  How far along are you? 39 weeks tomorrow
  
  How big is baby? Pumpkin 
  
  Any appointments this week? Monday-last one before EDD
  
  Symptoms? Everything...lol pressure, hips/pelvis sore, uncomfortable, hemorrhoids...tires
  
  Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm over being pregnant and would love to love on to the next chapter! 
  
  Progress made or plans for baby preparation? Did the last load of laundry including the second coming home outfit if he doesn't fit the other lol the lantern came in for the hot air balloon idea I have. The basket fell out in my moms car so hoping she remembers to bring it to brunch tomorrow so I can make it! Bottles were sterilized last weekend. I don't have my pump yet so I can't do that. Feeling pretty good with our progress and prep. Just need the little guy to show up now! 
  
  GTKY: It's hard to be positive in these last weeks. So, what's good about still being pregnant?  Hmmm I'd say the movements.  As much as they can be painful sometimes it's still a cool feeling to experience.

  How far along are you? 38 weeks
  
  How big is baby? Wintermelon? Watermelon sounds better.
  
  Any appointments this week? Yup
  
  Symptoms? My bump is forever uncomfy, I've started sleeping on the couch more because of it. Also, exhaustion beyond control. Oh, I almost forgot! I can now see the inside of my belly button...could've gone without that.
  
  Rants/Raves/Questions? Raves-sneezed twice at work, didn't sniss.
  Rants-H told me this morning he's going home for Mother's Day. Like really? You're going to be gone 2 weekends in a row? Nevermind the fact that we haven't got to spend any time together in the past 2 weeks. A very small part of me hopes my water breaks tomorrow just to spite him.
  
  Progress made or plans for baby preparation? I almost have 1 blanket done. Also the shelf that will be the dresser for now arrived, I just have to put it together.
  
  GTKY: It's hard to be positive in these last weeks. So, what's good about still being pregnant? All the ice cream I've been eating.

  @absbubbs sorry about your H being gone 2 weekends in a row. Doesn't seem like the right time to do that! Oh, and I concur...eating all of the ice cream! Plus we've made cookies twice this week and yeah I can't stop eating them lol and pop tarts...I've done so well this whole time and the last week or so I've given up!

  @BabyMC517 ALL THE FOOD! It's so odd that I struggle to eat a meal, but I can snack until the cows come home.

  How big is baby? Wintermelon? Whatever that is
  
  Any appointments this week? Yep, Tuesday
  
  Symptoms? Lots of heartburn, apparently peeing myself, loss of appetite, over hormonal emotions and tonight some lovely diarrhea 
  
  Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm just sick of being pregnant. If I make it past Monday this will be the longest I've ever been pregnant and it's making me crabby.
  
  Progress made or plans for baby preparation? I scrubbed that gross ring around the tub, that counts for something, right?
  
  GTKY: It's hard to be positive in these last weeks. So, what's good about still being pregnant? Family has been treating me too lots of coffee and snacks and that's nice, I guess. I also like how DD has started running around the house saying "Baby! Baby!"
