Re: Weekend Ticker Change
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Watermelon!
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Been feeling under the weather today, lots more Braxton hicks. Wouldn't mind if this means labor is close as I will be induced week 39 and would rather go into labor spontaneously.
Oh my poor hips and lower back are aching!
Questions?

I will miss feeling baby move, but I am looking forward to being able to stand and move better. I have had back and hip pain throughout.
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Butternut squash. I had an appt. yesterday and doc said she is about 5 lbs.
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: I've started to have more pressure down below and it's making me start to waddle. She's head down so I'm assuming this is here to stay. I've also been sleeping horribly the past couple of weeks and finally got a full night sleep last night by some miracle. Yay!
Questions? I have been feeling some burning after I pee lately but my doctor said I didn't have any infections. It could also just be from the added pressure? I'm thinking about taking AZO for uti. Everything I've read online says its a class B drug (like Tylenol) and it's fine to take. Have you guys taken it while pregnant before or have any other recommendations?

DH has been great throughout this whole pregnancy but has really stepped it up the last couple weeks. He can see it's starting to take a toll on me and has been extra supportive. I'm so ready to have my body back. I just want to feel like a normal person again. If I'm being honest, I don't know if I'll miss the kicking and feeling her move. While I love having reassurance she's okay, it's not my favorite thing.

What size(fruit or other) is baby?
Papaya
Rant/Rave/Symptoms:
I'm doing pretty well with the symptoms. I have all the normal things they say are common this point. A little swelling in my feet, heartburn, Braxton Hicks, but honestly they are all pretty mild and I'm not too sick of them just yet.
Questions?

I will miss feeling baby, and the closeness we have right now. I will also miss how low maintenance she is now. I just eat and sleep and she's taken care of. The thing I will least miss is just not being able to do all the fun, cool things I'm used to doing. (Riding coasters, slip and slide with the kids, hot tubs, raw fish) I'd like to say, "someone hold this baby, I'm gonna climb this tree like a 10 year old." Lol

What size(fruit or other) is baby?
Papaya
Rant/Rave/Symptoms:
I'm so excited we're so close! 3 weeks and a day until my c-section is scheduled. Eekk!
Questions?
GTKY: We are getting toward the end, what will you miss the most and least about being pregnant?
I'll miss having her all to myself. I don't have to pass her off to people so they can get a baby fix. I'll also miss DS being our only one! Poor kid, he doesn't know what's coming!
The thing I'll miss least is feeling like I can't do anything. I was telling DH I don't like not being able to do things. I've been feeling that more and more over the past few days and it's exhausting and driving me nuts!
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Papaya
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: ugh, so uncomfortable. I feel so swollen down there, and Braxton hicks are getting more uncomfortable and painful. This crazy heat isn't helping!
Questions?
GTKY: We are getting toward the end, what will you miss the most and least about being pregnant?
I will miss just being pregnant. It makes me feel special
I won't miss the discomfort and the limitations. I hate constantly being told what I can't do. And I won't miss not being able to drink
What size(fruit or other) is baby? 3 dozen Krispy Kreme donuts (fitting - we used blue icing filled Krispy Kremes to announce the gender)
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: I've been really lucky in the symptoms department: no swelling or hemorrhoids or extreme pain yet. Although the BH contractions have been waking me at night a lot. Today I have just felt really weak and exhausted. DH was so sweet to cook a big breakfast and take DD out of the house for a while so I can rest more. I feel like we are so close with baby's room, but still have a bit to do, yet I'm losing steam quickly!
Questions? I've noticed that my urge to urinate seems to have turned into a BH contraction - is that happening to anyone else? It's like I no longer feel the normal full bladder feeling but instead a typical BH which is relieved by peeing... Weird!
GTKY: We are getting toward the end, what will you miss the most and least about being pregnant? I have a lot of self confidence as a pregnant mom that I'm not sure I usually have when not pregnant. I honestly feel much more attractive and beautiful when pregnant, but I know I won't feel it as much (or at all!) with the leaky boobs and saggy tummy, haha. However holding this lil guy in my arms will make it all worth it!
And good God, I cannot wait for drinks!!
What size(fruit or other) is baby? A bunch of carrots
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Having increased pressure with a lot of swelling down below. My BH have gotten stronger and definitely more painful. My boobs are back to being tender again as well...
Questions?
GTKY: We are getting toward the end, what will you miss the most and least about being pregnant? I'll miss being able to slack on my diet. I normally eat pretty healthy and I've definitely added more sweets since being pregnant. I like the way I look pregnant but I will not miss how I feel. Being on modified bedrest is also making me a little crazy, I miss being able to exercise. And finally I'm looking forward to drink some wine again!
What size(fruit or other) is baby? Romaine lettuce
Rant/Rave/Symptoms: Lost at least part of my mucus plug yesterday, and my groin muscles feel like they're both pulled- it's so uncomfortable! I also went from 20% effaced to 50% in two days, so I'm hoping things are moving along for baby boy to show up on his own before my 39th week when my dr said they'd induce or do a c section depending on his size.

GTKY: We are getting toward the end, what will you miss the most and least about being pregnant? I'm going to miss always having baby boy with me since I know it will be hard to leave him with others and wonder how he's doing. But I won't miss the huge stretches he likes to do that can be quite painful! I'm just ready to hold this little guy already
