How are you feeling? Not sleeping as well but overall not too bad. Super hungry this past week.
Rants/Raves: our neighbors on one side are the worst and have been calling the city on the daily to complain about our garden. So now we have to fight the city using the code. I'm optimistic that we're actually fine, but annoyed to be doing this a 4th year in a row. The ones on the other side are awesome, though!
Questions: none
GTKY: IF you could have one wish, and it is not allowed to be for more wishes, what would that wish be? I'd like to be independently wealthy but have no one else know about it so I could do what I want without getting pestered.
👋🏼 I’m here! Ds is starting school tmrw, I’ve been preoccupied but I’m back!
Est Due Date/Weeks + Days: 24w5d 12/5
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: 💙
Upcoming Appointments: 8/29 for check up and GD screening
How are you feeling? So sleepy, I’m up so much at night I’m drained during the day.
Rants/Raves: 1, Ds starts school tmrw and we met his teacher last night, not a fan at all and dreading dealing with her all year. And 2, my brothers law school pinning is Friday at 3pm downtown. Since we lost our dad I’ve stepped up at these things for him so I’m going but man I’m not looking forward to battling rush hour traffic and walking my pregnant ass across campus in the heat.
Questions: none that I can think of today.
GTKY: IF you could have one wish, and it is not allowed to be for more wishes, what would that wish be? It’s not exciting but if it was my last wish ever I’d wish to be more laid back. I probably stress about unimportant things and get bent out of shape too easily when things don’t go as planned. I also hold onto anger for longer than I should. Can that all be one wish?
@nothingbuttherain We had horrible neighbors on one side when we lived in town. They were extremely rude and not very neighborly. Sometimes I miss the interaction of our other neighbors but living out in the county with no one to bother us has been so nice.
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Pink- Ellie is getting super active and kicky!
Upcoming Appointments: End of August bloodwork for glucose
How are you feeling? I’ve been feeling pretty well! I’ve been craving more fruit, veggies, and protein foods, less dry stuff. Constipation during pregnancy is a bitch, and dry foods don’t help that! I’ve been keeping things moving along with magnesium and water, but it’s still rough sometimes. My belly is getting to be more genuinely pregnant looking, like all day long. Lots of kicking, flipping, punching, maybe tap dancing?
Rants/Raves: Rave/Rant- We went to Disneyland last week and walked a ton! It was great- almost 20 miles of walking in two days. Bad part, my feet were thrashed by the end, more delicate than usual, plus I don’t think the heat did us any favors with staying hydrated. I’m ready for the cooler weather, sigh...🥵
Questions: Does anybody else get slightly annoyed when your pregnancy is acknowledged at sometimes and not at others? For example, I get some people that get weirdly uncomfortable about letting me do something around them at work because I’m pregnant (and it’s usually a silly read to be uncomfortable), and yet when I’m out walking around in public, I think some people just think I’m normally overweight and don’t say/do anything to help me at times I might actually need assistance. It’s just...weird.
GTKY: IF you could have one wish, and it is not allowed to be for more wishes, what would that wish be?
Um, that’s a tough one. I think I’d wish to be able to keep my family healthy, happy, and safe doing something that I truly love for my work. Work is on my mind a lot lately, and I’m excited to say that I think I see the end of this monotonous work road is near. On to being happy with what I do!!
Upcoming Appointments: 8/29 for follow up anatomy scan (placenta was kinda close to my cervix last appointment)
How are you feeling? Big. I’m having some pain next to my vagina (assuming this is ligament pain?). It was so bad today at work but I found sitting down in a squat helped relieve it a bit
Rants/Raves: woof that glucose test is gross- I hope I pass!

my wish would be for my family to be happy and healthy. Or for dogs to live longer!
Hi ladies! I've been a little quiet around here lately because I have family visiting from out of town. But I think I'm caught up on reading all the posts now.
Est Due Date/Weeks + Days: 24w5d...but my c-section has been scheduled for Nov. 19, so less than 3 months to go now😲
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Pink
Upcoming Appointments: Glucose screen this Thursday
How are you feeling? I can't really complain...but I will, a little. I'm not sleeping too well. Over the weekend it felt like my morning sickness returned for a few days, which was weird and most unwelcome. Also my feet hurt any time I do much walking.
Rants/Raves: My rant is that I'm going to be really busy this fall at work getting things squared away for before my maternity leave. But, on the plus side, I finished my FMLA paperwork and met with HR and I have everything set up to take 11 weeks off. And since I've been strategically hoarding my PTO for years, I will be able to be paid for all of it, which lessens my financial anxieties a bit.
Questions:
GTKY: IF you could have one wish, and it is not allowed to be for more wishes, what would that wish be? Long and happy lives for all of my loved ones.
How are you feeling?: okay. I’ve been getting back pain and leg cramps at night 👎
Rants/Raves: my in-laws were visiting for the week, and before they left, they took us baby shopping and bought us a bunch of stuff. It was so unexpected, and I’m so grateful for their help ❤️
Questions: anyone else getting kicks to the bladder? She had one night where she wouldn’t stop kicking there, and it sucked so bad.
GTKY: IF you could have one wish, and it is not allowed to be for more wishes, what would that wish be?
@pennyandzooey Yes! I’ve been getting bladder kicks and/or pressure. Usually leads me to try to go pee, and sometimes I can barely squeeze any pee out! It is kind of annoying 😛

For my family to be healthy and well!
@pennyandzooey He kicks me in the bladder several times a week and it’s definitely uncomfortable.
