A papaya, or two plates of beignets (yum!)

ice cream, ice cream and all the sweets!!!
GTKY: What is the weirdest symptom you've experienced this pregnancy
Hmmmmm, my hair has always been greasy. Like I have to wash my hair every day or every other day. With this pregnancy, washing twice a week has been the norm!
How many weeks? 35
What size is baby? Pineapple
Upcoming appointments? Starting weekly appointments on Monday
Rants/Raves/Questions? Rave- we finally picked a first name, we've had both of our showers and we have most of the essential items we will need for baby. Rant- I'm completely miserable and I still have 4 weeks to go. UGH.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? Heartburn has reached a whole new level of intensity. I'm not really looking forward to baby dropping, but I could use a little relief from heartburn. I've gotten so big that I'm just constantly uncomfortable (sitting, standing, laying down, doesn't matter.)
GTKY: What is the weirdest symptom you've experienced this pregnancy? Butthole kicks and punches, for sure. It must be a difference in this baby's position, because I never experienced that with DD.
What size is baby? Butternut Squash
Upcoming appointments? Appointment Tuesday with my OB. I haven't actually seen him in months - I've been shuffling around to the different docs in the practice.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I've had near constant Braxton Hicks some days. I didn't feel any at all during my first pregnancy, and it's taking a lot of getting used to. It doesn't help that this has been one of my busiest weeks of the year at work. I need some rest this weekend, but sadly DH is out of town tomorrow afternoon/tomorrow night with a friend. So, just me and the toddler.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? @annabenanna Totally with you on all the sweets. Typically, we just don't buy them at the grocery, but DS has been requesting Oreos and Teddy Grahams. And, well, he's just so cute I can't say no. So, I'm usually good for a half sleeve of Oreos per night...
GTKY: What is the weirdest symptom you've experienced this pregnancy? Nothing weird or out of the ordinary. YET...
36w0d - we are FULL TERM! Also, exactly 3 weeks until c-section. 3 is a really small number...
What size is baby?
Large. Very large. And pointy.
Upcoming appointments?
OB coming up on Wednesday, and scheduling my appointment with my post-partum midwife tomorrow!
I also made a hair appointment for next week - who knows when I'll have time for THAT again.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
The weather has FINALLY cooled off so I am only sweating a few times a day rather than constantly. I am still really upset about having to have a c-section, but I think talking with my OB and midwife next week will help.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
I am still sweating like a gatorade commercial. And I want ALL the sweets.
GTKY: What is the weirdest symptom you've experienced this pregnancy?
Sweating so much that water pours off of me, as well as the cervix and butthole kicks. I didn't believe those were a real thing pre-pregnancy...
DS#2 due 25 April 2019
How many weeks?
37 weeks!
What size is baby?
Upcoming appointments?
I had one today and am going every Friday. I didn't want them to check my cervix today but will ask for it to be checked again next week.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I wish NC would get the memo and cool down. It has been in the 90s all week. I think it is supposed to cool down starting next weekend though. Good news is that DH and I have actually made a lot of progress in the baby's room. It is painted and the crib, changing table, and glider are all set up. I've washed the bedding and made up the crib. This weekend is all about decorating and washing clothes and organizing.
Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
My main symptom is being tired all the time and just not sleeping well. No cravings or aversions. Just give me any food.

I don't think I've had any out of the ordinary?
