Rants/Raves/Questions?
What did you accomplish this week to prepare for baby? not a dang thing other than a million appointments. I nagged DH to paint the inside of the closet so I can get everything put away.
GTKY: If you had an extra hour each day that you HAD to use on yourself, what would you use it for? TV or sleep.. thankfully DH doesn't care that I randomly take naps everyday!
I'll have a routine 38 week appointment on Thursday with a cervical check. I'm sure I'll get the resultant of my GBS swab. I also have a dental appointment with the endodontist about a dental issue I had several weeks back. They are FINALLY getting me in to be seen.
Pelvic pressure, starting to feel a bit uncomfortable and I can only breathe deeply if I sit or stand straight up. A little tightness in my back. Overall still feeling pretty good.
No rants/raves/questions
We built our glider, made 5 freezer meals, started baby's laundry and the hospital bag. Still need to install the car seat base.
If if I had an extra hour a day to myself I would probably watch guilty pleasure TV
How far along are you? 35(+2) How big is baby? Huge.
Team pink, blue or green? Green
Appts this week? Check up yesterday (baby is head down again!) and now onto weekly appointments finally. Also been seeing a chiropractor this week.
Symptoms? Just feeling huge and movement is becoming slower.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm just ready for the squish to get here, but still have anxiety about everything I want to get wrapped up at work before maternity leave.
What did you accomplish this week to prepare for baby? I took my kids on a little hospital tour yesterday, which was awesome. Plus, I finally just ordered two homecoming outfits, one girl and one boy. They are both so cute!
GTKY: If you had an extra hour each day that you HAD to use on yourself, what would you use it for? Taking a bath and reading my book.
How far along are you? 37 weeks How big is baby? The size of a brick cell phone
Team pink, blue or green? Pink
Appts this week? Ultrasound and OB check up
Symptoms? One swollen foot/ankle
Rants/Raves/Questions? At my last appointment dr said I'm thinning but not dilated and she's so low she could feel her head. She said if I can get to 3cm by the 31st she wants to do a balloon induction. Um no thank you. That doesn't sound pleasant at all!
What did you accomplish this week to prepare for baby? Got some freezer meals done.
GTKY: If you had an extra hour each day that you HAD to use on yourself, what would you use it for? My nails, I'm obsessed with doing my nails.
Haven't seen a Thursday or Friday ticker change this week.
Thursday/Friday? Thursday
How far along are you? 37 weeks How big is baby? I have no idea. Big enough to stretch his bum into my ribs and stay there.
Team pink, blue or green? Blue
Appts this week? Monday for a regular appointment
Symptoms? Just large.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I wish I felt secure that my MIL actually wanted to be here for this baby's birth. All she's done so far is complain that her snowmobile season has ended.
What did you accomplish this week to prepare for baby? Cleaned, did laundry, stocked up on laundry supplies, random shopping trips, washed all my wraps and carriers, some baking, lots of appointments this week.
GTKY: If you had an extra hour each day that you HAD to use on yourself, what would you use it for? I'd probably read. I have a backlog of books I'd like to get into but I'm so wiped out by the time DS goes to sleep I never get to them.
How far along are you? 37+4 as of today How big is baby? HUGE!
Team pink, blue or green? Blue
Appts this week? Thursday; doc will check my BP, baby's HR, and do another cervical check...which was not pleasant the first time around, but hoping to hear I have made more progress...especially after all the contractions I have been having!
Symptoms? Contractions (Braxton Hicks?) swelling in my feet/ankles, lower back pain...all the fun stuff
Rants/Raves/Questions? I hate not knowing "when" this baby will make his debut. I am a planner, and "soon" is hard for me to accept. I want to know date/time/etc
What did you accomplish this week to prepare for baby? We completely finished the nursery and have all his stuff put together and ready for his arrival!
GTKY: If you had an extra hour each day that you HAD to use on yourself, what would you use it for? Right now I would probably use it for a nap
How far along are you? 35+4 today How big is baby? Pineapple
Team pink, blue or green? Blue
Appts this week? Just a regular appointment. Last one before my GBS and the start of cervical checks
Symptoms? The reflux got even worse, which I didn't think was possible. And my sciatic nerve has really started to bother me the last few days. I made it much further without that pain this pregnancy, but I was hoping to avoid it all together.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
What did you accomplish this week to prepare for baby? Absolutely nothing. I really need to clean out my car before installing the car seat base...
GTKY: If you had an extra hour each day that you HAD to use on yourself, what would you use it for? I would like to say I would either read or go for a run, but I would probably end up doing chores instead...I always get sidetracked...
