ugaqueencity, Welcome!! So glad to see you here!

Weeks/Size of Baby: 37+6; Little skunk-sized until tomorrow.

Symptoms: Oh, aches, pains, etc. Movements are getting smaller and more like shifting. Baby has dropped even lower so now crotch pain never ever goes away or gets less painful. I feel like there has been a shift in things in general; one of those things you can't really pinpoint exactly what's changed but it's something.

Appointments: Belly check Thursday

To Do's: Install car seats, finish up DS's room. We got some of it done yesterday but haven't bothered with full cleaning and organizing baby's side. Also, need to get my room cleaned.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I want a glider so badly. I might try convincing H to use some of the Christmas money we received to get one. We'll see. We'll probably just pay bills with it :/

For fun: Goals/resolutions for 2017?
Ha! I'm going to be optimistic and say lose the baby weight. Mostly, my goals are just to get used to having an extra body in our household and figuring out a balance with baby, DS, and H. Also, need to find a new job.

Weeks/Size of Baby: 30 weeks +1

Symptoms: same pelvic pain and ab pain is new lately, like my belly is getting heavier, might try using my support belt more.

Appointments: Jan 10th then supposed to be every 2 weeks but the next one is 3 since MW was booked.

To Do's: waiting to put all the Xmas crap away and start prepping for real and getting the house back in order. I still feel like I have time to wash the bassinet/swing/car seat specially since it's been rainy. I have lists upon lists...

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I'm already getting the "you won't make it till march" comments... thanks. I am already feeling more pain this go round than with my DS so it makes me nervous and I want time to fly by at this point.

For fun: Goals/resolutions for 2017?

Keep active and routine of getting out of the house once this LO arrives. I don't wanna become a hermit with my energetic toddler. But At the same time I have to remember to take it easy the first few weeks and not expect to just go back to how we were pre pregnancy.

Weeks/size: 38w6d. Baby is definately the size of a baby.

Symptoms: more hip/ low back pain in the last few days and a little bit if heartburn too (probably the lovely christmas food).

Appointments: last us/NST tomorrow before RCS on Friday

To do's: We'd be ok if baby arrives early, but... I need to put finishing touches to the nursery (wall decal, clock, curtain rods need mounted and curtains will only arrive after LO!). And while we moved into our newly remodelled bedroom this week there're no curtains there yet either (shopping tomorrow) and there's still alot of post remodel/ post christmas mess everywhere that needs tidied away or thrown out. So to summarize, a busy couple of days ahead!

RRR: Today I had my hair cut and a pedi/ Mano too. It was very relaxing christmas gift from my mom who us visiting and who looked after DS while I was out

2017 goals: survive and enjoy life as a family of four!

Weeks/Size of Baby:34 weeks 1 day; basketball hoop

Symptoms: mood swings and tired all the time

Appointments: Today was our appointment, another one in two weeks

To Do's: Still need to set up the nursery. And there is a long list of other things to do as well.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: Did the hospital tour today. I'm disappointed that the rooms aren't as comfy and the whole section just seemed more sterile and hospital like, I'm going to miss the hospital V was born in.
For fun: Goals/resolutions for 2017? We really need to build our savings back up. We had a lot of household expenses this past year so I'd like to get back on track with our emergency fund.
