Re: Babes With Bumps
1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week? Pregnancy wise, I'm feeling pretty good. The RLP seems to have let up, thankfully. I woke up feeling like poo though- ears & throat.
Next week I have an OB appt and a MFM (u/s) appt. Milestones= viability!
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to? Junk food. Can't get enough.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.) Nope, our mini-shower is this weekend so I'm waiting until after to see what we still need.
4.) Anything else to share?
Our crazy, wonderful life
1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week?
No changes. Still bad muscle pulls on the ribs making sleeping interesting. I had a regular appointment yesterday. Everything is still going well.
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to?
Nothing and it sucks. With Alex root beer was the best tasting root beer ever. Pregnancy #2, Whoppers were A-freaking-mazing (and I hate Whoppers). I haven't had a single real craving this time.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.)
We're still getting the girls' room figured out. H needs to get working on Alex's bed so we can move Alex and reset the crib. We are making some canvas wall art I saw on Pintrest. Then I need to haul the unused toys down to the basement and bring up some baby gear.
4.) Anything else to share?
I can't believe tomorrow is 35/35
1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week?
Had my 32 week appointment yesterday, everything still looking good! Can't believe I only have 8 weeks left! Still feeling good, just getting more uncomfortable. Having to eat small meals, back still bothering me, hard to put my shoes on, lol! Baby girl has been residing under my ribs for a while and it's driving me nuts!!
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to?
Haven't really had any cravings or aversions throughout my pregnancy. The only thing I might classify as a craving is buffalo anything. I was never a big buffalo person before, but loving it now.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.)
Time to really get going on the nursery! We don't have a lot to do other than furniture shifting between rooms and putting the crib together. Then just decorating.
4.) Anything else to share?
I'm excited to go through it all and get it organized.
Our shower was this weekend! It was great, my step-MIL did an awesome job. So overwhelmed and grateful by all the stuff we got, and yet still overwhelmed by the stuff we still need! Hoping some OOT family might still send some stuff

1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week? Feeling pretty good overall. I have been waking up at night occasionally with painful contractions, but nothing to be too concerned about. I guess my body is gettting ready!
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to? Sweets, and thanks to Pinterest, I feel like I am baking something and pigging out almost everyday.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.) I am still working on the nursery. I am just about done sewing the curtains and I have one or two more craft projects to do. I am so close to being done! My plan is to be done by Thanksgiving so I can spend rest of my time giving Kodi my full attention before baby arrives.
4.) Anything else to share?

1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week? I feel really good except I have a ton of back pain. Finally bit the bullet and am headed to the chiro this afternoon. I have gone 2 weeks without throwing up, which feels like a lifetime, after 20 weeks of constant nausea.
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to? I just want to eat all the time, and a lot of baked goods. I think because we were eating so well pre-pregnancy (gluten free, paleo-esque), that my body is in revolt and wants everything we don't normally have. Will have to kick myself back into shape post baby.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.) The nursery. Track season starts next week so last week and this week were my least busy weeks until baby because volleyball ended. Trying to get as much done as possible.
4.) Anything else to share? I think we narrowed our names for girls to Tessa or Delaney. Tessa is DH's favorite, Delaney is mine. Amelia is our other favorite, but it's increasing popularity turns me off (it's like #40-too common for me with our boring last name). I still like Eliza but can't get DH on board, so I think we're gonna live with Tessa or Delaney for awhile and pick one.
1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week? Nothing really happening
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to? Mostly craving chocolate which is hard b/c DH and I devoured a pan of brownies between Sunday and last night which means no chocolate fix at work (I will probably walk to the DG over lunch though and grab some tootsies!). Otherwise I'm still enjoying spicy foods, which is our norm.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.) DH took the dresser to FIL on Sunday to be refinished, we are setting up the crib tomorrow (mostly to check it is all there - we haven't painted yet), and I'm working on determining a butterfly wall decor thing. Trying to make 3d style fabric butterflies I can attach to the wall. Oh, and I bought 15 BG seconds, and a few other used dipes recently.
4.) Anything else to share? the dump in my hometown is famous for it's "Take it or Leave it" area. It's in a ritzy area, so most things left are either brand new or in EUC condition. My brother stopped by on Saturday and got himself a EUC Dutailier glider and ottoman - after my ordeal with BRU on Friday I am definitely jealous!
Top of the list - yahoo!!
1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week?
I am feeling a little blah this week, lots of sharp pains, cramping, very tired, etc. My whole pregnancy I have felt great, so I know this blah feeling means something is going to happen soon. Appt tomorrow morning, can't wait!
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to?
I don't want to eat anything. Seriously. I have no appetite and no room for food! I eat just because I know I have to.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.)
Everything is all ready for Carter, just waiting for him to show up!
4.) Anything else to share?
Last week, I was 2cm dilated and 50% effaced. Being that I have been feeling crampy and having sharp pains down there and just a general blah feeling, I am anxious to see if any progress has been made when I go to my appt tomorrow AM. I dilated all the way to 4.5 cm with Jack before I went into actual labor, so I am hoping that same trend continues this time. Fingers crossed! With the way I am feeling, I would be surprised if I make it to my due date, I feel like Carter might be making an appearance soon. Time will tell.
Score! I need to have Todd take me to the dump, I still haven't been in all the years I've lived here. It sounds so funny to say that, lol.

LOL. Awesome.
I know, right? It sounds so ridiculous. You should see the stuff people leave there.

This week's questions:
1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week?
I feel great. No appointments this week.
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to?
Nope.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.)
We're working on our baby registry.
4.) Anything else to share?
1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week? Feeling pretty good this week. My pants are getting tight...I think I might have to spring for some maternity clothes soon.
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to? I've wanted nachos/salty chips a lot recently.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.) Nope. Just thinking about all the cleaning/organizing we're going to have to get done to get the nursery in liveable shape. It's been our spare room/dumping ground for the last 4 years...*shudders*
4.) Anything else to share? We've been telling friends and the rest of our family this week. I'll probably tell work after Thanksgiving break.

Tiff- Can you change my due date to 6/3/2012?
Thanks!!

1.) How are you feeling? Any new milestones or changes in symptoms you'd like to share? Any appointments coming up this week? Good overall. My upper back has been bothering me the last two days but I think it is workout related. I will be taking it easy till it feel better.
2.) What are you currently craving/having aversions to? No real cravings other than constantly being thirsty and downing water.
3.) Working on anything baby related? (nursery crafts, registering, etc.) We went furniture shopping for the nursery this weekend and picked out a few sets we like. MIL insists on buying the crib so we can't purchase it until she comes down to visit. We want to get the nursery at least primed before Christmas. It's going to take several coats since the previous owner painted it bright orange.
4.) Anything else to share? People at work are starting to comment that I am starting to show a little. I still don't think it's much and not really anything to see in a picture.
