Pregnancy Info HOME

Mcbee, you are so lucky to find out the s_x this early. My next sono won't be until September. I am dying to find out the s_x. My husband didn't want to know with my daughter, but we are doing it my way this time! Hope everyone else is doing well. I'm still battling the throwing up and constant upset stomach. I had in my head that it lasted until week 20 with my daughter. But, I went back and looked at my preg. journal that I kept, and I recorded in there that it ended at week 14, so almost there! It must have really made an impression, I tacked on six more weeks to my memory! Anyway, had a good day today. My husband and I took Ella on her first picnic at our farm. She waded in the creek and we picked berries to put in the freezer. Sounds fun, but we came home muddy, sweaty, and itchy! But, I took pics for the sc___p book! Have a good night ladies!

Hi everyone 14 weeks today. Yay. I be having for my first OB appointment in two weeks. Can't wait to know what I am having, I am so hungry all the time and when I go eat tea I lose my appet_te its so weird. Lol. Hope everyone is well. Kirsten.

Good morning. I havent been on lately. I was in the hospital on july 7th. I was very dehydrated and was having bad stomach cramps. They gave me fluids and some meds for morning sickness in my Iv. They also gave me an ultrasound. It was so need. The baby actually looked like a baby and was moving around alot. They gave me some meds that are helping me. I feel so much better. How is everyone else? Have a great day everyone :)

Austynsmommy, you poor thing! Your morning sickness just sounds horrible. I hope you're feeling better!

good morning everyone!!! i'm 13 weeks today. YAY!!! second trimester look out! i'm glad to see everyone is doing good! austynsmommy... glad to hear the meds are working. you poor thing!!! my belly is getting HUGE!! everyone thinks it's cause im so pet_te it has no where to go. oh.. and i picked up a book.. and it is just amazing! full of laughs for us preggo gals! so all of you ladies go and pick up BELLY LAUGHS by Jenny McCarthy! it's a fun and easy read!!!!

Austynsmommy--Sorry to hear you had some troubles, hope everthing is better now. I will be 13 weeks tomorrow. I have been having some cramping in the middle of the night the past 2 nights, then I get up to tinkle and it goes away. I think it is part gas (sorry for tmi) and part uterus stretching. I was a little worried about it at first, but, I haven't had any other problems, so I am thinking it is little peanut making more room in there. I have even started feeling little bubbly feelings on my right side (where we found bean for the ultrasounds) when I am lying still in the evenings on the couch. My hubby thinks I am imagining it, but I tell you, I feel something lightly gurgling-like where the baby is. And I am already starting to show, geez! I am not a tiny thing at all, in fact I was needing to lose about 15 lbs before I got pregnant, so it isn't showing because there isn't any room LOL. I am SOOO glad I bought some maternity pants a few weeks ago, cuz there are ultra comfy and needed now. I swear I look like I am 4 months along..people have asked me if I know what I am having, and I am like, OH NO, they think I am 5 months. Oh well, I am proud of my pooch and don't even try to suck it in anymore. Hope you all are doing well.+++Cyndi+++

Hi ladies how are you all? Sorry I haven't posted in sooooooooooo long, things have been pretty hectic around here & I don't get much time to do ANYTHING on the computer lately. I am 14wks as of this Thursday & have already felt VERY slight movements, but only when I'm lying down, very exciting. Austynsmommy sorry to hear you were soooo sick. Fortunately my morning sickness has gotten better, except for last Friday I was throwing up all afternoon/night, & from the way I was feeling am really hoping it wasn't mild food poisoning (Had a craving for a McDonalds bacon & egg mc muffin, bad idea). Anyway I had my U/S last Thursday & everything looks good. The placenta is posterior as it should be (was anterior with ds) & they said my dates were correct & I was exactly 13wks so my due date is still 8th January. My 3yr dd was disappointed there was only 1 baby in there & is now convinced it is a girl as she already has a brother & said she doesn't want another one lol, I hope she's not too disappointed if it does turn out to be a boy. We found out the s_x of dd & ds so we really want a delivery surprise this time. Anyone else going to wait till the birth to find out?

I am doing pretty good as long as I take my pill and eat and drink. I am also showing now. We are going to find out the s_x but were not going to tell any of my family or friends. Congrats on your ultrasound E586467.

klc03, I've read Belly Laughs, and I completely agree - It's hilarious!

Good morning. I am goine to have to go buy that book. I love to read. How is everyone today? I'm feeling great today.

Hope you dont mind if I pop on here im not in my second trimester yet but im a january mom,I hear a lot of talk about that belly laughs book and all were great,im thinking bout getting it also.It was nice last wednesday went to the docs and got to hear the heart beat on the dopplar,what a relief,just got over a horrible UTI,dont wanna do that again!!So how is everyone?

Were is everyone? I am doing ok. Had some spotting yesterday but none today. Scared me though. me and hubby and the kids are going to look for a new house closer to family tomarrow. I so cant wait. I really miss my family. I had to go on bed rest with my son at 26 weeks because of preterm labor so I really want to be closer to family in case that happens again. I am actually going to ask to be induced if I can because my placenta crystalizes early. At least with my othe two. That usually only happens with smokers but I dont smoke and neither does my hubby. I have a list of questions to ask on the 29th. Have a great day ladies.

I've heard a lot about crystalizing or hardening of the placenta lately. That can be a pretty bad deal, right? I am really starting to freak out about everything. I'm worrying about my health, baby's health, delivery. I know I have a long way to go, and worrying doesn't help anything, but I can't help it. Anybody else?

austynsmommy sorry to hear about your spotting, it can be scary even if you've had it with previous pregnancies. I too had some spotting last week (light brown) for a couple of days on & off for about a week, but my doctor rea__sured me that everything was fine & I must just be one of those women who get spotting, as I also had it with dd & ds (although ds was considered a threatened miscarriage due to bleeding with clots, very scary). Wow I've never heard of the placenta crystallising, & even though I'm healthy & don't smoke, agree with mcbee that it sound scary & something to worry about (great as if us pregnant women didn't stress enough, lol). I hope you have a much smoother pregnancy this time with NO complications, cause as a mother of 2 myself I really feel for you if you have to stay off your feet or bed rest, cause boy it won't be easy for you.

What is it with the spotting? I too have had some really light brown spotting for the past week. I use a progesterone supplement as well and it is mixed with the spotting. My doc told me at my last visit that I had some blood trapped behind the placenta and to expect some spotting and not to worry..so I am supposing that this is what is going on. I have my next appt next Monday with my regular OB, so I will get checked then. I am thinking about renting a doppler, I think it would bring me peace of mind. I had heard to check out belly beats to look at them, I have heard you can buy them on e-bay. I will check around. My morning/all day sickness was pretty good until this morning when I puked my guts out after brushing my teeth..I didn't even brush the back of my tongue which usually gags me. I have had occasional twinges/crampy feelings, and it feels like the uterus stretching, I had them at the very begining of the pg. I have also felt bubby feeling on the rt side of my tummy, where lil peanut is, I think it is early to feel this, but I swear it is the lil one tapping me from the inside! Hope you all are doing well. Sorry so long!

Today was such a great day! I got a job that I've really been wanting and will allow to me work full time and go to school full time! Then, my mom and I went to a Goodwill store that is nearby, and I found a changing table in perfect condition for only $30! I really wanted a changing table, but just couldn't see spending the money on one!
