2016 May Miracles

[busytulip]

Hi Tesh...fancy meeting you here I am so excited we have quite a few ladies staying team yellow!

Alea we were kind of lucky in that we picked out mostly gender neutral things. I can't see where you are from, do you have consignment shops nearby to shop for baby number 2?

 

[AdriansMama]

drjo that is great news

Welcome Adriansmama :wave: I did the same with my last. She was due Oct. 30th I always felt really behind in the Oct. group so I joined the Nov. one, good thing too since she decided to hold out until Nov. 4th. Will you stay team ?

Flossie I feel the exact same way.

We aren't doing anything to celebrate each week. I need to start taking bump pics.

Anyone else having aversions? Deli meats are not my friend Making lunches has been a test.

This baby will end up being an april baby due to repeat c sections but especially in these early days it's a little odd being 7 weeks when some ladies are gearing up for second tri
I'm definitely not patient enough to stay team yellow 😝 I would find out today if I could ! I don't have a gender preference this time though. If it's a girl then that's great because it's our last baby and we have 2 boys but if it's another boy then that's great too because I already have all the boy stuff I could ever need!

 

[busytulip]

Oooh I see that you are a baby wearer AdriansMama! Yay!

Any other mamas here that plan on wearing their LO's?

 

[pinkpassion]

O gosh... it's not in my signature (probably should add it) but I am an AVID ebf,baby wearing, cloth diapering, cosleeping (up to 9 months) , natural crunchy mama!!!! Hahahaha I catch so much crap from people about my "crunchiness"

 

[pinkpassion]

I have a moby, boba, rainbow, itybity , meitai... I may be forgetting some, I've sold and bought so many times when dd was little looking for stuff that worked the best for us (I'm tiny and so is she)

 

[pinkpassion]

But I LOVE my moby probably the best for under 5 months, then I loved my meitai the best after that, so soft and versatile!!!!!!

 

[busytulip]

Love it Pink!
I have a boba, mei tai, and a few wraps. I'm looking forward to expanding on my stash.

 

[Kitteh_Kat]

I just have a Tula Toddler and a custom Star Wars ring sling... still debating whether I'll be getting a Tula Standard or a Lenny Lamb (I want a cat print carrier so bad!). I hate strollers so babywearing is how I survive when hubby isn't around to pull carry duty.

Anyone else being attacked by acne? I feel like a teenager again! I could do without this pregnancy side effect.

 

[pinkpassion]

YES !!!!!! I have on on the center of my cheek... really, why there?! Haha

 

[Flossie_Aus]

I LOVE the idea of baby wearing, but I am SO CLUMSY I'm not sure I could trust myself

I ate pizza last night, and all (early hours) morning I tossed and turned feeling greasy and queasy and yuck and thinking about the stupid pizza, and this morning I'm experiencing my first real morning sickness (I think). I haven't chucked (yet), and it's not firing out all ends, so I'm guessing (hoping) its not food poisoning and perhaps baby just doesn't like pizza

 

[Kitteh_Kat]

Same here! Along with one on my chin and several on my neck... I know I get a little sweaty when I exercise, but this is just ridiculous!

Isn't the old wives tale supposed to be a girl stealing mom's beauty?

 

[Kitteh_Kat]

Flossie - still might be worth a try, especially if you can find someone that doesn't mind lending you something for a test run. I felt the same way, but was sold with the Tula. She's sturdy in it, it's not as complicated as a wrap (not knocking them, I just have a hard time with them! ), and we've never had an accident.

Hope you feel better, and that it was just a one off! Might be all the grease that set you off.

 

[busytulip]

I agree it's probably the grease that upset your tummy. I hope you feel better Flossie!

Yes, I've heard that girls steal your beauty.

You have a StarWars sling Kitteh?? I think I'm in nerd love with you now.

Just want to say good luck to LouOscar. Praying for great news tomorrow!

 

[ja14]

Do any of you have a feeling about what your having yet? Right now, I feel like mine is a boy!

 

[pinkpassion]

I keep telling dh it's one of each but he wants a boy so that would be nice for him!!! I just want a healthy baby I don't care the gender!! Which is why I said we'd be team yellow!!!

 

[ja14]

I don't really have a preference, I want both eventually, so I go back and forth on which I think would be "better" first. Of course either will be wonderful!!

 

[Flossie_Aus]

Well I'm now lying on a bed in the doctors office since my feeling "off" progressed into facial tingling and dizziness and although that probably sounds normal (don't know never been pregnant before) I'm high risk, so OB wanted a check up. Eeeeek. Will let you know how I go

UPDATE: Nothing unusual in my work up. Sentenced to rest. Thank God.

 

[Esperanza2015]

Hi Esperanza! Welcome
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Do you have an idea of when your EDD is?

Butterfly some ladies have had success with taking unisom and vit. B6. Mentioning it to your provider wouldn't hurt. I had HG with my last 3 pregnancies, you don't want to let it get bad.

Pink I hope your back pain isn't here to stay.

Thank you busytulip

My EDD is May 12th/2016. Im going for a private scan on Sep 22 and then my OB will see me when am 8 weeks at October 2.
Hoping for the best!

 

[Mumstar]

Hi all sorry I've not been on recently I have a terrible cold and virus type thing and a hacking cough. My immune system has taken a dive. I have my ultrasound today to check if this is viable pregnancy since we only saw a sac last week. Just keeping my fingers crossed.

My boons have already gone up a size and are spreading sideways lol. I feel like a cow right now. Have been craving avocados so much right now and have been having about half an avo every other day. I'm trying to limit myself. No ms yet.

Haven't been feeling very hungry and actually have to stop half way through a meal because I get so full.

I was an avid wrap user with the first and plan on doing the same this time. I loved going for walks with him in his wrap he always liked to sleep and gave me some exercise. More

Will update later and hope it goes well. And congrats on everyone's appointments. I hope to see a little heart beat.

Xx

Flossie, glad all is well!!!!!!

Good luck mumstar!!!! I'm sure all will be fine!!!!
