+++ 3rd Tri Check-In 1/21 +++ Need a new leader!!

mdiblasi10 · January 2015

*** Hi ladies! This is my last check-in before our baby girl arrives on Friday. Can someone please take over? Thank you!!

I know there has been a lot going on and we may have lost some members. I am pretty much in the dark and wasn't planning on leaving, so I'm posting this and hoping it continues for the rest of you. Best wishes to everyone! Also, the character limit has been greatly reduced so I have to split the post up.***

This is a weekly check-in for members in their 3rd trimester. You can join at 28 weeks and we will bid you an excited farewell when you greet your little ones! If you are new, please include your EDD and team.

How far along are you?

Upcoming appointments?

Any updates to share?

How are you feeling?

QOTW: What is your favorite hobby or favorite thing to do?

@WA1215 2/2 Girl - Sunday is just around the corner! How are you doing? I'm hoping she turned for you, but if not, don't worry. The c-section isn't horrible. I was terrified too and ended up with one. You will do great! Big hugs!

Hi! I'm still here. My work schedule makes me a terrible check-in leader but if no one else steps up, I will be happy to take over!

35w3d. Every single week that ticks off is another oh my goodness moment for me. No appointments this week, I go to weekly next week. My shower is also this weekend! I am so excited to see my friends and family. I am feeling mostly great still except I realized my standard way for rolling over (turn shoulders forcefully to the side, heave hips over) was causing me intense, but brief, ab pain, so I have had to turn over more carefully. That's the thing that really reminds me how big I've gotten.

QOTW: I love running. Even now, it's still something I look forward to doing most days. I wish I did cool crafts or something, but alas I do not have those gifts.

mdiblasi10 · January 2015

Thanks @runawaylaurel! Enjoy your shower this weekend

Two days to go and our baby girl will be here! My RCS is scheduled for noon on Friday at 39w. I can't believe it. It feels too soon. I had my pre-op phone call this morning and have to have some blood work done today. I've enjoyed running the check-in and will miss it here. Oh, the end of pregnancy... so bittersweet, sigh. Much love to you all.

QOTW: Horseback riding is my favorite thing to do. It's been so long since I've ridden, so I am hoping to make some time for it again soon.

Lady2010 · January 2015

mdiblasi10 - thank you for running the check-ins! You must be so excited - Friday is nearly here! Good luck!

AFM:

How far along are you? 39+4

Upcoming appointments? Next appointment is Monday - unless this little one comes sooner - when I will finally (hopefully) have a cervical check. OB decided not to do this week since my cervix is very sensitive and I bleed a lot - and there is no indication anything is happening. They are low intervention which I like but I am really curious to know if anything is happening!

Any updates to share? Nope - just waiting and wondering when this little person will arrive.

How are you feeling? Large, tired, anxious, impatient, etc - all the usual things I imagine anyone feels at this stage.

QOTW: What is your favorite hobby or favorite thing to do? I love photography - really enjoy taking photos - both travel and family. I am hoping I am still able to do so once our LO arrives and don't get too overwhelmed. I would like to take a photo each day for at least the 1st year with my regular camera - vs with my iphone. I think it would be a nice memory / photo book to look back on one day.

Good luck ladies - we are all in the home stretch!

Robeano · January 2015

It seems so unreal that I have less than a week left!! But I am so done being pregnant lol. I have my pre-op Monday than my section on Wednesday, than I'm having a baby!!!!!

@mdiblasi10 good luck tomorrow!! Can't wait to see pictures!

Ecarabeo217 · January 2015

Late to post...holy cow, I'm 36 weeks!!!! I'm not sure how this happened so fast! Had a bit of a melt down on Tuesday at my last MFM appointment. Sucks to know too much because then it's really easy to panic over things anyone else might not even take note of, but I talked myself off the ledge (as did DH, my MFM, and my OB) so I'm feeling better now. Have what feels like an enormous list of things to do still before LO arrives. Thankfully, next week is my last week at work and then I might get to catch up.

QOTW: don't have just one. Love crafting and photography. Have recently gotten into sewing which I enjoy. Trying to put it to use now making window dressing and crib skirts

WA1215 · January 2015

Welll, I had my weekly BPP ultrasound yesterday, and she's head down again - no longer breech!!!!!

I'm SO nervous about this really happening, my pg has gone by so fast, it still doesn't seem real. Good luck today @mdiblasi10‌ !!!!

weansworld09 · January 2015

Thank you for running the check-ins @mdiblasi10‌ and good luck!! Can't wait for the birth story

Good luck @Robeano‌ !

AFM, 36w3d and nothing new to report. Feeling huge and can feel myself slowing down.
I am excited to be getting so close! Hospital bags are mostly packed and my Amazon shipment came yesterday with some nipple butter and other post partum care items! Can't wait for the big arrival.

QOTW: I like to lounge with my two dogs, go to barre class, run and try new wines/beers with DH

hopeby2015 · January 2015

Congrats to everyone that had their babies! Hope it was a quick delivery and with a speedy recovery!

As previously mentioned, we had a sweet baby girl on 1-19.

Can't wait to see all of your birth announcements! Good luck ladies!

poohniki · January 2015

Hi ladies!

I am doing ok- had a bit of a scare during my shower when I went pale and my legs blew up really quickly. I had been trying too hard to help since we had some drama with a slacker family member of mine that flaked off- anyway. After sleeping in all weekend I am much better. I am currently seeing the OB weekly for scans and MFM this week for a growth scan. I am 32 weeks today and thinking I should make up that hospital bag and get the crib mattress ordered. Time is ticking away.

QOTW: I really enjoy making art on the computer- like signs or posters and that such.. I made a little cube for the nursery with 5 different designs.
