Babies due in JUNE!

[sadie]

Love it! So cute. Can you sell them? Open an etsy store!

My cousin, his wife & baby were in town and today they gave me loads of stuff! I feel like I just had a baby shower. Now I need to go to my registry and cancel a few things.... and funny enough, she gave me a box of lansinoh, in addition to a baby bjorn, an infantino, a vibrating seat, a tub, tons of clothes, a few 'infant toys', a mobile, a play mat, some books, a moby-style wrap, a car seat, some blankets, pacifiers, etc! By the way, she was 44 when she gave birth, au naturel!

Side note, I miss the ticker that gives me a percentage so I am going to add another one....

Ive got an Etsy shop, Folksy shop and a facebook shop! Ill probably sell a few at some point. Im not stocking anything on any of my online places just now. Ive just been concentrating on doing orders just now rather than advertising anything.

Wow, thats fab that you got all that stuff. Looks brilliant. We've just been given a whole load of stuff from OH's work colleague and one of his mates has just phoned to say he has put aside loads of stuff too. Its like Xmas!! lol x

Merry BabyMass- Sadie and Sunshine...lol!!

Yay! OH felt baby kick this morning for the first time. Was lovely. He put his hand on my belly and started talking to the baba and it kicked then he moved his hand away and kept talking to it and it kicked 3 times and you could see my tummy move. Dead pleased that Im feeling them on the outside now. Took its time!! x

That is so awesome! I am feeling more and more lately.... So nice!!

Today! I received a bassinet fromr a dear friend who had a baby last February. It is in my living room, in the corner, just waiting patiently........

It is so awesome feeling our babies kick! I love it! Not sure how much at 9 months. Lol. I am sure I will be telling a different story then as it kicks my ribs.

Went to hospital last night and they had to check me for leakage. Turns out they are not for sure, but strip test came back positive...but they think nothing to worry since It was not pooling and continually. I have to call my doctor on Monday. I am sure I will have to go back to get rechecked. Baby looks good...just a very scary ordeal at this stage in the pregnancy.21 weeks.

Destin, i can imagine how worried you must have been. Did any sort of movement on your end provoke the leakage or did it just start from nowhere?

i am glad they're feeling positive about it and that its no big deal. Keep us posted. xo

I was just walking. Tonight I have had period like cramps for over an hour now. I keep thinking every time I go to bathroom, I am going to see blood, but nothing. You think this is normal?

 

[sadie]

I dont know what to think, i'm sorry. i am a newbie at all of this. just dont google things. can you email your doc? Thats what I would do, or if you dont have an email for him/her, call if you are ery nervous.

Did you use one of those leakage detectors again to see if its still happening?

In any case, send an eamil and inquire about the cramps.

Sorry I cannot be more help.

I know fluid excretion increases in the 2nd tri due to increased blood flow to send nutrients to baby (It really did for me. I wear liners to help with feeling/staying drier). The cramping stuff could easily be Braxton-Hicks or uterus stretching. Be sure to drink plenty of fluids, especially water.

Thanks...I can't email...they don't give me that choice, so I have to wait. The hospital didn't send me home with any strips. Haven't noticed anymore leakage though...so hopefully that worry is gone.

That makes me feel better...thank you. Cramping is different from the Braxton hicks that I have been having. This s my 4th child so you would think I would be a pro, but I not remember ever having a gush of water, nor all this period like cramping. I am hoping for stretching. I have increased my water intake. It just worries me with the two going on at the same time. Thank you

Adorbs, Sadie!

 

[Ellie Bellie]

Love the bump, Sadie. Especially how it peeks out underneath your top!

 

[sadie]

Ellie, do you think i can walk around with my belly hanging out, at the 'older folks' community in florida, when i visit my parents? I should also wear a sign that says 'not married'. Just kidding.... My parents are cool with it, but my dad will prob be a little freaked when he says my belly in a bathing suit!

 

[Ellie Bellie]

Sadie - You can totally rock that look! Why not go with a pair of Daisy Dukes and a bikini top?

(Seriously, think about all the men with a "bump" larger than yours that let it all hang out both front and back!)

 

[sadie]

What a gross visual that was! And you are right! Better mine than theirs!

Ok, i have another question/comment.... Anyone on here have slight sleep apnea? I swear i woke in the middle of the night last night, like I hadnt been breathing. I startled myself, felt out of breath, almost like someone was covering my mouth, had to take a deep breath, etc. This happened a week or so ago, as well, but I just ignored it. Since it happened last night again, i did a google and they said a few women do develop it during pregnancy. Strange. And it was scary and i was nervous about going back to sleep.

Dont know if it will help, but i am going to try to sleep with my head higher elevated than normal.
