 What fruit or other random object?  Pumpkin

 Upcoming appointments?  Tomorrow for a check-up and a 3 hour glucose test.  Kind of annoyed about that.  Even though my original OB didn't have any concerns and the growth ultrasounds shows everything was fine, my OB retired on May 30th and last week when I saw a different doctor in the practice, she wanted me to repeat the 1 hour test because I was borderline back in March.  I failed that (156 - I was 135 the first time) and so now they want me to do the 3 hour tomorrow.  I don't really know the point, as I'm scheduled for a c-section in 9 days and likely won't get the results until at least Monday (4 days before the c-section).  Why not just have me to stick to a specific diet and do finger pricks for the last 11 days instead?  But I was too chicken to question the doctor, so I'm doing the test tomorrow morning  Sorry for the long "vent"  

 Any questions? Symptoms?  No questions.  No signs of labor, just a baby boy who I think is standing in the womb.  Sometimes his head is so far up in my ribs that I am only comfortable standing or laying out straight.  

 Food cravings/aversions?  Of course, I want ALL of the sweet things, now that I'm REALLY not supposed to be eating them.  

 GTKY:  (I suck at thinking of these, hope this isn't lame-o):  What childhood experience of yours would you like your child(ren) to experience as well?  I should have picked a question I know the answer to!  I guess fishing.  One of my favorite things about growing up is that we lived on the water and my parents had a boat rental business, so I got to go fishing a lot (mainly flounder).  Even now, there's something so exciting to me about catching a flounder big enough to keep for dinner.  

I hope everyone else is doing well, babies inside or out!

Sorry ladies! I kept meaning to start this today but my LO has kept me going non-stop. She is six days old and absolutely amazing. I'm so in love with her. She is going through a growth spurt so she was up for hours feeding last night. It was exhausting. Today, we had an appointment with the lactation consultant. My girl took in 2 full ounces during her feeding! It was so exciting because she hasn't gained any weight and is still 11 ounces below her birth weight. I think things will turn around from here! Hope you are all doing great!

 How many weeks? 40

 What fruit or other random object?  Something huge.  Watermelon?

 Upcoming appointments?  Friday.

 Any questions? Symptoms?   I'm just so sick of waiting!!!  I don't want to have to induce, and I can't stand the wait.  I feel like a wussy.

 Food cravings/aversions?  I actually haven't been so hungry lately, so I guess food itself is sort of an aversion.

 GTKY:  (I suck at thinking of these, hope this isn't lame-o):  What childhood experience of yours would you like your child(ren) to experience as well?   Being bored and having to be creative!  And playing outside!
