Hi! My update is I have an outside baby. Teddy was born on June 21st at 7:59 pm weighing 8 lbs 10 oz and was 20.5 inches long. He had a rough start and I’ve had some complications as well and ended up back in the hospital. We are both home and doing well now and I will post his birth story when I have a chance to type it up.

Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canadians! 🇨🇦
Yay! I can't believe it's July!
Week/fruit/EDD: LO is 5 days old already!!!
FTM, etc: STM
Appointments: Had one yesterday. Have ti make one tomorrow (everything is closed for Canada day today:).
Team: Pink:)
Milestones: LO (I am going to call her N from now on...) slept in her bassinet. FINALLY. And it turns out she is a magical sleep unicorn like her sister. It is after 9am and she is still happily asleep.
Symptoms: Recovery is going well. 5 days out and the pain is pretty much gone for the most part (I never took anything other than regular strength Tylenol the whole time) and the bleeding is super light. I still have a belly that looks 6 months pregnant...but it's slowly shrinking. My legs and feet are still super swollen from the surgery though so I hope this goes away soon. It is uncomfortable.
Rants: SO is constantly annoying me:/ He keeps telling me what I "should" be doing when he is only here a few hours a day. I want to hit him.
Raves: N is a total dream so far. We are combo feeding since I was worried my milk wouldn't come in like last time...but it has! So she is off the tube (which is great since she started refusing it) and I gave her 2 bottles yesterday to supplement my supply and it went perfectly!

Week/fruit/EDD: 37w1d...some sort of melon...Induction scheduled for 7/15
FTM, etc: STM
Appointments: BPP/NST Tuesday/Friday (usual schedule), OB Friday
Team: Blue
Milestones: Term! Meaning I can pray for this boy to come any time now...
Symptoms: Pelvic pain, lightning crotch, my left nipple hurts. Yeah, it's fun.
Rants: I am so leaky. This happened with my daughter too. My boobs are just like...fountains.
Raves: I'm finally able to start wishing/praying for this baby to come out. We have an eviction date but I would absolutely NOT mind if he decides to come earlier on his own. I'll have my first cervix check this Friday and I'm hoping I have ANY progress so induction doesn't take as long (50 hours) as last time.

Week/fruit/EDD: 37 weeks today
FTM, etc: 3rd
Appointments: NST and OB this week
Team: blue
Milestones:
Symptoms: It’s weird, I had a 3rd degree tear and a million stitched with my first delivery. Well, I could tell you exactly where the stitching was because that area hurts so bad with the weight of the baby on it!
Rants:
Raves: The doctor wanted to induce me today, but my ILs are out of town and they need to take my kids when we go into the hospital. So we settled on an induction next Monday the 8th as long as all my labs come back ok today. So close!

Week/fruit/EDD: 39w1d
FTM, etc: STM
Appointments: Wednesday. Going to ask the doctor to strip membranes.
Team: pink
Milestones: due date this week!!!
Symptoms: pressure. Nausea, GI stuff. Nesting, barely sleeping. Still nothing too crazy with BH.
Rants: I’m consistently awake for 2-3 hours in the middle of the night. It’s really annoying. Also I don’t want to work this weekend, so it would be really nice to have a baby Wednesday or Thursday.
Raves: mom comes tomorrow. Also I’m done with my overtime shifts at work, so only regular schedule from now until baby.

Week/fruit/EDD: 32w3d/pomelo/Aug 23 FTM, etc: STM Appointments: MW last week, all good. PT this week. Team: Green AKA baby has no boy name right now so is that a sign we're having a girl?? Milestones: I've got asked if I'm due in July twice and someone said "not long now for you?" when I was waddling through a BH in Walmart (the last one I get haha). Symptoms: BH, muscle spasms, increased heart rate, minor sciatica, sore pelvis, reflux, low tolerance for spicy foods  , aversions Rants: This baby is wrecking havoc on my food plans. My taste buds have changed & some foods cause reflux. I bought salmon because it's good for you and now I can't stand the smell. DH has been making peameal bacon for freezer breakfast sandwiches and while I can eat it, the smell, UGH. Raves: Bravado came out with a "full cup" version of one of their bras so now I don't have to wait until PP to buy a bra. If anyone else gets self-conscious about their cleavage while pregnant/nursing. I tried clip on camis with nursing bras and they work. Also, the DIY nursing camis from old camisoles work too. I thought we'd all want weekly check ins but since there wasn't one last week. I thought I'd check if we were too lazy for it  |

I’m definitely having a lot of contractions. There’s still no pattern but they are starting to kind of hurt! 😱
