  • 1) 29 weeks? Can you believe it? That’s less than 3 months to go! 

    Im 28+2, EDD is feb 5. Can’t believe how the last couple weeks have flown by.

    Pretty good. Finally starting to feel the little squish and that’s eleviating a lot of stress

    30w appt next week, finally meeting with the L&D doctors. 

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?

    It's going so fast!! It's hard to believe it's just under 11 weeks till I meet my little girl!  <3

    2) How are you feeling?
    Pretty decent, can't complain. Left hip and lower back pain, insomnia, and tiredness are my main symptoms.

    3) Any appointments this week?
    Not till Tuesday

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Just laying awake at 3:30 am for no particular reason and wishing this wasn't a nightly occurrence.

    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?
    Stuffing! Though sweet potatoes are a close second. And apple pie! Really, I love it all.

    @pandappanderson Seeing a chiropractor has helped a lot with my lower back and tailbone pain. She also suggested icing it rather than using heat. Don't know if that might help?
  • 1) 29 weeks? Can you believe it? That’s less than 3 months to go! 

    Indeed time has flown, I am 28+4

    2) How are you feeling?

    Pretty good, no major complain.

    3) Any appointments this week?

    No appointment this week, but next Friday.

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?

    I am so uncomfortable with the discharges I have. It' just too much and I am allergic to pantyliners. Any advice please?

    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?

    Stuffing.
  • @sweetgirlamaris I’ve been changing my underwear multiple times a day cuz I just don’t feel fresh and I’m not a pantyliner fan. 

    @pandappanderson have you tried kinesio tape? They have guides for pregnancy taping.  I just bought some myself but haven’t tried it. 

    1) I’m 28w6d today with a 2/9 EDD but I just scheduled my repeat csection for 2/2 so baby girl will be here in 10 weeks! 

    2) How are you feeling? TDAP shot hurts like a bitch. I’m up multiple times to pee every night. We did some nursery stuff last week and I definitely felt i was over doing it. 

    3) Any appointments this week? I went to my last monthly appt on Tuesday 11/21 and go back on 12/5 for my 30 week appt/growth ultrasound. 

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Ahhh still want to rant about my tdap shot making my arm sore. 

    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?

  • I second the uncomfortable amount of discharge. I bring changes of underwear to work bc even with a pantyhose liner it’s gross and addthe sweat if I’m hot...omg nasty. I do laundry multiple times a week bc of this and I refuse To buy more because there isn’t much longer to go. 

    And i hate answering questions threads like this but I’m due feb 6th and have a csection scheduled for Jan 24th if she doesn’t come before then. My last was a 36 weeker so we will see!
  • 1) 29 weeks!
    2) feeling pretty good but my appetite is off- I don't know if it's just that there is less room in the belly, or if hormones are impacting my appetite- but either way, I just don't have much interest in food. A little weird 
    3) appointment scheduled for Thursday - then I'll be going to the doc every other week until baby arrives 
    4) mild rant - I don't want to use this pregnancy as an excuse to be lazy, BUT I wish my family would understand how Tiring/ overwhelming it can be. They all have kids so it's not like they don't know from experience- but I've been asked to do a lot of favors recently, do a lot of thanksgiving prep, run a ton of errands and I say yes but it's exhausting and I wish I could get just a litttle tiny pass - again, don't want to be lazy but I'd like it if they remember how the 3rd trimester is just NOT a time filled w energy and an abundance of stamina.
    5) this year I'm looking forward to the stuffing and gravy 
  • 1) 29 weeks? Can you believe it? That’s less than 3 months to go! 

    2) How are you feeling?
    pretty good. BH are driving me crazy... and I feel huge out of no where. I’m ready for feb already and still have a while to go. 

    3) Any appointments this week?
    3hr Glucose test is Thursday. I’ve never passed the 1hr. If we have another I will just ask for the 3hr lol 

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    not really. Where are all the good BF online deals?! I can’t find any good ones 

    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?
    I was loving the turkey/mashed potatoes/stuffing/gravy at my moms thanksgiving lunch today! So good!

  • @sweetgirlamaris if you are sensitive to panty liners,  I use 7th generation. Aroma free organic maybe? good for the environment and what not. I also have some cloth ones from glad rags
  • @Megzb510 I do change my underwear too but I just get rid of It, as I have to wash 3x a week.
    @libbodee I will try the 7th generation and see if it is different, thank you.
  • @gingermama26 I have been seeing a Chiro every 2 weeks and it does help a lot but doesn’t seem to last! I’m going to see her today and get some relief and maybe start seeing her a bit more often. 

    @Megzb510 I have never heard of the taping! I will look into it! Any relief would be great:)

  • @pandappanderson yeah I've been going every week. It's definitely not been a permanent solution, but it's helped alleviate a lot of the pain. My left hip still feels sore when I sleep on it, but not nearly as bad as it was.
  • Hey everyone! I started the post this week but if anyone wants to do it regularly or can just pitch in the set up up that’d be great. I can’t promise to do it timely/weekly. 

    1) 29 weeks? Can you believe it? That’s less than 3 months to go! 

    I’m psyched. December is going to fly by. 

    2) How are you feeling?
    I’m feeling very third trimester this week ha! Bending difficulties, aching, restless legs, more peeing, Braxton Hicks. It feels like it really hit me almost all at once. 

    3) Any appointments this week?
    I had my 3 hour glucose test earlier this week and it was awful. I was at the docs 8 am-12:30 pm. I felt shaky and feel asleep the first hour. I’m hoping all turns out well though. 

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Rave is that I’m getting baby shower stuff in the mail and it feels like double Christmas happening! 

    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?
    I really love it all. But the stuffing does it for me! 
  • 1) 29 weeks? Can you believe it? That’s less than 3 months to go! 

    2) How are you feeling?  I have a constant sinus infection which combined with being winded makes it sound like I can't breathe.  Rode a little over an hour to my brother and SIL's today.  The round trip was too much.  My long car rides are over.

    3) Any appointments this week?  My 30 week check up on Thursday.

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?  My family spent most of Thanksgiving dinner telling me how things were when they raised us in the 80's.  I just went into the living room and laid in the recliner.

    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?  Green bean casserole!!!
  • @chucksmom15 I just came down with something in my sinuses in the past 2 days! Ugh! I haven’t been sick in almost a year. How are you handling it? How long has it stuck around for? I’d like to zap this thing ASAP bc my baby shower is in 5 days. Right now I’m doing humidifiers, tea, and a low dose expectorant.

    I've been using a humidifier since first trimester bc my sinuses were so dry I was getting nose bleeds @mblomq2.  I was doing Allegra-D and saline but my OB told me to bump up to Mucinex and over the counter Flonase. That seems to be helping a lot but it's still lingering.  On the Mucinex make sure it is plain Mucinex.  No Mucinex-D or Mucinex-DM.  I am taking the extra strength (1200mg I think) twice a day.  OB said I can take it as long as needed if I follow dosing instructions.

    2) How are you feeling?
    Indigestion, heartburn, symphysis pubis. Peeing every hour through the night. I cannot sleep

    3) Any appointments this week?
    Next appointment is first week of December

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    When do you start buying baby stuff? DH wants to wait until January and I'm worried that is cutting it close
    Due to the uterus stretching I have no appetite or room. I only eat at lunch then an apple and cup of yogurt for dinner and at least 2.5-3L of water a day

    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?
    Stuffing although I didn't manage to get any this year :(
  • 1) 29 weeks? Can you believe it? That’s less than 3 months to go! 
    SO crazy!!
    2) How are you feeling?
    Sciatic pain is really bad, also getting to the point where I don't even want to wear my maternity clothes, everything feels too tight (I think because I am more short of breath due to baby, but it feels like due to bra/clothing choices)
    3) Any appointments this week?
    Friday check up
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    My shower is this Sunday which I am super excited about. DH may be squeezing in one last two week trip to the middle east before the baby comes which I am bummed about but can't really argue with the money. 
    5) GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving dish (or holiday if you don't have Thanksgiving)?
    Usually stuffing but I could NOT eat it this year, I made sausage and sage stuffing like normal but it was too meaty and too much. I basically only ate mashed potatoes and 3 pieces of chocolate cake. Not the most festive.
