How are you feeling? I am doing ok. Still in a lot of pain in my pelvic area and hips. Was going to make an appt, but am trying to just wait until my regular appt next week.
Raves/Rants: Rant... my 6.5 year old is on a sleep strike and it is killing me. She is all of a sudden scared of everything, is "lonely" and doesn't think it is fair she has to sleep alone and her Dad and I get to be together, her stuffed animals freak her out, oh and she likes our bedding color better than hers...eyeroll. Just a few of her excuses. Normally I would cave and let her come sleep in our room but I am having to stand strong because this needs to be over before the baby comes because she will not be in our room when I am waking up a few times a night to feed her brother. Anyways, I am just exhausted today after only getting 2 hours of sleep and am really missing my exceptional sleeper. And also missing my sweet little girl. Not the one that tells me, " I don't get it. Why do all my friends have the best parents, and I have the worst?" at 1:30am....

GTKY: What are you shopping for this Black Friday/Cyber Monday, if anything? I am at a loss this year and my brain is just not on Christmas. But I will be trying to find a tablet for my daughter so she has something to play with when the baby gets here and can stop using my phone. Any suggestions on a good tablet for a 6.5 year old?

Upcoming appointments: I have an appointment with my regular OB on Dec 5 and then I have my first NST and ultrasound with my MFM on Dec 11.
How are you feeling? I'm tired...like all the time. But on the bright side, I'm really enjoying all these movements. I've reached the point of pregnancy where it looks like there's an alien in my stomach. I like looking down and seeing my belly jump and distort whenever this kid decides to roll over.
Raves/Rants: My house is sick. Both DD and DH have a bad cold. Thankfully, DH doesn't fall victim to the "man cold," but it's still rough when everyone is under the weather. My toddler isn't sleeping well as a result and actually threw up twice last night. I don't think it's a stomach bug...but when she gets very congested and cries, it often makes her throw up. All that makes for even less sleep. I'm hoping everyone is feeling better by Thanksgiving. I'm also hoping I make it out alive. Hopefully this is a bug I've already developed immunity for...
Questions: None this week.
GTKY: What are you shopping for this Black Friday/Cyber Monday, if anything? I don't know if I have anything specific in mind. I'll just be on the look out for good deals for gifts. I'm 100% an online shopper though, so the only thing I know for certain is that I'm not going to be braving crowds or fighting strangers for discounts.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Blue 💙
Baby is the size of a(n): Zucchini? Maybe as tall, but this sizing thing is becoming more inaccurate by the week.
Upcoming appointments: Today for a check in and the Pertussis vaccine. Had the flu shot on Saturday, hoping they don’t interact and make me feel like crap.
How are you feeling? Im tired and starting to feel some pressure and cramping that makes sleep near impossible. I guess that’s all normal but I’ll mention it at the doctor today.
Raves/Rants: Thursday is turkey day and I’ve never been more excited!
GTKY: What are you shopping for this Black Friday/Cyber Monday, if anything? Absolutely nothing! I never really invest in these shopping holidays because I typically DIY gifts. So I’ve taken the whole day off just so I can sit on my couch with my pjs on and not have to do anything. The excitement is unreal 😂
@lanie1000 hope your family starts feeling better soon and you don't catch their bug.

How are you feeling? Heartburn still likes to act up and definitely more uncomfortable these days. Generally pretty good though. This morning, I slipped on some ice in the parking lot at my work. Landed on my bum and not even very hard, but wasn't sure if I should go to the hospital for an NST. So I texted my husband and he looked stuff up then said I probably want to call the doctor or the provincial medical support line. The nurse at my ob's office was so helpful and called me twice, once when she got my message and once when she got ahold of my doctor (who is out of office). Unless I start cramping or bleeding or if baby starts failing the kick count I should be fine and I am going to see her Thursday as well which was already scheduled. Baby has been extra active this morning just to allay my fears. 😍 And my coworkers are so great and supportive which has been lovely.
Raves/Rants: Raves - my parents finally got to feel baby move this weekend and Sunday morning my husband got a half hour straight of non-stop movement. Also, I submitted my capstone on Friday night so that's a huge load off my plate.
Rants - none this week.

GTKY: What are you shopping for this Black Friday/Cyber Monday, if anything? Probably nothing. We really don't need more stuff right now, especially with Christmas coming.
