Looking good!
I almost hit the hungry all the time when awful constipation hit. Now every time I eat I feel awful. Trying to eat as well as I can to keep things moving, but not having much success

Midnight_Fairy- cute!!! i feel like mines is mainly bloat but the bottom is harder so i think its a mix of bump/bloat. I actually asked midwife how to tell the difference and she said it's really hard to tell haha
Anababe- i dont feel particularly pregnant, but my ever increasing weight and headaches remind me i am haha, and when i feel the little baby flutters, but they are quite random.

Awh what a beautiful bump! You look great!
I'm struggling to eat too... Finding I get full very quickly, but want to eat. On the other hand I feel massive. I love my wee bump but miss my flat tummy and being able to fit into skinny jeans! But of course grateful!
Enjoying feeling the little flutters, I'm presuming is baby. 20 week scan a week today. Excited but also nervous like a lot of you! 💜

So jealous, you look adorable midnight! Mine is still easy to hide and only noticeable with no shirt.
Still feeling little flutters (seems to only be when I lie still) but I'm STILL not gonna be convinced it's baby until it's stronger.
Can't believe we all have 20 week appts so soon!

Hi Ladies!
We just got back from Florida yesterday morning. I had a big post typed up then accidentally closed the browser. So, here I am typing it all again!
Our vacation was amazing. We didn't do all that much since it was so hot out, but spending time with my family was more than enough!
My niece is an absolute doll and I couldn't get enough of her. She's a happy baby! She adored our dog and he was constantly making her giggle and squeal. DS got along really well with her! It was really cute to see the two together. Once he got her laughing he kept trying to get her to laugh. He loves to entertain! The last couple of days we were there he was giving her hugs. He was a little jealous now and then, but did amazing! I couldn't have asked for more. I'm sure it'll be different with a baby at home all the time, but I truly think he's going to do great!
When we first got there he got to play in a random Florida downpour. It was the first time he's ever gotten to play in the rain because it's almost always thunderstorms during the summer here. He loved it and it was great to watch him.
We went to the beach one day for a short while. It was beautiful with white sands and blue water! DS wasn't too sure of the waves touching his feet, but I took him in deeper and he loved the waves splashing us. Even when a bigger one would come and practically dunk us. He also loved running in the sand.
The ride down was a little rough, but he did much better the ride up. We hope to go down one more time before they move back up here, but we'll be either flying or driving down in a couple of days. That way we can maybe enjoy some sights on the way down and get a good nights rest. Plus baby will be here if we do make it down one more time.
They're planning on coming to visit for a week or two and will be staying with us, so I'm excited about that! I definitely miss them.
Just wanted to update on our trip! I'm going to make another post catching up with everyone!

Vrogers - That's so exciting that you're probably feeling baby!! I get not wanting to trust it. I do feel more movement when I'm lying still. Every night before I fall asleep I'll wait till I feel LO moving around! I'm sorry you're nervous about the scan. I'm sure it'll all melt away once you see LO!
Sunshine - I'm sure they make maternity skinny jeans! Lucky that your 20 week is today!! I'm excited for you! I still can't believe mine is next week.
Newbie - Each time I've dealt with constipation during pregnancy a cup of coffee was what did the trick for me. Stool softeners would help, but it wasn't pleasant. They'd get soft then too soft and my gut would cramp. I think I'm past the constipation for this pregnancy. I did the same last pregnancy, got constipated then I was more regular than before. Hopefully you figure out something that works for you!
Midnight - Adorable bump!! You look great! 4 hours away? That's insane! I'd probably cancel as well, but first I'd try to get something closer.
Ana - I'm feeling LO on the outside as well! I call for DH every time, but this LO keeps shying away! I'm not nervous for my 20 week, only excited!
Ally - It sucks having an anterior placenta. I had one with my first as well and I felt cheated out of those earlier movements! I was quite bummed about it, but I promise it'll get the point there will be no mistaking it! I tended to feel the most movements right under my rib cage when I was in the third trimester. He pushed my ribs out of place and they hurt for months after having him.
Momtastic - I'm on you with trying to contain the urge to start shopping. If it's a boy I won't need as much, but I still will have to get some. Either way though, I know I will go overboard!
Slammer - Congrats on the interview! Let us know how it goes! I want to find a new job, but since I'm pregnant I'm holding off. I'm in a good position when it comes to being able to get the leave I need when baby comes along. I work under my stepmother. My hours available are also very limited and she works with it. Until I find something that works for daycare or DH changes positions or hours I can't work many days. I hope you get the job! It sounds like a good opportunity. I've thought about finding a nursing job for the government.
Shobbs - Your DH is lucky! Mine is so eager to fee this one! He comes running if I say I'm feeling baby move from the outside.
KK - Thank you! It'll definitely be hard on our son, but I was amazed with how my son acted with his cousin. They sometimes surprise you! I'll definitely make sure to find time to just spend with DS. It'll give baby and DH time to bond!
Danser - I'm glad your appointment is coming up tomorrow. Bed rest would be pretty boring, but I'd be comfortable with it as well. Especially if I knew it was best for LO.
Angel - That's a cute reveal idea! I still want to have some family together to reveal to them first, but I'm not sure where to do it or what to do. My apartment is too small to have many people over. I would do it at my great grandmother's house since it's part way between most of the family I'd invite, but her health isn't the best right now. I don't want to stress her.
AFM - I'm starting to feel movement from the outside now! Although, it's hard to catch because this LO is all over the place. Definitely likes kicking my bladder already! Movement has definitely increased as well!
I'm kind of blow away by the fact that I'm 19 weeks already. I felt like I was still 16 weeks just days ago. Vacation definitely made it go by a little quicker! My 20 week scan is on the 17th! I'm so excited to find out what we're having! To think I'm just days away from half way through this pregnancy!!
I'm not that hungry, but some days I am. It really just depends. I keep gaining weight, so I must be eating enough. I actually want to slow the weight gain down a little. I would like to start finding easy meal plans and exercise routines that I can manage with two little ones in the home. That way I have something set up to start working on losing the extra weight after baby is born instead of fighting to figure something out while I'm busy with a newborn and a toddler.
Other than that not much going on!
If I missed anything or anyone I'm sorry! There was a lot! I hate being behind even if I am reading along!

Midnight - what an adorable bump!
Ali - that's exciting that your scan is next week already.
Is anyone else still sick? I felt like I was fairly lucky early on with things being decently mild, but I'm STILL sick and STILL so fatigued that I don't even feel like I've entered the second trimester. Today is a particularly nauseated day and it's taking all my willpower not to spew.

My gender scan is tomorrow, I'm crossing my fingers to hear 
but I have a feeling it's a boy ♡♡♡♡♡
I haven't gained much weight maybe about 6oz, not really hungry so maybe that's why. I thought I felt baby move at 13wks but haven't felt nothing since

My scan is one week from today! My sister and I were talking and we BOTH have had dreams in the last few days that my baby is a boy. Very odd, but I'm beginning to think more and more it could be a boy. Can't wait to find out

There is sooo much to catch up on! Sorry for the silence but my DH has been in hospital (ok and out now), my daughter turned two and work has been crazy hectic, i havent had time to blink!
I've had my anatomy scan now. Bub is doing well all seems good and we are team BLUE!
Also finally started feeling kicks when i am lying still. Its lovely.
Im off to go read all the pages ive missed but hope everyone is doing well!

Yeah I did it we have stayed team yellow......
I'm so pleased we didn't cave and find out. We found out with my last 2 and we wanted to keep this one a surprise as it's definitely our last. I say we.... hubby was desperate to find out he even made the suggestion of him knowing and not me lol.
My anatomy scan went beautifully baby was resting (I'm not suprised baby was moving the entire night beforr) and the sonographer was able to take all the measurements that were needed.
It was really cute at one point when the sonographer was trying to see babies lips baby had its hands up in front of its face to hide hehe.
However when they were scanning the kidneys I did try and see if I could sneak a peek but didn't see anything.... with my boys I could definitely see what I was looking at but this time nothing. I'm not taking that as any incline but I love this baby sooooo much
I'll upload my pic's as well as my baby bump. Looking forward to hearing all the upcoming scan details
