Awww Congrats Miss K on the blue bump :)

Hello, look at me, I think I've made 2 posts in a week :happydance:

Hope everyone is doing well?

We had our 20 week scan yesterday & everything looks great :) Both twins are lying horizontally across my belly, but at the moment are top & tailing, so have both have feet next to their heads! My favourite part of the scan was seeing their lips & noses- it was so cute! Also twin 1 had a bigger head & longer legs than twin 2, so I think he takes after me- I have a big head, hats never fit me!

Miss-K congrats on the blue bump
Zowiey- your twins will be so cute if they look like you :p

Holy bananas if the doctors only let me go til 39 weeks max due to the Diabetes then I have just under 17.5 weeks left til she is here!!!
 
Glad all the 20 week scans are going well for you all girls. I know a few of you found out the gender at earlier private scans, but it's so nice to have the anomaly scan bit too so you can have it all checked out and make sure baby is healthy.

Today has honestly been one of the best days I've ever experienced. Now I know the sex, it makes the whole pregnancy seem so much more real than before as I know it's definitely a person and not just an 'it'. Does that sound daft lol?

Jammers glad contractions have stopped but poor you for feeling all itchy. That is so horrible isn't it. Always seems to happen to me when I have to work and it's so hard to have a covert scratch lol.
 
miss_kseniya, yes! The itching is driving me batty. OB office called in some yeast infection medicine. They think the antibiotic caused it--duh!! I still couldn't get in to see someone. I've got this odd sensation of baby falling out or something falling out of my vagina if I'm on my feet for a while. I went shopping today to grab a few items we needed and by the time I walked to the vehicle I was waddling like a duck. I remember having that problem when I was about 30 weeks with DS2. NOT at 18 weeks. Hoping I can hold out till Tuesday's appointment. I worry about my water breaking or cervix dilating. Doesn't help I've got some mild cramping along with it. :/ SIGH!!
 
I forgot to tell you all while in hospital ihad a gall bladder scan and the tech took a sneeky look at baby lol but beter than that I can now see her kicks oon the outside yeh and feel them with my handhelds
 
My scan went great and I added another to the poll for team :blue:!! :happydance::happydance::happydance:
 
congrats elt! Welcome to team :blue: !

Looking forward to my scan tomorrow just to have another peek at Baby Aidan! :)


I've also finally started feeling him more regularly in the past day or two. It's still pretty sporadic but it's getting better! :happydance:
 
Jammers antibiotics quite often cause yeast infections...its really annoying. Hope you get it all sorted out hun, must be driving you mad.

Glad the scan was all good Elt and another litle boy :) We have quite an even mix at the mo.

Good luck for tomorrow Garden. Hope your little man is nice and wriggly so they can get all the measurements done for you. WIll be lovely to be able to see him again :)
 
hope everyone has a wonderful Friday! I was up early and had a headache. Thought I should eat something and that was a bad idea just spent the last 15 minutes vomiting!! YUCK!! I think milk and I no longer like each other, well not in pregnancy at least!! I feel better now though. I plan to get off my booty and get some slings/ wraps started for I have people to send them too :)

Good luck Garden.
 
YAY!!! Ladies, I FINALLY have answers!!!! After a week of madness, I FINALLY was able to convince the OB to see me. I'd had to call them yesterday because the pharmacy said my yeast medication hadn't been called in. And whilst talking to the nurse about it, I told her I was still having pressure feeling in my vagina--like my uterus was falling out. I'd told her about it a day or two before, and she'd waved it off. This time though, they didn't! I got in as the last patient of the day yesterday, got a thorough exam (also was told I have NO yeast and NO signs of bacterial infection at all!! YAY!) and was told that baby is fine. Nothing's falling out, cervix is closed and in great shape. Oh my goodness, talk about relief. Doctor explained that with subsequent pregnancies, the uterus is already stretched, the bladder has had pressure put on it and may be a bit lower than previous pregnancies. All of that added together CAN make a person feel more pressure, but it's normal! Shew!! So glad it's ok. I'd have worried myself all weekend and all day Monday. But now I can sit back and just anxiously await Tuesday's scan!!

Sorry you've been sick this morning. Hoping that's all for you today! Good luck on those slings and wraps!
 
Jammers--YAY! I am so glad you have answers, relief, and peace-of-mind! :thumbup: Try to just take it easy, hopefully the pressure and "falling out" feeling isn't too uncomfortable or ideally, it subsides!

Peanut--:( boo for being sick....but yay for feeling better! Gotta love how all of a sudden we get upset stomachs or heartburn from foods that we could easily enjoy before. I've already had an experience or two, myself! Have fun with your crafts. I wish I could hang out with you today and make things :)

Garden--ahhh I'm so excited for your scan today! I'm not sure what time it is at for you, but make sure you give us all of the beautiful details!

Congrats on the new gender reveals we've had this week. Seems like the teams are tied up as of now...although Zoe seems to imply that one of hers is team blue... ;) what about the other? We'll just say girl to keep things even :p

AFM--Some of you know already, but last night I had a few weird but awesome experiences! I was lying in bed, just watching Netflix on my phone for a few minutes before turning in. I was just poking and touching my belly. Well, all of a sudden my uterus got really hard. I didn't keep track for how long, but it probably wasn't more than 30 seconds (? I think?). It didn't hurt or anything, I honestly didn't even feel it happen beyond the actual physical touch of my hand, that recognized it had gone hard. A lot of people are saying it was a Braxton Hicks, which it seems to match up with what that sounds like! I guess I have just heard of women feeling BH happen, and like I said, I definitely wouldn't have noticed it whatsoever if I wasn't poking around, haha. So idk? But THEN a minute later, I felt a hard, strange lump down and to the right of my belly button. It was so firm compared to the rest of my uterus...I honestly think it was BABY! I have never felt anything like that before, and it was SO cool. I asked DH to come feel it and he said he was afraid to push too much and that he *thinks* he felt it, but wasn't sure. I think it's a lot easier to feel when it's *you* (well, duh lol) because it's not just your hand but your body and inside that feels something...so I was kinda bummed he seemed to not really get what I was getting. Regardless, it was awesome for ME and I'm sure as baby grows and I get to feel real kicks, DH will have his moment :D

So that's my exciting happenings for now. Still haven't scheduled my 20 week u/s (whoops) and my next appt is July 10. Feels like things are so boring right now :p

Lastly, this weekend will be fun...it's DH's birthday! His brothers and I went in on an iPad mini together for him. He is in medical school and tons of students use them for electronic medical record keeping, medical apps, note taking, etc. And the mini will fit in his white coat :). I know he will be ecstatic and grateful to receive it. I love giving him gifts, and since I know he will be so excited, I just cant wait to give it him tonight at dinner. I'm bad at keeping gifts hidden...I always want to say something or give them right away, so I am bursting at this point! lol We are also going to a museum exhibit on Sunday about World Fairs of the 1930s (he has said he wanted to go? idk lol) and then dinner at Texas de Brazil, a Brazilian steakhouse. Never been, but we have a BOGO-dinner free coupon (score!) and it's all you can eat delicious. I should take a bump pic after that dinner so I can pretend to be huge for a night ;) ;)

I will try to reply to more people in a bit...for ONCE I am actually motivated to do some writing for my grant proposal at work. It's honestly been WEEKS since I've gotten anything productive done in one sitting. I pray God grants me the focus and will power for the rest of the day. Just gotta stick it out until 4... (< 6 hours for me!) Everyone enjoy their Friday and weekend! :hugs:
 
Aww, babymonkey!!! Sounds like you've got a fun few days ahead!! Hope your DH has a wonderful birthday and enjoys his fabulous gift.

It does sound like you had BH. The belly will tighten just like you described. lol And with my previous pregnancies, usually the BH would make baby tighten into a ball. I wonder if that happened to you, too, possibly. So exciting at any rate! Girl, you need to schedule your U/S so you can show us baby pics!! Even if you decide to stay yellow, I wanna see pics! LOL!! I can't wait till mine--four more days to go still. Eeeek. Dying to know here!

Thanks :) It's going to be a busy, but fun weekend I hope.

So interesting about the BH. I had never even heard of them until I became pregnant and started reading about them. It's interesting to have had possibly experienced it myself, now. It's nice to figure out what all of this stuff going on inside of my body is :p.

I think that's why I'm not as anxious to get the scan done...we are staying team yellow! So I think it makes it just slightly less enticing to get it done asap. I am definitely excited to see all the OTHER body parts, lol, and actually get a good scan pic. I have had two scans in the past just to see the hb at 10 and 12 weeks, and at 10 baby still looked like a blob with a giant head, and 12 looked like a baby for sure, but still so small and the machine they used both times was old and VERY undetailed. It was just a 15 second glance or so.

So this time I will be so happy to get a REAL pic that has not only more detail, but will be 8-10 more weeks developed than last time I saw him/her! Ahhh so crazy. That little booger is getting so big already... tear! :baby::haha:

Looking forward to your scan...what do you think you're having?
 
It's amazing to see how much they grow. It's so fun to get to see them on a scan.

I have a very strong feeling this is another boy. I've felt so all along, in spite of everyone else in the family thinking girl. And then we had an ultrasound almost two weeks ago, and there was a possible little sac that made me think it might be a boy. But the tech said to not trust that, because baby was too wiggly to get a good shot. lol I still think boy though!
 
FRUIT CHANGE DAY!!!!! Papaya!! lol

Being a piggy and eating doritos and cheetos lol I don't care I'm starving and the vending machine was calling my name!! :)

Have I mentioned before that I hate my boss??? LOL Well in case not I HATE HER!! She is such a sheep (a follower) I mean that is not a good quality for a boss. My co-worker suggests something and i get pooped on if I try to counter what she said because It's not 100% accurate but bc my boss is a moron she sides with the co-worker because "she has worked here a long time!" UM just because someone has worked somewhere a long time (5 yrs) does not make them an expert on EVERYTHING. So much more to this than I can get into but GRRRR makes me angry!! pregnant angry lady = no bueno!!
