3rd & 2nd Tri MIDSUMMER DREAMERS - Mid July-Mid August Pregnancies! Come join! :D

[AndreaBat]

I am glad everyone is doing well! that's exciting about your scan Yasmin! Oh and what fun shopping must of been TaNasha! We aren't going to shop until After March 9th when we have our confirmation anatomy scan with the doctor, but Im going to a huge baby sale that weekend with SIL

We had a wonderful weekend tellig everyone that we will be having a son! Knowing what the baby is has made it even more real ESP for DH, and seeing the little baby that is living inside me was so incredible! We have talked about decoration & clothes & all of the things we will be able to share and do with him... And we've been trying to set our name in stone... Leaning right now toward Silas Jeremiah ... A strong Biblical names & DH's name is Jeremy so it's the long form of his name!

When we watching him on the u/s he was breech & his little feet were crossed & pointing down and he was using them to push against my bladder and move himself up and down ... I saw him do it then felt a familiar pain outside my bladder that I had been complaining about for a week or two & realized it was just the little one kickin me there! Now I smile everytime I feel it & poke him so he will move haha I feel him
move so much more often now, like a few times a day, something I would dismiss if I didn't know he was right there & bc it doesn't feel much like gas or flutters for me, more like a fish swimming or doing a flip lol

Gosh it made me so excited I can't wait to meet him!

On a sad note my parents yorkie got hit by a 4 wheeler atv ... He is in critical condition and they are gonna wait 24 more hours to see how he improves .. We do know he will lose one eye but we are really praying he pulls through & lives. He is my Dads & my dad was sobbing and crying like I've never heard .. Heartbreaking for sure! Just hoping he stays stable & shows improvement today!

Krystal sorry about your Dads dog .. shame how sad, hope he pulls through ..

I just put a post in 2nd trim reagrding this pain (not really painful and it comes and goes) two fingers down from my belly button and two fingers across .. it feels weird .. ive been wondering if it is babs because my doc showed me where my uterus is and on the scan it seems where little man is kicking away at me like he's on a rugby field is where the 'pain' is .. but i thought at 15 weeks we cant feel anything .. can we / do we ????

i have also been having a pain right about where you are saying but only when i sneeze and funnily when i put my hand in the spot to prepare myself the pain moved to the other side when i sneezed it was rather weird. I do think i can feel movement i have been for about a week now. mostly when i am laying on my side and after a bath. its not kicking but its definitely movement.

 

[yasmin13]

Is anyone making anything for their little one?

I'm thinking about trying my hand at a quilt but I dont know where to start...

I'm also going to knit a scarf. I used to knit before but I need to brush up on casting again.

 

[Tasha]

Krystal I am still thinking about your parents dog.

Andrea movement can be felt earlier than most of the books say, it is just an average of when women start feeling, with my baby's movements always felt like butterflies fluttering or trapped gas, iykwim?

yasmin I am not but I am rubbish at that sort of stuff. Make a blanket, do you mean knit, sew or crochet (sp)?

I booked a gender scan for Sunday

 

[yasmin13]

I want to sew a quilt... like a patchwork one. I will start collecting cotton fabric and then might try and you tube some tutorials. I don't normally sew but I really want to be able to make something for my baby

 

[yasmin13]

Yay on the gender scan! I just need to get through tomorrow and Thursday morning now... how exciting!

 

[Tasha]

That sounds lovely. You will have to show regular pictures of its progression.

 

[Tasha]

Yay on the gender scan! I just need to get through tomorrow and Thursday morning now... how exciting!

Not long at all, now. Very excited for you.

Never had a private scan before, but this will be my last baby (if everything goes okay) so thought I would.

 

[yasmin13]

I'm not confident about it at all The quilt that is... it sounds complicated but I will try and I will definitely post pics! If we get to see a potty shot it will help me pic colours for the quilt too.

Who did you book your scan with?

 

[Tasha]

It will be fab, plus if you take your time, it will give you something to concentrate on in the last few weeks, when time seems to stand still.

Do you have any feelings on gender?

I booked with Babybond, they are only two miles from my house so really easy to get to.

 

[yasmin13]

How much is it with babybond? Is it a normal scan or 3D?

I want one boy and one girl so I dont mind which... of course if I could choose I would want a boy first simply because when I was growing up I always wanted a big brother

Do you have any preferences?

 

[DaretoDream]

That is fab, you will love it. Lots of people make friends with other Mum's and dad's to be, which is great cos your all in a similar situation, plus friendships can continue when you have your LO's so you can have coffee mornings with them, feeling less alone is worth $50 even without the classes.

--- I do hope we could make friends with some of the people in the class! I have no friends that are pg right now- i'm going to be the only one with a baby! And, the one girl i do know that has 2 boys- is a drunkard and leaves her babies alone in her house- and we long for a couple that has kids that is responsible! And cares about their babies above all else! Hoping we can make some bonds. And i do hope we love it as you say!!! i'm excited. They put me in in May, so that when it's all done 6 weeks later, it'll be like a month before we are due.




@krystal im' SO sorry about your parents yorkie. That's so sad. I'm a vet tech, and the animals are so incredibly special- each of them different from the next, and i am always sad to see one go. My heart goes out to you all.

 

[Tasha]

yasmin it is quite expensive at £79, but you pay a £30 deposit and then the rest on the day, that doesnt sound as bad. It is normal but you do get some time 3d too, you get photos in both normal and 3d.

A big brother to protect the little sister, is a sweet idea

I am not bothered, I have a boy, then a girl, a girl who was born sleeping, and another girl, so my little boy is desperate for a brother, he keeps saying he has three sisters already so is out numbered

Daretodream, firstly that is awful about your friend I have absolutely no doubt you will love it and make friends. May sounds like a great time.

 

[yasmin13]

I thought they were more expensive... I wanted one but hubby said I should just wait for the NHS one and use the money on baby stuff.

Aww... your lil boy needs a friend. My niece saw my 12 week scan pic and said she thinks it's a boy because it was bald I thought that was cute.

 

[yasmin13]

I am so bored... I just dont have the energy to do any work. And everytime I get up from my chair I feel this heavy pressure in my tummy. Is that normal?

 

[els1989]

Hey I am Ellie, I am 21, pregnant with my 1st, my OH is 21 too. Came off the pill in September and was pregnant 2 weeks later! Due 13th July and should hopefully find out pink or blue 2 weeks tomorrow! x

 

[Tasha]

Your husband is probably right, but I think would rather have the extra scan than more clothes.

Awww, that is soooo sweet. How old is your niece?

Yes, it is normal.

 

[Tasha]

Hey Ellie, congratulations. And how fab is that getting pregnant so quickly, especially after coming off the pill, I bet you expected it to take a while because of your hormones sorting out?

 

[els1989]

Tasha yes, even the doctors were shocked when I told them that it took literally 2 weeks so whenever they ask me if it was planned I have to say but not that quickly!

 

[yasmin13]

I wanted the scan too… He’s just too sensible!

Hi Ellie – that was quick We got our BFP on our 3rd cycle.
