1. How far along are you? 28w2d

2. When is your next appointment? 04/09. We have an ultrasound to check baby's position.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Okay. I've been freaking out on my commute home from work that I'm going to get into a car accident and lose baby.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? My alien belly. It's so crazy to see her moving around so much! We're also almost done with her room! Finished her armoire this weekend and organized all of her clothes in there. We just have to hang up the wall décor tonight and it's done!

5. GTKY: Any Easter plans or traditions? No big traditions here. We do church in the AM and then sometimes brunch. This year we're going to H's godmother's house where all of his massive extended family gets together.

1. How far along are you? 30w4d

2. When is your next appointment? I have an u/s tomorrow and then a follow up OB appointment on 4/6.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Pretty good. For several weeks I kept telling myself "If I can make it to 30 weeks, everything will be ok". Now that I am past 30 weeks, I seem to be very at peace.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? Her room is coming together. I sat in there for a while this weekend and just marveled over the fact that there is a crib in my house. That I need a crib in my house. It's pretty cool.

5. GTKY: Any Easter plans or traditions? My family has always been pretty relaxed about Easter. We usually do dinner at my moms. That's what we're doing this year.

1. How far along are you?
26w6d


2. When is your next appointment?
4/6 for glucose screening


3. How is PGAL brain treating you?
Still doing ok.  I love that I can feel him/her moving around for some reassurance.


4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)?
I know I've said this before, but watching DS start to understand what's going on.  Yesterday we were playing and he said, "Go to baby's room to play?" So, we took hotwheel cars in there to play.  I love that it's not all about him in his mind at the moment.  (Fully aware that this is going to change)


5. GTKY: Any Easter plans or traditions?
We do Easter with my family on Saturday so we can all spend plenty of time together. Now that all of us kids are married and have kids of our own, we were getting spread too thin, so it's nice to have a day for my family and a day for DH's family.  We'll do an Easter egg hunt with DS in our subdivision before going to my family.  Then, we'll do Easter basket with DS on Sunday before going to DH's family.

1. How far along are you? 28w6

1. How far along are you? 26 weeks today.

2. When is your next appointment? Glucose test on 4/2 and regular pre-natal appointment on 4/9.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? So much better since she's been moving up a storm the past week or so. It feels constant that I'm feeling her and that's extremely reassuring.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? DH FINALLY FELT HER FOR THE FIRST TIME ON SATURDAY! I can't even describe the look on his face and how happy he was. It was really amazing!

5. GTKY: Any Easter plans or traditions? Church with DH's family Easter morning, and then probably brunch with them too. We may do dinner or something with my family, because I'd like to see my nephew, but we have no set plans! I can't wait to put together a basket next year for baby girl.

belle0720 I'm so jealous! My next u/s isn't until the 21st! It's been so loooong! Haha.

mrsdee1982 I walk back into the baby room often and marvel about all of the tiny things in there!

alayne926 Aw, how precious of your DS! ♡

[mrskblack11]

1. How far along are you? 29 weeks + 6 days

2. When is your next appointment? 4/10 for check-up plus Tdap (was supposed to get the Tdap at my last appointment but they were out).

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Things are good. Feeling him kick helps.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? Actually looking pregnant! Got my first round of strangers asking me about the baby.

5. GTKY: Any Easter plans or traditions? My mom always cooks Easter lunch/dinner but they are an hour and half away from us and I don't know if I will feel like driving. My baby shower is next week at her house so I don't really want to do the drive two weekends in a row.

belle0720 mrsdee1982 how exciting to get to see your LO again! I won't have another U/S until 36 weeks.

alayne926, FX that you pass the glucose screening next week!

maddielynn321, I have been wondering where you have been!

sgarmand, FX that you pass the glucose test this week! How exciting for your DH!!

Helllllooooooo, everyone!
1. How far along are you?
30w (omg, what?) 2d
2. When is your next appointment?
Next week.
3. How is PGAL brain treating you?
Good, mostly. However, googling to learn more about this AMA situation has given me a host of other worries that I didn't have before.
4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)?
Baby boy has reached the stage where he "plays" with me when I rub my belly. If I rub over his bum, he responds by sticking it out. Like "more, please!" lol. DD did the same thing in utero.
5. GTKY: Any Easter plans or traditions?
A basket for DD. We used to do brunch with our friends/neighbors but they recently moved, so I'm not sure what we'll do this year.

1. 27w2d

2. Couple weeks with OB, And another US right after.

3. PGAL brain has mostly been under control. Most likely I've been too tired/busy to have time. Which in the end is great to be mostly worry free.

4. Getting prepared! And feeling baby lots. Just waiting for the hiccups to start! Once they do I'm sure I'll wish for it to stop lol.

5. No Easter plans really. My mom mentioned a turkey dinner which I would never refuse, so we will see
