No Thursday posts yet! I'll give it a go!

How far along are you? 29 weeks this week!

How big is baby? 15+ inches, 2.5+ lbs, or the size of an acorn squash

Appointments this week? No OB appointments this week, just seeing the osteopath for my low back pain which is so much better at this point so I am going to continue to use up all the visits insurance gave me to keep it that way!

Symptoms? No real symptoms, I feel pretty good, its just starting to get harder to do things like clean the house.

Rant/Rave/Questions? I already posted this on WTF Wednesday, but my major rant for the week is that I have emailed two local maternity photographers to book a session and they wont answer their emails! It's been 11 days since I emailed one and 6 since I emailed the other. 

GTKY: What is your favorite thing about yourself? Gosh, this is a hard one, but I like who I am for the most part.

How far along are you? 29 (+1) weeks!

How big is baby? Let's see, pineapples or acorn squashes or Gizmos or Barbie convertibles

Appointments this week? None this week - I had quite a few last week with U/S, meeting with a pediatrician, birthing class, hospital tours - good to have a week off

Symptoms? Holy sore hips.  Last night was a mess sleeping. I just couldn't get comfortable.  Every time I wanted to turn over, I had to literally sit all the way up and shift myself around.  Before bed, I was watching TV with DH and my legs were super restless. I begged him just to massage them, do something! He did and I actually teared up because it felt so good, haha!  I usually HATE massages!  That's really all I have for symptoms.

Rant/Rave/Questions? Rave - my coworkers are throwing me a work shower in a couple weeks and they are throwing out the normal rules - guys and girls invited and it's just for the essentials.  With twins coming, I'll be needing all those diapers and wipes.

GTKY: What is your favorite thing about yourself? Oh boy.... probably my sick sense of humor.  I love to make people laugh, squirm, be disgusted, really any reaction!

@BabyBlake042017, I keep creating the thread then forgetting to comment!

How far along are you? 27+2

How big is baby? According to who?  TB says size of a head of lettuce.  My midwife says this kid is measuring 4 weeks ahead.  

Appointments this week? Not this week, but I am down to every 2 week appointments!

Symptoms?  Reflux, and a lot of shortness of breath.  haha.

Rant/Rave/Questions? I'm fighting a head cold this week and my boss is trying to take ANOTHER benefit away from my employees.  *sigh*

GTKY: What is your favorite thing about yourself?  My determination.  I went to school for 5 years straight, graduated in May 2014 with my BS, did my dietetic internship, passed the RD exam, finally finished my Master's in May 2016.  That included balancing my husband's military schedule and two kids.  I learned a lot about myself during my academic journey and that I'm willing to work my ass off for things I really want to achieve.
