Qotw: What's your favorite baby shower game?

AandStilltrying

1. 30 weeks
2. Round...very round!
3. Failed 1 hr glucose and had to do 3 hr. Almost failed it, but didn't. Was told don't handle sugar well and to try and avoid it. Also say MfM last week. Boys are great. 3.4 and 3.7lbs each so far. They've slowed down growing but looked good. Still breach and traverse. Assuming they will stay that way as they have most of pregnancy.
4. Last baby shower was Sat. So great to hang out with all my friends! Some cute stuff. Start our weekly appointments today! 7.5 weeks remaining!!!

Qotw: balloon under shirt and try to tie your shoe!

1. How many weeks are you? 32!  I never would have believed we would have gotten this far!  Next goal is 34 weeks!

2. How are you feeling? I am huge and uncomfortable.  My blood pressure is holding steady and I am grateful to not be in the hospital but home bedrest is getting so boring.

3. Any Dr. Appointments or updates? My sono last week was great- cervix is holding steady after a huge shortening a few weeks ago.  The babies are getting big! 4.2lbs and 4.8lbs and one is breach and the other transverse so we are going ahead with a csection. My OB and MFM are in a discussion to see how far they will let me go.  The pre-e will obviously be the biggest factor but MFM says 36-37 weeks at most and OB says 38 weeks.  Pretty sure my MFM will win this battle. I honestly think they will arrive before both of their dates!

4. Anything else exciting going on? Thank the Lord for online shopping- I got all my gifts ordered and wrapped already in case the babies thwart our Christmas plans I am ready!

Qotw: What's your favorite baby shower game? I don't love shower games to be honest.  I guess the one where you put a melted candy bar in a diaper and pass it around and have to guess what it is is gross but entertaining

AandStilltrying  I barely failed my 3 hour test... OB is kind of giving me a pass since i had the test after the steriod shots for the babies and they are known to cause blood sugar issues.  I just have to watch my carbs which I was already doing really.  But know all I can think about is how badly i want some ice cream!

@ksgsmu‌ it didn't help that sat. Was our baby shower!!! Lol. Not a great start to watching all the carbs. 1st hr. It was high side of normal, 2nd hr high and 3rd hr it bottomed way out to like 52. Weird.

I failed my 1hr and BARELY passed my 3hr.. but the doc said, doesn't matter you passed! He didn't put me on any restrictions.

@MissEm15‌ you got lucky! How big were your babies measuring then?

28 weeks and 4 days here! Feeling pretty tired. Restless legs at night and difficult to get comfortable at night:( See my OB next week and then my MFM for US on Christmas Eve! Last US showed my boys were 2.2 and 2.5, at 26 weeks.

1. How many weeks are you? 34w4d

2. How are you feeling? Done. Contracting every 5 min, tough to get through, horrible period like cramps that radiate to my back. My feet and legs are huge w/ edema & pitting.

3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? At dr now - just finished growth u/s:
A: 5lb1oz
B: 5lb
Great measurements!

4. Anything else exciting going on? Not much. Feeling like a ticking time bomb at this point.

Qotw: eh, I could take or leave the games..... Not a fan of being "center of attention".

How many weeks are you? 26w 2d How are you feeling? Lady parts are super sore thanks to all this pressure & difficult sleeping at night. Any doc appts or updates? See my OB next Monday & then my specialist on Jan 7th. Excitement? Not much, just staying off my feet as much as possible. Baby shower is on Jan 10th....hoping these babies stay put! QOTW: I also don't like being center of attention. Not really into the games.

1. 15w1d
2. So tired. I haven't really had this symptom, but it hit me like a ton of bricks the last couple of days.

2. How are you feeling?
Fought a terrible cold last week, but feeling better now. Major round ligament pain making sleep difficult. Last night, I almost woke up in tears. I have a pretty high tolerance for pain, but between exhaustion, pain, and worrying that something could be wrong, it was tough. My doctor's office suggested some physical therapy if persists and yoga doesn't work. We will see what happens tonight.
3. Any dr. Appointments or updates?
OB check-up on 12/15. Anatomy scan on 12/29.
4. Anything else exciting going on?
Nope - just waiting for next appointments!

Qotw: What's your favorite baby shower game?
Played baby pictionary at one shower. A lot of fun to draw things like burp, gas, blow-out...

Hope everyone is doing well!!

1. How many weeks are you? 31w3d
2. How are you feeling? Frustrated since it is so hard to move and I can do so few things on my own.  Ugh!!  I am feeling a little better now that I am taking iron supplements and know that I have very low BP.  It at least explains my dizziness at least!
3. Any dr. Appointments or updates? Our next appointment is on Friday and I think this is the only time we don't have an ultrasound.  He gave us the option to do one, but I told him (my OB) that I wanted to follow whatever protocol he uses, so it was fine with me whatever he wants to do/not do.  I think he just measures my uterus, listens to the babies on the doppler, monitors my weight and BP, etc.  After that, we are seen in two more weeks.  
4. Anything else exciting going on? I've packed my hospital bag for the most part, started adding things to the diaper bags when I think of it, have the carseats ready to go in the car, etc.  The nursery has really come together.  It isn't truly finished, but I don't think it will be really until we KNOW what all we need and where we want it in the middle of the night

Qotw: What's your favorite baby shower game? Duh, the game where I get to open all the gifts!! LOL!

I usually don't check-in over here (I have intro'd) I do a detailed check-in in PAIF, but I guess its never to late to start...

How many weeks? 35 (b/g twins)

How are you feeling? Pretty miserable if I'm honest... Im counting the days until my scheduled c-sec: 21!!!

Appointments/uppdates? My last apt went well, babies were 5lbs each at 34wks. No cervical changes this far. Next apt is Thur...

Anything else exciting? Not really, just enjoying the Christmas season and the tree being up. & I'm loving ALL the Christmas movies :-)

I don't have a favorite shower game. I've really only been to one shower that had games... :-/

Any dr. Appointments or updates? Just had our final RE appt yesterday and all was well, our babies are growing big and dancing up a storm in there.
Anything else exciting going on? I put in my resignation at my job of nearly five years yesterday, it was so emotional. I'm really going to miss this place, but excited for my new opportunity.

Qotw: What's your favorite baby shower game? I'm not a fan of games at showers.
