How far along are you? 33 weeks 1 day
Appointments coming up? Not until next week.
How are you feeling? OK. Sore and like my stomach cannot possibly get any bigger. Nesting hardcore so cleaning/doing laundry, you name it. My body is very angry with me at the end of the day.
Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? Nope.
QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? The gang from Harry Potter ... specifically Hermoine. I feel like I'd punch Harry in the face and that nerdy characters were seriously underrepresented, especially in the movies.

How far along are you?
32 weeks, 5 days
Appointments coming up?
This week I have my dr's visit and another non-stress test.
How are you feeling?
I feel pretty good, although I have some crampiness / what the non-stress test nurse told me she calls "irritable uterus." Not contractions, just uncomfortable. Between that and feeling Baby A low / pelvic pressure, I'm getting nervous about how much time I have left.
Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments?
Nope!
QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why?
West Wing (specifically seasons 1-3). I love their witty banter and commentary. Maybe I just want to hang out with Rob Lowe.

How far along are you? 32 weeks wednesday Appointments coming up? My 32 week appointment is tomorrow. I will have an ultrasound at either this check up or the 34 week one as precaution due to my pregnancy with dd. However, no issues this time so far! How are you feeling? Good. I need to cut back on splurging just because I'm pregnant. I have a feeling my doctor may mention this tomorrow. Whoopsies! Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? If there is anything exciting tomorrow, I will come update. QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? Friends because don't we all want to be friends with them?!?!

How far along are you? 31w2d Appointments coming up? OB on Wednesday, GD follow-up on Thursday. How are you feeling? Ugh, very pregnant. I feel like I hit a wall this weekend and things just got kind of yucky and annoying. Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? Growth scan last Friday was good. Baby is growing at about 60% and has a lot of hair. He looks just like his big brother. QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? I like AnnPerkins answer of Parks and Rec, or maybe The Office. Younger me would answer without hesitation Dawson's Creek or One Tree Hill. I suppose if I thought harder I could come up with something better but I am lazy and tired.

How far along are you? 32w6d
Appointments coming up? Thursday, regular appt
How are you feeling? Still pretty good, but today I've seemed to develop some stabbing cervix pains! So I shall take it easy tonight (as if I needed an excuse!)
Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? I weighed the same last night as I did a week and a half ago, so that was a bit weird. Anyone else have that happen? I've been gaining pretty steadily otherwise.
QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? Hmm, the Mindy Project maybe? I can never think of answers for questions like these!

blabbermouth yes. I've been the same weight for almost 7 weeks now. I was gaining very steadily before that. My OB isn't concerned since he's growing well and I gained so much at the start. She said he will just take from me as he needs. I don't mind lol

How far along are you? 31+2
Appointments coming up? Next week, Wednesday for an OB check and growth scan
How are you feeling? Fucking pregnant. I'm hitting my cranky miserable phase. I am... unhappy with my current state of being. Everything hurts and I'm dying and there's nothing I can do about but have this kid who's not done cooking. *grumble*
Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? My cervix is closed, despite contractions, which is good but I've played this game before and it was awful.
QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? I'm going to say HIMYM. They're my kind of people. I would totally be friends with them in real life.

blabbermouth , My weight has been stagnant for months. I've gained like only 2 or 3 pounds since like 20 weeks. So different from my last pregnancy where I plateaued in second tri but gained like crazy first and third. Definitely not complaining. At this rate I may actually come in 15lbs under what I gained with DD instead of my hopeful 10lbs. My doctors were only concerned the week I lost weight, they don't seem to mind the rate I'm gaining, or not, at.

How far along are you? 33 weeks today
Appointments coming up? I had one today and have one Thursday. I'm going two times a week for BPPs.
How are you feeling? Large. Uncomfortable. If I talk too much, I get out of breath and lightheaded. From TALKING!!
Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? Both girls passed their BPPs today much faster than they did last week, thank goodness. I didn't want to go back to L&D.
QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? Either Friends or New Girl (my current re-binge show)

How are you feeling? Good, honestly. I get tired more easily and this return of summer weather sucks, but overall, I feel good.

QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? I think I have to go with Friends too. I love them.

Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? Not really. She did say she was pretty sure DD2 was head down so that was good.
QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? Greys Anatomy. Only because I like the show and would love to be a surgeon.

Speaking of weight, mine is down again this morning. I woke up dehydrated so I'm guessing I'm sweating it off in my miserably hot classroom.

How far along are you? 31w4d
Appointments coming up? This is my off week. Next appointment is next week Wednesday.
How are you feeling? I'm okay. Having a resurgence of first tri symptoms like nausea and exhaustion but thankfully the sciatica is better. I'm also just a tad anxious. Today is actually the exact gestational age I was when I was diagnosed with pre-e and put on bedrest with my first pregnancy. Everything's been going well so far though so I'm grateful for that.
Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? My OB offered weekly BPPs starting at 32w because my BMI was >30 at the beginning of pregnancy. But she seemed like she was only offering because she had to and said she wasn't really worried about me since my BMI was 31. So I declined just because it seems a bit excessive and everything else has been normal with baby so far.
QOTW: What cast of characters from a book/movie/TV show would you want to be best friends with? Why? The Office. I love the dynamic between Jim, Dwight, and Michael.

How far along are you? 30+5 Appointments coming up? MW next week How are you feeling? I'm just feeling large. Heartburn and pregsomnia run my life. Any updates/interesting tidbits from recent appointments? This kid has thrown me into full blown anemia. So my MW told me to start taking a B12 complex in addition to concentrating on iron rich foods. Babe was straight up and down with her head under my ribs and a foot straight on my cervix.

Haha, ok, so I can catch up then! Thanks for weighing in everyone. You are so punny! I very very slowly gained 10 lbs over 1st/2nd trimester and then gained another 10 lbs in the past 6 weeks. I gain all my weight in 3rd trimester. It varies for everyone and as long as your doc isn't concerned, I wouldn't worry too much.

Speaking of weight, mine is down again this morning. I woke up dehydrated so I'm guessing I'm sweating it off in my miserably hot classroom. I think this is what's happening to me too. Since going back to work 4 weeks ago, I've lost a few lbs. I had been up 17-18 for the pregnancy during 2nd tri, and now I'm only up about 14lbs.
