1. How far along are you? 35w4d
2. How big is baby? Bunch of carrots, kids backpack, or mini lop rabbit
3. Team: blue
4. Symptoms: Itching, heartburn, vomiting, loss of appetite (despite which my weight gain is crazy for some reason), and pain. So much pain
5. What/when is your next appointment? Tomorrow. Both high risk and OB. I'll find out what's going on with my liver enzymes and book my c section (finally)
6. Questions / concerns / rants: I'm just feeling miserable and somewhat depressed. I keep getting myself worked up over the itchiness and then I vomit which makes me feel even worse. If it's not ICP, I'm going to see if they can give me an itchy pill because I really can't stand it.
7. GTKY: If you were required to go to school to get a(nother) degree, what would it be? Nursing or biology, maybe nutrition. This is why I didn't go in the first place. Too many things that I'm interested in.
8. Show us that bump/baby! No pic this week.

1. How far along are you? Or how old is baby? 3w 1d 2. How big is baby? 10lbs as of last Friday 3. Team: Blue 4. Symptoms: Fatigue, some pelvic pain 5. What/when is your next appointment? PP visit June 20th 6. Questions / concerns / rants: L is showing some signs of colic. It'll be a few more weeks before I'll know for sure, but our evenings have been lots of discomfort and tears. 7. GTKY: If you were required to go to school to get a(nother) degree, what would it be? I would either get my advanced degree in psychology (I did a dual bachelors with education and psych, but never did anything with the later) or a degree in math. I always loved/was a strong math student, and it would give me a lot more job opportunities than just my education degree. 8. Show us that bump/baby!

1. How far along are you? Or how old is baby? 39 weeks! 2. How big is baby? The doc estimated between 6-7 lbs yesterday (by feeling my stomach). My toddler was 7 lbs 5 oz and I'm basically the same size I was with him, so we shall see. 3. Team: Pink 4. Symptoms: I'm walking like there's a head in my pelvis... 5. What/when is your next appointment? Had one yesterday, next appt. is Monday. I haven't had a cervical check yet, but I might ask for one Monday if baby is still in there. 6. Questions / concerns / rants: I feel like this weekend would be a good time to have a baby...I kept thinking I was going to go early and now I'm starting to feel like I might still be here next week. 7. GTKY: If you were required to go to school to get a(nother) degree, what would it be? I think maybe a PhD in sociology or history. Or, it's not really something you get a degree in, but I would like to learn more about community organizing. 8. Show us that bump/baby! I'll try to post tomorrow.

budders , you have such beautiful children! Thank you! I think they're pretty cute, but I'm obviously quite biased.

How old is baby? She'll be one month tomorrow. How big is baby? I'm not sure, a baby? What/when is your next appointment? She has her one month appointment tomorrow. I have my pp appointment next Wednesday. Questions / concerns / rants: None that I can think of. GTKY: I'm not sure. I've tossed around the idea of going back for real estate, but it won't be until A2 is a little older. Show us that bump/baby! We don’t bed share, but I leaned her against him after her feed & ran to to pee. They were both out when I came back less than two minutes later. How we spend most of our days.

Madymoiselle I’m sure the high pain level isn’t helping your BP. Hope it’s all sorted soon <3

Heeeey, sooo, I guess I'm having a baby either next Friday or the Monday after. My cholestasis is mild, but enough for the doctor to want to deliver early. She just had to check when she could get OR time. I'm kind of in shock. I guess I really need to get everything ready now.

Madymoiselle I’m sure the high pain level isn’t helping your BP. Hope it’s all sorted soon <3 That’s for sure, and the Motrin is also raising it so pick your poison in a way ... I told my H yesterday that childbirth per say really was the easy part for me, recovery sucks !!

1. How far along are you? Or how old is baby? 15 days. Half a month!? 2. How big is baby? Steadily gaining weight per her cheeks 3. Team: pink 4. Symptoms: Still recovering from csection but am down to 2 Motrin. 5. What/when is your next appointment? PP is June 29? 6. Questions / concerns / rants: L is so, so sadly gassy. I'm really trying to figure it out because she is so miserable when awake and in her sleep she cries too. It's heartbreaking to not be able to fix it immediately. I think if I can't figure anything out by the end of the weekend I'll take her to the pediatrician next week for some more insight. 7. GTKY: If you were required to go to school to get a(nother) degree, what would it be? Is there a baking degree? I'd do that. 8. Show us that bump/baby!

1. How far along are you? Or how old is baby? Morgan is 2 weeks old today! 2. How big is baby? He's a chunk. I'm guessing he's slightly over 11lbs but I dunno. He was 10lbs, 14oz last Friday and he seems bigger now. 3. Team: He's still a boy. 4. Symptoms: Some not so fun post partum stuff. Horrible cramps started on Monday, and then clots, yesterday I was miserable. My doctor started me on a med to help me finish passing whatever is left. And my tailbone still isn't right. I can't wait for this gross post partum phase to be over. 🙄 5. What/when is your next appointment? My 6 week check up is 6/28. Unless this med doesn't work. Then she will see me sooner. Baby has a weight check on 6/8. 6. Questions / concerns / rants: Nothing really. 7. GTKY: If you were required to go to school to get a(nother) degree, what would it be? Photography would be cool. I don't know how practical that is but 🤷♀️ 8. Show us that bump/baby! We did newborn photos yesterday and the photographer just posted a sneak peek. 😍 Enjoying the shade, having a picnic with big sister on Monday.

1. How far along are you? 39 weeks
2. How big is baby? A large piece of fruit
3. Team: Pink
4. Symptoms: Mostly just fatigue and light cramping. I’m just glad my hemorrhoids have calmed down.
5. What/when is your next appointment? Had one yesterday; next one is next Thursday.
6. Questions / concerns / rants: I hate so much how if I’m like 2 minutes late to an appointment the doctor will make me reschedule but the doctor can have me waiting an hour and a half without reason before I’m seen and then they only see me for less than 5 minutes.
7. GTKY: If you were required to go to school to get a(nother) degree, what would it be? I already have a PhD but I always thought it be fun to get a degree in graphic design or computer science so maybe something along those lines.

*snip* 2. How big is baby? A large piece of fruit*snip* *snort* I was too lazy to look it up. At this point as long as she isn’t a 15lb watermelon it’s all good.
