    How far along? 30 weeks! Wow! 

    What size is baby? Cantaloupe, Platypus, Motorcycle helmet 

    How are you feeling? Overall pretty good. Baby B must have moved down really low because I feel a lot of pressure/kicks on my cervix and bladder. I feel like I have to pee all the time but I don't always have to... 

    Upcoming appointments? Not until next week. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions: Rant: Nanny backed out. See Monday Bitchfest. 
    Rave: Our first baby shower was so fun and we finally got stuff set up in the nursery! I finally feel like it's coming along!! 

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? Motherhood v-neck tees FTW.

    How far along? 28 weeks! I'll really call this week - 3rd trimester!!! 

    What size is baby? Eggplant or coconut 

    How are you feeling? Pretty good for the most part. I can't complain too much about this pregnancy. Just tired from insomnia and still the horrid heartburn. Last week I had a few days where I was nauseous and bad headaches but it didn't last long. 

    Upcoming appointments? Not till my glucose test next Tuesday

    Rants/Raves/Questions: Our home is almost completely remodeled. Nursery and office are complete. We are finishing up painting our redone basement and just waiting for the carpet to come in for installation! Very excited to have the extra 500 sq ft of space. No rants at the moment. 

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? Any of my maternity jeans. They are just so comfy that I may never go back to normal jeans again LOL.

    How far along? 30 weeks! Which means technically tomorrow I'll be in single digits of weeks remaining 

    What is size of baby?     A zucchini (not sure how that compares) or a small cabbage.

    How are you feeling?     Overall I'm feeling pretty good.  I'm soooo done working though, but I have another 2 weeks to go.  I find when I'm working that's when I have a hard time sleeping, I start to swell and I feel overall crappy.  I had a 4 day weekend and funny enough I was bored.  I will take being bored though over working.

    Upcoming appointments?     I have a sizing ultrasound on Wednesday that my mom is coming to.  I'm super excited about that.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?     The past 2 mornings I've woken up with a stiff neck, so I'm sleeping weird.  I've tried reducing my pillows but that's not helping - it might be time to dig out one of my other pillows.

    GTKY - What's your favourite maternity clothing item and why?      Definitely my Motherhood jean shorts! Prepregnancy I only wore track pant type shorts, they were long and comfortable, but only 1 pair semi fits me at this stage (semi because they will slip below my belly).  These jean shorts are so comfortable and I feel like I look really good in them, I wish I can wear them all the time.  The only downside is that the belly band works so well, that in the blistering heat I feel like I'm in a body suit.

    @bnsmith85 I hope everything goes ok for your pup!

    How far along? 31 weeks

    What size is baby?  small clawed otter

    How are you feeling?  pretty good at the moment.  I've given in to taking zofran more often.  I'm so over still vomiting.

    Upcoming appointments? OB Tuesday and MFM Thursday.  

    Rants/Raves/Questions:  My shower was Saturday and It was wonderful.  The house was packed and we got so much stuff.  My favorite gift was a drawing my sister did of the hundred acre wood.  Now a question I have is how many 0-3 outfits do I need?  I counted 50ish outfits and still have some hand me down not included in that count.  I was thinking about exchanging some for 3-6 outfits.  

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why?  The khaki pants I have on from motherhood.  They are just so comfy!

    How far along? 30 weeks

    What size is baby? Zucchini 

    How are you feeling? Pain/pressure in vag is ridiculous sometimes!!

    Upcoming appointments? So this is really bad of me but I cancelled an obgyn visit last week (it was the day after a MFM appt so I was like eh they just checked on everything and I wasn't in the mood) and I never rescheduled and they haven't called to reschedule... 

    Rants/Raves/Questions: ugh I wish I could sleep!! During the day, if I get a chance to nap, it's like the greatest thing and I fall asleep instantly. But bedtime?? I toss and turn because everything hurts. 

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? Maxi skirts and Oldnavy maternity tank tops. I don't think I've worn anything else all summer.

    What size is baby? Acorn Squash

    How are you feeling? I have had good days and bad this week, I'm blaming it on being GD but I'm not sure I get the spins for hours a day.

My cousin works there she put ice on me I felt better quick but since then it happens daily. Also I don't asleep much

    Upcoming appointments? dietician tomorrow which apparently is a group thing? Anyone else? 

    Rants/Raves/Questions: happy this is almost done I hate this pregnancy loved my other 2 I love the baby inside hate the way I feel.

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? I don't care for maternity clothing I'd rather walk around in my pajamas and slippers at this point lol

    How far along? 30 WEEKS! Ah! 

    What size is baby?  Something that probably makes no sense.

    How are you feeling? Tired. Huge. Sleeping is getting to be a problem. The belly is HEAVY and it's not even that big.

    Upcoming appointments? not for 3 weeks.

    Rants/Raves/Questions: I can't focus long enough to come up with something right now...

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? I doubt they're maternity but I got this incredibly pair of super loose capri length yoga? pants that are my go to change into item when I get home from work.

    How far along? 27 weeks. I feel so far behind most of y'all!

    What size is baby? Lettuce.  ?

    How are you feeling? Can't complain. Had a massive migraine Saturday, so, that was fun.

    Upcoming appointments? This Thursday,  then I get to start going every 2 weeks. Not sure how I feel about that.

    Rants/Raves/Questions: I miss being able to take aspirin for my headaches. Especially the migraines. Been getting them since I was 8 years old and it's the only thing that actually takes the worst of it away.

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? My maternity shorts from Target and pretty much any lightweight shirt and no shoes. Texas summers are brutal.

    How far along? 29 weeks. I'm super excited for 30!

    What size is baby? Acorn squash

    How are you feeling? My upper back is really hurting me. It's tight and pulling, especially when I'm at my computer at work.

    Upcoming appointments? We just had one last week so we don't go again until 32. I think I go to every two weeks after that.

    Rants/Raves/Questions: We had a 3D scan this weekend and I'm a little disappointed because he had his cord in front of his face. I know it's not their fault but I wish they would let us have a do over. Also, we've just about finished  our thank you cards from the first shower. Just in time for our second shower on the 13th. I did not want both hanging over my head.

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? 3 quarter sleeve tops from motherhood. Also, Pinkblush was a lifesaver for a shower dress.

    @NicholeL16... Man, that is disappointing. They should definitely offer a do over if you can't get a good picture!

    How are you feeling? I am getting more BH and having trouble staying hydrated. I've got to up my Zoloft dose next week which is bittersweet.

    Upcoming appointments? 3 hour glucose tomorrow and regular appointment next week.

    Rants/Raves/Questions. I am just tired of feeling bad and exhausted. Everything is heading a month earlier symptom wise this time which is hard.

    GTKY: What's your favorite maternity clothing item and why? I got a few tighter shirts from Kohl's he other week and they are flattering. I'm plus sized so a lot.of.my stuff looks frumpy or simply isn't maternity so they downplay the midsection
