countryblonde, sometimes I wish I lived in Canada, but I wouldn't be able to convince the father of my two girls to move with me (this baby I'm growing now has a different father, I'm with someone else).

RandaPanda, I'm sorry if the way I came off made you feel like you should do what I do. I didnt mean to sound like that. I was just explaining why I do the opposite.

Jamers89, Welcome to the group! I've added you to the list! Congratulations by the way .

 

[RandaPanda]

Not at all, Kiwiberry!! I completely see where you're coming from too. With my first son, we were living overseas until 20 weeks, so it was easier to keep it a secret until we got home. We told my parents at 5.5 weeks with baby #2 because they came for dinner and I was so sick I couldn't eat We'll just see how long I can keep things under wraps with this one!

Oh my gosh you girls have been so active on here today i love it!! But ive been napping most of the day cuz i work again tonight so im trying to keep up
Jamers according to my last period i should be the 21st too!!! Kind of hoping its later in the month for timing wise but we'll see.
I work from 6pm to 6am tonight and then driving tomorrow morning to see hubs!! Its been a month this time and we are so excited!
So with both of my other pregnancies i gained 50 pounds. And it was face legs butt everywhere. Im tall and pretty thin not pregnant. Im hoping to not gain so much. I wish i could be an all belly kind of woman. How about you guys?

 

[Kiwiberry]

I used to be overweight, but after losing it all this past year (don't ask I have no idea how I did it) I'm paranoid about it too. I heavily monitor how much and what I eat. I am in the US and wear 00 pants / extra small shirts. I'm hoping to be all belly this time too. I do have hideous extra skin though that can't be removed without surgery sadly, but it's not noticeable really unless I pull on it. I'm short in height, 5 feet 2 inches tall.

Before being pregnant this time I barely ever craved anything like junk food and everything tasted too sweet for me. Now that I'm pregnant though it's become the opposite .

These were taken a week ago. Don't mind my horrible hair, I literally jumped out of bed and went out for breakfast lol. Please don't judge . These are not the most glamorous pictures of me. Living out of a hotel right now and it's rough . I miss my highlights so much!! Bonus picture, my youngest ready to eat lol. it might be hard to tell in the pictures for people who aren't me but I normally have a flat stomach so you can see my little baby bloat!! I also promise I'm not 15 years old, I'm actually 30 lol.

You are tiny!! You'll totally be all belly!
Im 5 8 and was 160. Idk what i am now. I started the last two at 150 and 144 and both got over 200!

You tall ladies have It so much easier . I gain anything and you can instantly notice .

I edited my post too, trust me I'm not 15 years old I'm actually 30 and I wanted to make sure that you knew that lmao.

 

[RandaPanda]

Kiwi, you're tiny! And you do look young!! I'm jealous - I'm nearly 37 and I think my kids have aged me a decade just since my second was born
1.5 years ago

I'm 5'8 and gained 43 lbs with my oldest, and 33 with my youngest (was holding onto 10 anyway when I got pregnant again, so ended up at the same end weight).

Here I am at 40 weeks with #1 and 33 weeks with #2. I had big babies and definitely didn't bounce back well after #2, so am a bit nervous about how I'll look and feel after #3. But it's worth it

 

[RandaPanda]

crusherwife, I can't imagine working 12 hour nights and caring for the kids - that's impressive! Enjoy your visit with your husband!!

 

[crusherwife44]

Hahaha. Thanks.. Its been a juggle. But next year i get to leave the military and stay home full time!!!!
Okay ladies. I did it. Was gonna wait until 12 weeks butttttttt ive got an appointment at 7 weeks june 5th

 

[Emsabub]

Thank you everyone who wished well! It’s currently 3:47am and I’m desperate for a drink now my stomach feels much better!!

I’ll be catching up with posts at a more decent time .. 🤣 7 weeks today!

 

[Kiwiberry]

RandaPanda, you look lovely!! Far better than my bed head pictures lol. I am hoping to make it full term this time, both my girls are preemies.

crusherwife44, yay for an appointment, so excited for you!!

Emsabub, so glad you're feeling better and happy 7 weeks!!!!

AFM, I've been feeling sick all day. Is it normal to feel feverish with no temp and nausea at the same time??

 

[dizzy65]

Welcome to all the new people and congrats

 

[going_crazy]

Welcome to all the newbies!!

Not much to report here.... I also am not liking 1st tri very much with all the worry and anxiety. I know it'll probably carry on throughout pregnancy BUT I think there's something reassuring when you reach 12 weeks+?

Still no nausea here, however my boobs are extremely sore and sensitive which I'm assuming is a good sign?? I've had a small amount more spotting but can't do anything until scan next Wednesday.... it can't come soon enough!

Much respect for those working 12hr shifts - I'm struggling keeping my eyes open for 6hrs lol

 

[Lexi's Mummy]

Just catching up lol! Welcome all newbies!

RandaPanda yep it's Friday! 1.20pm uk time! This week is honestly going so slow. DH is back tomorrow and then 1 sleep haha!! We are also going away a week on Monday for 4 nights with all immediate family and kids. 17 of us lol! Be nice to hopefully have the scan as reassurance before I go! Xx

 

[RandaPanda]

That sounds like it will be a fun time, Lexi's Mummy! We just got back from our cottage yesterday and I went for one more blood test. Lol, my Dr didn't order it, but he had issued me a serial testing card for the lab, and when I was nervous about how my numbers would be at my last draw, the very kind nurse told me to just come back in again when I wanted, despite my Dr not requesting another test! My doubling has slowed down a bit (but still fine), but I went from 3476 at 19dpo to 38,283 at 27dpo My first ultrasound isn't until June 7th, which can't come soon enough!
