Week/Fruit/EDD: 30w 5d/ Winter squash?/ Sept 25
FTM, Etc: FTM
Appointments: July 31
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Blue
Milestones: Nursery is about 75% complete!!
Symptoms: Can’t sleep, peeing a lot, getting more tired
Rants: I have a single solitary coworker who is just like a little magnet for all my angry hormonal rage. The things she says, does, they are just getting on my nerves and I never wanted to be that bitch o’clock pregnant lady but I may word vomit in her one day if she doesn’t simmer down and stop touching my shit. I have no problems with anyone else, just this one person 🤦🏼♀️
Raves: Had the most amazing baby shower thrown by my coworkers (rage magnet not there 😂) it was so beautiful and they were so generous! Made me feel so loved!
Also leaving today for Monterey to celebrate 10 years together! Can’t wait to finally take a trip just the two of us in which we don’t have to visit anyone!
GTKY: What is a strange household stash that you have?
Wax warmer melts. I have a HUGE basket of them and I keep buying them! I’m obsessed with the house smelling good!

Ah, perfect timing!
Week/Fruit/EDD: 30w3d/a cabbage?/9.27
FTM, Etc: #4
Appointments: Just had one this morning. My next one is two weeks from today.
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Pink
Milestones: 10 weeks to go! Which will go by fast in hindsight but it suddenly sounds like a long time 😂
Symptoms: The usual 3rd tri stuff.
Rants: The weekend heat and humidity was brutal. I'm sure many of you are in the same boat but I was swelling up like a balloon after just a few minutes out there 🥵
Raves: My blood pressure is doing great despite the heat and moving! I was super worried it was going to be an issue.
GTKY: What is a strange household stash that you have?
Hmm going through all of the boxes we moved, I wouldn't say these are strange necessarily but we have a crazy amount of curtains. Like, a huge tub full of them and in basically every freaking color (exaggerated but we do have a vast amount of colors!)

Raves: I got most of the nursery done yesterday.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 28/Oct 14
FTM, Etc: TTM
Appointments: had one today, got my TDapp, next is in 2 weeks
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): pink
Milestones: third trimester
Symptoms: definitely a hot tiring weekend. I’ve noticed way more spider veins popping up 😞
Rants: We’re leaving to tent camp for 5 nights this week. Not sure if that’s a rant or a rave really. Yay no work, but oof to going this pregnant and without booze.
Raves:
GTKY: What is a strange household stash that you have? Hmmm...I did by a lot of Mrs. Meyer’s peppermint cleaner this Christmas because I love the scent and it’s seasonal.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 27, bunch of bananas, oct 22
FTM, Etc: TTM
Appointments: just saw the midwife on Thursday so not for another month
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): green
Milestones: heading into third tri!
Symptoms: thankfully still nothing really!
Rants: none at the moment
Raves: I am so thankful for central air. All my kids are fall babies and with my first we didn’t have a/c and I was so swollen and puffy and just hot and uncomfortable. With my second and this baby we had central air and it is a game changer
GTKY: What is a strange household stash that you have? I am super organized and like things neat and tidy so I actually don’t have too much of anything strange. I do have a bin of beanie babies from my childhood that I periodically dip into for my kids but that’s about it 🤷🏽♀️

Week/Fruit/EDD: 28w / tropical coconut / Oct 14(Oct 12? Baby is measuring a bit ahead)
FTM, Etc: STM
Appointments: Moving to every 2 weeks with my OB, so I have one next week, and another u/s next week as well to check my fluid levels
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): 💙
Milestones: 3rd tri!
Symptoms: Still feeling really good. Even more pee, some discomfort while working out, pelvic pressure, walking so slowly
Rants: I came home from our trip to Maui with a really painful sunburn. My mineral sunscreen completely failed me, even after applying it multiple times throughout our beach day. I've been slathering myself with healing aloe lotion and it's slowly getting better, but I've been so miserable.
Raves: Got maternity and family pics done in Maui. I can't wait to see them! He should be sending them to me in the next day or two.
GTKY: What is a strange household stash that you have? I'm actually in the process of getting rid of a bunch of stuff. I'm going to say my wardrobe because I have more clothes than any person could ever need or wear. I just got rid of more than I'm keeping, and I still have a really full closet. It's not a strange stash, it's just ridiculous. I had 4 drawers of scarves and winter hats and I am a So Cal native!

Week/Fruit/EDD: 31w2d/foam finger/Sept 25
FTM, Etc: STM+

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out):Blue
Milestones: After this week we move to every other week appointments!
Symptoms: Just the butt/nerve/sciatic pain and trouble sleeping in any position not on my left side
Rants: Sleep is getting tougher
Raves: Baby room stuff is arriving! We got the dresser and crib up! Looks like we are having a baby!
GTKY: What is a strange household stash that you have? We live pretty minimally so we don’t really have anything stashed. We do buy toilet paper and paper towels in bulk so there are usually those once in a while.

cateyes I have always moved to biweekly at the 28w mark. That’s actually the norm. Not having a 30/31w app is out of the ordinary.

Week/Fruit/EDD: Oct 3/30w
FTM, Etc: TTM
Appointments: blah. I had an unexpected NST on Tuesday (see below), and my regular 30w app yesterday. Next apps are in two weeks for a growth scan and MW app
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): pink
Milestones: 3/4th of the way there. I was also told to start thinking about what date we want to evict
Symptoms: heartburn, swelling, carpel tunnel. Oh joy!
Rants: I fell down the stairs at work on Tuesday. Luckily, I landed bottom down, but they sent me in for a NST anyway (she looked great). Everyone is giving me grief for driving myself, but what was I supposed to do? Ultimately, now my hips are killing me and I sprained my right ankle. All the paperwork I’ve had to do for work is the real pain
Raves: 9 more weeks until we can evict! The MW said we can go in right at 39w if we choose.
GTKY: What is a strange household stash that you have? Er... trash bags? I have rolls everywhere. Not to mention, a giant bag of old shopping bags. I save them and then donate to daycare for sending home soiled/wet clothes

I’m still at monthly too but mine don’t necessarily fall in pre-set/specific weeks so I do end up with a 30 week appointment I guess. My midwife was fine with 4-5 weeks between appointments earlier on which changed when my appointments fell compared to the “norm”...so my last appointment was at 26+3, my next one is at 30+4 and then every 2 weeks until the last few that are weekly 🤷🏽♀️ |
