5. GTKY: If you could guarantee one aspect of your pregnancy or labor/delivery experience, what would it be? (For arguments’ sake, assume that whatever choice you make will result in a healthy baby/healthy mom, because I am pretty sure healthy baby/ healthy mom would the guarantee for all of us.)
Re: Friday Ticker Change 6/29
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 26w, size of a Double Gulp, zucchini, curling iron
2. How are you feeling? Either great or exhausted! Mentally feeling better now that I bought some more summer maternity clothes so I'm not struggling with feeling uncomfortable in my own skin.
3. Any appointments this week? Does next Friday count? Aaaaah after that it's appointments every two weeks!

I'm not so picky: epidural and no tearing, but I guess that's two
edit to correct baby size

Get to the hospital on time! Babies apparently like to just shoot out of me, so I would love to guarantee that I'm safely at the hospital for delivery, and that it went at a safe pace for me and baby
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?

No pain after meds and no getting sick! That would be the best ever. I didn't get sick with DD and I am so hoping I keep up the track record.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 24wks VIABILITY!!! Who knows.
2. How are you feeling? I had my first illness while pregnant this week and it just sucked I don't know if it was the pregnancy or work pressure or having a 2 year old, but I've never felt such horrible sinus pressure before in my life,
3. Any appointments this week? Nope, none for a while
4. Rants/raves/questions? None
5. GTKY: If you could guarantee one aspect of your pregnancy or labor/delivery experience, what would it be? (For arguments’ sake, assume that whatever choice you make will result in a healthy baby/healthy mom, because I am pretty sure healthy baby/ healthy mom would the guarantee for all of us.) I had a c-section last time after 30 hours of labor, since I'm a glutten for punishment we are attempting a v-bac. I'm going with a shorter labor experience. I'd even take 15-20 hours. Fingers crossed this one wants to come out before the cut date.

1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 26w, kale I guess? I feel like that comes in many different sizes
2. How are you feeling? Huge and tired. My body is all achy from the heat and how much extra weight I have hanging around.
3. Any appointments this week? Did yesterday. Just a tummy check and talked more about the delivery/recovery since it will be a c-section this go around (it was not with DD)

(For arguments’ sake, assume that whatever choice you make will result in a healthy baby/healthy mom, because I am pretty sure healthy baby/ healthy mom would the guarantee for all of us.) I just want my body to cooperate this time and not try to kill me after delivery like last time haha. I guess the more “wishlist” type guarantee would be for the hospital to serve delicious food during my stay. Last time I had prime rib since it was Christmas the next day, but the other meals during my stay were “meh”
How are you feeling? Starting to feel my belly getting in the way and im tired and having constipation.
Any appointments this week? Nope I had one last week baby is approx 1 lb 13 oz and hes head down I was worried he was breach and they told me my iron levels have gone up a little from last time. They never told me they were low in the first place so now im taking iron
Rants/raves/questions? So irritating I cant hold my son for more than 1 minute without getting out of breath
If you could guarantee one aspect of labor/delivery what would it be? I agree with some previous people. I dont want to tear and have stitches. My first I didnt tear and i pray I dont this time
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
26 weeks, a fancy French soda (i tried to google for an interesting comparison...)
2. How are you feeling?
relatively good.
3. Any appointments this week?
nope.
4. Rants/raves/questions?
fifth pregnancy and i just found out that this uncomfortable feeling where my whole belly feels like a rock is BH contractions. who knew. (other than everyone except me, probably).

hmm...it would be nice to have a vaginal birth without the need for induction. my babies so far seem to want to just hang out forever (which i do appreciate to a point, for sure)...but you would think by number five my body would get better at kicking them out after a certain length of time.
again, i do not mean to be insensitive. i know this is better than the other way around, just if i'm planning something ideal in my head...
