Pregnancy Info HOME

Amy, Kendra, Heather, Tina and Kolleen thank you girls so much!!! That is why I love our group here...I feel al ot better and know I've got that guilt complex thing going and there is no reason for it :) I know it will all work out and I need to stop worrying about the little things that are in the future anyways. KOLLEEN, we are going to move April 2nd I think! Or April 3rd...I don't think it matters as I see the October girls are already coming over here! WOW, can you believe it? I remember thinking July was soooo far away and now it's getting closer and closer. Oh, I'm also doing the nursery in pink and green! I love the colors together. I also like brown with it...pink green and brown (or pink and brown is cute too). Well, lots to do today and it's sunny so I'm going to TRY to get outside, lol. I am paler than pale. I don't want to tan really but once it gets warm I seriously need some color. Being blonde and pale is scary.

OMG! I am so pale too, STEF! My hubby says my skin glows and it hurts to look at me directly. With my hair it's natural dark brown now I almost look gothic. I guess this summer I will look like a pregnant vampire chick, lol! Anyone planning any summer vacations? We usually go to Ocean City, Maryland with the boys every June, but we won't be this year, it would be too close to my due date so we will have to think of something else. I'm just too nervous to travel when I'm pregnant, and since I'm at risk for premature labor, I will NOT be going anywhere for the rest of my pregnancy. I'm just too concerned that something would happen and don't want to regret anything.

Forgot to tell you all! Finally after 2 weeks of trying Andrea (my hubby) finally got the chance to feel the baby kick! I have an anterior placenta, so it took a while b4 I felt any movements strong enough to feel thru the placenta, os obviously it took a while for it to get strong enough for him to feel. It was on Easter night. It's nice to share with him, but he's not really a touchy-feely kind of guy, so I think it was more important for me that he feel it than it was from him. Ok, just wanted to share!

Good morning ladies - Heather - I didnt' think didn't have a life you fruity I just figured you were East Coast but being at work at 7am East Coast time really explains it.....Precious, Kolleen, STEF, AMY - all - I will officially be in my 3rd Trimester on April 2 or 3 so we can move over then - I know it will be early for some of you but I don't want to go alone - I'll be the only one there if that's the case for at least a good week or 2. So I have my appointment today - at 430p I'll let you guys know how it goes - I hope I haven't put on too much weight.....a pound or 2 would be fine I am starting to get nervous though cuz I really don't want to balloon up I really can't afford to - before you guys get a little sensitive - let me say - I am eating and eating well and often - just that last couple of weeks I haven't made good choices so I am mentally preparing myself for the consequences of my actions! LOL ......I am not dieting at all - I am just trying to make better choices - I am very close to 200 pounds - even if it doesn't look like it ....and I just want to take it easy so I won't have so much to lose after ---- I have been losing my appet_te in the evenings again ....so I eat something light - last night I had fruit with cool whip and water - and it hit my sweet spot and I was completely satisfied! Cor didnt' even eat - when it gets warm we go about a week with light dinners....I see a whole lot of BBQ nigths in our future - chicken, steaks, burgers....it's such easy clean up. I went to bed so early it felt great! I only got up once to pee it was wonderful I feel so rested today - yesterday I was realy draggin a__s! LOL I think my bedtime might change from 900-ish to 830ish --I do want to start walking with my boys once school is out - we can walk around the block or something so I get moving! Well I'll check in more - Stef/Kolleen - love the pink and green and considered as they had some cute bedding but I was drawn to the pink/brown instead!

AMY - that is awesome that your hubby can feel the baby now! Mine likes to feel her everynight before bed - it's nice cuz I don't remember him being like that last time

Amy, isn't it so much sweeter when they can feel it too?! I love that. It does seem that this little one calms down every time Jessie puts his hand on my belly but he's gotten some good hits and always smiles :) TINA, good luck on your appt. today!!! No worries on moving over early. I'm only 2 days behind you but it is probably better for us all to just move so we don't leave any stragglers here on this board! I just still am shocked I'm going to the 3rd trimester in a week. Crazy! OH KENDRA, I forgot earlier to post when you mentioned being sad that we won't all chat after the babies, but I know a group of girls that I used to be a part of (but I miscarried) moved on to the Infant Care forum after they had their babies and are still there. They were due last August so it's beena while and they all still chat! I know it will get hard when we are all busy, but we have a way to still post to each other :)

good moring everyone. well i got another funny baby story for u all. last night i got the hicups and then lylee got the too. so i would hic-up and she would hic-up. we went back and forth for a few mins. it was so funny. so course the hubby was asleep so he didnt get to feel them. lol.... TINA- OMG 3rd TRI is next week???? oh wow its like right around the corner that we are due...... i still trip out that im preggo. like when i get up in the middle of the night ill touch my belly and think wow im big, oh yeah im having a baby. i gotta just remember that lylee will be here very very soon. i cant wait. im so excited!!

Hey guys, It's a beautiful day here - kinda warm and really sunny - LOVE it! Yea Kendra - like Stef said we can all chat on the infant forum after the babies are here, it will be fun to hear everyone's stories and I will have lots of questions for you guys that are already mommies! Amy - I too look like Casper the pregnant ghost - OMG - I get scared when I picture my puffy pale legs in a pair of shorts - so...I'm not even gonna go there! lol. It's all good though because after baby is here - bring on the tan. I only live like an hour away from O.C. - we go down all the time. This year is gonna be a killer with the gas prices, so we will be staying home alot more. Tina - I hope all goes well at your appt. today - let us know how you make out. Aren't you getting another u/s soon? I'm sorry I can't remember when you said, just to make sure Megan is really a Megan and not a Miguel! lol. Stef - I've never had that orgasm "thing" but d__n am I jealous! All I can say is Go girl!! - Seriously, I've heard when you have an orgasm while pregnant it does make the uterus contract - but no biggie - it happens to everyone and it doesn't affect baby at all. Just think - you don't even really need Jesse anymore for right now! lmao. Kolleen - that is a cute story about the hiccups :)

STEF - yes that is normal - my body does that even when I am NOT pregnant - lucky me huh?? My husband always laugh when I tell him I had s_x without him again....LOL - it's the craziest thing don't worry I dont' believe that s_x can bring on labor only when you are ready to go into labor already - STOP WORRYING about preterm labor you fruity girl...LOL KOLLEEN cute story about the hiccups - yes tis the season to be pale - but I stopped tanning years ago - especially my face I don't want to look like Magda on Something about Mary..LOL -- Yes HEATHER - he is going to order another u/s today so hopefully it won't take too long this time! yes no miguels allowed only Megan LMAO - casper - girl you crack me up KENDRA =- that's great about school! I think DSIN is dear son in law??? HILLARY - girl you come on over I think we are all going over on April 3rd! WOO HOO the home stretch ...dang this thread is getting so long already - between Amy and Me this week it's crazy long LOL ---

tina- i thought that too. but i wasnt sure; so many d__n abbreviations. lol

tina- is it normal to have another u/s? i dont get another one. atleast i dont think so. i have had the one thats dates me and then the ones to make sure all body parts were growing normal. so is it normal to have another one?? cuz...cuz... i want one too!!!! lol

kolleen, I want one too but I'm thinking we have to wait till the end? When do you get the last u/s normally? Anyone here know? I'm pretty sure the doc said I get one more. TINA, I know I am a total fruitcake...I need to get off this preterm labor thing but I swear I just have been too freaked out by some of the other experience I've read about on here...Ok, this was weird today! Ava was super active this morning and then more quiet in the afternoon so I took a shower and then afterwards got the doppler out. Every time I put it on my belly she kicked it and then I started to feel bad and wondered if the sound waves from it could be hurting/bothering her? then I started to feel this little pulse type feeling down low on the right (near panty line) and I was having a hard time getting her heartbeat but I got what sounded like hiccups everytime the pulse feeling came I could hear it on the doppler! It was INSANE! I was really afraid I was getting her too worked up because then I was bound and determined to get a hb so I stopped for a sec then tried again and I found it for about 3 seconds and it was 167 which is higher than her normal rate. I'm finding it harder to get her h/b now than I did earlier in the pregnancy. I wonder if that is normal...
