glad to hear everything was good momma!! so we went to the doc yesterday too. I've gained 17 lbs!! is that bad? I started at 153 (I'm 5'8"). I was kind horrified!! anyway, my blood pressure was a little high but ok, but the protein in my urine was fine so doc wasn't worried about the swelling. of course yesterday it was the best it's been in weeks so he didn't get to see it at it's worst - but he still wasn't concerned and said to expect it to only get worse once summer comes, sounds fun! I also did the glucose screening and it came back perfect. so we had a good report card from the doc yesterday! that glucose drink sucked though, it didn't taste soooo bad, but it made me feel crazy :)

Dangit Mommam, trying to give me a heartattack! I missed the bad post yesterday so that was the first thing I read this morning. Nice way to get my heart rate up this morning! I am so glad things checked out okay. I never bled/spotted with any of my pregnancies up until this one. I usually spot after s_x and I am a total nervous wreck with the doppler for a few days. Did they make sure your placenta was stuck on there good too? Glad your swelling is just a pain in the a__s Gabby and nothing serious. I feel ya on the weight gain. I started at about 150lbs at 5ft7in and at my 20 week appt I had gained a total of about 12 or 13 lbs! So I am sure by my 24 week appt I will be up another 5 or 6 lbs. What REALLY sucks is last summer I tried really hard dropped from 180 to like 148 and now I am putting it aaaallllll back on. Okay ya'll, I'm not kidding and this isn't some little worry-I seriously think my tummy is shrinking. I look like I'm not even pg! Like maybe 16 weeks. I don't get it, but it's making me crazy! I could almost suck my stomach in flat this morning. She's still in there-I know that, but I don't understand why I would go from pregnant belly to not so much pregnant belly in just a few days. I will take a picture to prove it!!!!!

ekay, maybe she's positioned in there funny, snuggled up to your intestines or something lol. i doubt she is getting smaller, somedays i look a lot smaller. and other days i look HUGE. up until about 18 weeks i didn't even really look pregnant, now well i popped big time. i'd say she is just in a position that makes her seem smaller, she's stretched out or something.

Morning Ladies!! Have fun seeing Mason today Mommam!! I am sure it will help settle the nerves a bit more!Gabby, glad to hear the swelling is nothing to worry about, but yeah it will be a pain in the a__s! Is that your total gain so far?? If so, that is not bad at all is it?? I think if I add up all of my appointments I woudl be close to that too. How much should we be gaining at this point??Yikes! Sorry to hear about your lab results Cnas. Although my cousin is taking nursing as well and she said it is really tough and having troubles keeping her average up, so sounds like you are doing good! Ekay - she is probably just hiding in there. I can't pull up your pic on this computer at work, but I am dying to look at it. Maybe some bloating went away? I know yesterday I felt like I had regressed a month or so, and my belly felt so much smaller, but today it is back and seems bigger. Maybe bellies do that??I am sure she is growing just fine and just being a stinker in there.

yeah, 17 total so far. I'm glad you guys are around the same number then, it just seems like with 4 more months to go there's so much more to gain, I mean, casey's only 1 lbs 3 oz of it!! ekay, I don't think your belly looks much smaller. I'm not doubting you though - I'm sure what you know what you're seeing since it's your body! I don't know what to tell you though - I think as long as you're hearing her hearbeat and feeling her, I think you can relax. I defanitely have bigger and smaller days too.

Thanks for trying to make me feel better about my phantom belly! I will just take comfort in her little heartbeat. I have to file my taxes today. Boooo! But I for sure need that $2100 economic stimulus check/credit!

Ekay - See with me I am thinking that I am needing something to stres over now, since things have been going good. I think that is whay I am getting paranoid about sleeping on my back even though I knwo in the back of my mind that if it was doing any damage my body would alter itself. I am sure Creedence is just being a stinker and in a funny spot that is making your belly feel more compact. You've had a couple babies... do they make you worry all the way through about allkinds of things or is there ever actually that"blissful pregnancy time period" where evrything is great and rosey and you just float along with no worries?? I think I missed that boat if there is one!! Had a bad start to the morning for my eating... one of the guys brought donughts in and of course my two all time favorites are in there - how does a person decide?? I didn't.. I ate both of them!!! Talk abou tcomplete lack of will power - should hav enot eaten either of them, but of course all the guys are no help and tell me that it is ok because I am pregnant. WHAT A LOAD OF BS!! they don't ahve to get rid of the wieght after she is born!! Ahhh... help me girls!! I need to have my mouth sewn shut!! :[

SB200, I am the same way! For the past probably 4 weeks, I haven't really been freaking out about anything, so I guess it is that time. I don't remember freaking out NEAR as much with my others as I am with this one. I remember with my son, I didn't start showing until about 6 months, which is only 2 weeks away for this pregnancy , but in my mind I am comparing to my girls at which point I was very round by now. Maybe Creedence is really a Clarence and I am showing like I did with my other boy. Just kidding. Don't feel bad about the doughnuts Sb200, I would have done the same exact thing. Hell, yesterday for lunch I had cheesecake! AND Lucky Charm cereal for a nightime snack. You see, I have something pyschologically wrong-I eat a lot because somewhere in my twisted mentality I think I will get a bigger baby belly, but in actuality I am just getting a bigger a__s. Which consequently makes my belly look smaller. Maybe that's why it looks like it shrunk! (J/K-haha)

LOLOLOL!! Ekay - we sound too alike!! LOL!! I had lucky charms for a bedtime snack last night too!! very healthy!! Sometimes I wonder if I didn't have that extra layer on my belly if it would be a lot smaller than it is or if I might actually be able to see her move in there!! Ahh the joys of pregnancy!! Turns us into raving lunatics for 10 months!! :)

What a freaking coincidence! I am currently getting pummeled in the belly b___ton right now. It's a nice rea__suring feeling though. I was wondering that recently too SB. If I hadn't overeaten, what would my belly really look like!? I will call it my summer coat.

all my movement is sooooo low, I only feel it in the same spot - its like by my pelvic bone. I asked the MD if it was too low and she was going to fall out, he just laughed at me :) he said if it was that easy there would be no need for epidurals! but is that wierd that I only feel it in one spot and it's soooo low?? this is gross, but when I have to go #2, I'm scared to push b/c I think she's going to fall out! I'm so wierd!!!!

gabby you are so not weird, i think the same thing! lol. but shes a low kicker a lot too, i think cuz she is still head up. but i get those nice kicks and punches up high sometimes too. she really kicks low when i am bent over, lol. everyone says i should get to the hospital 3 wks before my due date, cuz my daughter came so fast, lol. My water broke, with no contractions before hand, we get in the car 5 min later, the contractions start at 5 min apart and by the time we get to my room an hour later they are only a min. apart and i am 7 cm dilated!!!! i was in excutiating pain!!!! bring on the drugs!!!! lol but she was born about 4 hours after my water broke, she came very quick.
