thats great tobaira.... its really special that you can feel your girls...

mine is so active i swear he is going to be a rugby player!!!! its really weird and kind of freaks me out!....i asked oh if he wanted to feel and he said no your alright!!!huh!!!

i guess it freaks him out abit!

 

[Claire1]

Thats lovely Tobaira, enjoy whilst they are still gentle!
My husbands a bit like that Trix, sometimes he wants to feel, other times he doesnt. x

 

[StranjeGirl]

Thats great tobaira and baby2310!! So glad you can now feel the babies! Hope yours are gentle tobaira as you've got 2 in there!!! That is exactly what it felt like for me, muscle twitches. It still feels like that. Mine is pretty gentle, and no where near as active as yours trix. It worries me sometimes! She also has no pattern lol. Now my stomach moves a lot and it is fun to watch!

HOw did your shots go trixie? Everything go smoothly? I hope so!

Hope all is well! Been one week without a bleed for me, woo hoo! Unfortunately I gained 5.5 over the past 2 weeks. I was doing so well and right on track, but not any more I'm not sure what happened, but if it keeps up like this I'm in big trouble!!!

Hope all is well with you guys! Enjoy your weekend!!

 

[Claire1]

Thats good news Stranje, hope it continues. Hope you have a good weekend as well!

hi stranje.....yeah the injections are now over and done with, i have the doc again on tue.... cant believe i made it to 26 weeks.... im getting excited now...out looking at cots and feeding stuff....im going to be sooo broke!!!

 

[StranjeGirl]

Congrats trixie!! I've been worried too about preterm with all my bleeding. We will probably be the ones who have to be induced at 42 weeks lol!
I know, everything is sooo expensive! Do you guys do baby showers over there where you register and people get you stuff that you registered for? That will help us out a lot, but there is still stuff we need to buy...which is the more expensive stuff that adds up very quickly!!!

Hi everyone!!
That's so great Tobaira...isn't it the best feeling ever!! I'm with you Trix, sometimes my husband is all about feeling him kick, and other times, I think he could care less. My little man is such a wriggler too! But I never get tired of it! (I may be singing a different tune once he's all up in my ribs! Haha!) And congrats to making it to 26 weeks!! It seems like the time is flying by now, and I sorta want it to slow down a bit....I feel like there is still so much I have left to do! I will feel a lot better once I have the nursery ready!

Hooray for a week-free bleed Stranje!! Can't believe you're 28 weeks! Already in 3rd tri!! Awesome!

The place that is making my baby bedding called yesterday, and it's ready!! I'm going tomorrow to pick it up! I can't wait to see it!! Since I custom made it, and I'm really not all that crafty, I really hope it turned out ok! It's just a good thing I was not the one to sew it! And I also just ordered my crib....on sale for $99 from target...so excited!! My bedding cost 3x that amount! Haha!! But it was the crib my husband and I both really loved, so I'm glad it was the cheapest one!!

Hope you all have a great weekend!!

I forgot about having to buy a pump!! I better make a list and start saving!

 

[Tobaira]

omg I know, so expensive! We went to do my registry this weekend and I was like wow!!! The big stuff almost seems cheap in comparison!

yay I'm 24 weeks today!! and DH got to feel the babies kick this weekend so happy stuff.. now if I can just shake this cold that is attempting to get me!

 

[trixie79]

congrats tobaira on making it 24 weeks!!!!!

 

[StranjeGirl]

Congrats Tobaira!!! What a huge milestone!

How is everyone doing? I'm so excited to be a squash finally! I hate that as you get later on you are stuck with the same fruit for 3 weeks!!! I know it is dumb, but I always looked forward to the new fruit every week lol.

Hope everyone is doing well!!!

 

[workingttc]

Hi ladies! Congrats Tobaira. Yay for your squash, Stranje!

So we had our 20 week anatomy scan yesterday, and we completely changed our plans and found out the gender - we're having a boy! DH is thrilled, I'm really psyched too - definitely want a girl at some point, but happy to have boy first

 

[lilrojo]

Congrats on making it to 24 weeks tob. hope your feeling well..

Yay for a squash stanje... cant believe your almost 30 weeks...

Congrats on team blue working... hard to stay team yellow at your scans.. lol I wavered for a moment.. but we stuck with it.. would love to see some pics sometime if you want to share them..

 

[_dreamer_]

congrats on hitting 24 weeks tobaira
Yey for being a squash stranj, i love the different fruits too. looking forward to not being a papaya! (oh just realised im actually an eggplant lol whoops maybe i dont pay so much attention!)

congrats on the ickle baby boy working! i admire people who can stay team yellow lilrojo, we were too impatient lol. i do have some sneaking doubts every now and then though, as this will probably be my only scan unless there are complications, what if they've got it wrong lol. all our big things and the nursery are neutral, but we've brought some girlie clothes, and everyone who's buying us bits wants to buy girls things. would feel so bad if it was wrong! oh well nothing we can do

had my 25 week gp appointment on monday, and he said i had traces of sugar in my urine sample. he didnt seem too concerned but said my midwife will monitor it at my 28 week appointment, and it could indicate diabetes so they'd keep an eye on it. heartbeat was 150, lovely and strong, and i measured 25 weeks according to the belly measurement lol.

hope everyone is feeling ok this week, can't believe how we are all progressing

 

[_dreamer_]

ooooo down to double digits!!!!!! 99 days to go!!!!! x

 

[Claire1]

Congratulation Tobaira and workingttc! Its so hard not finding out....we're still team yellow but have a scan on 7th nov to check my placenta and growth of baby. Hope I manage to avoid finding out! Ive also got a gestational diabetes test on fri, so hope I pass!
Glad all you other ladies are doing well. Im feeling the baby even more now, its actually waking me up every morning at 5am...guess I'll have to get used to it

 

[lilrojo]

Lol, i wavered for a moment on staying yellow.. but now im so excited to find out what it is at delivery..

 

[LadyL]

Congrats on your little boy Working!!
And glad your appt went well Dreamer! and congrats on double digits!!


Had my glucose tolerance test today...and I passed by ONE point! Haha! I'm so glad! Everything else was great. Baby's HB was 155. And Dr. said my weight gain was perfect (which is 21 lbs...I've actually been worried that I've gained too much!), but he made me feel better! I go back Nov 17th for my 28 week scan to see if my placenta previa has corrected itself (and I'll be getting the 3D scan with a DVD, so I'm super excited for that appt!)...Ready to see my baby again! Then it's on to appts every 2 weeks from then. It's hard to believe we've all made it so far already!!

I took some pics of Jack's bedding with my phone, so I'm gonna try to upload them from my phone to here for y'all to see.....It's not on the crib yet since his room is still under construction! Haha!

So glad everyone is doing well!!
