Rants- the usual preganncy ones but now it's my In laws grading on my nerves thinking they need to sit in the hospital and hover tomorrow morning to wait for the baby to come out.
Symptoms?
None

I was lucky to successfully breastfed both my girls exclusively for 6 months. Hoping for at least the same this time if not until a year. I used similac or enfamil formula with my girls. Honestly they were easy and didn't have any sensitivities that required anything special so I usually just bought whatever I had coupons for at the time.

Breastfeeding. Just kinda knew thats what i wanted to do.
36 weeks!
What size is baby?
the bump says a papaya but last week he was measuring 6.6lbs so I'm guessing he is close to 7lbs now!
Upcoming appointments?
had my last prenantal and MFM ultrasound/appointment today! I do have a pre opt at the hospital on Monday so they can stock the blood bank for me. My c section is scheduled for the 19th!
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I am just nervous still about the complications and just praying everything ends up being okay! We are all shocked I've been able to keep him in this long!
Symptoms?
All the normal stuff- BH, tired, anxious, sore, heart burn

i am hoping to breast feed. With DS I BF at first and then he ended up on nutramigen formula due to a dairy sensitivity.
38 weeks
What size is baby?
Measuring big for gestational age, last estimate I got was that he is in the 95th percentile so I imagine he's the side of a baby elephant about now.
Upcoming appointments?
Had my 38 week appointment yesterday, my OB is hoping to induce at 39 weeks if my cervix is favorable but so far we aren't getting much effacement or dilation. Don't think my doc is gonna let me go past my due date though so things will get more complicated in a couple weeks.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
We're almost done getting everything ready. My mom gave us a changing table that belonged to a friend, which was very generous, but is has this weird top that no normal changing pad will fit so that's annoying. In other news, last Friday was my last week of work and I'm really enjoying the time off before the baby comes.
Symptoms?
OMG the hip and pelvic pain, apparently my loose pelvic joints are ready for L&D, wish they'd tell my cervix to do the same. I'm headed to prenatal yoga this afternoon so hopefully that will help.

Planning on breastfeeding, if I'm lucky enough to have baby and boobies that comply.
I am two weeks PP today, so today is Johnny's two week birthday!
What size is baby?
Much smaller than Jimmy!
Upcoming appointments?
Johnny has appointments every Friday until further notice, and has an appointment with a neonatal neurologist on the 27th. I have my first PP exam with my OB on the 25th.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Rant: Huge, leaky, fire boobs! Rave: Johnny is the cutest thing in the whole wide household! Questions: What on earth is causing my baby boy all these problems? Hoping for some answers soon...
Symptoms?
PP cramping, foreboobs, "diaper rash" from these G.D. pads, and I am a mess of emotions that I have absolutely zero control over. I have ugly cried once a day for the past 2 days.

Pumping/Breastfeeding: Because its good for baby, helps me burn calories and lose my baby weight, and last but certainly not least- it's FREE.
