One thing you are looking foward to: my next US at the end of the month, hoping for a 3D one to see what DD looks like Also buying the crib and glider this weekend!
Rants/Rave/symptoms: my back aches are getting more frequent and groin pain is real! I'm having a hard time sleeping at night too
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans? Hanging out with my niece and in laws. Sent my mom all her gifts for Mother's Day and her bday this week.
Expecting baby #1 August 2016
Already have three furbabies- Blake, Sydney, and Chester
One thing you are looking foward to: I see my OB on Tuesday. Can't wait to hear the HB. Also on the 28th we have our 3D 4D and to find out the sex of our little one
Rants/Rave/Symtoms:
Just been a little tired and dealing with this numbness in my hands.
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans?
I don't know if the boys have anything plan...we shall see
One thing you are looking foward to: Have my regular appt on Monday, but nothing too exciting there... And I'm kind of dreading getting weighed
Rants/Rave/Symtoms: I have been getting so sore in my whole lower body by the end of the day. I don't even feel like I've been doing that much, but my body is just not resilient right now!
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans? We have DS's swim lesson in the morning and then we'll go out to breakfast, which I love doing. We're going to see my mom, just for an hour or so, and then get something yummy for dinner. I think I'll try to get a manicure at some point too.
One thing you are looking foward to: next appointment is still pretty far off, near the end of May.
Rants/Rave/Symtoms: I am, frankly, feeling a bit overwhelmed. I got some mosquito bites while gardening that are causing me to worry, I am trying to adjust to the low carb diet and testing for GD, my spouse is sick, our kitchen has to be remodeled as the cabinets are literally falling apart (and off the wall), our new upstairs neighbor is loud and throws cigarettes on our patio, and I have been very tired. I am overwhelmed with worry about the pregnancy, even though my glucose numbers are good. It is just feeling like a lot to deal with.
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans? My husband is ill, so our plans have pretty much been cancelled. We were going to head to Tucson to see my Mother and some friends. If he us feeling better we may go visit the flower fields (rununcula fields). I lost my previous pregnancy on Mother's Day so it may be a difficult day, I was hoping for a distraction from the memory.
One thing you are looking foward to: notnecessarily looking forward to my glucose test but it means I'm one step closer in this process! I am also moving in 3 weeks so I'm ready to get that over with and be in a new place.
Rants/Rave/Symptoms: RLP during the night and my lower back/hips ache.
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans? Calling my mom, that's about it. I feel bad because I asked her if my sister had mentioned any plans and she said no. So I'm hoping my dad and her at least take her to lunch. Also my sister has to give her my present I bought her. It's a little necklace with two pink feet imprinted with a special message.
I'm a FTM so I don't expect DH to do anything. Maybe flowers? Not getting my hopes up though. (Yes I am)
@liljabee hugs to you! I'm sure this is an incredibly challenging day. Maybe you can do something for yourself, even if your DH isn't feeling well? I hope you get to go to the ranuncula fields, they're one of my favorite flowers, I'm sure it would be incredibly beautiful and peaceful!

I second hugs to you today. I hope your DH feels better! I also love ranunculus! It's so pretty!

One thing you are looking foward to: Next week we are going to a 3rd party ultrasound place to get some extra photos and 3D photos of baby. I can't wait to have some extra ones to put in her baby book.
Rants/Rave/Symtoms: I overdid it yesterday and now I feel like my public bone is pulling apart and I ran into a pole down there. Also this heartburn is killing me at night. I may give in and call my OB on Monday for a prescription.
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans? DH is currently making me breakfast in bed (bacon and pancakes). I came home Friday night from my late shift and he had a first Mother's Day card for me. He is definitely the thoughtful one out of the two of us.

How many weeks: 26 Size of the baby: Kale.... These fruit/vegetable measurements cannot be accurate at this point. I like to think she's about 2 pounds now. One thing you are looking foward to: My shower next month so I can finally tell everyone it's a girl! I didn't want to have a separate "gender reveal" so I planned on doing it at my shower, but now I kind of regret not just telling! It's so hard when everyone asks. Rants/Rave/Symtoms: I'm out of town but when I get back i have to go do my glucose test. I'm so afraid i will fail because of the absurd amount of sugar i consume. GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans? We are currently camping with my in-laws so today we are planning to visit a few caves. Besides that, nothing special.
One thing you are looking foward to: getting DS's nursery complete and quitting my job!
Rants/Rave/Symptoms: He likes to hangout in my rib cage which is very uncomfortable as well as bending forward to pick up things.
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day? My parents came down for the weekend so it was nice to spend time with them and we took my mom out for brunch. DH got me the diaper bag I wanted and filled it with new pjs, a robe and the mother bracelet from Alex and Ani.
One thing you are looking foward to: I really want to get the nursery together soon. We are visiting the in laws next weekend to pick up some hand-me-down stuff and then I think we'll have most of what we need!
Rants/Rave/Symtoms: The feet swelling has begun. It must be a combo of a busy weekend (we flew to visit my family for our shower and Mother's Day) and the warm weather.
GTKY Question: any special Mother's Day plans? Had my baby shower yesterday, and a nice brunch with my Mom and Nana this morning. It was awesome.
