Babies due in JUNE!

Forums New posts
Anyone else feel like there is already no room for growth for baby. I already feel and look about 7-8 months preggo. I am so depressed. This is my 4th pregnancy....I keep having shortness of breath because no room. Starting to worry me when I really am 8 months preggo.
 
Wow, Destin. Have you talked this over with your dr.? Maybe you've got ridiculous amounts of progesterone flowing in your system (which causes everything to relax and starts to kick in earlier the more kids you've had it seems for some). My dr. gave me a list of simple things for relief, but without knowing what the root cause is for all that's going on, I'd get a serious once over when I visited the dr. next. Keep us posted...

you could have low iron or something similar. They affect your oxygen level.
 
Hello Ladies! I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend! Things have been continuing to go well here, from what I can tell - I just don't always feel pregnant, just chubby. :) I made the announcement at Friday's staff meeting, as I'm definitely getting a more pronounced belly (mostly burgers and bloat, but still a round belly is sticking out). Last week was also my first purchase of maternity clothes from OldNavy.com, so I'm waiting the delivery of pants I can comfortably wear to work.

Yesterday, DH and I were talking about how smoothly things seem to be going so far - no vomiting, minimal nausea, good appetite, etc. I must have jinxed myself, as the hormones and headache kicked in today. Yes, I was crying over an episode of Dr. Who! As DH pointed out, it's better than my crying over the Walmart commercial a couple weeks ago.

I just don't want to be a bad role model.

I don't think you have ANYTHING to worry about! Over the past 20+ years, there's been a real shift in what defines a positive role model. And if there's anything I've learned from reading these boards, there are all kinds of parents and families. I don't believe there is a set rule as to which ones are good/right and which ones aren't. It truly is a matter of your personal values/priorities and how you choose to act on them. This is something that can't be faked. Your students (and their parents, colleagues, etc) already see you as a positive role model for a slew of other reasons. Your pregnancy doesn't take away from that - in fact, it just adds another reason because it's another way of giving light to who you are.
 
Oooh. Is a lime really after the prune? I guess an apricot would have been too big of a substitute for a prune..... And 'giant black olive' would have been too wordy. xoxo
 
Yes its a lime after a prune hun. x

Congrats to you too on being a lime today! I found my lime week passed in a flash! :thumbup:

Ive now got to teach my OH the next 4 fruits so I can quiz him at random times about what fruit we are. He is so cute when he thinks he is going to get it wrong! lol
 
This morning, in about 3 hours, we go in for the NT scan. I'm so excited to get another look at the baby!

Oh wow thats fab!! Let us know how you get on! You will notice a huge different in size this time!! I havent had any scans at all yet. My NT scan and bloods is on Thursday. x
 
Hee Sunshine. Happy PLUM!! :happydance: I just love the fruit analogies. When people go- o, you're not that big. I'll say to them- ummm, I'm just a little lime ;)

Ferne- yippers..you're a lime! :happydance: :)

Sadie- you hold your head up!! You're going to a responsible, loving parent and you're being a responsible, loving Mom already while you're nurturing your growing baby. Definitely something to look up to. :hugs: It'd be different ya know if you were out on the town knocking a few back at nite, snorting some white stuff, training for a kick-boxing match. ;) But you're far from that in a zillion ways. :thumbup:
 
Congrats Ferne on lime status!! And enjoy your NT scan. Show us pictures later!!

Thanks Star for the support! OH arrives this evening. Havent seen him in about 58 days!
 
Ferne-yay, you get to get another look at your sweet baby! My test is tomorrow and I can't wait!!!
 
I'm now the proud owner of a "Be Band" (lightweight belly band) from Target. Pants are definitely more comfortable with it on and I think it'll be getting well-used over Thanksgiving! I may keep it around to wear next year, just with regular holiday eating!
 
I was looking into the bella band but havent gotten to a particular store that carries it. Pea/pod only had their brand and i didnt have time to try it on.

Does it do a good job at concealing the openness of the pants or do buttons show thru? Does it lay flat or does itroll down? Thanks!
 
With wearing it this afternoon, it generally laid smoothly. I had it doubled over and it seemed to go well. Not totally flat - you could see the tabs from my pants through it, but with a cami and sweater layered on top it wasn't really noticeable. I asked some coworkers to keep an eye on things and tell me if my pants were looking funny. I think the length and looseness of the tops will make a big difference as well. And we'll see how it does with a larger belly and all that comes with it.
 
Hi girls! I had a great ultrasound this morning! OH came with me and for me it was special. Baby measured at 11w4d which gave me a new due date of june 9, but i dont want to change it officially, just yet. HB was 164 bpm. The little lamb was wiggling around like crazy! It was sooo cute. I'll change my photo later to the new one!
Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating! Happy wednesday to everyone else! xo
