Weeks pregnant/Due date: 28w4d / RCS March 14 Baby is the size of a: Rollerblades FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM Team: Blue! Appointments: Thursday with OB. I did my glucose test last week and never heard back about it so I guess I passed? 🤷♀️ Symptoms: Heartburn most evenings, doesn't matter what I eat anymore. Peeing 9700 times a day. Feeling very large and today it feels like he's sitting on a nerve, my left leg keeps getting a fun jolt through it. Milestones: Can I count surviving 2018? Rants/Raves/Vents: I'm just getting so excited, it feels so close! We also have absolutely nothing done, so I should probably start painting and going through all the clothes we have... GTKY: Do you have any NYE plans? Think you'll make it to midnight? No plans. We're watching my cousin's son today so depending on when she picks him up we might go out for dinner, but I don't really want to fight crowds. I highly doubt I'll make it until midnight though since we had to wake up early to watch him. I'm already tired, 😂 Share any U/S or bump pics if you'd like: Finally took one this weekend. Ignore the mess in the background and my sexy pj pants 😂 I was too lazy to put real pants back on for the picture.  |

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 24 week today - due 4/22/19
Baby is the size of a: ear of corn
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: FTM
Team: Blue!
Appointments: 1/2 with one of the midwives
Symptoms: So much heartburn. Random puking. So much peeing. Lots of constipation.
Milestones: VIABILITY! *happy dance*
Rants/Raves/Vents: Does anyone have a pregnancy pillow they love? I tried one from Amazon and it felt like I was in a giant cocoon. Normally that wouldn't be a bad thing, but I couldn't move my arms and I felt like I was flailing all night. Not to mention it was gigantic and took up like 1/2 of our king sized bed, which meant H and the 2 dogs were sharing the other half and I felt pretty bad about that. I'm considering a wedge, but is it a pain in the ass to move it during the night? Although I guess I could get 2 of them.
GTKY: Do you have any NYE plans? Think you'll make it to midnight? No plans whatsoever. I'm excited to hang out at home with my husband and the puppies and fall asleep at 9pm watching Making a Murderer. 22 year old me would be horrified, lol.

lemondrop I have a leachco pillow, it’s huge but I love it. I turn it upside down so the open u shape is where my head is so I can still use my regular pillow.

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 24+5 / April 17th
Baby is the size of a: cauliflower
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team: Boy
Appointments: 1/10
Symptoms: Peeing. All the damn time. It's borderline ridiculous.
Milestones: N/A
Rants/Raves/Vents: I'm doing okay, the nausea seems to have subsided again which is good. It's harder to get around though, especially since DD is attached to me and wants me to go everywhere with her.
GTKY: Do you have any NYE plans? Think you'll make it to midnight? We're going to a friend's house party. Apparently it's a fancy dinner party which will make me cranky since that's not my thing, but they rearranged the entire schedule to accommodate us leaving at 8:00 so, I'll do my best to enjoy myself. DD didn't nap today though, so I'm sure we're in for a meltdown while we're there! Sorry friends. (Oh and I will not make it to midnight.)

lemondrop I use a boppy wedge and like it. I don't find it annoying to grab when I flip over, it's small and lightweight so I don't really have to think about it.

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 31/ RCS Feb 27/ DD March 6
Baby is the size of a: person who can stretch from my left hip to my right rib at the same time
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: TTM
Team: Blue
Appointments: 1/7
Symptoms: getting lots of BH now, RLP is killer, really short of breath but don’t quite want my belly to drop yet as that’s harder on my pelvis... but I do miss breathing!
Milestones: starting to nest, I want to buy ALL THE THINGS suddenly, can’t stop thinking about how we don’t have a box of NB diapers on hand !1!!1 so silly.
Rants/Raves/Vents: I’ve had a few good nights with no insomnia (touch wood) just getting up to pee, but that’s fine if I can just fall back to sleep after
GTKY: Do you have any NYE plans? Think you'll make it to midnight?
This is my third time hugely pregnant for NYE, so our tradition has evolved to ordering Thai food and staying in, and it’s great. There is a 0% chance I will even think about staying up for midnight.

I can't believe some of you are already in the 30 weeks+! So exciting!!
If history repeats itself, I'm about 7 weeks out from when I had my daughter. I hope to get a week or 2 beyond that. She was 35+2

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 27+2 with twins FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM Team: double blue Appointments: did glucose test on Saturday morning, waiting for results. They thought they'd be in today, but gotta wait til Wed now. Next appt is the 9th. Symptoms: peeing every time I cough and sneeze. Coughing only at night while trying to sleep  Milestones: Signed for a purchase of a minivan today. It's on the truck to be transported, so it'll be here by next week hopefully. Rants/Raves/Vents: So tired of peeing myself. I'm too big and slow to get up and to the bathroom in time when I cough and pee. GTKY: Do you have any NYE plans? Think you'll make it to midnight? I'm surprised I'm up now at 10:20! But my pup is begging me to go up to bed with him so I'll probably go up sooner than later. Can't believe tomorrow is 2019, my daughter's early birthday party is in two weeks (Her bday is March 23rd and I didn't want to risk being in the hospital over her bday, so we're crashing her cousins' bday party and doing a three way party). And can't believe I'll have twin boys in my arms in 10.5 weeks or less! Crazy! |

orangehibiscus, A was almost a 3/24 baby! I was induced on the 23rd and she arrived at 11:46 pm- only because the doctor mentioned that if I had the baby after midnight I'd have to stay an extra day. I was like, nope! Ha!

My growth ultrasound today was good! Babies measuring slightly ahead at 3lb2oz and 3lb4oz.
I can't believe I already have that much baby in me, no wonder I'm slowing down!

Weeks pregnant/Due date:24, April 25th
Baby is the size of a: GI Joe
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team: pink
Appointments: 1/17, follow up US for my placenta and regular OB check up
Symptoms: peeing a lot again
Milestones: viability!! also pretty sure we're settled on a first name of Flora for this little one. Need to make a final decision on a middle name. Open to suggestions if anyone has them.
Rants/Raves/Vents: the leave of absence person at work changed recently and the new person is telling me my leave will be WAY different (for the worse) than it was with my daughter in 2015, yet the policy hasn't changed...... Trying to negotiate my way through this one without losing my mind. I am very thankful for all of the records I kept the last go around, we will see what happens but I'm concerned I'm going to end up back at work sooner than anticipated with no PTO for the rest of the year.
GTKY: Do you have any NYE plans? Think you'll make it to midnight? My SIL and her husband were visiting from Maine. We played some lively rounds of Go Fish with my DD, ordered some pizza, and we were all in bed by 10:30pm. A good time had by all.
