June 2013 first time bump buddies wanted

[pinkwaters]

Hey No Doubt, Thank you.
I know pregnancy hormones are messing my head up, one moment I'm fine the next I want to ball up and cry. Grateful today is keeping me busy and I need to tidy up our place start making space for the baby, that should distract me.
I keep reminding myself he's doing something he loves and has waited a long time for!

I already anounced my pregnancy, even told my boss at work. I know its very early but I was away due to morning sickness for a while and a lot during the IVF process. Still haven't told all my friends though.

I'm not going to be doing cloth diapers but my friend did, I'll be back to work 2-3months after delivery so mum will be taking care of the baby for a while, easier for her too.

I called up a yoga place and they said its too early to start now ;/
Said after 11 weeks should be safe, has anyone started yet and what did you hear about that?

 

[No Doubt]

My doctor said working out was fine, just nothing to heavy. She said walking and that sort of thing and that preggo yoga should be fine.

 

[pinkwaters]

I really want to start, my BMI is 26 already and I don't want to loose muscle I've stopped aall workouts since IVF procedures. I just called another place up and they said after 4 months! huh
I'm still searching online for more places. I make sure I'm moving throught out the day, the weather is beautiful in Kuwait now (very rare), and only lasts till March - April so I'll be enjoying the outdoors until then as much as I can!
I have a weak back so I think Yoga will really help me for delivery later on!

When I first went for IUI the nurse told me nothing that made me red in the face or break a sweat. Preggo yoga will do neither, I promise. Do not hold your breath, ever, and be careful not to overheat. Which is why they say yoga, swimming, and walking are perfect!

I think the 3d scans are a bit creepy... Lol. We want to be surprised an I change my mind almost every day whether I think it's a girl or a boy!

Although I like the *idea* of cloth diapers, I don't think it would last long in our house. So, Pampers it is. I am hoping to breastfeed, and to make as much baby food out of what we're eating as we can. We'll see.

Remembrance Day here today, church should be good and emotional for preggo me! Grateful for all the people who have served, and that no one in my family is serving now.

I want to do cloth diapers! There is a great shop somewhat close to me that is geared toward cloth diapers and others things a well but they offer classes on everything too! Of course we will use disposable as well, for when the baby is being watched by other people. I still don't know about much as far as which ones are best or anything but I'm excited!

First ultrasound is wednesday! I can't freaking wait!!

 

[pinkwaters]

Oh that's great Toni! I hope everyone here continues to hear good news!
Mrs Kibler! That is so exciting! Plz upload a picture!!
I'm annoyed my next scan isn't on my 12 week mark, the doctor placed it at week 13 I don't think I CAN wait that long haha

I'm binging on some nutella on bread as I type - sad to admit - BUT so yummyyyyy right now

Feel like taking a nap on my desk - ah back to paper work!

 

[No Doubt]

Morning ladies. On my way into work and seeing how hubby is out of town right now I have to take the germ infested bus. Ick...I'm such a germophobe. Anyway, there's nothing new with me. I woke around midnight last night and couldn't go back to sleep so I called the hubby for q few minutes and I fell asleep shortly after.

He sent the sweetest text last night that said he was finishing up with the first conference and that he didn't call cause he didn't want to wake me, but all he could think about was me and the baby and that he loves me. I saw that when I woke at midnight and didn't want to wake him so I didn't respond, but ended up calling him anyway, lol. He said he really misses me which I was glad to hear so I know it wasn't just me with the I miss you blues.

So excited that I am 11 weeks today and believe it or not I can feel Thumper to the touch. That has been a help in finding the heartbeat cause I know where she is, so I after I feel the hardness in that area, I know where to put the probe. So there is no turning back now as far as the pants not fitting, so I think it's time to maybe invest in some maternity pants...especially cause I had to chase the bus a little and my pants were falling down as I was running cause they're not zipped, lol.

Bahahahahaha... I hear you. I'm 11 weeks today too and very excited. I've been able to feel that little bump since about 8 weeks. They told me my uterus is right in the front. Oh good, i should be enormous! LOL no wonder my clothes don't fit. I love my new maternity jeans, especially when I'm bloated.

My mom is bringing her sister and my two teenage boy cousins in for a visit today, we're pretty excited to tell them tonight. My aunt will be ecstatic. Back at work tomorrow

When they say the baby is the size of a lime, I'm pretty sure they mean a key lime. Because the next size is plum. Unless we just have monster limes in Canada?

Haha I'm not zipping my pants either Have to pull them up everytime I get off my desk - I think it's time to atleast get bigger pants

Your hubby is so cute - very thoughtful of him (knowing how hard it is to get to sleep its a nightmare when I wake up in the middle of the night)

Last night was the first time I sleep alone on our bed in 2 years now - I spoke to hubby a little at 12am he had just arrived in Paris. I stayed up fussing around in bed till 3am - waking up to work was no fun.
But I feel like I'm starting to adjust to him being away a little - better than yesturdays crys every hour or so haaha

27 I don't get the fruit thing at all certainly feel more bloated than the size of a kumquat!

Do you both have scans set for 12 weeks?

I have one booked for 13 weeks with the fertility specialist, but that's only because I was bawling at the last one (9 weeks) so she said I could come for another one if it would make me feel better haha. My regular Gyne/obs will do one at 18. I have the glucose test and bloodwork at 12 weeks.

Hi all,

I'm into week 9 today and am so pleased to finally be in the last third of the first tri, I really hope things start to improve soon. I'm just so sick of feeling sick!

With my appetite being so greatly increased I'm just piling on the weight, so while I can't make out a bump yet most of my clothes are feeling tight anyway. Not impressed.

My hubby is working away today until Wednesday and I hate it every time! It just never gets easier and feeling rotten doesn't help my coping skills.

to you all, I hope you're all feeling alright.

 

[No Doubt]

Don't worry 27, you won't be any bigger than me cause my pants haven't been sipped for a few weeks, lol. This is just the first time that I've actually felt the firmness...maybe because I was feeling around to use the doppler.

I have the genetic testing and will most likely have an u/s then. Bit I have to reschedule as its supposed to be done within 11 weeks and seeing how baby was measuring bigger and the fact that they did the 28 day cycle I would 13 weeks and miss it completely.

Ylanda I hope you start to feel better hun. I started feeling better around end of 9 weeks beginning of 10. Every now and then it sneaks up on me again, but it's not an everyday or all day thing. Just maybe an hour at most and that's on a bad day.

 

[pinkwaters]

27 - Now I feel like I should've cried a little there haha - ah well - three weeks, only three weeks left

Ylanda - Nausea will ease off soon dear, it started to fade for me during week 9! Don't worry about the weight, I know it can get pretty stressful! I try not to step on the scales (since it's in my office) I fail and do so every day haha - better lay off it and just go with the flow.
