How are you feeling? Great. I am a little bit more out of breath doing routine chores like putting pants on but otherwise, I feel great. No pain or big discomfort yet. I would wake up at 4:00AM the last couple days but it has stopped.
Raves/Rants: this baby girl is moving a lot and it makes us really eager to meet her. We still have a few projects we want to finish before she gets here. I need to paint the family room now that the floors are done. We still need to do the floors in the guest room but this should be easy. We'll do it over the Christmas break. My cat also seems to be getting better. No more peeing outside the litter box. Every morning I go on a hunt around the house to see if he found a new spot. I haven't found anything. We still have puppy pads in his "spots" just in case. Fingers crossed!
Questions:
GTKY: What is your favorite part of the holiday season? Least favorite? Favorite is all the festive stuff happening around it like decorated stores, Christmas movies, extra time off at work, people being more joyful.... Least favorite is Christmas shopping when you have no idea what to get the person. I need lists.

Baby is the size of a(n): Acorn squash? But has anybody seen a 15" 3lb acorn squash? Where do they come up with these comparisons??
Upcoming appointments: Friday for a checkup/part of the doctor rotatioms
How are you feeling? Pretty good for the most part. Baby's making sure momma gets all the fun experiences (latest is nighttime heartburn!)
Raves/Rants: This ones a twofer! I love feeling her move around...but no joke, little lady was all big movements for almost 3 hours straight last night while I was trying to fall asleep! Feeling some down low tickles this morning. General rant: got another bill from the hospital from the 3rd Anatomy scan which is so ridiculous. It was over a month ago and i paid my $450 out of pocket, but now they want another $60! I mean yay for insurance because I guess the scan at the hospital could have cost me over $2k otherwise now...
Questions:
GTKY: What is your favorite part of the holiday season? Least favorite? I love giving gifts and seeing all the christmas lights! I dislike how it starts earlier each year. I tend to become a grinch by the time christmas actually arrives. And i hate when people ask me what I want for Christmas...I never have anything I want because it's usually hella expensive or it's something that I can just buy myself. Lol
@babyroma I have the same problem! What I want is too expensive and if it's not too expensive, I buy it myself. Honestly, I don't need anything. I told my husband I wanted new sleepers because the one I had got destroyed when we did the floors. I told him to buy for the baby instead. There is actually a list online for what I need
@bg122785 I think this is finally the light at the end of the tunnel. He started to pee outside his litter box at Christmas last year (under the tree). His ultrasound 2 weeks ago showed no tumor in his bladder or pancreas so the vet is confident his diabetes could actually resolve itself in the next couple months. He is going to be 18 in a few months. He is a grandpa but so far so good.

Baby is the size of a(n): zucchini (a huge zucchini?)
Upcoming appointments: one today and now an extra Thursday
How are you feeling? Just sore. I finally caught up on sleep last night and I feel like a new human
Raves/Rants: last appointment in the midst of the 1 hr/3hr glucose nonsense they measured me as being way ahead for dates. I pointed out that I’ve never really been ahead. Now this week they got the same measurement twice and I have to go for a growth scan. I really think the last one was just wrong. (Ps. This weeks measurement would be spot on with projected growth from all the others. One week ahead). Excited to see a sono of peanut but I already spend too much time at the office on my days off
Questions: who wants to holiday shop for me? I’m over it.
GTKY: What is your favorite part of the holiday season? Lights everywhere.
Least favorite? All the other people off. There’s too many! Bah humbug
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Green! Starting to get anxious to find out if baby will be a baby brother or sister!
Baby is the size of a(n): as tall as a magazine!
Upcoming appointments: not until 1/9
How are you feeling? Tired! But better now with iron medication. Stretched to the max even though I still have 8-12 weeks to go! But excited for Christmas break in 3 days!
Raves/Rants: Rave to visiting family in a week!
GTKY: What is your favorite part of the holiday season? Least favourite? Favourite part is visiting family! I miss being close to them all the time! And seeing my kids light up when they wake up Christmas morning! Least favourite: it’s so busy and goes by way too fast!
How are you feeling? Okay, food still doesn’t make me feel great.
Raves/Rants: Feeling torn between wanting to savor the time with my first born and wanting her sister to be here!
Questions:
GTKY: What is your favorite part of the holiday season? Least favorite? Favorite: having my whole family here Least: trying to figure out where to put all the gifts once we unwrap all of it!
