GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun?
Re: Tuesday Ticker Change 09.06.16
What size is baby? Savoy Cabbage
Upcoming appointments? Sept 16th
Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm feeling pretty rotund these days. Not happy about that. I was talking to one of my good friends this weekend and she said that my ass has definitely gotten bigger. Gee, thanks.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? More and more hip pain these days. Thankfully, it's only severe at night. I'm okay during the day, but I have to hobble to bed every night like I've just had a hip replacement.
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun? It was pretty good! College football is back and all is right with the world. I watched 4 games Saturday and even though my team lost, I still enjoyed it. Yesterday, we went to my parents' house for a cookout and time in the pool. That was an excuse to make buffalo chicken dip and banana pudding- two of my favorite things in the whole wide world. So yeah, good weekend, for sure.

What size is baby?
A papaya, allegedly.
Upcoming appointments?
I'm sitting in the exam room as I type waiting to get checked!
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Just. Waiting.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
I think I may be leaking amniotic fluid, so that will be checked shortly. No cravings or aversions to note.
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun?
We pretty much just fawned over DS all weekend, which was fun
What size is baby? A large bag of potato chips (that I want to eat lol)
Upcoming appointments? I go back next Friday, September 16 and every week after that!
Rants/Raves/Questions? I am currently very whiny. I have a lot of feelings and am stressed and everything bothers me lol
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I feel like I go from STARVING to uncomfortably stuffed way too fast and the cycle just repeats every 2-3 hours. It's annoying. I'm not usually much of a snacker, just a big meal eater, so it's cramping my style. But small meals more often is supposed to be better for you so maybe it'll create a good habit!
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun? I had a visit with a friend and her 2 year old and we danced to soul man from the Blues Brothers a lot and that was super cute. Other than that, tried to relax and do some things on our baby checklist!
What size is baby? A pineapple
Upcoming appointments? Reg check up this Saturday
Rants/Raves/Questions? Same as @AllyTheKid just waiting lol
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Mild swelling and Joint pain in my fingers every morning, going to ask my doctor about it at my appointment this weekend
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun? Nice and relaxing, yesterday i got to hang out with one of my friends whom i haven't seen all year. Did a little shopping, had lunch, and sat by the water and talked about everything thats happened this year. so much fun!

What size is baby?
Spahetti squash-that hasn't stopped moving since 5am.
Upcoming appointments?
Nothing until next Friday. OB consult then to decide when/how to get this baby out.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Raves-I still have a good amount of energy. I don't need to nap with my kids everyday and I'm loving my shiny thick preganncy hair.
rants- despite my best efforts to not gain more weight than I'm supposed to my feet are just killing me.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
last night I was craving ice cream, so I went after the kids went to bed and got some. Sadly it tasted like crap to me so I didn't eat it. H said it was good so I guess my body doesn't know what it wants.
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun?
It was extremely busy for us. We had a house full of people for my grandpas 80th birthday. Plus we had a major work bee around the house yesterday.
31!
What size is baby?
Asparagus which is so unappealing right now
Upcoming appointments?
If I get out of the hospital this week, my OB wants me to move my ultrasound with the MFM for this week instead of on the 20th.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Just trying to go with the flow. Met with NICU team today incase we end up having the baby early but didn't really seem to have that many questions. I think it will all come out when/if anything happens. But we have a good prognosis if baby is delivered early! So I am happy about that!
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
no cravings. Heart burn is back with a vengeance cause I've been at the hospital for a few days... Ironically my hips feel better while I am here.
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun?
Well this kid hates holidays and I've spend this holiday weekend in the hospital which is a bummer! DS and I had a good Friday though- I picked him up early and we hung in my girlfriends back yard all afternoon/ night and it felt like things were back to normal until I woke up on Satudday bleeding!

What size is baby?
Papaya
Upcoming appointments?
Today I get my group b strep test. Weekly appointments now!
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I'm with you @CopperBoom86 I feel enormous! I feel like I look ridiculous trying to get up or change positions. I'm also constantly ravenous and I'm hoping this weight gain slows, it's been coming on pretty quick lately.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
Like I said, craving all the food all the time lol. I've been feeling better lately overall, probably because it's been a little cooler, which is amazing. Can't wait for fall! I've been kind of irritable lately, and trying to have some self-compassion and not be frustrated with my fatigue.
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun?
We went to the pool two days in a row, it was so nice! We also went to see a movie. It was a pretty relaxing weekend and we tried to keep our to do list limited so we could enjoy the peace!
It's a boy!

Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? @scostel2 - I agree, I'm either starving or I'm WAY too full!!
GTKY: How was your Labor Day weekend? Do anything fun? It was great - Went to the trampoline park Thursday night (no, I didn't jump, but it was very tempting!), went to the "Burn the Point" parade (classic cars) on Friday, had a fun day of shopping/lunch w/ DS on Saturday, and Monday we celebrated my nephew's 2nd birthday.

Pineapple

Rants/Raves/Questions?
Rave! I still feel really good, all things considered.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
Continuing to rave... My feet don't disappear into cankle-land every night, and I have a somewhat steady stream of energy to get what needs done. My carpal tunnel is mild and my hands only really seem to go numb at night (although I sleep with braces).
No real cravings or aversions to speak of.
