Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi ladies!! Katie it is so good to hear from you again. I was just thinking about you the other day. We were in the Aug 07 group together. This is our 6th pregnancy and hopefully 3rd baby here on earth with us. I'm due Mar 18. We have two other girls a 5 year old and a 12 month old. Felicia, I know some docs won't do VBACs and others are all for it. Courtney, yes we do plan on finding out the gender of the baby...I'm already driving myself crazy wondering and thinking about names :) They typically do the 'big ultrasound' at 20 weeks, that's when they check the heart and circulation, look at the placenta, measure the baby and the amount of amniotic fluid, they check for abnormalities and then check the gender. I hope everyone's doing well.

Kim, I do remember you from my last pregnancy. It's so fun to see some of the same mommies here again. I am so excited to find out what this baby is...I have a feeling it's a girl, but sometimes I think that's because deep down I really want another girl, although I will be just as thankful and happy with a healthy little boy. We're due just about 2 weeks apart, so cool. Well, today is hubby's bday so I've got to go wrap his present while he's out hunting....I hope he doesn't bring anything home. :)

Oh, BTW, are any of you moms on cafemom? If you are, my SN is ksandoval84 on there. I always love to add new friends. :)

Hello, I am Elodie and I'm 12 wks pregnant and due on March the 16th. I just arrived in the US (i m French and my husband is here for 18months). I had a scan in france that shows everything is normal but i need to find a Dr here. I already have a question for you: What last name are you allowed to give the baby? Mine, my husband's or both. Although we are married I still have my pa__sport and ID under my maiden name. In France we can now choose which last name to give and I'd like my baby gets the same on his/her US birth certificate as on the French one. Don't know if I made myself clear. Elodie

Hi I am Sarah and I am 14 weeks pregnant with my first

hello march mommies!! my name is tammy, i am 26 and live in indiana with my dh jeremy and my ds logan, who is now 4. my due date is march 1st im praying girl haha but boy would be just as great! i took 4 total rounds of clomid to get this pregnancy. I am feeling great, no more ms or tiredness all day long,.. so im very greatful for that!! is anyone eles near me.... And eldoie, im pretty sure you can put whatever name you want on the birth certificate, i was not married to my ds father and put the fathers last name down, but im not sure about different states..

Welcome Elodie, Sarah, and Tammy. Elodie, I believe you can put whatever last name you want on the birth certificate. I would just try to coordinate it so that it is easier to travel out of the country. I'm 14w5d and been feeling pretty good. I am surprised that I still fit in a lot of my jeans (just barely). My hips have been hurting me at night, although not as badly as they were a few nights ago. My b___bs still get occa__sionally sore, but other than that feeling pretty good. I'm just surprised that I'm still in normal clothes considering this is my second. My doc says my uterus sits a little to the back. so maybe that's what I'm not showing as soon as I thought I would be. Haha, or maybe it's a boy cuz I'm carrying differently so far.

Hi girls! I am due March 17, 2009 with our first. My husband and I are really excited about having a child. I hope everyone has a happy and healthy pregnancy.

Hello girls, Thks for ur answers. I finally found a hospital and we have an appointment next Tue with a health advisor who will help us finding a OB Dr and plan the following appointment. I m relief cause I was very worried giving birth in a different country. CodyKatie5, I too still fit into my clothes. My b___st is a bit bigger says my husband and my tummy a bit hard at some point but otherwise i m feeling good. A bit tired though. I m impatient to see my belly grows, feel its kicks.... Elodie

Big hello to all the newbies....Welcome!!! Okay so I have a question, has anyone felt any flutters yet? I thought I did last week which would have been week 13, but I think I must have been crazy. It's way o early. I think I started to feel my ds around 16 weeks, but I can't remember. My belly has started to pop out and is pretty obvious (I think). I did not show until 6 mths with my son. I am 14 weeks Thursday and head in for another Ultrasound. I am still feeling a little sick on and off throughout the day. But energy levels are getting better. I am a older Momma..39 ouch! so I am pretty tired most of the time.

I am due on March 13th :) I had my screening and everything looked good - got the news back yesterday. I have one daughter that is 14years old, and have had two miscarriages before this pregnancy. I was told this was going to end up in a miscarriage as well.... but all is good so far :) Still scared :(

Denise, I am almost 15 weeks and I sometimes think I feel flutters too....I didn't really acknowledge that I was feeling movement with my daughter until about 16.5 to 17 weeks with my daughter. It's like, I think I feel movement, but then if I don't feel it again for a while I think it wasn't movement. All I know is that I can't wait to feel baby move on a consistent basis. I think that eases a lot of our momma fears when that starts to happen.

Welcome Jodeey, so glad your pregnancy is going well. Katie, I can't wait to feel movement also, just for the rea__surance. I really think I must have felt gas or something LOL and thought it was flutters. The baby is only 3 1/2 inches right now, so the odds are slim.

This is my and my boyfriends 2nd attempt (1st was not together). Both previously married to not so great people. I was about 13 weeks along when I lost my daughter and his daughter was still born at full term. I am 15 weeks (soon to be 16 weeks) and am due on March 1st. I've been think I'm feeling the baby but I'm not really sure. Too me it feels a little like my stomach growling but it's not growling (if that makes sense). I'll be happy when I can know for sure that I am feeling the baby. My b/f has been very happy but very scared at the pregnancy. I stopped worrying when I past the 13 mark but he has until the baby is born to worry. The heart rate for his baby had dropped a few days prior to when his wife didn't notice anymore and some to find out her umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck. So I ordered a fetal heart monitor for him today. I think it will give him sort of relief to be able to hear the heartbeat himself.

Welcome Brandie. I am sorry to hear of your loss and your boyfriend's loss. I can definitely identify w/your b/f....I lost my daughter at full term due to a cord accident (three times around her neck) a little over a year ago. Going through another pregnancy after a loss is hard, but I just have to trust this baby to God. He's ultimately in control anyways and it takes away my anxiety over the situation. My hubby is the same as me, but you can tell we both are just anxious to hear a screaming baby this time.

Hi Brandie, congrats on your pregancy. Sounds like everything is moving along nicely. It was a good idea to get the fetal heart monitor. I may get one later on in the pregnancy. I had my 14 week appoint. today and the baby looked great on the scan. It's always a relief for me. Doc said I should start to feel movement around 18- 20 weeks. We'll see, I keep thinking I felt my ds around 16 weeks. This baby was bouncing and flipping all over the place, so hopefully it will be sooner than later.
