Mari- I think Connor is adorable too. For us it was nixed because of the French pronunciation problem... Also, I like the name Logan because once I saw a little British boy at Logan Airport in Boston. He said "Look, mummy! My name is everywhere!"

Ginge- Oh soooo cute! I wonder if he's a redhead too!?? 
now I really need to schedule a 3D/4D scan cause I'm not sure if my doctor will order more scans or not, but on the 20 week scan she never even did 3D/4D which so found so odd.
It's 37 degrees this week here in Florida which is so unusual for us, it's usually hot but not that hot. I'm just staying inside cause going outside for minutes I come back drenched in sweat.

I had the medela swing breastpump with my DD. I chose that one because of the great reviews. I am a SAHM and only pump a little to have a reserve or when I am going somewhere, etc. So it worked out great for me, was able to pump what I needed, was comfortable, didn't take too long. If I worked I would def go for a double one. I'll be re using mine this time around too.
Love the owl theme! I had an owl theme with my DD, so cute!
That is great advice on the granny panties! I had huge ones lol and they actually were a lifesaver after birth because I had a c section and they went over and didn't bother my scar! Def take them to the hospital just in case.
Hopie I hope your fluids come back good!
I love those names! I am not keen on middle names and none of my kids have them but I say it's ok to share! I know of a case of parents that liked a name so much that they used it for both their daughters, the first name!
that seems a little too much to me lol but I think middle names is totally fine!
Xan he's adorable! And wow so big!, my DD was less than that at birth full term! What a chuncker!
Sorry it's so hot there! I live in South America and we have an average weather all year round, no winter and no extreme heats, so I like that. Have a good trip!
I have been trying to finish up baby nursery! I feel like I have so much already just need to put it all together. My DD is on vacation so it seems like getting anything done takes forever now! I am going to a baby fair today, hopefully I'll find some cute stuff and some discounts!

Last night I had my first labor nightmare...
TMI...in the dream I was leaning over the bathroom sink doing my makeup and the pressure of the counter on my bump made my bump go "pop!" like a bubble and then water was everywhere and then I expected contractions to start but they never came and I was too afraid to ring the doctor because I was in denial that I was going into labor early. I was trying to rationalize everything like yes...my water broke, but I don't have contractions and I'm only 31 weeks pregnant so this can't be happening and I'm not going to the hospital.
Bizarre dream. Hahaha.

Aman- I've had a few like that! I keep dreaming I had her early and then the entire day my mood is so weird, but it's so true every time I go to the sink (and I'm only 5'1) my bump hits the sink and I'm like umm this doesn't feel right!
I want her early but by early I mean 37-38 weeks!

Lovely bump, Mumma!
I keep having dreams where the baby (usually a girl) comes out talking. In the latest one, I was worried about breastfeeding, and the baby said "Don't worry, I'll walk you through this!" In my dreams I'm always worried, because I know that I didn't give birth on time and that's going to be a problem.
Recently I had to see a geneticist about my tendency to break bones. The doctor is at a children's hospital, so on intake they measured me for head circumference, height and weight like they would do a child. Well, I came back at the 99th percentile for height and head circumference and the 90th percentile for weight for children "in my age range". Every time they take these measurements now, it brings me back to that strange experience. Oh, and the tests all came back normal.

Love the pictures ladies! You both look great!
Sweety, good luck on that test. FX for you!
Borr, both daughters same first name? WOW generally I try not to be judgemental of other people's parenting choices but that is a little over the top lol Did they at least give them different spellings or different nicknames? I think my biggest issue with it is that I'm easily confused in the best of circumstances lol
Thanks everyone for all the pump advice. I'm thinking of the pump-in-style advanced with the on-the-go tote. They don't offer the tote through insurance, so it's kind of expensive for a tote bag, but maybe someone will get it for me as a gift....
aman, I've been having weird dreams too, but most of mine aren't positive. Xan, I love that your dream baby said that

Lovely pics ladies, as for pumps I have the avent isis in electric pump but it can also be used as a manual. When my son was born I soon discovered I had to pump cease I had too much milk I could pump 5oz from each breast in about 10 minutes or so 
its the reason I had to give a dummy at 3 weeks old because when he wanted to comfort feed it was swallow or drown

Nice bump pics ladies.
Appointment well went and GTT results will be given in two weeks. Feel so far away!
Oh, and c-section date is fixed to 10th September. Can't imagine baby will be here soon. I am freaking out.

Baby being very quiet this morning 
it's very unsettling. Usually has a good wriggle after breakfast. Was VERY active yesterday so perhaps baby is just a bit pooped today. Had some wriggles but not on the usual scale. Have tried lying down to focus on things but got Sophie on my own so it's not really happening. Will try again after lunch when madam is napping.

Had a same situation yesterday Mumma. Baby might have changed position where yoj can't feel much. Mine has turned from head down to breach and hence reduced movement felt.

Have you tried drinking ice cold juice and maybe a piece of chocolate and lay on your left side? I had to do that with DS when he hadn't moved in hours and I called my doctor and she suggested that. Luckily he started to kick again shortly after. I'm sure your bubs is fine but maybe having a snooze fest
