GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want?

[ThankfulSnail]

EDD/Weeks: 4/19- 29w5d

Size: Acorn squash

Updates/Appointments: Last OB appointment was 2/1, all good, HB of 120. Next appointment is 2/15.

Feeling: Fine, sore in my back and still battling constipation/hemorrhoids but could be so much worse.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: Nada this week.

To Dos: Buying DD's bedroom furniture this week for her big girl room, then will need to get sheets and such and we can finally move her out of the nursery and start prepping it for baby!


GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want? We always said 2 so this is probably my last pregnancy. That makes me really sad, though, so I keep saying to DH I don't want to do anything permanent for a while and we can see how we feel in a few years about the possibility of a third.

Oooo yes! I meant to start one of these forgot. Haha. How is everyone?!

EDD/Weeks: 4/16/17. 30w1d. Say what?!

Size: cabbage lol

Updates/Appointments: I have a second follow up with cardiology this month since the OB wasn't happy that they didn't actually see me last time (just hooked up my monitor and sent me on my way). But, the palpitations are wayyyyy better & not as frequent so not really worried there. Next OB appt is 3/2

Feeling: pretty good. Back/hips are much better after visiting the chiropractor. Just hoping I can ward off the cold that DD & DH caught.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I'm ready for warm sunny weather. The rain moved back in this week.

To Dos: I need to get clothes hangers so I can actually put away his clothes and figure out what we need still.
Also
- work on cross stitch
- sew his blanket
- paint the dragon above his crib

GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want? I want 3 and he wants 2. So we'll see.

EDD/Weeks: 4/5/17, 31+5

Size: foam finger

Updates/Appointments: tomorrow is growth scan, Nst, 32 wk appt. Friday, another Nst.

Feeling: large, uncomfortable

Rants/Raves/Randoms: getting nervous, 6 weeks or less to go and a baby shower is being held for me in 3 weeks

To Dos:
Curtains, carseats

GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want? He wanted 1, a boy. I wanted one more (I have an 8 yo boy and an angel in heaven ).... Surprise, we are getting two lol

EDD/Weeks: 28w1d/ April 30

Size: coconut

Updates/Appointments: MW app today, growth scan 2/16, next MW app 2/20

Feeling: tired.. had my GTT today so crashing from the sugar all afternoon and evening. I'm ready for April to be here. I'm also looking forward to Friday's chiro app. My hips and lower back are killing me

Rants/Raves/Randoms: Not too much. Currently try to plan my maternity leave and undecided on if I want to go out at 38 weeks or just keep attempting to work until the end

To Dos: finish decorating the nursery, wash the remaining baby items, install car seat bases at 35 weeks, pack hospital bag at 32 weeks to be safe. I also need to decide where I'm delivering at... I have one tour this weekend and the MW I saw today thinks it will be more to my liking because it's very similar to where I had DS1

GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want?
We're torn between 2 and 3. I've always wanted 3 but hate being pregnant so.. I told DH he had to wait a year after we say we're done before we do anything permanent (he's getting snipped and I'll be getting a tubal to be double safe)

EDD/Weeks: April 8/31 +2

Size: lettuce

Updates/Appointments: appointment on Friday. Passed the 3 hour GD test, thank goodness.

Feeling: pretty good. Mostly just really tired.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I'm getting so excited to meet her. I was really anxious when pregnant with my son and had no idea what to expect. I feel like I never got excited with him because I was so nervous. Also, we are getting closer on the name!

To Dos: we need to buy a car. Bleh.


GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want? 2 and through.

EDD/Weeks: 24 April / 29+1

Size: Butternut Pumpkin

Updates/Appointments: Baby is breech / transverse and has been for a while. He stretches out sideways and it's so painful. I passed my GTT and had our first growth scan. Baby is measuring just behind but not enough for concerns yet. I had my first hiccup on my VBAC journey - the doctor started going over and over the risks of VBAC a breech baby but didn't talk about the risks of another CS. He used my weight as a risk factor even though I was waaaaaaaaaay heavier with DS1. So I'm researching acupuncturists and chiropractors that are recommended by locals to help with breech babies.

Feeling: Bloated. Uncomfortable. Ready to finish work.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: Currently my favourite snack is dried cranberries and cubes of sharp cheddar cheese. I seriously could eat a ton of it every day.

To Dos: Washing and setting up furniture. Possibly will start when my hours decrease again next months.


GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want? I want 4. H wants 2 possibly 3.

EDD/Weeks: 4/15. 30+3

Size: Cantaloupe

Updates/Appointments: went for our 3D/4D tonight. She is head down and wouldn't move her hands from her face. She's a stubborn little thing.

Next appt: Monday 2/13, the last of my 4 week appointments, on to every 2 weeks. I will probably get my tdap shot then.

Feeling: Sore. I really don't like third tri. My SPD is getting more and more painful and I'm getting nervous about delivery.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: had our shower last weekend and I'm washing all of her baby clothes today. I can't believe she is almost here.

To Dos: finish putting everything away, buy a second mattress for the second crib. Finish purchasing our registry.


GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want?

I'm not sure. I think we will NTNP after M is born, We struggled with IF for two years and I don't know if I can go back to the TTC mindset again. I will be grateful and blessed with one.

EDD/Weeks: April 29th/ 28 weeks and I have no idea how many days lol

Size: A coconut, apparently

Updates/Appointments: Have an appt Tuesday. Happy Valentine's day to me.

Feeling: Okay. The kicks are weird to me, especially when I see them. It feels like it's trying to escape already, but by cutting it's own hole out.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I want to be in a house already, but we're just starting the searching process. It will be nice for DD to have her own room set up, and to have an actual nursery for the new LO on its way.

To Dos: Buy a house, buy a second car.


GTKY: How many kids do you and your partner ultimately want? Originally, he wanted 2, and I wanted 3. Now that we know #2 is another girl, he seems on board for a 3rd. (He really, really wants a boy, of course!)
I do joke about having a million kids like the Duggars, but he doesn't find it as funny as I do.
