Ya know what’ll get you to nest and purge and clean all the things? Lose / misplace your child’s birth certificate and social security card 🤦🏻♀️

I really want to nest, but my energy level sucks. So I mostly just talk about all the stuff I want to do and do very little of it. Luckily MH is starting to nest, too, so he's motivating me to actually get stuff done. I'll be so glad to have DD's room sorted out at least. Next project is to go through and get rid of a ton of baby clothes we don't need. This is where I am... I'd love to nest - but I'd rather just stay on the couch instead, lol. I'm glad we got a lot of work done towards getting the nursery done in second tri when I actually had some energy. I kept thinking how crazy early we were, but now that it's third tri and I have no energy, I'm glad I at least have the major stuff done. I mostly need to keep washing/inventorying all the existing baby things we have now like sheets, bibs, swaddle blankets, clothes, etc. and make sure we have a relatively decent stockpile to at least get us going once baby is here.

I just got great news for the first time this pregnancy! My placenta moved! It’s now only considered low lying. I almost cried in the office. They didn’t seem confident that I’d be part of the 5-10% chance they gave me, but I was. I’m so freaking happy.

The MFM thinks it will move a bit more so I can have a vaginal birth. I am so relieved. All the stressing for nothing. They will check again in 4 weeks to be sure.

Hey everyone! I'm trying to jump back in after being MIA for awhile.
I feel like I've reached the stage in pregnancy where sweatpants seem like a reasonable item to wear 24/7. 😂

Haha I almost exclusively wear dresses at this point because I can't be bothered with pants. Hopefully it doesn't get too cold before this baby arrives or I'm going to have to figure something out.

I’m very sad that the baby won’t be here at Halloween (most likely) because JUST LOOK AT THIS ETA I stole that from the GD target thread

Can I borrow some of you nesting ladies please? My closets and pantry need the love that I only give my couch.

Dr. Cox, we actually went to Target tonight to pick out DS' costume. Amid the three year old indecisiveness (he finally settled on Harry Potter/wizard), I was looking at the infant costumes and being just a little sad this kiddo won't be a tiny little smushy baby to put in a costume - he'll be almost a year old. BUT, I am so, so, SO excited for brother costumes next year!

Apparently I've reached the point where I can't breathe brecause she's smooshing my diaphragm while simultaneously trying to painfully burrow out the exit.

This heartburn sucks. Had to level up my pillow situation MOTN to give myself an incline because it was so bad. And the pee cramps- when I have to pee, especially at night, my whole belly cramps up, and my lower back/hips, so I end up hobbling to the bathroom, and then it goes away once my bladder is empty. And nausea is back at random points. 5 weeks, 6 days till my due date and giving birth is starting to look like a good time.

Dr. Cox, I'm so torn about Halloween costumes! My due date is the day before, but DD was late so I'm not assuming baby will be here, but I want to have something prepared anyway because Halloween is my favorite and I'm not skipping dressing up. Thinking I'll do BB-8, with a felt/fleece belly piece that I can use over a carrier if baby comes on time/early, and I'll try and find or make a newborn BB-8 hat and maybe decorate a onesie. We're planning on going to Boo at the Zoo, so I can wear the maternity version there.

I’m sending H with DS to trick or treat. I plan to lounge on the couch watching Hallmark and handing out candy. DS (3) wants to be Oogie Boogie from Nightmare Before Christmas which I’ll probably have to make. My child’s favorite characters are always the villains; I should probably keep an eye on that.

hayleysmith Amazing!! Dramaphile I was taking Zantac max strength twice a day and it was no longer cutting it. I talked to my OB and she gave me a prescription for something stronger. If you aren't adverse to meds during pregnancy, I'd definitely bring it up at your next appointment, or hell call now! Heartburn is the worst!
