Not really. Weekly appt is Friday.

Random contractions have me all kinds of achy and food holds no appeal right now. But if I don't eat then I get sick.

This will be our first year doing Thanksgiving with just us but the rolls are always one of my favorites. We get Hawaiian rolls and bake them with a honey butter glaze. That and the brown sugar ham my mom makes that I'm going to try and recreate for the first time.
@MDKC14 brown brown sugar ham sounds delicious!

I have an appointment and ultrasound on Monday. I found out that I’m being classified as having mild polyhydramnios, so I’m curious what the next ultrasound will show.

I love makimg and eating sweet potato soufflé. All of the Thanksgiving Good is delicious in my book, except turkey.

2) Any appointment updates? I need to have a growth scan now based on consistently measuring 2 weeks ahead plus my weight gain. Excuse to see baby, I guess!
3) RantsRaves/Questions/DearDiary? Hubby is being super understanding and supportive of my inability to do much of anything. Frustrating for me, but he's really been stepping up lately. Love him!
4) GTKY: What thanksgiving dishes (or family holiday meals if you don’t do turkey day) do you specialize in making or most look forward to eating? I usually do green bean casserole, but also "stuffingless stuffing" with sweet potato chunks instead of bread. My turkey is usually a big hit too. The brine is a winner, and starting it upside down in the oven keeps the breast moist.
I don't really love sweet potatoes unless they are savory. I'm weird.
@scaredunprepared I'm curious about your stuffingless stuffing! Not that I don't like stuffing, but I love sweet potatoes and my mom tries to stick to a GF diet!

2) see appointment thread. TLDR; baby is doing great, but my blood sugars aren't. I could be induced anywhere between 1-3 weeks!
3) DH had to take today off because daycare is closed, so now I'm jealous, and it feels like Friday because Thursday is just a weird random day to be off work
GTKY: I'm not a big fan of thanksgiving food
I may make a small dish anyways, I think FIL would eat some, maybe DHs grandpa? And BIL if he shows up, but I doubt his wife will let them drive up

Since our house fell through now we have to go apartment hunting on Saturday. This is not as much fun as house hunting, I have to say. Really hoping we find something so we can get that stress off our list!

I do all of the eating and none of the cooking. Lately thanksgiving is a small affair with just my mil, bil, dh and me and now dd. I love stuffing so much. I could eat it all day. Also, pie. My mil doesn’t buy any pie that I like generally though so I have a sad dessert now usually.
The stuffingless stuffing is pretty simple: Sautee sweet potato chunks in butter. Once softened, add celery, onion, and leeks. Once they are mostly done, add chopped spinach to wilt. Then season as you like. We add fresh turkey drippings.
