Completely forgot to post this yesterday! Sorry ladies.
Hope everyone's doing well. How are you feeling? What are you looking forward to doing the most with your LO?
My overly happy baby girl!

Re: PG Check In
We are doing good. I had a bad cramp on my left side today but my OB tells me it is just round ligament pain, but it is just different from the other ones I have been feeling. We had a checkup last week and heard a good, strong heartbeat. Next Friday is my anatomy scan. I am starting to get excited about finding out what this little one is.
I am looking forward to having someone to share my traditions with. The holidays will be so much more fun this year!

Doing good here. Haven't heard back regarding my glucose test so I'm hoping no news is good news. They gave me my rhogam shot on Wednesday too. I thought it was going to have to be in my butt but they stuck it in my arm so that was a relief. My appts are now three weeks apart for the next two and then I move to every two weeks. Pretty crazy.
Right now I'm most looking forward to maternity leave and being able to be with her all day/night for a few weeks. I'm also looking forward to Halloween costumes
Oh me too!! I will only have at most a month old at this point (hopefully) but I am still planning on dressing pumpkin up. I have a boy idea but I still have not come up with a girl one.

I'm still "brewing" up ideas
I really can't think of something I am really looking forward to doing with LO. But as mentioned above, the thought of adorable Halloween costumes did cross my mind yesterday.
Have you had any real contractions yet?
I had two at lunch today. I thought it was just back pain from finally sitting in a chair with good back support, but then it moved around to the from and then up my belly. I was so excited, and in pain- but like good pain because I was excited haha. Since then I've just had really strong BH, but now that I'm home with my feet up they're calming down. I'm hoping this means I'll go before 40 weeks!
I'm also officially waddling everywhere. And I can no longer cross my legs, which is the only way I can sit comfortably, so I'm just constantly uncomfy now. I've also started feeling nauseous any time I lay down. I think I hit that pregnancy wall people talk about this weekend. I'm slowly but surely getting over this whole pregnancy thing. I'm ready to meet my baby and go on maternity leave!
And we're really looking forward to taking her to the Zoo and museums in DC. We both LOVE doing that, and can't wait to share it with her. OH! And D is doing this cool thing called the Spartan Race - its coming to our area the middle of June, and I can't wait for Felicity and I to go and cheer him on. I love picturing our little family cheering for Dh with all the other on-lookers oohing and ahhing over how adorable/beautiful/perfect my daughter is, haha.

Doing okay, first week of cutting back on calories so far so good. I love my milk but even for skim 2 gallons a week was pretty excessive.
I can't wait to cuddle her. I am not a super cuddly but I just can't wait for that part. I also almost can't stand the wait to see dh with her, he is a huge sucker for our dog I can only imagine how it will be with a little girl.
Feeling a lot better than I have. The nausea is definitely subsiding but I'm still wicked tired a lot. It was totally awesome seeing the baby yesterday. It has definitely finally become real for us now that the baby looks like a baby and I can actually think about being pregnant
As far as what I am looking forward to, well everything but especially seeing what the baby looks like
Booo!! Obviously the eviction notice went unnoticed.

No compliants here. It is moving up a storm and it is pretty painful - certain areas of my stomach are sore to the touch and a couple times I felt like if it kicked any harder I was going to pee myself. I am going shopping tonight to find some maternity jeans; my jeans I wear with flats are officially uncomfortable now (not too shabby to make it almost 32 weeks without buying anything maternity though). My feet/ankles are starting to swell too - boo.
I'm really excited to see what it is! I'm too scared to be excited for much else at this point.
