Aley I have my next scan at the exact same time and date as you!

I've been thirsty too! Was wondering if it was related!

I had to buy some warm weather mat clothes today! Was boiling in my first few mat things, needed some capris desperately! Also got a few tank top and tshirts.

 

[aley28]

Haha, crazycatlady! That's awesome! I'm happy its a morning appointment, because I won't have to wait all day that day to see the baby! Will also FINALLY announce on Facebook after we know the gender!

Warm weather! Jealous. We literally had snow on the ground this morning. Crazy weather. Looking forward to some warmer weather though -- gonna have to hunt down some maternity tank tops. I'm also desperate for a bra that will just magically keep growing with the girls, as every time I look in the mirror, i've gone up another cup size.

Glad your scan went well Aley!

I managed to fit into a pair of my non mat jeans this morning! I tried it just for "fun" and I can't do the button up comfortably but they went on and they're staying up with a hairbobble through the loops I'm taking that as a win for the day

5 days til my gender scan!

Did you find out with your first or was that a surprise too? Probs to you for going along with DH I couldn't do it!

 

[crazycatlady5]

My Dh says the opposite - says baby is a new member of our family and not a Christmas present, doesn't need to be a surprise lol. Funny how guys can have such strong opinions on finding out or not!

Aley where do you live that is still snowing?? We didn't get a single snow day here this year!

I cant remember who posted what baby brain to the extreme!! About being thirsty thought it was just me. Iv never really been able to sleep with my mouth closed but just slightly breathing with my mouth open nd my mouth is sandpaper dry i woke up this morning with cracked lip and sore mouth

where on earth is still snowing? I hate snow lol

we wasnt going to find out the sex but i want a girl so bad that if its a boy i will be so disapointed (your the only people im telling that to ) and will feel like a terrible person for feeling that so want to be able to get used to it. My oh was just going along with wat i wanted lmao

We finally got to hear the heart beat a couple days ago my husband teared up, it was so cute lol.. Too many people in my family (including me) have had father issues and grew up without a stable father figure, so seeing how involved my husband wants to be and how much he already loves our baby makes me so emotional sometimes.. We were both holding back tears while listening to it lol.

I am kind of worried now though - my doctor said there was protein in my urine, for this appointment and also at my first appt at 8 weeks.. so I'm doing the 24 hour test now.. I'm trying to stay positive about it to not stress myself out over something I don't even know is happening, but being pregnant with my first makes me curious and worried about everything.. I'm crossing my fingers I just wasn't drinking as much water as I should have been and have been downing tons of water and nothing else since the appointment..

Has anyone else had to do the 24 hour urine test, either with this pregnancy or past ones..?

 

[aley28]

Haha!! I live in Wyoming -- midwest USA. I've seen snow here as late as early June although usually it stops snowing around the first half of April! Really hoping that that was the last bit of snow we see until October though!

catmummyof3, I am the same -- I gotta know the gender for possible disappointment reasons. I've been trying to mentally prepare myself for weeks now in case its a boy!

AFM;
I've been off my sickness meds since Monday, and I've not really thrown up since then - though done some serious dry heaving a couple of times. I'm nauseous a LOT, but I can handle nausea when it comes with the perk of not having to choke down that damn pill. And phenergan causes drowsiness... so its nice to finally be able to stay awake all day long [most days].

My SPD is getting worse, or maybe I'm just overdoing it. I can't wait for school to be out for the summer so that I can do smaller bursts of activity at a time. Sleeping/getting comfortable in bed is nearly impossible right now because of SPD pain.

 

[aley28]

I hope everything comes back OK with the urine test, amberwxo! And yay for hearing the heartbeat for the firs time -- most beautiful noise ever, isn't it?

 

[Mrs_Bump]

Ambernwxo I haven't had the test personally but a friend of mine did. I hope it goes well for you.
Been thoroughly messed around by hospital here. So tired of the visits already. I know it's all to minimise the risk but it's exhausting.

 

[Mimzy3]

I also wanted to find out the gender in order to prepare not only psychically with the room, clothes and such but also mentally! I think thats great though for the people that can wait to find out.

I live in IL so I understand the cold and snow We had snow just last month too. And it was only a high of 52 the other day. The only reason I stay in the Midwest is because of my family. I really hate that we only get 2 months of summer!

It anyone else battling constipation? Ugh I keep getting backed up I was like this with DS too!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Mimzy-I live in Ohio, so I understand about the weather! We are only here for family and friends too! But it has been super nice this Spring/Summer besides the other day was like only 65! I have been constipated too!! Probably because I am having a hard time eating cooked vegetables. I do eat raw ones tho, that's about all I can stomach!!

 

[Yammas]

Is 13 weeks second tri I read somewhere it's 14? I finally have a due date (was unsure of lmp) it's currently set at November 26th

 

[aley28]

I consider 13 weeks second tri.

 

[littlesteph]

same weeks is second tri.

random heartburn has started. don't remember getting it this early with the boys. midwife on Wednesday, hoping she will refer me for a growth scan, should be getting them anyway as she has put baby as high risk.

 

[catmummyof4]
