Ttcbean me too!!! Can barely stay awake I have stayed on the go all day so I don't just sleep but all day I felt like I could nap! And it was OHs birthday today so I made him his favorite dinner...breakfast food lol so I ate eggs sausage bacon a biscuit..and then I made him red velvet cupcakes which he loves...and I ate two of them! And then we went to get him a fishing lure and on the way home I got a small soda and we split a bag of chips..I feel like a big fat cow! But I only gained 1.2lbs in 2 weeks so I'm trying not to be too upset

There must be something going on with crabs. We got 3 crab outfits at shower #2. Every time we opened one, everyone yelled "your babies got crabs!!" It was pretty funny.
That hat is just so ridiculous that its hysterical. It will make for some good pictures.
Lo's sleep sack arrived today. Another so ridiculous that its great outfit: https://www.babyaspen.com/snug-as-a-bug-ladybug-snuggle-sack_8E.html

Sass my DD did this, from about 3 weeks old until around 3 months she would cry constantly from around 4pm until bedtime at 7. Nothing I did would console her, it was so frustrating. Some days were worse than others. Quite often I would take her out at that time of the day and that would stop some degree of crying but that period of the day seemed to go on and on forever. Really hoping this one doesn't have the same thing!
I would also get other mothers say to me that they needed me to 'shut her up because she was upsetting their babies!' They made me feel like a complete failure and like there was something wrong with DD because theirs didn't cry. DD was just a big crier though. At least I know I can handle it now if it happens this time as hard as it is. People who have an easy number 1 baby would have a big shock if they got that second time! I on the other hand am just expecting it!

Ahhh, so many BH today!! I feel pretty tight/restricted! I am glad I hit 37 weeks... ~3 more to go!!! Yeah!!

 

[pinktiara]

Ugh mason is constantly pressing his butt against my stomach feels like my already non existent belly button is going to just blow out hahah. Can't believe I have 3 weeks to go too I feel like we all started this journey not that long ago this pregnancy certainly flew by for me and now of course time has stopped.

[jtink28]

full term today, woohooo!!! hopefully will find out from the doctor today or tomorrow a section date. it might be kindof fun to pick my baby's birthday...

 

[kezziek]

Ooh Babee how exciting!!!! I can't wait to hear the news, i hope it all gos well xxxxx

Hann my newborns always seem to have the twilight zone fussy time going on too 4-7pm. I remember long evenings cluster feeding too.

Jtink that is one of the great things about a c-sec getting to know the date you will have your baby have you started your maternity leave yet?

Has anyone had their morning sickness/all day nausea return? Have felt so sick the last week. Some days are better than others like in the first trimester. I think I read it could be down to hormones changing again now we are towards the end but I don't like it, i never had it the last two times i was puttingnit down to the iron tablets but i've taken them for three weeks now so thought i should be used to them by now. I have just started taking evening primrose oil thouh as well so i suppose it could be that.

 

[jtink28]

my last day of work is on Friday, thank goodness! getting up at 5am while hugely pregnant and working 9 hours is getting old!

I can't wait to have 14 weeks off! (even if i'll have a newborn!)

 

[BellaRosa8302]

Babee - so exciting!!!! Get on here as soon as you are able and post some pics please!!!

AFM - so mentally done with work!!! Too bad I'm working straight up to my due date! Countdown til May 7th... Ugh!

 

[TTCBean]

That's exciting, Babee! Can't wait to hear about it and see some pics!

Some snoopy lady I don't know at all asked me if I dropped... lol I said "I don't know, but I can breathe a little easier"... no idea why she'd ask me since she hasn't seen my belly before. Her husband then asked when my EDD was and I said "May 5" and he replied "Oh wow, a long while yet!" ahhh I didn't consider 3 weeks a long while lol! 20 days is pretty short I'd say haha

 

[jtink28]

haha, 3 weeks is NOT a long while! in fact, I was talking to my nurse today and she mentioned that once at 37 weeks, you can go anytime.

strange question, anyone been having weird period-type pains? they aren't consistent, and don't feel like contractions, just sharp, "my period is on it's way" type pains every once in a while..weird.

i'll find out tomorrow for sure if I need a section or not. i'm a little nervous.

 

[jtink28]

and snoopy people are the worst. as if it's any of her business! (she's a total stranger, not your cousin or mom or friend!!!!)

today at work a delivery driver came in and asked me when I was due. when I said may 6th, he acted shocked and said, "he'll be a huge baby!!!!" I then responded (jokingly), "when are you due??" (he had quite the belly) he laughed and said he probably deserved it.

 

[TTCBean]

My midwife said the same thing, 37 weeks babies are good to go, some just decide to stay in another month! Yeah I was walking with my best friend and when we walked away she was just as taken back as I was! Totally inappropriate question to a stranger!

As for the period feeling, I've been getting it for about a week now. If I didn't know better, I'd think my period was about to show! It's accompanied by lower back ache (just like period), and then sometimes BH too.

What a jerk delivery man! That a hilarious response though, lol!

 

[pinktiara]

I wish I got to pick my date they wont do a c section here until 39 weeks unless I go into labor of course. I got the 8th of May because that's when the obstetrician is on call lol Mason is so low I feel like im holding in a watermelon Gonna finally get our bags packed this weekend just in case haha
