Re: Weekly Check In 2/6/23

  • EDD / Weeks + Days: March 15th / 34 weeks + 5 days

    FTM/STM/TTM+: FTM

    Baby is the size of a(n): Squash?

    Team blue/pink/green: Pink!

    Upcoming Appointments: Growth check in next Tuesday.

    How are you feeling?: Baby dropped on Saturday. I could feel it happen and it’s super noticeable inside and out! Makes me wonder if she’s going to come a little earlier than expected.

    Rants/Raves: Work is so stressful right now. We have a competition and a showcase this weekend which means I am working everyday from now until February 17th and several of those days will be 12-hour days. I’m kind of pissed because my boss is also pregnant and she took off to Tennessee for her birth in late January (though she’s not due until March 26th), so I’m here expected to handle everything and dance. I’m fucking exhausted and cannot wait until this is over. 

    Questions: N/A

    GTKY: What are you most excited to eat after giving birth? Sushi and tuna salad sandwiches from the deli.

  • EDD / Weeks + Days: 33+2

    FTM/STM/TTM+: TTM

    Baby is the size of a(n): Pineapple

    Team blue/pink/green: Green

    Upcoming Appointments: 34 week check next week

    How are you feeling?: Fat, sore, miserable. Awful heartburn. Ready to be done. This pregnancy was awful and I won’t miss it. I just want my baby!!

    Rants/Raves: I have the green light to schedule a 39 week induction if I want! 🙌🏻 It’s nice knowing I can schedule an end to this if I want. 

    I’m tempting fate and scheduled a birthday party for my son (oldest) at 37 weeks. Here’s hoping it goes well and baby holds off until after. His real birthday is two days before my due date so I had to do something early and do something special. 

    Questions: NATM. 

    GTKY: What are you most excited to eat after giving birth? I would say alcohol because I haven’t really restricted anything else. 
  • EDD / Weeks + Days: 35, March 13th

    Baby is the size of a(n): Pineapple

    Team blue/pink/green: Pink

    Upcoming Appointments: 36 week appt next week to check if baby’s head down and also the strep B test

    How are you feeling?: I’ve overall felt pretty good this whole pregnancy with the biggest complaint being fatigue. The last couple weeks have been harder, though I still consider myself lucky. More heartburn, more aches and pains, and ever-present fatigue!

    Rants/Raves:
    Rant: I simultaneously am trying to work as much as I can before birth and also wishing I could just stay in bed for a few weeks. It’s quite tempting, especially since my schedule isn’t as demanding unless I take on extra work. 

    Rave: I feel like we are actually making progress organizing all the baby stuff and the house itself in preparation of the baby coming (which I still have a feeling might be the end of this month). I don’t know if I’m actually nesting, but it’s making me feel better because now I’m just worrying over not being done when the baby comes!

    Questions: n/a

    GTKY: What are you most excited to eat after giving birth? I’ve had soft cheeses and deli meats like salami on the brain. I’ve had some of both here and there, but it makes my husband nervous. So I would really like to be able to just go for it! 
  • EDD / Weeks +: March 13, 35 weeks 1day 

    FTM/STM/TTM+: FTM

    Baby is the size of a(n): Pineapple

    Team blue/pink/green: Green

    Upcoming Appointments: OB next Friday for Strep B test, then moving to weekly appointments. 

    How are you feeling?: Great! I have been very fortunate and feeling well. 

    Rants/Raves: Rant, I got a new phone and even though it said I was backed up I lost all of my pictures from Nov-Jan, including Christmas and my baby shower :( I was able to recover some but not all. 
    Rave: as a solution we decided to do a last minute maternity shoot which we had not considered previously. A coworker of mine does photography on the side and has graciously agreed to help us out. So we will have some memories of this pregnancy! 

    Questions: For those of you who have had baby drop, is it that obvious? 

    GTKY: What are you most excited to eat after giving birth? Raw cheese and honey!🧀🍯
  • @wwcr17 This is my first, so I’m not sure if it’s always this way, but I felt her dropping  immediately. It was weird. I felt it happen and later in the day, my partner commented on how my belly looked different.
