When is your due date? How far along are you? DD is 12/5 - RCS scheduled for 11/29. 29 weeks, where is the time going????
How big is baby? Acorn squash
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? I had my GD screen today, had my rhogam shot on Friday. Follow up with the OB next week.
Symptoms? Back pain, so much peeing (it's out of control), Braxton Hicks, lots of movement, trouble sleeping. Much gas.
I am very glamorous. Just like a walking farting flotation device. That's the best way for me to describe this part of pregnancy.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I am really trying to enjoy the last months of being a family of 3. N is super fun and truly my best buddy, and while I am so excited to see him as a big brother, I feel weepy at the thought of these days as just the 3 of us being over soon.
GTKY: What's a guilty pleasure you have? Twitter. I need to quit it but I cannot.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I really want to nest, but my energy level sucks.
GTKY: What's a guilty pleasure you have? 80's/90's pop music. And occasionally watching bad reality TV like Sister Wives.

When is your due date? How far along are you? 11/29; RCS scheduled for 11/26, 29+5
How big is baby? A pineapple, which seems HUGE all of a sudden.
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? Not until early October. I thought every other week appointments started after 28 weeks, but my OB had me schedule my next one four weeks after the 28 week appointment. Not going to complain though.
Symptoms? Feeling huge, peeing every five minutes. Baby boy has enjoyed seeing how hard he can kick my ribs lately it seems, which is as comfortable as it sounds.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I'm not sure if I shared here yet, but I passed the three hour glucose test, so no diabetes for me!
GTKY: What's a guilty pleasure you have? Eating too many sweets and watching way too much HGTV.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I got nothing.
GTKY: What's a guilty pleasure you have? Hmmmm... I love to binge on marathons of Harry Potter, Twilight and 50 Shades of Grey. Between work and today’s news cycle, I enjoy being an occasional zombie to each series (HP isn’t crap; the other two are much more embarrassing).

When is your due date? How far along are you? 12/7, 28+4 How big is baby? Coconut or 3 pounds 6 ounces according to today’s ultrasound 😬 Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy Any Upcoming Appointments? Next appointments are in 4 weeks. I’m sending all my good placenta move bitch vibes your way quijibo. Symptoms? Crappy sleep. Back pain. Lots of peeing. Third tri is so great. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I’m just so damn happy about my placenta moving. I’m not going to complain for the next week. Ok, I can’t guarantee that, but I’ll try anyway! GTKY: What's a guilty pleasure you have? I love online shopping. It’s so bad. I spend too much money because it’s just so easy to have it sent to my house. I brings me joy though and my H hasn’t complained too loudly so until he does 🤷🏼♀️. Also, it’s maybe embarrassing how many times I’ve watched HP in marathon sessions. I just can’t help myself.

F/u next week
Symptoms?
Peeing all the time. Last night I was stuck in a neverending pee cycle and I thought I would e stuck in the bathroom all night. Also out of breath a lot and hormonal AF. If I’m not crying, I’m stressed, and if I’m not stressed, I’m angry. Sometimes all 3. I’m a real treat.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
Just in super nesting mode and need everything to be done! We still have to finish the nursery and pick a name. Either H or I keep changing our minds as we have found plenty of names we are ok with but don’t absolutely love.

11/1; 33 & 5
How big is baby?
A junior tennis racquet? Haha.
Boy/Girl/Surprise?
Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments?
Growth scan & check up on Thursday.
Symptoms?
My hips and lower back are starting to be pretty dang uncomfortable. Crying a lot. I’m so tired and my sleep is absolute shit. On the plus side, I think my appetite has finally slowed down.
Rants/Raves/AW/questions.
Still anxious about DS while I’m in labor & the postpartum period in general. We asked my mom to come stay overnight with DS while I’m in the hospital, but she is a 12 hour drive away so that might not work great if things happen spontaneously. I’m also very nervous because I am afraid I’ll regret inviting someone into our space during that first week home. We didn’t have house guests for the first 2 weeks with DS and it was amazing. I’m very private and had a lot of trouble w/nursing and baby blues. I love my mom, I just hope I don’t regret having someone there so soon after birth. That time is so precious to me & this is probably our last baby.
GTKY: What's a guilty pleasure you have?
The reality show Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Making the Team.

charlotte, FWIW, I am the same way about not wanting anyone in my house right away. But my mom came for a week when we brought DS home from the hospital and it was such a huge help. I look back and wonder how we would have done it without her. Of course a lot of it depends on your relationship, but if she does come, I hope it will give you help and relief and not extra stress as well.

Any Upcoming Appointments? Ultrasound on Friday to check if my placenta has moved and to check growth

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Total first world problem, but I lost my favorite pair of maternity jeans on vacation last week. I wasn’t going to replace them this late in the pregnancy, but I did anyway. The rest of my jeans aren’t comfortable or keep falling down and I can’t handle it... I wear jeans to work basically every day.

charlotte I think it depends on how close to your mom you are whether or not you will want her there after. I am very close to my mom and she will be coming for the first 3 weeks in November in hopes that she can be in the delivery room with me and then there for 2 weeks after I give birth. I am really looking forward to having her there for support and to share in a lot of firsts with her last grandchild. However, I am also a very private person and everyone else can fvck right off because I don’t want to see anyone else for several weeks. My mom is the only exception.

How big is baby?
Butternut Squash
Boy/Girl/Surprise?

Any Upcoming Appointments?
Next Wednesday another growth US and the GTT.
Symptoms? My energy level is decreasing. I just can't move around as easily and quickly and I don't last long at doing anything physical.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Hoping I pass my 1 hr GTT. I failed with DS and had to do the 3 hour but luckily passed that one. I am trying to keep my weight under control. I gained a LOT of weight with DS between 24-28 weeks and hoping to avoid that this time. I am also getting excited and anxious with being at this stage in pregnancy. Every week is a gift and I am just waiting to make it to 31 weeks when I had DS so I can be at an even safer stage. Best case is I make it to my scheduled C-section on Dec 19th at 39 weeks but I will be happy once I am beyond 31 weeks. Can't believe how many in this group already are!
GTKY: What's a guilty pleasure you have? Trash reality TV for sure.
