Apreslaube, I completely understand where your coming from. I get it too. Pain when I turn or lie in a certain way. Actually, like you, I wouldn't really call it pain, it's more like a tightening, but it is pretty uncomfortable. I find it difficult to find a position I am comfortable In at night. I am hoping as my belly starts to grow to accomodate baby, the tightening feeling will wear off a bit xx

Thanks for the comments on my scan!!
I used that pillow during my first pregnancy. The last tri it would have been impossible to sleep without it. The I used it to nurse lo and he used it as a prop when learning to sit, so even though it wasn't cheap, it was a great buy

I might have to try and find one. What are 5 hey called again? There must be someone round here selling one lol

I was going to try one of those pillows, but wasn't sure if I should just invest in some extra pillows instead. My husband says I hog the bed already with my 3 pillows.

Omg lol I have 5. 5!!

We paid 50 bucks for one of those pillows. Leach or something. I use it for part of the night but then I get too hot. Sleeping just isn't working for me. Maybe the pillow will help more when I'm bigger. I can't stand that I can't move around when I'm sleeping. My abdomen, maybe the uterus will hurt, kind of like a pulling feeling when I change position in bed. even just moving from side to back. So annoying, and worrying - seriously can I not move without hurting my baby?

No you're not going to hurt baby xx its annoying g but it's just good growing and stretching xx

I haven't posted in here for awhile but I've been reading and trying to keep up to date. I'm 11 weeks 4 days and tomorrow DH and I go to meet our midwife and get another ultrasound. I'm having a lot of anxiety about it tonight although I've been fine until today. I'm terrified of a MMC. I want to see a healthy baby so badly if lose it if something turns out to be wrong. I'm grateful my husband is coming because he's my support system emotionally. I've also jus reached the point where my nausea is starting to subside although y appetite is still poor. I think whats contributing the most are my vivid dreams though. None are about baby really but none are pleasant. It's like the las month I've had nothing but awkward uncomfortable or even scary dreams. It's makes it difficult because although I'm sleeping a lot it doesn't feel restful when I've woken up. Is anyone else having this? And I mean NO good or pleasant dreams for weeks now. It's terribly off putting

I'm the same hun it's a bit ch of pregnancy xx I'm glad your DH is supportive. I have everything crossed for you to see your perfect baby at next scan xx

Eek Tally that's a exciting not long to go!

I think I need to invest in a pillow but more for my poor hip. Carried DD round the farm yesterday and it just hurt so bad

 

[tallybee]

I know, so excited!

Ive just had to google Pack and Play lol... Didn't have a clue what that was, Over here in the UK there known as Travel cots and there so bloody bulky and heavy. You can pick them up so cheap for as little as £10 in charity shops, as there seem a great idea but for travelling they a nightmare.

I wonder why there soo loved in the states? Strange how we all favour one thing in different countries

for travelling i used a Koo-di Pop up Bassinet... It folded to the size of a iPad and literally weighed no more, and it was like a little pop up tent

 

[cdelmar]

I should be finding out gender today (results should be in by now, it has been 2 weeks)!!!

It's probably because we all buy unnecessarily huge SUVs to drive with just one baby, so we have plenty of space. Hahaha...

I threw that pillow on the floor today and went back to my old flat pillow between my legs/knees. Ugh. I'm getting the worse sleep every and it's wearing on me. IDK what to do. It's hard to get up for work.

 

[GingerPanda]

So exciting for everyone finding out gender! (And I'm super looking forward to the surprises from all our Team Yellow ladies in October!)


Sometimes I think my pregnancy is going by soooo slooow. But then I'm like, "What do you mean only 11 sleeps until I find out the gender?! I never thought I'd make it this far!"

Glad to hear the dreams are normal. My doctors office called and m midwife is sick so they rescheduled. Luckily they got me an appointment today at one. Thank goodness because even waiting a few extra hours is totally reving up my anxiety. Maybes is Gods way of telling me to be patient and positive? I just couldn't believe when they called me! Mean hubby has to go into work and then come back to go with me

We got a pack and play as a gift after lo was born, after having refused to buy it for a while. Turns out he slept there for three months, transitioning from the moses basket to his own crib. He didn't play in it cos he would scream like crazy when we left him there, and we took it on two trips, having to leave other things home for lack of trunk space, and when we got there the hotels had their own pack and play, so we only used our sheets. I did hear of other people, however, who used it for over a year for different things with great results...

 

[Rainstorm]

Oh, I forgot!! The first time I tried to move the pack and play from the bedroom to the living-room so he could play, I had to google how on earth you closed it. Even after watching a guy do it in slow motion I couldn't manage to fold it and open it again LOL

Im not sure if you live in the states but I know for those who register at Babies r Us (not sure about other baby stores) but they will teach you how to use their products).

[GingerPanda]

Hello, hormones! I started crying about NOTHING about an hour ago, and still haven't stopped! NOTHING IS WRONG! WHY AM I CRYING?

 

[apreslaube]

We are registered with baby's r us

 

[GingerPanda]

We will be registering at Babies R Us when the time comes.

Hubs was all, "Aww... I don't think I'm going to get a baby shower..." I'm like... "Ours are co-ed so you can be there, plus I don't think men traditionally get one anyway?"

It's not for me, it's for the baby!

So today was not the day and I had a feeling when I was typing my first post this morning...test had to be retaken today The location where samples are sent to didnt give too much information but my obgyn said it could have been because of how early i took it (you can take as early as 11 weeks and I took it at 11 weeks 1 day) the nurse who conducted the test today said it could because tubes of blood were not full (I dont remember if it was) so.....another 2 weeks we may or may not find out (I ahve a feeling this test wont come back with anything again and we will find out at my 18 week ultrasound!
On a funnier note, DH was more upset than I was since he was so nervous during the appointment. When we heard the heartbeat my obgyn goes," well according to the theory it could be a girl since you have a high heart beat" and my DH looks up in shock and he just looked so scared. The nurse reminds him it is just a myth but, to him all he hears is, "ITS A GIRL!" After the nurse leaves he goes, "what am I going to do with a girl, do you know what I am going to have to deal with a girl, and then the boys???
oh my lol i was laughing! And all the way to the lab (which is in the basement he has a million thoughts running through his mind...poor thing! He starts talking to himself and says, "everything is going to be pink, i dont even like pink" he asks me what I am laughing at and I said, "your reaction!" I just had to share with you girls
