How far along are you? 28 weeks today!! Hello 3rd trimester
When are you Due? 12/16/14
How are you feeling? Tired tired tired!
Upcoming appts? New info to share? Have my GTT test tom along with Flu shot, TDaP and other blood work blah.
GTKY: favorite toy growing up? It's a toss up between my Barbies (played with them til I was 13 and saved them for my DD who plays with them now) and my original Polly pockets. The little ones with tiny houses, saved those for my DD as well
Upcoming appts? New info to share? Appointment yesterday - everything is measuring normally. I waived getting checked until after 40 weeks - mostly because I just don't care to know.
GTKY: favorite toy growing up? My Samantha American Girl Doll. I freakin loved that doll. My nieces tried to claim it a few years ago along with my sister's American Girl Doll - and we put a squash on that. Sorry kiddos- We have them saved for our own kids
Feeling alright. Starting to have anxiety when I don't feel him move. My mind always thinks the worst. Cried yesterday thinking about the velamentous cord, and how it can just rupture and it be catastrophic. I'm gonna try my best to keep a positive outlook. I even thought maybe having a scheduled c section would be the best thing to do.
I've got my appointments on Oct. 6. Doing my GD test, my midwife appt, and another ultrasound with my MFM.
My favorite toys were my cabbage patch doll, baby alive, baby feel so real, barbies, and briefly polly pocket.
Feeling okay. Tired and my fibroid tumor is causing some pain. It acted up pretty badly with P, which is actually when I found out I had it. I think I'm fighting a cold. Stuffy nose/head and sore throat. Yay
I had my first Dr appt last Thursday and did a sonogram because he could get the heartbeat well enough with just the Doppler. Baby was moving and kicking and measured right on track. It definitely made it more 'real' and made me feel a bit more excited instead of just overwhelmed by all the changes happening before she/he comes.
Favorite toy: I loved books! I would read whenever I had free time. Still do. Lol Guess that's why I decided to become a librarian. :-)
I know @libberluru. I just had an emotional day. I read stuff I shouldn't have. I've really gotta stop reading stuff online, it's the worst, and I know this. Curiosity got the best of me. I was thinking of you too the other day, but remembered you have an ultrasound on the 1st. Hopefully they'll tell you then, and not at your Dr. Appointment. I'm anxious to know!
How are you feeling? Still tired, but not as bad as it was. Just getting anxious about all the changes and having 2 under 2
Upcoming appts? New info to share? Ultrasound next week to check the kidneys ones last time and make a game plan with the pedi's. Then I start my weekly OB appts including NSTs. Oh, and I'm getting Strep B test and flu shot. Busy week.
GTKY: favorite toy growing up? Loved my little polly pockets and my little tykes house. I think my parents saved it for me.
Not too bad. A little stressed because I'm presenting at a conference tomorrow, and am not as prepared as I'd like to be, and I don't have everything together for my substitute yet. Oh, and I have NO idea what I'm going to wear. Almost none of those things are pregnancy-related.
Upcoming appts?
I had my GD test today. We'll see how that goes. I'm pretty surprised that I'm only 5 pounds heavier right now than I was at 28w with Benjamin, which is pretty consistent with where I started out. I feel way bigger, but I wasn't also trying to wrangle a toddler last time.
@vitafelix my glucose test was today too! I have it in my head that I'm gonna fail for some stupid reason because my dr thinks in gaining weight too fast and I'm measuring 2 weeks ahead. Hoping my results are in my chart tom so I can quit thinking about it!
@riansmommie idk what your Dr. Is talking about. To me, when you post comparison pictures you look overall smaller then you did with J. I even think you are carrying smaller this time.
@riansmommie I keep thinking I'm going to fail too, but because I cannot lay off the sweets (mostly beverages - I swear I've had more soda in the last 6 months than in the last 6 years). I know that it has nothing to do with how much sugar you consume, just how well your body processes it, but that doesn't help my irrational side. Fortunately I don't have much time to think about it. Hopefully they'll call Monday after things have calmed down around here.
I hope you get your results tomorrow! Benjamin measured 1-2 weeks ahead for a long time, totally wasn't a problem.
Thanks ladies. They haven't measured amniotic fluid yet. She said she won't do that unless I start measuring more than 3 weeks ahead. I also feel like I'm carrying a lot smaller this time too and honestly each time they tell me my weight gain I'm like WTF I don't even know where it's hiding because I def don't feel like I've gained a ton. As of today I've gained 39lbs but 31 of it has been in the last 11 weeks . With how much I walk and I've been watching what I eat I have no idea how I'm gaining it so quick.
Right @LaBellaVida I'm beyond confused by my weight gain! I can't think of any reasonable explanation for it either. I can't even blame it on water retention because nothing is swollen on me.
Phew! Got my results back and I passed my glucose test! Now I'm just waiting on my iron results and my results from the blood I had drawn today to rule out viruses .
