February Lovebugs of 2016!! 16 pink, 15 blue, 7 yellow

[jessthemess]

I'm 21 weeks 3 days and my belly is finally showing and hard! I'm plus size and I know some women show right away so I have been surprised that so far I haven't looked pregnant at all yet and I have just been losing weight. Woot woot for little bump!

Also I had a dream I went to pick the baby up from the hospital but I didn't have baby clothes or a car seat so they wouldn't let me take her. And I just kept looking at her and thinking I don't even remember how you got here!

I'm also having the anatomy scan on the 22nd of October and it will be nice to see photographic evidence of what the genetic tests told us. So this is looking to be an exciting month for everyone!

Btw, we haven't started buying anything yet.... It feels like it's kinda too soon? But I have my eye set one a really cute crib and changer set. And I should start watching out for sales for cheaper car seats/ baby carriers. But I've told family and friends to get us baby clothes for gifts, so we're holding back on those. We'll see how it goes.

I felt the same way and was too scared to look into anything just yet!

My scan is on 10/8. So nervous and just want to know that my little fella is developing perfectly and is doing ok.

I'm having a boy!!!!

it took me a little bit of time to wrap my mind it is a boy, because I was soooo certain it was a girl, but all good now!!!!

 

[SpudsMama]

Team So so so happy!! I'd really wanted a boy and had been struggling mentally with the possibility of gender disappointment for the last few weeks so to be told I'm having a little boy is just the best news ever

 

[hannahjex]

Haven't posted in months (life has been a bit manic lately). Hope everyone and their bumps are doing okay. We just found out we're having another girl 3 year old DD is thrilled, hubby will get over it lol.

Oh and they changed my due date to the 12th at my 12 week scan as baby measured 2 days ahead. They're WRONG, but whatever - baby will be delivered a week earlier by c section anyway, but I won't find out the date until much further into the pregnancy.

Sorry I haven't been on here much! Just not a lot to report. We had an anatomy scan yesterday and.... We're team !!

 

[LeahLou]

Prayers for us! They found that I have an Incompetant cervix so I will go in for surgery Monday to put a stitch in. Hopefully that will keep him safe until 35-36 weeks when they take it out.
Bed rest for a while. I can go to the bathroom and come back. Ugh.

 

[NennaKay]

Sorry to hear that LeahLou! Hopefully the bed rest passes fast!

 

[mommylov]

congrats on more gender reveals!!!

Leah, Im sorry to hear about your news. I have read lots of women having to have a cerclage done and the baby being just fine. Its great that they caught it now because if it were later, the wouldn't be able to do the stitch. Keeping my fingers crossed for you and baby.

Haven't posted in forever... life has been unbelievably busy!!!
We just found out we're having a boy! We both "knew" it was a boy so it was exciting, but not shocking to learn the news. We haven't revealed it to family yet because they don't live near us and we want to do something special...the suspense is killing me! Also, we have a DD so I'm excited to shop 'till I drop for all new clothes:happy dance: One more thing my due date was changed to Feb 9th.

Leah, I'm so sorry to hear that... I have no idea how I'd cope with bed rest. Hopefully someone takes really good care of you. I'm thinking a tv show or movie marathon may be in order along with some good magazines and books. All in all, I hope you find it passes quickly

Haha well what else are you suppose to do when in bed all day?
Random question does bed ridden literallymean you have to stay in bed all day or can you sit on the couch all day?

Congrats!!! We have the same thing going on at my house too lol. Until DH comes up with names, I just keep calling him by the name I like hehe.

Is it weird that I hardly feel movement any higher then right above my pubic bone?? I mean I do feel the occasional kick and punch here and there...but mostly when laying on my left side its right above my pubic bone...

Just wondering why they are not more spread around....

 

[Jaxvipe]

Mrswichman, baby is most likely head up so their little feet are what you feel moving. I am feeling baby down low most of the time too.

For me right now it means in the bed, on my back except when I have to use the bathroom. But it'll be more modified if the stitch is doing its job. So I will be able to get up as I feel ok to do so.
