Re: *Sunday* ticker change
Upcoming appointments? Tomorrow afternoon
Symptoms? Everything is so very swollen suddenly.
Cravings? Cheesecake and other sweets
Rants/Raves/Questions? Any pro tips for the swelling?? I don't remember it being so bad or sudden with DD. My hand keeps swelling up so bad at night that it's waking me up.

Upcoming appointments? Had one last week. I think the baby is laying sideways based off of kicks and hiccups. We are doing a scan at 36 weeks to determine positioning. Fingers crossed this nugget moves.
Symptoms? Headaches So many headaches.
Cravings? Ice cream. Pizza. I'm a teenage boy or a crime fighting turtle these days.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Meh.

35 weeks and a mini-lop rabbit
Upcoming appointments? Next week. I had one last Monday and things were low key as usual.
Symptoms? I switched prenatal (I ran out of my giant bottle so I got more at Costco) and it might be wreaking havoc on my digestive system. Also, baby is moving a ton, and I hope that means he's moving into the right position.
Cravings? Ice cream and popsicles this week
Rants/Raves/Questions? Getting out of chairs and my bed is becoming quite the ordeal.
GTKY: Post a gif or picture of how you're feeling today (with an explanation if you want or it needs it). I'm not quite this elegant getting off the couch
Upcoming appointments? This coming Friday. Maybe she'll finally schedule my RCS.
Symptoms? I've had a bit more energy lately! I'm credited the iron supplements for anemia. Still having insomnia, heartburn, lower back pain, occasional m/s, and my appetite has greatly increased the last few weeks. Gotta fatten this baby up!
Cravings? Fresh fruit, cheeses, bread... only thing missing is vino!
Rants/Raves/Questions? Rave: We got a new coffee table that's super long but not very wide, and goes perfect with our sectional! Makes the whole living room come together. @Nxy I've never really had swelling, but I've heard to increase your fluids, add lemon to your water, keep your feet elevated, and call your doc if it persists!

I'm going to ask the doc about it tomorrow during my appointment for sure. Make sure we are within 'normal'
Upcoming appointments? Nothing this week - last week with no appt until he's here!
Symptoms? Bit of swelling. Getting these boughts of dizziness/feeling sick. I have to sit down or I worry I'll pass out. Two days of that now.
Cravings? OJ and popsicles
Rants/Raves/Questions? For STM - hospitals up here don't supply much so I'm supposed to bring 6-8 pairs of full back underwear. Or I could just purchase a box of mesh underwear for $8. Do I just buy the mesh underwear? Are they as wonderful as I hear they are?

34 weeks, butternut squash
Upcoming appointments?
Thursday! I have so many questions!
Symptoms?
The swelling. Oh my gosh, the swelling. I have pitting edema on my ankles. I'm drinking a lot and resting when I can, but I can't do that very often.
Also, my hand are going numb at night. It's really annoying!
Cravings?
None. Actually a lack of appetite now due to the severe heartburn and reflux.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I'm an idiot for signing up to work this week. I'm so busy! 12 hour shift on Monday, eye doctor for my son on Tuesday, 12 hour shift on Wednesday, doctor appointment and conference on Thursday, conference all day Friday, conference half day Saturday...stupid! I'm looking forward to the conference and really love going...I just don't shouldn't have signed up to work the 2 shifts. To be fair, the schedule was put out 6 weeks ago when I was still feeling great.

A current picture of me and my children.
33 weeks - celery
Upcoming appointments?
Growth u/s on Tuesday.
Symptoms?
I'm feeling okay although I definitely can't move around as well. Certain positions and walking for a long time give me tailbone/sciatica pain and tightness in my lower back. I'm trying to still stay active, but it's tough.
Cravings?
Sweets and things I shouldn't have.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I made a lot of progress with baby stuff this weekend. The nursery still needs more stuff cleaned out of it, but I cleaned the closet, went through a bunch of baby gear that was stored away, found a bunch of diaper packages and washed a lot of gender neutral stuff. I still feel like I have a lot more cleaning, organizing, researching and shopping to do over the next 6 weeks.

33 Weeks. He's pineapple sized.
Upcoming appointments?
None this week. At my last appointment I went through the calendar with the receptionist and made the rest of my OB appointments
Symptoms?
You guys remember that recent viral video of the pregnant woman running over the thief who snatched her purse? Let's just say I totally get that woman and where she was coming from in terms of rage.
Cravings?
I'd just like to eat on my own schedule at this point. Struggling to eat on the prescribed GD timelines through the the day, especially on the weekends.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Pregnancy is a nice conversation starter, we've had a lot of kind interactions with (non-weird) strangers when out that are a result of me looking visibly pregnant.

Rants/Raves/Questions? I've been in a pissy mood lately and literally just over EVERYTHING! I need to calm it down a notch.
