Re: ******Official SEPTEMBER 2013 Mommies Thread******
Yeah about the 3rd trimester.
I go for my glucose test in the morning and then I think I'm only to appts every 2 weeks already.
I am the opposite of you though. I can't believe how quickly time is flying by. I have so much to do for baby #3, but just haven't gotten my act in gear. Hopefully soon.
Stay cool and the hydrated in the heat

I'm with you! I can't believe how fast it's going! So much to do and so little time! I think it def goes faster if this is your second or third or more pregnancy! I remember my first pregnancy took forever!

Re: ******Official SEPTEMBER 2013 Mommies Thread******
I'm in the "I can't believe how fast it's going" group lol. I can't believe in 10weeks (+/-) I'm going to have a son!  I'm def ready to be a mom, I'm just not ready for all the worrying that comes along with it. I just can't believe i'm at this stage in my life. I feel like I just graduated from undergrad! Weird.
Oh question, when is everyone filling out the hospital registration forms and having your doctor fill out work for your job? I have my growth sono on the 8th so I'm thinking I'll give my doc the paperwork then?
thoughts?

I filled out the hospital paperwork today while doing my glucose test and handed it right in.
My doctor likes to wait as long as possible to fill out the work paperwork since it will have to be updated if you go out earlier or later, etc

We're doing a Classic Wininie the Pooh theme. The previous owners had this room as their nursery as well and had a hand painted mural done on 2 of the wallls. The other walls are painted yellow. Although this is never a theme I would have chosen, everyone was telling me I was crazy to paint over the mural so I gave in lol.

Updates:
Had my prenatal massage and it was awesome!!! I felt so good afterwards. Definitely recommend getting one!
Went for the 3D sono but  had their hand over their face the entire time. The little we did see looked just like DD though! we scheduled a redo for 2 weeks from now. I hope cooperates this time!
Had my 28 week sono last week and baby weighs 2lbs 12oz
C-Section is scheduled for 8am on 9/16! But I have a feeling I'll go early like I did with DD.
Had a regular prenatal appt today and I am up 20lbs at 28w6d
I'm starting appointments every 2 weeks! Getting close!!!
Hope everyone is staying cool and comfortable!!

Hey Ladies!
What are you up too???
We had our Big Sister Class and tour of the hospital yesterday! Carlie was so excited to change her doll's diaper and to see where here baby sister and I are going to sleep!
It was a really cute class, we had it at Winthop and I recommend it to anyone who is on their 2nd!
I *started* cleaning the nursery room out (former office) but that lasted about an hour. lol
Next appt on Tuesday at 32 weeks. And next sono at 34 weeks!
Hope all you ladies are staying cool!

Re: ******Official SEPTEMBER 2013 Mommies Thread******
Besides cooking a baby - we haven't done much to get ready.
I have picked out some paint swatches and started looking at the old clothes in the attic. I'm surprised how many are stained. Hoping some of it comes out so we don't need a whole new neutral wardrobe :)

Re: ******Official SEPTEMBER 2013 Mommies Thread******
Same here. We had our 30w sonogram (i'm 31w but had to wait due to the holiday last week) on Tuesday and our little boy looks good! He has a full head of hair, long legs and weighs in at 4.6lbs.
My next doc appt is tomorrow.
As for the nursery, DH started ripping out the old closet so he can put the new system in. He also patched some holes around the room but that's about it lol.

Re: ******Official SEPTEMBER 2013 Mommies Thread******
Doing well... I'm approaching 31 weeks and we closed on a house in early June. So, it's been a big push to get that done. I purchased paint that is safe for PG - that way, not only was it OK for me to be around while we paint the house, but I can actually do a lot of the painting myself. DH, my dad, sister, and I did all of the rooms, ceilings, mouldings, and doors. It came out great. We did Nantucket Fog by BM for DS's nursery. We also installed the cutest little rubbed bronze and wood ceiling fan. I'm ordering new closet doors for his room as well - the ones that were there were old and mirrored so they got tossed. My dad installed all new flooring as before it was blue shag carpet lol. So, now there's a brazilian cherry throughout the whole house.
We are in the process of unpacking - DS has a good amount of clothes already! My shower, I know when it is, is July 21st so I'm doing some last minute things for that - seating, place cards, table cards, setting up of the favors. I'll post pics when it is all said and done. Which reminds me to get the camera out of whatever box it is in!
The crib and nursery furniture needs to be ordered - this particular set does not need time to come in - it usually ships within three business days so we have some time. I wanted to get some of the work done first, and the shower under my belt and then I'll do that.
We have nice shelving for his room and DH needs to hang that. I also have to order a quote for his wall - I found a website that does custom wall decals in words - they come out looking like hand painting and go on the walll/come off the wall very easily... we want a quote and then in another part of the room DS's name.
We have a birthing class, it's like 4 hours, scheduled for 8/11 at our OB's office - they go over everything - labor, delivery, CS, taking baby home, newborn care, etc. We also bought some DVD's about the same that we watched. I've been reading some books too.
We still have to schedule the hospital tour and pre-registration.
We had our 3D sonogram last night - NOT GOOD! Little one did NOT want to cooperate - kept his hands covering his face completely the entire time no matter what we did... I even tried to put on his favorite John Lennon - usually his music gets him very happy but nothing. Then, I brought in the big guns: Daddy's voice. Daddy's voice ALWAYS gets DS going - but not this time. He was OUT for the count sleeping. Then, when we were trying to get him to move, he actually looked like he started to frown/cry! Like he was getting frustrated. So, we gave up after 45 minutes of poking and trying. The technician was great - she rescheduled us for two weeks from now. We'll see how he does then. Both sets of grandparents and godmother were there and still - nothing! He is very stubborn, takes after me. lol.
I did buy a dress for the shower - I was going to use a few that I already had from last year, they looked nice, but my mom said I need something "new and special" so I went to White House / Black Market and found a dress there -- but it is not black or white lol so that's kind of cool ! :) I went up a size so the good thing is: after baby comes, I can have it sized down and wear it other places. I'm glad for that.
I guess that's it so far - lots going on!
