Morning ladies! Well our network seems to be working good today, so I can catch up with you guys! Ekay, I adore the name Credence. What about Rae or Belle(meaning beautiful) or Ann? We had a great tiem this weekend. He has another month left, so this was a very much needed visit. I hate that he has to be gone for so long at a time.:( He watched the u/s and loved it!! He was really amazed that there was a actual baby in there!! He decided that he didn't want to know what the s_x was!! After all that and him convincing me to find out!! WHat a guy!! He is worried that he will slip up adn tell someone over beers or something liek that and he woudl be so upset at himself if he did, so he told me not to tell him!! So I know and he doesn't!! He knows that he will eventually figure it out when he see's her clothes and some stuff like that, but he is going to try not too! lol!! So I ahve to humor him now and still discuss boys names! Maybe I will just agree with the one he likes so that is decided! But he did feel her give a good kick this weekend, so I think that really opened his eyes! She is def. getting stronger and her movements are becoming much more regular. I am starting to be able to tell when she is usually awake. I loev the movements!! Dh is extreamly creeped out about the 3d4d u/s. He doesn't think you should be able to look at your baby before it is born! That kind of stuff makes him weird. But we talked adout it and I told him that I really want to get one done, so he said he will go with me, but he wont come in. So that is ok with me. I dont want him to feel weird, and he said he will look at the pics and the dvd after she is born to compare, he just doesn't want to see before! Anyone else getting one done? How many weeks should we be? is there a better time to go?? I can't believe it is 21 weeks already tommarow!! Whoo hoo!!

oh and all of our new posters, I tried to find you guys and add you to my space, but I am obviously doing something wrong, because it doesn't work for me. My account is /softbreeze200. See if you can add me from your end! I love putting faces to our crew on here!!

Sciatica is a b___h! I never got that until the 3rd trimester with my other babies (mind you by that point I had gained 35+ lbs, so that didn't help). I've lucked out so far with the heartburn, sciatica, morning sickness, etc. You poor thing, sleeping is going to be hell for you I imagine in your 3rd trimester. I forgot to tell ya'll I had gained 10 pounds in the past 6 weeks. How freaking embarrasing. So far that makes it 13 pounds total, but at the rate I'm going I will gain over 50 lbs. Can't do that, especially if I want to stay under 175 and I'm already up to 163. So no more raiding the kids Easter Candy, eating Captain Crunch as a late night snack, bagels and cream cheese in the morning or frozen pizzas for lunch. Freaking sucks. I just get so hungry. :-( Gabby, I think with Mommam cutting back her hours, Hopeful working weird hours and SB200's internet down, it's been a bit quieter.

hey gabby I am here!! And not in any mood to work, so chat away!! :) your sciatic is acting up hey? uuhhgg. That hurts so much I know. I have previous bad back injuries and have have lots of problems with my sciatic, but so far it has not given me too much trouble with this pregnancy. Try to get in to see a physio and have them give you some safe pregnancy stretches to do daily that will help relieve some of the swelling that is causing the pressure on that nerve. And lots of ice.That always seemed to give a bit of temporary relief. I have tried Chiro, but for me that just aggravated it more, but I did find that accupuncture helped immensly as well. I hope that you can find something that will relieve it, as I know it can be debilitating when your not preggers.

Ekay, I really like that name, and wow if you guys agree on it, even better!! I like the look of it spelt Creedence. And I agree I think of it as a girly name,not masculine at all. And yeah, it's your baby and who cares what others think of the name you choose. My brother named his little guy Eziekiel Makahni Kei-oi McNaughton. I love it so much, and it suits him to a tee! Adorable. They kive in Hawaii and wanted to make sure that he had some of his hawaiian culture in his name and therefore the crazy middle middle name. But it is totally up to us as parents and I have decided that I really dont care if someone I know has a child named the same name I want or if I know someone with that same name or whatever. If I like it, I am going to use it! There is my little rant for this morning!!hhmph!! lol!!

 

softbreeze200 - March 25

it is going to be really ahrd to keep it a secret from him. I always refere to her as "her" but catch myself and then refere to her as "him" the next sentance! it is already hard! I am going to have to just keep refering to her as baby. No one in the family wants to know what it is, they all want the suprise when she is born, so I have told everyone that they were unable to tell when we had the u/s, so noone asks anymore. It is my little secret. I kind of liek it though. Just her and I know! It's already girls against boys in our house!! hee hee!!

I heard that sciatica happens when you're pregnant b/c of where the baby is laying and pressing on the nerve - that's what one of the MD's at work told me. so last night me and mike were talking to her and telling her to move over and get off my nerve! every time we said it I swear to god she kicked me really hard. I guess she's comfy and doesn't want to move! haha

I'm in a bad mood too, but mainly because I am trying to eat healthier and I know there is a gorcery bag full of chocolate in my house, that I can't have. I just told my mom about the name Creedence and she said it sounds boyish too. What the hell! Maybe it's just me, but I don't see it. She doesn't care for it either, but I've got my big girl pants on and simply don't care. I just told her to wait till she's here and it will be fine. I am so freaking tired! Both my girls were up coughing continuously last night and there is no chance for a nappy-poo today. Freakin sucks. Aaaannnnd my house is a wreck. Ya'll keep your fingers crossed because we might be getting close to getting a house. We are in the 'offer negotiation' stage.

i think credence is soo pretty. soo..what in the world does Sciatica mean? what does it feel like? i have never heard of that before. Did you guys have to ask for a video sonogram or a 3d one or did your gyno just automatically do one? I have to worst headache today. of course i usually do on tuesdays. today is actually my monday bc i work on saturdays and have mondays off. :(i would much rather work m-f.

 

elizhope - March 25

OMG!!! I think I just felt the baby move! Does it feel like bubbles this early? It almost felt like gas, but I dont have any...so it must've been the baby right? Ive never felt this before, so I dont know if it is or not....

 

softbreeze200 - March 25

Well either baby really likes or really hates Taco Time! I gave in today at lunch. I am sick, feel terrible, have a wicked headache and am grumpy, so I gave in. She is kicking up a storm in there! Lol Gabby - sounds like she has an att_tude already!! Typical girls we have!! :) Ekay, I acn totally relate to trying to eat better (ok, aside from today!!) I am fearful of what the scale is going to say next week! Eliz -sciatic is a nerve that runs along your spine, through your pelvis and down your legs. When it is being compressed it hurts like hell! No position is comfortable ,and sometimes it feels liek areally bad case of pins and needles that are really sharp. I always had trouble trying to stand straight or put presure on one foot over the other and when I would walk, my legs would literally just give out from under me and I would collape. I would be parralized in that position until the pain subsided and I could stand up again. Terrible for anyone who suffers from it. And the more it is compressed, the worse your pain gets. I hope you do not have to experience it as Gabby is.

 

softbreeze200 - March 25

I would bet that is your little one in there eliz! That's what mine felt like when it started. Then I would always wait and see if there was any gas to follow!! Haa haa What a nerd hey!! Congrats!! It is truly the best feeling in the world! Kind of like little bubles popping or a little knocking!

 

gabbysally - March 25

yuppers, I agree. that's your little knucklehead!!that's exactly how I explained it to people in the beginning. isn't it fun? it's the coolest feeling. I think that will be the ONLY thing I will miss about being pregnant :)

 

softbreeze200 - March 25

Yeah, It will feel so quiet inside after these little ones make their entrance! Might just have to do it all over again!! Any takers!! Ekay - I can already see your response!! :)
