Nothing major. My SIL's brother (no relation to me) found out we're having a boy and knows we have a girl, so he said "oh good, now they can be done". I was like, thanks for planning my family for me buddy. In reality we are done, but we were done no matter if it was a girl or boy

I was asked by two people, "Oh, was it planned?" I'm a financially stable 31-year-old married woman, so if I wanted to get pregnant, that'd be pretty reasonable. I also hold a doctoral degree, so I'm pretty sure I know how birth control works.
This nosy question just aggravates me, so I answered, "So you're asking whether I'm crazy enough to want a baby or too stupid to know how birth control works?" Maybe next time they won't ask.
26 today!!

Fruit size: Califlower?

GTKY: Girl at the sandwich shop yesterday made a comment about how I must be ready to go, and at first I didn't pick up on what she was saying, then she pointed to my stomach and said again that I must be ready to go. I just stared at her because I honestly didn't make the connection to what she was talking about. Finally she asked when I would be "going" and I replied "End of October". Her response was "wow, well you much be ready to go already". Um no, I'd rather wait a few more months until the baby is fully developed, but thanks for asking. Geez I didn't think I was that big.
Number of weeks: 28 weeks!
Fruit size:egg plant

GTKY: I had a friend tell me that I look huge for being 26 weeks and if Im sure that Im not having twins. WTF?! I wanted to slap her!

Fruit size: Eggplant, that sounds pretty big
Symptoms/Updates: I truly need to make a chrio appt. And so fqar 3 times I have felt like I am going to faint. Once I did on the massage table, then I felt the same feeling again at work and yesterday at the dentist. Like all of a sudden I start to bead sweat on my forehead, feel dizzy and like I might vomit. Weird right?
GTKY: The "You must be having twins" comment is really starting the piss me off. Had the random cashier and Bed Bath & Beyond say it the other day. And I'm only up 4lbs grrrr.

Weeks:28
Fruit: eggplant
Symptoms/updates: overall feeling pretty good but I've started feeling nauseous again, and waking up early to pee
GTKY: it's a lot of the same, one person tells me I'm too small then 20 seconds later another person tells me I'm huge for 28 weeks. One patient told me to "enjoy my period of confinement"
Number of weeks: 27
Fruit size: Rutabaga
Symptoms/Updates: low iron by passed the glucose test! Also my bump is like hudini the way it comes and goes!
GTKY: Since people tend to say inappropriate things to pregnant women... What is the one comment you've heard since being pregnant that you think was most inappropriate or rude? It's been pretty good sofar actually but since my bump goes all hide n seek on me most days people exclaim how non pregnant I look lol thanks I'm just big and fat
Fruit: Acorn Squash
Symptoms: I was lying in bed and randomly developed a rash on both wrists; apparently the hormones will do that to you! Vivid dreams are back from first tri, though not sexy ones ::humph:: And I passed my glucose test, but ended up in the hospital a few days later lightheaded since my doc didn't tell me my sugar was too LOW after the test.
GTKY: I've been lucky with nobody really being too inappropriate. One guy at work told me "I can't wait till you have the baby so I can comment on how much weight you've lost!" Um..... WTF????? For some reason nobody asks me what I'm having, it's always "oh you're having a girl?" Which is creepy. Get your xray eyes out of my uterus!
Fruit size: Acorn Squash
Symptoms/Updates: Starting to feel more movement on the right side. Still sporadic, but until a few weeks ago I didn't feel any. Only on the left side.

Waiting on results of 1 hour GD test. Baby is having fun doing acrobatics and now reminds me of a shark! Appt. with high risk Dr. tomorrow and will also get some baby measurements. Other than a horrific blast of pain on my right side when I laughed/coughed last night, no new symptoms, and luckily that muscle cramp/spasm thing went away.
None, so far. Bed rest seems to help with avoiding those people!
I totally had to hunt this down.
