GTKY: What are some of your favorite singers, and bands too? Prince is my absolute favorite. I am slightly obsessed and still in heavy mourning. I also love Beyoncé. Too many bands and artists to name but Prince and Bey are at the top of the list for sure.

ladybrienne that is so cute about your DS. How sweet. My son has done that as well with stickers. It melts my heart! When is your due date? How far along are you? Dec 25th, 21 weeks! How big is baby? Bok Choy Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? Baby Girl  Any Upcoming Appointments? Have a regular OB check up today. I my first growth US with MFM for end of August. Symptoms? Well. I have been feeling a lot of pressure in my pelvic area especially getting up from laying or sitting to standing. After some googling it seems that that is RLP. I never had with my first pregnancy so I was worried something was wrong! Also have been having some BH. Constipation. I don't know if I have all these symptoms this time around because I am super aware and paranoid or if I am just having a different pregnancy than last time. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? We just got back from our trip to San Diego. It was beautiful! We had such a great time and I am so glad we were able to get away for our anniversary. We also spent time in Temecula CA which apparently has a bunch of wineries. Had no idea when I booked. What torture. I went to a few with DH but I told him I'd only go if we could take a trip to Napa once I am not pregnant! Oh and while we were out there...we decided on a name for baby girl! Ella Mackenzie. I am so excited. It honors my grandmother's name and I just love it. I already bought letters for her nursery to do a flower letter thing on the wall GTKY: What are some of your favorite singers, and bands too I am all over the place. I like country, pop rock. No real favorite right now.

Any Upcoming Appointments? monthly check up in two weeks

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I feel so huge already in this pregnancy and find myself getting winded so easily. It sucks and is making it hard to keep up with my girls.
GTKY: What are some of your favorite singers, and bands too? Foo Fighters, Coldplay, Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, Elton John. Also I know a lot of people don't like U2 or Bono but my husband is a gigantic fan so I've come to like them more over the years. We met Bono outside of a concert last year and he came straight over to our girls and bent down to talk with them, it was so sweet. My oldest daughter shares his birthday so he was talking to her about how they're cosmic twins and he also took pics and signed stuff for every fan waiting outside. They're definitely good to their fans!

I don’t discriminate with music.

Lol I've been wearing the belly sleeve type on most days, it helps a bit with the pressure. And breaking out my support belt for when I'm going to be on my feet for a while. |

Oh god, so many. Off the top of my head, Hozier, Oasis, Foo Fighters, Dre, Damien Rice, Ella Fitzgerald, and Ray Lamontagne probably get played the most.

Hey ladies! BTW I am the poster formerly known as Snow, in case that's not clear When is your due date? How far along are you? 27 weeks, induction around Nov 5 How big is baby? cauliflower Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? Boy Any Upcoming Appointments? Monthly checkup and 1 hour GD test on Monday. After that I think I will transition to weekly U/S and NSTs. Symptoms? My tummy has been upset. Insomnia. Otherwise I feel pretty ok with minimal symptoms, which has ironically been upping my anxiety. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Just feeling pretty anxious. TW Loss mentioned I lost my first pregnancy between 32 and 33 weeks and I feel more and more nervous about this one as time goes by. I didn't feel this anxious with my daughter, though she was a big mover and her constant wiggles were reassuring. This baby is more chill and while he has some days where he is quite active, most of the time his movements are pretty subtle. I keep psyching myself out on his calmer days. I'm really looking forward to weekly appointments, it's been a month since my last one and it's taking a mental toll. GTKY: What are some of your favorite singers, and bands too? This is a hard one to answer. My bucket list for seeing in concert currently only includes Jonathan Richman. Leonard Cohen was on there till he kicked it last year. I recently discovered Diego Garcia and have been listening to him a lot. I guess I would probably also add Florence + the machine to my concert list. |

When is your due date? 11:26
How far along are you? 25 weeks 2 days
How big is baby? Size of cabbage
Team Girl / Boy / Green? Or when do you find out? Team Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? Not until September 8th. Will be 1hr glucose, follow up placenta ultrasound, and regular checkup. Lots going on!
Symptoms? Peeing constantly, insomnia, swelling, and hungry all of the time.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? A little nervous the swelling has started this early. My wedding rings are already really tight. Baby is wiggling and moving all of the time. I do not remember my first being like this, maybe because she is hanging out super low.

SayitaintSnow I hope the weekly appointments calm your anxiety’s some. It’s so hard always having those thoughts in the back of your mind. I still use my doppler regularly to check on LO because sometimes my anxiety gets out of control too.
