GTKY: If you could have any vehicle, price/seating not an issue, what would it be? Tesla, probably. Or maybe a Jeep Wrangler. I had one when I was 18, and I miss it.

When is your due date? How far along are you?: 7/17, 32 weeks
How big is baby?: Jicama
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: TTM
Team Pink/blue/green?: Green
Any Upcoming Appointments?: 32 week checkup/ultrasound on Thursday
Symptoms: MOTN waking, hip pain, heartburn, wanting to eat everything... I did something weird to my finger over the weekend- it was like trigger finger except it wasn't locking up, it was just crazy sore and stiff and swollen at the top of my palm. It's slowly getting better- I assume it's somehow pregnancy-related bc of fluid levels or hormones or something.
Milestones: Less than 2 months to go
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: Excited about the ultrasound and seeing baby's face in 3D. I dunno why I'm nervous about baby's position- I feel like he/she is not consistently head-down, and I was footling breech, so even though I had no issue with DS1/DS2, for some reason I'm afraid this one is not going to cooperate.
We're also in the process of buying a minivan/selling my old car and it is stressing me out, even though DH is doing all the grunt work. :S
GTKY: If you could have any vehicle, price/seating not an issue, what would it be? Teslas do seem cool. I'd rather have more of a luxury sedan that's comfortable and has lots of cool features than a sports car.

Symptoms: Actually feeling pretty good, other than reflux, and starting to be big!

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: Big kid has been really stressed any time we separate (including daily, for school). I don't know how to reassure her that we will very clearly tell her when we go to the hospital to have the baby.
GTKY: If you could have any vehicle, price/seating not an issue, what would it be? I'm way to practical, so I'd go for something eco friendly but fun, so basically a tesla.

GTKY: If you could have any vehicle, price/seating not an issue, what would it be? I'm not really a car person. I guess a tesla because of the eco-friendliness, but there aren't that many charging stations in these parts and I wonder how well a battery would work in a Canadian winter.

Hmm... I'm not really a car person. I just want something that holds my shit and gets me from point A to point B. And it can't be beige (too boring - I like my cars either red or blue).

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: I'm over the hospital even though it's the best place to be right now. I just wish they'd let me delay my c section by one week so we could possible avoid the nicu (at my hospital, any baby under 35 weeks goes to the nicu)
GTKY: If you could have any vehicle, price/seating not an issue, what would it be? I love my Subaru and I'm not really a car person but I also like my SIL's Acura SUV

STM
Team Pink/blue/green?:

Any Upcoming Appointments?:
6/4 - 28 week appointment
Symptoms:
I'm getting uncomfortable and the non-stop peeing is getting to be ridiculous. Also, another fun thing has been that when I wake up in the middle of the night to pee, I can't get back to sleep. Last night I woke up at 2:30 to pee and could not fall asleep again until 5am. I was up for the day an hour later. This has been happening more frequently than not, and I'm not impressed.

See my rant above regarding sleep.

bananas22 I'm curious why they won't let you go to 35 weeks if every thing else seems okay? I asked the same question. Apparently after 34 weeks, the risk of infection is greater than the risk to the baby as a preemie. Basically the doctor said they'd rather have a healthy preemie than a baby with an infection that is farther along. |

I'm sorry she will have to spend some time in the NICU, but hopefully it will be short. |
