I know this kind of died because we lost some regulars but I thought I'd revive it this week and see if those of us that are still hanging in there wanted to check in?
How far along are you? EDD?
How are you feeling?
R/R/Other:
Questions:
GTKY - what are you most looking forward to next? Next appointment, next milestone, the baby actually coming?
Re: TTGP Check In 8/20
How are you feeling? pretty good all things considered, I think I might finally be getting over the cold that has driven me nuts for weeks now.
R/R/Other: Hmmm.
Questions: Has anyone else's doctor not asked for urine at every appointment? Mine hasn't for the last two and I never think to ask about it while I'm there. It's always when I get home and really have to pee that I'm like "wait....." I should just call and ask the receptionist but she'd transfer me to a nurse and I'd be on hold and ugh, whatever it doesn't burn to pee, I'll ask next time. STM laziness? Idk.
GTKY - what are you most looking forward to next? Next appointment, next milestone, the baby actually coming? AS in a week and half! I feel like I can get into full prep mode as soon as I know the sex (and that the baby is healthy of course)
How far along are you? EDD? I'm 21 weeks today. Due date is January 4th
How are you feeling? Great actually. I've been lucky to skip out on any morning sickness, fatigue or really anything. I haven't put on any weight which is weird because i feel like i have and clothes are tight.
R/R/Other: I'm so happy to have made the decision to go part time at work when i get back from maternity leave. My husband gets paid paternity leave, i get nothing other than FMLA. Don't even get me started on maternity leave in this country.
Questions: no questions. Just looking forward to seeing how everyone else is doing.
GTKY - what are you most looking forward to next? Next appointment, next milestone, the baby actually coming? well i had my anatomy scan already which went well. Found out we are having a boy!!! My next appointment is sept 16 i think. I don't think much is going to occur at that one. I'm feeling him move and kick like crazy. I have a posterior placenta so my doctor said I'll feel them sooner and might be stronger. He is a strong little guy and i feel like getting stronger everyday. It's an amazing feeling but sometimes it's not...like when I'm trying to sleep and he is bouncing around on my bladder (feels like that anyway).
Also i felt the same as you...not being able to fully prepare until my anatomy scan. It went over well. We had a call back for a spot they saw on his heart and i needed further testing which turned out to be nothing (long story). But best of luck to you! I totally get it..
The fear/excitement/anxiety...all of it in one!
How far along are you? EDD? 21 weeks, January 1st.
How are you feeling? I'm feeling pretty good. I just have a tiny bit of RLP here and there, a little bit of heart burn that comes when it wants, and then crazy amounts of baby kicks and punches. His kicks are starting to get a little uncomfortable at times. Also, have totally gained weight. Up 8 pounds. I have never been more than 130 pounds in my life, so this feels kind of... weird.
R/R/Other: Everything is kind of piecing along as it should for baby's arrival. My company did layoffs this week and I was unaffected by it (phew). We bought a house and finally closed on it (phew). We got engaged so baby won't be a bastard (phew). We bought a bunch of clothes for him so he won't be naked in a blizzard (phew).
Questions: None.
GTKY - what are you most looking forward to next? Next appointment, next milestone, the baby actually coming? Finishing his nursery. I am enjoying pregnancy but from here on out, I know it's just growth at this point--I'm not sure what "milestone" is really next aside from the part where he's born haha. Maybe a little excited about going back to the elective ultrasound place to see his chubby little face around 30 weeks on 3D
@katesmama0706 They didn't ask for my urine at my last appointment. I didn't really think much of it, mostly because I'm not sure what exactly they're checking every time they take urine unless it's just for infection haha.
How are you feeling? Good! Just can't wait to feel the baby kick!! I am pretty sure I felt it yesterday for the first time.
R/R/Other: Went maternity clothes shopping tonight and it was just me and my H in the store and the sales lady would not leave me alone. She was helpful and everything, but I really wasn't in the shopping mood yet some how we spend 1.5 hrs there. She had me try on I swear 8 bras - ick. and kept bringing me random stuff that didn't look good. She was trying so hard but I still only left with the shirt I went to exchange and a pair of leggings. I felt bad because she tried so hard... but now I'm just tired.
Questions: None right now.
GTKY - what are you most looking forward to next? Next appointment, next milestone, the baby actually coming. Getting our bedroom finished so we can move out of the nursery and start planning that!! We find out the sex of the baby on September 2nd!! Super excited to see the little bug!!
Me: 31 | Husband: 32
