    @wyomama0427 Aww thanks! Yesterday I saw one of my friends that I haven't seen in about two weeks and she commented that I'm starting to look really cute, and I thought that was an adorable way to note someone's belly without using "big" or "huge."
    And I do sleep with a pillow between my knees, so maybe it's time to try out the chiropractor.

    @mrsmarygs yup! Chiro time! Do you have one you like already or will you have to find one?
  • Options
    @wyomama0427 I have one that does everyone around here. He gives the college's employees a discount so we only pay a normal copay instead of the 50% that our insurance doesn't cover. :)  And I know he does pregnant ladies, so it's just a matter of making an appointment.

    The lower back and hip pain is sooo real but i finally got some of my energy back. As far as cravings, anything spicy!! I always enjoy it in the moment and regret it as soon as the heartburn hits.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    I'm just so excited to find out baby's sex! The wait has been killing me.

    I think 21 was one of my favorites, not for all of the typical reasons but I went to this really fun outdoor music festival with all of my favorite people and it was such a good time. Good music, no drama and no worrying about whether my fake ID would get accepted  ;)

    Rave: Finally booked a place for a shower and picked out nursery theme for boy or girl, finally it seems like things are moving along.

    GTKY: Tell us about your favorite birthday (as a kid or as an adult).

    For my 25th Birthday we had all of our friends and some family over to the house and just had a nice laid back party and that was a really fun time.  No drama, no leaving the house, minimal planning just great people and junk food.

    ETA: change Rant to Rave and add additional appointment.  I guess Baby Brain has no gotten any better....

    We find out on Wednesday.

    Ultrasound on Wednesday, regular monthly appointment on Thursday 

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? 
    No -- the hip pain and back pain continue to be difficult, particularly at night. At this point I've tried yoga, prenatal massage, pillow between the legs, getting up from my desk more frequently from work. Nothing is really helping. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
     So we live 6+ hours away from our closer and more reliable family members. Since we relocated two years ago, we don't have too many close friends where we live now, and the friends we are close with have young children themselves. I'm really concerned about what we are going to do with DS (2.5 yrs) when I go into labor. His daycare is open from 7 AM - 6PM, but if I go into labor in the middle of the night we may be in a tricky spot. My nightmare situation is that I will have to go it alone if we are unable to find someone to watch DS.

    My 20th or so birthday my husband, then boyfriend, surprised me with a black pearl pendant and a handwritten ocean themed poem. The real surprise was a day trip he planned to the coast -- at the time a 10 hour round trip drive. This spontaneity was unusual for us, and I love spending time near the ocean.

    @Carebella omg the car seat battle is ridiculous! DS is normally pretty good but when he decides he's not sitting down, it's the most frustrating thing!

    @MyNamesTaken He was good for about 4 months and then it became hell. He's gotten better but the not knowing makes every trip stressful so I always try to limit outings to one stop. Made the mistake of two stops today and it's almost going on an hour now. I could force him... but I have no desire to have a physical battle and/or hear crying and screaming the whole way home.

    Nothing really new, but last week was the week I became sure that the spasms I've been feeling were really the LO kicking me in the bladder. Fun times!

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    Where, oh where has my waist gone! I'm a curvy woman, but I'm used to being an hourglass. Now I'm am apple.. people (women, who I know) have been coming up to me and asking if I am pregnant. It's get to be offensive, but it's apparently getting obvious.

    My now-husband and I took our first cruise over my birthday a few years ago. At the captain's reception, he was told (not by us) that it was my birthday and he sang me Happy Birthday in front of everyone. It was actually quite endearing and special.

    Except for last night, my insomnia has been much better this week, so I'm happy about that. No other symptoms of note.

    I'm really happy that my cervical length has now remained stable for 3 weeks, so my anxiety about preterm labor can ease up a little bit.

    Not sure if I have a favorite, but my last birthday (36) was pretty great. It was my first birthday at a new job, so the day before my birthday (I was going to be out of the office on the actual day), my coworkers surprised me with a cake and a little party. It was really sweet. Then my husband and I went to Chicago for the weekend and it was really nice to spend the whole day together on my birthday, see the sites, and eat some amazing food.
