I don't have the roll call, but post all your happenings here.

M had her 36 week midwife appt yesterday. I had planned on going with her and I did but we ended up taking O with us too because she was sick. I'm really glad we switched to the midwife's office this time around. It is turning out to be exactly what we were missing with the medical practice. Fingers crossed this continues right through post partum. Things look good. M is measuring a little smaller than last time so here's hoping this kiddo is a bit smaller than O who was 9 pounds 9 oz.

We have purchased a few necessities in the past week. Car seat, bassinett and I got the newborn cloth diapers down from the closet yesterday too to wash them. We also ordered a few prints to frame and hang in the nursery. We had a friend do some artwork for O's room and it was awesome. Unfortunately she got extremely sick last year and lost her right hand and is no longer able to paint. We are still waiting on the furniture and rocker but baby won't be sleeping there for awhile anyway. I'm just feeling the need to have everything ready at this point.

9 weeks over here! Baby is the size of an olive or a cherry. I haven't been very sick at all, and I don't feel very pregnant, it makes me worried.

I have my first OB appointment on 8/1, I keep hoping and praying all is well. I'm sure it is.

We haven't announced on social media yet, we will do so after our next OB appointment.

I love our university hospital and clinics, I love how progressive they are and everything, but i HATE how hard it is to get a hold of anyone.

I'm 33w4d. Everything is chugging along just as it should. I'm definitely slowing way down though. We have a few things left to do in the nursery before I can set my urge to nest into full swing. I gave in a bit yesterday though and started stripping all of our newborn preloved cloth. It made me very happy to make some progress.

36+3 ish over here. Was doing awesome until this week. Today is day 6 of a migraine that won't die. Everything else looks fine, but I can't live like this, so the doctor prescribed oxycodone. It's not really fixing things. I'm supposed to call back in the morning if it still isn't better. Not sure what we'll do then.

Fun times! Thank goodness I'm on summer vacation. I could not be working right now.
