Wednesday Ticker Change

I think we all know this was blatantly copied from Tuesday, that's just how we roll.

How far along are you?
How big is baby?
Any appointments this week?
Symptoms?
Rants/Raves/Questions?
GTKY: Any plans for Easter this weekend? If no Easter plans what are your weekend plans?

Re: Wednesday Ticker Change

  • How far along are you? 34 weeks
    How big is baby? A basketball hoop? Looks like I'm not the only one who has kind of given up at thins point.
    Any appointments this week? Nope. Got lucky again and have some time between 32 and 35 weeks. 
    Symptoms? Not quite at the point where it feels like her head is about to fall out of me but we are getting there. My pelvis is toast.
    Rants/Raves/Questions? My BP was insanely great at my last appointment when they decided to take it at the end instead of the beginning of the appointment (because I am a crazy person). Hoping that keeps up. Still trying to pin down move dates and a place to live though... yay!
    GTKY: Any plans for Easter this weekend? If no Easter plans what are your weekend plans? Nope. Husband was insistent that I do a basket for our toddler so we will have that but no big dinners or anything.

  • I like that we have no shame in copying from another days ticker change.

    How far along are you? 34 weeks

    How big is baby? A butternut squash. 

    Any appointments this week? I finally had my anatomy scan yesterday. From what the doctor could see everything looks good. She wasn't able to get a good look at the face. I have my 35 week appointment next Tuesday. 

    Symptoms? I had the worst lower back pain yesterday while sleeping. I just wanted to curl into a ball, but my belly prevented that. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Still coming to terms with the fact that I am having a RCS. Hopefully I have a few more weeks to work it out mentally. 

    GTKY: Any plans for Easter this weekend? If no Easter plans what are your weekend plans? Saturday is my grandma's 93rd birthday, so we are throwing her a little party. Sunday we will gather with my family and then MH's family after church. 
  • @achays11 glad your scan went well!

    How far along are you? 36 weeks

    How big is baby? No clue but I haven't been gaining weight despite eating more... I'm starting to worry a little.

    Any appointments this week? Tomorrow morning. I guess I'll see what they say about baby's growth.

    Symptoms? Charley horses, heartburn, insomnia, waddling, swollen feet and hands, thirsty. About the same as past weeks.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Sooo I've quit team green. We're having a girl! Woo! Mother's intuition meant didly... I totally thought we'd have a boy. I'm super excited-- still trying to figure out how DH feels about being outnumbered though. He says he keeps seeing pink everywhere. 

    GTKY: Any plans for Easter this weekend? If no Easter plans what are your weekend plans? Just enduring Easter meals with the in-laws. I'm not really into Easter. My MIL is hosting breakfast and is making everyone create a peeps diarama. And my FIL and SMIL invited us over for dinner. I think we're going to skip dinner. I really just want to skip all of it. Send good vibes.
  • @cclaineDC Congratulations on team pink! At the scan yesterday I told the doctor not to tell me but that I wasn't going to shield my eyes. She never got a shot between the legs, so I still don't know. 
  • How far along are you? 37 weeks.
    How big is baby? Well hes measured average since day one and apparently when she checked last week he was weeks ahead.  Who knows.. My temp OB is a bit off with most things.  
    Any appointments this week? On Friday. Its my last appt with the temp OB. Then i'll get a new one. fun fun. 
    Symptoms? I can barely walk. It feels like hes going to fall out. Everything hurts. 
    Rants/Raves/Questions? My husband has much stronger features than I do. I really hope this kid has something that looks like me. 
    GTKY: Any plans for Easter this weekend? If no Easter plans what are your weekend plans? No Easter plans yet. My family celebrates and we'll probably have dinner. I should ask them about that. H is Jewish and we have our Passover Seder on Saturday. Busy weekend. 

  • How far along are you? 37 weeks. Yay! 
    How big is baby? No idea. 7lb4oz last week. So probly close to 8 judging from my 37 week 8lb baby last time. 
    Any appointments this week? Yes. Tomorrow. Just released from the hospital today and following up tomorrow. 
    Symptoms? Very achy in the nether regions. Contractions all day everyday. 
    Rants/Raves/Questions? Oh so many. Our doc kept us in the hospital for 7 days. And I'm having a very hard time dealing with the fact that the doc on call today and perinatologist said they were shocked to see me still there. Rechecked me and said baby's head is engaged now so the cord prolapse risk is not really a concern anymore and apparently being at 24 is the high end of normal anyways. I trusted my doc and now I don't know what to think. I spent everyday in tears being away from my boys and I feel like maybe it wasn't necessary. Not to mention to hospital bill that will result from this. 
    GTKY: Any plans for Easter this weekend? If no Easter plans what are your weekend plans? If I'm home we will just stay home and have a nice breakfast after hunting for our baskets and eggs. I need to get that done still. Otherwise we may be in the hospital depending on this boys plans.

  • @achays11 thanks! Yeah... we got overwhelmed by name choices and decided to open the envelope with the NIPT results. Stay strong!
  • @mamatowildones what a week you've had... hope everything turns out alright and​ that you get to go home soon!

    @cclaineDC: PLEASE take pics to share with the class!  ;)

    @mamatowildones: Big hugs, for dealing with your shaken trust in your doc. On top of being away from your boys. This is one small step in the marathon and you're doing awesome, you're so close to the finish! Hang in there!
  • @mamatowildones I'm sorry the other docs threw you for a loop. It is easy to Monday morning quarterback medical decisions, hindsight is 20/20 etc. 

    Happy youre going home though!

  • Thank you Wednesday mamas. We are home and following up with our doc in office today. I'm really anxious to see how she feels about me getting sent home while she was out of town yesterday. I'm just hoping she doesn't contradict what they decided and make me nervous about being home. I'm so torn between wanting him out because I'm so done and uncomfortable and wanting him to continue growing safely in there. Trying to be positive and being home with my boys is the best right now.

  • Good luck today @mamatowildones! Hopefully your doctor doesn't cause you any extra stress. 
  • Good luck @mamatowildones! I realized yesterday that not only are we due date buddies but I think we're also using the same name for our LOs. Thats pretty cool!  Thinking about you both today.

    That's awesome! 

    Thanks ladies. No cervical change. Doc happy his head is very well applied now so cord prolapse risk is much lower. Rechecking fluid level Tuesday. If it's really high again then we induce Wednesday
