End of May 2013 babies CONTINUED..

[pebbie1]

No snow here yet. Apparently it'll start here tonight.

 

[charbaby]

I am expecting the snow tonight as well, Schools will probably be closed :/

Passion - we plan to register too! We hope get more of the useful items from the registry as gifts since we're team yellow. I figure staying team yellow means we will have gender neutral newborn items that we can use for subsequent babies as this is our first. Although it's been hard this week!!! Having a tiny bit of team yellow regret lol

I like the idea of a baby show-off BBQ too. Maybe after the baptism or if we don't bother with that a lot of people around here are having non-denominational baby-naming ceremonies instead (although that's quite the mouthful haha). I'm sure my aunts and uncles will bring along gender specific items at that point too

Hope the schools stay closed for you ladies in the path of the storm so you can bundle up at home with the kids

[babyface15]

aw sweetest bump char!

I can't believe we're all getting so far along. Time is moving so quickly in 2nd trimester!

I'll be 23 weeks tomorrow according to my U/S. I'll have to update my bump pic too.

 

[charbaby]

I know were all be in 3rd tri soon! It's exciting
xx

 

[passion4shoes]

I am looking forward to v-day now. What fruit are we at 22weeks?

Gorgeous bump char. I can't wait for mine to be a bit more prominent.

I am feeling the team yellow regret too. Particularly during last week and everyone else's scans.

Any scans this week?

 

[OmiOmen]

Great bump charbaby.

I don't regret finding out but it would have being nice to stay on team yellow too. It turns out it was too hard for me not to know when DH did though.

My next scan in in just over 15 weeks now, providing no other issues come up before then. I would have thought that most May due dates would have had a 20 week scan by now?

 

[MizzPodd]

Hi ladies mind if I join in? My due date is May 21

I'm team yellow

 

[pebbie1]

Hi MizzPodd and welcome! Hope you'll enjoy it here and we have the same due date

My next scan is in 10 weeks. Quite excited to see baby again but of course I hope my placenta has moved.

Char, great bump! Amazing how we all went from slight bumps to proper bumps!

Passion. We'll be a pomegranate next if I'm correct

 

[MizzPodd]

Pebbie thank you do you have a low lying placenta? I do... Among other things lol cool we have same due date! I am just praying to make it full term. Loooong story; 2nd pregnancy very premature labor she's my guardian angel Chrisna Arianna
Current pregnancy pre eclampsia, prolapsed uterus, threatened preterm labor oh goodness! I'm on complete bed rest until delivery. Baby was starting to funnel and my cervix was 2.5 cm but since bed rest it's 3.9 cm so I am hoping bed rest will keep baby in to full term this time! I feel good about this pregnancy and very optimistic

 

[babyface15]

Hi Mizzpodd! Welcome to the thread

I can't believe we're so close to third tri.. kind of freaking out a bit here lol
but I'm so excited too!!

Passion my ticker says papaya for 22 weeks. I will be 23 weeks tomorrow, wonder what that will bring.

I have no idea if and when I will get more scans, I'll have to ask my Dr. about that at our appt. this week.

Oh dear, sorry to hear about your loss
How are you getting on with the complete bedrest? Must be hard!
I had pre eclampsia in my previous pregnancy so I'm on the aspirin and consultant led care. Hope it stays away this time!
And yeah, I have a low lying placenta so I'm having another scan at 32 weeks to see if it moved. Fingers crossed!
How's your bp at the moment? Last I checked today was 127/81. It's been going up over the last few days so I hope it settles again. I bought a home bp machine and check every day.

This thread moves so fast...love it...I have not wrote in a while but I read daily …Weather here has been crazy…it is middle of January and temp today was 70F (21C)…took a nice walk with one of my friends…it should be going down to 40’s (4C)tomorrow though….

AFM…I have a level II u/s tomorrow...so excited to see lo again ...I hope LO is growing like he is suppose to and I am also hoping that placenta has moved as it was partially covering my birth canal on my 16 week old u/s…

Hope all of you have had a great weekend…I hate going back to work after the weekend..

Thank you
My low lying has almost corrected itself! my bp is good an I have a bp checker at home too an I check it daily and then write it down. As far as bed rest, I was put on it with dd1 at 24 weeks to delivery which was 39 weeks so I am used to it. I have her now so it's hard because we had to put her in daycare because of it. I'm not allowed to pick her up or anything for that matter unless its light so it's been hard because she is a mommys girl. And she is used to me swinging her around and playing with her but I know I have to take care of her little sibling too so I just think that it's all going to be worth it! I hope I don't get GD this time tho. With pre e during first pregnancy, it stayed mild and I was able to deliver at 39 weeks! This time I am hoping for the same and with the weekly progesterone shot hopefully I will carry to full term.... I tend to talk a lot lol
I hope your placenta has moved! Especially since we will be in the last tri

One thing I like about being high risk is that I get checked every two weeks so I get to see baby each time. I try to take something positive out of something potentially negative

 

[charbaby]

Well woke up today with car covered in snow but hasn't really settled on the ground but seen the weather this morning and its saying more snow fall tonight.
How you all feeling? I am looking forward to ticker changing on Wednesday Love it every time 1 more week passes! x

 

[pebbie1]

MizzPodd I'd have the same with my little girl. She loves her mummy

Char the same story here. Snow on the car and that's about it! Bit disappointed lol
I'm still snoozing in bed as my girl is still asleep.

 

[charbaby]

I'm kinda glad to be fair, The kids have been hypo all weekend so looking forward to the peaceful day at school

 

[OmiOmen]

I am sorry for your loss MizzPodd and that you are having a rough pregnancy. I had pre-eclampsia and a few other issues in my last pregnancy and am supposed to be getting monitored closely but my consultant doesn't seem bothered about doing that.

More snow here again today. I hope it clears soon.

When did everyone start or will be buying? We are probably just going to get everything we need in March but we have started to decide what we want to get now. I want to get around to sorting the second bag of DS's old clothes we have today.

How is everyone feeling? I have felt exhausted the past few days. Poor DS is having to hang about in the bed room for a bit until I can wake up properly or if DH is off work he is getting up with him. Plus, DH has done the washing up everyday for a month!
