Happy third tri, peanut!!! I love looking at viability at 27 weeks...90%!!! Zaya will stay put

Welcome, maa!!! So glad to have you here!

Jdh, those scans are beautiful! I have no real idea how to guess gender but I actually would say little lady haha. But like you said, healthy baby is the real hurrah! little one is looking so great. I bet the 4d was a fun experience.

My LO definitely has dh's nose (very apparent in the side profile) and so everyone keeps automatically picturing boy...guess we'll find out in a few months, ha!


Afm: vday in 20 minutes! First birthing class tomor night, mw appt wed...busy and fun baby week for me!
Also had a talk with dh about him not seeming too interested ever in talking about baby stuff (basically he thinks we have forever to figure everything out) and he brought up the idea to me to talk about names today. So, yay! That made me feel better he's putting in effort. I know it's hard for the dads to get excited over the baby in utero considering I didn't even feel that excited until I started feeling regular movements (just didn't feel real until then!) but they should sometimes be willing to sort things out. He did a great job! If anyone is interested, I think we'll go with Ellie Elizabeth if girl ("light" and "consecrated to God") or Sebastian Mayan (Pronounced like "my-on") ("venerable" and "good friend") for boy for first names and Foster for both for middle name. DH is filipino and they often have multiple first names--DH even has three! Mayan is actually his dad's childhood nickname and we wanted to honor his father in the naming process. His actual name is Louis and neither of us liked that for our own lol so we choose the other name. Foster is the middle names because that is my maiden name, and it is also a filipino tradition to give all the kids the same middle name of the mom's maiden name. I'm not filipino, but we thought it was a cool thing to keep in the family And then that way we are also honoring my family as well!

[lovehearts]

WOW beautiful scan pics JDH. Its made me so excited for my 4d on Thursday.

Happy V day to those hitting it and Happy third tri to you other ladies.

I am third tri on thursday and im starting to have a little panic I have literally done nothing for the baby apart from sort through my sons old stuff and pick out all the plain stuff for her. I really REALLY need to get out and buy her some stuff. We are re-using a lot of my sons old stuff, cot , play mat etc but we still need to buy a new mattress and wash everything. Im a bit lost on what I need, you wouldnt guess its my second time Does anyone have a handy list?

Hmmm... I bought a new swing since we gave the old one away, and we need a new baby tub. We need new bedding, new bibs, new bottles, new binkies, some clothes as we didn't save everything from Danny, a new bassinet sheet... I think that's about it for baby... I need stuff for me, like a new breastpump and stuff like that...

Happy third tri Peanut! Hope Zaya is staying put like a good girl every day is a bonus!

I'm sure most of you saw my thread about my bleeding etc. possible preterm labour and I've just got to see how it goes and rest....
BUT
I'm finding it so hard already... My son is so clingy recently he only wants me, he wants cuddles and me to put him to bed and just spent an hr screaming and crying hysterically until I gave in and took over from daddy
So now I've picked him up I feel so guilty that I shouldn't but what do I do, I'm exhausted, I've had no sleep and I just want to
Hope everyone else is ok? And babies staying put!
Xx

 

[peanutmomma]

Many prayers for you and LO. I know it's hard to say no to your DS but just limit the picking up. You can sit and have him cuddle you on the couch or bed!!

I've been so neglectful on here (so very busy with some crazy things--it's a long story), but I wanted to just chime in with some encouragement for you. I know it's got to be so insanely hard. Just take it as easy as you possibly can. You're in my prayers!!!

Hope everyone's doing ok and that babies are growing well and behaving. I think of you girls a lot, even if I haven't posted daily in quite a while. Doing ok here, just really busy--DH is now working three jobs instead of the normal two, and I'm having to really pick up the slack. Anyway that's the short of it. It's really much more involved, but I won't bore you with details. lol

 

[lovehearts]

teacup, I was so sorry to see your thread. what a worry for you. As you know I have been on lifting restrictions from 13 weeks because of the bleeding etc. It has been so so hard and at times you HAVE to pick up your son. Sometimes you just cant avoid it. Like a bumped head or a cut knee, sometimes a cuddle at their level doesnt cut it and they want you to pick them up. Iv just made sure I only lift when I really have to. Its tough but remember its a short time until your little miss is here now and your son wont remember. xx

 

[BubsMom17]

I know about the lifting restrictions cuz of the placenta previa (find out on Thursday if it has corrected! *fingers crossed!*) Yep, sometimes you have to lift your kid. In and out of shopping carts, car seats, high chairs, strollers, tall potties, in and out of the tub... it unavoidable, really. I try to just see how I feel and do it only when necessary...

 

[teacup22]

Looks like lots of us having a tough time second time around!
Been getting pains today especially bad when I was cooking dinner... Seems to have eased off now I'm resting which hopefully means its just general aches and pains and braxton hicks?
DH keeps saying he doesn't think I'll make it to 37 weeks and it scares me I really wanted a homebirth for my last baby but obviously would prefer her to be safe!
Not sure I can endure another 13 weeks of this

 

[babymonkey18]

Teacup, hang in there and definitely rest if you are feeling pain or discomfort! And drink lots of fluids to ward off those early contractions. You're in my prayers every day
