Rants/Raves/Questions? Spring break starts after today! But, my husband is leaving with his band for 2 1/2 weeks for tour. 

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy? I LOVE the dresser we bought on Facebook. It's been refinished and is beautiful. I still need to choose and buy crib bedding. I'm being very picky, which I shouldn't.

How big is baby? Asparagus

Any appointments this week? Monday - we'll schedule my c-section date too!

Symptoms? Heartburn, leg cramps, tiredness

Cravings? Still wanting everything salty, especially french fries

Team Pink/Blue/Green? Pink

Rants/Raves/Questions? Sometimes I'm just so uncomfortable and miserable I wonder how I'm going to make it the next 2 months   (But DH came home and surprised me with ice cream last night so that lifted my spirits!)

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy? I bought DD and the baby matching leggings! I am beyond excited to see them in them (way more than I thought I would be).  I totally understand all those matching outfits that my sister and I had haha.  I'm also excited to buy "big sister" and "little sister" stuff!

@MollyandD I'm so jealous that your spring break is starting! I love a good refinished piece of furniture!
@jdebaieI hope you get feeling better soon, hang in there! Oh man, matching leggings sound adorable!

How far along are you? 30 weeks

How big is baby? A large cabbage

Any appointments this week? nope

Symptoms? So tired this week. Baby has been moving so much lately and I can see most of the flips! I think it is so awesome, but it really freaks DH out.

Cravings? Not really

Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green

Rants/Raves/Questions? I've had the longest week ever so I haven't really posted anything, but I hope everyone is doing great! I've also been starting to panic about this little one getting here. It is getting so close and becoming more real!

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy? My stepdad made a beautiful toy chest that matches the rest of the furniture in the nursery and I love it! I'm looking forward to buying a halo bassinest for the first few months. It is crazy expensive, so I really hope it works out for us! I'm also excited to possibly get (if breastfeeding works out) a pump bag big enough to fit all of my stuff in it!

How far along are you? 31 weeks! 

How big is baby? A foam finger. Ha that's a weird one.

Any appointments this week? I had an appointment this past Tuesday. I was in the waiting room longer than the appointment! Every two week appointments are kind of obnoxious, but I know they are important. 

Symptoms? Sometime I feel like this kid is going to kick his way out of my stomach. His movements are rough. 

Cravings? Just salty stuff (been that way my whole pregnancy).

Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue

Rants/Raves/Questions? I went to the hospital tour this week. I was the only STM and I was the only one that asked questions! I like the hospital a lot. All I could think was "I can't believe I'm doing this again." 

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy? Man I love so much stuff. I bought a One Z Nursing Pillow. It's huge and I am really excited about it. I got the Halo Bassinest and I splurged and got the Baby Home Air Baby Cot! I also am excited about my Milk Snob cover.
I still have to buy the coming home outfit! I'm still undecided. I've also been waiting on what size to buy. Surprisingly this guy is "normal" weight and I just assumed he would be larger like DD. I may have to buy a couple newborn outfits! 

@mspacman34 I got our Halo Bassinest from Facebook Marketplace for $100! The woman who sold it to me included the organic mattress and sheets! Definitely check it out, a bunch of the stuff we buy for these kiddos can be bought second hand! 

@jdebaie I feel you. I am so uncomfortable. I don't know how I am going to make it.

@MollyandD I was picky about crib bedding with DD. I ended up buying 3 sheets sets I love since that really all they use!

I'm excited to baby wear in the Lillebaby carrier I bought. I'm also excited for baby to wear the little outfit DD picked for him. I'm looking forward to buying a little brother/big sister shirt.

Cravings? 
Nada 

Team Pink/Blue/Green? 
Green!

Rants/Raves/Questions? 
Well. This week I found stretch marks. 6 of them all in one spot. Damn! I was hoping to go just 4 more weeks without them! 

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy?
Well the only thing we've really bought thus far is our car seat/stroller combo and some newborn size cloth diapers. I do love how adorable the little diapers are, but I'm absolutely obsessed with our stroller and car seat! It's the Peg Perego book cross system. It is ah-mazing. I'm incredibly impressed with how light it is, how easy the stroller is to maneuver and how easily it folds and unfolds. I'm in love. We're waiting to buy basically everything else until after the shower (03/25)

How far along are you? 32w

How big is baby? Well, I just got back from my US and while I know they're not very accurate they said 4lb 11oz :O!!! According to my apps: Winter squash, Pain d'epi, and Jicama

Any appointments this week? 32 week US today and now I'm on the every 2 week schedule. I got sick during the US and almostp assed out, ugh My belly is measuring 32 weeks despite all the comments from people about how big it is. Baby is big (see above), but she said thats 77th percentile and it's fine. As long as I dont give birth to anything bigger than 8sih lbs I'm okay.

Symptoms? Acid reflux and insomnia

Cravings? I HAD to have a banana split earlier this week

Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green, I think we're still leaning towards pink

Rants/Raves/Questions? 

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy? I got 2 Moses' baskets (one is going back), but I'm excited about having that for downstairs. I also got a lot of cute little swaddles and what not. Most excited to buy our stroller, fingers crossed we can.

How far along are you? 29 weeks!

How big is baby? Pineapple

Any appointments this week? None

Symptoms? So much heartburn! I'm thinking this boy is going to be a hairy beast. With my son, I had next to no heartburn and he was born with next to no hair.

Cravings? Dr. Pepper, which is odd because I don't normally drink soda. I've caved twice in the past week, and it was totally worth it. 

Team Pink/Blue/Green? Blue!

Rants/Raves/Questions? Nope

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy? Hmm...honestly, we haven't purchase too many baby things, since we have a 15 month old boy, so we're pretty set. Does a house count? We closed on our house this week! Moving day in about 2 weeks! So excited to get in and get nesting

How big is baby? Zucchini 

Any appointments this week?  Yesterday. All is well. 

Symptoms? Heartburn. Possible gall bladder issues.  I'm getting a consistent, dull pain in my upper right abdomen. Doc said to monitor and if it is consistently immediately after eating, it may be gall bladder. Any one else experience anything similar?

Cravings? Nothing noteworthy   

Team Pink/Blue/Green? Green

Rants/Raves/Questions? Nah

GTKY: What is your favorite baby item you've bought/gotten so far? What are you most excited to still buy?  We haven't bought anything.  We still have to clean out room that we plan use as nursery.  We don't have names. #secondchildproblemd

Congrats @kayemjay2! That totally counts!

@clebl24, I had pain like that with my first. I got an ultrasound on my gallbladder and it showed sludge and small gallstones. I ended up having my gallbladder removed about 6 weeks after she was born. 

clebl24

@kmd1106 I'm trying to not be a hypochondriac while still paying attention to my body too. Can you describe your symptoms?

KMD1106

@clebl24, I was asking DH about it trying to remember. It was over 3 years ago, but I do remember not having the excruciating pain that is sometines described. I also couldn't always pinpoint it to hurting right after eating. I remember feeling like I was validated after learning about the sludge during the ultrasound.
