sunday we had the first of five family christmases. my brother told me that his sister in law just had a baby girl and named her faith. what?!!!! that's the name i've had picked out for a girl since I was little girl. the same thing happened with DS name. we were gonna name him hayden, but then my brothers brother in law named their baby hayden like 3 months before. they aren't in our family but we still see them throughout the year at my nephew's birthdays and things like that. so we named DS aden. if i have a girl i just don't think i can give up the name faith. i know it's not like it's my name like noone else can name their kid that, but dangit! i really love that name.

you are much braver than me. my husbands names would all be something dirty. he has suggested pooter for a girl or dick for a boy.

 

[Twinkie210]

Hahaha no way am I letting my OH name our baby. I have to carry it and give birth to it... I have naming rights! LOL

Ahhhhhh!!! SO excited for you, mail!! Wahoo! I'm right behind ya, I hope. I told myself I'd wait til Friday to test, but I might go for it in the morning now that you've been blessed with such good news. I dunno though. I don't wanna deliberate with line or no line--I want it dark the first time I see it. I'm a spoiled brat. Hee hee.

Just to be honest: I'm already behaving as if we've already gotten out BFP. Im being extra careful about how I sleep. I'm making sure to sit more often at work (teachers RARELY sit down all day--including while I eat my lunch). I've veggied and fruited up my lunch and snack. I'm all decaf. I know--crazy.

I'm also pretty terrified about what to do afterwards (after the BFP reveal). I still look in the toilet and on the TP after every wipe. I know we need to be extra relaxed, but 2 MC's in a row has my mind all messed up.

Ok explain the sitting. When I had my kids I went about life as normal. Do I need to sit more? That won't happen. I never sit. I have been on a bfp plan since we ttc. I tried to wait to test. We all see how that turned out. Just glad it was bfp.

I have had a lot of pressure lately. I have to pee a lot and feel like my uterus is gonna fall out. This happened last time too. My BFF says that with her 3rd she was in materity clothes by 8wks. Before my mc I couldn't wear pants. Too painful. Even now I just want to wear sweat pants. I am really trying not to be a nervous wreck but I totally am. I need to get to 8 wks to be ok with this.

Yep, I started feeling the bloat pretty early with the other two MC's. I'm sure it'll be the same now. I'm no little chicky to begin with--I fluctuate between 12 and 14, so I know I'll bloom faster--just comes with my body type.

With my last pregnancy, my doctor told me to take it easy the first couple weeks. Didn't really have a reason behind it, but I commented on being a teacher and always being on the move. He just said, well it can't hurt to slow down and take it easy for a bit.

Yeah, it's super hard to slow down. I'm a really active teacher. I get very animated while teaching.

Oh yeah, I'm peeing right before bed, then three hours later and then I also need to go right before the alarm goes off!

 

[mailcmm]

I just wish I knew what normal is. With my first two I couldn't tell I was pregnant. I had no symptoms at all.

And look at my ticker. That's just horrifying 2wks5days! Never should have tested this early. Next 5 weeks and 2 days is gonna take forever.

 

[moter98]

mail - i don't think you need to limit movement this early. do what you normally do. i was very active when i was pregnant with DS. i workout daily, cardio and lift weights up to 20lb free weights. my dr told me i could do that through my whole pregnancy. on my own i dropped it to 15 pounds, then at about 6 months i dropped to 12 pounds, then 8 months 10 pounds. i just lifted what i thought wasn't a strain on my body but enough to keep up my regular routine. i also was on my feet all day everyday at work for the first 7 months. no harm done. i remember getting more tired the bigger the bump got. your body will tell you when you need to slow down.

Totally agree. I was clearly stating what my doctor told me. I'm sure everyone is smart enough to know their own bodies. Do your thang, mail!

 

[mailcmm]

No worries. Wish I could rest more. Sure it couldn't hurt anyway.
