QOTD 1: I plan to start packing my bag after Christmas, but that will probably be a rolling process as I determine what should go into it. The past few days I have started looking for cute nursing pajama sets in preparation--hopefully, BFing will work well for me and LO.
QOTD2: My bloodwork showed that I am anemic, so I am now on an iron supplement. I feel like taking it is helping to boost my energy as well as LO's, because he is moving around like a mad man these days. So that is exciting, but the Charlie Horses really suck and have been more intense over the past week or so.

QOTD 1: I'll probably start packing the hospital bag after Christmas, especially since Dr said I need to be prepared just in case.
QOTD 2: restless legs at night, joined in by charlie horses. It takes me forever to get comfortable enough at night to get some sleep due to these to pesty symptoms. And ctrx and BH that i seem to get almost daily.
Hello ladies!! I cant believe how far we have come!!
I havent even thought about my bag yet.. I suppose I should probably start making a list for that.
I'm starting to find it is hard to get comfortable at night sleeping. Between DH and a little cat who needs to sleep on me it is hard to find room on the bed. DH and I arent big people I thought a queen size would be plenty of room... not!!
I'll probably pack my bag around the middle of Feb, just to be safe. I'm scheduled for a c/s at 39w 4d, so I probably won't be surprised, but you never can tell!
New pregnancy stuff: basically just all the stuff that comes along with getting a lot bigger. Pressure, hip pain, can't put on my socks, that kind of thing. She's starting to feel really heavy, even tho I know she's not yet!

QOTD2: BH. I've been having them for about 2 weeks, but didn't realize it until I met with my OB last Friday. So that's what I've been feeling. LOL.
What do they feel like? I've been getting pains that I'm not sure what they are, but I'm guessing BH. They start very low and feel like AF cramps, and then things get tight and then it goes away. Sometimes it goes into my back. Sound like what your Dr told you? Mine pulls the old "you'll know when you have BH or cx...don't worry" Grrrrr!

It's kind of hard to describe, but mine feel like a tightening down low with lots of pressure. My lower abdomen also becomes super hard. It feels like there's a water ballon in my ute that keeps getting more and more inflated and pressing on my girl parts. Weird, I know but that's the best I can do. LOL.
It's funny that your Dr told you "you'll know". LOL. Uhm, exactly how will I know, Dr?

QOTD: When will you pack your hospital bag? Hmm. Well I never used anything from my hospital bag the first time, so idk. It really isn't important to me. Maybe just throw some stuff in the car (change of clothes & toothbrush) when I go into labor.
QOTD 2: Any fun, new pregnancy issues/ailments/symptoms? Hmm. My only real "complaint" is the pubic bone pain I have been having when going from sitting/lying to standing/walking. I never had this with my son, so I am thinking that giving birth to him did some damage down there... I am still waiting for my LN to show up. I had it by 18 weeks with DS and it didn't go away until about 5 months pp. Not sure where it went... I was sure it would have come back right away when I got pg.
Re: ***March Lucky Clovers Check-In***
I suppose I will pack it after Christmas just in case I need one.
I've had some lovely charlie horses the last few days and my linea nigra is finally showing up!
Its crazy that we are almost in the 3rd tri!
QOTD1: I have no idea when to pack my hospital bag, but I have been looking and saving other people's lists to figure out what I want with me.
QOTD2: Not fun, but I started having tons of BH and mild ctx which is no good. THey seem to have calmed down and I see the Dr this afternoon.

Oh wow.... some time around Valentine's Day, I guess. Or I might wait till I actually go into labor!
QOTD 2: Any fun, new pregnancy issues/ailments/symptoms?
I'm actually feeling pretty damn good!
I probably wont pack my bag until after my shower (which is on January 31st YEA!!!)
No new symptons here just the same ol trouble sleeping. I cant wait til I can sleep on my back again cause my hips are hurting!!!
QOTD: I am not sure probably sometime in the next month or so. Kind of crazy to think about! Yay!
QOTD 2: Nothing really too exciting. Just some new back aches.

I'm not actually. I been compiling a list of things to pack though. I'm guessing I'll pack my bag around the first week of February.
QOTD2:
