Starting us off early with a little PSA. If you’re on insta check out Small Shop Promo. Through this evening one discount code works at a variety of small shops for varying discounts. Bows, bins, clothes, toys, etc etc, there are tons of shops participating. I think it’s fun! Unrelated I have a prenatal massage scheduled for this afternoon. Hoping it isn’t awkward and it helps my sore back!!!

Morning! I have an ultrasound today to find out if there is a reason my bump is measuring so large (32 week fundal measurement when it should have been 26). I’m hoping really hard that this will just be a chance to get a few extra pictures and everything is ok. I have a suspicion that I’ve developed GD this time around. I know there aren’t many, if any, symptoms, but I’m crazy thirsty all the time and the baby might be big. I’m going to go in on Saturday to get my one hour. Then I’m going to be going straight out to eat a Boston Creme Doughnut before anyone tells me I can’t anymore 😛 One advantage to being one of the ladies here with a later due date is that I can delve into the GD thread and get lots of awesome advice right away!

Just hanging out in the hospital still. Waiting to meet my day nurse and hopefully see the Dr soon. I haven't had any bleeding or potential leakages in over 24 hrs, and I'm hoping that they will let me go home today. DH is in town for a medical procedure until around 11am, and it would be awesome if I could go home with him before lunch today.

Good luck today snowyowl and sparky85! snowyowl FWIW, I measured large with my DD my entire pregnancy. She was a big baby (9.5lb) but I never had GD. Same with this pregnancy. I’m still measuring large, and I’ve been so thirsty. And I don’t have gd. Fx it’s the same for you!

We’re going to my sisters house today after breakfast when my niece gets home from preschool. Dd has been asking to go over there all week, and my niece has been asking to play with DD so it works out.
Then I have a chiropractor apt later this afternoon

Good morning. I barely slept. In total I got less then three hours. And it wasn’t even all at once. I am exhausted. I see the dietician today and MH is working all day. That means I will be solo with G and she probably won’t have a nap. Good times. Can it just be tomorrow already?

snowyowl I’m thirsty all.the.time, but don’t have GD. My blood sugar is actual on the lower side. Hopefully that’s just a random pregnancy symptom for you. sparky85 I hope everything goes well today and you are able to go home! I bought my husband a matching sweatsuit with the baby from Roots and it came in last night. It’s so adorable! I’m going to give it to him for Christmas and tell him it’s for his paternity leave. He’s never worn jogging pants in his life so he’ll probably think I’m crazy

Gag me. Took my glucose test an hour ago. It's not that bad this time around so I'm hoping I just hyped it up. I am a tad light headed though. My office cut off is 135 so here's hoping I come under. I did fast though, didn't have breakfast yet.

They did another swab for fluids, and it was negative. I'm going home!!! I'll be back for a high risk ultrasound in 2 weeks, but I think that'll be it . Thanks so much for the kind words and thoughts over the last few days

Great news, sparky85! Sorry you had a scare but glad all is well. A friend and her son are coming over for a play date this morning, and I'm also getting DS's new dresser for his "big boy room" delivered. At noon I have an "interview" for a little WFH job where I'd do social media and advertising for a lady's clothing boutique. DS is getting a haircut this afternoon and I teach barre this evening! Busy but good day.

Great news sparky85! Good luck on the ultrasound snowyowl, enjoy the extra peak at baby! I'm waiting to hear from a colleague because I caught two of my students borderline plagiarizing. Those situations are my least favorite part of being a teacher.

I woke up crying from a really vivid dream last night about DD1. I hate starting days like this.
We have my work shower tomorrow and then leave for the mountains on Saturday. We are taking DD1 on the polar express train Monday night and I really hope she likes it.

I did not have GD with my DD but she was a big baby @ 9.3 so I'm hoping that was just that I make big babies!

TMI but Lesson learned, when you are 31 weeks pregnant with a head/sneezing cold, a fully trained 4 year old who got caught up waiting to use the toilet while I cleaned up an accident where the half trained 2 year old missed the toilet, let's just say the only pee I haven't cleaned up or changed pants for lately is my husband's. I guess out of everyone that's probably my best option 😂

I am sitting in the waiting room waiting for the dietician. It’s super hot in here. G is very tired. It’s her nap time but I didn’t have a sitter so the poor girl is staying awake. She is watching Frozen which is keeping her pretty occupied.

I have to make two cakes for DD2’s preschool carnival. I made one this morning and it looks tasty. And then I realized I’m a dumbass because I picked one with a cool whip later and that crap can’t sit out all day at the school tomorrow. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ I just finished two dozen breakfast burritos for the freezer, and now I still need to make two cakes. We sure as hell are going out to dinner tonight, I’m not cooking.

I entered the weight gain shame spiral today. I’m ready to be done haha This is me every day. Not only am I thoroughly unhappy with how much I weigh but I am just sooooo tired of having to worry about what I am doing in regards to how it will effect the baby. I have trouble putting my socks on. I hate bending down to pick stuff up. 😞 I want to be just me again not me and baby.

I worked out today for the first time in awhile & putting my shoes on was a disaster. Nothing like struggling with simple tasks to make you feel rotten :/ on top of that I’m a super-klutz so at school I’m constantly knocking my pens or markers on the floor so awkwardly bending over to pick them up. I think when we come back from thanksgiving break I will assign one student in each class my designated “pick up my stuff for me” helper lol.

sparky85 so happy you get to go home!! tiffrobot omg I’ve had a cough for weeks. All of the panty liners. I’m glad it’s not just me! 😂 Today we had a team building thing for work in the morning. We went to an escape room and it was really fun! My team won with 36 seconds to spare! The other team went over by 10 minutes and ended up needing the guy working there to go in and help them. We then went out and got pizza. I had to come into work at 3 but it’s a super short day so I’m not complaining!

Even if you don't get diagnosed, feel free to play with us if you want to eat better for the rest of your pregnancy. We won't discriminate against non-GDers!

I've had some congestion and sinus drainage the last 24 hours, I hope I'm not getting a cold. I feel fine otherwise, well, tired, but fine otherwise...
OB appointment today was quick and I got my TDAP vaccine today. DH needs to get his and I need the flu vaccine.
Today was super slow at work which has been a nice change of pace and it allowed me to work on some volunteer stuff I need to get organized for this weekend. How did I get old enough to head up a church committee?!? Growing up it was the adults who did it, how did I get to be an adult and how do I make it stop?!?!

Hey guys! I had a regular OB appointment today. Everything looked good. Starting Dec 7 I’ll start weekly appointments for the entire third tri since I’m high risk. I also found out I’ll get a growth u/s next time too.
