Thanks for always getting these going @WorkinWeezel!
How far along today? How big is baby? 36 weeks...papaya
New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms Sleeping horribly, swollen feet/ankles, pelvic pressure/pain..feeling my pelvic bone 'pop' when I'm flopping over in the middle of the night.
Appointments/US this week Next appt is tomorrow. GBS test. then weekly after that.
Random Questions Can anyone else remember what it feels like to not be pregnant? Also, how's everyone's reno's doing?
Rants/Raves I'm so over socializing. Tired of going to gatherings where everyone is drinking and having a good time, and I'm just sitting with my swollen feet up unable to do much other than feel like a beached whale. Our bathroom reno is another step closer. Just waiting on the shower door (which might be another 2 weeks!!!), and texture, painting. Then a few finishing touches. Do you have a birth plan? If so, share it here. How "married" are you to this plan? Being a FTM and trusting the process...getting an epidural for sure. baby is head down so hopefully things go smoothly.

Appointments/US this week Appointment on tomorrow
Random Questions No question just tired
Rants/Raves No rants this week so far, but hey it's just Monday and I haven't gone to my appointment yet. So that could all change. Do you have a birth plan? If so, share it here. How "married" are you to this plan? This is number 3 for me so I'm just really winging it so far. I have a good idea of what I would want, but with having an elevated heart rate, I'm just really wanting the safest option for me and baby.

Random Questions
Rants/Raves I just want this kid to NOT be as huge as the others. Not going to get my wish. Do you have a birth plan? If so, share it here. How "married" are you to this plan? Same, just winging it. I'd prefer to avoid a C Section as much as possible, bc they scare me. I would like to not get the epidural until my water breaks. But whatever keeps everyone safe!
How far along today? How big is baby? 36 weeks/ Chihuahua, cabbage patch doll, or papaya
New/Interesting/Festering Symptoms I pulled my neck putting my underwear on yesterday, so there’s that... basically same old same old.
Appointments/US this week Next week Monday.
Random Questions None.
Rants/Raves Last week at my appointment, I thought baby might be breech and he was too high for my doctor to tell internally. She felt around on my stomach and wasn’t totally confident with which way he was, but because I’ve been feeling hiccups up in my ribs said he very well might be breech. So at my next appointment if she can’t tell we’ll do an u/s. If he is breech (I’m not so sure now, I haven’t felt hiccups in a few days and his movements have been causing a lot of pressure on my stomach so he could have flipped again) or transverse like he was at my last ultrasound like 13 weeks ago, we’ll schedule a cs for 39 weeks. I have no feeling about this. Obviously I want to avoid it if possible and I’m praying baby is head down and STAYS! But I’m ok with whatever needs to happen and I’m ok with having a set plan and knowing when he will come. We’ll see. Do you have a birth plan? If so, share it here. How "married" are you to this plan? I kind of went into it a little above, but basically whatever will get baby and I out of this alive is the plan. If baby is head down, I want an epidural ASAP. I plan to labor at home a little if I go into labor spontaneously-I was induced with my last. And ideally I would like this baby to come a couple days early and my labor be shorter than my last. Haha. Both things I have no control over. Pretty “married” to making it out alive with a healthy live baby, but other than that, whatever needs to happen will happen!
@rachelsogo I had a dream I wasn’t pregnant last night and my belly went right back down. I cried a little when I woke up. Haha. Our bathroom Reno is FINALLY basically done!! I have to touch up a couple spots and clean the walls, but done none the less! I finally have my kitchen back and my bathroom back!
I felt baby flip before the appointment!! At least I’m pretty sure! There was so much pressure and it was so uncomfortable. When I went in he was still super high so she couldn’t feel. She did an ultrasound and he did in fact flip! Head down now!!!!!
