Am I the only one whose boobs haven't grown this pregnancy?? I'm not complaining because I'm already...not small...but it's weird. The giant belly makes my boobs look nonexistent, but I haven't had to change bra size. I went from a 36dd to a 38dd a few months in and haven't budged since. I kept waiting for them to explode, but they really haven't. I went from a 34B to a 34C. I really need to size up the band now. Just this past week or so it's felt so tight around my ribs, but lofuckingl to buying new bras again. Nope.

roloma, the preemie brain is real and deep. I'm really hoping it's not something you have to deal with again.

Now they’ve definitely shrunk back to normal and are also look nonexistent compared to my belly!

I'm so glad you are ok, bethers! I'm sure that was terrifying.

And yay for beefinch ! Enjoy that soda... roloma and I will be over here sipping sparkling water and eating almonds. I am currently eating graham crackers and staring angrily at my almonds. I don't want to eat anymore damn almonds. Have you tried Whisps? They are these Parmesan cheese crisps I love. 100% cheese, no carbs. I order them off Amazon but I think they sell them at Costco too.

OB wants me to go see the high risk OB for my next ultrasound, since they are more accurate on placenta placement. I'm still hoping to avoid a CS, but I just want to know either way. I hope you get the answers you need! Heard back, I'm headed in Monday morning. So at least the guessing game will be over!

bethers glad you are OK! roloma I check to make sure my water didn't break almost every time I pee. TMI but my discharge is heavy and watery. It hasn't changed since the OB made sure my water hadn't broken at 28 weeks but I'm still completely paranoid. + whatever to nothing fitting. DNW full panel maternity pants that are too tight on my bump and I refuse to buy new ones. I've been rolling them down. Shirts are too short and I just give up. I've got like 4 that are long enough and I don't go out of the house too often. It's still stupid hot here and I'm not a fan. DH is working from home tomorrow and going to take me out to lunch! Noms. I have to decide where I want to go. Then we will do grocery shopping and finish cleaning Eta boobs ... mine grew a cup/band size and have been consistent for the past few months. I got dolly Parton boobs when breastfeeding though so I'll go up at least a cup size again when my milk comes in.

I recently got a pack of 3 for $8 at kohls but I know they have them at motherhood maternity and stores like target too. I may or may not have worn 2 bra extenders to make one of my push up bras fit a couple of weeks ago 😬

I'm still wearing my normal bras right now

SIL wants us to go stay in another city that's 3 hrs away, to play laser tag for her bday. 13 days before my due date. She's turning 40. I literally LOL'd. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for staying as active as possible until delivery day. But nothing about that sounds enjoyable. Um, what? That may be a no for me even if you weren't pregnant. 3 hours for laser tag? I'm hoping her invite was more of a courtesy rather than an actual "you're coming, right?" I'm debating going about 1 hr away for a 2 hour party in a week ... where there will be no physical activity involved. Oh she really wants us to go. MH already told her it's not happening.

It feels like this kid dropped. Holy mother of cervical pressure. Some contractions and cramping but that's not out of the ordinary for me this time of night. Come on kid, you gotta hold on for 2 more weeks! Halloween baby is seeming more and more unlikely. :/

I need to catch up but JFC my two year old just fell down the stairs and she seems fine but that was awful. AWFUL. DH says she landed face first. DD says nothing hurts. She stopped crying after a few minutes when I got DH to stop using his panicked voice to try to calm her down.

My boobs haven't grown. But then again I am wearing a nursing/maternity bra already as it's so much more comfy for my boobs which always ache/throw a fit when anything touches my nipples

misskilljoy, scary stuff. Kids bounce back within seconds, I've learnt that with the bumps on the head DS has had. Glad little miss kill joy is ok though!

bethers I'm happy you're okay but sorry that you had to go through that- car accidents are one of my biggest fears. I'm glad you were paying attention and able to react safely!

AAAARRGGGHH What the fuck is happening So a diabetic midwife just rang me, said from my past 3 days blood sugar readings, I've had 3 just over the cusp normal readings so a little high. She said it's great that I passed the GTT and was low risk, but she isn't happy with the blood sugars readings. But that isn't enough to diagnose me, as blood test was great numbers. Right so???? She wants me to do readings over the weekend and brings them with me to my consultant meeting on Monday where basically everything will be discussed (induction, extra scan) and they will decide if I have it or not. No words (and now I'm even more pissed because I had a full fat coke and some pieces of chocolate last night)

misskilljoy that is so scary! Hope she is doing fine now. DS1 fell down the stairs this summer onto a tile landing. I about shit my pants but the little mark on his head was basically gone in a day. Those toddlers are pretty strong! beefinch sorry you have to deal with so much confusion. Hopefully they get it figured out. If you are right on the cusp, it shouldn't take too much effort to get those numbers under. Good luck! Thank you all for entertaining my crazy yesterday. I swear I am normally quite sane ( cnf can vouch for me) but I've just lost it a little lately. If I could speed up time and get this baby here safely, I would just to ease the nutso. I'm feeling good today and baby is throwing a dance party in there so that's reassuring. I am hoping Friday flies by so the weekend can start. My goal is to get the newborn, 0-3, and possibly 3 month clothes washed and put away. Wish me luck with that, I can't even get current kid's clothes put away in a timely fashion.

roloma, I feel you on getting clothes put away. I managed to wash the 3-6 months and under clothes and it took me three nights to fold it....but now the full basket is sitting on the bed in the guest room. I like to do my chores after DD is asleep so it makes it hard to put away stuff in their bedroom.

My co-worker who was covering me for my 10-12 week leave just submitted her notice today. Her last day is 10/13 and mine in 11/17 pending anything happening and me having to leave earlier. I am a little pissed about this. It is just she and I here locally. Our corporate office is out of FL. This company doesn't do anything fast (it took almost a year to find her). Now I am going to be left to find a train a new "her" before I leave!!! Grrrrrr And to top it off, I plan and attend the Holiday party each year which takes me from Oct to the date of the event to coordinate. She was suppose to cover that as well... now I am stuck like chuck. Sorting out my options and stressing over coverage may push me over the edge!!
rant over...

birdsofafeather, so was your CW looking for new jobs while committing to covering your leave? That's crap. I'm sorry you have to deal with the stress of this right now.
