How Far Along Are You? 29w3d
What's Up Physically This Week? just the same backache I've had mostly. I got a little dizzy at Kmart yesterday but it passed quickly.
What's Up Emotionally & Mentally This Week? I'm very sensitive and can cry at the drop of a hat. I'm not usually the type to make an issue out of every little thing someone says but bf jokingly called me bulbous last night and it made me cry.
What Are You Reading - Books, Magazines, Web Sites? The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding.
Random Things Of Note? Not pregnancy related (anymore) but today is my son's 10th birthday

How Far Along Are You? 27 weeks 4 days

What's Up Physically This Week? Over the weekend I had some horrible lower back pain that wrapped around my abdomen it was so bad I was nauseous from it. After the 3rd episode lasting 2 hours long the doc told me to go to the hospital, and they couldn't figure out what was wrong. The nurse said it may possibly be just growing pains, that they can be worse the more pregnancies you have. It just seemed too painful for that.
Other than that, feeling huge, achy inner thigh vag area in mornings, stuffy nose.

What's Up Emotionally & Mentally This Week? I'm actually doing good in that area.

What Are You Reading - Books, Magazines, Web Sites? Ina May's Guide to Childbirth and What to eat when you're Expecting.

Random Things Of Note? I have my 2nd try at the 3d ultrasound tomorrow!

How Far Along Are You? 33 weeks today

What's Up Physically This Week? HEARTBURN OMG. It has been BRUTAL. I can't eat anything, I can't sleep, so now I'm a WAY overtired mess :( Thankfully my attack of lots of milk, Pepcid AC and Tums last night worked, and I finally slept for the first time in three days.

What's Up Emotionally & Mentally This Week? Feeling guilty for feeling sooo ready to be done. I still have ~7 weeks to go!

What Are You Reading - Books, Magazines, Web Sites? Nothing pregnancy related.

Random Things Of Note? Had my first L&D trip for this pregnancy (and hopefully only, seeing as I'm homebirthing!). I've been super crampy for the past few weeks, and the other day it was coupled with back pain (both signs of preterm labour), so in I went. Monitored the baby's heartrate, my (lack of) contractions, checked my cervix (0cm) and did a fetal fibronectin test (negative). Basically, everything is fine- this baby is just giving me a hard time!

I went to L&D the end of August for the same craminess you are describing. They monitered me just like you and I had no contractions and I was 0cm too. I felt silly after since they couldn't find anything *wrong* (I worry sometimes people think I'm faking pain), but my husband kept telling me better safe than sorry.

HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!

and bra extenders? What is this you speak of. I have been putting off buying new bra's because I'm cheap... but I'm spilling out of the ones I have :(

Also, what is baby bargains? Is it a book or website?

[thirdtimecharmd]

I <333 Baby Bargains. I will say that I didn't like Baby 411 nearly as much, not only because some of it was different than my, ah, preferred parenting style ;) but also, I think more of it is written by the doctor co-author rather than the Fields, so the writing style is a little bit different.

Happy Birthday!
