    How far along are you? 30 weeks 

    How big is baby? Zucchini 

    Upcoming appointments? Not for two weeks 

    Any new symptoms or changes? Starting to get more tired again, but feeling pretty good otherwise. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? For some reason 30 weeks suddenly feels so far along! I feel like I need to finish everything up right away! 

    (Borrowed from Saturday) GTKY: Favorite snack to eat at the movies? Popcorn! The buttery the better although it tears up my stomach.

    Just saw this! 
    How far along are you? 33 weeks

    How big is baby? I think celery this week. But the produce comparisons are kind of boring me now that I can feel the baby's body parts pushing on me. Seeing and feeling the butt protrude really makes the baby feel big. 

    Upcoming appointments? I had one today. 

    Any new symptoms or changes? The struggle with depression is a back and forth thing. I brought my mood up in the symptoms thread today and got more attention than I was prepared for or wanted. I'm hoping to feel better tomorrow. 

    I also have had increased fatigue paired with what might be nesting (where I feel like everything needs cleaned). Currently the fatigue won. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I know we've had whole threads devoted to tearing, but it is currently one of my worst fears. I have never had stitches or any really bad cuts. The minor cuts I've had over the past several years look worse than they are and take a long time to heal and leave dark scars. I guess I'm most worried about not healing properly of I tear. Not really a question, but currently accepting encouragement and advice. 

    (Borrowed from Saturday) GTKY: Favorite snack to eat at the movies? I think the movies are too expensive. I'd rather spend all the money on a nice dinner! Chips and salsa is one of my favorite snacks.

    @kyreno11 - I hear you about the mood and the ambivalence around acknowledging it <3  I also feel baby's bum now all the time and it makes it feel so real and so big.   I'm a FTM, so I can't speak from experience about tearing, but I'll try my hand at offering some perspective - I've heard so many people, with and without epidurals say that they couldn't feel it happening.  I can totally believe that, to an extent, because there's so much going on and your body will be pumping so much adrenaline, even if you don't have an epidural.  Also, I know many friends who have torn and recovered fine, even people with complications.  But the real comfort I've derived in my own similar fears is related to what my midwife said - which is what a lot of others have echoed here - about slowing down the pushing and position.  My midwife said she actually does a lot of side lying deliveries because it creates more room in the pelvis for baby to exit.  Either way, trust that your body has gotten this far in creating a human being that it can certainly navigate healing from a tear, if need be.
