Week/Fruit/EDD: 29w3d / Pineapple / 9-8
FTM, Etc: 2TM
Appointments: So many! US doppler with MFM tomorrow, doing a second opinion with one of the top children's hospitals on Monday. I'm seeing the MW every 2 weeks now and MFM weekly.
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Pink
Milestones:
Symptoms: Same as usual. Heartburn, shortness of breath, hip pain, peeing all the time.
Rants: We have so many crazy things going on with this baby. The good news is that the amnio came back normal and the MRI didn't show anything significant but now we're seeing a dilated umbilical vein and increase amniotic fluid. Baby also decreased to only 2% weight. The last report from the MFM said they recommend delivery at 37/38 weeks which is as soon as August 18 so we're definitely freaking out a bit. This is also why we're getting a second opinion just to get more eyes on everything. I swear everything I look up says "only occurs in 1% of pregnancies".
Raves: I started prepping the nursery for painting yesterday. I'd like to get paint done this weekend so we can build furniture next week and start organizing everything.
GTKY: What Things Do You Do Every Day That You Wish Could Be Automated? Yes to all cleaning but daily I would say dishes and walking the dog. Our poor dog is getting chunky because we haven't been able to take her out much lately. The constant rain doesn't help.
ETA: I can't do math. 37 weeks is actually August 18.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 26/coconut/9.27
FTM, Etc: #4
Appointments: A week from Monday, which is also my GTT.
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Pink
Milestones: 3rd tri in 2 days and I'm now having appointments every 2 weeks. Insane.
Symptoms: Tired, moody, hungry a lot, pelvic pain, BH contractions...
Rants: This pelvic pain is super uncomfortable already, which I'm pretty positive is due to her positioning. If I can't find a chiropractor who takes my insurance, does anyone have any recommendations for a support band or something? I'm not going to be able to get away with much rest for the next 3 months, having 3 kids home and with moving coming up!
Raves: Although the frequent appointments can be a lot, it do like it because I feel like it helps things go faster, for whatever reason! And my husband is such a help when he's actually home, which is great because usually by the time he gets home, I have zero energy for getting the kids ready for bed.
GTKY: What Things Do You Do Every Day That You Wish Could Be Automated? Cleaning the house. My gosh, it's freaking impossible to keep the house in decent shape right now. I'm so glad we're not showing it anymore!

babystandish,I'm glad baby's heart looks better! goldenlove, what a roller coaster! And August is so soon. Goodness. I'm glad the amnio came back normal. Hopefully the second opinion helps. Week/Fruit/EDD:24+2/Pack of oreos/Oct 14 FTM, Etc:2nd Appointments:I think I have one soon. I should check on that. Team:Pink! Milestones:V-day! Symptoms:Shortness of breath? I feel like I get so winded from doing absolutely nothing. I don't remember that with my first. Other than that, just RLP. I thought I was having BH already, but I could just be making it up in my head. It feels so early for that. Rants:Raves:I'm finally over a cold.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 24w2d / cantalopue / Oct 14
FTM, Etc: STM
Appointments: I have 2 appts on the same day in 3 weeks. I also need to call to schedule my 1 hr glucose, but I keep forgetting.
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Blue
Milestones: Viability!
Symptoms: I've been having a lot of dizziness and I've also had some really painful pressure on my pelvic floor. I'm running a little experiment, and I'm afraid it might be related to my workouts. If it is, I'm going to be SO SAD. But whatever it is, I don't like it at all.
Rants: I want a summer cocktail.
Raves: I'm so excited to be on summer break.
GTKY: What Things Do You Do Every Day That You Wish Could Be Automated? Pretty much everything, TBH. I want a clone.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 27w/ Cauliflower/ September 25
FTM, Etc: FTM
Appointments: July 5
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Blue
Milestones: Oh hay there third trimester!!
Symptoms: Nothing new thankfully
Rants: I’m getting super emotional lately, and I know it’s just hormones but I’d been doing super well and now im all kinds of weepy, like im just about to start my period. Hope it’s just a hormone surge and it’ll simmer down.
Raves: I’ve hired a doula! Super excited, and it really helps ease my mind about being able to handle labor. I’ve never done this before and neither has H, so I’m glad I’ll have someone there who has been through it many times and can assist and help me get through it and help me progress on my own.
GTKY: What Things Do You Do Every Day That You Wish Could Be Automated? Watering my plants. I know sprinklers exist but mine are broken and I don’t really have the money to fix them atm. So that leaves me with watering a ton in the summer which is no fun.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 25w4d / Head of Thor's Hammer / Oct 5
FTM, Etc: 2TM
Appointments: Bonus appointment before our trip and move on Thursday. Will get Rhogam shot then.
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Green
Milestones: Loving the movement. Told #1 there's a baby in Mama's belly and now she answers if you ask her. She tried to look down my shirt once to see it. 😂
Symptoms: RLP is no fun if I am on my feet all day or try to run. Support belt kinda helps. Random indigestion here and there. SUPER hungry the past week. Then all of a sudden not much appetite the past two days.
Rants: Nervous about finding a restroom every hour on our vacation. 😬
Raves: So glad I still feel better than many people I know at this stage in their pregnancies. I'm glad I'm luckily good at gestating.
GTKY: Mostly cleaning stuff because it's tedious, repetitive, and not fun. Washing dishes (which will be better when we have a dishwasher again), cleaning the counter, picking up toys (because toddler isn't very helpful).

goldenlove Happy for a good amnio. Hope the second opinion helps. peggyhill We LOVED our doula with #1! Wanted to adopt her into our family. I know my birth wouldn't have gone how it did (as close to my preferences as possible) without her. We're hiring another for this one.
