1) How far along are you/when is your due date? 25 weeks/Oct 31

2) Symptoms? EVERYTHING IS SWOLLEN!! LOL! I'm starting to feel like a balloon!!

3) Rant/Rave/Questions? None this week

4) GTKY: mini re-intro - how many babies & ages, etc? we have 1 dd - exactly 2.5 yrs old yesterday. I'm pregnant w twin boys. I've started to go through dd's clothes to see what i can save and reuse and she has sooooo many pink clothes!! I didn't think we'd had that many pink clothes. DD and my mom are totally against having the boys wear pink clothes. While I don't really care, I'll respect their opinion and donate the rest but man, I thought we had bought more of a variety of different colors.

Nothing much this time

4) GTKY: mini re-intro - how many babies & ages, etc?
We have an 18 month old daughter and this baby is a boy! Like PP we've been going through clothes and thanks to excited grandparents we have so much pink, purple and frilly girl clothes that we won't reuse for him. Luckily I bought some more neutral stuff and we have tons of white onesies lol

@friendlywolf0913 - that sounds painful! hopefully, it'll ease up some? good thing you bought some neutral stuff - very lucky! We do have a bunch of onesies that we kinda stole from the hospital - so i guess that'll help some too ..

1) How far along are you/when is your due date? 28 weeks 4 days, due October 9

2) Symptoms? Heartburn....from everything! Lots of sleepless nights (not from getting up to use the bathroom or anything like that, just once I get up to go the bathroom I cannot fall back asleep).

@friendlywolf0913 I'd heard about tailbone pain but didn't get to experience it until week! ouch! No fun. Sorry you've had it too!

@jsh5 I'm doing a baby shower and this is my second but my first is a 10 yr old boy and this baby is a girl, so we decided to have one this time. I think it depends on what you need for baby that you dont still have. My friends who have had kids recently and still have a bunch of their baby stuff recommended either a diaper shower or a "sprinkle" (they just asked for things like diapers, cute outfits or books, but not big ticket items they already had).

1) 25w3d, due Halloween!

2) Peeing all the time and frequent (painless) contractions. Not to ramble on that too much but I saw the MW yesterday and there were no cervical changes or signs of labor with the contractions, so that's good for now.

3) Rave is I finally picked some items for the nursery! I had been very indecisive so it feels good to have settled on something! (although I haven't actually started buying...)

4) This is baby #2 and a girl. DS is 10. ***TW***This pregnancy follows a loss in Dec 2016 so we've been very nervous but excited. ***end TW***

hopeby2015 · July 2017

@jsh5 - i wanted a sprinkle since we are having twin boys and my first was a girl. But my sister is getting married so between her shower and wedding, i don't think I'll be doing anything. We kinda need some big ticket items too like a new stroller, and car seats.

1) How far along are you/when is your due date?
29w3d, due Oct 3rd!

2) Symptoms?
I'm majorly slowing down, lol. The number 1 discomfort is the pubic bone aches, especially if I do anything that involves tilting my hips in any way. I've had this with my othe two pregnancies, but never this early. It's seriously feels like a combo of having a giant bruise on the bone and feeling like it's about to break in two

3) Rant/Rave/Questions?
My mom and sis just told me they're planning a baby sprinkle for me and baby boy, I'm so excited and grateful!

4) GTKY: mini re-intro - how many babies & ages, etc?
i have two other littles: daughter 1 is almost 5yrs old and daughter 2 is 2.5yrs old. This baby is a boy and we're so excited!!

jsh5 · July 2017

@hopeby2015 My MIL asked me today who was throwing my shower and when I said I wasn't having one everyone looked dumbfounded...my husband stepped in and said we have all the big stuff (true) and we got looked at like we had 4 heads.
Twins! That's so exciting!!! Congrats!

marousse · July 2017

1) How far along are you/when is your due date? 28 weeks/October 10th

2) Symptoms? Major movement lately. Started my kick counts this week. Lots of fun! Carpal tunnel maybe? Pain in my left wrist and numbness and tingly hands. I can't remember having this before. Anyone else?

3) Rant/Rave/Questions? Excited to see baby on Tuesday. Not excited about GD test also on Tuesday.

4) GTKY: mini re-intro - how many babies & ages, etc? This is baby #3. I have 2 boys ages 10 and 6. We aren't finding out what we're having.
