Bloating. It happens! Your actual uterus is still pretty low down in your pelvis, but the bloating is ridiculous. It'll taper off and get replaced by real bump in the near future!

ya my bp has been okay stress well thats another story. lol my dr gave me a fulll work release UGH! left dr and had an anxiety attacke and begged OH to not go but it didnt work lol

mommyof2peas-- I'm doing really well, thank you for asking! It is getting so close, I'm so ready! Just uncomfortable sleeping at night, and noticing more Braxton Hicks and pressure during the day, but that's about it. I totally hear ya about 30 weeks... I remember when I transitioned into 3rd tri, I had some sort of crazy fluctuation in my hormones or something, because I had awful insomnia and anxiety. It did level out in about a month or so, thankfully. I don't remember having any of this with my first, it's amazing how pregnancies can be so different! Btw, I love your bump pic!

Mal-- I'm glad your BP is cooperating. But I want to send big for the anxiety. Anxiety attacks are awful, esp when fueled by pregnant hormones!

i just brought bt200 hi bebe doppler-shall i wait a few weeks to use it x

 

[lilmackate]

I'd try it! Put it at your pubic bone and tilt it downward and then go side to side keeping it low (the doctor showed me and it worked) he told me the uterus doesn't leave the pubic bone till around 11 weeks so your shot of hearing it is if you are down. I hope I make sense.

 

[babyhopes2010]

ill wait until my scan on 28th

Love the bump mommyof2peas!
Everything is good here, just really busy. We are moving from Minnesota to Utah the end of May, and my husband will start commuting in a week and a half. So we have been trying to get details sorted out and packing done, since he will be gone 5 days a week or more the whole month of May.
Hope everyone else is doing good!

I'm a Doppler pro, babyhopes can I come listen to your baby? I heard my last few babies at 8w 2-3d. I put the transducer above the pubic bone but angled to point behind it. Once you hear your baby you'll be wanting to catch a quick listen all the time. It's so reassuring before you can feel your baby moving.

 

[babyhopes2010]

Im just afraid that i wont be able to find it and then panick thinking the worst

 

[Megg33k]

That happens to tons of girls, Clare. I can't blame you for wanting to wait. I think I'd be the same. And, I don't want any unnecessary worries in my next pregnancy!

P.S. Going to hopefully get knocked up in less than 1 hour now!

Little update on me: I was having Braxton Hicks all day yesterday, but irregularly, which is nothing new. Around dinner, they started getting stronger and more consistent, more frequent. I ignored them. After dinner I noticed they weren't stopping, so I took a warm bath to try to make them stop. It didn't help. I tried walking around, laying on my left side, etc. They wouldn't stop. So, I started timing them for an hour. They were every 3-4 minutes on the nose. I called my doctor, they said to stay home until they get painful, and to try a warm bath (which I already did), and to have a glass of wine. So, I drank a half glass of wine, and noticed they started to stop. I went to sleep, woke up this morning as if nothing ever happened! Now I know what false labor is! I never had this with my first.
