    What size?
    He was 5lbs 4oz as of Monday. Not sure what random veggie he is this week. 

    Upcoming appointments?
    Tuesday for GBS swab and check up. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    I am super excited to have my primary care back in the hands of my midwife! That said, I am finding the thought of her doing checks and swabs a little uncomfortable as she is also one of my closest friends. Guess we are embarking on a whole new level of friendship! 

    Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I'm craving sexy time oddly enough, even though I am feeling all sorts of icky and blob-like. And ice cream. Always ice cream.

    GTKY: As a kid, what was your favorite piece of clothing/outfit? Oversized sweaters and colourful boots. I lived in my blue Dr Martins. Not much has changed...

    How many weeks? 39 weeks, y'all. So weird!

    What size? 
    Pumpkin, french grain sack, mini skateboard, cat. I'm guessing about 7.5lbs or so... Hopefully not bigger!

    Upcoming appointments? 
    NST soon and 40w appointment next week.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? 
    Yay, pre e. Ugh. That happened this week. OB says I'm developing pre e so now on modified bedrest/light activity until baby comes or until they decide to induce. I've posted about this in other threads but I really hope she comes on her own soon so I can avoid the induction. I feel like having an induction will throw my birth plan out the window but I'll do whatever needs to be done for baby, I just want her to be okay, obviously. I've been having contractions every hour (3-12 per hour!) for six days. Did some spinning babies last night and immediately they got painful and at every 4-5 minutes but were again spread apart by the time I woke up. Boooo.

    Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Headaches (due to high bp), so tired, so many BH and painful contractions, hip and lower back pain from baby dropping more and more, nausea here and there and so.much.gas.

    GTKY: 
    Depends on my age I guess. When I was little, I loved wearing a knitted dress that used to be my mom's  (and will probably be passed down to this LO). It was so pretty so I can't wait until this baby girl is old enough to wear it.

  • How many weeks? 38

    What size?
    Winter melon - what is that even?

    Upcoming appointments?
    Had one today, US and midwife next week

    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    The good is that I'm GBS negative. But oh man I had a rough day. My midwife really scared me by talking at my appointment today about how my baby's head is measuring disproportionately small and how there's a possibility it could be something worrisome. I cried in the parking lot. Then at home.The OB from the practice that does my ultrasounds called hours later to talk about it and tried to reassure me that it's most likely nothing but said they could do another ultrasound and have the doctor there instead of just the technician to talk me through what they see. So yeah... hopefully baby is fine and just has a small head and does not end up having microcephaly.

    Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Emotional.

    GTKY: As a kid, what was your favorite piece of clothing/outfit?
    I loved overalls as a kid, A LOT. I wore them all the time and refused to wear normal jeans until 5th grade.

  • @pdxmamatobe I'm so sorry, that sounds way too scary and stressful. Did they say if the head is disproportionate with the abdomen or with gestational age? GD can cause the abdomen to grow a little larger than baby's head, without any issues at all. I'll be thinking of you and hopefully baby's just a little chubby!

  • @pdxmamatobe I'm so sorry you received such scary news. Please try not to worry as ultrasounds are not always the most accurate tool (especially this late in the game when baby is smooshed). I will be thinking and praying for you mama xoxo.
  • @pdxmamatobe I'm sorry you got that news today, that is scary and something none of us want to hear! Thinking of you and hoping everything is alright, try to take care of yourself in the meantime! 
  • Thanks ladies! @AlwaysAuntNeverMom She's overall measuring in the 27th percentile. They said her head is disproportionate to her abdomen. At 37 weeks her head was measuring 33.5 weeks and abdomen 37.5 weeks. It's not far enough off to be considered microcephaly right not but it's something they would check for after birth because it's a possibility. I'm hoping I'll get more answers Wednesday at the next ultrasound and that maybe the measurements will have changed for the better. He definitely talked about how those measurements aren't as accurate right now.

  • @pdxmamatobe I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that the measurements look better on Wednesday! Hopefully it was just a matter of positioning or inaccuracy. Will be thinking of you!
