1. How far along are you? 27w6d

2. When is your next appointment? Today-GTT and 28 week checkup....then every two weeks!

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Good, although after I found out this morning my tooth was abscessed, I had a minor freak out that the infection is going to get to baby. Will for sure be talking to my OB about it this afternoon.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? All the kicks and movements I get!

5. GTKY: Is someone throwing you a baby shower? I hope not! DS is only 2, so we have all we need! What's your favorite baby shower game/activity? I HATE baby shower games!

1. How far along are you? 31w4d (umm…holy cow it's going so quick!)

2. When is your next appointment? Today at 4. She's not going to be happy with me. I've gained 5 pounds since my last appointment (3 weeks ago) and I never went and got my repeat glucose test :/

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? It's good for the most part. I always get a little nervous right before appointments.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? I'm getting pretty excited for my baby showers that are coming up.

5. GTKY: Is someone throwing you a baby shower? Do you know the theme (or what was the theme is if you already had it)? What's your favorite baby shower game/activity? I have 2 baby showers. My work is throwing me one, and it's tomorrow. I have no idea of what to expect, since I am the event planner for our company, I usually plan all our events, but not this one! And then my mom, best friend and goddaughter are throwing me a shower for family and friends on the 18th. It is owl themed, and from the few things I've seen, it's going to be super cute. I can't wait!

ETA: I hate all shower games. I was insistent on no games at my bridal shower, and I told my mom no games at my baby shower, but I think she has a few planned anyways.  I told her fine, as long as no one makes me eat out of a diaper, drink out of a bottle or tries to measure my belly with anything.

1. How far along are you? 29w2d

2. When is your next appointment? This Thursday, to find out baby's position.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Okay. I can't wait for baby to be born so that I can stop worrying that something is going to happen to her inside of me and I won't even realize it until my next appointment when they can't find her heartbeat anymore.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? The fact that I have very few symptoms right now kicks ass. I love feeling and seeing her move. And I'm still just so obsessed with her room.

5. GTKY: Is someone throwing you a baby shower? Do you know the theme (or what was the theme is if you already had it)? What's your favorite baby shower game/activity? I have a work 'shower' on Wednesday (cake and soda in a big conference room). And then my sister, mom, and friends are throwing a shower for me this Saturday! I know the décor is black & white striped with pink flowers and there's a little bit of French flair. I can't wait! I like any game that's a relay. At one of my friend's showers it was a couple's relay where we had to dress a baby doll, pack the diaper bag, and do laps in a stroller--that was fun! And then at my friend's shower this past weekend it was a team game where we did a word scramble, diapered a balloon blindfolded, and dressed a teammate as a baby with a given set of supplies. I love a little competition

1. How far along are you? 30 weeks + 6 days

2. When is your next appointment? Friday for check up and Tdap

3. How is PGAL brain treating you? Good this week. He has been very active the last few days. I can now feel him even when I am out and about.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)? Excited about being able to decorate the nursery after my shower!

5. GTKY: Is someone throwing you a baby shower? Do you know the theme (or what was the theme is if you already had it)? What's your favorite baby shower game/activity? My mom and BFF are throwing me a shower on Saturday. I know nothing about it! Based on the invite, I am assuming it will be elephant themed. I have only been to one baby shower and the games were not very good so I can't say I have a favorite shower game.

2. When is your next appointment?
Thursday
3. How is PGAL brain treating you?
Eh. I've reached the point where now I'm worried that he won't come home with us post-delivery, heaven forbid. Some days it just seems too far fetched that I could actually get a take-home baby. I feel so morbid when I have these thoughts.
4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)?
When DD insists that she needs to hugs and kiss her baby brother.
5. GTKY: Is someone throwing you a baby shower? Do you know the theme (or what was the theme is if you already had it)? What's your favorite baby shower game/activity? Nope STM. I do think that we should get a sip-and-see planned, though!

alayne926 I hope your GTT went well!

mrsdee1982 How'd the appointment go? You didn't get into too much trouble, did you?

belle0720 I'm having the same issue with PGAL brain! Ugh! I hope it calms itself.

mrskblack11 How exciting! Have fun! Mine is the weekend after and I can't wait!

noeliav How sweet of your DD!

29w6d!

2. When is your next appointment?

Tomorrow morning! We still have two weeks until our last ultrasound though.

3. How is PGAL brain treating you?

It comes in waves. Some days, I'm fine. Others, I just can't imagine how I'll have a take home baby.

4. What's your current Pregnancy joy (other than being pregnant)?

The movement. It's so fantastic and it keeps me sane.

5. GTKY: Is someone throwing you a baby shower? Do you know the theme (or what was the theme is if you already had it)? What's your favorite baby shower game/activity?

My BFF is throwing one next Saturday. I can't wait! It's going to be mermaid themed. My MIL's church (DH grew up there.) is also throwing one the first week of May. I have no clue what the theme is, if there is one.
