Week/fruit/EDD: 36w4d, papaya, 11/8 (RCS 11/1)
FTM, etc: 3TM
Appointments: Had a NST, growth scan and cervical check yesterday - see milestones
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Pink!
Milestones: According to my growth scan (which I know can be off) baby was 9lbs 1 oz yesterday. And my cervix was soft but I'm not dilated. Still crossing my fingers that baby stays in until Nov 1 but my OB wants me to prepare like she will come early
Symptoms: exhaustion, cramping, top of my stomach hurts where baby's butt is
Rants: I'm so done but also don't want her to come yet because I still have a lot to do.
Raves: Can't think of one right now. I'm kind of uncomfortable Debbie Downer lately.
GTKY: Does everyone have a plan in place for childcare when you're in the hospital? My mom flies in Oct 30 and can't come earlier so we are trying to come up with some back-up plans now. We have a couple options but all aren't ideal.

sarahh whoa 9lbs already! If she is that big, I'd be surprised if you made it to your due date! I do hope she holds off til your mom gets into town though.

Week/fruit/EDD: 35+4/ induction is officially set for Nov 11 😱
FTM, etc: STM
Appointments: tomorrow for GBS test, NST and BPP
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): pink!
Milestones: I was cleared for a vaginal attempt at my appt last week! I'm so excited to still have that option on the table.
Symptoms: heartburn, exhaustion, trouble sleeping
Rants: baby wouldnt cooperate during my NST last week, but passed her BPP. I'm getting a repeat NST tomorrow and I really hope she cooperates, otherwise I'm not sure my doctor will say. Also her weight is still fine, but she dropped a few more percentages since my last u/s. I'm so glad I only have 4 weeks to go, because she has steadily dropped a little over the last couple months. They estimated she was 5lb6oz last week.
Raves: despite my symptoms, I still feel pretty good and cant complain too much.
GTKY: Does everyone have a plan in place for childcare when you're in the hospital?
My parents get into town next week and plan to stay for a month. So as long as baby girl holds off coming until they get here, my dad will watch DS. If she comes before then, I have a few friends on speed dial who can take him until my ILs can get here (they live 3 hours away).

sarahh Stay put baby! Remember, the bigger they get, the bigger the margin of error for weight estimations. She may not really be that big yet. run4fun Hope your nst goes well!

Week/fruit/EDD: 34w5d/pineapple/Nov 21 (rcs Nov 15)
FTM, etc: 3tm
Appointments: shot tomorrow (hopefully my last one!)
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): blue
Milestones: Sunday was the day I delivered D (34w3d), so that feels good to get past. My RCS is one month from today!
Symptoms: emotional! Heartburn.
Rants: my shot supplier hasn't called in a long time...I am technically supposed to get them up to 36 weeks but I only have one left. My doctor said stopping one week earlier is NBD and I'd definitely like to avoid the pain of it, but I also know I'll feel really guilty and responsible if I go into labor early and I skip it. Also, still need to find time for family to get flu shots...
Raves: still feeling pretty good
GTKY: Does everyone have a plan in place for childcare when you're in the hospital?
My mom will come down the day before my RCS and stay for a week. If anything happens early, I'd call my bff. I have another friend who could take T during the day if he wasn't at school because our kids are on the same schedule.

Week/fruit/EDD: 33 weeks, cauliflower, 12/3 FTM, etc: 3rd Appointments: OB next week Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Pink Symptoms: SPD, trouble sleeping Rants: sarahh I am also an uncomfortable Debbie downer. Plus our routine is thrown off this week and it’s messing me up- DD is on fall break all week, DS has half days Thurs/Fri, and yesterday was a holiday. Whyyyy. Raves: I got to spend some time in the in-laws’ pool Sunday and it was magical. The water was pretty cold though so it probably won’t happen again. GTKY: Does everyone have a plan in place for childcare when you're in the hospital? Well, my ILs are 4 miles away so we’ll have them come over when it’s time to head to the hospital, but they aren’t really involved with the kids so we’ll have to leave detailed instructions about their schedules and what-not if it happens to be a school day. Ideally this baby will make a Thanksgiving debut and my mom will be here (she’s MUCH better handling the kids). Ugh, I wish she lived in town.

Week/fruit/EDD: 31/winter squash?
Appointments: Soon, again. I feel like I'm there all the time now lol
Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): pink!
Milestones: mmm. I got my registry completion coupon? I made registries set to private solely for the coupons, but I still haven't bought like anything. Does anyone know if Britax seats might go on sale anywhere?
Symptoms: Fatigue, heartburn, swelling
Rants: Poof
Raves: I'm finally seeing a little progress in our house projects, so I hope to keep that momentum going.
GTKY: Does everyone have a plan in place for childcare when you're in the hospital? Not really. My honest hope is that I can wait to go in to the hospital until school starts or something. Maybe have a friend do pick up. Involving family didn't really go well last time.

teatime Last time I was in target they were doing a “spend $100 on baby gear get a $20 coupon” or something like that. Not sure if there’s any car seat specific sales coming up, though. I’m also still in the market for one and was planning to use the registry coupon towards that purchase.

Appt went well. Scheduled RCS for Dec 26th. Only 11 weeks left. I'm still measuring big (2.5 weeks ahead) this will be interesting.

My NST was a bit wonky again yesterday, so I got sent to L&D for extra monitoring. I wasnt surprised but thankfully everything looked ok. The deemed baby is just too active for the NST but she looked good.
