Calling any October OWLS!!!

[Juliet11]

lazy, good luck with your private scan!!

I also get strong hunger pains.
I sometimes get major stomach aches, even if I am eating mildly and not over or under eating... my doctor says stomach cramps are normal, but I worry when I get them pretty bad. I go in next week. And now less than 5 weeks till gender scan- so excited!!

 

[Juliet11]

hi all! how are the October baby mammas doing??
tomorrow is my check-up, but i hear they dont do ultrasound just doppler... excited to see the doctor though and make sure baby is okay!!

hows everyone? symptoms getting better?
weight gain is becoming an issue so i am doubling my 20-30 min walk to about an hour. im almost to my max weight when i was preggy with my twins!!

well just wanted to check in quickly. we sold our house and now living with family till we find a new house, so life has been crazy but good!

Gosh it's gone quiet on here.

I'm all well had my 16 week check up this morning and heard the heart beat for the first time.
Sickness and tiredness has gone now thank goodness and I'm actually feeling quite well.

 

[Lazydaisys]

I'm 16 weeks +. Still squeasy but not actually being sick. Put on more weight than I would like.

Does anybody else hate all the maternity wear? Think I'm going to be in very boring simple clothes.

I heard the baby's heartbeat last week on the monitor at the doctors.

Still waiting for my DNA results to check for downs syndromes. Will find out if pink or blue this week x

 

[Juliet11]

I am also 16 weeks! We don't find out gender for another 5 weeks! They couldn't get me in any earlier for a scan
i have to take another blood test and then will find out DNA results.
I pulled out maternity clothes a few weeks ago from my first pregnancy... gets a little boring wearing the same 5 outfits or so. I bought a few more tops at target.
Excited that in 4 weeks I will be "half way" with the pregnancy!

We finally managed to get our blood testing done. I agreed to find out gender this time, and we're having another girl! I think DH is a little bummed that he won't ever have a son, but TBH, DD is such a prefect, easy-going baby that I'm happy and not-so-secretly hoping that our new baby will be the same.

I'm into second tri now. I never get morning sickness, but apparently I make up for it with pelvic pain. I can feel the SPD slowly starting up again, and it's going to be a long time until October. I've also probably gained more weight this time (I wouldn't let them tell me my weight last time and won't let it happen again this time). I just cannot eat enough grilled cheese and pickles lately!

Ive been missing for a while, we are packing and moving this weekend so things have been crazy. We will be living with my mom until school lets out in mid-June. Then we will move to our new house in Houston with my husband. The packing, movers, uhaul reservation, etc is so much drama and stress. Im just ready for it to be done!!! (juliet-I am sure you can relate!)

I am also waiting to hear my spina bifida testing results. I found out we are having a little girl several weeks ago and had our downs testing too. All was well, so now I should find out today or tomorrow on this test. I am just waiting to hear and praying for the best results.

Lazy- I agree my clothes are so boring and plain. But my limited options and lack of interest in buying an entire new wardrobe limit my options.

 

[Lazydaisys]

My harmony down testing came back low risk so I'm glad o paid the money for peace of mind. ( my nhs screening said high risk)

17 weeks wahoo! X

 

[Juliet11]

how is everyone doing?? we've been busy with a house hunt...
excited to be 18 weeks along soon!

3 weeks till i find out gender and anatomy scan. symptoms are much better... gaining energy back slowly. but sleeping is getting harder. hard to get comfortable and have to wee a lot!

how is everyone else doing??

 

[JenJen80]

Hi ya how is everyone doing?

I had my 20 week scan yesterday and found out we are having another girl . Very excited and it means I can re use all my daughters clothes.
Scan was perfect and she is growing really well, my sickness has stopped but been replaced with heartburn .

 

[ready4num2]

I haven't been on in forever! I'll try to read to catch up

We found out were expecting a little boy! So much for staying team green!

 

[Juliet11]

I had 20wk scan today- it's a girl!!! Super excited to know.

 

[Lazydaisys]

I'm having a girl too 21 weeks 3 days x

 

[Juliet11]

How's everyone doing? We are having a busy summer. Less than 2 weeks till we more into our new place!!!!
22 weeks along now. For a couple days I felt major hiccups and pops. Then not so much the pass few days. I have anterior placenta so I hope that's why. Frustrating a bit because my last pregnancy I think I had lots of movement by now but did have two in there!2 wks until my 24 wk updates so anxiously waiting for that.

I'm 23 weeks today. Having s crap time, my husband left me 5 weeks ago. Now he's messing me about n the should he come back should he not game. So fed up. Thus was a planned ivf baby I'm so cross with him. Deffo took the shine off the whole baby thing x

[Juliet11]

lazy so sorry, i hope things have improved since your post??


well we are moving into our new place this week, so tiring while pregnant!!!!!

patiently waiting for october to come, so far away. at least in a couple weeks i will be in third tri.

how's everyone doing?

 

[Baby.Love12]

I am 25 weeks 5 days and my feet swell so bad. Does anyone else have this? I see Dr on July 13th but am worried about pre eclampsia.

 

[Juliet11]

baby- just remembered we have the same due date! saw on my ticker only 99 days left!
i have slight swelling, especially at the end of the day. but it is nothing like i had in my last pregnancy where i did have pre-eclampsia, I was almost 36 weeks and ended up having my twins.
maybe ask for an earlier appointment or ask to do a protein pee test?
do you have any symptoms like high blood pressure? a quick call to the doctor i am sure will ease your worries.
let us know how it goes.
