August '14 Sunflowers. 27 angels. 48 pink, 28 blue. 74 HERE!!

Addy .. My hips have been sore lately too! Its horrible! So i recently got a body pillow which has helped a little. My little man likes to curl up into my hips when i lie on my side so not very comfortable at all! .. All worth it though in the end i suppose :)

All three of my pregnancies have been this way....my hips get so sore! As soon as the baby is born, it goes away. I find my sleeps are so disrupted because of it. But yes, so worth it in the end:)
 
I'm much more active on FB, but baby girl is so active! She loves to kick and especially loves sugar. DH calls her our little ninja/ballerina/gymnast. He's been able to feel her and my sister even felt her yesterday! I'm still feeling nauseous and have tons of aversions. I certainly hope they go away after she's born!
 
Hey ladies now are you all?
Not updated in a few days. Had my scan on Friday, mini me is still very much a boy. A shy one tho. Took ages to get a good picture but the one we got was amazing. They cheekily took it in 3d hehe.
He's measuring bang on his dates and looking perfect in every way. I'm starting to really sprout out now lol.

How is everyone else?
Xxx
 
When are we supposed to start kick counting? I ask because I've been feeling a little worried the last few days as usually I feel baby moving around atleast 5 times a day, some days a lot more. But the last few days I haven't felt much, infact yesterday I felt a few little flutters once and that was all. Usually I get big kicks and you can see my belly moving etc. I do have an anterior placenta so I don't know if this has something to do with it but it's been worrying me a bit! I'm only 23 weeks though so not sure if that's too early to starting taking notice of movement yet? It just seems strange that for the past 5 weeks I've felt lots of movement and suddenly hardly anything.
 
The baby will slow down its movements during growth spurts and will change sleeping patterns. I would really not worry. I don't think counting kicks will do anything but make you worries at this point. I really have never counted kicks with any of my pregnancies, because you just never know what they are doing inside (sleeping for example). If you feel nervous, lay on your side and kind of push on your belly to get the baby to move. Within a few minutes you will feel something. Also, the baby is still pretty small, and chances are, we just do not feel all the movements yet.
 
Thanks Hun I told myself I wouldn't worry so much the second time round but I can't seem to help myself! I have felt a few little movements today since writing my last post but will def try lying on my side later on.

It's even worse when you're trying to do a little work around the house, like laundry, by the end of the night it feels like the hips are about to snap :p Another thing I was told was to just keep drinking water... although I know it's not the 'favorite' drink, it'll keep the muscles from cramping up.... my biggest issue so far is the Charlie horses in the legs and feet, ack, it's awful.


@WanaBaba
I was feeling the same way the other day, little man wasn't moving at all for hours, then all of a sudden it was like he was in a fighting ring! lol
I know it's hard to say don't worry but as the weeks progress the kicks and movements will get stronger and even stronger and soon you won't be able to move without feeling their movements too lol
 
Just wanted to add one more for team pink! We found out Friday!

Baby was laying tranverse so they couldn't quite get all the pics of the spine they wanted. I may have to go back in for more pictures. Otherwise, everything looked great!!

Congrats on your little girl! :D
The spine is always the worst picture to try and get, especially when all baby wants to do is curl up ^_^ But that's just another chance to check up on baby if they need you to go back :)
 
Yup, they called me just as soon as I hit post and scheduled a follow up for this afternoon.
 
Had a surprise ultrasound today at the specialist. Found out we're team :pink: too!!
 
That's great jjsmom!

Baby had me worried today, I've been feeling them every day during the day then just before bed. I'd had nothing all day then had a lie down when I got home from work to feel a few flutters. They picked up when I went to bed though and have been wiggling since. Phew! I know it's too early to kick count but I was starting to panic!
 
OH felt the baby kick tonight! like 4 or 5 solid kicks. i had to have him push down a little on the top but man, that kid is strong. and so active. but first kicks for OH! yay! and his first baby kicks ever :)

It's funny how you feel them then all of a sudden, no movement. They are moving in there just not as active as they normally are at times. Other times, you are too busy to really notice it. Baby could have been asleep a lot during the day and chose the night time to wake up. A lot of people say they can feel their babies more at night, but again I think it's because they aren't as busy and really pay attention to every little thing they feel. :) Try not to panic if you don't feel it for a bit. Next time, drink some orange juice and sit down for a minute and really pay attention.
 
Half way there!!!! 20 week scan tomorrow - can't wait to see baby again and hopefully see if :blue: or :pink:

I feel my little one a lot right before bed, and early in the morning. He seems to stay up all night:) Could be trouble when he is born!! :haha:
 
I am glad to report after many flutters throughout weeks, I think we are finally there, at the kicking motion stage. Started on Monday, when my DH was putting baby dresser together and I was laying in bed. Like small nerve or muscle twitches, had to google it to make sure it's a possibility. Baby girl is on the left side and have been feeling her on and off since, mostly when in bed or sitting down. He has not been active all that much, but I know they both woke up last night when I went potty. When I laid down, DH touched boy side and bam! He did feel tiny girl movement before, but this one made him jump, haha.
