It's pretty quiet in here! Maybe just a monthly post to catch up on or ask about how everyone is feeling? Third trimester is here and or very quickly approaching!! 

How are you feeling? 

When do you hit third tri?

Do you have names picked yet?

Feeling okay, recently had debilitating lower back pain for a few days, had to aggressively stretch it out and get a pretty strong handed back massage to work out most of the kinks and pain and woke.up today able to actually move and twist without thinking about it! 

Hit the third trimester officially last Saturday, feeling like time has flown by this time around! 

Still absolutely stumped on names😂

I am feeling good for the most part. I totally lost track of how many weeks I am now. I hit 3rd trimester next week I think

We are having a boy and chose Jonah.

How are you feeling? 

Overall pretty good! Heartburn is starting to pick up and I’m trying to make sure I’m not overdoing things or my back pain ramps up. Feeling a little anxious because these babies will be here before I know it. I was hoping for a baby shower because it’s been 6-7 years since my last but I’m not sure that it’s going to happen. Thankfully I still have some stuff and lots of friends looking to part with their things. I even know a few coworkers with twins willing to pass stuff along. I’m sure we’ll end up fine, just feeling the nesting urge kick in. 

When do you hit third tri?
I’m 25 weeks today so a few more weeks! 

Do you have names picked yet? 

We have a short list of names but nothing certain yet. Having two boys already and adding two more is proving to be challenging when deciding names.

I’m feeling much better compared to November/December when I broke my rib. I started taking barre classes and I’m going as long as my body let’s me! My dream is to keep going til 40 weeks. I have a friend in the class and we’ve joked she is in charge of getting me to the hospital. I look pretty ridiculous since I’m already so large and I definitely don’t do everything especially the ab workouts! But it’s nice to be moving again after my recovery. My acid reflux is back with a vengeance from first trimester. But otherwise I can’t complain! Third trimester begins next week and I’m starting to get nervous since we do not have anything organized and prepared! 

As for names. We have a short list but still deciding…

25 weeks and starting to get uncomfortable. Experiencing some serious tailbone pains that I didn’t have with my first pregnancy. I work in healthcare and am scheduled to work until 37 weeks but not feeling confident I’ll make it that long 😂 baby boy is very active, almost painful kicks but thankful he feels strong. I have a 4.5 year old daughter, Olivia (Livs) and baby brothers name will be Luke. Trying to stay positive but the pelvic pain is getting intense!

@knottieb0ad38b7c3abc54e I couldn't imagine doing any sort of workout or classes right now let alone up to 40w good for you!! 

@erinar13 thankfully we have a lot of friends looking to pass things on!! I feel over prepared at this point and already out of room for baby things

Joining the game a little late, but doing well over here! Baby is kicking away and definitely getting heavier. I'll hit third trimester on Wednesday, so rapidly approaching... We're working on getting the storage room cleared out so the toddler can move in before the baby arrives. I keep thinking about all the clothes I want to go through to make sure we're set seasonally, but there's nowhere to do it... 

We have a short list of names, but we can't agree on a combination. I have boy and girl proposals currently on the table, but my husband is much more comfortable waiting to decide until later than I am, so they haven't actually been agreed upon yet...

How are you feeling? Meeehhhhhh. Definitely not in the honeymoon phase anymore (if I ever really got one)… starting to become more uncomfortable, out of breath, gassy, bloated, hemmorhoids, not sleeping… it’s not glamorous. But trying to soak in the beautiful parts of pregnancy like little baby kicks because this will likely be our last baby. 

When do you hit third tri? Already hit it - 30 weeks now! 

Do you have names picked yet? Most likely some sort of spelling of the name Casey/Kasey/Kayce. We like the spelling Kayce the best but worry it’ll be mispronounced.

Had Kayce not been at the end of the other options I'd have personally pronounced or like a nn to C/Kasey, like kay-ss.
