GTKY: What are you most worried about regarding labor? What are you most excited about (other than the baby!)? Having a huge baby and pushing her out. I am excited to have her in my arms and dressing her up in pretty outfits
Size of baby (fruit/veggie/etc)? Baby is the size of a small clawed otter.
What is next? (Appointments, milestones)? 32 week appt. on Tuesday the 28th. Dentist tomorrow (booooo), Birthday Friday (Yeah!!!)!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? I don't think baby has flipped to the head down position as I still feel all kicks down really low. That makes me nervous as all of my other kids flipped before this.
Questions?
GTKY: What are you most worried about regarding labor? What are you most excited about (other than the baby!)? I am most worried I won't make it for my epidural and I do not have a high pain tolerance! I am super excited to share this experience with dh again. It is such a strong emotion when you see your baby for the first time together.
Size of baby (fruit/veggie/etc)? a butternut squash or a Quokka
What is next? (Appointments, milestones)? Next appointment is on July 1 with a basic ultrasound to verify that she has in fact flipped from breech (yay!).
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Foot still hurts and causing me to limp, etc. etc. rinse and repeat. Midwife thinks it's tarsal tunnel syndrome, similar to the carpal tunnel syndrome in my hands. Trying some natural remedies to see if it helps at all.
GTKY: What are you most worried about regarding labor? What are you most excited about (other than the baby!)? I'm most worried about a serious birth injury that will have long term complications (incontinence, pain, etc.). I'm most excited to get our little family set up at home - we've spent so much time prepping, now I'm just ready for her to be here!
Size of baby (fruit/veggie/etc)? Squash
What is next? (Appointments, milestones)? I have my next appointment on Monday
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Just pressure, this baby is hanging out low. But I already put that in the WTF post. My sister finally mailed my sprinkle invitations so that's a plus.
Questions?
GTKY: What are you most worried about regarding labor? What are you most excited about (other than the baby!)? I'm most worried about how a RCS will go compared to the "emergency" CS last time. I'm most excited about NOT BEING PREGNANT ANYMORE. I really enjoyed being pregnant with DD but I am so over it at this point. Not that I don't appreciate every day he's on the inside because it's best for right now.
Size of baby (fruit/veggie/etc)? Butternut Squash
What is next? (Appointments, milestones)? Appointment on Tuesday. Officially done with any traveling for the rest of the pregnancy. Oh! And our childbirth class is this weekend.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Just having a hard time sleeping lately. My hips have been killing me at night so I feel like I am constantly switching sides.
Questions?
GTKY: What are you most worried about regarding labor? What are you most excited about (other than the baby!)? I'm a FTM and just worried in general about labor. I'm hoping my class this weekend helps. I just really don't know what to expect and I'm a little bit of a control freak, so it puts me on edge. I am also most excited about not being pregnant any longer and being able to go back to horseback riding.
Size of baby (fruit/veggie/etc)? butternut squash
What is next? (Appointments, milestones)? Next appointment is July 8th, then it's every week after that.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? Pretty sure I got my weekly rant out on my post last night
Questions?
GTKY: What are you most worried about regarding labor? What are you most excited about (other than the baby!)? This is probably such a generic answer, but the pain is my biggest worry. I'd really like to try to have a natural birth without medication, but am terrified at the first real contraction I'll ask for an epidural. I'm most looking forward to hospital ice
Size of baby? Butternut squash
Whats next? My 36 week appt is July 1. They'll be doing a quick scan to make sure he's head down and see how big he is. I'll also have an internal exam, to check for dilation and strep b. I'm excited to see where we will be at by then!
Rants? I can't sleep. At all. At this point, I think I'll get more sleep after the baby comes. I've also been having lots of pressure and crorch pains from LO being prepared to make his entrance. The last week has been worse since I think he dropped. But the end is near!
GTKY? I'm nervous about not getting to the hospital in time for an epidural, or possibly even his birth! But I'm looking forward to getting my body back to myself. I know I'll mis having him in there and feeling him move, but my body is just done with pregnancy now. It's been easy until now, now I'm just uncomfortable and whiney lol
Size of baby (fruit/veggie/etc)? squash
What is next? (Appointments, milestones)? My next appointment is next Wednesday.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms? At my appointment last week, baby was breech. I think he might have flipped though because I was feeling hiccups down low the other day. Here's hoping!
Questions?
GTKY: What are you most worried about regarding labor? What are you most excited about (other than the baby!)? Most worried about the epidural not working (it was fine last time and the BEST THING EVER) and tearing badly again (last time I had 3rd degree tears + 21 stitches). Most excited about seeing DS be a big brother and watching him interact with baby.
