Re: Tuesday Ticker Change 2/21
How far along are you? 37 weeks
How big is baby? Romaine lettuce
Upcoming appointments this week? I had one yesterday and I'll have another on Monday.
Any new symptoms or changes? A measured a week smaller than I did last week. My OB says it's normal to measure between 35-39 at this point and I measured at 35. Still a little concerning to me.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I feel like we are getting closer to having things done for the baby, but then I always think of more! It's about to drive me crazy!
GTKY: If you could have one super power, what would it be and why? I'm going to have to say fly. I feel like it would be faster way to get around and fun!
How far along are you? 37 weeks (yay for early term!)
How big is baby? Romaine lettuce
Upcoming appointments this week? I have a weekly appointment on Friday morning. Everything was fine at my appt last week and my GBS test came back negative!!
Any new symptoms or changes? Period-like cramps started last night but went away and I haven't had any today. Also, not being able to get comfortable when sleeping.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I am SO ready to meet this baby!! DH completely finished the crib this past weekend and mine and baby's hospital bags are packed. Any time now....
GTKY: If you could have one super power, what would it be and why? Oooh good question. I definitely don't care about being able to fly but the ability to travel through time would be super cool.

Baby #1 EDD: 3/20/17
How far along are you? 35w
How big is baby? Pineapple (she was 4lb 9oz a week ago at my us so I figure she is close to 5lbs now)
Upcoming appointments this week? Regular OB check tomorrow.
Any new symptoms or changes? Still the same. Reflux, swelling of hands & feet, & hemerrhoids.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I am working on a super high profile special initiative at work & have a co-lead. She isn't much of a leader & I am seriously worrried about her taking over the project when I am out. I feel like a meeting with my manager is in order. I have expressed some concerns to the next level project manager and they agree, so I am not totally off base.
GTKY: If you could have one super power, what would it be and why? I think I would like to be able to teleport. So much time would be saved traveling instantaneously! Or be able to eat whatever I want and not gain weight/be fit!

How big is baby? Winter melon
Upcoming appointments this week? I had one today. Measuring on track, my blood pressure and baby's HR continues to be fine. Declined a cervical check because I wasn't dilated at all last week and don't really feel that different this week.
Any new symptoms or changes? Same- peeing all the time, on/off swelling. Becoming more uncomfortable to sleep!
Rants/Raves/Questions? My OB actually suggested doing a membrane sweep next week if I wanted....I was kinda surprised he would say that, I'm not even overdue yet. I don't think I'm going to...I want her to come when she's ready! Guess we will see how I'm progressing over the next couple weeks.
GTKY: If you could have one super power, what would it be and why? I think I would like to be invisible, sometimes I wish I knew what people were talking about when I'm not around...I'm super nosey!
How far along are you? 35 weeks!
How big is baby? Pineapple
Upcoming appointments this week? Yes, Friday morning. I really wish I could find out how big baby actually is. I haven't had a real measurement of him in over 10 weeks & at that point he was measuring about 3 weeks ahead... I'm supposed to get one more US after next week sometime but have been told they're not going to measure him, just check his position to confirm he's not breech.
Any new symptoms or changes? Increased back pain & difficulty catching my breath lately.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm so tired of getting asked 1000 times a day "when are you due?" by every random person & having to answer all the questions that always follow. Every interaction I have with customers at work starts out with this & I just feel so fake as I'm smiling back & saying I feel good & having to engage in the same annoying conversation each time...I wish I could hide my bump sometimes - at least while I'm at work.
GTKY: If you could have one super power, what would it be and why? Hmm this is hard... Part of me would want to be able to read minds of both people & animals, but another part would rather be able to have superhero capabilities to rescue others from danger or bad situations, like knowing things in advance to protect them.

How big is baby? Winter melon
Upcoming appointments this week? Had one yesterday. Baby is measuring at 43 weeks and dr said he thinks I'm going to go past my due date because baby is not engaged in my pelvis and I'm only a fingertip dilated and only just starting to thin out. He ordered a growth scan for next week to see exactly how big this baby is.
Any new symptoms or changes? Swelling in my feet has really ramped up lately. I go to bed with them swollen, wake up with them still swollen.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Worried and scared about having a C section because this baby is big and my body doesn't seem to want to prepare for labor. I was really hoping to avoid a C section, but whatever will get baby out safest.
GTKY: If you could have one super power, what would it be and why? I would love to be able to fly! I think it would be awesome to be able to get where I want/need to go quickly and without a car.
