June jewels 2018!!!!

Oh no, I hope you feel better soon allie. I'm worried about getting a fever too.
I've had my flu jab but I've caught my daughters cold she's had over Christmas so I've got a sore throat and I ache (though a bit of that may be the pilates I did yesterday)
I don't think it lasts too long so I'll have some honey and lemon drink and stay indoors.

I had a cold for 3 weeks and it turned to sinesitus it went away a week before Christmas thankfully xx

Hey ladies, I had an impromptu ultrasound with my OB yesterday because they had trouble finding the heartbeat with the doppler, and she said she thinks baby is a boy. At 13+4 weeks, how accurate do you think it is? I'll admit, we were really hoping for a girl this time.

Will you guys be finding out the gender for sure?? Sorry if I'm being nosy I've just been thinking about it

 

[Unexpected212]

I'm eighteen weeks with my fourth and not really feeling much yet, I felt a few kicks christmas eve but not much since, baby is fine on doppler so not too worried i remember they are really sporadic at this point

Hope everyone had a wonderful christmas

I’m so glad to hear this! I’m 18w now too and still not feeling much, if anything, so I’ve been a lititle concerned. I think there’s a wide range though so no reason to think there’s anything wrong.

Hi! I’m B and I am due June 3rd! I have been looking for other mamas to connect with and a mom from this group commented on one of my posts and told me to join here. So here I am! �� I have 2 kids, age 3.5 and almost 2. Super nervous about having 3 ��

Hi mrsgax, welcome. I'm going from one to two children and I find it scary! I guess it's always nerve wrecking going into the unknown but exciting too.

Does anyone else have low blood pressure. Last time I got checked it was 100/50. I didn't know what that meant so decided to be nosey on the Internet. I've been told it's low before but nothing to worry about. I'm just curious.

Hi mrsgax:wave:, welcome. I'm going from three to four children and I'm nervous as I found two to three quite tough. Mine will be seven, four and two when this baby arrives.

For sure! We were going to pay and do any early ultrasound at a place nearby, but because the OB seemed pretty confident in her boy guess, we decided to save our money and wait for the anatomy scan, which will be in about 3 and half weeks. I'm prepared for it to be a boy, by I'll admit I'm still holding on to a tiny bit of hope that it might be a girl after all.

Awh exciting! It could be a girl still, swollen girl parts can look like boy parts that early on. Thats why most places won't even try until 16 weeks. I know if it's a boy you will be happy but I hope you get your girl

 

[Unexpected212]

I'm going from 3 to 4 as well and I'm so scared. I find three tough to be honest especially as they are all so young, so this is gonna be crazy. I'm excited but it's gonna be hard work.

Thank you! 1-2 was hard for me... but it got easier!

I had have had low blood pressure this pregnancy, which is surprising as I was high with my first and normal/high with my 2nd. I’ve been feeling super tired though. Have you been tired?

Wow! Give me all of your tips cause I’m terrified lol. Mine will be 4 and 2.5 when the baby comes. Are you a patient person? I’m not at all I really try to be, but it’s suoer hard... my 3 year old is extremely spirited and my almost 2 year is just that... almost 2! And she’s super attached to me like I can’t put her down or she screams. I really don’t know how I will handle 3

 

[PG5K]

I have definitely been tired. I was all the way through my first pregnancy too. I kept thinking "when am I getting this energy boost they keep talking about?"
I'm also very pale atm, even with olive skin which I worried was anemia but I'm fine with that.

I'm going to try and increase my exercise a little just to give myself a boost (and feel less guilty eating Christmas chocolate)

 

[Spiffynoodles]

I'm on #5, so here's my two cents. I found going from 2 to 3 to be easier than going from 1 to 2. By the time you have three, you already know how to juggle the needs of more than one kid, you already have a routine, and you're more confident in your skills as a mother. I'm not saying it's easy, but after two, each subsequent kid has been easier.

Unexpected212, mine are similar ages to yours!

 

[PG5K]

Ugh, I've just weighed myself and now I'm worrying. I've put on 13lb since getting pregnant.
I have overeaten over Christmas so I'm hoping it's just that.
My clothes still fit that I was in before pregnancy except for my t-shirts as my boobs have gone up two sizes already.
I really wanted to try and not put on as much weight this pregnancy.

I don't think that's bad. That's about what I have gained. For me.. I try and stay no more than the week I'm in. So if I'm 18 weeks ~ I don't want to have gained more than 18 lbs.

 

[topazicatzbet]

I ve only gained 2lb so far. It did help that I lost 5lb in 1st tri due to nausea and a sickness bug.

 

[Allie84]

That's normal! I think 13 lbs is probably just about perfect for nearly halfway through. I WISH I had gained something. I'm so worried about IUGR and I am now at my pre-pregnancy weight after losing near 10 in 1st tri.....so I guess I HAVE gained....but just evened out.

 

[fxmummyduck]

I’ve put on 5lbs so far, guessing being so sick meant I’d lost some before then starting to gain.
