Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey lades so theres a few of us having boys. Is this a boys only thread? Where are the grls? I wish i could share in the experience of not having a bump until later as mine is huge and giving me gyp. Backache city. I too am sick of the 'are you having twins' comments. And i havent put any weight on yet!! m pa__sed the 20wk mark! Its all just bump. In fact i think ive lost weight from my frame and its just moved into the bump at the front. So im levelling myself out kinda. This is my first succesful pregnancy so i wasnt expecting to show this early. Girls im sad, one of my friends on the loss and miscarriage forum has just lost her 3rd baby at 12wks and i am so desperetly sad for her. I feel terrible, she had the d+c yesterday but i only checked in today so i wasnt there for her. It made me appreciate my little bundle even more than i do already. I so hpe she gets over this but its not an easy thing to go through, i know. Its the worst pain in the world, physically and emotionally. Girls we should all be so gratefull to be here talking right now about our little ones. x x x

Busy weekend ladies!!! All is well with me!!! My son's 1st b-day part was this weekend and went off without a hitch!!! I am laughing now reading all the posts because on Friday I popped! To funny!!! This morning my coworker goes "Oh my gosh you popped you didn't have that belly on Thursday!" hah!! So that is fun! I don't have my u/s until Friday the 30th so another week and a half I can't wait but still won't know what we are having until Oct!!! :) Glad to hear everything went well Patience! Heather I hope you are feeling better soon!!!! I can't say I am skinny by any means!!!! I haven't gained wait yet but I certainly have some left over from my 1st! :)

Hi ladies! I am 19 weeks along with our first baby! Mu due date is October 13th. I am super excited! I am feeling the baby move like crazy...it's such an amazing experience! I still have nausea much of the time but I am hoping maybe, just maybe, it will subside at some point. My husband and I go for our ultra sound on May 27th...yes, we will find out the s_x! I am such a planner and can't wait to find out! Good luck everyone! Keep me posted as to how you are doing!

Janda, CONGRATS! That is so fun! Let us know what you are having when you find out!!!

HI LADIES! JUST WANTED TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT WE FOUND OUT TODAY WE ARE HAVING A BABY GIRL! ALSO, TODAY I'VE REACHED THE HALF WAY POINT! WOO HOO!!!

Ooooh how exciting! Congrats! Still having BH's? Do you think that is what it is?

Janda, congrats!! I'm also due Oct 13th. I have my u/s on May 30th - we'll find out what it is - I can't wait. I too popped overnight! 4 days ago I just looked fat and frumpy... I look pregnant today - YAY! I was on a business trip this week, I got back late last night about 11pm. Because I couldn't find a direct flight back to Chicago, I had to fly through a second airport before finally making it home - the longest 5 1/2 hours of my life. The baby was giving me grief all day yesterday. I had the worst b/h I've ever experienced. I was in a tremendous amount of pain and in tears the entire way home. When I finally laid down to go to sleep, they stopped. I traveled when I was pregnat with my first and never had any issues - I wonder why traveling is not agreeing with me this time around.

hey everyone. i am just newly returning since having a bbay boy last june and i am now 18 weeks and 3 days pregnant again with baby number 4. i have three boys already and hoping for a girl this time. how is everyone feeling and how many children do you currently have? i would like to have a girl this time but everyone says that since i have 3 boys already with the same guy that my chances are pretty slim.

Thanks EJ! Yes I am still getting the BH here & there- mostly late at night when I'm laying down, but I don't take as much notice to them as I did before since the Dr. a__sured me that it was indeed BH. So, we already have our baby girls name picked out, its Gianna Bella. What do you all think of that? (we are both Italians)

Cats-I feel like my BH's are far more painful this time around. I went into preterm labor at 30 weeks last time(didn't deliver until 39 weeks!) incidentally while on a business trip but honestly...those didn't put me in tears...I would watch that. It seems a little strong to be putting you in that much pain. I always had BH's probably 10+ an hour and my doc never seemed to care but the day I got back from my trip- sounds a lot like your day they were so strong and 4 min apart and sure enough I was 80% effaced but not dilated. Anyway-what I am trying to say is take it easy because those seem a little more intense then just BH. But with that said mine are a lot stronger this time around!!! Hey I am also having my u/s on the 30th!!! I can't wait! But I am not finding out--Is anyone on here not finding out the s_x?

I'm glad to hear about the BH, I was wondering last night, I seemed to keep having them for a couple of hours and my back was killing me. Then this morning I was afflicted with MS again and lost my breakfast almost immediately. That ticked me off! That should be over right? haha. This is my 3rd btw and we found out we are having a girl! (I alread have a boy and a girl so I didn't care either way) But I am so excited. Anyone else getting varicose veins btw? I didn't get them before, maybe it's becasue it's #3?

EJ - you're right! I DO need to start taking better care of myself. I've felt fine however that last few days - no BH. If it keeps up like they were, I'll call the Doc, otherwise I'll wait till my appt on the 30th to bring it up to her. My u/s appt is at 10am, then I've got my 20wk check-up at 10:40. I'm SO excited!! As I mentioned before, I DO want to find out - I've either got to get rid of the "pink stuff" in the bas____nt or keep it : ) Either way, I'll be thrilled at whatever is kicking me in there.

JNFR - LOVE the name : ) We're Italian too. My daughter's name is Caterina. If this one is a boy, we'll have to name him after my husband's father, Ignazio. Not too crazy about the name, but it's tradition. We've decided to call him Nazio for short. If it's a girl, I'm leaning towards Michela (pronounced Meekala). Not sure about middle names yet, however. Anyone else forced to name thier child after a grandparent?

CatsMom- That's so funny- after my u/s (even though it is at 3:00pm) I go straight to my 20 week!! We both have big days on the 30th! Ooh and I love both of the names you ladies have picked out! We are not telling anyone the names this time around which was easy last time since we didn't have my son named until we went home! His name is Jacob Anthony. Our girls name is Elle Victoria or Elle Marie (gosh did I tell you guys that already?) and our boys name is Bennett Meskan (my maiden name and my sis and I are the last of them since my dad had no brothers)

Hi Ladies! Since we're all due in October, I think it's safe to say we're all about 17-21 weeks?? Our thrid trimester is quickly approaching - do we all move over to the "Third Trimester" Topic section of the forum and possibly start an "Oct Mommies" club again... LOL?? Makes sense to do that, right? This is my first forum (wish I would have done this with my first child). I just love listening to you gals and swaping stories.

MissP & Patience- you haven't posted in about a week, is everything ok with you ladies?
