Happy Friday, girls!

[amelandre]

At 25 weeks, I still have a lunch box

Appts/milestones: FINALLY got to have my anatomy scan on Wednesday. DH was mad at me all day because he changed his mind about wanting to stay Team Green but I wouldn't budge.

Q's/C's: Only 15 weeks left! I'm mildly terrified.

GTKY: I want a homestead/small farm on about 10 acres of land. Either a very old, run-down farmhouse we can completely gut and remodel, or else build ourselves a big cabin-style house. Nothing too large, just nice and cozy and easy to keep clean. Lots of sheep and alpacas running around so I can make my own yarns.

Weeks/Fruit: 27/rutabaga

Appointments/Milestones: Had my 27 week appointment yesterday. Did my glucose screening. I have been having contractions the past couple days that were between 5-10 minutes apart, so I've been pushing fluids and lying down, which helps. Doctor said I can work but I have to go home if they come back and if they continue to be an issue, I might be looking at bedrest. Baby looks great though!

Questions/Comments: I have 11.5 weeks till my repeat c-section and I'm kinda freaking out how fast that seems to be coming up!

GTKY: Describe your ideal home (in as much or as little detail as you want) Big - I like space - preferably all on one level with a finished basement. Separate master bedroom/bath from the kids rooms. Nice sized kitchen with great counter space to cook in. Attached garage.

[SassyPants150]

Weeks/Fruit: 26 - lunchbox/lettuce

Appointments/Milestones: Nothung until next week. Glucose test, ultrasound, regular appointment. Long morning of tests. It's hard to believe I'm in the final stretch of MFM appointments!

Questions/Comments: Babies have been moving like crazy. It feels like popcorn of body parts any time that I am still.

GTKY: Describe your ideal home (in as much or as little detail as you want). 4 bedrooms plus a craft room. A huge kitchen to entertain everyone, basement, and a swimming pool.

I forgot about Symptoms! Oopsie

Add 'em if you want!

Weeks/Fruit: 28/eggplant - finally a fruit that makes sense!

Symptoms: the lower back/hip pain thing has started. Last night I had to do half the dishes, take a break to sit on the ball for an entire episode of a show, and then finish the dishes. I also had to ask my husband to massage my lower back, which he pointed out that I'd never done before. Normally I'm a mid-back bra area massage person. Ugh.

Appointments/Milestones: I have my last once-a-month appointment on Monday. This time I actually have something to ask the doctor. What can I do about that weird muscular (I think?) pain on my upper abdomen? Please don't say pregnant belly suspenders, though I have a feeling that might be the answer...

Questions/Comments: Little dude moves always. I can't get a break during the day when I'm trying to work. At least he still lets me sleep.

GTKY: Describe your ideal home (in as much or as little detail as you want): Yes! I'm so excited to not live in a tiny apartment anymore. My ideal home is a middle-biggish 3-4 bedroom 2.5 bath two-story house with a basement in the suburbs with a yard big enough for kids and a dog to play in. It would have a two-car garage (doesn't need to be attached, but since I envision myself living somewhere snowy, there should be covered parking). Kitchen would have ample counter space and a gas range, and there would be one room on the main floor designated as a kid-free study/office for us to work at home.

Weeks/Fruit: Week 26/Following amelandre's awesome chart, I am at a lunchbox size. Which makes sense because I'm always hungry.

Symptoms: Heartburn, dizzy spells, low blood pressure

Appointments/Milestones: Missed my GB appt I got to schedule another one. Boo.

Questions/Comments: I'm regretting the third floor, vaulted ceiling apartment I live in. Damn you stairs!

GTKY: Describe your ideal home (in as much or as little detail as you want)

I would love a big white southern home with blue shutters and doors. Also, a wrap around porch with ceiling fans you I can serve sweet tea to my guests. I want trees in the back yard so the boys can climb and play pirates in their tree house. Two floors, 5 bedrooms (4 on the 2nd floor and a guest suite on the first). A foyer with enough space for a table to keep the flowers that DH always brings home. A small library/office to keep all my books and so the boys can do their home work. Kitchen with white cabinets, glass grey back splash, farmers sink, gas stove, an over hanger for hanging pots and pans above the island. A wine cooler in the island, and a big window looking out into the back yard so I can watch the kids. I also want a breakfast nook for the kids.

There's more but I feel like I'm rambling now.

Edit: Cause @blackpearl08 wasn't convinced that I was 16 weeks.

[tomatopie]

Weeks/Fruit: 25 weeks

Symptoms: reflux, not sleeping well

Appointments/Milestones: appt next wednesday.

GTKY: Describe your ideal home (in as much or as little detail as you want): we just bought a house in november. its not perfect, but i love that the kitchen is awesome, theres a fireplace, and the master shower feels like a spa. oh, and after so much apartment living having a two car garage is awesome!

Weeks/Fruit:
24, Cantaloupe / Ear of Corn / Baseball Mitt (you choose!)


Symptoms:
RLP, random cramps, there is definitely a kicking baby in there!


Appointments/Milestones:
I have a routine exam this coming Tuesday


Questions/Comments:
My biggest craving is Mexican, and I think I have eaten enough in this pregnancy to last me a lifetime.


GTKY: Describe your ideal home A 5 bedroom two-level with a large master bedroom/master bath with jacuzzi tub, a finished basement, large backyard and awesome BBQ deck, cathedral ceilings throughout, big windows in the kitchen and a huge kitchen area with a grilling master island.

[veganontuesdays]

Weeks/Fruit: 24 weeks! Rocking that baseball mitt (that just seems so huge...)

Symptoms: Heartburn and my body is sore.

Appointments/Milestones: Next apt is in a week.

Questions/Comments: H and I are just enjoying his gymnastic routine every night. We lay in bed and just watch/feel him do his thing. Pretty damn cool.

GTKY: Describe your ideal home: We're pretty easy to please. Doesn't have to be huge, we like the look of flipped homes, fenced in backyard for the dog, and enough space to where we can entertain our families for Christmas if we want. If I was trying to get real fancy I would want a big wraparound porch with a swing to have my coffee or read.

[veganontuesdays]

lgsdesigner you have confirmed that I want Mexican for dinner tonight. Chips and salsa please!

veganontuesdays - YES! I am having Chipotle for lunch, but really want to go to an authentic Mexican joint and destroy some grub!

Weeks/Fruit: 24W Cantaloupe

Symptoms: heartburn and lower back aches

Appointments/Milestones: I have my next growth scan on Tuesday, fingers crossed that she is gaining as baby girl was slightly behind at my last one and DD was IUGR.

Questions/Comments:

GTKY: Describe your ideal home (in as much or as little detail as you want)We actually just built our home in 2/2014 and I love it, just wish I would have gone with 4 bedrooms vs 3. Its about 2600 sq foot, open concept and dark hard wood on lower level; dark kitchen cabinets with granite counter tops. 3 bathrooms all dark cabinets with granite counter tops. I love our huge farmers porch as well and we have about 2 acres which I don't exactly love, but DH does! haha! We just got word that we are probably being transferred 2 hours away so will have to move. I was hoping that we would be transferred back to the Midwest if we got transferred.

Happy Friday, girls!

26 weeks, butternut squash

Starting to feel very large and uncomfortable. I didn't hit this point until closer to 34 weeks with my other kids so this pretty much sucks.

26 week appt last Monday. Everything is great. Measuring on track, baby's hr was 140s just like big sister's was and like it has been every appointment. I also had a chiro appointment on Tuesday and she did about 5 different adjustments. I haven't had any sciatic pain since then so yay. My next MW appt is in 2.5 weeks for my glucose test. I'll be 28.5 weeks.

Dream house: one level, 4 bed, 3 bath, semi open floor plan, three car garage, sunroom, big deck out back with a huge yard and privacy fence.

[scattered]

Weeks/Fruit: 27, according to the Ovia app, she's a bunch of bananas 

Symptoms: none 

Appointments/Milestones: not until next week

Questions/Comments: I feel huge. I want to do HDBD but I'm kind of apprehensive about posting online, in such a public forum. 

GTKY: Describe your ideal home (in as much or as little detail as you want): I'm pretty satisfied with what we have, though I wish our basement was two bedrooms instead of one and we had a privacy fence.

[queenrichie]

Weeks/Fruit: 26 weeks. Head of Lettuce or Butternut Squash

Symptoms: Heartburn!!

Appointments/Milestones: THIS WEEKEND: I am finally going to my baby's (sex) reveal party! I have been waiting so patiently to find out if my babes is a boy or a girl. I cannot wait.

Questions/Comments: none

GTKY:
We are pretty happy with our new place!! However, it would be nice one day to buy a home on a larger property. Vancouver BC's housing market is the second most un-affordable in the world. With that being said it is hard to buy a home with a decent sized yard. One day we will get there!

[Cornflakegirl]

Week/fruit : 28, an eggplant

Symptoms: congestion, tired, non stop bathroom breaks, I'm also feeling huge at this point!

Appointments/milestones: I have my regular appointment on Monday. LO kicks and jabs are packing some punch these days!

QTKY: I actually really love our home, but if I had my pick I would live in a large, farmhouse style house on 5 acres or more. There would be a pond or lake near by and I would have lots of animals running around.
