Rants/Raves/Randoms:

QOTW: Tell me about your dream vacation?

[cosmicav]

Weeks/Size of Baby: 23 weeks tomorrow! DUDE...

Symptoms: I feel pretty good except for this SPD. Basically, my pelvis wants to die a lot of the time, an it is a struggle. But the kid is basically a zumba instructor, so I am enjoying all the movements

Appts: Butt shot tomorrow afternoon, next full appointment is next week.

To Do's:


Rants/Raves/Randoms: I have a lot of insensitive coworkers, so that is always nice to discover.

QOTW: Tell me about your dream vacation? Take me anywhere where I can order a good pizza and hole up into a room all alone for a few hours. And then maybe go out on the town with the kid for a few hours, then rinse and repeat.

[amandamh2]

Weeks/Size of Baby: 18 weeks, sweet potatoe

Symptoms: RLP and movement, feeling pretty good overall

Appts: nothing for a couple weeks yet

To Do's: not eat all the Halloween candy? Nothing pregnancy wise right now

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I had so much fun celebrating Halloween with DS this year. He's 18 months and I didn't think he would care much but he was so excited.

QOTW: DH and I are hoping to do a very delayed honeymoon to Europe someday. We've both been to Prague and loved it so we hope to go back

[mustloveerica]

Weeks/size of baby: 17 weeks, 2 chipmunks

Symptoms: none

Appts: AS next week!!!!!!!!! I can't wait!!!!!! Currently taking bets on whether the twins are boys/girls/one of each.

To dos: plan gender reveal, nail down date and location for baby shower

RRR: I cannot find bootcut maternity jeans anywhere!!! I hate ordering pants online because they never fit. But I went to 7 stores over the weekend and can only find skinnies.

QOTW: DH and I went to Jamaica for our honeymoon. I'd kill to go back there. Sun, sand and all inclusive drinks is my favorite kind of vacation.

mustloveerica, I bought boot cut jeans from Motherhood.

[hpnegirl]

Weeks/Size of Baby: 14w, Mille-feuille

Symptoms: constant need to pee but most other symptoms are starting to subside

Appts: 16w checkup with MWs next Friday, A/S and next MFM app on 11/30

To Do's: finish unpacking from our move in mid-October and eventually start organizing and washing DS's old stuff for DS2

Rants/Raves/Randoms: my boobs are huge and hurting again, so I'm betting they're about to grow another size 😓 I miss my small boobs

QOTW: Tell me about your dream vacation? I don't really have one. I'd like to go to Ireland one day but with my H's and mine work, traveling out of the country becomes a pain

I'll have to try there. We literally have zero maternity stores here. The closest motherhood is an hour away. Wtf? How's a pregnant lady supposed to find pants?!

I found full panel bootcuts at Target. I thought they were pretty comfortable and fit well.

[kartish]

Weeks/Size of Baby: 26 weeks, bowling pin

Symptoms: right now I'm feeling pretty lucky, things have quieted down on the symptom side other than walking slower and tiring easier

Appts: Tomorrow

To Do's: almost everything still. Our nursery is hinging on our basement remodeled unfortunately so it's not going anywhere at the moment

Rants/Raves/Randoms:

QOTW: Tell me about your dream vacation? A cruise across the Atlantic Ocean would be awesome, followed by a tour of a Europe.

Top of my bucket list is a South African Safari with the super glamorous campsites and everything. Not really sure when we'll be able to fit that in but a girl can dream

This is my dream vacation as well. Kruger Natl Park and the Kapama game reserve.

[ladytiffany24]

Weeks/Size of Baby: 18w5d/Sweet potato

Symptoms: Some movement and RLP, occasional heart burn

Appts: A/S on Nov 10th! Can't wait!

To Do's: Lots of stuff. I guess it's time to start making an actual to-do list.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: My MIL has been visiting and staying with us for the past 13 days. She finally leaves today. She won't be there when I get home from work and I can't tell you how happy this makes me!

QOTW: Tell me about your dream vacation?
Probably a nice European tour, but that's not going to happen probably until we retire. So I'll be realistic and just say somewhere beachy with a fancy pool and a pool boy who will serve me fruity drinks.

A day behind, but better late then never!

Weeks/Size of Baby: 17+6/video game controllers

Rants/Raves/Randoms:
A bit tired of the off/on random bleeding but we shall see.

QOTW: Tell me about your dream vacation? I would love to travel to Italy, France, Sweden someday. Take a cruise to Alaska

Jeans at kohls were $70! I only found skinnies at target but at least they were more reasonably priced.

The price gouging on all maternity clothes is insane and ridiculous!

I don't think I paid more than $25 a pair... 30% off with the card sales and order online- you can always find the code for the 30% and free shipping

Definitely not $70: m.kohls.com/product/prd-2550046/maternity-oh-baby-by-motherhood-secret-fit-belly-bootcut-jeans.jsp

Mine have different pockets since they're older but same ones. I prefer them over my Motherhood ones

Wow! The ones in the store were not even cute and they were $70. They were like bedazzled and had extra wide flare legs. DNW. But! I took a long lunch and drove to the closest destination maternity and got two pairs of jeans. They were buy one get one half off. I only really wear jeans or leggings to work so I think 3 pairs should get me through this pregnancy. That is until I outgrow the jeans and just start working from home in my pjs haha.
