1. How many weeks? How big is baby? 28 weeks (yay!!!!!) - Aubergine
2. How are you feeling? Ok. I'm definitely slowing down. I know I need more sleep but I get an odd surge of energy in the late evening and then I have to leave for work at 7am so there's not much I can do. Luckily the sleep I do get has been really good.
3. Rants/Raves/Questions? Rave: Earth Mama Heartburn tea. I have (mild) acid reflux this tea actually does the trick!
4. Any appts this week? I'm going to do my glucose screening tomorrow morning and I have an OB appointment on Tuesday
5. Favorite "me time" activity? I love painting my nails but haven't done it in ages. I foolishly sported longer nails for the last few weeks because my prenatals have made them grow fast and strong and then on Saturday, while testing out our new car seat, I broke two horribly. It was gruesome.
1. How many weeks? How big is baby? - 27 weeks, lettuce.
2. How are you feeling? - Good! Baby is kicking a lot and I have no icky symptoms at the moment. Even wandered around Ikea for hours and put together a huge dresser the next day without getting achey. Yay!
3. Rants/Raves/Questions? - Long weekend and delicious food coming up! Friday through Sunday will be spent getting the apartment more in order, reorganize all our storage (I already started) and do a deep clean of corners and areas that have been ignored for too long. Weirdly excited about it, maybe the nesting is kicking in?
4. Any appts this week? - Not this week, but I have my glucose test on Wednesday next week.
5. Favorite "me time" activity? - Oh god, too many things. Lately I’ve been a homebody and love plopping down on the couch with Netflix, but I also love going to cafes alone to read and draw. I should do that again soon, have a feeling me-time will go out the window with a baby!

1. How many weeks? How big is baby? 28 weeks! Eggplant
2. How are you feeling? Good! I guess the weird e-stim feeling I've been having is Braxton Hicks? Overall I feel great, ready for Thanksgiving and shopping Friday
3. Rants/Raves/Questions? I gave my doodle a bath last night (he loves the shower) and now he's so fluffy and smells lovely and I just want to snuggle him.
4. Any appts this week? Nope, they cancelled my appointment Friday and can't find a time to make it up before my next one on the 3rd.
5. Favorite "me time" activity? Reading. Which I haven't done a whole lot of lately
1. How many weeks? How big is baby? 29 weeks, acorn squash.
2. How are you feeling? After last night's graveyard shift I have spent the day holed up with crippling stomach pains, nausea and diarrhea. Now getting heart palpitations from the dehydration so I'm trying to eat chicken soup. I feel awful.
3. Rants/Raves/Questions? See above.
4. Any appts this week? Not for 3 more weeks.
5. Favorite "me time" activity? Alone time in cafes, hot baths with candles and YouTube and snacks.
1. . How many weeks? How big is baby? 27, lettuce.
2. How are you feeling? My sciatic pain is a b---h! I also feel like my hip is straight-up dislocated when I sit on the floor criss-cross-applesauce to do DD's bedtime routine. Poor DH is probably going to have to take on getting both of the kiddos ready for bed now on his own.
3. Rants/Raves/Questions? None
4. Any appts this week? Just had a regular appt a couple days ago and took my GDM test. I passed! Yay!
5. Favorite "me time" activity? The spa. DH gifted me a mommy spa package and watched the kids while I spent 4 long hours getting a prenatal massage, facial and pedi. It was a amaze.
I need to apologize, I never posted on last Wednesday’s ticker, I flew that day to my friend’s wedding and didn’t get to a hotel until midnight. 1. How many weeks? How big is baby? Tomorrow is 28 weeks. 2. How are you feeling? back pain,hunger 3. Rants/Raves/Questions? Excited about working on the nursery this weekend 4. Any appts this week? Regular Ob gyn yesterday, high risk doc was today. Baby is doing fine, was able to do a blood test instead of glucose drink. High risk doc said I’m no longer in high risk. High risk doc said baby’s head size would make labor easy. 5. Favorite "me time" activity? Currently, tv or napping. Previously, lots of other things.
1. How many weeks? How big is baby? 29!! My baby is 3 lbs according to the US I had Monday!
2. How are you feeling? Pretty good! Heartburn ramping up some days
3. Rants/Raves/Questions? Nope! I’m pretty good. One small thing, we are waiting to buy things black fri for the baby, but I’m not that wowed with any sales. Not talking clothes, but bigger purchases
4. Any appts this week? Had one Monday!
5. Favorite "me time" activity? Anything where I can charge my introvert batteries! Lol! Even sitting alone on a quiet couch alone reading, watching tv, etc is perfect
