1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 33 Weeks/Durian Fruit

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? Milestone: Less than 50 days! I have an appointment on Monday, but so far everything seems to be going well. My biggest problem right now is drinking water, especially while we're on the go. I don't think I'm getting enough water during the day. Also, exercise has been almost impossible as the pain under my bump is horrible. Round ligament pain, maybe? I'm trying to take it easier these days but it makes getting around very challenging.

3. GTKY: Are you prepared for LO's arrival? Anything left to do? We aren't prepared yet. This weekend, I went through DD's closet and completely organized it. The two will be sharing a room eventually. I bought some swaddlers, but we still need to put up the cosleeper, buy some outfits for coming home, and get diapers and such. I also need to purchase a baby carrier that I can hold LO in while chasing after my 2.5yo!

1.Elsie is 31 weeks today. She is the size of romaine lettuce/pineapple. 62 days left.

2.Last appointment was my 30 week ultrasound. Went well.

3. We just moved so she actually has a space. But almost nothing is in it. We have a futon which our dog spends time on. He loves his sisters room. She has an enormous closet, but we haven't filled it yet. SOOO...we have EVERYTHING to do. Shower is coming up. So we should be set after that.

32 weeks - Squash. I had to cheat and look at my siggie for how many weeks. I fail as a mother already. 

So super tired. And the heartburn, OMG the heartburn. Next appointment is next Monday. Or is it Tuesday? Shit.

Our shower was last Sunday and my friends and family are SO amazing that we are set with what we need! Now to get it set up and organized... Mentally, I don't think we're ready at all. The reality definitely hasn't set in for me yet and I don't think it has for Hubz.

1. How many weeks are you/how big is baby?  32 weeks/squash (but feels like a watermelon!

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? Hiccups, this kid has hiccups all.the.time.  And OH MY GOD the heartburn.  Had an appointment on Monday, looking good, measuring good, nothing new to report!  I want all the Snickers right now.  Seriously, I can't go to a store and walk out without one.

3. GTKY: Are you prepared for LO's arrival? Anything left to do? We are getting there, I feel like I need to do more but at the same time don't know what to do.  It was easier to prepare with the first because everything was new and I just set up as I got stuff from showers!  Now I have to think about what we need, and - the hard part - find it all again!   But we have a place for LO to sleep, clothes and my boobs...and just in case, I need to find the bottles....so we are all set with the basics.

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointment? always tired! still working 40+ hours, having more back pains and acid reflux (yuck)

3. GTKY: Are you prepared for LO's arrival? Anything left to do? we have not had our shower yet. it is next weekend, so we still need a good bit. We have a lot done so far just worried I wont have everything I need when she gets here. I have been still walking and try to twice a week do my pregnacy workout! (somehow still have gained 30ibs) Our dr appt is Tuesday so hopefully that is ok.

30 weeks/ cucumber 

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? 

So tired!!! I crave ice cream like crazy and I'm not suppose to have it due to GD. I just got back from my appointment. My fasting numbers are too high. She didn't suggest changing anything, she sounded like I was doing what I was suppose to but I have to go back in a week and if they're still high I'll be put on meds at night. My first appointment with the nutritionist is Wednesday.

I have so much to do. The only thing we've done so far is put the crib and changing table up. My grandmother passed away June 30th and we had to get everything out of her apartment, all the stuff that the rest of the family didn't want is in the nursery.... I'm having a yard sale (I live in the best spot to hold one) Labor Day weekend so a few people are going to come help me get rid of the unwanted items. I keep trying to go through the boxes to see if there's anything I want to keep but it makes me so emotional  It's going to be one tough yard sale. Hopefully after that I will get to work on the baby's room more.

1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 34 weeks, butternut squash

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? i'm also having trouble making myself drink enough water and sometimes end up w/ cramping which may be BH but i can't tell the difference.  i have my next appt on monday.  not really in the mood for lunch these days so i'm into heavy snacking during DD's nap.  LO has not had the hiccups one time and FX that he doesn't.  DD had them A LOT and while it was so sweet and cute the first couple times it really got on my nerves in the end.

ETA: spoke too soon!  10:30pm now and feeling baby's 1st hiccups.  i think i brought this on myself by putting it out to the universe that it had not happened and didn't want it to.  aye yay yay

3. GTKY: Are you prepared for LO's arrival? Anything left to do? if LO came today, we'd make do but sadly unprepared.  the crib is set up in his room and i've washed the stuff i'm going to reuse and the hand me downs we've received.   i've purchased one outfit i thought would be nice for coming home but DH didn't seem into it.  i did buy a box of NB diapers and a pack of white onesies.  still need to buy DD a new dresser so i can move hers into LO's room to use as a changing table.  *sorry this post is kind of BLAH, i'm feeling blah and sluggish today.  hopefully more energy and sunny attitude next week.

34 weeks today! Nursery coming along slowly. I finally found the perfect wallpaper and that comes on Monday. Then just need to put up some art. Felt super energetic yesterday and today of course pregsomnia had me up at 4am so I'm definitely lethargic today. Excited for Arcade Fire this weekend!

1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 34 weeks, two butternut squashes!

2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? I've been feeling like it's a lot harder to get around in the last few days, and I haven't even been doing much since I'm on vacation! I had my first NST on Tuesday, and my next one tomorrow. Things look good for both babies so far! They scheduled a c-section for September 18th (38 weeks) because Baby A is breech, and my OB said it was easier to cancel the c-section instead of trying to schedule one. I'm hoping Baby A moves before then, but really hoping for two healthy babies!

3. GTKY: Are you prepared for LO's arrival? Anything left to do? Pictures of nurseries are welcome I think we're as ready as we're going to be. The things still on our list are optional. Now I'm counting down the days until these little ones arrive!
