Re: weekly check in - week of 2/7
Rave: We had such a relaxing babymoon! It was great to spend time away with DH before LO gets here.
Rant: Gained 10 lbs since my last midwife visit 4 weeks ago, but can't say I'm surprised with my nightly ice cream sundaes. Definitely going to cut back a bit on those lol
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? The Sound of Metal. I really enjoyed it! I really like Riz Ahmed as an actor and thought he did a great job with this role.
@karisahamdi ok what's this sound of metal about?? Color me intrigued.
Rant: Gah this heartburn is bad!
Rave: I made a local mom friend! We both have dogs too and she’s so nice!!!
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? DH and I watched Pig the other night, a new Nick Cage movie. It was AMAZING!!! The main character is so complex. Think if Gordon Ramsey and Bear Grylls had a baby who was raised by John Wick. Yeah.
Est. Due Date / Weeks + Days: May 7, 27w3d
Rave: my mom is the absolute best. DD1’s homeschool co-op was canceled today (teacher had a covid exposure), so she asked if she could take DD1 and DD2 to chick-fil-a for lunch and to play on the newly-reopened play place there, which the girls love. She texted me after lunch “kidnapping your kids. See you after dinner” and took them for the entire freaking afternoon. So not only did I actually get stuff done around the house with only 1 kid here, the girls came home exhausted and already bathed so they finished getting ready for bed and crashed. Hallelujah!
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think?
lol DH and I have been doing a Tolkien rewatch so the last movie we watched was The Two Towers, which I love. LOTR in general is probably my favorite movie series of all time. Other than that, I probably haven’t seen a “new” movie while it was still new since like…Avengers: End Game 😂
May 28th, 24 weeks and 3 days
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? We watched Wreck It Ralph the other night as a family. It’s one of our favourites.
@fireflyz_56 love Wreck It Ralph! I sobbed the first time I watched it lol
@skc040512 excellent choice. Huge LOTR fan over here. DH and I just finished a rewatch of all 3 a couple months ago.
@fireflyz_56 I said the same thing to DH tonight...my bump feels so stretched out like he and my ute is going through a growth spurt lol. I'm sorry MIL keeps commenting on you body, it's frustrating to hear people fixate on something you can't control. I've gotten a few comments about "you're getting big!" or "wow, you still have 3.5 months left?" or "wow you're gonna have a big baby". Yes, yes, I know, I'm not tiny, yes, I'll likely have a big baby, but also, have you ever seen a pregnant woman? This is nothing.
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? Hmmm probably Encanto! I loved it, and especially loved watching DD dancing. Toddler dancing is the best
@fireflyz_56 I’m with you, I feel giant and am tired of people commenting on my size, even if it’s positive.
@taylorharris0522 we didn’t do anything sign language wise ourselves, but our daycare did. DD just recently started signing for more (probably around 16m or so). It’s definitely worth a shot!
@karisahamdi glad you all had a good baby moon!
@karisahamdi yayyy for a great babymoon! I need one!! 😆
@taylorharris0522 our daycare did the sign language fairly early on. I loved it!
@fireflyz_56 DH mom needs to STFU. Sometimes I wish you could just instantly taze people who say stupid shit to you when you’re pregnant. “HOLY CRAP!! You sure it’s not twins?!?!”
Rave- My dresser that was suppose to be on back-order until the 18th is supposed to be delivered by tomorrow, so I'm excited about that!
Rant- I bought a maternity dress off Amazon and it was a bust. I even sized up from the chart (according to my current measurements). I guess it'll make a cute church dress post-partum?
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think?
Ron's Gone Wrong- it was cute!
@pajamstagrams This is my first pregnancy, but I am really petite and have been all belly, so I just assumed that is why I have felt so bad so early on. I love my baby and we are SO grateful, but ready to have my body back!
@fireflyz_56 I had a sub teacher see me in the hallway yesterday and ask me, "How many days left? You look like your gonna pop!" 90 days. I have 3 months left. I totally relate to you, SO ANNOYING!
@MrsLaLaBug I have very short lived bursts of energy, LOL! But I think the reality of how close it is for baby to be here (we are under 100 days now) has definitely lit a fire under my a** lmao.
@pajamstagrams I swear I wasn't miserable until 10 days before brith last time. This time I'm feeling all sorts of hurt each day.
@taylorharris0522 our daycare taught our DD sign language from a young age and to this day she still uses it. The most helpful was "more" when she wasn't able to say more!
@skc040512 that is amazing about your mom! How lucky! I wish I had my mom closer do be able to do things like that with DD.
@b_1029 go girl! you enjoy that night off and dinner out! totally deserved.
@mrslalabug I loved Encanto as well! Each time DD wants to watch a movie I suggest that hoping that she says yes.
@sph97 Are you at the point where you are carrying tums around 24/7....not like I know from experience. ha.
@fireflyz_56 good luck on the glucose test!!
Est. Due Date / Weeks + Days: 28w3d
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? Oh gosh... I can't even think of the last movie I watched entirely but I think it was a Denzel Washington one...The Equalizer. I thought it was good - every movie he has been in I have enjoyed.
My baby also has super active days and mellow days, I assume the mellow days are him growing a little extra lol.
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? Coco. It’s a cute movie can’t go wrong with Disney/Pixar. DD is on a real Disney+ kick right now so I’ll take watching a full length movie over watching the same 5 short clips of dug days or Olafs adventures over and over again.
@karisahamdi baby moon sounds amazing, glad you were able to enjoy it.
@pajamstagrams I just told my DH that everything seems to be happening earlier this time around. The sleeping poorly, heartburn, the back aches. I seriously wonder how I will make it til May.
@fireflyz_56 when I was pregnant with DD my MIL called me gorda multiple times and talked about how much weight I gained. She is very into weight (FIL too) not sure why. I def had DH talk to her about it though as it was frustrating especially when you don’t feel like yourself because of all the changes your body is going through to bring another human into this world. Luckily she hasn’t said much this pregnancy but I’ve also been wearing baggier clothing and and just kept my distance. Hopefully it stops!
@skc040512 congrats on the cough going away!
@b_1029 girls night out sounds awesome I would love to join
@MrsLaLaBug good luck with the glucose test I take mine next Monday as well. Hoping I don’t have to take the 3 hour test like last pregnancy. All that waiting was brutal.
@sph97 heartburn is the worst. I normally don’t have it at all when not pregnant *knock on wood* and it is just awful. Even water can trigger it for me which is just horrible.
@And846 I felt like I overdid it this weekend and just needed to lay and bed and do nothing to recoup. LO is all over the place in activity for me too. Sometimes they are moving and grooving constantly and other time I wonder where they’ve been.
@pajamstagrams I'm sorry you are so uncomfortable!
@taylorharris0522 We did some baby sign with with DD and it is helpful, especially for family or babysitters who don't pick up on their other cues you might know. We didn't start doing it consistently until she was older.
@MrsLaLaBug Yes, I also feel so big and heavy at the end of the day! My bump is so much bigger at the end of the day when I think my core just gives up. Ha!
@And846 That's timely advice.
@addsprinkles521 good luck with your glucose test!
@fireflyz_56 That's super annoying about our MIL. I'm sorry you have to deal with that!
Est. Due Date / Weeks + Days: 24+2
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? I honestly can't remember the last movie I watched besides Frozen with DD. It might have been the most recent James Bond movie. That's not my favorite genre but it was ok.
Rave:..... idk honestly lol
Detective Pikachu. I think I'd like to watch a movie made for adults for once lol!

GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? Encanto- loved it!
Est. Due Date / Weeks + Days: 25 weeks 6 days
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think?
Encanto. I’m in the minority here because I thought it was the most boring movie ever. And I love most like that! Ron’s gone wrong is a favorite at our house but encanto just didn’t work for me.
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? Probably some dumb kid movie … ugh
GTKY: What was the last movie you watched? What did you think? I think The Power of the Dog and I thought it was pretty great - really enjoyed the acting and storytelling, the soundtrack was interesting, and it was gorgeous to look at.
