How many weeks? 32 weeks

What size is baby? A hard hat?

Upcoming appointments? Just your typical check up on Monday. I'm off work for Columbus day so I didn't have to take sick leave! Something I just thought about was that I only have two more appts after Monday's until my appts are every week. Crazy!

Rants/Raves/Questions?

Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? My nausea is back unless I am eating. Trying to make good food choices so I don't cry to hard at my appt Monday, lol.

GTKY: What is one thing you "must do" before baby gets here? The people who owned this house before us did some weird shit. Lorelei's room has a hook and eye lock on it from the OUTSIDE and it also has a giant hole in the wall with lil' knick knack shelves and super bright spot lights built into the hole. THere are blinds to shut over it, but the stairs are right below that hole in the wall and the door that closes to the stairs is also kind of noisy...so we will be needing to rip out all the shelves and trim and the lighting and like, drywall over the hole or something before she gets here so she doesn't wake up at every noise.

What size is baby?

Romaine lettuce

Upcoming appointments?

Not for a week and a half. I feel silly at these appointments now since overall I'm fine.

Rants/Raves/Questions?

I'm sick

I caught a cold from my 5yr old DD. My throat hurts, I'm congested, and feel crappy. When she had this cold, the only visible symptom was her mucous. I kept asking if her throat hurt or if she felt sick any other way, turns out she was lying to me so that I wouldn't keep her home from kindergarten. Mom fail.
I keep having really vivid dreams, and not necessarily good ones. I just woke up from a bad dream that we were in an old brick building in Seattle, and a big earthquake hit. We were racing to get downstairs and away from the building when I woke up.

Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?
Lots of BH, even when I sleep. I guess this is normal for me, my other 2 pregnancies I also had lots of BH. Don't quite remember this many though. Swollen feet and hands, but my BP has gone back down into the safe zone and I didn't gain any weight between my 2 week visit!!! It's a miracle.
I still want to eat pastries, cookies, and steak. My aversions have gone away except I'm burnt out on Chinese food, it doesn't taste right and gives me mad heart burn.

GTKY: What is one thing you "must do" before baby gets here?

Um, one? Haha, get ready? The nursery is still a guest bedroom, but in a week my sister is taking one of the beds so I can actually start working on it. Not sure if that is more important or packing my hospital bag.
It seems that all of my nesting urges are going to other parts of the house, so that I can make room for the stuff that needs to come out of the guest bedroom. But I get distracted super easy...

29 weeks!

What size is baby?

Acorn squash.

Upcoming appointments?

3-hour glucose test Monday morning since I failed the one hour last week. Grrr. *shakes fist*

Rants/Raves/Questions?

DD has been such a two year old lately. I'm trying so hard to enjoy her before little sister comes along but it's getting more and more difficult.

Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions?

Lots of BH, some sciatica (but that's mostly improved!), and just really really tired.

GTKY: What is one thing you "must do" before baby gets here?
We need to get the nursery set up! Or at least put the rock and play together and buy some diapers haha.

jandd2014 · October 2016

How many weeks? 32! When I got put on bed rest, this was the big milestone my doctor was hoping for! So glad we've made it this far!

What size is baby? cabbage

Upcoming appointments? regular check up on Thursday

Rants/Raves/Questions? @yellingbanana YES to the weird and vivid dreams!! I've had everything from being a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader to watching my car roll into a river and then at the last minute realizing my dogs were still inside it :'( The biggest reason I'm having trouble sleeping is because my crazy dreams keep waking me up.

Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? I just want to eat ice cream all day long.

GTKY: What is one thing you "must do" before baby gets here? My one thing would be to finish all the half done home improvement projects DH has going on! We haven't had a vent hood since Memorial Day. Half the house has new blinds. We have random spots where there are no baseboards. Today he decided to rip out the mini bar in our living room. He better patch the walls/carpet back up before Baby gets here!

Rants/Raves/Questions?

Feeling all you ladies on the vivid dreams. Sleep is hard.

GTKY: What is one thing you "must do" before baby gets here?

I need to finish up a couple projects around the house and do my Christmas shopping for SD and DS1!

What size is baby? acorn squash

Upcoming appointments? just had one this past Thursday, but I'm now on the biweekly appointment schedule, so the next one is right around the corner. I passed my glucose test! At least, they said they'd call Friday if I failed and nobody called!!

Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm totally done with being pregnant. I just want to be a mom already. Definitely not one of those women who love pregnancy. It's not that I've had a hard pregnancy. I'm lucky in that it's been pretty good, actually. I'm just not enamored by the experience. The night back pain also makes bedtime something I almost dread, which is unfortunate because I love my sleep.

Symptoms/Cravings/Aversions? the back pain has stepped up to the next level. It's not just at night anymore. Plus, baby is really starting to crowd my diaphragm at certain times per day, so I can't sit upright sometimes and I have really taken to slouching at my desk.

GTKY: What is one thing you "must do" before baby gets here? I was freaking out about how much I had to do in the house last week to my parents. They are amazing and came out this weekend to help put a larger dent in the projects than DH and I could do on our own. Baby officially has a place to live and sleep! The nursery is essentially done, just waiting to see what we get at our upcoming showers for it. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. My baby won't have to sleep in a dresser drawer! Haha. Now we just need a car seat and we have the bare minimum to welcome our baby.

@gizmo1231 Xmas shopping already? I'm impressed. I'm hoping I can use the baby as an excuse to get out of buying presents thi year ;-)

Gizmo1231 · October 2016

@littlebirdie28 girl, I'm just hoping I can get it done! Christmas is DH's busy season so I will essentially be a a single parent to 3. Cue the crying.
