Shit Got Real Sunday!

MrsT2008 · February 2014

I don't think I've seen this yet today.

Did anything happen this week that made this more real?

MrsT2008 · February 2014

For me, I had a hair appt on Friday and when I went to schedule my next one, I couldn't go as far out as I usually do (I'm trying to grow my hair out, so I've been scheduling 10 weeks between cuts, but with only 12 weeks to my due date, I didn't want to be cutting it too close (my hairdresser is 40 minutes away) so I had to schedule only 8 weeks out). The idea that I might not even make it to my next hair appt was kind of a "whoa" moment.

Divine0chaos · February 2014

Realized were less than 80 days until the due date so I finally started planning out things we have left to get/do. Made my labor call list, friends(no family close by)who can take me to the hospital and watch my three year old son. Since hubby will most likely be out to sea during the birth.

Got my first taste of BH while shopping with MIL today.

lauralou3x3 · February 2014

My DH and FIL got the baby's dresser and crib set up this weekend. Weird to think a little human will be using it soon!

Mimaloo · February 2014

Watching my stomach move under my clothes made me realize that this shit is real! And I have less than 80 days to go....

yepyepsms · February 2014

Hitting the 10 weeks to go mark...and talking about what we are going to do with our toddler when I go into labor....(closest family 2 hrs away and just moved here so no real friends yet).

mamagerman · February 2014

Kept up last night by what were my first noticeable BH and by baby making it hard to breathe. She's getting so big. Is it May yet? I can't wait to meet my little one!

momthatlifts · February 2014

I technically entire third tri tomorrow. Shit still doesn't feel real. Pregnancy brain feels real though!

ns1 · February 2014

Shooting pain through my left butt cheek, dull pain throughout my body from my shoulders to my feet, and a return of nausea - I feel like I've been given a violent shove into 3rd tri. and I'm still not really there! And I ordered the last big ticket items online today (crib mattress, etc.). I also made a bunch of framed pictures for the nursery and decoupaged the lamp shade. The nursery is kind of starting to look like a nursery!

awisern · February 2014

I bought baby an easter basket to match DS's and had DH put it into storage. I said we wouldn't be needing it this year. DH reminded me that Easter is the end of April and I'm due the beginning of May so there is a possibility she could be here at easter. It freaked me out.

And my dogs were sitting in my lap tonight while I was on the floor playing with DS...everytime they would get near me DS would get jealous and need me to hold him. I don't know what we are going to do about jealousy once baby is here.

My shower invites were just sent out this week. Checked my registry this morning- 6 items already bought. My shower isn't until March.

This morning I pre-registered at the hospital where I'll be delivering LO.

TaylorHam86 · February 2014

I've been feeling LO move like crazy, nearly all day, every day. I've seen him several times on many U/S, heard his heartbeat dozens of times with the Doppler, watched my belly move when he does and have even seen his face in 3D a couple times. I am completely gaga, head over heels in love with him.

Still, there's been a little bit of a disconnect, and I didn't even realize it until the other night.. Baby boy was extra active, and when I put my hand on my belly, I could feel his body. Not just a jab or a poke, but his foot and his shin. Honestly it kind of scared me at first. It was like, holy shit, there's a HUMAN in there!! It's not just a little blob! It has parts and they function!

That probably sounds crazy. I've had two A/S, an NT scan, a fetal echo, and a few other regular checkup U/S. You'd think it would have clicked earlier than last week, but no. Shit's getting real now. I don't think I'll ever forget that moment.

jjtyler · February 2014

I was just informed of my shower date and also realized that with my scheduled C-section, I have like 79 days left!!!!

jjones59 · February 2014

I hit 27 weeks tomorrow and the third tri is here....that's pretty real. I have to think that with my DD, she was here in 10 weeks from now (she came at 37 weeks). Oh my.

March begins this week. :O

Sarac2288 · February 2014

Figuring out bills for the next few months and realizing only 5 paychecks till my actual due date. An I keep saying he will be here the end of April so that would be even less

bumpuser9353653 · February 2014

I can't "suck it in" anymore to get through a tight space. We were at a baptism party today and there were several times I walked around the long way in the house b/c my belly would have bumped everyone if I tried to squeeze through.

Also, my c/s is scheduled so now there's an official "no later than" date. crazy.

cbrust · February 2014

I had my shower yesterday, came home with tons of baby crap. Realized its time to get organized!

Honestly, I had no idea.

I also may have left my wallet at a restaurant last night. Didn't even realize it until DH pointed it out. Pregnancy brain at its finest.

PrincessJess19 · February 2014

Under 100 days (I'm due the 31st), entering 3rd trimester, put in my resignation since I'll be staying at home, and started crossing stuff off the before-she-gets-here list. Oh yeah and dreams about her (last night the dr told me that at 26 weeks she was already 9 pounds and I panicked because I still have 14 weeks...)

sammy.k · February 2014

I scheduled our hospital tour (delivering at a new hospital this time) and signed DS up for a sibling class. I can't believe he's going to be a big brother!

MrsT2008 · February 2014

oh yes, every-2-week appts!

ama7165 · February 2014

30 weeks on Saturday, now LESS than 10 weeks til edd! Shower invites mailed out and only one month away.

QOTR · February 2014

I went to a local maternity store to try out slings yesterday. The nice salesperson helped me put on a k'tan and then she placed a doll in it. I immediately got a nervous stomach and tears sprung to my eyes. I have no idea what I'm doing and I'm terrified.

mileswithmyles · February 2014

We have a crib set up and I only have 1 more "every 4 weeks" appointment!

lauralou3x3 · February 2014

I just had another one today. I felt hiccups for the first time tonight! I wasn't sure at first because it's a strange feeling but it def was that! So so weird/amazing/cool!

whitneymarie003 · February 2014

Ditto to what @TaylorHam86 said! I'm starting to feel body parts when he moves around in my belly. I had a minor panic attack the first time it happened. I just kept thinking "I just touched my baby's foot. He's really in there." I was actually surprised I didn't get that "Aha!" moment sooner!

AugustGlass · February 2014

I had to go to labor & delivery last night for a UTI. Crazy that I'll be there in less than 100 days to actually have the baby.

JessElam · February 2014

- I am now having appointments every two weeks.
- I'm also feeling body parts.
- DH and I were about to have sexy time and he was laying against me kissing me and started feeling my stomach moving against him. Killed that moment...won't be the first time kiddo interferes with sexy time!

Soupy84 · February 2014

Yesterday I came home to find DH had built the crib all by himself. I had no idea he was going to put it together so I came as a very big surprise when I walked into the nursery (we have been using it as the space we hang dry our laundry for the past 2 years) to find a fully functional crib.

Cupcakes89 · February 2014

My braxton hicks are happening more often... Doesn't get anymore real then that for me! Some have hurt a little bit... not looking forward to the real contractions!

jsaffer01 · February 2014

I'm actually still waiting for the "shits getting real moment" I thought it may have happened when I can constantly feel baby move around.. But nope not then. I'm thinking it's either going to happen when the nursery is set up, or whenever I set up the hospital tour/birthing classes... Or even maybe.. When I'm actually holding this little human I made.. That may be my shit just got real moment.

awc1986 · February 2014

I hit 30 weeks! Eeeeeeeep!

Bootsie327 · February 2014

A friend of mine who is exactly 10 weeks ahead of me had her baby last night at 38.5 weeks. Whoa!

kramja01 · February 2014

My labor and delivery classes start tomorrow! Eeeeek!

Jerzeygrl329 · February 2014

The furniture that was just ordered came this past week, we weren't expecting it for another few weeks. My husband texts me and just says "this.is.happening" :-SS

firebelle26 · February 2014

We had our hospital tour on Friday. My husband said my facial expressions were priceless; they went from a huge smile to a very nervous "holy shit" kind of expression. I will be having a baby in that hospital in 3 months. Whoa.

CiaoBabyOH · February 2014

We signed up for our childbirth classes/hospital tour and our crib & dresser/changing table are now set up in the nursery! Plus I went to Destination Maternity to get new bras and it was suggested that due to my boob size, I go to the women's boutique at our local hospital since they carry special sizing! Unfortunately said boutique is only open 9am-5pm M-F...all I wanted was a few comfortable bras, now I have to take time off work to go get them! Ugh!

yvanehtnioj · February 2014

My first shit got real moment happened this week! I was at the dentist making future appointments and I realized I would have to find someone to watch the baby. I was dumbfounded for a moment and I couldn't figure out how I was supposed to make it work. The lady behind the counter was either amused or mentally rolling her eyes.

lavendergiraffes · February 2014

My mom totally had one when she was here this weekend. We were talking about something and she said how many weeks we have left. I was like no.... She said, you're 20 weeks right? No mom, I'm at 28 weeks. I was 20 at Christmas. Hahaha! The look on my parents face was hilarious.
