Re: End of the month-ers check-in!
After 2 years, Injects, PCOS diagnosis and 2 IUI's, we were blessed with our beautiful twin girls!
Baby Girl #3!
Feeling pretty good other than finishing up the nursery is so hard when you drop everything and picking it up is killer!!! Still have some hip pain, but he is definitely getting lower and I know pressure is progress!
Thinking I'm going to have to drop one of my classes this semester. I am already having trouble keeping up with my two other LOs plus Dr appts and all that there is to do around the house.
I am ready for little man to be here, but I am also scared to death 2u2 is becoming so scary to really think about everyday! At least DH has a week off when LO is born so he can help our DD transition into being a big sister.
March 28
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? I am swollen, very uncomfortable and tired all the time! Also just mentally exhausted after the past few weeks of doctors appts
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns? I am very worried about something happening to our LO this far along. The baby is measuring large for gestational age at the 98th percentile
And my fluid levels are high so they are now sending me
For weekly nst tests and having me monitor him at home for movement and I'm driving myself crazy. The doctor said they will most likely schedule me for a 39
Week c section bc of his size and I hate that. But as long as he is healthy that's all that matters!
Hope you all are doing good!
I'm due 3/24.
I'm mostly feeling sad that I won't have a baby for a few weeks yet. It's getting hard with all the birth posts! Physically, I continue my unicorn pregnancy. I can still stand on one foot to put on my socks --- victory! My hips and back ache a bit, and I have an occasional contraction, but nothing to write home about. Finally had to take off my wedding band...bummed about that.
I'm actually excited for labor. I love my midwives, I love my doula, my husband is on board.....it's going to be a fun adventure. Or so I tell myself! ;-)

How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? I just feel uncomfortable ! NOTHING fits and my swelling is terrible and has progressed all the way up to my knee cap !! And yesterday my back was killing me to the point of I though I may have been in the early stages of labor. It was soooo intense.
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns? The painters painted the babys room the wrong color yesterday , it made me sad/mad bc I want to start decorating her room so I don't feel sooo behind ! All you ladies make me feel like such a procrastinator !

Feeling great actually! Kinda has me worried lol I have been sleeping like a champ, aches and pains are gone, and I have finally stopped feeling nothing but stabby towards H!
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns?
Had a major nest fest this past weekend even the ceiling fans are clean and ready! All we need is baby
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? I feel bad complaining because I've had such an easy pregnancy so far, but I definitely can feel it when I overdo things a bit. Luckily, I'm in a job where I sit for the majority of the day... I don't know how the ladies that stand/walk all day can do it!
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns?I am so anxious about getting caught up at work before going into labor. I try to get stuff done every day, but it seems like more gets dumped on top of me for everything that I DO get done. And the whole labor thing... and the whole not getting sleep thing!
I'm feeling fairly decent, considering all the crap DH and I have gone through lately with trying to find a new place, me being out of work already (not by choice), and him still being in school for a few more months. I have a burning spot on top of my belly that feels like I have a fever, but it's only over a few inches, and I can't figure out what it is... Emotionally, I'm alright most days. I just tend to freak myself out a lot and then the waterworks get started, and I could go for days being an emotional wreck. Poor DH has no idea how to handle it, and it makes him feel bad because he doesn't know how to make me feel better lol
Besides the weird spot on my belly that burns whenever I move or anything touches it, the only thing that's really bothering me is how my OB will react to being told I'm declining the cervical checks simply because there's no reason in my mind I should get them, and I'm a wimp when it comes to pain. And ANYTHING my doc does down in my lady bits hurts these days. Hell, anything I or MH do down there hurts! Eff that crap. >___>

How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? I feel lucky to have had a very easy pregnancy. However, I think some of the not fun things people have been mentioning are coming soon. I also am so over working! I can't believe I still have like 5 weeks left.
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns? My childbirth class has been so pointless and I think we might skip class 3 of the 3 part series tomorrow. I just don't see what we can learn that isn't in the book they gave us. I am also starting to think I might want to go med free. I guess I should start reading up on some techniques!

Physically not great not horrible. Aches and pains and some infrequent contractions. I guess I make a face when the contraction hits, cause MH keeps asking me what is wrong and doesn't believe me when I say nothing.
Emotionally and mentally I am having a rough time, but it is work related mostly. Although my shop is busy we have taken on more overhead (employees) and managing cash flow and payroll has been difficult. Meaning that MH and I are not taking our regular pay which is stressing me out. We knew growth would be painful, but it is just tough when it is all on us. This leads to the "what the hell were we thinking" mentality. In addition, our home reno's are a bit over budget due to structural issues we found, so things won't be done that we wanted to get done before LO. Oh well, we will survive. There is food on the table and a roof over our heads (although said roof needs to be replaced).
I think I whined enough above.
Feeling okay. Tired and a little anxious (more on that below) but okay.
When I went in for my appointment Friday my doc found a mild arrhythmia (baby's heart is skipping a beat every so often). I have a level 2 ultrasound today and regular NSTs for the duration. I am trying not to be worried (I understand this can happen. In fact, I hear it's fairly common) but it's hard to not to be a little concerned.
Also, like many of you, worried about DD and her adjustment. She's going to be an awesome big sister but she's been an only for 3 years and I know this is going to be hard on her at times.
Finally, our child care for DD while I'm in labor looks like a decision tree (If she's at day care, then...if it's a weekend, then...if it's the middle of the night, then...) and I'm mildly concerned that there's a scenario I haven't considered...
Thanks @saisongbird for posting this!

When are you due?
3/30
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally?
Physically tired, sore, and a lot of what I think are BHs. Work is killing me and I really don't get along with one of my coworkers which is getting worse by the day.
Emotionally having a lot of probably-irrational anxieties that I won't even mention. Also uncertain about returning to work/financial situation.
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns?
Just can't believe that as a FTM, if I go late, I still have the whole month of March to get through!!
I'm feeling...meh. I feel super sore in the mornings & evenings. But during the day I can get around just fine. I'm getting anxious about everything we need to get sorted out and finished/fixed before homegirl makes her appearance. (Basement remodel, bathroom remodel, putting the nursery together, dealing with the Red Sea of laundry on my floor..)
I think my subconscious is getting really nervous/anxious about getting "checked" & my GBS test that are coming up. Last night I had a dream in which my Mom & 14 year old little sister attended my appointment with me, but then my OB left the room and sent in an inmate in an orange jumpsuit & apron to perform the swab. He tried to bribe me to go ahea with the procedure with the fact that he would rub bronzer down there and I would come out "glowing." ...WTF subconscious. Pregnancy dreams be cray.
RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me.
You made my wedding day complete.
I'm mostly ok, with no big issues. I've been more emotional lately. I was buying a birthday card for my min yesterday, and I started crying in the store because I found one that said even though I'm grown up I will always need her. That's so not me to get mushy over a card!
Physically, my hips hurt and moving in bed is difficult. My ankles get horribly swollen by the end of the day. I seem to be alternating a night of good sleep with a night of insomnia, so I'm not looking forward to tonight.
Mentally, I'm stressed because the house is a mess and because I don't know what is going on with my job. I want MH to clean and I want HR to get its act together!
Yes! Me too. It's a little depressing.
My due date is 3/22. So I think I can be in this club.
Really kind of hit a wall the last few days. I have been doing great throughout this entire pregnancy and now I just want to be done and meet our baby soon. Definitely going to being trying some natural induction methods in the next few weeks but I really feel like this baby doesn't want to come out any time soon.
Like someone else said I am just counting down the days and wishing time would go faster.
I also really love my midwives and the hospital where I will be delivering and am oddly excited to go into labor and do this thing.
Feeling larger and larger everyday and it's getting harder to work. So glad my last day is march 12 and I am now training in my replacement! Yay!

Baby #3 Due 9-29-16
3/30
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally?
physically things are getting more and more difficult. I hate asking for help but I'm starting to have too.
Emotionally I'm doing ok.
Mentally I feel numb. Am I really having another baby!?! Lol
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns?
I feel so guilty for having another baby when DS is perfect. I don't want him to feel like he wasn't enough so we had another one. That isn't true and he won't feel that way but I can't help it.

Little Man arrived 3/28/14 at 10:32pm
9 lb 1 oz & 21 3/4 inches
Like most everyone, I feel okay. Physically I feel a lot of pelvic pressure. Went to the dr today and she confirmed baby is very low. My son was low too, so I guess that's just how I carry. He's 20 months and it's getting hard and painful to carry him or sit with him on the floor. Emotionally I feel better (in this moment at least) than I did the last couple of weeks. I think it's because I can finally start to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
I'm also nervous about having 2u2, especially the whole sleep thing. I'm weirdly excited to go into labor. I had a great experience the first time, so I'm hoping for something similar this time. I had what will probably be my last ultrasound today (she's been measuring small so they have been checking her growtth) and she's definitely grown, so I'm happy about that!
I'm taking the approach that this is a great adventure and am trying to look at the lighter side of things. Boobs leaking? Lightning crotch? 2am dance parties in my uterus? I laugh at you! If I didn't, I'd be crying about how unprepared we seem to be...wah!
It's not even March and I know baby is going to grow more, but I don't know where she's going to go! I think she's already pushed all of my nonessential organs out of the way. Now it's on to intestinal origami.
Also I've noticed that I'm getting mush brain again, just in time to transition my projects at work. I hope they can figure out what I'm talking about. I'm not sure half of the time!
Thanks, @saisongbird!
3rd Tri Feelings
March 21
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally?
I am over being pregnant. I had a breakdown Sunday, I don't want to push this baby out but I don't want to be pregnant anymore. Poor DH. Physically, I'm tired, sore, and experiencing sharp pain in my right side. Yucky!
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns?
I hope I'm not the only one who is terrified of L&D!
