team pink
baby is a pineapple
just ate a pickle but really just want to eat a tub of icing
Friday! 36 week apt.
Team pink/blue/green: pink!
Baby is the size of a(n): ferret
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: none. Getting over a cold and feel like garbage and can barely eat. So I guess hot tea?
Upcoming appts: tomorrow after canceling my last wk’s appt bc I had the plague
Rants/Raves/Questions: just would like this effing cold to go away. I feel awful and it doesn’t even really have anything to do with my pregnancy. It makes me want to hibernate until baby comes so I’m not this sick during delivery. I cannot imagine giving birth feeling like this.

Team pink/blue/green: Baby Boy
Baby is the size of a(n): 5lbs 9oz according to the sono yesterday. I'm thinking/hoping that means he'll be just under 8 lbs at birth.
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: Alternating super hungry with super nauseous, which is delightful. Also heartburn city no matter what I eat or don't eat.
Upcoming appts: Next week. Started those lovely weekly appointments.
Rants/Raves/Questions: Can't believe baby could be here this month! I'm ready. Or as ready as I can possibly be for the insanity that will be 3 children under 5.

Team pink/blue/green: Pink💖
Baby is the size of a(n): 🍍
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: No cravings or aversions, but need protein the moment my blood sugar drops. Symptoms: Tired all the time now, sleep is not great (so much tossing and turning), Braxton Hicks and I just feel slow and big. It's hard keeping up with DS these days.
Upcoming appts: Thursday for a growth scan and OB visit. Then I'll wait until 36 weeks to begin going every week. How is it that time already?!
Rants/Raves/Questions: Rant: Sitting down has become my worst enemy these days unless I'm on my yoga ball or wedge. I think because DD is low she's hitting some nerves that cause my legs to get weak and tingly. The moment I stand up and walk around it goes away. I don't have this issue when sleeping, just sitting in a chair for more than 20 mins.😭 Rave: My sprinkle is this weekend!

Team pink/blue/green: pink!
Baby is the size of a(n): squash
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: Finally done with junk food and been on healthy kick recently. Still want my desserts, but trying to replace with healthier alternatives. Been loving having skinny lemon cookies with my raspberry leaf tea in the evenings.
Upcoming appts: Had one today, another in two weeks, and then I start my weekly appointments the first Tuesday in March!
Rants/Raves/Questions: Not too much to report this week, just chugging along on that to do list, trying to survive at work, and trying to get as much rest as I can. I'm kinda ready for her to be here already!!
Team pink/blue/green:Pink
Baby is the size of a(n): Honeydew Melon
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: Team no sleep here. I am always really hot as well and been feeling really nauseous. Aside from all that I am just excited for the next 5 weeks to be over so I can meet my baby girl!
Upcoming appts: Feb. 12th Growth Scan and Feb. 14th for the 1st of many cervical checks
Rants/Raves/Questions: Just overall excited that we will all be meeting our little one's soon.
Team pink/blue/green: Blue
Baby is the size of a(n): A carton of a dozen eggs
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: I feel like I'm dealing with first trimester fatigue all over again. SO TIRED, but also can't sleep, so it's a vicious cycle. I also get random hot flashes and sweat like a pig.
Upcoming appts: Weekly appointments now, along with weekly BPPs. Last week, baby was head down and quickly passed all his BPP markers. My BP has still been okay, so I'm hoping to push this delivery as late as possible if everything stays normal.
Rants/Raves/Questions: Rant: I just basically feel like a disgusting beast. Also sick of the unnecessary comments from people. My MIL insists that we only need 2 children, so we'll be done after this one. Ummmm, we don't know yet, but it's definitely not her decision!
Rave: My BFF hosted an amazing Super Bowl sprinkle this past Sunday! Everyone has been super generous and we now have quite the stock of diapers/wipes and plenty of stuff that'll be new for this baby, instead of everything being hand-me-downs.

Team pink/blue/green: team pink
Baby is the size of a(n):
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: pelvic pain is getting bad, so I can tell baby has 'dropped'. I have this annoying burning crotch pain when walking..
Upcoming appts: weekly appointments for me, with non stress tests and ultrasound due to GD. my sugars are 'sorta' under control now that I've upped my insulin (again). I seem to get it under control for a few days and then they shoot up again.
Rants/Raves/Questions: rave, I can't believe we're so close to the end. I'm so ready to be done being pregnant, but yet, at the same time a little sad since I know it's my last.
Random side note, MH was telling me that March Madness is supposedly the favored time to schedule a vasectomy so they get time off work to recover and watch the games?! Supposedly that is a thing and it’s super hard to get an appointment at that time. I am curious if this is a myth.
Team pink/blue/green: blue
Baby is the size of a(n): bunch of celery
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: nothing specific for cravings/aversions, but smaller appetite since there just seems to be no room. Symptoms are just feeling large and having a harder time moving around with the hip/pelvic soreness and frequent contractions.
Upcoming appts: 3/17 for a midwife visit
Rants/Raves/Questions: our new glider was delivered today and I’m excited to set up a cozy spot in our room for feeding and snuggling.
@mrsvp614 WTF MIL? You only "need" two babies? Holy f*&^ that would annoy me.

Team pink/blue/green: GREEN!
Baby is the size of a(n): An adorable mini-lop rabbit OR a bunch of carrots... but last night I was thinking a truck?
Cravings/Aversions/Symptoms: Hmm... for some reason food hasn't sounded great lately, but I also didn't cook for the week on Sunday as I normally do (thanks, Super Bowl), so my whole week has been off. Symptoms are just feeling huge and occasional issues breathing.
Upcoming appts: I go on 2/13 for the group B test/check up and that is the start of my weekly appointments.
Rants/Raves/Questions: Any working moms struggling to GAF about work? I'm just tuned out. Like I'm here, and I'm doing things, but I'm taking zero initiative and counting down the days. RAVE: Honestly, when pushed, I have to say this has been my easiest pregnancy of the three... and since it's so close to the end, I can't imagine that much changing. I suspected the third would be the hardest, so it's a nice surprise. RANT: I'm just tired. Always.
