Re: Friday Ticker Change
32 weeks!
2. How big is baby?
Pomelo
3. Any upcoming appointments this week?
Next Friday
4. Any new symptoms?
Lots more contractions and can't really walk around much before I'm in major pain.
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions?
Baby boy is still transverse and has been flipping between that and breech. I know there's still plenty of time but I'm certainly a little concerned. DD was transverse until about 34 weeks and then head down. Hopefully he will do the same or I'll be googling spinning baby techniques.
Also, increasing anxiety about my due date. My brother and SIL will be going back overseas August 31. Sister and BIL will be here from SC until August 26. My due date is August 18. Doctor won't induce until 42 weeks. I know I can't worry about it too much but this is family I will not see for another 3 years. I honestly can't imagine going that far past my due date but I just don't know since with DD I was induced at 39 weeks for various reasons. Different doctor.
6. GTKY: If you could have any job in the world, what would it be? Why?
Professional traveler. I'd love to travel around and review food and study different cultures. But honestly, mommy is the best job in the world.
5.5.16 | 8.14.17 | 1.30.19
1. How far along are you? 33 weeks
2. How big is baby? The bump says celery, Ovia says ferret. The way my belly feels and is measuring, I say a prize winning watermelon
3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Not till July 5
4. Any new symptoms? Same old crap
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? Nope
6. GTKY: If you could have any job in the world, what would it be? Why? I wish I had the time and patience to write a book.
2. How big is baby? Quokka (yeah I didn't know what it was either)
3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Next week- measurements etc. Than at the 36week we do the US and labor plan etc!
4. Any new symptoms? Nope, still swollen at the end of the day, some BH going on and general tired.
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? DH and I got the wave mirrors up and the decals taped to see where we like them for the nursery 'underwater' wall...hoping to finish this weekend and I will post it!
6. GTKY: If you could have any job in the world, what would it be? Why? I wanted to be an entertainment reporter so probably something still in that realm. I am the friend who knows everything about all that despite not watching tons of TV.
That or a reviewer for hotels-I have an intense observation of the little things so I think I would be good at that, plus I like to travel and try out new resorts etc.

2. How big is baby? I've seen pineapple and I've also seen asparagus, which don't seem to be equal to me at all
3. Any upcoming appointments this week? Just my shot this Monday
4. Any new symptoms? I just wrote in another thread that I had menstrual like cramping last night and a little today with no Braxton Hicks accompanying it. I've still had a Braxton Hicks here and there but they don't seem to be correlated which seems weird.
5. Rants/ Raves/ Questions? I get nervous at this time in my pregnancies because I've had preterm labor and scares with the other two
6. GTKY: If you could have any job in the world, what would it be? Why? Honestly I've always wanted to be a labor and delivery nurse. I was pre nursing initially in college before I realized I didn't want to go through the other aspects of nursing. I've also always said maybe one day I'll try to get my real estate license because that would be really fun for me. I love researching homes. I also really like travel planning, but I feel like travel agent jobs aren't really as needed as they used to be.
