How far along are you? 28+1 but we never have a Friday check in! So I'm crashing!

How big is baby? A 14.8 inch eggplant, which seems like an abnormal eggplant to me

Upcoming appointments this week? Nope, I have a very appointmenty week this past week with chiro, OB, and elective 4d u/s. This coming week I will have to reschedule the chiro bc of work stuff.

Any new symptoms or changes? Baby is breech and sitting up high and its super uncomfortable.

Rants/Raves/Questions? My dad is being annoying about fixing the hole in the wall in the baby's room, even though it would probably take him an hour. He's such a hermit lately, only interested in his ancestry.com research and the rest of us real family can go to hell. If I didn't need his ancestry subscription for work, I'm tempted to change his log in! 
And we need to get that room together asap! I'm already practically incapacitated!

Hi @GlitterFish


You can crash our ticker change!

greenbean-2

How far along are you? 24 weeks! High five @SquirttheTurtle

How big is baby? A cantaloupe, a puffin

Upcoming appointments this week? No

Any new symptoms or changes? A return of nausea and vomiting.  This really sucks.  

Rants/Raves/Questions? A general rant: I had no frickin clue how hard pregnancy is.  None.  For example, I had no idea that nausea and vomiting could come back during second trimester, but from seeing other comments on this board, it seems relatively common.  I don't know how I'm going to keep working for the next 3.5-4 months if this keeps up.  [Insert rant about all of the ways that society could make thing easier for pregnant women and new moms in the US, but chooses not to] 
To avoid getting sucked into a spiral of negativity on a Saturday morning: a rave that I've reached viability day!  Woo hoo!

GTKY: What's your favorite zoo animal?  Tigers!

28+1.  Emboldened by @GlitterFish, I too am joining the Saturday check-in.  
How big is baby? 
A coconut!
Upcoming appointments this week?
Next week is the GD test.  I feel like a dead woman walking.
Any new symptoms or changes?
Migraines are back with a vengeance.  Had a nice break there during second tri.  I am also suddenly obsessed with birth stories, which I wasn't before.  Maybe that's a symptom?
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Third trimester!  Holy cats!

HI @theweevee

I'm so behind on bumping - so busy lately!

nope
Any new symptoms or changes?
baby is kicking harder and I'm having to pee more - other than that, things are going pretty well. 
Rants/Raves/Questions?
can't wait to be done with our remodel - it's turning out amazing, and my DH is such a trooper doing everything, but I know it's hurting the closeness of our relationship since we have a deadline and can't spend much time thinking about anything else. Gonna have a "date" night soon - which is more of a screw it we're taking a break night
Also, starting to feel nervous about how little time is left before baby comes - not feeling ready at all!

I've always loved the cats - and other large mammals, just fascinating to observe.
