Bec- Im sorry that you lost so late in the game But I agree that you should take it easy and try not to stress. Stress will not help the little one inside you. Everything will go great. Thinking of you!

Hi and welcome Bec
Hello all you other lovely ladies, how's everyone doing?
I'm ok, got a midwife appt and consultant appointment today so lots going on. I'm interested to see if they measure my bump. I'm getting a bit paranoid that I'm not growing!! My husband thinks I'm bonkers but I swear I've hardly changed for a few weeks. I'm really tall (6ft!!) and good muscle tone before so I'm hoping its just good genetics but I can't help worrying!!!
Other than finding things to stress about I seem to be ok- managed to get off the ms tablets and baby wiggling like crazy most of the day! Had some chocolate last night and he had a little disco in there- DH could feel all the jumping around, he was pretty amazed!
Speaking of DH he's going back to visit family in Norway tomorrow for 10 days- I'm a bit sad about it, wish I could go too but he has more holiday time than me, grrrr!
Anyway, I'll let u know how it all goes later xxx

 

[Young414]

Rachel, I am sure you are growing. Everything is gradual for me, so I barely notice. But if you look at pictures there's a slight change from week to tweek, but VERY slight! Fx'd they measure you!! Let us know! TEN DAYS! Seems like forever. My DH will be leaving in November for a week. I'll be rather large by that time...while I feel okay about it now, I am sure when November rolls around, I'll throw a pregnancy fit lol

AFM- Not too much has changed. I am blessed that the strecth marks have not shown yet, although my skin feels tight...it's only a matter of time. lol No leakage, No more swelling, just awful back pain. Been feeling her move a bit more. Now it's for about 2 hours at a time, then a LOOONG sleep session until bed time...when she wants to be awake again...silly babies! lol

 

[Lucy529]

Hey young and Rachel :wave:

I'm concerned I'm growing to fast I have another apt with the specialist on Thursday don't want to see that dr but I get an u/s so am going but def talking to my dr about her

Same as your babies Ivan wakes up early moves a bit then is quiet for most of the day then at night he goes on a kicking, flipping, wiggling session LOL but still won't let hubby feel him I only felt him once from outside but won't let me anymore

 

[JohnsonGirl]

Well my appointment went well. Baby boy doing fine. They measured my bump and I'm measuring a week ahead so definitely not too small!! Everything else is ok, blood pressure up a little bit so have to get checked again in 2 weeks but they're not worried.
Feel like I've spent my whole day off in the hospital though, back to work tomorrow

 

[Young414]

hey Lucy!! I'm sure you are going to measure fine! Let us know though!
I'll be thinking about you during your appointment coming up!


Rachel- Glad to hear that your appointment went well!! it's good that he's measuring big! Means he's growing! My blood pressure was high last time too, so don't stress!

 

[Lucy529]

Rachel glad your apt went well

My BP I actually low but am on meds bc of hb but they're talking about taking me off for a bit they haven't decided yet :/

Just realized I have an apt once every week for the next three weeks not sure how many will be u/s but they will check baby for sure

 

[Young414]

Ladies!! OMGosh! Pregnancy brain is in full swing! I woke up this morning, but on my bra, my belly band, my shirt...forgot my undershirt, now everyone can see my psychadelic yellow and pink bra.... I'm so embarassed. Now i'm wearing a jacket, that doesn't belong to me, that is 3 sizes too large, in the middle of summer, in Florida...ay yi yi..

On a happier note.. YAY EGGPLANT!

 

[Lucy529]

Yay!!!! Young your 25 weeks !!!!

Lol on the undershirt this is why I get my hubby to "check" my clothes for the day LOL just to be sure.

 

[JohnsonGirl]

Haha young that's hilarious!!
Yay for egg plant- me too tomorrow

 

[Megan252]

Happy eggplant ladies!!!

Young if it makes you feel better my hubby found the milk in the pantry yesterday. Pregnancy brain is taking over!!

I have a doctors appointment today, shouldn't be anything to report but I'm looking forward to hearing baby's heart beat

Hope everyone is having a good day!!

 

[Megan252]

This little guy seems to really like it up in my ribs, ouch! Hopefully he settles in a little lower, not too low though, haha.

 

[JohnsonGirl]

Glad your little man is ok Megan
Lucy- how did your appointment go?
No news from me really- 25 weeks today, time is flying. Third tri soon!!

 

[Lyndzo]

AH 3 days until V-Day!!

 

[markswife10]

Yay happy Eggplant to you ladies reaching 25 weeks!!!! I'll be there in 2 days!

AFM, Sad day... my wedding ring and engagement ring (they are soldered together) had to come off I cried a little. They were feeling tight and I had a very hard time getting them off but after quite a bit of twisting with soap they came off. They won't go back on now either. Dumb swelling! My fingers always swell to some extent in the summer but I can always work them off, but now with pregnancy it isn't the same. Guess they will stay off until they can fit again after baby is born (don't want to have to get them cut off later in pregnancy, not worth the risk), until then we bought a fake wedding set in a bigger size to hold me over. It is pretty but it isn't mine, but it will have to do. Le sigh.
