Re: Weekly check-in EDD Jan 8-14 w/o 8/27
EDD?
1/11
Symptoms?
Periodic terrible bloating/gas. Last night I felt uncomfortable for hours. This happened with DD through the entire pregnancy so I better just get used to it.
Upcoming appointments?
Middle of Sept for routine OB. Had my A/S on Friday and all looked good with our little BOY! He's measuring a few days ahead but I'm sure doctor will not change the EDD (same thing happened with DD).
R/R/Q:
I wanted to go to the State Fair with DD today and the weather forecast looked perfect and then we woke up to rain. I was bummed even though we have plans to already go on Friday. DH is going to Vegas this weekend to do his Fantasy Football draft with his college friends -- they go every year so I'll be solo parenting for a few days. Not looking forward to that.
GTKY: Is there anyone you want to emulate as a parent? Why? Or, is there someone you want to be the exact opposite of?
Both DH and I were raised by really great parents. We combine some of how we are raised and then throw in our own ideas, it's seemed to work out so far!
Symptoms? Hungry all the time! I'm having some really bad rlp, during the a/s the tech kept pushing down and around and I almost jumped off the table.
Upcoming appointments? Routine appt 9/17
R/R/Q: We're going to order the crib this weekend and buy some other things for the nursery. My plan to be 99% done by the time I'm 30 weeks is coming along nicely.
We had our a/s last night and little guy was so cute! He kept putting his hands up to his head and was really chill the whole time. He's measuring a week ahead and estimated to weigh 14 oz which is big for his gestational age. My ob already won't let me go to my due date so I'm wondering if she's going to adjust it or not.
GTKY: Is there anyone you want to emulate as a parent? Why? Or, is there someone you want to be the exact opposite of? I most want to be like my mil. She is a very fair parent with her boys.
I least want to be like my mom. She was a very angry mom and directed her anger at my siblings and I.
Symptoms? still the nausea... lots of baby wiggles, I'm with @UnbreakableKimmySchmidt with the bloating...OMG.... its so weird. Never bloated so much in my life. Also CONSTIPATION...
Upcoming appointments? Sept 14
R/R/Q: none... starting to dip my toe into making a few purchases and starting to get myself together.... booked interviews with a few doulas for next week.
GTKY: Is there anyone you want to emulate as a parent? Why? Or, is there someone you want to be the exact opposite of? I want to be like any mom who is doing a good job! lol... this is a hard question! I feel like we are going to try to go with the flow and get help from people who are doing well.
@UnbreakableKimmySchmidt I hate the idea of hubby taking a weekend off a bit too! lol. He has a work conference coming up in Oct that he brought up and I was like: go, do your job man. LOL he was like: really you don't mind? Nope (hell yeah i mind, but I'm gonna pretend its fine )
jgil85 yeah... my girl was really low on anatomy scan attempt #1 and the tech seemed to hope if she kept pressing my pelvic bone would get out of her way!!! The next scan the lady kept jiggling my belly to get the baby to move around! lol

Baby #3 EDD: 6/18/24
1.10
Symptoms?
Lower back pain, but I think a lot of it is all the driving I do. Those bumpy roads are killer. I might try to get into my chiropractor.
Upcoming appointments?
AS this morning, next dr appointment on the 13th.
R/R/Q:
I had my AS this morning. All looks well! The placenta is no where near the cervix, so I’m not sure what we saw last time. It was such a relief to hear. Also, we finally got the confirmation shot that baby is for sure a girl. We were 99% up until today. I just didn’t want to commit to anything until it was 100%.
GTKY: Is there anyone you want to emulate as a parent? Why? Or, is there someone you want to be the exact opposite of?
Opposite of my mother. She does some shady things. My mom was never around when I was younger and I ended up raising kids. Even when she was around, she wasn’t really around. She never taught us anything and took joy in causing fights between. She still very much so enjoys causing fights between us. My dad was always there for us, and that’s how I want to be. He’s more calm and understanding, and far less judgemental.
