How are you feeling? I'm doing OK. Sore hips, hands, and feet, and sleep is getting tough to come by. Lots of reflux throughout the day and especially at night and my mood swings haven't let up much (sorry, DH!) Nothing pointing to baby arriving earlier than expected, though, which is good.
Upcoming appointments? Monday weekly appt, my first cervical check and GBS swab (I feel like I am the last person to get these things done because I'm due at the tail end of the month!)
Questions? Not really.
GTKY: If baby came today, and you could only bring ONE thing to the hospital with you, what would it be? My toiletry items/makeup (okay, maybe that's two but I wrote the question so I'm bending the rules!). Pretty much everything else I absolutely need will be given by the hospital, but I am someone who seriously cannot feel dirty/greasy/sitting in a hospital bed for days without washing my hair, etc. I would need those things to make me feel human again.
How are you feeling? Hip pain, back pain, insomnia, weird BM's. But I had a haircut and mani/pedi last night and I'm now on Mat leave, so it's not all bad
GTKY: If baby came today, and you could only bring ONE thing to the hospital with you, what would it be? iPad would come in handy for both entertainment and pics
feeling pretty good. the only pain i have is occasionally feeling like someone kicked me in the crotch. it hurts more with exercise which makes me very sad because i have been so active throughout. i might have to slow down exercising next week
Upcoming appointments?
check up monday, tues/fri nst. i hope they check me for dilation again next week. last week i was at a 0 dilation and my cervix wasnt effaced at all. july baby? haha
This is my last ticker change! Baby is coming by c section on 6/6!
Weeks/Fruit: 37 Weeks/Watermelon (due 6/21)
How are you feeling? Really good, except I think I have a migraine. Staying in the dark helps.Drinking caffeine helps. An hour later, it comes back. Thinking migraine because of the blurry vision and some of the other symptoms. Thinking its coming on slow, trying to keep it off.
Went to dinner with friends last night, then was the DD for them to go to the bar. Ended up staying out till last call! The looks people gave me, classic. Going out again tonight to dinner with friends, should be fun, but still recovering from last night. Super sleepy, and can't wait to do NOTHING tomorrow.
Upcoming appointments? Pre-op on Thursday, and Friday is delivery day.
Questions? Is it too late to change my mind? Just kidding. But if anyone has any last minute advice, lay it on me!
GTKY: If baby came today, and you could only bring ONE thing to the hospital with you, what would it be?
Ipad. More entertaining than hubby! (Again, just kidding.)
How are you feeling? Very tired, anxious, and nervous!
Upcoming appointments? On Wednesday I go in to have my scheduled c section! So scared
Questions? Anyone else have a scheduled c section? If so, how have you been mentally preparing for it?
GTKY: If baby came today, and you could only bring ONE thing to the hospital with you, what would it be? My phone. (Granted that DH doesn't count as one thing lol)
How are you feeling? Easily tired and FULL. My back hurts all the time. I guess I am nesting because we are getting. shit. done. for the baby this weekend. It feels great to do, but I am exhausted.
Upcoming appointments? Wednesday- ultrasound, NST and appointment. Nothing ever happens at these and it is starting to feel like a waste of my time.
Questions? echoing the "are we done yet?" sentiment.
GTKY: If baby came today, and you could only bring ONE thing to the hospital with you, what would it be? Cozy p.j.s (I will assume my husband will be there and he will have his phone? That is cheating, isn't it?)
sparklenshine_89- my baby had been moving like crazy and I have noticed today and yesterday it is less- I am going to assume that means he/she is getting ready to come out and party!
@sparklenshine_89 I think movement slowed down for me at the end. I told the doctor and he said as long as I still feel her moving. I still think if things feel off for you then you should address it with the doctor.
My baby was born this week so no ticker change day updates for me. She does have the doctor this week. She lost a little too much weight at the hospital so they checked today. Her weight went up but not back up to birth weight so she has to get checked again Friday. Also they made me re check her bilirubin and it went up a little so she has to have that re checked Monday. Her poor little foot and been poked so much. I hope everything goes smoothly for everyone these last few weeks. This was baby number 3 for me. I know it's so hard at the end.
I am having a scheduled c section on Friday! I am trying to not focus on the surgery, it scares me. I watched a bunch of animated surgeries just to know what to expect, but mostly focusing on the fact that I am going to be a mommy this week. Trying to get the house in order, eating out as much as possible, enjoying being child free before everything comes to pass.

Questions? Has fetal movement slowed down for you? Yesterday and today he has been so still... He moves around but hardly.
GTKY: If baby came today, and you could only bring ONE thing to the hospital with you, what would it be? My phone to take pictures. Or DH.
