Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

That's a lovely picture of you two Kelly <3

New fruit!! Yay avocado I believe? :happydance: congrats to everyone else who's a fruit change today lol

Welcome to the newbie (I'm sorry I only just read your name but I can't rem,ever it :dohh:) ill add you now xx
 
When did everyone start getting their nursery ready? My husband and I did a mural on the one wall yesterday and it made it seem much more real. I will post a pic soon :)
 
Thanks it was hard deciding what to do since we are staying team yellow :)
 
That mural is so awesome! Great work. We are in the process of moving so no thought about baby's room yet. We're renting, so we probably won't do something cool like that. I think in the beginning of june my sister it's taking me out to buy a crib tho, so I'm excited for that! It's so cool and simultaneously strange to get to buy baby things :)

I'm a peach today. So many new fruits :)
 
okay quick note here... I am probably really silly, but I noticed last night and especially today that the bottom half of my belly button has almost flattened out? It's weird to explain. I hope you all understand what I meant. Like the top half has the little creases or wrinkles in it that make it an innie belly button, but the lower half is smooth and crease less!! :) I suppose it is my uterus pushing upwards more? It is neat I think to look at

buying stuff makes it so real, me and my hubbys anniversary is tomorrow and its so weird finally putting stuff in the room we have had our house for 2 years and that room has stayed empty.
 
peanutmomma, I'm amazed how soon my belly button got 'deformed' this time around, lol! My belly button stayed normal looking until well into the second or maybe even the start of the third trimester with DD and I noticed last night that it's already exactly as you describe. I don't even have a bump yet, just some extra pudge, and it's all funky looking anyway!
 
Peanut, that's so exciting! I totally have bump envy with you. You look so cute and can already see so many changes. I forget I'm pregnant sometimes, that's how annoyingly nonexistant my "bump" is lol. I totally know what you mean about the belly button, and I bet that was a cool thing to see/realize! Uterus is movin' on up :)
My midwife said the top of the uterus should be half way btwn belly button and pubic bone around 16 wks. Does that match up with what you're seeing and feeling?

That's where mine is! I could feel it last night when I had my Braxton-Hicks. Right in between. :)

Mine is higher up. The doctor found it just below my belly button last Tuesday. And said at 20 weeks my uterus will be at the top of my belly button. Maybe my uterus is just trying to get some relief from baby pushing on it LOL

I have yet to get braxton hicks. When do they normally start? I feel like I will be really freaked out/scared when I have them. How often do they usually happen?

Mine started with my first pregnancy probably around 24 weeks when I started to really show. I didn't know what they were at first... my tummy would get hard and I felt all this pressure and I just thought it was the baby getting into an uncomfy spot for me. I told my mom what was going on and she explained what was happening. It happened for the first time last night with this pregnancy. I deferred to my mom again, and she said with each of her pregnancies (four of them), they came earlier each time.

It was kind of uncomfy last night... just like a lot pressure in my tummy, like my stomach was too full even up to my diaphragm. It didn't hurt at all, and it went away after just one. I hope they don't start getting regular. I don't particularly enjoy them... Don't freak out though! They don't hurt (OK, when you get to the end, like 37 weeks, they can start to hurt a *little* before labor starts). If they are bothersome, drink lots of water, but don't let your bladder get uncomfortable full. It can trigger them...
 
I think my uterus must be higher too maybe since it hadn't properly re shrunk yet?

Babymonkey, regarding the bh, I either didn't get them with my first pregnancy at all or they were so barely noticeable they didn't bother me. The only time I can remember my tummy being slightly uncomfortable from what might have been bh is when I would overdo it or walk more than 2-3 miles per day. And like I said, even then they weren't terrible so I wouldn't worry about them. I think they are much more commonly noticeable with additional pregnancies.
 
Morning/evening girls.

Had a really I rubbish day went shopping just as I finished my dad phoned me to say that my uncle had died from major heart attack I haven't be able to stop crying since I have just woke up sobbing! The worst bit is its in a really selfish way!

When I'm pregnant I get really clingy to my dad when I was pregnant with Gertie and Grayson I lived with him and I had to make sure he was home on time each night cause I had bad feeling something was going to happen I would phone him all the time.

Well now I don't live with him and we have had this terrible news and I'm scared my dad is next or hie will do something silly ( he doesn't cope well with stuff like this ) he's my own only real parent I don't have much to do with my mum and I couldnt imagine how I would cope!!

I know it's just silly thoughts and I have them all the time now I'm older and people that I have grown up with are passing it makes it a million times worse now I'm pregnant!

Sorry for such a depressing post but I don't have anyone else to talk to!
