Yes, me too. I'm trying to thank Foxtrot for her post about thistle and vitamin k, but it won't let me. So, thank you Foxtrot!

How is everyone holding up? I'm nearing the end of the second tri now and starting to feel very pregnant.

I'm feeling very pregnant too, Fox! I'm 32 weeks tomorrow so I'm in the home stretch! They "say" she should come sometime between 37-39 weeks based on her measuring 2 weeks ahead from 19 weeks. I always expect my babies to be late like my DS1 and get things all set and ready in case they do come early! My last two have gotten progressively early so who knows!

I'm just thankful I won't have gained a ton of weight this time! My weight has all but stopped since 28 weeks. I'm sitting at around 18-19 lbs. I'm sure I'm good for another 3-5 [emoji6]!

Oh, and I've developed a Zulily obsession! I've already bought her Christmas dress and have 5 more dresses for the colder months sitting in my cart [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]! At $8-$9 dollars each, I'm thinking that's a bargain!!

My boys were born at 36 & 38 weeks and I have GD so I'm hoping for this little man to arrive at the same time. I'd rather be induced to be honest, with my last labour being so fast.

I am feeling so pregnant too! I am only 25w 4d, but I am measuring 29! Ugh. And I have only gained 5 lbs so far. I am praying I can keep it under control this time. The heat is helping since I am never hungry. I will most likely deliver by 38w, so I only have 12-13 weeks to go. One of these days we will come up with a name for this new little one too! Oh my. It is getting so close to our group meeting these little ones!!!

I'm waddling everywhere these days lol. I started eating dates every day 4 weeks ago with hopes my cervix will be nice and soft and my waters stay intact. There's studies which say this is what happens with women who eat them consistently for the last couple of months of pregnancy. I have not weighed myself in 2 months, midwife skipped the scale last time. So I have no idea how I'm doing in that department, but based on size, I haven't gained anything. Belly is starting to stick out more and that's about it :)

Got myself an instant pot (my other one is in storage, bleh) and I'm gonna start batch cooking and freezing. I don't want any food stress with a newborn lol.

Cosmo, I read that study about the dates and ate then towards the end of my pregnancy with DS2 and this one. Pro tip: if you stick a box of dates in the freezer they are amazing on a hot day. They never totally freeze solid, they just get super chewy. :bigsmile:

I'm 32 weeks in a coups days. I'm starting to get roouuunnddd lol. But I've only gained 12-13lbs so I'm happy with that. I can just tell I've reached the "fattening" phase for baby AND mommy haha.

I hope I go early. But I doubt I will. Shouldn't have gone on my daughter's due date, I just got lucky cuz I knew the doctor on the floor when I went in for spotting. So he offered to induce me. Of course I jumped on it lol. Also- baby is measuring dead on to the day.

I have a final ultrasound on Monday to check my low placenta. Which I'm sure has moved by now. But if it hasn't then I might get more US's and get to go early! We'll see!

Nann3r- I hope your cervix has moved up! I have only gained 16-18lbs and haven't gained any in 12 weeks. She had a major growth spurt during that time and started measuring 2.5 weeks ahead [emoji51]at my 19 week scan. I doubt I'll gain more than 1-3 more lbs- This typically happens I all of my pregnancies.

I hope you go early! Just not too early [emoji6]! It's always nice to not need any interventions, although they are necessary if needed.

🤞🏻for you! I can't wait to know what you're having! I'm sure you're getting excited too! Have you thought of any names?
