How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice): Down to two days of work per week.. even the five hours on my feet had me super sore and feeling paranoid about how much I could feel him putting pressure lower. Past that, sniffly, but no nausea and all food tastes and sounds pretty great.

Any pics (u/s, bump, nursery ideas, craft projects, etc)?
I have some great fabric I will be making a baby blanket out of. A beautiful embossed minky and the fabric Tula used for the Flora Blue carrier. I hope to start soon but before I do I want to make sure I have planned how to use all of this fabric before touching it with scissors.

Bonus GTKY: Tis the month of thankfulness, so tell me...what are you thankful about for this coming week?
Canada so last month was Thanksgiving. For me, this is Diabetes Awareness Month! Ill just be dropping some knowledge on fb and hoping people give a damn.
I am so tired of being asked "can you eat that?", "do you have the bad kind?!", "does that hurt?", etc etc etc...

[moutonrouge]

EDD: Mar 7th

Weeks/Baby's Size: 23w/box of mac and cheese? Science-y app says 30.5cm and 1 lb 4 oz

Appointment plans/results: Follow-up A/S on 11/18, GD test on 11/23, and regular MW appt on 11/30

How ya feeling: The usual pains (back, ligaments), I can tell my gait is not the same (not a waddle, but not like it was before), I'm out of breath a little more quickly, and if I cross my legs or sit/lay funny then my feet and hands look greyish-blue and fall asleep more quickly than they used to. I mostly feel fine, just noticing the accumulation of things that aren't like they were.

Any pics (u/s, bump, nursery ideas, craft projects, etc)? daisylola11 gave me the idea to think about a going home outfit - I had been thinking about getting something cute just-because since we haven't bought anything for baby just yet. I think this is super cute:



Bonus GTKY: Tis the month of thankfulness, so tell me...what are you thankful about for this coming week? My parents are coming to take me out for my birthday, so I'm thankful they live nearby and can celebrate with me.

cosmicav: We've been saying "little ninja" or "tiny gymnast", I'll have to add "zumba instructor" to the list since a couple of my ILs are Zumba instructors.
obi: Educate the FB people! My aunt has type 1 and my grandfather (and some of his relatives) had type 2. It surprises me how little people know about diabetes.

EDD:
March 23rd


Weeks/Baby's Size:
20 weeks/Axolotl or pint of root beer 

Appointment plans/results:
NP appointment yesterday, we heard the baby's good, steady heartbeat and got to talk to her about our u/s. I have an anterior placenta so I think that explains why the kicking felt weird when I finally noticed it. 
AND we booked an appointment to see the RPN about breastfeeding next week (I think?).
AND I need to fill out a form for pre-admission visit to the hospital. We have time but I don't want to leave the form lying around.

How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice)
I'm feeling hungry! lol
Mini rant: I'm a bit concerned/confused about what my ILs are up to baby shower-wise. MIL implied there may be one but also noted that she just recommends people buy gift cards. 

Bonus GTKY: Tis the month of thankfulness, so tell me...what are you thankful about for this coming week?
Like obi, I'm Canadian so Thanksgiving was last month but I like making thankful lists:
- My H: DH & I have our 7 year (dating) anniversary on Friday! 
- My family: My Mom, sister, & cousin DIY'd the baby shower invites last night. It's just indicative of how much thought they're putting into throwing this party for me (and LO).
