Anyone feeling like their 9months pregnant already haha. I'm waddling Around from a trapped nerve and im so out of breath if I do anything. Can't imagine what I'll belike in a few months. On the plus side I can feel baby kicking Just today now it's happening loads ha nearly like I should have been feeling it all along. Some reassurance at last

My appointment went well ! Baby's heartbeat is strong and was beating between 160's-170's My doctor answered all of my questions and I feel so much more at ease. She is not concerned with the small hematoma in my uterus and says we will look at it at my 20 weeks ultrasound which is on March 12th!!!!

Also my next appointment is in 3 weeks on February 12th and I am going to have my blood drawn to check for any birth defects (Quad screening).

Otherwise everything looks/sounds good! No weight gain really .. I think I have gained maybe 1-2 lbs

I wish I didn't have to wait 7 weeks for the ultrasound but oh well ! I better be patient

Glad it went well, Babygirl!

Ugh you guys all I want to do is eat. I am resisting, but all I can think about is food, and we aren't having dinner until 6:30 (it's about 5 right now). Maybe Squirmy is having a growth spurt haha.

 

[Livvy]

Well babygirl I'm impressed that you've only gained 1-2 pounds... I've gained 12 already -facepalm-

 

[babyvaughan]

I gained 3lbs last I checked like a week ago! I get nervous to check lol I've been going on long walks to try to keep as much extra off as possible for now haha!

 

[Aelyana]

I am totally up to 10 pounds already! :-/ It was the same w ds, and kinda levelled out in 2nd tri. Hoping for the same w this one. But I am also v hungry all the time so it is gonna be a challenge for sure

Very psyched to get started on making a felt mobile for baby and ds's curtains for his big boy room! I have this awesome discontinued ikea fabric that I am gonna use.

Anybody else planning on making anything for baby?

 

[MamaBee413]

Babygirl, sounds like a great appointment!

Aelyana, I'm planning on making some things. Last time I made a sling and his crib bedding and curtains as well as some little things like a taggie blanket and sleep sacks. I'm excited to begin crafting with this one, but currently my sewing machine is out of commission. Working towards getting it fixed!

 

[Jrepp]

According to my scale (weight checked naked every morning) I'm down 2.5 pounds. According to the doctors scale (fully clothed) I've gained 1.5 pounds. I'm going with my scale as it's less impacted by external factors such as clothes and food I've eaten that day.

 

[dan-o]

I've gained 2kg in 2 weeks! Nothing much before that at all. May just be water weight though I'm feeling pretty puffy today!

Been having lots more bleeding, think I'm doing too much, so hard to take it easy with little ones!

 

[Bubbles1088]

I've gained too much already I think. Only been weighed at the Dr. though and their scales are super sensitive. They are showing me over 130lbs! I think I'm only 120-something though. My pre-preggo weight was around 115-120.

Dan-o keep us updated! You are in my thoughts!

My stomach is sensitive even when breathing it is slightly sore. I don't understand why but it's been like this all day x

Hi all

Just a quick check-in. I haven't had chance to check all the posts but will over the next day or so. Have been AWOL for a few days - have a horrible cold. It's hanging around & doesn't look like it's shifting anytime soon. If only I could leave my head in the fridge for a while I might feel much better!

I daren't weigh myself. At the moment I keep throwing up whenever I have an empty stomach - so I'm eating ALL the time. Urgh - feel like such a mess

Hope everyone is well. to everyone having a tough time. Will catch up properly when I feel human again!!

 

[Bubbles1088]

Hope you feel better soon, k4th!

Huh, funny, I am feeling the exact same way today… like my whole bump is sore. I am trying to drink a lot of water because I heard that can be a reason…

I lost just under 5lb this week from a tummy bug, so I've lost 1lb from pre-pregnancy.

I got another letter from the hospital iron is 8.7 now. I'm on two iron tablets a day as it is!

Have you thought of taking a liquid supplement? I took one my first pregnancy, easier for your body to absorb.

 

[Baby_Dreams]

Medzi I wonder if that's the reason too, I will uptake my water too x

 

[jbk]

Had my scan today at 14w6d!! Heartbeat was 152 and we are joining team blue! I don't know why it is sideways, but you can definitely see he wasn't shy!

 

[Baby_Dreams]

Congrats JBK xx

 

[sammynashley]

K4th, hope you feel better soon!


Tasha, I'm on iron tablets too, only one a day although my level seems fine a part to do with platelets is low. Not really sure what the midwife said..I have a brain like a sieve!

Congrats on team blue Jbk!

Only 7 days until out gender scan, can't wait to see baby again
