When is your due date? How far along are you?
November 15th, 35w 5d
How big is baby?
Bunch of carrots
Boy/Girl/Surprise?
Girl!
Any Upcoming Appointments?
Tomorrow is the start of my weekly check ups plus my group b test.
Symptoms?
Sore and exhausted
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
I feel like time slowed down significantly the past couple of weeks. Yesterday was my birthday and even though my H tried so hard it ended up being a stressful mess (just think a bunch of little things going wrong). On a good note, we might be getting a new car!
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team?
My favorite sport it hockey and I do enjoy football. So favorite sports teams are the Phoenix Coyotes and Arizona Cardinals. I also enjoy watching the Chicago Blackhawks with H (he's a Chicago native) because they are actually good. 😂

Yup. I was born and raised in the Philly suburbs and am still in that area. I love the Philadelphia Eagles. My #1 team. All of the other major Philly sports team are up there too.

How big is baby? Too big, man.
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? NST/fluid/weekly appt on Thurs
Symptoms? Baby feels officially ginormo. Terrible heartburn. I've been waking up at night because the bottom of my feet itch so bad, so I got bloodwork done to check for cholestasis yesterday. Awaiting results.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? The end of pregnancy just sucks. I would like this baby out now please. Too much anxiety.
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team? I hate sports. But I can tolerate baseball if I have to.

November 25th, 34w2d
How big is baby?
Savoy cabbage
Boy/Girl/Surprise?
Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments?
Regular check up on Thursday
Symptoms?
Random stabbing pain, contractions, exhaustion, nausea, vomiting
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
I'd like to fast forward the next 3-4 weeks. That'd be great.
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team?
I prefer going to live sporting events rather than watching on tv. I love soccer and get really into the World Cup. I used to LOVE football...until it got politicized. And now, honestly, I can't even watch it at all. Sports are supposed to be a release from the shit of everyday life...if I wanted to watch politics in action, I'd turn on CSPAN.

Any Upcoming Appointments?
Growth Scan on Monday. My OB doesn't do weekly checks and if I don't end up insulin (FX I won't) there are no NST's so only 3 appointments left until eviction date!
Symptoms?
Peeing, can't get comfortable to sleep
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
GD is so odd. Things you would think would send my numbers sky rocketing haven't been and eating ice cream at night has helped keep my fasting numbers low. Who knew!
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team?
I do! I was born in Boston so am a Red Sox fan and occasionally have been referred to as a closeted Patriots fan. For hockey I am CO Avalanche all the way and basketball I am all about the Golden State Warriors.

When is your due date? How far along are you? 10./30, 38 weeks today
How big is baby? Bucket of Fried Chicken
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? weekly belly check tomorrow morning
Symptoms? Giant, hip/pelvic pain, feel like baby is going to fall out, so much peeing, heartburn.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I am so ready to be done. I mean, I could use a few more days to get things ready, but my body feels like it's falling apart.
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team? I'm a huge soccer fan, as is MH, and our team is the Philadelphia Union, we have had season tickets since 2012 and hardly ever miss a game (although this year we've missed a few). I am also a big US Women's National team fan, and the men's team to a lesser degree. I used to be a football fan, but the former San Diego Chargers are dead to me and I'm over the NFL anyway.

ladybrienne this baby is technically a Super Bowl baby according to conception date, but MH and I are not Eagles fans, he's a Jets fan and I don't have a team. Although DD apparently is, her babysitter taught her the Eagles chant and song and she is very enthusiastic in her incorrect spelling "G-E-O-S EAGLES!"

When is your due date? How far along are you? 12/7, 32+4
How big is baby? Almost 6 pounds already 😱
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? Just had an MFM appointment today and next OB appt is next Friday
Symptoms? Heartburn, exhaustion, pelvic pain, and sporadic contractions.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I am now hoping this baby decides to come on his own a bit earlier than planned so I don’t end up trying to birth a 10 pounder.
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team? The short answer is no. However, I do try to watch baseball/football/hockey/basketball with my H and not complain too much. I love the olympics though and will watch any and all sports during the games.

When is your due date? How far along are you? 11/29; 33+5
How big is baby? A head of cauliflower
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? Weekly check on Thursday. Last week my blood pressure was good, and I've been monitoring it at home as well now thanks to an extra blood pressure cuff my MIL had, so fingers crossed that the one high blood pressure was just a fluke, and the weekly appointments are just an annoying caution.
Symptoms? Baby is crowding my lungs, so breathing is hard. Bending over sucks, and just generally feeling tired/sore/over being pregnant.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? We're also getting a new car tomorrow! A Ford Explorer, which we wanted to get a 7 passenger car so that we can still drive an extra person or two besides our kids in the same car for outings, etc. I'm excited, particularly for the heated steering wheel.
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team? I'm kind of sports neutral; I won't go out of my way to watch a game unless one of our teams is about to win a championship or something, but I don't mind half-watching it when H wants to sometimes. Baseball is my favorite sport to see, especially in person, so I guess the Tigers are my favorite team.

How big is baby? Broccoli Stalk or Small-clawed Otter
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy.
Any Upcoming Appointments? Check-up on Thursday. The boring in and out kind.
Symptoms? My crotch hurts.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? December seems so far away 😓 I’m tired of feeling like a flailing, waddling, grouchy whale. Everyone here is more pregnant than me and I’m mad about it. lol.
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team? I’m not really a sports person. I used to be into NASCAR, but then my driver retired. I live in Eagles country, so by default I cheer for them. Don’t @ me. I’m highly annoyed that baseball is on TBS and ruining my ritual of TBBT reruns.

Heartburn, Braxton Hicks

Just freaking out. I’m dilated and effaced, which could mean nothing, but H is out of town next week and I neeeeeed to not go into labor.
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team?
Basketball. Playing and watching. We are huge Spurs fans, season ticket holders, and I’m more bummed than I should be about all the games I will miss this season. I don’t really care about other sports.

When is your due date? How far along are you? 11/20, 35w today. It’s my favorite milestone - 35 weeks down, 35 days to go (give or take)
How big is baby? A bunch of carrots, a kids backpack
Boy/Girl/Surprise? Girl
Any Upcoming Appointments? Growth u/s on Friday
Symptoms? The waddle is in full effect. I have to sit down to put pants on. All movement makes me winded
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? MH has been out of town since last Weds on a fishing trip. Solo parenting has gone pretty smoothly, other than DD1 having a brief stomach bug. He’s coming home tonight though!
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team? I’m a casual fan of Chicago teams. I live in WI now but can’t get on board with the teams here. Basketball is my favorite. Football or baseball I’ll watch big games on tv but otherwise don’t really care

When is your due date? How far along are you? 36w5d
How big is baby? giant
Boy/Girl/Surprise? boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? Check up on Monday and ultrasound for fluid levels on next Friday
Symptoms? I'm huge and uncomfortable. I feel like I overanalyze every ache I get at this point even though logically I know it will be a few more weeks
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I wish I could sleep! Knowing that an infant is imminent and we won't be getting a full night sleep for a number of months makes me vey sad that my body won't let me take advantage of sleep now!
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team? I enjoy watching football - my husband is a huge buffalo bills fan, so I humor him quite a bit by rooting for them and caring about their stats. I also root for Broncos because it's hard to escape the fandom here.

DD wanted to go find the orange googly-eye monster after we met him at the Union game a couple of weeks ago. |

Boy/Girl/Surprise? Boy
Any Upcoming Appointments? Thursday for my NST and I have to ask about when they will do my next growth scan since I have weekly BPPs. I assume they will just squeeze the scan into my BPP time.
Symptoms? So freaking tired and sore.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Not right now
GTKY: Do you like sports? If so, what is your favorite team?
I am pretty meh about all sports. H is a big baseball fan and follows the Cubs and Tigers. We will be moving back to an area with an actual baseball team soon after being in an area where there is no team and H is really excited about it.

My Forester is 8 years old so this is a fairly big change in terms of size but also technology. So many things beeping at me. Lane departure alert! Blind spot indicator! It'll take a bit of getting used to  |
