What is the size of the baby? Lettuce or a bunch of bananas
How many weeks? 27 weeks
Rant/Raves/Symptoms: Still just a sore lower back. I guess that isn't going away. Other than that, just having to watch my portions because I eat too much and then feel miserable.
I think we've decided we are going to tell people baby girl's name. I'm going to tell family when I get home in two weeks.
I read on one of the bmbs that a family member named their child the same name they were planning to use. They didn't do it on purpose as the person hadn't shared their name with anyone. It just has me irrationally worried that I need to get her name out there. It that totally paranoid? Questions?
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans? We are moving next Saturday so I spent today beginning to pack. Memorial day isn't celebrated here so it's a regular work week for me. Only two more weeks and I'm done for good!
I feel pretty good but I am starting to get tired again. Also I go pee a lot! More hungry. Questions?
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans?
Today we have our 3D/4D ultrasound and I am very excited and nervous lol. Can't wait to see our little squish. Also plan to visit my father this weekend and we are having picnic this Monday with friends. Here are my boys honoring those who have served us and lost their lives for our country.
Rant/Raves/Symptoms: Came down with a bad cold so I've been sick all week, and baby boy HATES all the coughinf. He goes wild and kicks the crap out of me until I stop. So it's been a rough week, but I'm so excited to only have 10 weeks left!!! Questions? Nope
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans? It's my dad's birthday, so having him and his wife over, and my sister and her family. And my sister has her scheduled c section on Tuesday!!! So excited to meet another beautiful little niece who will be so close in age to our little boy And since her due date is here, it makes me that much more aware that our due date is creeping up!
Rant/Raves/Symptoms : Had a 4D ultrasound but baby was too low so we have to go back next weekend, we got to see his face for a few minutes though and I'm in love. I've been having a lot of pressure and extremely low back pain and it's been super uncomfortable but on the plus side I no longer feel so uncomfortably bloated after a meal because there's more room up top.
Questions? No.
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans? Just spending quality time with hubby and enjoying the beautiful weather!
What is the size of the baby? a bunch of asparagus, a jar of Nutella, or an American football
How many weeks? 31
Rant/Raves/Symptoms : so much more variety in movement! Lots of rolls, and you can see it from outside. Growth ultrasound coming up if I can get it scheduled and signed up for birth class and childcare classes. Still need to schedule infant CPR. 9 weeks! It is getting real. Questions?
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans? I am still ridiculously ill, so my only plan is to sleep, try to produce less mucus, hope the antibiotics kick in and try to prep my last two lectures for the last week of the quarter.
What is the size of the baby? acorn squash How many weeks? 29 Rant/Raves/Symptoms : I really wish baby would stay head down so I could stop getting kicked right in the vagina. It makes me want to jump out of my skin. Questions?
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans? unfortunately work.
What is the size of the baby? Eggplant or milkshake. Mmmm milkshakes.
How many weeks? 28! Hello third trimester!
Rant/Raves/Symptoms : My rant for the week is the creepy waitress (who was not our waitress) who kept badgering me about the sex of the baby. She asked when we walked in and I dumbly said we knew but we were keeping it a surprise. Then she asked me again on my way to the bathroom and on the way out. She even said, you should bring the baby in after you have them so I will know if my guess is right or not. Uhhhh lady I don't know you. I felt like she was going to run off with my kid if I brought them in. So now when people I don't know ask publicly, I just say we have no idea. Questions? None.
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans? We are having friends and my parents over for a bbq this afternoon. Meat is currently marinating and I can't wait to eat all the kabobs I'm going to put together!

Expecting baby #1 August 2016
Already have three furbabies- Blake, Sydney, and Chester
Rant/Raves/Symptoms : My friend mentioned throwing me a sprinkle back in March. We haven't talked about it since. I only have one weekend day free between now and baby and I'm wondering if I should broach the subject or let it go. I would like to see my friends and get a few things (even if there just hand me downs). My DD is 5 and I don't have a lot for new DS.
The swelling sucks as does the increased peeing (which didn't seem possible).
I'm looking forward to baby's growth scan on Tuesday and my doc appt. Questions? None for now.
GTKY: Any exciting Memorial weekend plans? I work every weekend and super long hours too. It was hot and I drank a ton of water but my cankles are still swollen. I feel better after I had a bath.
*edited because I hit post reply before I was finished.
@Duffgurl thank you! I was just looking for an update on your ultrasound... How did it go?!
Thanks for thinking of me. I didn't want to be a snowflake lol. We are having a little girl and we are over the moon about it she was very shy on showing her face...so we go back on Tuesday for a redo. It was amazing to see what is called a hamburger lol. I thought it was more of half a hamburger lol.
