Wow, I feel like im way to far away to be hanging out on the 3rd trimester board. Im not due until the very very end of august, so I still have like 3 weeks to go until im supposed to be here. I havent been on in a while, and was like "where did everyone go?" :)

Hey Elizhope! How are you feeling? Has baby started kicking the c___p outta you yet?

 

elizhope - May 6

I actually have been feeling 100% great. Like Im not even preggers. Which has been making it harder I think, bc now my cravings for wine and cigarettes have come back full force. But I just suck it up and remind myself I quit for my little girl. I still dont feel huge movement yet. Its more constant, but still very very subtle. My new worry is by b___bies have gotten a little smaller over last week and arent as heavy. But my doctor says not to worry bc im so far along now it shouldnt mean anything. but its still in my mind that somthing could go wrong! I need to seriously STOP worrying!! :)

Ya know, I think my b___bs shrunk just a bit too. Kinda made me worry, but she's moving pretty good. Plus I agree with your doc, I think a change in b___sts such as decreasing in size might only be something to worry about early on. Well, good for you for feeling great. My only complaint is back pain, lack of sleep, the inability to lift heavy things...okay my many complaints!! My body is wore out from bearing children though. I AM WITH YOU ON THE CIGS AND ALCOHOL!!!! I was watching a movie last night and I couldn't help but think 'Damn, that cigarette looks heavenly" I have told myself I WILL NOT start again after b___stfeeding. Especially since my 7 year old son used to give me such a hard time. I hope you continue your great feelings!

yea, quitting smoking was soooo hard. I smoked my last one on the way home from the store with a new pregnancy test in hand the day I found out. my hubby and I keep saying we arent gonna start back up again, (he quit too) but i think if the baby ever stays with my parents or something and we go to happy hour or something, I may bum one. mmmm..... nothing is better than sitting on the front porch while the sun is going down with a cigarette in one hand and a good gla__s of cabernet in the other...

What I loved was driving to work, drinking my cup of French Vanilla cappucino mixed with French Roast coffee and smoking that Camel Light. My doc thought I was going to miscarry early on due to a sac with nothing in it (turned out I just ovulated late), so I smoked for about a week or so after finding out until we saw the HB at 5w5d.

Ok you two.. you NEED to quit talking about how good a cigarette would be. I too quit when I found out cold turkeya dn hubby has just recently quit(a week ago) and I still crave a cold beer and a smoke ont he back deck. Uugh.... I too told myself that I will not start again after she is born, and maybe now that hubby doesn't I wont, but just one would be soo good some days!! Eliz - liek Ekay said, Iwouldn't worry about the b___b size decreasing, lol, be thankfull that they don't have a possessed mindof their own like mine seem to have and keep growing at the same rate as your belly! Goodness!! Glad to see you on here, and hear that all is going well and babe is giving you constant movements!:)

yea, no more ciggie talk bc i dont think ive ever wanted one as bad as right now. (i smoked camel lights too) so we have the date for my baby shower. (the big one) July 12. 6 weeks before Im due. That will be good right? We are going to register in 2 weeks. I have no idea what we need though. There are way to many options when it comes to strollers, car seats, etc... how do i know which one we need?And i hope you are right patti. i think the reason it scared me was bc my b___bies had gotten HUGE! at least 2 cup sizes bigger and they were soooo heavy. And to have them go down instead of at least stay the same was a red flag in my mind. I just saw your pics! You look fabulous with your belly and everything! I think my belly has pretty much stayed the same. Im gonna take a picture when i get home i think

Well, it's either I talk about cigarettes or food! J/K I wish my husband would quit smoking. He had to have a physical done before getting hired and they said he has the lungs of an 88 year old man. He has asthma too, so go figure. Eliz, I think 34 weeks is a good time to have a shower.

 

softbreeze200 - May 6

lol Ekay!! Yeah - food talk just makes me hungry! Really is no win situation isn't it!! Yikes - hubbys lungs sound not soo good!! I can only imagine hwo my poor lungs look on the inside! I started smoking in grade 9 - uhhh..lets see almost 16 years ago... OMG!!! I do not want to turn 30!! Ok, something new to freak out about..... :(

 

cnasmom - May 6

hi girls! ive been in school and i just went and drank the "glucola" as they call it, it was a new flavor, fruit punch! it was actually not bad! i was suprised, it would have been good if i didn't have to gulp it down in 5 minutes, lol. and i have had this done before but they took my blood before and after the hour??? usually they only take it AFTER the hour i drink it. idk. but anyhoo, how is everyone today? i think chloe has a nice spot picked out on my bladder cuz ive gone at least 10 times today already! and i gotta go go go now! lordy lordy, lol.

 

softbreeze200 - May 6

Lol Cnas- I think these little monkeys like the bladder. Must feel like a waterbed to them!! Since yesterday when we were talking about positions, I ahve been trying to figure out which way she is laying in there and I think she must be laying sidewyas with her back up and feet and arms hanging down, cause all my movements are down low. She loves to hit an dkick me in the bladder and in the b___t.

Afternoon ladies. I am back from my Doc apt. It went fine. I drank my orange c___p. It tasted kinda bad but whatever. And I got another u/s. The gave me a 3/d pic of Mason's face. Ima upload it on myspace. So tell me if you think it looks like me or Jeremy. I get another u/s in 2 weeks ( i know i am so lucky) but only bcuz my fluid was up. I guess she meant my amino fluid...idk and she said it could be Gestional D. But that since my fluid before had always been fine it could just be a one time thing but they want to check. I also had to have a RN shot I think its called since I am a- and jeremy is o+. Something about my protiens...idk I just bent over and took it...lol

 

softbreeze200 - May 6

lol momma!! I can't wait to see your 3d pic!! That RN shot is to help you rblood not create antibodies to the the blood since you are -. My girlfriend had that as well, and I think she had to have a couple more before babe arrived, so you may have to bend over a few more times!! I am soo glad that you are getting to see Mason so much!! I am dying to see her once more! :) How neat was the 3d??

 

mommaminchey - May 6

She did say i would have another but didn't mention multiplies.... ( don't like the sound of that...lol). But I was willing if it means the health of my baby. It was really great. I have them uploaded so go check it out... And I looked at your belly pix... Your the perfect preggo...lol... Your b___bs are seriously racing your belly though... they may end up winning...lol

 

softbreeze200 - May 6

LOL!! I know! they are totally out of control. I am really beggining to wonder what is going to become of them when I am done breatsfeeding and they just deflate??? Are they just going to literally deflate and just be hangy flaps of once big b___bs or will the y re-shrink to their normal size?? I can't wait to checkout your pics tonight when I get home. Our comp here at work has myspace blocked. Hopefully it will only be one more shot. But like you said - anything for the well being of the little ones.
