    @clovelyone sorry your husband has a new, grueling work schedule!  Is going to b so tough with twins, but you'll figure it out. Hugs lady :)
    @MJDsquared omg I have noticed a severe attitude in myself lately and I've been struggling to keep it in check.  I have ZERO patience with idiots and slow people these days lol. Also, at least you want to eat healthy things sometimes. When I'm not pregnant, I eat soooooo well most of the time, and now, it's a STRUGGLE to eat a freaking salad. I feel so bad!  I've been trying to drink more green juice to help get those vitamins for the babies. 
    @peachy13 OMFG I am so sick of people's unsolicited opinions. Everyone coming at you at once with how hard it's going to be, or how you'll never sleep, or have you done this or this...OMFG if it were that bad, no one would have kids ok?!  Chill.  We all know is going to be hard!  Sorry your SIL is being a brat about your registry. I don't know why she would care what you want. Also, it gives your guests a good range of prices to get you gifts - win/win in my opinion!

    28 weeks

    Any new symptoms or changes since last check in? 
    Slightly worsening back pain and I'm much quicker to hit the exhaustion point (falling asleep on the couch before 8pm again, just like in the 1st tri).

    Any appointments since last check in? How did it go? 
    Last week's check-up (all good news) and 1-hour glucose test (I passed, thank god), plus rhogam and tdap shots. BTW, I'm peeved at all the STM's who warned me about the horrific glucose drink (I gagged through the whole thing) but said not one word about the rhogam shot having to be given ON MY ASS. Uncool surprise.

    Rants/raves/Questions? 
    DH still hasn't really felt the baby move, which is a bummer. OB said my placenta is front and center and muffling most movements, plus DH is kind of impatient and doesn't want to "hurt" the baby (I keep telling him if he presses down on the top of my belly he'll definitely feel protest punches.) I'm just worried since this will likely be our only child, I don't want him to miss out!

    GTKY:  What is your favorite Fall activity? 
    Apple picking and apple cider donuts,     picking out pumpkins and decorating the house, Halloween movie marathons, and dressing up to give out candy (we never go to parties, but I always insist on costumes!)

    @MJDsquared Flu shot coming soon to this body, as well. Hope your first experience was okay and your arm isn't too sore. Also, fx that your insurance situation works itself out easily, you certainly won't need that added stress with a new baby.
    @peachy13 Glad you passed your 3-hour! And I totally feel you on all the unsolicited advice, it really does feel condescending at times. I want to make a shirt to wear every single day that says "YES, I KNOW I'M NOT GOING TO SLEEP ONCE HE'S BORN."
    @breezybee So jealous of your "blank canvas"! I'm ready to start knocking down walls in my own place, I'm so irritated with our lack of space. It was great as a starter house, but trying to squish a nursery in is proving to be a nightmare.

    @djd0404 The Rhogam shot is in your ass?! Well, I'm getting that at my next appointment, so I'm glad to know that! Does it hurt to sit afterwards...? Hahaha.

    @MJDsquared That's what they told me, and that's where I got it. I have to admit, it didn't hurt at all. The tdap in my arm was way worse. Only my ego was bruised. ;)

    How far along are you?  25 + 5

    Any new symptoms or changes since last check in? Nope, just starting to feel big. People are starting to comment on my bump and can tell I'm pregnant (in a good way!), so that's pretty new and exciting. 

    Any appointments since last check in? How did it go? Nope

    Rants/raves/Questions? Rave- 100 days until my due date! I can't believe I'm nearing the end of the second trimester- this is getting real! Another rave- just found out we may be moving to New England (CT) in early 2019 (DH already got a job offer). I'm so ready to get out of Texas and to settle down somewhere (with seasons!) and plant roots. MIL is finally starting to come to terms with the fact that we'll be moving to either the NE or Colorado and that we have no desire to stay in Texas long-term. 

    GTKY:  What is your favorite Fall activity? Ugh, I live in Texas, so fall weather feels forever away. I don't even think there are any places to go apple picking or pumpkin patches near me. I did put out my Fall decorations last weekend (earlier than usual), so that's exciting. Fall and winter are my favorite seasons, so I can't wait! As far as favorite fall activity, does eating all the food at Thanksgiving count?!
    @peachy13 I'm so jealous of your NE fall weather- you're living my dream! 
    @djd0404 Thanks for the heads-up about the Rhogam shot. I have to get mine in a few weeks, and I had no idea!

    25+2!  I can't believe it!

    Any new symptoms or changes since last check in? 
    With @ktcakes87 on the obnoxious pelvic/hip pain which suddenly appeared. I won't realize I sat weird and then I stand up and have a moment of panic thinking the baby is about to fall out. If I bend forward a certain way sometimes, I also feel my tailbone(?) pop. I also realized my reflux was because of the sparkling water I've been drinking... RIP LaCroix addiction.

    Any appointments since last check in? How did it go? 
    Just a quick check, but I LOVED the doc I saw that day! Kind of hope she's the one on call when I deliver.  I also attended a breastfeeding class my OB office held, and learned a lot.  I'm honestly indifferent about BFing (not that it isn't important, but just that I don't have strong convictions about it and don't feel like the kind of person who would be all torn up if I couldn't for some reason) but it did make me feel more prepared.

    Rants/raves/Questions? 
    Scared about GD-- it seems like a ton of our BMB regulars are dealing with it!  Power on, ladies!  My test isn't for a few more weeks but I'm dreeeeeading it. Also my mom got her Tdap booster two weeks ago and has not stopped whining about how bad her arm still hurts, so I'm worried about that now too.

    GTKY:  What is your favorite Fall activity? 
    ALL THE THINGS.  Pumpkins. Football games. The smell of chimney smoke. I'M READYYYY

    Just feeling larger and in charge-er... 
    Any appointments since last check in? How did it go? 
    2 weeks away from next appointment. I gained more weight last month than was recommended, but I have been trying to be a little bit better with eating extra sweets... Needless to say I've been avoiding putting new batteries in my scale... I dont want to be shocked at the Dr's but am kind of in denial. 
    Rants/raves/Questions? 
    I'm working on my registry and I think I'm going to end up spending all day organizing the three different sites. I wanted to have options for those who shop in stores, but it feels like I'm adding more work for myself just for a select few people... ugh. 
    GTKY:  What is your favorite Fall activity? 
    Spending more time outside, it's patio season! I'm in Texas so summers are brutal, by this fall time we can be outside comfortably. I'm sad about not being able to fully enjoy a good Sunday football day with some beer... 

    @elcd458 I am in the same boat with you on breastfeeding. I need to check out a class.. I've been registering for some bottle stuff and some breastfeeding stuff, but it's so hard to know what we'll need. Also, very worried about GD, but will just have to wait for the results... First 1hr test is in 2 weeks... yikes.
