1. How far along are you? Any milestones this week? 15 weeks, pretty sure I'm feeling a little bit of movement! Can't wait. It's my favorite (only) part of pregnancy I like.
2. News/AWs/vents to share? I had a UTI last week and am on antibiotics. Now I have a yeast infection. Yuck.
3. QOTW - Has anyone said anything obnoxious to you since you got pregnant? Advice or comments about your pregnancy? Almost every person I've told has asked if it was planned. Why do ppl think they can ask that?
Also, I'm having a very hard time dealing with my SIL. She keeps giving me advice about things that she's read that can help with pre eclampsia. (I had it last time.) I keep shutting fee down and I am worried I'm going to explode at her and cause family drama. I finally realized last night that with every "advice" she gives me it makes me feel like she thinks it was my fault it happened before. Nothing I did helped last time. And it wasn't my fault. Fuck her.
1. How far along are you? Any milestones this week? 6.5 weeks

3. QOTW - Has anyone said anything obnoxious to you since you got pregnant? Advice or comments about your pregnancy?no, only 3 people other than you guys know.
1. How far along are you? Any milestones this week? See ticker, not really just got AFP & scheduled my U/S. Oh & I'm feeling kicking more often now.
2. News/AWs/vents to share? Vent--my life is crazy busy & now I'm suck again for the fourth time in 2 months. I really, really am consisting quitting my job now, today sucked. I'm sick of DH being swamped at work. Generally life blows a little bit right now.
3. QOTW - Has anyone said anything obnoxious to you since you got pregnant? Advice or comments about your pregnancy? Yes, several people...comments & questions--no advice
2. Nothing new as of now. We have another ultrasound on Monday. Hope that the baby is ok (had heart decels during the last one) and that we can find out the sex.
1. 39 weeks and 5 days! "Due" on Sunday! I'm amazed to have made it this far, give the blood pressure issues I was having this summer. At one point my dr was talking about inducing at 37-38 weeks...
2. I really hope to go into labor naturally, as i'd like to hae an intervention-free birth. I'm pretty bummed that the full moon didn't start labor. I'm bummed hat last night's rainstorm and drop in barometric pressure didn't start labor. I'm bummed that last weekends sex didn't start labor (side note, that was the definition of "duty" sex. I'm so physically unwieldy it was... Grim). Other vents: people at work don't seem to realize that I am a total tentative for anything work related after today. I actually had our in-house legal staff say "I'll touch base with you on this" at the end of next week. I just laughed; good luck asshole, I gave this issue to you 6 weeks ago wih the goal of having it wrapped up by November 1. Have figuring it out on your own while I'm on maternity leave!
I I don't go into labor this weekend I still plan on coming in to work on Monday. I think I'd go bat shit crazy at home, and our to-do list is done. And it'll be fun to see the look on people's faces when I tell them I was due yesterday.
3. My least favorite question right now is "how are you feeling?" I KNOW it comes from a place of excitement, but it's just annoying. My typical response is: still pregnant!
ffbride - so exciting that your nursery is almost done!!!!
We're working on cleaning out the closet in the guest room we're converting, and are potsing the bed/matress on CL. BUT the rug, contoured changing pad, and a few other odds and ends for the nursery arrived today. It's making it so real!
1. How far along are you? Any milestones this week? 30 weeks. I've started feeling nauseous in the middle of the night - does that count as a milestone?
2. News/AWs/vents to share? Not really; had a very nice baby shower hosted by my mom and sister this weekend.
3. QOTW - Has anyone said anything obnoxious to you since you got pregnant? Advice or comments about your pregnancy? A lot of people comment on how small I am, which is starting to get old. I've had a couple people tell me I need to eat more. Eff off - I've gained 19 lbs and my doctor is fine with that!
1. How far along are you? Any milestones this week? 36 and 4
2. News/AWs/vents to share? The weekly BPPs and biweekly NSTs continue to go well! Baby measured 7 lbs 1 oz last week. He could turn out to be a pretty big baby!
3. QOTW - Has anyone said anything obnoxious to you since you got pregnant? Advice or comments about your pregnancy? Other than my sister telling me how much different a boy will be compared to my two girls, no, not really any obnoxious comments. Sis only has one kid, a 1 yo DS, so I guess that makes her an expert, lol.
1. How far along are you? Any milestones this week? Just about 21 weeks - on Sunday.
2. News/AWs/vents to share? We found out on Tuesday that baby is a GIRL!!! I am over the moon to give DD a baby sister!
3. QOTW - Has anyone said anything obnoxious to you since you got pregnant? Advice or comments about your pregnancy? Since our DD's will be 5 years apart, I got many, "We have been waiting for this news," comments when we first told people I am pregnant. Also, a few, "I bet your DH is hoping for a boy." I think that one bothered me the most. He actually wanted another little girl - don't push your "perfect family/men obviously want boys" views on me!
