How far along are you?: 35,5
How big is baby?: A liter of mountain dew. I'd guess he's probably about the size of my DD when she was born 5lbs, 4oz.
Any upcoming appointments this week?: NST, cervical check, and GSB tomorrow.
Any new symptoms or changes?: No, I'm doing ok.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: This kid MOVES. In contrast DD was a chill fetus. I can't believe some of the things I've seen my belly do!
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume? I used the belly to do a pretty cute Pooh Bear. DD is piglet and MH is Tigger!

How far along are you?: 35 +4
How big is baby?: big.
Any upcoming appointments this week?: I had one yesterday. The doctor straight up asked me what day I wanted to be induced. I still haven’t decided. Next week is cervix check, GSB, growth ultrasound, and bloodwork. Weeeeeee
Any new symptoms or changes?: I’m just uncomfortable and I feel like my hips are going to break apart.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: H is nesting. Save me.
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume? We aren’t big Halloween people. We live on a busy street so we rarely even get TOTers.

How far along are you?: 33.5 wks
How big is baby?: probably like 4.75# or something
Any upcoming appointments this week?: not this week. Next Monday
Any new symptoms or changes?: Total TMI warning. I feel like most women have problems with constipation, but I have the opposite problem some days with this baby squirming. It's uncomfortable, but also really irritates my hemorrhoid.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: still no responses from my dr's office on RCS date. 😕
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume? I had aspirations of doing something with DD who is a kitty, but nope. luckily still have a skeleton shirt with a ninja skeleton in the belly.

How far along are you?: 35w 2d
How big is baby?: pineapple
Any upcoming appointments this week?: None this week.
Any new symptoms or changes?: No new symptoms. My sciatic nerve has been so much better. And I have actually slept pretty decent the last few nights.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: Well my itching has been out of control. So I mentioned it to my doctor. He told me it's either PUPPS (which I didn't think I had any rash) or cholestasis. So I had additional blood work to rule out the cholestasis. Unfortunately, I'm in Maine and we just had that terrible wind storm that knocked out power and caused flooding for most of the state. I have had the last two days off from school. My power is back but not cable, internet, or phone. The location of the hospital was hit pretty badly. I'm going with their no news is good news philosophy and maybe it's just PUPPS after all.
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume? I'm dressing up with my two fellow third grade teachers. One is ariel, the other flounder, and I'm Ursula.

It’s chilly here so H is keeping the front door closed. Our light is on but we have had no trick or treaters and we have like 3 boxes of full size candy bars. I’m like, about to cry because kids keep skipping our house. Stupid hormones.
Edited:
I just legit cried because we didn’t get any trick or treaters. Suggestions about what to do with all this candy? Because we are not eating all of it.

I've heard of some that collect candy from kiddos and send them to deployed servicemen and women. |

How far along are you?: 33w4d
How big is baby?: celery
Any upcoming appointments this week?: Thursday is the 34 week visit. We get an ultrasound at 36 weeks to check size and positioning.
Any new symptoms or changes?: Nope, these past few weeks I've been so busy time is flying by.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: It stinks trying to figure out childcare for my DD. If I go into labor during the day, no problem, but if it's in the middle of the night again, I'm not sure what to do - no family nearby and most of my friends have small kids themselves so they can't just come over. I think we're gonna fly my sister out here and hope DS decides to be born more or less on time so she can watch her. It's hard to plan for when so much is unknown.
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume? My DD requested to be Minnie and that I be Mickey this year, so I was an 8 month pregnant Mickey.
Poof!

How far along are you?: 33w, 5d How big is baby?: Honeydew (WTE) / Junior tennis raquet (Ovia) Any upcoming appointments this week?: Tomorrow, just a quick in/out. 36w appointment is 11/15, will have sono for measurements and positioning. Hoping my Mom will be in town for that one (she's been desperate to see a sono). Any new symptoms or changes?: Nothing really. Bending over isn't fun. I ate a big Halloween cookie at lunch yesterday and someone was moving around so much after it I was able to get video of my stomach moving for my mom. Very weird, watching your own belly move! Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: Last night's hormone fueled sadness over lack of trick or treaters. I like, didn't even want the leftover candy, which is sign #1 something's not right lol  GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume?: I didn't dress up yesterday but we had our office Halloween party last week and I resurrected my Carmen Sandiego costume, with a twist - I found Waldo and was having his baby. |

How far along are you?:34w 2d
How big is baby?:baguette batard
Any upcoming appointments this week?: nothing until the 13th
Any new symptoms or changes?: insomnia just bc I can’t get comfortable in bed! But lately I’ve been napping with DD which helps the fatigue
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: now that it’s November I am really feeling the pressure of how little I have done for this little lady. Last week I got most of the clothes washed but I still need to get the gear out and make sure it’s clean, put the changing table and the bassinet together, and pack my hospital bag.
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume?
I have a jacklantern belly shirt I wore yesterday (but I forgot to take pics) and a ‘kick or treat’ shirt I’ll wear Friday. Our ToTing was postponed bc of a storm!

How far along are you?: 32w1d
How big is baby?: Armadillo
Any upcoming appointments this week?: Nope, next week.
Any new symptoms or changes?: Just very bulbous. Rolling over in bed is hilarious and picking things up off the floor is no longer an option.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: I want to know when nesting will hit because I have a ton of shit to do. Does it just not exist when you have a toddler that wears you out? HOW AM I GOING TO GET EVERYTHING DONE!?
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume? No, I debated being an avocado but... lazy.

OMG ITS NOVEMBER SOME OF US ARE GOING TO HAVE BABIES THIS MONTH WHAAAAAAAT?!
How far along are you?:
35+1
How big is baby?:
no clue
Any upcoming appointments this week?:
nope!
Any new symptoms or changes?:
Stiff, sore fingers. The general swelling in my hands has gone down but my knuckles are super inflamed and giant - rings don't ever come close anymore. Feeling less movement the last couple of days. Trying not to worry too much since I can feel hiccups frequently, and if I really poke at my belly I'll eventually get a kick back. But nighttime/overnight dance party does not seem to be a thing anymore and I miss it.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?:
Nursery is almost done - hopefully I'll have a picture to AW soon.
GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume?
I'm a Halloween hater, so nope! I did bundle up to hand out candy to the neighborhood kids though.

Do people do those kinds of things? Like bring treats for the nurses on the L&D floor? I thought about having one of my parents stop and get a box or two of donuts when they come visit. |

I brought the two boxes we opened in anticipation of kids to work today, so hopefully most of that will go. Saving the unopened box for the nurses isn't a bad idea - thanks! I don't know why I was so emotional about this last night. Yay pregnancy? (TBH I'm also slightly mad at H because he knows how much I love Halloween and I'm annoyed he couldn't put on some sweats and suck it up that the room would be colder for an hour. At the same time, our front light was on, which was the universal "We're handing out candy" signal when I was a kid, so I don't know why people didn't just knock...) |

How far along are you?: 35w1d How big is baby?: Big - I have no idea and I'm too lazy to check apps at the moment Any upcoming appointments this week?: Nothing until Monday. Growth ultrasound, NST, and regular appointment. Now starting weekly Any new symptoms or changes?: Eh. I don't know if there is any ground breaking changes. Just more and more uncomfortable. One weird one I guess would be past couple of mornings I have been waking up almost out of breath.... My H has lovingly referred to me as sucking the souls out of children and Godzilla so I'm going to take that as a reflection as my mood  Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: I would be completely fine if this baby came at any point now. Even though I have zero things done. GTKY: Anyone have a fun pregnancy costume? Nothing too fun. I went as a pregnant witch. |

Doc told me this morning that since I'll be 34 weeks tomorrow, they won't do anything to stop me if I were to go into labor now. Eek! I'm still hoping for 6 more weeks of cooking time, but it is definitely strange to realize we're already at that point.
