Rant/Rave/Questions? We finished the nursery. Finally! I think next week I'm going to start making my list for the hospital bag and actually get it started. I'll probably start packing anything that's not H and I's clothes or electronics. GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? I really love Canada and I don't think I'd want to leave. I'd be happy to leave Quebec, however, so I'd probably go buy a nice house in Banff, Alberta.

Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
When is your next appointment? tomorrow! dietitian and growth scan in the am.
Symptom changes? Always tired. Actually LESS back and hip pain
Rant/Rave/Questions? I keep forgetting to do my stretches/ exercises/ kegels. Whoops. Gotta squat more. GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? I love living in Missouri, I'd just have a nicer house. But we also like California, Michigan and Oregon. I'd love a beach house in Georgia where we got married :-)
How big is baby? 3 stacked hungry man TV dinners or half a lg cheesecake from cheescake factory
When is your next appointment? Check up tomorrow, and then biweekly appts (I think)
Symptom changes? Tired tired tired....belly grows overnight I think, baby girl thinks I should be bigger and pushes so hard like she is trying to push my belly out more. She has gotten so strong!
Rant/Rave/Questions? I have been slacking on the kegels too...oops. And I am starting to get to the point where going to work is a torment...and I want to be home!!! GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? Our goal is to move to Vermont eventually, so I would be living there in a gorgeous cabin in the woods with acres of land
When is your next appointment? Regular checkup this coming Tuesday.
Symptom changes? Nothing really, just feel like I need to sleep a ton. But pretty much no other issues, feel really lucky so far - not sure if its the acupuncture but I feel really good generally.
Rant/Rave/Questions? I am waiting for the burst of nesting. And the nursery thread is making me feel terrible as I have literally nothing, and we don't have a full sized nursery room. I just finally ordered a rug and changing table and organizer things - so hopefully in the next week or so I'll feel a little more prepared. GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? Well, we pretty much live where we want already, which is Los Angeles, and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. We do have a long term plan of retiring to the Napa Valley.
When is your next appointment? Tomorrow for a sizing scan. FX for 3D pictures
Symptom changes? I now have 2 nightly pee-breaks, and my belly button is half-outie.
Rant/Rave/Questions? Rave: I have begun pulling the pregnant card. Got an invite to a project meeting. I need to present something to the client, but it's during an appointment so I declined it. They can handle it. Random manager (a rather spazzy one) tried to get me to reschedule Dr. I just said no. 7 weeks left; I'm coasting.
GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor?
When is your next appointment? it's supposed to be December 28 but I might end up changing it.
Symptom changes? I'm terribly uncomfortable all of a sudden. My belly just feels like it's done with stretching and is now rebelling leaving me kicked in the vadge, hips, and ribs. And it's cold here so I always get dry in the winter, but I'm really itchy and dry compared to usual.
Rant/Rave/Questions? I can't believe I'm 32 weeks!! Some of us are due a bit earlier than me, it's just crazy knowing that some of us could go into labor at any moment now... (we have January people in here too, who if they go a couple weeks early could be very soon, or some of our bed rest mamas) GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? Costa Rica. I've been there on a missionary trip, and would want to go back. But if money really wasn't a problem, I'd move around every year, just because I want to see the whole world. I have a list of places I want to see, but my H is afraid to fly and I don't know about cruises going everywhere lol.
Rant/Rave/Questions? It's just been an emotionally draining week for me. GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? I'd love to live in the SF Bay Area.
Rant/Rave/Questions? my mind is totally on Christmas vacation. We're going to go get our tree tomorrow! Also, 7 weeks until my due date?!? So excited! GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? I would totally live on a cruise ship. I adore cruising and would somehow make it work.
@purplewriter did you see the movie "overboard" with Kurt Russle and Goldie Hawn? I always imagined owning a giant yacht like that just for fun, but I've never done a cruise so I'm not sure if I could live on it, or if I'd get sick lol
@kswiger06 I love that movie!! I've watched it so many times since I was a kid. I suppose if money was no object, having my own giant yacht with staff and going around the world at my own discretion would be perfect too! I've never gotten sick on a cruise, but I've been on boats since I was little (Michigan born and raised!) so that might help me.
When is next appointment? MFM growth scan for measuring small next Tuesday.
Symptom changes? I was fairy miserable earlier this week after hurting my back but now doing better. Once that got better I have actually been doing pretty well.
Rant/Rave/Questions? I am ready for the gift buying to be done. I usually enjoy the holidays a lot but this one seems more stressful then normal trying to get everything done.
GTKY: Right now I would love to live in Hawaii but I always worry I would miss the seasons. Otherwise my DH and I have tossed around what other countries we would consider living in- Canada, New Zealand, etc. We talk about countries where I could actually work but I guess if money is no issue then it opens up lots of other places.
Symptom changes? Not really, but getting bigger, feeling awkward and lots of pain in my public bone with too much activity. Trying to stay off my feet when I can.
Rant/Rave/Questions? I just really wish I had more energy right now, Christmas is coming so soon and I have so much to do and feel not ready at all! GTKY: Where in the world would you live if money was not a factor? I can't actually imagine us living anywhere else, our families are here. But, my house would be done, things would be paid off and I could hire a housekeeper and a nanny, lol.
