Any upcoming appointments?: Next week is my 1 hour glucose test
Updates/Rants/Raves/AW Moments?: I've complained in the random threads about my sinus infection, so I'll complain here too. I hate taking all this medicine. I know it's safe and approved by my doctor, but I still feel bad about it. Poor LO has got to doped out of his mind. I know I am.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday song? I love O Holy Night by Michael Crawford
Any upcoming appointments?: Had my 28 week checkup today. Starting bi-weekly appointments now. I can't believe that time is already here! Also scheduled my c-section today (RCS) for Feb 26th (1 week prior to my March due date).
Updates/Rants/Raves/AW Moments?: Movements are so strong and I'm having so much fun watching my entire belly move when he kicks and punches
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday song? Christmas Canon
Upcoming Appts: 12/18, which includes the glucose screening (I really do not want to do it! Honestly, how can fasting then downing a ton of sugar be good for you or baby?)
Updates/rants/raves: Had a quick trip to L&D on Friday after I passed out in class. Thankfully all good, just got overheated in a computer lab with no air flow. Honestly, it was kind of nice to get a little preview of how our hospital's L&D and nurses are. Other than that, loving how much movement I can feel and how strong baby kicks now!
Favorite Holiday Song: I love the classics, but I also especially love the silly ones like "Marshmallow World" and "I want a hippopotamus for Christmas" And I adore First Call's a cappella Christmas albums
Any upcoming appointments?: I need to schedule my Glucose test before Christmas. Guess I better do that today. I hope they can fit me in.
Updates/Rants/Raves/AW Moments?: Baby is a tiny martial arts expert. I'm convinced of it. She'll come out with several black belts, and will already have invented her own new form. This is the only explanation for the ridiculous amount of movement going on. Also, ow, my poor ribs.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday song? Depends. If I am in a more serious mood, O Come O Come, Emmanuel wins, if I'm feeling silly, Christmas Is All Around Us by Billy Mack wins.
What fruit/veggie/inanimate object? Rutabaga. (Also I have pretty much no idea what a rutabaga is. Like a turnip? Has anyone ever actually eaten a rutabaga?)
Any upcoming appts? Just had my glucose test and my OB appt last week. Didn't hear anything back about my glucose test so I'm assuming I passed! My doctor only does the three hour test now and fasting then doing the test made me one miserable pregnant lady.
Updates/rants/raves/AW moments? I'm currently loving how excited our 3 yr old DS is getting about the baby. We didn't find out the sex but DS always says it's a girl baby. And when I asked him what we should name her he responded "Santa!" Guess we are a little excited for Christmas too.
GTKY- favorite holiday song? All I want for Christmas is You- as sung by the little girl from Love Actually. It makes me cry everytime.
What fruit/veggie/inanimate object?: Two happy rutabagas in there.
Any upcoming appointments?: Ultrasound on Friday! I can't wait to find out if baby A has flipped.
Updates/Rants/Raves/AW Moments?: Just got the results from my 3-hour glucose test, I passed :-) I'm totally exhausted since my MIL was visiting this past weekend and my 3 year old had a nasty stomach thing that had me up all night with her. And now my hubs has something crappy so I'm taking care of him and the thankfully healthy 3 year old while buying presents, wrapping presents, doing laundry, and packing for Christmas with the in-laws this weekend.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday song? I want a hippopotamus for Christmas! Probably 10 years ago now I was out shopping with my mom one day and we heard the song at least 8 times, it has been 'our Christmas song' ever since. The first time we hear it every year we call each other and sing it.
@ashleyrh661 Rutabaga is good! It's similar to parsnip or turnip, with a denser flesh like a sweet potato. I have a roasted fall veggie recipe I love that uses it.
Any upcoming appointments?: glucose test today at 1015 I have to fast for 4 hours, so I got up at 6am to eat breakfast. Otherwise I would never make it till 11am with no food!
Updates/Rants/Raves/AW Moments?: I've had a stuff nose and cough for a week now. Idk if it's a cold or just pregnancy congestion. I've been taking sudafed and robitussin as advised by my doctor, oh and using a humidifier. It helps the symptoms, but I don't feel like I am getting better I woke up last night randomly hacking my lungs out. I was hacking so much I couldn't stop, and I also threw up it continued for like 20 minutes. It felt like something was stuck in my lung. No bueno!
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday song? Hmm this is a tough one...I really like the nutcracker
@lisap0924 good luck with your glucose screening! Hope you feel better soon. Maybe try gargling hot salt water to clean out and disinfect your throat? That usually helps me get over cough/throat issues.
