Good morning ladies! Another week closer to seeing our LOs.

What week are you?

Any symptoms?

Milestones/appointments:

GTKY: as summer is approaching - what is your favourite thing about summer?

[nettje]

Week: 32. Only 7 weeks and a day until my repeat c/s.

Symptoms: every now and then some nasty heartburn, exhaustion that just started up this week, and swelling at the end of the day.

Appointments: not until next week now.

GTKY: I like to be outside for the summer... Camping, hiking, sitting on the beach and boating. This summer we won't go but next summer I'm going to try to convince DH we should head to the Rockies and get some camping in. I think DD would love it.

nettje,thank you for starting this post!

What week are you? 32 weeks, RCS on May 27th at 39 weeks

Any symptoms? Laziness if that counts.

Milestones/appointments: 4/9 with MFM for cervical length, then 4/23 at 34 weeks with MFM for my last growth ultrasound (excited for LO's weight prediction at delivery), 5/7 36-week appointment for GBS and cerclage removal, 5/19 38-week appointment, and 5/26 Lab work up and info for my RCS on 5/27. These are all of my appointments and milestones, and I am super excited. YAY!!!!!!

GTKY: As summer is approaching - what is your favorite thing about summer? Well, this year it will be my birthday 6/16 and my children's birthday 6/14 and hopefully 5/27. It will be my almost ten-month old 1st birthday! I'm over the moon about this! I will be throwing DS a b-day party in my hometown to be surrounded by family and a sip and see for my b-day and as a family get together to meet the new addition to the family in the same weekend. My b-day does not belong to me this year, and I am fine with that.

What week are you? 32 weeks

Any symptoms? Lots and lots of pressure, tons of braxton hicks, low back pain, and hip pain. I had an ultrasound yesterday to check the location of my placenta and the tech said baby is very low, so I suppose that explains my symptoms.

Milestones/appointments: I had an appointment yesterday and everything looked good, other than an increase in my diastolic BP that my OB wants to watch. Nothing of concern at this time.

GTKY: as summer is approaching - what is your favourite thing about summer? Definitely the warmer weather, swimming, and playing outside with DD.

30 weeks! I'm kind of freaking out...

Just the usual aches for symptoms. And some random heartburn. I'm also completely brain dead right now. I can't focus for more than 30 seconds and I keep losing things.

I have my 3 hr glucose test on Friday, but then nothing until the end of the month. Is that weird? Should I have started going more often? I think I need to catch up on my pregnancy book.

As a teacher, summer means a real break for awhile...normally. I usually catch up on reading and spend quality time with MH.

29 Weeks today...also kinda freaking out.

Lots of pressure and lots of back pain. Im FTM so all the tightness I feel in my mlower tummy every once in while, I'm guessing that's Braxton Hicks. I think I experienced my firs round of severe rount ligament pain last night. Pain was so bad that I thought I was going to pass out.

Just had an appointment this past sunday. Dr said baby is breech right now. If she doesn't turn by next week I have to start doing exercises to see if I can get her to turn.

GTKY: I love everything about summer. I feel like the whole world is yours and can do anything you want! Can't wait to take this LO everywhere. After her shots of course.

Week 29! 3 different apps say 3 different things, I'll go with pineapple! (Just because it's fun)
Team green
I want to punch everyone in the face lately. Hungry all the time but can only eat small amounts because I get soooo full soooo fast! Troubles sleeping. Swelling of my ankles and feet is pretty bad too!
Next appointment is Wed the 15th.
I love to be outdoors! I'm also excited for BBQs, bonfires and getting back to my running (and doing it outside).

fuccimama it looks like we both go in on the same day for our RCS. Fun times. I'm a bit scared at the moment and it's not easing up. You?

nettje Since my first was a c-section, i'm not scared. I have an abundance of anxiety, and i'm freaking out about buying all the things before he gets here. I feel like my 2nd child shouldn't have to share everything.

My recovery was awesome, I never felt pain! I would suggest maybe a pair of c-panty, to not have your clothing rubbing up against your scar for a little bit, or just rocking dresses. I was able to walk the same day, but they wouldn't let me for 24 hours because of the epidural. I had a crazy reaction to it, so I was itching like crazy.

I hope your feeling of being scared eases up, but if not you will feel better once your LO is here safe and sound.

What week are you? 31 weeks

Any symptoms? Cramping, pelvic pain, mostly just being very uncomfortable, also heart burn.

Milestones/appointments: Tomorrow I have an appointment for physical therapy to hopefully help with the feeling that my pelvis is going to split in half. Next week we have an appointment with the midwife.

GTKY: as summer is approaching - what is your favourite thing about summer? I love having more opportunities to go outside with the kids. Also this summer I am looking forward to maternity leave and snuggling with a new baby!

My first was a c/s as well and I had a good recovery. I'm just not liking the idea of being cut open again... That's the part that gets me. I'm sure recovery will be good again this time around. I just don't like what comes before recovery. Lol.

Way too early to worry about that IMO.  I don't plan on worrying about baby's position until closer to 35 weeks.

For everyone who passes that one-hour test, for everyone who passss the three-hour test, I say, eat all the cookies in honor of those who cannot.
