How far along today? How big is baby? 29 today, acorn squash
New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms So tired!!!! Physically and mentally. I seriously just can't function anymore. I did a 2 hour consultation with a potential client this morning, and it was so mentally draining that as soon as it ended I just decided I can no longer be a functioning human being today. Rising blood sugar, despite exercising for 20 mins every night on the elliptical. Expecting to have to start insulin next week. Sciatica.
Appointments/US this week MFM appointment Tuesday morning, where I'm sure the doctor will put me on insulin. Tour of the hospital I am currently set to deliver at that night. Meet and greet with potential new OB/midwife practice Wednesday (group that delivers at a different hospital, that I also need to tour at some point soon).
Random Questions Not today.
Rants/Raves Just wish I knew where I was delivering and with who. I tried arranging a phone call or meeting with the managing midwife at my current practice and she never got back to me. That was honestly my attempt at trying to rectify how things have gone over there so I could stay with them. At this point I feel strongly that I've lost trust in them and cannot see myself delivering there. I have two other good options on the table, one I am visiting next week and the other I am visiting the following week. And I still have 3 hospitals to tour - the one I am currently delivering at (with the group I am highly considering leaving, but still want to make as informed a decision as possible), then the two hospitals that the two groups I'm meeting with deliver at (each deliver at different hospitals). I am not meeting with the 2nd group I'm considering until May 8th so I won't likely make a decision until then, and my husband is only able to come with me to one of the meetings, and none of the hospital tours. I am stressed and overwhelmed. And did I mention tired??
If you could be any animal what would it be? Hmmm. Cat because they sleep so much....or maybe a dog for basically the same reason, but they also seem happier than cats.
How far along today? How big is baby? 29 weeks! Baby is as big as an acorn squash (or a Barbie convertible!)
New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms Lots of back pain and pubic/hip pain. Need to drag out my pregnancy pillow from the basement and see if it helps at night.
Appointments/US this week I had one on Tuesday. My DD had to come with me and sit through my glucose test and two shots. She did amazingly!
Random Questions
Rants/Raves failed the 1-hr glucose. Have to do the two hour next week. Womp womp.
If you could be any animal what would it be?
tough question.. maybe maybe a house cat? They have life prettt easy. Sleep all day, get fed, snuggle. Sounds good to me lol.
ETA I’m changing my answer because we all chose cats lol. I’d like to be an elephant too. I like that they live in a herd and they have emotional attachments to their relatives! Or an otter because they hold hands while they sleep!
@zande2016 FX that you are happy with another hospital/practice and it makes your decision to leave easier.
I never post on this thread because I rarely get on here on the weekends. But I’m joining in today! How far along today? How big is baby? 27w1d - the app says kale but the ticker (which I can’t see on mobile probably says something different).
New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms BH contractions when I do too much. Heartburn is more frequent.
Appointments/US this week Glucose test and standard 28w blood work on Monday. Office appt on Thursday.
Random Questions none
Rants/Raves I’m in full on nesting mode and have gotten rid of so much clutter recently and it’s making me so happy lol. We’re tackling the garage today and thankfully DH isn’t complaining about working on that. It feels so good to be getting things done!
If you could be any animal what would it be? Probably a cat. They get to be so lazy lol. I just realized we all chose cats. I’m not creative enough right now to change my answer lol.
