    How far along are you? What fruit/vegetable?
    29 weeks / acorn squash

    How are you feeling?
    Tired all day and insomnia at night! Horrible combo when you have a toddler and lots to do all day.

    Any appointments/updates?
    Waiting on the results from my one hour glucose (the new receptionist at my OB is horrible and never calls people back!) U/S and check up on the 29th

    Rants/raves?
    How is Christmas in 67 days??? That means baby boy will be here in 72 days! Time to get my act together!

    I love English Breakfast Tea! I also always have fresh brewed decaf black iced tea in the house. For coffee I love either decaf (or regular caf every once in a while) Starbucks Salted Caramel Mocha!!

    My back is hurting quite a bit this weekend. I didn't sleep really well yesterday. I'm debating between buying another pillow for my bump and/or getting a massage.
    Any appointments/updates?
    Next appointment is the 27th. Passed my glucose test with flying colors.
    Rants/raves?
    Not sure which this is but I swear I am growing the next MMA fighter. This chic punched my ribs SO hard in report this morning that I bolted upright in my seat and startled everyone around me. My ribs are still throbbing an hour later. Concerned because she's supposed to grow in there another 10+ weeks :-/

    I am a Folgers original girl with French Vanilla creamer. However, I love love love me some Vanilla Chai Lattes.  I did get some really yummy "harvest spice" black tea at a festival last weekend from a really cool company called "Steeped Tea".

    How far along are you? What fruit/vegetable? 28 weeks, the size of an eggplant.

    How are you feeling? Feeling okay. I don't know what's up with my blood sugar but I've been having lots of dizzy spells and almost passed out at work thursday and then again today. Dr said it's not to be worried about but I can't stand it. 

    Any appointments/updates? Had an appt last week and all is well. :) Next appt is in 2 weeks, we do GTT and meet with the OB Coordinator.

    Rants/raves? Ehhh....just wish we had more together for baby's arrival and I could get whatever is making me dizzy under control.

    GTKY: Are you a coffee or tea kind of gal ?? (Or maybe none of the above... Bonus points for fav brands). I hate coffee. I drink tea (chai, peppermint, sleepy time and chamomile are my favs). Right now I drink a soda every so often and when I'm not pregnant energy drinks are my friend. Even though they're awful for you.

    25 weeks! / No idea
    How are you feeling?
    Good! We had a big party last night so I'm exhausted today - but it was fun and really nice to see everyone. I'm still not out as pregnant, so I drank about a litre of soda water with lime. 
    Any appointments/updates?
    I had an ultrasound last week to check the growth, and I'll see my OB this week. H is coming with me for this appointment to meet the Dr. I think he's a little nervous. I'll get my GTT sometime after my appointment. 
    Rants/raves?
    A good friend is visiting for a couple of days with her little baby and its so nice to have them around. I wish she lived closer!

    I drink both, decaf coffee - I've avoided caffeine for the last few years because it gives me the jitters. I love decaf Earl Grey and peppermint tea too!

    Good morning ladies :-D 

     How far along are you? What fruit/vegetable? 27 weeks, rutabaga How are you feeling? Today, not so great. I've had a headache all day and no amount of water nor a nap helped. I did just take break down and some Tylenol, hoping that works. If not, I guess I'll pop open a Coke. I'm getting more uncomfortable too. I feel like it's coming earlier too. 

     Any appointments/updates? I had an appt this week and my glucose test, which I passed. Whew. But I did gain 9 lbs in a month. Gulp. That's the biggest weight gain I've ever had and this is my 3rd pregnancy. My dr was like, "hmmm, that's a big gain for you. Have you done anything different." I told her no, but pumpkin spice lattes came out. I was half kidding bc I only get them twice a week or so. But I didn't know what else to say. She measured me and I was measuring exactly at 26, to which she which said, "Perfect!" Last time she was concerned towards the end that I was measuring small with Will. Now this. 

     Rants/raves? H is golfing out of town today and didn't do a damn thing to help me get out of the house this morning to take the boys to Will's Parent-Child soccer class. I then had to chase around a 2 y/o for 45 min with a headache. He won't be home until after bedtime probably too. I'm very resentful that he gets day-long excursions like these. A few weeks ago he had a Friday boys night/Saturday my BIL's cabin and a few weeks before that, he went to a Badgers game which included tailgating for hours beforehand. Meanwhile, I had a Sunday morning to myself but had to be back in time for a bday party at lunchtime. 

    Also, my quarter st school ended yesterday and report cards are due in our grading system by 8am on Monday. Usually we get a few school days of turn around time. Gee thanks bc I want to spend any extra free time that I really don't have, grading, updating grades and writing 30 comments. I am stabby today. 

    GTKY: Are you a coffee or tea kind of gal ?? (Or maybe none of the above... Bonus points for fav brands). Coffee, as read above regarding PSL. Normally, I drink one cup (Kuerig Vue Caribou is my fav!)in the morning with Hazlenut creamer. On weekends, I'll grab a latte....one a day usually. I also like tea and now that it's cooler, I'll drink that after school while I cook dinner.
    Edited to fix my wall of text. Stupid iPad.

    @alexis.arnone I'm sure you've been asked a million times but are you drinking enough water?? I find that I get incredibly dizzy if I don't drink enough.

    Also, I went to triage a while back for those same feelings/dizziness and turned out I had a viral bug that was causing fluid in my ears which once I took medicine and cleared up I was a 1000x better and not dizzy.

    @amandad715‌ I had the same thing last appt!! I'd gained about 8 pounds the whole pregnancy then in that month put on 10. Earned me a nice lovely lecture from my NP.
