    1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 39 weeks, watermelon!

    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? I have been extremely light-headed, super tired, and kinda achey.  My body is so over being pregnant.
    I have my appointment tomorrow morning and hopefully they will tell me when we are getting this baby out of me (very close to full term so flame away)

    3. GTKY:  What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn?  I did a day of the dead costume a few years ago that I loved!

    1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 38 weeks; Pumpkin (how appropriate for October babies!)


    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? Just carrying around my 10 ton stomach is complaint enough. I'm also kinda sad that I won't have an excuse to eat all the things shortly.

    3. GTKY:  What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn? Flapper - it's really a flattering costume and it's not typically whorey (win win)!

    1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 39 weeks! Watermelon. Does this mean I can get excited about the possibility of labor now? ;) 

    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? I hurt. Lots of cramps, BHs and some light real contractions recently. Appointment tomorrow. 

    3. GTKY:  What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn? I went as Slash from Guns and Roses one year of college. It was awesome because it was cold that year and while all the other girls were running around in costumes the size of bikinis and freezing their tits off, I was nice and warm.  Ps I'm not shaming anyone for tiny costumes, I wore my fair share.. But warmth won that year!

    1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie)  38 weeks, so pumpkin.   How fitting as we are getting a pumpkin in our CSA delivery this week.  

    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments?  I think my body is playing games with me - woke up last night with period like cramps only to discover several hours later that I just needed to poop.  Once that was done, the cramps went away.  Alas.    Weekly MFM appointment is today.  

    3. GTKY:  What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn?  My mom used to sew rather elaborate animal costumes when I was little.  Most people had the plastic costumes from the grocery store while I had full body costumes made from fabric.  We used to live in CO, so I could easily wear them over my regular clothing and stay warm (she would then re-use them for my pjs that winter once the decorations were removed)!  My favorite was probably a tiger - complete with tail and painted face.

    1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie) 39 weeks, watermelon (omg)

    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? Oh, the usual. Sciatic nerve pain while sleeping, general discomfort. No early labor signs at all. 39 week appointment is on Thursday, where they'll do a check and see if I've progressed from last week (I was 1.5-2cm dilated and 60-70% effaced).

    3. GTKY:  What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn? Last year, a bunch of us went as Adventure Time characters. My BFF was Jake, another friend was Finn, DH was Lumpy Space Princess (he did the voice perfectly) and I was Marceline.

    @heathera1979‌ @‌Irobi13 Good luck!

    I'm 38 weeks, pumpkin. My induction is next Wednesday! I'm nervous that it is going to take a long time, though, since my cervix is only a little soft and still shut tight. I have two more NSTs before then, so I'm sure they'll check my cervix again and we'll hopefully see some progress.

    My favorite costume in college was a herringbone deerstalker, cape, and hot pants. I added a magnifying glass and went as Little Miss Sherlock Holmes. I hate that I gave it away! I could probably still wear it, although not this year. ;)

    I am nervous too.  But I have just got to keep reminding myself to trust the process and be prepared to have a C-section if I don't progress.  It sucks but I just want to try to relax and let my body do its job.  (easier said than done ;) )

    1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby?  37w, winter melon

    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? I have an appointment after lunch, which should be short and sweet.  But I'm also wondering when I'm supposed to have my follow up for the GBS research study.  They said they would call me and line it up with my OB appointment.  That was three weeks ago, and I still haven't heard anything.  Also, the $100 that was supposed to come in the mail still hasn't arrived.

    3. GTKY:  What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn?  I went as the UnA Bomber in college.  I won a prize for my creativity, but then I got in trouble for cross dressing on campus.

    1. How many weeks are you?/How big is baby? (Fruit/Veggie)

    38 weeks - LO is the size of a pumpkin

    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments?

    Cravings - ALL of the pumpkin Pie!! Not much else.  I don't want to eat much lately.  My body hurts and I am tired.  I have my next appointment on Friday afternoon, growth scan and cerv check I think.  Monday, I thought for sure I was going into labor.  I had contractions every 4 minutes and they quicken to every 2 minutes and they were rather painful.  I was only 1 CM dialated and eventually the contractions slowed and stopped after like 4 hours or so. No idea what was up with that. Annoying though 

    3. GTKY:  What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn?
    Can't say I have one.... I have never as an adult dressed up for Halloween and don't remember the last time I did it as a kid.  Which is weird because I LOVE Halloween and DH and I always talk about doing it

    2. Symptoms, Rants, Cravings, Appointments? I still feel really good...starting to get a bit nervous/anxious for babies arrival.  I would love to eat EVERYTHING, very hungry, ready for this GD diet to be over with!  A chocolate milkshake sounds divine @bazingabee I also want some pizza! I still haven't been checked yet, so I don't know if I've progressed at all, but after a week of walking around Disney World last week, I would hope I've made some progress... 

    3. GTKY: What is your favorite Halloween Costume that you have worn? One of my favorite costumes had to have been a pregnant nun...flame away, it was awesome!  :))

    Good Luck tomorrow @heathera1979 and @Irobi13 !!! Can't wait to see your announcements!! Finally, @AppleGrapeMSTK I'm shocked that they took issue with you cross dressing, over the costume choice....FWIW, I think you had an amazing costume!

    1. 36 weeks honeydew

    2. I have an appt today. I've been having tailbone pain but am still feeling pretty good. I had such horrible pain with my last pregnancy that it makes my current aches and pains feel less painful. Lol. My mom is being a notch and my h and I are talking about moving out of state so we don't have to deal with her as often.

    3. My favorite Halloween costume was a nun costume I wore in college. It was super comfortable and for some reason guys are really attracted to nuns. I got hit on do much that Halloween!

    @PBJellyTime I went to a conservative, religious university and the guidelines specifically stated that cross dressing was not allowed.  I was playing with fire when I did it because I knew it wasn't approved.  After I got my prize, they asked me to wash my face and to remember the contract I had signed.  It wasn't like academic probation or anything, but they still let me know I was in the wrong, even though it was Halloween.  Oh well!
