I'll start. There are still a few of us right?

How many weeks are you? 40 weeks 5 days

What is your baby the size of? Red panda/baby that should be born already

What symptoms are you having? Fatigue, bursts of energy, mild/sporadic contractions

Do you have any appointments this week? Wednesday weekly

Rants/Raves/Randoms? Got my hopes up that I'd have a baby already. However, since I don't I now need to get the house cleaned up (again) so we can have family over tomorrow for E's 3rd birthday. I am loving how special E seems to feel about his birthday. We brought cake mix to DC today so he can celebrate with his class and he was so excited about it.

Also having so many mixed feelings about still being pregnant. Positive is the likelihood of E sharing his birthday with his sister gets smaller every hour that passes. Also, I can schedule an induction which means I get to choose her birthday. Last one, both kids will have a chance to celebrate their birthdays on Thanksgiving.

QOTW: Funnest, weirdest, most wonderful thing about your pregnancy. Looking back, the random tears. I tended to be a pregnant lady who cried if I laughed too hard and not because it was so funny. I would laugh so hard then just start sobbing. Mh jokes that if I shake too much (belly laugh) I start to cry.

The truth about baby brain. My memory is so hit and miss of the last 9 months. It's gotten bad again, I can't do two things at once. [/quote]

How many weeks are you? 39

What is your baby the size of? American short hair cat or a watermelon. Or a full term baby.

What symptoms are you having? NOTHING! Well, your usual aches and pains but nothing to indicate that labor is near.

Do you have any appointments this week? Yes, today.

Rants/Raves/Randoms? If one more person comes up to me and says "So, you haven't had that baby yet?!" I might throat punch someone. Clearly I haven't had this baby yet since I'm still sitting at my desk!

Oh, I don't know! Probably when I'm laying in the chair and my entire stomach bulges on one side because the baby is moving. It's so cool and weird!

I'm still here 😕
How many weeks are you? 40w4d

What is your baby the size of? An overdue beachball that won't pop

What symptoms are you having? Nothing. I feel less pregnant than I did a few weeks ago. Seriously like nothing is happening, not a single symptom.

Do you have any appointments this week? Induction is set for tomorrow at 7:30am

Rants/raves/ransoms? I feel like these past few weeks have dragged on forever.

QOTW: Funniest, weirdest, most wonderful thing about your pregnancy. Looking back I'd say my pregnancy was low key; I didn't have any bad symptoms and generally felt normal the entire time. Pregnancy last time was pretty much the same, yet somehow the two have been totally different experiences. I think this should be my first indication that my kids will be complete opposites.

How many weeks are you? 39+2

What is your baby the size of? Pumpkin

What symptoms are you having? Random contractions, boobs seem to have grown again overnight.

Do you have any appointments this week? Wednesday am and finally back to my ob, have seen her since 20 weeks since had a NP and then had to meet all the other doctors.

Rants/Raves/Randoms? My cold could go away now. Everyone at work is sure I'm not coming back next week, and I kind of hope they are right. Strangers are shocked to hear that I'm due any day though. Also just realized I don't like a majority of the baby clothes we have from late time, so shopping will happen regardless of sex.

QOTW: Funnest, weirdest, most wonderful thing about your pregnancy. It's been fairly low key, which I guess is great. I am very excited to find out if it's a boy or a girl. I will always associate this pregnancy with Breyer's chocolate peanut butter ice cream...since I had it most days!
