2. How are you feeling? As good as you can be when you're this pregnant!

4. Anything else exciting going on? Um, babies tomorrow!

QOTW: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Food? If we're having turkey, my nana's stuffing. I'm Canadian and we already had thanksgiving- I made the best ham of my life so that was my favourite this year.

ksgsmu · November 2014

Hey ladies mobile bumping here!

I'm 29 weeks and was released from the hospital on Friday! Baby a had a huge growth spurt, his fluid rose to a normal (although low normal) level and my cervix didn't shorten! Oh my how I cried tears of joy! It was so scary last week but all seems to be holding steady as of now! I am at home on bedrest until the babies come but I'm so grateful they are baking a bit longer i will not complain! I will start seeing MFM and OB weekly and have weekly growth scan and NST to make sure.

My prayers have been answered!

QOTW: I think my favorite is the sweet potatoe cassarole

APRILMW · November 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 31w4d

2. How are you feeling? Ok. Uncomfortable, but that's expected at this point! The contractions are annoying & hurt when standing, feels like bowling balls are gonna fall out!

3. Any Dr. Appointments or updates? No appt this week - next one is next Wednesday.

4. Anything else exciting going on? Finally got our cribs & put them together this weekend, pulled car seats out of boxes & they're ready to be installed. Diaper bag packed, all baby laundry done!

QOTW: Love The stuffing & gravy!!!!

AandStilltrying · November 2014

1. 27 weeks + 3 days
2. S is Feeling large and grouchy! Can't get comfortable on the couch and takes it out on anybody around her.
3. No dr. Appointments this week but scheduled c-section for Jan. 28th officially. It was going to be the 29th, but we don't like the doctor doing them that day! Love the one on 28th, so 28th it is! Hoping we make it that long!
4. We got the hutch for the dresser and it's broken!!!! Not sure what's going to happen now. Buybuybaby was a pain to work with to even get this hutch. *sigh*. I know I don't HAVE to have it, but I WANT it.

it's what sold me on this particular set of furniture.

Qotw: Love my moms baked beans, homemade hot rolls and mac salad!!! Too much goodness!

kefttsc · November 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 28w2d
2. How are you feeling? I feel like I'm growing exponentially from day to day. I have had a few nights in a row of horrible sleep, so bad that I'm sleeping in the guest room so that DH can have some rest. I'm pretty cranky, but trying to hold it together.
3. Any Dr. Appointments or updates? Our next appointment is 2 weeks from today. It would normally be a week from today, but my doctor had the nerve to go on vacation! How dare he!!

4. Anything else exciting going on? I've been having really horrible dreams that have been making me pretty anxious. I woke up this morning demanding that we pack the hospital bag this week just in case. I'm just starting to get anxious about birthing and raising two babies (any babies!). I pride myself in always being prepared, etc. and that just isn't possible, so hence the anxiety.

QOTW: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Food? Sweet potato casserole!!! NO NUTS.

mrsrichey11 · November 2014

1. 31 weeks tomorrow!

2. I feel like a beached whale. I can't move really once I lay down and standing up from my office chair is getting more difficult by the day. I'm barely sleeping and I feel like I'm just laying there with my eyes closed.

3. Next appointment is on Wednesday. I have another growth scan and a regular OB appointment, nothing out of the ordinary =]

4. Nothing exciting going on right now, which is a good thing I guess!

QOTW: Stuffing and green bean casserole!

GirPipley · November 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 8w2d

2. How are you feeling? I'm feeling great, just tired and heart burn.

3. Any Dr. Appointments or updates? Had my first appointment with my new OB today. I love her, and the twins are looking great. Baby A heart rate was 162, baby B was 158. They are measuring 4 days behind, but OB said that's no big deal at all.

4. Anything else exciting going on? Not really. We are two weeks away from moving, so that's starting to get stressful...

QOTW: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Food? I like the combo bites.

breezyweezer · November 2014

1. I am 12 weeks.

2. I am lucky to be having a great second trimester, I feel *almost* like I did before I was pregnant.

3. Next appointment is Dec. 11, not looking forward to it because I still really dislike my OB. First MFM appt. is Dec. 31, so I guess our New Years gift will be finding out their sex!

4. I am finishing my last 6 hours of college next semester, If all goes well I will graduate just before the twins are born.

I actually made my mom a list of everything I want this year, lol. Bacon wrapped jalapenos (not technically tgiving food but I want them so BAD), dressing, rolls, deviled eggs, and broccoli cheese and rice casserole were my must haves. I'm buying the turkey to try and make up for being so greedy! lol

neongreen · November 2014

I might as well make this my intro post! (I've already learned so much from lurking on this forum - the Dr. Luke book is on its way from Amazon as we speak!)

1. I'm 9w5d

2. So far, this pregnancy has been pretty easy. (Knock on whatever.) A little cramping and twinges yesterday and today, but I figure everything's just growing the way it's supposed to.

3. I had an appointment with the MFM last week, so nothing for a while. I next see the MFM and his crew on December 4th, where they'll do the NT scan. I still have to decide if we're doing the Verifi test, which I'm totally torn on. Then on the 5th, I have a meeting with a new OB practice, since my previous OB/GYN practice is only seeing patients up to 12 weeks now.

4. Not much exciting going on here. Though a video game I've been looking forward to comes out this week, so there's another excuse for me to do nothing but sit on my butt and gestate.

QOTW: I love cranberry sauce. Actually, I love cranberry anything!

MrsF0831 · November 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 15w2d
2. How are you feeling? ehhh ok at times, a bit uncomftorable a lot as well. especially after i eat. My lower back is starting to tighten up as we speak . isnt it too soon for this ? lol
3. Any Dr. Appointments or updates? had a dr apt today where we hear the heart beats on the doppler
4. Anything else exciting going on? nope not really

QOTW: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Food? if i had to choose I guess ham mixed w the mac n cheese lol

chrissynena · November 2014

3. BPP today, went great. Pre op appt on Thursday!!

4. Nope, just trying to hold out my last two weeks.

QOTW: ham and my moms baked beans. Yummmmm

PeaceofKia · November 2014

I'm 27+3 today.

I was diagnosed with GD on Thursday after failing my 3 hour gtt last Monday. I've now added an endocrinologist and dietician to my roster if doctor's. I have Appts with all 4 of my crew this week. Nice to know I gave do many people looking after me though. I have to check my blood levels 4 times a day and see my endo Friday with my log. If my levels were not managed well with dietary changes, she'll put me on insulin.

That's my update for this Monday. *blah *

courtlandmatthew · November 2014

27 weeks and feeling miserable. This one girl is so low she feels like she is going to drop out. I know it won't get easier so I'm trying to stay positive. Next week I have my GD test, an ultrasound and OB appointment. My favorite is stuffing and pumpkin our!

studentnurse2011 · November 2014

1. How many weeks are you? 20 weeks tomorrow!

2. How are you feeling? Not too bad. Just annoying symptoms like heartburn and some braxton hicks when I overdo it.

3. Any Dr. Appointments or updates? We meet our MFM tomorrow and have our anatomy scan. I can't wait to see both babies and am praying that they are both healthy and growing right on track! We aren't finding out the sexes, but this is still an exciting appointment!

4. Anything else exciting going on? Not really...just gearing up for the holidays! I am kind of looking forward to having a couple of "slow" weeks between appointments and the holidays where my work schedule isn't totally nuts.

QOTW: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Food? Fried turkey, dressing, and lots of cranberry sauce!!

shurlired · November 2014

4. Exciting? Nursery is almost complete. Just need to hang the pictures on the wall that are sitting in the cribs!
5. Thanksgiving? Excited for some alone time with the hubby on Thanksgiving day. Then some family members may come in town the weekend after... Super excited to see some folks!

Mrs.McIrish · November 2014

Good luck today RayRay!

yay for being released Ksgsmu!

I'm 38 wks tomorrow and headed to hospital for induction as long as they aren't "too busy" with women in active labor (I'll get bumped if so). I wasn't dilated at all yesterday so Mfm as to be prepared for induction to take a "few" days... I'll be honest-- I'm terrified of the induction failing to be productive and just ending up with a c/s after a long labor... Also terrified of 2 babies coming out gigantic out of my vag!!! Anyway, I'm feeling ok physically (as well as you can at this point) and ready to get this show on the road. I'm guessing the girls will be born on Friday...

jaytee16 · November 2014

MKateG · November 2014

How many weeks are you? 32!

How are you feeling? Uncomfortable. BH have been more frequent and more uncomfortable than usual. I was a little concerned yesterday so I called the on call dr last night, he reassured me that this is normal with twin pregnancy (that was nice to know since Google said I should be concerned :-) yes I should've known better) but he told me to take a benadryl to relax my uterus and it KNOCKED me out! So yay for a good night's sleep!

Any dr apts? Tm is my 32 week, we'll have u/s and cervix check

Anything exciting? We took maternity pics Sunday in our back yard :-) posted below!
