Due In May :)

Great news Jary!

 

[Sass827]

Good stuff Jary! That sounded scary!

 

[Jary]

Thanks guys, it is a relief. Baby is completely fine and even wriggled about while I tried to get some sleep in preparation for my nightshift. But generally he or she has decided to have a laid back day lol

I could have dismissed the hb drop but glad I had it checked out.


Anywho, how's everyone doing?

Doing good over here. Waiting for my shower like a kid waiting for Christmas Still got over a month, but I just can NOT wait! I guess time will go by faster if I look forward to 3rd trimester first, because then it'll only be 3 weeks until shower I really just want the floors to be refinished && have the furniture so I can start getting the room together, I feel like I'm trying to "nest" but I kinda can't because it'd be pointless to start organizing stuff in the room because it'll just have to come right back out in a few weeks. Hubs better plan on having the floors done by the shower so I can come home and immediately start organizing and making lists for what we still need lol A friend of ours bought some stuff for baby today! She got us a highchair cover for like restaurant high chairs, and a teething mouth piece thing (not too sure what it's called lol)

Got a coupon for a free Similac Simply Smart bottle. We have 1 already and plan on using Dr Browns for when we do use a bottle, since I'm going to BF. BUT I LOVE coupons && free stuff even more hehe

*cricket*cricket*

How's everyone doing!?!

99 days to go over here!

 

[Jary]

Eep! Yes I put on a pic of my pregnancy app on fb saying we are in double figures

I'm good, just hating work more than ever and steadily growing! Wriggles is being lazy but nothing much happening apart from that!

We're having our third trimester ultra sound in 2 weeks. I can't wait to see better pictures of her fattening up. Are other people having those soon too? I'm excited for my third tri starting in 3 days, we're heading to the home-stretch.

 

[Powell130]

We're going to do oue 3D US on the 23rd I'll be 27w4d

 

[BellaRosa8302]

I was told I don't get another ultrasound unless there are complications/I turn high risk, or if I go past my due date...

I was thinking about getting a 3D one done privately, but DH has NO desire. Oh well. I guess we'll be as surprised as surprised can be!!!

 

[Powell130]

Yeah my doc wont be doing another unless there's an issue. We're doing this one privately. I feel it's a must have since I keep seeing 3D pics on my news feed, I"m like I gotta have one! lol plus a friend is going to the same place we did and will use us as a referral so we get 50% off so the 3D will actually end up cheaper than the gender US we did in December!

 

[Jary]

We're not having anymore. Only do if there's issues, so next time we see our little one will be when they come out

 

[Hann12]

We had a 4d one with DD and I also had to have one at 36 weeks to check placenta positioning but with this one I don't think we are having any more. We could pay to do a 4d but I'm so worried that I'd accidentally find out the gender that its completely putting me off. Plus our 4d one was so clear of DD that she really looked like the scan showed and DH doesn't want to know what he/she will look like. Plus he pointed out that DD really loked like a girl on the 4d so thinks that even if they stay away from the 'area' we will still know. So unless I'm measuring small I won't get another. I'm actually okay with that though, feels like its not long to wait now so I'm fine. Time is going fast although I do remember the 3rd trimester going slowly last time due to the amount of pain I was in. My back is still holding up though which is amazing although my Pilates class has been cancelled as there wasn't enough participants so I'm no longer doing that. And my hips/SPD are in a worsening place. We get a new mattress at the weekend and I just hope that helps!

Had my 3d on saturday he slept the whole time haha was yawning when we started got a few good shots though.

 

[mathgenius33]

Then I guess we're lucky. Everything is going really perfectly with the pregnancy right now, but we've got one scheduled for the 21st. I think maybe they want to see her position. As Hann said, they also told me we'll be doing a 36 week one. My third trimester starts tomorrow, at 26 weeks 5 days (exactly 2/3 into the pregnancy).

 

[Sass827]

Were getting a free 3d scan as part of the research study I've been participating in on february 22 and I could not be more excited. I hope it's a good machine so we can get a good look at her.
We saw a physically deformed toddler on the beach yesterday and it gave me nightmares that something would be wrong with our baby. I feel like such a bad person. It was just so sad. I just want to see her to get another a-ok from a professional.

 

[Jary]

Anyone able to balance stuff on their bellies yet? I've had my cup of tea on there today except I daren't leave it because baby is kicking....could end in disaster! My friend who is 37 weeks pregnant put on Facebook that she should never put her dinner on her bump because it ended up on the floor. Lol.

Saw the nurse that is due the same day as me and her ms has returned...really hope I don't get mine back!

 

[Hann12]

Ha ha no Jary not attempted it!
I burnt my bump last time around when I dropped a hot soup on me (not through balancing it) but it scarred so I'm steering clear of doing things like that!

27 weeks today!

 

[Powell130]

Happy 27 weeks!

 

[shellgirl]

Hi Ladies! Happy 27 weeks Hann!

So I purchased my stroller/pram/travel system! I'm a tad nuts. I heard about the Cosatto Go Lightly and when I looked it up, I simply had to have it! They don't sell it here and Cosatto doesn't ship to the US. I finally found a retailer there in the UK who would ship it to me (for a hefty price of course) and placed the order yesterday. I really didn't think hubs was going to go with special ordering a stroller from England, but when I showed him the pictures, he said, "I love it!" I nearly fell off the couch! He has not been too interested in the baby gear at all where as I freak out about every little sock or hair bow. I can't wait to get it. It's just so different from anything we have over here. Look how pretty!

 

[Powell130]

Omg i absolutely love it!
