Rant/Rave/Questions?
So excited for baby time to get here. It's going to FLY by cause we have so many weddings etc between now and then. Very very busy summer as usual.
GTKY: what's your dream job?
My dream job is some type of investigator. I worked in asset protection for 3 years and seriously regret getting out of it. Dishonest people and people who cheat the system drive me NUTS. I have my wicklander certification so i used to do interviews all the time and it was always SO interesting. If I went back to school I would want to do something in law enforcement or the court system.
@SouthernMama15 I am every two weeks now as well. It feels like I am at the doctor all the time.
How many other children do you have? DS who is 3.5
How far along are you? 29 weeks
What symptoms are you having? How does it compare to your previous pregnancies? I cut back on my Unisome and feeling a lot less tired and my morning sickness is still under control. I may try and cut back even more this week.
Cravings: Fruit
Any appointments this week? Tuesday
Rant/Rave/Questions? When I go to the bathroom I feel like I am stretched out a little down there. I know with STM you can have some dilation from the start. I am wondering if that is the case. I will be curious to see when the doctor starts doing checks.
GTKY: what's your dream job? Travel blogger.
How many other children do you have? 1 (DD will be 3 in June)
How far along are you? 30+2
What symptoms are you having? How does it compare to your previous pregnancies? Fatigue around noon or about 3:00 in the afternoon. I don't remember being this tired last time.
Cravings: When it's hot outside, all I want is salads, fruit, and a cold drink. I'm not very hungry at all on those days
Any appointments this week? I'll have one on Tuesday
Rant/Rave/Questions? We are taking our annual family trip to Omaha for their Zoo, Safari, and Children's Museum this coming week. I hope I survive!
GTKY: what's your dream job? I've always wanted to be an architect. That's what I would have gone to college for but my teacher in high school said the demand residential architects would be declining (that was in 2000). Boy was he right. But I still love sketching house plans.

What symptoms are you having? How does it compare to your previous pregnancies?
Still have some insomnia, occasional but manageable heartburn, a few Braxton Hicks most days and some lower back/sciatica pain. Since these things aren't constant, overall I'm feeling pretty good and really can't complain.
Cravings:
Fruit and chocolate.
Any appointments this week?
I'm meeting the doctor who's supposed to perform my c-section for the first time on Friday at a . I go to a large practice and although I've met most of the doctors over the years, one of the ones I haven't met is in the OR on the day I scheduled my c-section.
Rant/Rave/Questions?
I feel like my stomach has grown so much more over the past few weeks. I went from feeling not that big to feeling huge. The bump growth, weight gain and general feeling that I get after eating certain food or going a little longer between eating makes me suspect that I'll have sugar issues again this time. I finally go for my 1 hour GTT this week.
GTKY: what's your dream job?
I don't know if I have a dream job, but the only other profession I ever imagined going into was teaching.
How far along? 29 weeks, going faster now. Once I hit 30 hoping it flies by
Symptoms / compared to previous pregnancies: My round ligament pain started earlier this time around when I run, which sucked. I've learned to work around it but it's limited my runs to 3-4 miles. I'm fine with it, who cares at this point! I feel like the pressure down from the weight is worse this time, but happy my muscle aren't killing me when they stretch like previously.
Appts this week?
29 week growth U/S tomorrow. If it shows baby is still on track, which it has been with all previous, then no more U/S :-/. 32 week routine is June 22.
Rants/Raves? None at the moment, I'm happy baby is healthy and I'm feeling good.
GTKY: Dream job? Something I could work from home half the week and go in 3 days. Maybe something design related with creative people? Or be a financial advisor if I was rich and had strong contacts which I don't.. but I'd like to be able to help people invest, actually help and improve their lives. I work in finance now, I feel like everyone is type A, boring, and heartless.. at least on the institutional side, private wealth is nicer/ more personal.
