    I didn't keep anything, but I found the same bear I had as a child for DS and I found the same bunny for this baby.  

    @onesmallcoconut my cousin found her Furby when they were cleaning out their house and it still works!  We were messing with it at Christmas this year and DS thought it was hilarious.

    Haha I'm glad others kept their Furby too. I'm thinking with a fresh pair of batteries it will be up and running and creeping people out  lol

    When is your due date?

    What's the size of your LO?
    Just under 3 pounds

    What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? Work last week was crazy and then DH worked all weekend. So, This week we are going to see a movie on Friday and getting our room rearranged for the baby.

    Any upcoming appointments? I have an appt tomorrow. I passed my glucose last appt and got the rhogam shot, so this one should be uneventful. I can't believe I am being see every 2 weeks now!

    I have a lot of dresses my mom kept, though baby boy may not appreciate those. Both of my daughters have worn them though. Unfortunately, DH's house burnt down before we were together and most of his family artifacts went with it. My dad has some items little boy can have when he is older. Watch, art, family albums.

  • How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO?  30 weeks today!  Zucchini, may 2nd. 

    What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? 
    I’m getting uncomfortable!  I don’t recall feeling like this with ds, perhaps I blocked it out.  I don’t get much sleep because my hips hurt when I lay on my side. And the heartburn.  Maybe this one will come with a gorgeous mop of hair like my first.  
    I put up a decal in the nursery, it’s 8 birch trees. I have the leaves and owls left to do.  So far I love it.  

    Any upcoming appointments?
    I see my low risk clinic tomorrow.  No test results to review so I expect a quick in and out. 

    GTKY: Did you keep anything from your childhood that you plan on passing down to your little ones?
    My mom kept some baby blankets and a few dresses.  DH tried to pass on a ratty, dirty old teddy bear to ds.  No.  His dad said it’s an antique.  No.  
  • @onesmallcoconut sorry about the lightning crotch, I have yet to experience that.  It’s hard to believe we have less than 10 weeks to go!  I know time is going to speed up now :)

    @mileswithmyles yay for sorting through baby clothes!  Half of ds wardrobe is hand me downs, I love free/cheap clothing!

    @lady_mormont18 I don’t know, your baby boy might love dresses!  It’s hard to get ds out of his cousin’s dresses when I try them on him :)

    @squashandlaces lucky gal! I can tell you it's not fun lol stops me in my tracks. sorry to hear about your lack of sleep. I'm in that boat too. I don't know about you but for me it doesn't seem to matter if I try to go to bed early either - still just as tired. 
  • @squashandlaces I didn’t have heartburn last time and I do this time. I’m ready for it to stop any time!
  • How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO?  30+1, zucchini

    What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? 
    I had two weird episodes where I felt like I was going to pass out and broke out into a cold sweat, but other than that just enjoying all the other things like insomnia, constipation, heartburn, backache, etc. 

    Any upcoming appointments?
    I saw my midwife on Tuesday and told her about the episodes I had. She said if it happens again they’ll refer me to a cardiologist. Other than that baby boy sounded good and my giant ute is still measuring 6 weeks ahead.

    GTKY: Did you keep anything from your childhood that you plan on passing down to your little ones?
    I think I have one baby blanket that my
    mom managed not to leave with an ex boyfriend.
  • @squashandlaces the hip soreness is awful! I haven’t had it yet this time but I remember it with DD2... as if you need one more thing to keep you awake!
  • @MissusTexas FX for no other incidents. 
  • @MissusTexas oh dear, hoping for no more episodes for you! 
  • How far along are you? When is your due date? What's the size of your LO?
    29+5 with my 30w-ish appointment tomorrow. EDD 5/5, size of squash or something now?

    What's going on this week? How are you feeling, any rants or raves? 
    I get exhausted easily now, my tailbone hurts after sitting on my office chair all day. I'm scarfing down sweets like an absolute pig!

    Any upcoming appointments?
    Tomorrow! So happy to have every two week appointments now instead of monthly.

    GTKY: Did you keep anything from your childhood that you plan on passing down to your little ones?
    No, I figured it would be much easier to just buy everything new instead.
