Re: Team Green Check-In
I will be 34 weeks on Friday and RCS is scheduled for 8am on April 4th - days after my birthday! I will be 39 weeks. Feeling good overall although I did cry last night because my husband ate his snack downstairs and I thought he was coming right back up. In retrospect maybe I overreacted (although in my defense, he usually comes right back upstairs so obviously I would be like "what are you doing?" when he was gone for like 15 minutes!
What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby?
We have never lived in Iowa in the spring so I'm not sure what to expect!! I'm assuming it'll still be cool. I bought a little fleece over-suit in case it's freezing still.
In what ways has this pregnancy affected your relationship?
We are a stronger team than ever, especially after our loss that we had in the spring, we are truly a team (unless one of us eats our snack downstairs, apparently!)
Any recent dreams that made you think you were having a boy or a girl?
Nope!
What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby? I'm in MA, so April is still damn chilly. I'm going to need to remember to bring blankets to the hospital for baby to use going home, because there's no way I'm buying a jacket in NB size.
In what ways has this pregnancy affected your relationship? My husband is freaking out and when he freaks out he gets distant. Outside baby is going to be easier for husband to relate to, right now it's just the terrifying idea of fatherhood he's contemplating rather than a small creature actively puking on him. I don't feel like myself either and I can't wait to go back to being me (even mommy-me) rather than this strange woman who can't sleep and is always in pain. I think we'll have it rough the first couple of months but we'll muscle through it.
Any recent dreams that made you think you were having a boy or a girl? I've started dreaming of baby pretty much every night and it's always a girl. Who knows, I'm pretty sure it's all wishful thinking.
What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby? I figure it'll be highs in the 40's. it's April, Chicago...rain, chilly. Maybe it'll be warm, but I doubt it.
In what ways has this pregnancy affected your relationship? I'd say we're stronger as a unit. More focused on the end goal. DH has been great about keeping up with tasks to get everything ready for baby. Normally he procrastinates a lot, but he's been very prepared and it's been great.
Any recent dreams that made you think you were having a boy or a girl? I've been having birth dreams, but then when it comes time for them to announce the sex, they just hand me the baby. No one says anything!
What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby?
I'm hoping for the 60s. April here can be either be in the 40-50s or in the 70-80s. But I have a a cotton outfit packed and a fleece just in case.

What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby? Hmm... I'm on the west coast, in BC, and I'm due at the very end of April, so it should be pretty spring-like! Lots of shoots coming up in the garden, April rain, cherry blossoms, promisingly warm days... Spring is my favorite time of year
In what ways has this pregnancy affected your relationship? With DH you mean? Well, not much really. We're less physically intimate right now, but that's to be expected at this point and DH's being a good sport about it. My first pregnancy dramatically affected our relationship, as it's a big transition to go from a couple who can give 100% of their attention to their SO, to parents that have to divide their time and affections between family members. And it's usually a high stress time because there are extra financial pressures, the anxiety of anticipating a big change, feeling ill-equipped for a huge new responsibility, etc. I remember we bickered a lot... I think DH felt insecure at times. This time around, there's beenm none of that... The nursery was already done, we already have all the baby stuff, we already know what a newborn is like and what to expect, etc. It's been really nice!
Any recent dreams that made you think you were having a boy or a girl? I dream that it's a girl constantly... never that it's a boy.
32w feeling like I'm in my first trimester all over again.
What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby?
Nope. Ohio should totally not have snow by the middle of April. *SHOULD*
In what ways has this pregnancy affected your relationship?
Can't say much has changed.

What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby?
In theory we shouldn't have snow any more by the end of April in MI. But based on the way that this whole winter has gone I am convinced that it is never going to get warm again! In theory it should be in the upper 50's-60's but I will be happy if we are above freezing and its not actively snowing!

What do you expect the weather in your area to be like around the time when you are bringing home baby? I would love a sunny Carolina Blue Sky, and in the 60s-70s but we will see how it goes.
In what ways has this pregnancy affected your relationship? It really has made DH and I so much closer than we were before.
Any recent dreams that made you think you were having a boy or a girl? Had a dream last night that it was a girl and we were calling her by name.
