Congrats on team blue, Dragon!! :cloud9:

100 days to due date for me! :shock:
 
Congrats on team blue Dragon_Chaser!

My nesting has begun, ordered my glider chair and baby's dresser/changing table, and pretty much finished my registry. Still not sure if we're going to have a baby shower or not, but if not I think I'll make a Facebook group and give out the registry address so people can help out if they want to..hopefully that's not tacky to do lol. It's just we live 4-5 hours from everyone (from all directions) so it's a bit of a pain to have a shower.

In other news, we rent a house and I told the landlord yesterday that we're expecting, and just made sure we can renew our lease in October.. but he said they are wanting to sell the house so we probably will have to move by next summer.. yikes! We've been talking about buying some land and building a house for a couple years now but haven't made any progress towards it yet, guess now we have to get moving on it! Big project!! :wacko:
 
Congrats Dragon! :happydance: I love my boys:cloud9:

Almost single digits for me. My ticker is off of my FF due date but the midwives have me as a Nov. 5th due day, so a week earlier.
 
Congrats dragon on team blue!!!


I've reverted to bring a kid, making Rice Krispie cakes
 
Congrats of team blue.
Seems that my little miss has finally gone head down. Kicks are a lot higher up and hiccups are vibrating my pelvis. I know she might still turn back again but this is the first time I think she's gone head down.

Yay, dragon! Welcome to team blue! I had been wondering what happened to you! Are you doing ok?

I've been doing okay :thumbup:. <3 How have you been?

I've been great! Went to a family reunion, then on a different family trip to the beach. Planning a babymoon for next month as our last hurrah.

Starting to feel a little overwhelmed about not having anything for the baby yet. We're finally going next weekend to look at cribs and nursery decor and other furniture. I feel so behind. Haven't even started a registry yet.
 
Braxton hick seem to be more often now. have no idea what baby is up to. one moment I feel him near my belly button and the next I feel movements right near my cervix. my hubby said this afternoon my bump has slowed down in growth which means 1 of 2 things. either he's moved back and not so much at the front anymore or his growth has slowed down which would be a concern this early on. i'm hoping its just a case of him having moved back.
 
I hope he's just moved more back, Steph. :hugs:

TexMel, you've got plenty of time yet! :thumbup:

MrsBump, yay for head down! Hopefully she stays that way. I think mine is all over the place yet... I was getting kicks on my left side the other day. :rofl: So she must have been laying straight across.

AFM; third trimester starts in a week, which seems sorta extra crazy?!? :wacko: Down into the double digits until due date. My GTT is in 10 days, and I'm hoping for an iron test then too, might explain my exhaustion!?

I'm uncomfy, just plain and simple. I'm carrying this one higher up (though I don't think she's ridiculously high, just higher up than Parker ever was) and so at times my lungs feel mushed, even though I can feel that the top of my uterus is a ways below my ribs yet. :haha: I can't bend over, getting into bed is harder and harder, and I'm going to have to buy new underwear soon because everything keeps rolling down :rofl:
 
thank you,

hope you get some answers to your exhaustion.

I got a letter from my doctor yesterday saying he wants to do an iron test as he refered me to get a trace of my heart done but they wont do it on a pregnant person who might be anaemic. so as well as my doctor wanting a blood test done my midwife wants to do one when I see her. so have to have 2 lots done as the results go different places.
 
My little guy is all over the place too! I often feel kicks on my left side. I did with DS too. And over the weekend I felt him hitting my cervix a lot. That is so uncomfortable!:growlmad: Still getting Braxton Hicks quite frequently. And I'm definitely bigger than I was with DS maybe just because this is my second or maybe this baby really is bigger.:shrug: I was measuring two weeks ahead at my last appointment. I go for another appointment today. I'm anxious to see what I"m measuring but not to see the weight on the scale :wacko:

Hope you all had a good weekend! :hugs:
 
Mimzy-I get kicked in my cervix too, I never had this with my son, so this is new and it's very painful!! What do you do for it?
 
I randomly woke up super early this morning, and she was contentedly kicking away at my belly button. :cloud9: I lay awake and just felt her kick for like 10 minutes. Then she stopped and I went back to sleep. :cloud9: They weren't huge or strong kicks or anything, I think I woke up because DH must've been leaving for work. :haha:

I had to get a cavity filled in my tooth today, and she was kicking quite a lot then too! I could feel my bump moving. I hope she's not developing an early distaste for the dentist. :rofl:

I bought my FIRST outfit for her today. Just a pink camouflage sleep suit. :haha: (We are total rednecks, so its cute :winkwink:) I was feeling guilty because I feel like we aren't pouring out the money to prep for this baby, but I'm all better now. Amazing what a $5 purchase can do. :rofl:
 
Amcolechii I just wait for it to pass. Since its mostly when I'm up walking or riding in the car when it happens. But I'm sure doing a few yoga poses might help to get the baby to change positions. You could try a downward dog, child's pose, and cat/cow.

Midwife appointment went great. HB strong, baby is still measuring ahead, and I only gained 2 lbs this time.. which I'm very happy with.
 
I am getting a lot of cervix beating up which I am sure means madam is breech! It just felt like she tried to poke a food out ouch!!!

Only 10 more weeks at work eek
 
I get a lot of pokes in the cervix too.
Baby has been pretty quite today, he's not really moved much, as he has been moving i'm going to see how tomorrow goes and then talk to my midwife Wednesday when I see her.
my bump is looking bigger which is good as we started worrying it wasn't growing, although he's moved to the front again.
 
Littlesteph - hope your midwife appointment goes well I think about 23 weeks my little miss was quite too :shrug:

Hope everyone is going ok?

AFM - Little miss Issy was going mad for the last 24 hours but she seems to have calmed back down now to her usual movement but my bump does feel bigger so I wonder if she had a growth spurt :wacko: I am feeling my lungs are starting to feel the squeeze now especially when I am sitting :dohh:
I had a bad day yesterday of feeling VERY tired & uncomfortable but I feel better today *phew* I was almost crying yesterday due to it!

HOW am I almost 3rd tri :wacko: seems to be going so quickly but also dragging at the same time I cannot wait for her to arrive but I still have so much to sort out :wacko:

Question - lately my nose just seems to be a constant nose bleed it is driving my nuts always feeling bunged up & tmi crusty but it is dry blood etc - it was never this bad before :wacko: anyone else getting this?
 
Am quite upset at the moment. I just had a call from the health visitor who informs me I'm considered a high risk mum and they need to access me to see if I need extra help with my baby. I'm confused as to why. My son is 2 and I've followed all their rules, bar them telling me to use disposable nappies and not baby wear. I declared I suffered from depression at 18 on my form for completeness but I'm 34 now. I said they could come because I'm sure that'll let them cross me off their list but I'm still offended. I never had a problem raising my very happy little boy so why would I fall apart this time?
 
Oh Mrs Bump I would be annoyed & upset by this also - why would they consider you high risk!! that is just madness :hugs:

I am still awaiting to hear from my health visitor team :wacko:
