HEY, MONDAY! Thinking of txngrl31 who usually gets this going for us!

Week/ FTM? STM?/ Team: 36 weeks with our first boychild.

Symptoms/ Complaints/ Questions: I've been careful not to overdo it, but have been doing a lot over the last little bit. Saturday I was throwing a frisbee around and slipped which was slightly concerning, and I've been feeling pains in lower left pelvis since. Will mention to doc tomorrow. Other than that the swelling is the hardest thing to deal with. My feet are 6 inches thick and I cant put my hands into fists anymore lol.

Upcoming Appointments: Doc tomorrow for strep B test

GTKY: I'm real easy. Well cooked, sopressatta and cheese and I'm happy. OH! And dough bubbles. I love dough bubbles.

Week/ FTM? STM?/ Team:
38! STM, team green

Symptoms/ Complaints/ Questions:
So, I've had pretty sucky pelvic/hip pain, some on and off minor foot/hand swelling, occasional heartburn, peeing lots especially overnight. But yesterday morning, and this is definitely TMI, I was feeling pretty average, went to the bathroom, and ended up stuck there for an hour and a half! I couldn't stop pooping, and in the times I did, I couldn't stop feeling the pressure of needing to poop. It was sooo uncomfortable, the most uncomfortable I've been this pregnancy, and the first time I started wishing for labour to begin so I had a reason to go to the hospital. But, the moment passed, I was able to lay down for awhile after that. I don't know if it was one of those pre-labour cleanses or just some major backup, but it was not pretty or fun.

Upcoming Appointments:
Wednesday for routine checkup

GTKY: Describe your favorite pizza (thin crust/thick crust? Delivery/Homemade? Toppings?
Oh my, how do I choose a favourite. Lately it's been homemade with this awesome premade homemade dough that the school sells for fundraisers. This last time we bought a batch of Italian herb dough and whole wheat, and probably my favourite toppings would be some cold cuts like ham, salami, pepperoni, onions, and a lot of cheese!

ETA- AH! Guys! This is our last May ticker change! Holy moly!

Week? 39 weeks, yikes! TTM, Team blue, round 2.

Symptoms/Complaints? I'm am emotionally and physically OVER feeling like crap. 9 months of nausea sucks. However, also getting nervous anticipating pushing out this baby. Also, if I could have a remote turn off switch for DH's phone, that'd be awesome.

Upcoming appts? I'm throwing a birthday party for DS today. Can't really think past that.

Pizza? DH grills our homemade pizza and it is glorious. But I love going out and getting a margarita pizza (basil, tomato slices, and all the cheese).

[a5swanson]

Week? 38 weeks with #1. Baby girl.

Symptoms/Complaints? I generally just feel like shit. Consistent period-like cramps all the time, kinda nauseous, sweaty, and gross. Woof.

Upcoming appts? I have both my NST and OB appt on Friday. Hope I make it that long!

Pizza? We have something called Detroit-style pizza. It's deep dish square...and amazing. That's my favorite. Mmmm wish I had some now.

[lc1158]

38 weeks (holy crap!!) FTM Team Pink

Feet and ankles have started swelling, still having that left sided groin pain and it's becoming really painful to walk.

Seeing chiro on Wednesday, growth ultrasound on Thursday (she jumped 3 weeks ahead from where she was at last week's checkup - hoping she is just stretching herself out Superman-style) and then 38 week check on Friday.

Ooooooohhhh PIZZA!!!!! Regular crust, extra tomato sauce, mushrooms, green peppers and olives.
Today is our 1 year wedding anniversary and were supposed to go out to a nice dinner. Now I want pizza. Lol.

[carolyngrace]

Happy 39 weeks wegrowsheep! If we make it to next Monday's ticker change we can say happy due date!

39 weeks, FTM, baby boy.

My symptoms change throughout the day. I have hours where I'll feel great, and do all of the things. And then I'll suddenly feel nauseous, tired, achy, etc. And the stabbing pain if I have to pee and try to stand up is awful. I'm peeing hourly as a preventative measure! Baby is loooooow.

Regular appt on Tuesday. If I'm feeling like I am today, it will be a quick one. They don't start checking for dilation until after 40 weeks, and I don't have to pee each time, so it's mainly just "how are you feeling?", measure belly, etc.

My fave pizza is the same as @bubbs119, minus the onions. Thin crust pepperoni, dipped in Ranch

[tiffbot]

Happy anniversary lc1158!

And seeing 39 weekers is so crazy too!

Week/ FTM? STM?/ Team:
38 weeks! (My last was born at 38+1!)
Ttm
Green baby

Symptoms/ Complaints/ Questions:
Just tired and in pain. My right hips gets inflamed a lot and of course my pelvis and pubic bones are hurting. Also that stupid inflamed nerve between my groin n vag is always inflamed now. And the swelling is totally there, along with the waddle.

Upcoming Appointments:
I have my apt tomorrow, regular check up. I'm saying no to checking my cervix because I know it means nothing for me. Also, it will be the first time I see another ob other than mine. His wife is having a scheduled csection on the third so he will be taking time off, so happy but so sad. I LOVE my ob.

GTKY: Describe your favorite pizza (thin crust/thick crust? Delivery/Homemade? Toppings?) MMM Pizza.
My stepdad is the chef at a high in Italian restaurant and he makes me the most delicious extra thin with thick crust pepperoni pizzas with french fries on top in their pizza oven. My mouth is so watering now.

38 weeks/ TTM/ Team Green

Symptoms: officially joining the swollen feet club, mostly just tired though!

Appointments: I have my very last regularly scheduled appointment on Thursday (28th) at 38+3. Then on to the scheduled c next Tuesday (what??!?).

Pizza: I'm weird I know but I am not really a big pizza person. There is one pizza I love from our local Greek restaurant that is thin crust with a very small amount of a garlic butter sauce and feta cheese and spinach. Hubby says it isn't "real pizza" though!

French fries on top?! WUT? Drooling.

[mcp6286]

Week/ FTM? STM?/ Team: FTM/37...so relieved to have made it here! Baby girl is completely baked and just chubbing up in there now so obv Team Pink

Symptoms/ Complaints/ Questions: leg cramps, heartburn, constipation, moodiness, exhaustion, etc.

Question - anyone else's bump get really sore on the bottom, like your muscles are tired? It gets really painful sometimes but it's not like cramps/contractions at all. I think it's just from the extra weight. I'm going to ask the dr on Wed but wondering if anyone else gets this.

Upcoming Appointments: Wed is my regular checkup. Not expecting anything exciting. Unenthused about seeing my weight gain; excited that I don't have to get the GBS test (already diagnosed, but with a c-section its not a huge deal anyway).

Pizza: most dairy free pizza is crap so it's been about 12 years since I had the good stuff. Back in the day, I loved Hawaiian!

[carolyngrace]

mcp6286, my bump gets sore all around my belly button. It feels like the muscles are tired or something, similar to what you're saying..

[ombradellarosa]

I'm so late it's barely Monday here! I have had a really crazy day. Did not go according to plan at all and a lot of the things on my list didn't get done. But I got to spend time with family and eat a lot of great food so I guess that kind of makes up for it.

Week/ FTM? STM?/ Team: 39 weeks. I am a week from my due date. This is not happening. FTM, girl.

Symptoms/ Complaints/ Questions: Today I had painful BH. I hadn't been feeling them but I am feeling them with a vengeance now. I'm irritated with my doctor for telling me to go to the hospital if I'm cramping. What the heck does that mean? Baby's movements are back to being very strong and frequent, which is comforting now if not comfortable. I am constantly hungry. I am ready to be done with this, and so excited to meet baby!

Upcoming Appointments: Tomorrow. Not looking forward to another painful cervical exam, but I do want to see if I've dilated at all since last time.

GTKY: Describe your favorite pizza (thin crust/thick crust? Delivery/Homemade? Toppings?) MMM Pizza.
I like thick crust and I am staunchly in favour of tomato sauce over anything else. Otherwise, I like nearly everything. Hawaiian, Margherita, and veggie are some of my favourites. I don't love meat on pizza in general.
