Upcoming Appointments or Results: Routine OB appt with blood work and gestational diabetes screening at the end of this month
How are you feeling?: I've felt a little larger and more awkward this past week. Also, I've invested in compression stockings and had DW start massaging my feet at the end of the day to help with puffiness. Trying to keep it from turning into the full blown, painful swelling I've seen other women get during pregnancy.
Rants/Raves: Our 9 month old giant puppy absolutely hated all the fireworks noises and has been a high strung wreck the last couple of nights. I'm looking forward to all of us (hopefully) sleeping better tonight.
Questions: Anyone have any tricks besides compression and elevation for preventing or treating foot swelling?

Upcoming Appointments or Results: Had a CT scan today which confirmed I have an 8mm kidney stone in my proximal ureter (meaning in the last 6 weeks since pain started, it has moved very little). At this point l, chances of it passing are very slim so I will likely need a procedure to remove it. Next OB visit will be towards the end of the month. May need to have a repeat ultrasound too because they didn't get all the cardiac views they wanted during the AS due to baby's position.
How are you feeling?: Extremely anxious due to the likelihood of needing an anesthetized procedure. I've been managing pain relatively well though. My bump has definitely grown and I feel very pregnant lately. Appetite is still quite low but my nausea is better. I'd say at this point, I'm ok but could be better.
Rants/Raves: Rave - DH has been the best and most supportive partner I could ask for during this pregnancy. I don't know what I'd do without him. I feel incredibly lucky.
Questions: Anyone else ever have to go under anesthesia during a pregnancy and have everything go smoothly? I could use some positivity.

Upcoming Appointments or Results: just had my second anatomy scan to try to get better spine pics. I think they got most of the images they needed except for the very bottom because his butt was all the way at the bottom of my uterus and he refused to move lol. Waiting to hear from my midwife if they want to try again or if what we have is good enough.
How are you feeling?: pretty tired but overall good.
Rants/Raves: rants: definitely getting winded more easily, I had to walk up a steep hill the other day and it took me way to long to recover lol
raves: we got an ac installed this year and it has been sooo nice at keeping me cool
Questions:
My neck muscle is bothering me a lot and I'd normally take a lot of Motrin but I can't so 😩

Upcoming Appointments or Results:
I have a regular checkup and glucose screening next week. Lots of pt appointments to try to sort out my SI joint pain
How are you feeling?: my back hurts. I’m an emotional wreck can’t manage to keep my house clean or get work done or feel like I’m doing a decent job of entertaining my 18 month old son
Rants/Raves: see above 👆🏻. Raves: going to the lake is awesome. I’ll be moving out of Minneapolis soon bht I’ve gone to one of the lakes in town a few times in the last couple weeks and it’s been great. I guess I’ll miss it here a little.
Questions: not that I can think of
