back before bed...I slept so much better last night less back pain

 Appointments/Updates?  I just did my glucose test yesterday the dang drink made me quezzy. I am now going to be there every two weeks.

 Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently? I have not, we are looking for a rocking chair right now. 

 Rants/Raves: I have only gained 16 pounds, I am very proud of myself!  I havent been to hard on my eating or trying to get my excercise in so I am just happy were at a happy weight. 

 QOTW: Lets hear it..I know tons of baby showers are coming...so about that planning, how is that going? So after having to order my own invitations because my gfs were being what they are procrastinators...we had a sit down meeting to discuss what is at the shower...I think I can let go of the reins but I have a feeling that might be a bad idea. I think I will just lurk from the shadows and make back up plans.  ME a micromanager....I am a Program Manager for goodness sake give me a break! Its in my blood

I'm mobile so sorry for the formatting.

I'm 30 weeks today and I'm currently at my 30 week appt. BP is good at 120/74 (had bp issues last pregnancy and was induced early).

I ran 4 miles before dawn and I swear sometimes I don't even feel pregnant. So thankful this pregnancy has gone different than my last.

10 weeks to go Woohoo!!

 Week/Fruit:   30w/cucumber.

 How are you feeling?   Meh.  Exhausted on so many levels.

 Appointments/Updates?   Not really?  Unless you missed the post on Monday that my mom died.  Then that's an update.

 Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently?   Nope.

 Rants/Raves:   First DD was sick at the beginning of the week and now DH is sick with pretty much the same thing.  Send help!  And a bubble so I don't get it, too...

 QOTW: Lets hear it..I know tons of baby showers are coming...so about that planning, how is that going?  I don't think I'm getting any showers/sprinkles.

Hey folks, I am embarrassed to admit I have never opened a ticker change thread before. I figured it would be, yay, I am a piece of cheese/head of lettuce thing.

Anyway Jan 30, late to the party, mind if I check in?

27 weeks today! Feeling OK except for a head cold.

Next appointment is in 2 weeks, and I will be getting my fifth ultrasound this pregnancy. Baby boy's kidney is still enlarged. They keep telling me not to worry, but it is tough not to do so.

I totally scored a knitted Hanna Anderson romper at Goodwill yesterday, sized 3 months for 1.99. I am thinking it may be his come home from the hospital outfit.

Not really much to rant about here, unless you want to hear about the difficulties I am having with my aquarium pH.

Cheers!

Week/Fruit:   27w/rutabaga.

 How are you feeling?   Physically the best I've felt in weeks, maybe 2 months.  I went to the chiropractor for 3 weeks in a row and then on Tues night something in my hip popped on its own.  All of the lower back/hip pain I was having is basically gone!  Emotionally, I'm back to being anxious, see update below.

 Appointments/Updates?   Had my 26 week appointment on Tues.  The good news is bp went back down from 126/80 to 106/70 to don't have to worry there and I passed my GD test with flying colors.  Bad news is I'm measuring 6 weeks ahead on fundal hight.  So at 26.5 weeks I measured ~32cm!  The Ob does seem super worried just wants me to go in for an early growth scan but they can't get me in until next Thur.  So of course I'm worrying about what could be happening.  LO has measured within 2 days of EDD all along and at my 19week scan had the right amount of fluid so it is just a waiting game now.

 Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently?   Nope.

 Rants/Raves:   My husband is being super supportive which is great.  I was freaking out a little this morning so he offered to drive me to and from work.  I always think to much on the drive alone and freak myself out more.

 QOTW: Lets hear it..I know tons of baby showers are coming...so about that planning, how is that going?  My family shower is Thanksgiving weekend.  I may have one with some work friends in Dec but that hasn't been brought up recently so I'm not sure if it is still on.  I know one person is collecting books for the baby so that might be all it is.

 Week/Fruit:   31 weeks, pineapple! Yum

 How are you feeling?  Feeling pretty good. Pretty exhausted most of the time, which I just learned is due to low iron, so I just started supplements.

 Appointments/Updates? Had my 30 week appointment earlier this week. Everything is good, babe is measuring right on track. Starting prenatal classes tomorrow! Going to Physio once a week for a hip injury/tilted pelvis that started before I got pregnant.

 Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently?  I haven't in a couple weeks. 

 Rants/Raves: Baby is sitting very low and to one side, so there's a spot on the left side , low down on my belly that is really heavy. Its not painful, just uncomfortable and I'm sure that is only going to get worse as baby grows.

 QOTW: Lets hear it..I know tons of baby showers are coming...so about that planning, how is that going?  Mine was actually a couple weeks ago. It was good!

Week/Fruit:   28w, I am carrying an eggplant. Pass the marinara and Parmesan cheese.

 How are you feeling?   Baby is super low, all my lady parts hurt.  My heartburn is still under control thanks to my twice a day zantac and daily nexium, and I am hoping I can keep it under bay till delivery.  Other than that my spirits are pretty good and I have loved feeling the little guy kick up a storm, even if he hits me smack in the cervix every now and then.

 Appointments/Updates?   Have a sono on Monday to check my placenta position, because it was a bit low at my 20 week.  (are you getting the "low" trend I am on) Fingers crossed we have had movement!

 Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently?   We have officially bought all the nursery furniture (crib, bookcase, dresser with changing top, gliding chair and ottoman).  Big check off the list!

 Rants/Raves:  It hurts it hurts it hurts!  All my nether regions hurt right now because of the low lying baby. I am hoping I can get some good advice from my Doc on monday on how to deal with the pain.

 QOTW: Lets hear it..I know tons of baby showers are coming...so about that planning, how is that going?  I am about to start the baby shower circuit. My best friend (who is due 2 weeks before me) has her baby shower Saturday.  Then the following Saturday is my friend/family shower.  Then the following Sunday is my work people shower brunch, and then the following Saturday is a small luncheon with my mom, mom in law, sister and mom's church lady friends.  I am so thankful and grateful to have all these showers, but man it is going to be a lot of events!

 Week/Fruit:  I'm currently at 30 weeks, baby is size of cucumber. 

 How are you feeling? i'm feeling good! Convinced husband to stop at donut shop after appointment this morning. I had to have me some sprinkles. My back is killing me though, and I've recently discovered socks are getting harder to put on by myself.

 Appointments/Updates?  Had 30 week appt his morning. BP is normal (100/62), measuring on track. Heartbeat sounds fine. My doctor hasn't said anything negative so I think I'm doing okay.

 Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently?  Bought little Colorado Avalanche onesies recently. They are not doing that fantastic this year, though. Also got a cute Broncos onesie that says "Daddy's girl"; my husband is incredibly happy about this one. Hopefully, they make it to the Super Bowl so she can wear it for that.

 Rants/Raves:  Just my back. It hurts so much. My wonderful husband did rub it a little bit last night, which helped. I normally don't have any back pain, so this is a new experience for me and I'm totally acting like a baby about it. 

 QOTW: Lets hear it..I know tons of baby showers are coming...so about that planning, how is that going?  My baby shower was a couple weeks ago. I had a fantastic time, and a celebratory glass of champagne.
