When is your due date? How far along are you? 9/20, 25w4d
How big is baby? Cauliflower / Napa Cabbage
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Blue
Any Upcoming Appointments? Not until June 29.
Symptoms: Tired, Braxton Hicks, some swelling in my feet/ankles/calves some days.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? We finally really started talking names over the weekend and I feel like we're starting from 2 very different points. I don't remember DS's name requiring much discussion - I found it, MH liked it, and I still love what we picked for him, but I feel like my suggestions and MH's suggestions this time around are very different styles.

When is your due date? How far along are you? 9/5, 27w
How big is baby? Camping lantern
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Blue
Any Upcoming Appointments? Next week gd screening, I’m trying to figure out when my appointments become more than monthly... will ask at next appointment
Symptoms: insomnia, painful gas, my skin is acting up a bit, I look terrible and tired, hot flashes, round ligament pain, back and hip pain, I bought a grippy mat for my shower bc I don’t trust my balancing skills at the moment
Milestones: 3rd tri starts Wednesday, nursery is painted, I put in the order for my breast pump.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I had my follow up ultrasound to look at baby’s kidneys and everything checked out in normal range so no more follow up ultrasounds. A great relief. It was very fun to see him, he looks big and she took some neat 3d shots of his face. I cannot believe how much he looks like my first. I’m getting so excited and emotional about his arrival, I want him here yesterday. She also double checked that it’s a boy... it is still a boy.
I feel like I have to sort through baby clothes again to see what new stuff I want to splurge on, we have so many clothes leftover. I have to plug in the damned swing to see if that works, clear out the closet in the nursery- it’s been kind of a catch all for stuff. So much stuff.
I’m convinced I have GD and I want to get my test over with. My symptoms are extreme thirst and the hot flashes I feel after eating certain types of food (high carb, unhealthy) the correlation is just weird to me. Doesn’t feel right.

mirabelle - I'll have my next monthly appointment at 28 weeks, then jump to bi-weekly starting at 30 weeks. I'll go bi-weekly from 30 to 36 weeks then weekly until I deliver. If I go past my due date again I end up with check-ups, u/s, and possibly NSTs all in the same week.

I think that’s what my office does too, but it seems surreal how fast it’s coming up so I’m trying to talk myself down in case I have one more monthly. Once those bi weekly appointments start time just flies. I’ve never had 3rd tri in the summer, but I kind of like it because I’m so distracted by summer obligations.

Hard to believe a number of you are SO close to third tri already!! 😁 It's exciting!
I go back and forth between "Omg, I still have 15 more weeks of getting bigger...." and "Omg, I only have 15 more weeks to get everything done and ready!" It feels like a long time and not much time all at the same time!

When is your due date? How far along are you? 9/17- 26 weeks
How big is baby? Slow loris
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Green
Any Upcoming Appointments? Probably doing my glucose test on Wednesday, EKG for baby a week from today, and OB appointment next Wednesday.
Symptoms: heartburn! It's so painful and making me really nauseous. Bloody noses, feeling big, it's hard to tie my shoes 😞
Milestones:
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? It's difficult with all my appointments because I can't take DD so I'm struggling to find people to watch her. My family lives about 20 minutes away and they are really stepping up and helping me, but towards the end when I'll be having NSTs and ultrasounds more often it could get a little tricky to find care for her.

Also booked my mandatory birth center tour, so I guess this is really happening! Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I just hurt. And my 2 year-old is giving me so much cheeky shit, like he knows I can't physically grab him when he runs away

getdownplease - You're 3rd tri by my math! Some site/drs use 28 weeks (I believe this is more developmentally-based as opposed to time-based) but I always go by 40 weeks divided by 3 = 13w3d for 2nd tri and 26w6d for 3rd.

getdownplease I hate that no news is good news stuff. Tell me the news either way so I can stop guessing!!! Omg this. I had a blood test that came up with a weird antibody in first tri. They made such a big deal out of it. I had to get my blood redrawn and sent to a blood bank in Utah to get tested. I still had to call the office to get results after worrying about it for a week. Turned out to be nothing, but that was a terrible week.

How big is baby? Spaghetti Squash
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Pink
Any Upcoming Appointments? Not for a few weeks
Symptoms:Terrible breaks outs all over my face, neck and back. It was the same with DD so I'm guessing it will all go away after delivery again. It just sucks because my skin is usually very smooth.
Milestones:So much movement and I finally looked when she was having a dance party last night and saw her movements all over my belly. It's the best!
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I'm not looking forward to going through the things I packed up from DD to set up this nursery. I wish I did a better job of packing it all up and labeling the tubs and boxes. I think I will start on that stuff next week.

How big is baby? Cauliflower or Napa Cabbage
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Team Green
Any Upcoming Appointments? Not until the end of the month.
Symptoms: Still some pelvic pain going on. It's getting better though. Constipation. Heartburn here and there. Moodiness. Feeling big.
Milestones:
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? It's getting more difficult to grip enough skin/fat on my belly for my injections. I have to hunch over already to help make more chub. Baby has started kicking most every time I'm doing the injection and I don't like it. I have this irrational worry that baby is going to kick into the needle... I don't actually think this is possible. But still! Ugh. I also had this fear with DS.
