How far along are you? Size? 33 today!!! The app claims baby is the size of celery... Not sure I agree
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Rant- my cat is an ass. He enjoys whining, meowing and singing the song of his people at 2am, right next to my side of the bed. Rave- MY SHOWER IS TODAY!!!! I'm beyond excited for it, I'm stoked to see my friends and family, but I'm not gunna lie, and some of y'all know I'm all about the lemon Nothing Bundt Cake I'm about to indulge in.... Symptoms- Can't sleep for sh!t, back pains and now my fingers are starting to swell. I'm going to blame the heat though, as I've made sure to stay hydrated.
Upcoming appointments/classes? Next appointment isn't until 34 weeks. No classes.
Questions?
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? I would either repeat my wedding day or any day from my honeymoon. Both were such amazing events that I really wish I would have been able to slow down and really REALLY enjoy. I feel like my wedding day went by just way too fast, and it makes me sad. My honeymoon was beyond amazing. The full week my DH and I were in Cabo was probably the most relaxed I have been since any given summer day I had back in elementary school. I loved being able to wake up whenever I wanted and opening the patio doors to see and hear the ocean, and then promptly getting my drank on because the resort set us up with daily mimosa fixings. Ah-MAY-zing.
How far along are you? Size? 31+4, ovia says she's the size of a platypus minus the tail, ha! But according to my ob, she's actually measuring larger, a week to a week and a half ahead.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? I surprisingly had amazing sleep last night! Only woke up 3 times to pee, but got tons of deep sleep according to my tracker.
Upcoming appointments/classes? We had our childbirth class yesterday at the hospital. It was really good and I feel a lot more informed and less anxious now. I'm now leaning towards having an unmedicated birth if possible. But not opposed to meds if I decide I need them. Next OB appt is on a week.
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? (I'm feeling nostalgic right now....) If probably relive either one of the days we spent in Paris or Switzerland last summer. My favorite day in Zurich, we took a bus out to Interlochen then a train up to the North Face. The mountains were breathtaking and the air was so fresh. I spent a couple hours just taking in the beauty of the setting and photographing the Alpine meadows in bloom. That night we went out for fondue in the old part of Zurich to this darling romantic restaurant. Afterwards we stumbled across a Swiss horn band giving a public concert and wandered the cobblestone streets after the rain. The whole day was magical.
How far along are you? Size? 30w-6 .... I forgot the size it says oops, and the mobile app hates me.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Just tired, I feel like this is my standard Rant! Went and bought a couple things for my go bag yesterday just lotion and Nipple pads type thing.....figured I should slowly start getting it ready.
Upcoming appointments/classes? Nope, next appointment isn't until the 27th.
Questions? Anyone else let wind every single time they go to the bathroom...I swear ssoooooo embarrassing!
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? (I'm feeling nostalgic right now....) not sure at all......I don't have any that really jump out at me right now.
@sdLindenberg Have a blast at your shower and enjoy the cake.
32 Weeks!!!
Rants/raves/symptoms: I love the warm weather. I can sit on my porch and soak up the sun. If I could move down south by a beach that would be ultimate living!!
Upcoming appointments? Tomorrow I get to see baby again as I have an ultrasound.
GTKY: My mom and I went on an 11 day tour of Europe this past summer. I would soo go back to London or Rome. I loved waking up next to so much history. I could explore the streets for hours.
How far along are you? Size? 33 weeks tomorrow which is apparently celery?
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Rants - sent an email to my mom about one of our family friends who is due a week before me. She is barely showing so I told my mom that I feel like a cow. And her response was that my weight gain was a "fixable problem." Probably shouldnt have bothered me, but totally did. Raves - I don't have to go anywhere which considering there is 30+ inches of snow out my front door, is a very good thing. Symptoms - hips hurt, get out of breath rolling over, and some major heartburn
Upcoming appointments/classes? Just had an appointment this last Tuesday. Doc said everything looks good, baby is still facing the right way, and I'm measuring about a week and a half ahead. According to their estimates, baby was just over 5 lb as of Tuesday. Have another appt in two weeks, but next weekend is our weekend long childbirth/labor class at the hospital. My husband gave me a dirty look when I reminded him about it yesterday haha
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? (I'm feeling nostalgic right now....) I'd say one of the early days of our honeymoon. We spent the first few days in Capri and had a huge balcony overlooking the water with a two person jacuzzi on the balcony. And we spent every day hiking around the island, having afternoon cocktails at one of the cafes, and then dinner somewhere nice and some room service champagne at night in our jacuzzi. It was totally fab.
How far along are you? Size? 30 weeks today!! Ovia app says zucchini
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Rant: Had a hard time sleeping last night. Rave: Loving the gorgeous weather!! Symptoms: This is so TMI... I have diarrhea every single morning. Doesn't matter what I eat! It's so annoying.
Upcoming appointments/classes? Appt tomorrow
Questions?
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? (I'm feeling nostalgic right now....) I would go back and make things right with my Dad before he passed.
How far along are you? Size? 33weeks tomorrow, mutant celery
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Rants: I'm so sleepy, but I think I've slept the best the whole pregnancy, except for the peeing every two hours. When I am sleeping, I'm out, but it doesn't ever seem to be enough. Raves: had my family baby shower yesterday and it was WONDERFUL! My sisters, sister-in-law and mother-in-law went way above and beyond with it. I am so grateful to everyone! Symptoms: see rant. I am still really nervous about how much bigger I'm going to get, but what can you do?
Upcoming appointments/classes? Had the Happiest Baby on the Block class today, it seemed really interesting and full of great advice and techniques. This boy just needs to be cooperative and help his momma out!
Questions?
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? (I'm feeling nostalgic right now....) I would probably agree with most other posters and say my wedding day also, but I'd have liked to have done a little more planning and made different choices leading up to it. It went by too fast and I made a lot of day-of decisions that affected how it went.
GTKY: I have no idea which day I'd repeat. My wedding day was a nice day but it was stressful and I was exhausted and didn't really get to spend THAT much time with all my loved ones, plus my son wasn't there. It would have to be a day since I had my second son, and since getting pregnant with my third, as well. I'm gonna go with last Christmas.
@Tawny87 oh yea - my H spent all afternoon yesterday shoveling our driveway just enough to be able to get one of our cars out. I think its the most snow we've gotten since we moved in here 3 1/2 years ago. I'm jealous you guys didn't get it too badly!
How far along are you? Size? 30 weeks....size of a platypus without a tail, motorcycle helmet, summer cantaloupe, and a zucchini...
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Rant-I'm really over working, I'm exhausted from no sleep and I hurt all over so walking sucks. H wants me to go on bed rest, but I want to use all 12 weeks for AFTER the birth and hopefully none before. Symptom- I hurt all over...
Upcoming appointments/classes? Appointment on Wed. just a regular one.
Questions?
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? I'd have to agree with the rest of you and say my wedding day, and I would slow down and enjoy it more. It flew by and I hardly got to see my H the whole day and didn't really get to spend much time with my guests.
@shannonrnbsn : Glad you had a good time at your baby shower!
How far along are you? Size? 31 weeks today, pineapple! Or Asparagus. The Bump has conflicting foods. I'll go with pineapple though. Also, how do I still have 9 more weeks?! I feel like time is slowing down and this baby will be in me forever!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Rant: Normal Monday rant. Rave: It's getting closer and closer to lunch time. This baby is seriously trying to kick his way out of my stomach but it makes me smile. Thankful for a big healthy baby. Symptoms: The usual.
Upcoming appointments/classes? Breastfeeding class this Tuesday evening. No OB appts for a couple more weeks.
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? My wedding day because it went by so fast and was awesome, but it would also be cool to fix a couple of things that still bother me today. Mostly photography related. But everything that really mattered about that day was awesome and it was soo much fun. I would love to experience it over again!
Me - 33, DH - 33 Married - May 2014 DH - Low Count/Motility/Morph - Varicocele vein x 2 - surgery (8/11) - success! BFP - 10/10/15, EDD - 6/20/16 - It's a BOY!

Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Feeling a bit nauseous this morning. Crappy sleep due to excruciatingly painful legs last night.
Upcoming appointments/classes? Birthing class tonight but both me and DH feel like crap so i'm not sure if we'll skip or not..next appointment next Friday.
Questions?
GTKY: If you could repeat one full day of your past, what would it be and why? (I'm feeling nostalgic right now....) Definitely my wedding day. It just flew by too fast and I feel bad cause I didn't get to talk to many people there.
How far along are you? Size? 33.1 weeks today. Celery!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Rant: My cat is just awful. He hates my 2 year old (and has since birth) and now with my belly getting more and more prominent, I think he is catching on that there is another tiny human on the way. He has been pooping EVERYWHERE except for his litter box. In the most spiteful way possible too. My husband left his towel on the bathroom floor and the cat pooped on the towel and then folded it over and mushed it in too. UGH. Rave: I think I am finally *almost* prepared for baby's arrival. I need to stock up on some diapers but I have slowly stockpiled clothing and other necessities so I feel good about that. Symptoms: I am no longer sleeping. Like, at all. Hips and back in pain all night, no matter how may pillows I use or what position I am in. I may start sleeping in the recliner. Also, heartburn city and nausea all day. Fun fun!
Upcoming appointments/classes? Just had an appt today - u/s and NST to check on the baby since I have been diagnosed with gestational hypertension. Baby looks great, but my BP is not good (and getting worse) so we have officially scheduled my c-section for mid-May at 37 weeks. Pray I make it that far!
Questions? Anyone else have a scheduled c-section and feel terrified about it? My first was delivered vaginally but was a super traumatic birth for both baby and myself so I feel like I should be able to mentally handle a c-section. It just scares me. All you supermoms that have had a c-section before - you amaze me!
