My app says 3rd trimester is the 27th week, which would be 26+1 and beyond.

/gavel


(I don’t really care, but my body hurts all over which is my cue that I’m in 3rd tri.)

Creepy face picture from today 😂
The fluid in his kidneys are normal now and he's head down! Measuring 50th percentile at 3lb10oz, but I don't put a lot of stock in those measurements lol.

So rude @jewelofthenile! I agree that she can’t pick dibs on a name.

What a cute face pambee!

I spent the afternoon in L&D triage due to this weird pain on my side, it really wasn’t like BH or contractions or anything... mysterious but of course it went away when I got on the monitors, after hours deliberating going in from home 🤦🏻‍♀️.

Annnyways everything looks good and while I was there my doctor decided to bump my c section up a week (to 38 weeks) so if all goes to plan, baby’s birthday will be Feb 20! That’s so weird to know. I made it to 38+2 with D2 so I think there’s a good chance I’ll actually make it to my planned c section this time.

Tlex 2/20 is a good week to have a baby! (I’m the 21st, so I know personally)

That is really annoying about the name jewelsofthenile, I’ve been trying my hardest to avoid telling anyone much about what we like

yeah i play it pretty close to vest on names too mainly because i dont want opinions before the baby is born. she went through a pile of papers and mail on my island.... I should have moved the names to like my bedroom or something i guess.

I would use the name without a second thought if your h likes it.

[Yogurt]

Tlex I'm sorry you had to go in, but I'm so glad all was fine. ❤

Glad everything is ok Tlex! Always so hard to decide when to go in, but you did the right thing just in case.

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 31w/3d, Mar 17


Baby is the size of a: coconut


FTM/STM/TTM/etc: TTM


Team: pink


Appointments: Friday!


Symptoms: out of breath, back pains. Allll the emotions.


Milestones:


Rants/Raves/Vents: I have a vbac2 consult on Friday and I am stressed out over what to do. I’ll probably make a thread for advice on that day!


IHO a friend eloping this weekend in Antigua, TTMA your wedding! Colors, drama, best song, etc (or what you'd love to have if you're not married):

We did dark blue and then peacock colors. We had some in the flowers and centerpieces. Our reception was a really good party. 😂 we had just graduated the year before and were both involved in Greek Life and the alcohol was flowing. I had some drama with my MOH making stuff up and then complaining to me. And my cousin got mad at me for her spot in the line up ?? It was dumb.

Glad everything is ok Tlex! And how exciting that your baby will be here soon. I feel like we all just found out we were pregnant and now we’re in the final stretch!

[Eames]

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 30w2d, under 7 weeks to delivery date!!! OMG.


Baby is the size of a: 2 large cabbages or eggplants. Seems about right. My fundal height measured 40 weeks on Monday.


FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM/TTM (twins)


Team: 💙💙


Appointments: Good doppler check this AM. None now until the week of the 28th. I've got an OB check then, a growth ultrasound, and my first NST.


Symptoms: Heartburn 😭😭😭 Feeling huge. Hard to sleep. Aching hips. Peeing constantly.


Milestones: Room painted, cribs put together! Pre-registered at hospital and called our DD's pediatrician to make sure they do visits there.


Rants/Raves/Vents: I feel so helpless lately because moving around/physical things are so difficult, and I don't like it. Like I want to full on Marie Kondo, and I just... can't. I don't have the energy, bending over is hard, I can barely sit up/roll over without a huge production. I want to keep these twins in as long as possible, but it's so hard to think about 7 more weeks. When I mention it to people, they tend to make a joke or make light of the struggle, and I'm like no... this is actually really physically hard. Wahhh, ok pity party over, I just need to hang in there I know. 😭


IHO a friend eloping this weekend in Antigua, TTMA your wedding! Colors, drama, best song, etc (or what you'd love to have if you're not married): Married in the fall with a traditional church wedding and reception at a country club. Color was dark red. No drama except our tuxes didn't come in so they didn't all match, but I don't think anyone noticed. Our song was Love Me Tender by Norah Jones. Really it sounds cookie cutter, but we did a lot of little touches like picture frames on the welcome table with pics of our grandparents/parents at their weddings, specialty cocktail based on our alma mater, etc. We were young, only 2 years out of grad school and had tons of college friends there, so it was a lot of drinking and dancing. So much fun.

Thanks! A few different people measured my belly while I was there and all came back with 40-41 weeks and I was like “well you totally brought that on yourself lex, by telling eames you just couldn’t imagine.”

But I’m still 100% positive having two babies inside would be owie-zowie harder.

Weeks pregnant/Due date: 29+4/March 30


Baby is the size of a: Pineapple


FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM


Team: Blue


Appointments: January 28th where I'll get my tdap shot


Symptoms: Other than a sore back occasionally,and feeling as large as a house, none!


Milestones: DH finally got to feel him give a good kick last night


Rants/Raves/Vents: I failed my 1 hour glucose test and declined to take the 3 hour. I had GD with my daughter so I'm assuming I have it again,and rather than make myself feel terrible after the 3 hour I've decided to skip right to diet management. I'm bummed about it, but I figured it would happen.


IHO a friend eloping this weekend in Antigua, TTMA your wedding! Colors, drama, best song, etc (or what you'd love to have if you're not married): We eloped in Estes Park,CO in the fall so our colors were pale pink, burgundy and off white. It was perfect!

[orangehibiscus]

You look awesome photomama2013!

I’m so glad everything is ok Tlex! My wedding anniversary is 2/20, so I think it’s a great day to have a baby

ETA: Sorry for the GD diagnosis wittyusername. Tlex and I are part of the GD thread on Jan/Feb 2019 if you want to join!

[Tlex]

wittyusername yes join us in that thread, it’s great even just to have a place to whine when needed!

[Yogurt]

wittyusername I am sorry about the GD.

I failed the one hour but passed the 3 hour. I couldn't believe how bad I felt after the test. I was shaking and in a cold sweat. It was crazy! I don't blame you for wanting to skip it.

[orangehibiscus]

Had another US today! Baby girl had both of her feet in her face (and eyes and forehead) for almost the entire US. We finally got some decent pics of her face at the very end. They estimate she weighs 3lbs 1oz. Measuring right on track at 29+5.
