    Week: 25/ cauliflower
    News /feeling: lots of backaches and heartburn but I'll survive
    GTKY: First time mom here. My shower is this Saturday, so end of my 25th week. Early, I know but it fit with my best friends schedule from CA so she could be out here . SO excited! Plus I figure I'll know what I still need to get and can spread out those costs...

    Week/Fruit - Week 23, Grapefruit

    News/Feeling - Feeling pretty good. I've just had to start pacing myself a bit - when I'm on my feet too much cleaning/cooking my back and pelvis get Really sore, so I'm trying to just stop and take a break and read a book with dd when I start to feel sore, seems to be keeping my pain at bay which is good

    GTKY: STM here (I have an almost 4 yo). I had a friend offer to throw me a shower yesterday, I politely declined and asked for a lunch our with her instead. We really need next to nothing for the baby, and the few things we do need I have pretty much already purchased. Shower first time around was fun though :) My MIL threw it for me at 31 weeks

    Week: 23/grapefruit

    Feeling okay - back is KILLING me. Other than that, seem to be good to go. Some minor emotional break downs and tears, but no biggie!

    FTM - having a few showers - my parents are all divorced and have huge families so we are splitting up the families - first is in early May and other one is last week of May. I am very glad, because I did not want to be doing that and hauling things home too far along!

    I keep thinking we are almost there and then I look at the weeks left in my "what to expect" book and realize it is pretty far off :( already ready to meet my boy!

    24 weeks along

    So much gas, so much reflux, but other than that, great!

    I really don't enjoy baby showers.  I didn't have a shower with my first, and when a friend offered to throw one this time around I asked if we could do a spa day instead.

    Sorry, I'm late on this one:
    Week/Fruit (or Veg): 25 weeks, cauliflower

    No news, not feeling too wonderful.  So stinking tired all the time.  I work full time and I have a 20 month old at home.  I feel so guilty when I get home, but most days I only have the energy to cook dinner and watch DS play.  I really should do more.

    GTKY: I'm a STM, no showers that I know of.

    I'm late too, but am going to share anyway.

    Week 25, a cauliflower.

    New symptoms are pelvis/hip pain and heartburn. Had both of them last time, but was hoping for a different experience this time. Oh well, only 15 weeks left! I have found that continuing with my daily workouts has helped me not to feel so shaky and weak on my feet from said pelvis/hip pain. Also, I had to stop doing ab floor work like crunches and leg lifts, boohoo. I now do transverse abdominal exercises while standing against a wall. It's also a good way to keep the pelvic floor muscles toned by adding pelvis tilts and Kegels. Leaky pee is no fun!

    I'm a STM, my first baby just turned 2 this month. I had a shower with her when I was in my 8th month. No showers this time, but I wish I had bought more stuff as opposed to borrowing it last time! All of my friends seem to be expecting around the same time as me and I had to give back the swing, bouncer, nap nanny, tub, jumparoo, baby bjorn, I even have to buy a new infant car seat!
