How far along are you? 38 weeks - 2 weeks left! But DS was born at 38+2 so I'm trying to remain hopeful
Howbig is baby? Winter melon, leek, bucket of KFC, Oscar statuette, chopped log of firewood
Team Blue, Pink, Green? And name(s)? Team Blue - Samuel Cruz
Appointments this week? Next appt is on Wednesday, 4/19 at 38+4
Symptoms? Tons of pressure on my pelvic bone and some contractions/BH.
What have you done to prepare for baby this week? I bought a pair of black pajama pants (to add to my collection), underwear, and tanks for PP. I also can't walk into Walmart or Target without going to the baby aisle and buying something. Help! Samuel got 2 new elephant outfits this week. All that's left to do is install car seats. Hopefully having DH do that tonight.
Rants/Raves/Questions: I'm officially on maternity leave!!! Woohoo!!! When is this baby coming?!
GTKY: What are your plans for Easter? Nothing super concrete as of yet. We may go to church with DH's family and then hang out/BBQ at my SILs. But I'd honestly rather just hang out at home and not do much of anything.
Steady contractions 7 minutes apart this morning. Now they have slowed down more like 15 and not consistent anymore. Really thought this was it, but maybe later.
What have you done to prepare for baby this week?
Currently hanging her curtains.
Rants/Raves/Questions:
GTKY: What are your plans for Easter?
Home if not in the hospital. The thought of not being home for Easter with my three year old breaks my heart. Maybe the Easter bunny will just come to the hospital.
How far along are you? Murphy will be 2 weeks on Monday
How big is baby? I have no idea, hoping she's back up to her birth weight. If she is, I will be able to let her sleep a little longer at night ... we are both excited for that! We will see on Monday.
Team Blue, Pink, Green? And name(s)?
Pink. Murphy May
Appointments this week? 2 week check up on Monday
Symptoms? Me - still bleeding. And boobs are HUGE and leaky. Murphy - diaper rash. She seems to have pretty sensitive skin. Had to change diapers and diaper rash cream already.
What have you done to prepare for baby this week? My mom, baby and I ventured to target twice this week to get a few essentials. It was interesting and successful.
Rants/Raves/Questions: DH and I went downtown today for ice cream. He suggested it since I'm starting to get cabin fever and we are both hyper aware of my risk of PPD. I'm doing well so far, but it's really hard recovering and not being allowed to do anything. It was so nice to get out around other people. I also used my Solly wrap for the first time today and used it while we went downtown. Safe to say that baby girl LOVES the wrap!
GTKY: What are your plans for Easter? We are having some family over. It's gradually gotten bigger and bigger - at 11 now, but everyone coming is pretty low key so all should be fine.
Team Blue, Pink, Green? And name(s)? Green, Harper or Daniel
Appointments this week? Tuesday. Will be 40 + 3.
Symptoms? Tons of pelvic pressure Ann's Braxton hicks. Baby loves moving all evening and night. Should go well when it's born...
What have you done to prepare for baby this week? Carried it to 40 weeks!
Rants/Raves/Questions: Just so ready to meet thus baby!
GTKY: What are your plans for Easter? If I'm in labor, spending it at the hospital. If not, we'll go to my mom's house. We will do breakfast and baskets at home with the kids. We typically do church, but I'm skipping out this year because I'm just so pregnant and am over venturing out. We will go to my parents' house for an Easter egg hunt and dinner.
How far along are you? 1 week old!, (on Saturday. She's 8 days today)
How big is baby? she was 7 lbs 13 Oz at the Dr this past Tuesday
Team Blue, Pink, Green? And name(s)? my sweet Maggie.
Appointments this week? nope.
Symptoms? lack of sleep. Occasionally smells like spit up or bad bo because hello crazy hormones! I also have random crying sessions.
What have you done to prepare for baby this week? I'm currently working on trying to pump every 2 hours to get her some mommies milk since breastfeeding just isn't working and I'm not going to stress about it.
Rants/Raves/Questions: rants...I feel like the reject cow at the dairy farm. No matter how much I pump I only ever get at the most 2 Oz. Most of the time though it's under 1 Oz. Aaand the batteries in my pump just died and I'm at my parents and left the cord at home.
GTKY: What are your plans for Easter? hanging out at my patents today with the kids waiting on daddy to get off work. Happy Easter everyone!
