Week: 33 - HOLLA!

Symptoms/ Rants/Questions: It is a holiday here in Massachusetts, Patriot's Day, and I've been up for awhile because a) DH is snoring and b) my hips are killing me no matter what position I sleep in. I think a nap is in my near future. LO is moving a ton and I can feel something laying on my bladder- talk about uncomfortable! I still have intermittent spotting so I'm calling the dr again ( third time) today because apparently no amount of reassurance is enough.

Upcoming Appointments: 34 week regular check up next week that includes GBS test.

GTKY: I am a sucker for comedies made in the 80s and 90s: Captain Ron, Father of the Bride, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, National Lampoons, etc. Bridget Jones Diary is another one of my go- to's!

Week: 30!!!

Symptoms/ Rants/ Questions: Just achy and heartburn

Upcoming Appointments: None this week, although we start prenatal classes Thursday

GTKY: I'm a huge sucker for musicals or even movies with great soundtracks. I LOVE The King and I, My Fair Lady, White Christmas, Mamma Mia

Happy Monday, lovely ladies!

Week: 34

Symptoms/ Rants/ Questions: Peeing every hour. General tiredness (from being up peeing every hour). Some heartburn still, but not terrible. Headaches?! (not sure where they came from this past week, I haven't had any my whole pregnancy!). Feeling weirdly confident and ready to give birth, which makes me feel freaked out

Upcoming Appointments: I need to go to CVS and get my TDAP shot this week. I keep forgetting to. Reg appt in 2 weeks.

GTKY: I can watch Mean Girls and Dirty Dancing repeatedly. For maternity leave, I'm waiting to watch all the new Mad Men and GOT episodes!

carolyngrace I know we are the most extreme ends of the month... But sweet Jesus. You're going to be full term (early full term but still) in three weeks. I can't even deal.

OMG you're not kidding. It's feeling real at this point. I'm trying to get caught and ahead at work. And I have a crazy month of plans ahead between family and church events, culminating in my all-church retreat May 15th - 17th that (for some stupid reason) I offered to plan. Hopefully I'll even be able to attend! 

Looking at all the May babies being born makes it even more real... ahhh!

I got butterflies and nausea just reading @pcrunk comment! Wow, 3 weeks! I have four and can't believe it!!

33 weeks

I have way too many symptoms. Some of my Braxton hicks are getting so strong I now call them contractions. I feel vaginal and recital pressure for 5-10 seconds before the contraction comes sweeping up my belly. I also have plenty of regular Braxton hicks to add to that mix. Tiredness. Super tired. Like first trimester dead kind of tired. My hips hurt. I can get heartburn from drinking water. Baby keeps pushing on me hard enough it can be slightly painful. I'm not sure how I'll deal in 7 weeks. I could keep going on here but I'll stop now

I'm a SAHM with two girls so no extra tv for me. Unless it's cartoons or wild america.

33 weeks! Holy balls this is a big one for me, if you see me here next week it will be the most pregnant I've ever been!

Lots of what I think are fairly typical 3rd tri symptoms. Heartburn here and there, sore hips and pelvis, feeling lots of stretching in my belly, cramps here and there. It's starting to slow me down quite a bit.

I have an ultrasound tomorrow! Haven't seen baby since week 20, dr just wants to follow up on some things and keep me closely monitored.

I don't know that I'm crazy obsessed about any one movie.
If I was looking for something to have on TV I'd probably put anything Disney on but I'd be more likely to find a hockey or football game, haha.

31 weeks with a pineapple-boy today

Feeling mellow. Headaches come and go as does sleep. The boy was quiet for a few days and I had some clear liquid leaking yesterday which combined, freaked me out. Spent an hour in childbirth triage this morning and everything is good. Boy has a great heartrate, my uteran contractions are happening just as they're supposed to. My doc came and did a 'spec test' and told me the liquid is NOT amniotic thank God.
note: having a speculum inserted NOW is nothing like a pap. NO LUBE makes for an unpleasant experience and a kind of angry pregnant woman.

I see the doc next Thursday for 32 week appt and to get requisition for next ultrasound.

QOTW: Baby Mama, The Proposal and the Sister Act movies. I could probably watch Pitch Perfect a whole ton too

31 weeks

Today is all about back pain. Add in some newly developed creepy baby tickes. My boobs are heavy and achy, busting out of my old bras now. Oh and another symptom is that nothing sounds good to eat besides sweets all of a sudden. Give me all the ice cream and cakey carbs.

Next appointment is May 1st with the midwife who told me I'm no longer a candidate. Then I should have an appointment with the new dr 2 weeks later.

I'm not super in to rewatching movies. I do really like Wreck It Ralph and Forrest Gump and watch those multiple times.

Week: 34 and baby is a butternut squash! This is very amusing to DH and I because of a long-running joke between us.

Symptoms/ Rants/ Questions: This week, not too bad. My hips have been hurting less, which is wonderful. I'm exhausted though, which is making it hard to get done my huge to-do list.

Upcoming Appointments: Not for another two weeks. My appointments got slightly off track because I had to switch days to get my delivering OB.

GTKY: Since some might be starting maternity leave soon or find themselves with free time, what are your favorite all time movies to watch? I have been wanting to watch What to Expect When You're Expecting so often. I guess it's really relatable right now.

Sciatic pain, nausea, exhaustion, and a big, fat, new stretch mark. Also, I'm loving how my boobs look like someone took a blue magic marker to them...
Had an appt today, eeverything is going great. Another in 2 weeks, then weekly.
I love Little Women, Ever After, etc. Also, anything with Russell Crowe. Yum.
