Totally forgot, sorry! I even lurked on the Preggie Pact and forgot to post.

GTKY: What part of expanding your family has you most excited? Most worried?

    I won't officially say it, but I sometimes feel very ready to not be pregnant. Katniss has been wildly active from about 9 pm to 2 am, and it's super painful every night, on top of not letting me sleep.

    Edit, posted too soon...
    I've got a MW appointment tomorrow, and I'm debating whether or not I should ask her for a membrane sweep.

    Also, J and. I have semi officially narrowed our name list from like 20 names to four or so that we really like.

    GTKY: I'm most excited to meet Katniss and to watch A get to be a big sister. I'm most worried about my ability to parent two babies, especially because of how much attention I was able to devote to A as a newborn, I feel like Katniss is going to get the shaft.
    Have you had your membranes stripped before? My old MW rarely did it because she said it only worked if your body was ready to go into labor and at that point, what's the point? Otherwise it caused uncomfortable contractions that piddle out and then nothing happens. But, lots of providers swear by it! So I'm very curious.

    No I haven't. I was a few days shy of my due date with A when I gave birth, and was totally ready to continue being pregnant for a couple more weeks. We would have been trying it before considering a medicated induction, though. My MW said the same thing about it only working if your body is ready, which is really just true of any induction method, medicated or not. I think I'm not going to ask for one. I don't know.

    34 weeks now and after lots of spinning babies/2x week chiro appts. baby has officially flipped head down! That is making me feel so much better. 

    Today my coworkers are throwing me a baby shower. For as much as I am ready to have the baby and possibly stay home I really think I'll miss them. 

    Being a FTM I feel that anything and everything has me both equally excited and worried. I think that I'm most excited to see DH as a dad. He has been super cute and so connected this entire pregnancy that I feel like once the baby is here he'll be so into it. Makes me a little teary thinking about it. And I think I'm most worried about dealing with my crazy brother and SIL. Their baby is due any day now so our kids will be about a month apart. They're so anal about everything that I don't want their craziness to affect how calm and collected I've been.

    I'm most worried about caring for and parenting 2u2. Our life is hectic and crazy enough, I can't imagine how little time we'll have for.... anything once #2 is here. I feel like we come home from work, immediately start dinner, play, bath, nighttime routine, get P to sleep and then start prepping for the next day. Rinse and repeat. How on Earth are we going to stay sane with 2??


    Actually, I rescind. I'm most anxious about pumping again. FML. I EP'd for 13 months with P due to preemie issues and her preferences, but I had 6 mo at home with her. My mat leave will be super short this time, maybe 8-10 weeks, which means I'll be pumping, pumping, pumping no matter how good a BFer #2 is..... shit, now I want to cry into a glass of wine.

    I went to my appt today and I'm 3 cm. I've been feeling really weird all day. Kind of crampy and back pains. Can I be on ute watch? Get the live cameras rolling ;)

    ETA: I'm so fucking scared of having three kids in the house so I don't like the gtky question today :D
