Re: ~~~ Saturday Ticker Change ~~~

  • Week/Fruit: 33/no idea

    How are you feeling? Baby is head down and now I'm soooo uncomfortable! I was feeling great, but now I'm achy and tired. I knew it couldn't last for much longer.

    Appointments/updates?: OB this week, and an ultrasound. Baby is head down, heart rate, etc looks great. Baby is measuring a week ahead which is great since I'm being given extra scans in case of iugr. The tech said she looked about 4.5lbs. I can't wait to see her!

    Bought/received?: well my SIL sent us a box of garbage (see rant on j15page).

    Rants/Raves: see SIL rant/garbage box.

    Gtky: my favorite part is making elaborate, tasty meals for friends and family. We have friends in town this weekend so we're making a roast duck with the trimmings for dinner. Yum!

    Good morning ladies!! Happy Saturday :) Week/Fruit: 35/35 today!!! Not sure on the fruit. How are you feeling? Really good actually. A few uncomfortable-I'm-ready-to-be-done moments like not being able to get into a comfy position on the couch, heartburn and some hemerroids but not like I thought with my 3rd pregnancy. Appointments/Updates? Nope, I go this week and should hopefully schedule my csection. My principal finally found a long-term sub for me and she is wonderful so I'm relieved about that. Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently? I've been trying to pick up some diapers here & there. Lots of boxes arriving here daily, I've done almost all of my holiday shopping online and usually I'll throw in some baby clothes. Third baby boy with mismatching seasons, so we needed a few more long sleeved onesies & cozy sleepers. Rants/Raves: Rave- chewing half-melted ice is fabulous. Rant-my new iron pills are not however. Neither are the odd looks I get from people while I chew my ice. GTKY: What is your favorite Christmas/holiday tradition ?? Are there any new ones you plan on starting with this LO? Can't think of any traditions. I'm going to start the 12 days of Christmas book countdown with my two boys. I know it's supposed to be 25 days, but dang that's a lot of Christmas books. We are huge readers and have tons of books already. I bought a multi-pack of holiday books from my son's preschool that had maybe 8, then supplemented with a few more. I actually need to go and wrap them right one bc if my calculations are correct, we should start opening them tonight to get through to Christmas Eve.

    edit-sorry for the wall of text. Editing on my iPad is not working.

    Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently? Bassinet, boppy, thermometer, and some other stuff left on the registry.

    GTKY: What is your favorite Christmas/holiday tradition ?? Are there any new ones you plan on starting with this LO? PJs on Christmas Eve and when he can read/doesn't believe in Santa anymore I want to hide his presents and send him on a scavenger hunt. My
    Mom used to do that for us and it was so much fun.

    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker Anniversary
  • Week 35/Pineapple(I think)

    I'm over ppl at work asking if I'm tired cause I look tired. Hell yes I'm tired. I work 12hr shirfts at the hospital. Who wouldn't be tired at 35wks working that long.

    Appt. on 12/22. I'll be having the works. Step B. Growth scan, heart monitor. Probably will be a 2hr appointment.

    Haven't bought anything this week.

    Rave-none.
    Rant- My patients and/or their family members will ask me about my pregnancy. I find it annoying and weird.

    I started a ginger bread making party with my godson and niece during Christmas week last yr. We are doing it Christmas eve this year. We keep it going when LO comes.

    Week/Fruit: 34 weeks / Butternut squash How are you feeling? Been feeling pretty crappy the last couple of days. Been having issues with my tummy not feeling too great, not contractions more like sick to my stomach. Ick! Appointments/Updates? Next appointment in this coming Thursday - looking forward to hearing heartbeat and kind of looking forward to when we go to to the weekly appointments which won't happen until after Christmas. Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently? Nope - my work is having a shower for me on Monday though - if I can feel good and make it to the shower Rants/Raves: Rant: I hate feeling sick to my stomach - feel so guilty about not being able to do all the things I want to accomplish. I feel really bad for DH right now because I'm just worthless - fortunately had the ability to do the laundry at least today despite feeling pretty cruddy. Rave: I love my DH. He has been awesome and just been such a supportive man during this whole pregnancy. GTKY: What is your favorite Christmas/holiday tradition ?? Are there any new ones you plan on starting with this LO? I love watching White Christmas - used to watch every year with my mom. Not sure if I can watch with her this year since she'll just be visiting briefly but DH will be watching it with me. I can't make it through it without crying. New traditions for LO, no idea! I feel like she'll hopefully be here after this year's holidays so I have a full year to com up with ideas.
  • Week/Fruit: 
    37 weeks, Wintermelon
    How are you feeling?
    Working is starting to make me really tired. I hate my 12 hour shifts. Also, started having this off/on cramping feeling (not like contractions though, feels more like period cramps) and it's really annoying.
    Appointments/Updates? 
    I have an appointment Tuesday afternoon. Then it's weekly from here on out.
    Have you bought/received anything for the baby recently? 
    I got the coolest stroller bag from 31 today. It's a big mesh pouch with little pockets at the top and our last name embroidered on it. It's got clip loops on each side to hang from the handlebar.
    Rants/Raves: 
    When my husband wants to help and then half-ass helps so I end up having to do it all myself anyways and then he gets really grumpy. Hence why I was standing on a chair on my porch hanging christmas lights by myself last night.

    We were really "un-christmas-y" growing up. I don't have any traditions that I can think of at all. I do like the idea of everyone getting one present on Christmas Eve to open. I'll have to keep brainstorming some more. haha
