27 weeks, as big as lettuce

2) How are you feeling?
the best way to describe it is, hungover. I feel like I have a massive hangover...every day lol.

Baby boy and I've been getting "you're so big" comments.,.

Nope. Next week I have two!

Rant: moving is god awful

6) GTKY: What food do you hate that everyone else seems to love? Will you feed it to your child even though you hate it?

I don't hate it necessarily but I'm not in love with avocado as many others are. I prob will give to LO tho since it's a great healthy fat.

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 28 weeks! The size of an eggplant. As of yesterday, Baby A weighs 2lb12oz and Baby B weighs 2lb4oz.

2) How are you feeling? Good! Bed rest is getting to me. I've cried like 8 times today over nothing. I just hate being alone most of the day. I am breaking out tonight to go to a Twins Sale, most exciting thing I've done on a Friday in 6 weeks!

3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing? Team Blue x 2. And yes! When I was 24 weeks I was measuring 33 weeks. The ob will measure again on Monday.

4) Any appointments this week/last? I met with the GD Team, MFM and cardiologist this week. On Monday I have another ultrasound and OB appointment. And we are going to a breastfeeding class Monday night.

5) Rants/Raves/Questions? I already ranted above. Gestational diabetes is getting easier. I've stopped blaming myself. They've increased me insulin every 3 or so days and I'm sure they will increase it again on Monday when I sent in my numbers.

My first baby shower is this weekend. I'm super excited to see so many friends and family!

6) GTKY: What food do you hate that everyone else seems to love? Will you feed it to your child even though you hate it? I'm not a veggie fan. Like broccoli. Yuck. I eat it while pregnant but hate it. My husband loved it so we will have our children eat it, too.

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 29 weeks! Acorn squash. Or possibly the incredible hulk. He feels HUGE this week.

2) How are you feeling? Like we went through a growth spurt this week! Finally getting past the flu, and getting used to the GD diet/exercise/meds routine. I think this is the first day I haven't felt sad about it so far, so hurrah for progress.

3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing? Boy. And ohgodsyes. He's gonna get how much bigger before we're done?

4) Any appointments this week/last? I was in Triage monday (thanks stomach flu), at the CDE on Thursday, I have an OB appt next Tues. I'm basically either at the OB or the CDE or both every week until he gets here now.

5) Rants/Raves/Questions? My aunt came by work today to have lunch with me, and didn't bat at eye at me brown bagging it, or needing to walk after eating, or log everything. It was the most normal interaction I've had with someone not in my household regarding food since my GD diagnosis and I really needed to know it could happen.

6) GTKY: What food do you hate that everyone else seems to love? Will you feed it to your child even though you hate it? My relatively few food hates are all texture-hates (or allergies). We just don't have pineapple in the house, due to my allergy, so the kid will have to explore that somewhere else.

1) How far along are you? How big is baby?
27 weeks, jar of peanut butter

2) How are you feeling?
Pretty good

3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing?
Girl, yep

4) Any appointments this week/last?
I have my glucose test Wednesday

5) Rants/Raves/Questions
someonw gor access to one of my apps, changed. Email to his email and the charges money to my account. So I am not debit card less and dealing with figurinf this out.

6) GTKY: What food do you hate that everyone else seems to love? Will you feed it to your child even though you hate it? I hate mustard and tea. I don't give DD mustard but do let her have sips of tea.

Marley629 · September 2017

@dkizz82 Mines Wednesday too! Good luck!

dkizz82 · September 2017

@Marley629 you too! I failed my one hour with DD by a few points. It wasn't t til like 3:00pm. I'm going in at 9:00 this time. Hoping to pass.

Marley629 · September 2017

Lol same here @dkizz82. I think with DS, my appt wasn't until the evening and I failed by just a few points. I have a regular OB appt first at 10:30 and the glucose test is right after at 11:30 in the lab. They told me just to make sure to eat 2 hours before. Bacon and eggs it is!

dkizz82 · September 2017

@Marley629 that's my plan too

PoeMasque · September 2017

Eep, we've had guests all week/weekend so I'm super behind here! Good luck to all the ladies doing the glucose test this week.

1) How far along are you? How big is baby?
28 + 3, third tri! Woot!

2) How are you feeling?
By the end of the day my ribs and back are killing me and I'm not really sleeping anymore, I'm going to try some Tylenol PM and see if that helps. Unisom was making me a zombie the next day

3) Do you know baby's sex? Have you started showing?
Yes, boy, and yes

4) Any appointments this week/last?
I have PT today (can't wait!) and a check in with OB tomorrow, which is the first of the every other week OB appts

5) Rants/Raves/Questions
Rave! My fiancé finally tackled the garage this weekend! It's far from done, but we could actually park a car in it now! We also found a contractor to redo our bathroom before baby comes and my mom stayed with us this weekend to help me paint the nursery, so that's finally done. I just have to hang the closet doors, finish painting the crib, and then we can put it all together! Can't wait to have it done.

6) GTKY: What food do you hate that everyone else seems to love? Will you feed it to your child even though you hate it? Sweet peppers. They make me want to vomit and they are in everything! We never have them in our house since I do the shopping, so it's likely our kiddo won't have them very often.
