1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 28 weeks. 3rd tri! Roller skate, echidna, or eggplant.
2. How are you feeling? The usual...today I'm having a rougher day. I'm very uncomfortable in my pelvic region. Yesterday by the evening I was purely exhausted.
3. Any appointments this week? Had my check up last Wednesday, everything was good. Doing my 3hr tomorrow ( )
4. Rants/raves/questions? We have a busy weekend between my 3hr test, DH's motorcycle club's "national" party, and seeing some sorority sisters. Hoping to also get some stuff done around home, so I'm hoping I feel better.
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go? I'm a huge reader, so this is a hard choice. However, it'd probably be Tortall, which is the medieval type land from my favorite author Tamora Pierce. Of course, Hogwarts/Hogsmede would also be great!
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 29w, a gallon of milk, loaf of bread, butternut squash
2. How are you feeling? Over all pretty good, but I have bad moments. My back hurts way less than it did with DD and I think it's bc I'm doing yoga this time. Putting pants on has become a real struggle.
3. Any appointments this week? Thursday
4. Rants/raves/questions? I passed my glucose test!!! Also, last appointment I got my tdap..... that made it seem so real. Time is flying. Also, DH is going to be gone for the most part all weekend and I'm hoping that I can get in some serious nesting.
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go? Narnia
appt on thursday. tdap time but that's about it for excitement (hopefully).
4. Rants/raves/questions?
switched OBs this time because mine moved to CA (i could cry just thinking about it. he was the best...but 30 hours is a little too long of a commute for this) and my appt last week was the first time i had much of a conversation with the new one other than regular appt stuff. he is a good dr and i am fine with all of that, so i know that is the most important, but he must have been having a day because he started talking/calmly ranting about all kinds of things, most of which were socially/politically charged. he apparently decided that i was on the same page in spite of my almost complete lack of response, but he just kept going. i mean, he is clearly somewhat liberal but with a definite elitist bend that made him seem very out of touch (in my humble opinion). i could have said so much, but i really did not want to engage on it...i maybe should have been offended but really more than anything it just surprised me. i mean, i guess it is nice that he felt comfortable?? but honestly it was so out of place...i spent the last five or so minutes of it standing up with my bag over my shoulder waiting to leave but he was clueless. i guess we are friends now. and i want my old dr back more than ever!
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go?
how about the hundred acre wood...that sounds nice
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 27wks, I think i read lettuce.Third Tri? maybe that's next week, I'll call it next week
2. How are you feeling? I think I finally figured out that I'm eating too much causing what little space I have in my body to be taken up by stomach room, and maybe that's why I feel so crappy all the time. I'm going to try and slow down on my eating or do a little at a time.
3. Any appointments this week? Next tuesday and I'm sure they will schedule me for my glucose test, oh joy of joys
4. Rants/raves/questions? Rave! I've been trying to be more active, going on walks etc. I've only gone on like two but they were both this week so I feel pretty good about that. I also have DD swim lessons tonight so that's a little more exercise.
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go? Hogwarts.
BFP 2/11/15 (EDD 10/13/15). MMC 3/30/15 D&C 4/3/15 "We will always love you"
DD1 - BFP 7/23/15 (EDD 3/31/16). "We believe in you rainbow" DOB 4/2/16
DD2 - BFP 2/9/18 (EDD 10/19/18). "Grow baby grow!" DOB 10/24/18
BFP 11/16/20 (EDD 7/31/21). "Round 3 FIGHT!"
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 28 Weeks, Eggplant. WHOOOP 3rd TRI!!!
2. How are you feeling? Feeling OK I guess. Tired and back is always sore.
3. Any appointments this week? Yep! Had one yesterday. Doc said baby's head is VERY low already and she thinks i'll def go early again (ahhh!) and I'm low on iron so need to take an extra supplement. Other than that everything looks good
4. Rants/raves/questions? Because baby is sitting so low, sex has become super uncomfortable. It sucks. I don't want to go another 2 months with little sex, knowing that the first 3 months after baby it's practically non existent!
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go? Pffft! Hogwarts. Hands down.
28 weeks, eggplant, rollarblad, cauliflower. So excited to be in the 3rd trimester!
2. How are you feeling?
getting uncomfortable. Sleeping is hard, yesterday I went to bed at 8:30pm and felt like it was the 1st trimester again! I did manage to sleep for 10 hours (off and on with pee breaks of course) Sitting is hard as my hip/ sciatica falls asleep. Going for a massage today so hopefully that will help.
3. Any appointments this week?
next week for OB.

Me 33 DH 41 TTC since 2016 Due: October 12, 2018 Location: Ontario, Canada
@norahkate that seems really awkward when you're not super close to your dr. I can see the office manager and I at my office talking like that, but we know each other personally (her grandson is SS's best friend).
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 27 weeks, cucumber
2. How are you feeling? Huge! but pretty good otherwise!
3. Any appointments this week? Next week on Thursday, but going for my 3 hr glucose test next Tuesday (I didn't pass the 1 hr test that I did on Tuesday) and have to get my rhogam shot...
4. Rants/raves/questions? I've been pretty MIA for the past month(ish) because I very suddenly lost my job at the end of June and everything has been completely crazy since then. But things are settling down now so I'm going to try to be more active!
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go? Hogwarts for sure, but I also loved the answer @norahkate gave too!
@sammierose464 Fingers crossed for good results for your 3 hr glucose test! I'm so nervous as well, I passed the 1 hr test with DS so I'm in completely new territory!
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 29 weeks. acorn squash
2. How are you feeling? Tired, but that’s more from work and my toddler. Also feeling huge, many coworkers are surprised I’m still at work.... um. I still have over 2 months...
3. Any appointments this week? Have one next week
4. Rants/raves/questions? why do people have to comment how big I am? This happened last pregnancy too. Yes, I gain A LOT and no I’m not eating more or different foods as opposed to when I’m not pregnant. That’s how my body operates. And yes, it goes away without doing anything different, again, my body works this way.
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go? I would have to agree that hogwarts would be super cool!
@acdc1109 so sorry to hear about your job! Hopefully things start getting a little better. Good luck on your 3hr. Mine wasn't nearly as bad as I expected, so I'm hoping I passed!
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 26 weeks size of a coconut
2. How are you feeling? Everything is painful and I am getting tired. I am about the size I was near the end with DD. This pregnancy is so different.
3. Any appointments this week? I have an ultrasound tomorrow so we shall see
4. Rants/raves/questions? I technically passed my 3 hour test according to my Drs guidelines but those guidelines are WAY higher than any I have ever seen and according to others I barley failed it. I am debating on requesting a dietitian since its something I struggle with.
5. GTKY: To what fictional place would you most like to go? Kanto region (Pokemon)
@sammierose464 yeah...pretty awkward. i am just going to go with it because i trust him as a doctor and the rest is such a small amount of time with him anyway. but seriously dude, maybe we just go back to strictly business.
