Lil' October Pumpkins 2013

Feeling lots of movements too and DH has felt quite a few kicks too now which is nice.

I've put a lot of weight on! Gone from 9st 7lb to 11st 1lb, eek! I've not got any fat though, it's all on bump so hoping it comes off quick after baby is born.

I really need to start doing my pelvic floor exercises, was desperate for the loo the other night and sneezed, and just had no control over my bladder! Very embarrassing, luckily got to the loo before it was too bad but really panicked me, awful to just have no control like that. Has anyone else had anything like this?!
 
before i got pregnant with my daughter, i was 165 lbs (5'8) and was 198.9 lbs when I delivered my daughter... and i lost all of the weight plus more, i was at 137 lbs when i got pregnant with this one... and i gained all of the weight back so i am around 175 lbs now :nope: :haha: i blame all of the junk and the snacking! but i'm not worried... if i can do it last time, I can do it this next time. :thumbup:

and broodymars, yep, i pee myself all the time when i sneeze or vomit. the only solution i had was really being conscious of when the last time i peed was and i make an attempt to pee as often as i can i.e. pee before leaving the restaurant even if i don't feel like peeing. it helps when i cross my legs to sneeze, seems to help hold it more :haha:
 
broodymars and ptr i do this too.

2 pregnancies and 2 births have left me with a prolapsed bladder, I saw a surgeon about it and he said that the only way to fix it is from lots of kegels but mainly surgery. He did say don't bother having the surgery until you are finished babies.
 
that sucks, goddess! yeah i agree, def don't bother to get it fixed until you're done having babies. another bnb buddy i have on here also has prolapse and isn't able to get it fixed until after she has her 3rd (and last).. :nope: the things we go through to have kids, huh!?
 
Oh i do too ALL THE TIME...... not fun but same as goddess, i went and saw a Dr. and they said there is no point in having surgery until i am done having babies.
 
As far as movements go, I am having some days where I feel her a lot and some days hardly at all still. I still only feel her when I am sitting or still. When is it normal to feel them more and is it a concern when you don't feel them move in a day?

Weight loss...I am in!! I was overweight when I got pregnant :( I was 185 and I am 5'5. I am now 194. 185 is by FAR my heaviest. I was 148 three years ago and that was my biggest, then I worked out and went crazy with food (probably not healthy) and got down to 125 which was my lowest.....THEN I got married, lol and the pounds have slowly but steadily come on. I don't feel healthy though and I want to have the healthy feeling again from when I was about 135 pounds. I am in for a 30 shred! Anyone have one in mind?
 
Also, I am feeling movement really low still, where is everyone feeling their movement? I know the baby is higher, but I only feel her low.

I am the same way with the movements. I can go 1-2 days with no (or very little) movement and then have days where I feel him moving for a long period of time. My doctor said the movements should become more consistent around 25 weeks and not to even start counting kicks until the 3rd trimester. So I think we are okay going a day or more without feeling movements. Even though my doctor was very reassuring, I still worry about it- lol.

I'm feeling movements pretty low, about a couple inches below my belly button I'd say. Baby does have a habit of kicking something, I haven't quite figured out what yet. It doesn't feel like my bladder, but it's really uncomfortable when it happens.
 
i still feel most kicks just above my pelvic area but sometimes she kicks near my belly button x
 
Mainly lower movement for me too. Occasionally at belly button.
 
my kicks/movements are very low.
I've also peed myself twice during this pregnancy. Doctor said it's probably my previous tears, and could opt for surgery after this baby, if i'm sure it's going to be the last. But i think i'll pass on that.
 
So earlier this week I got an email update from what to expect when you're expecting about leg cramp. I didn't think anything of it because I havnt had any. Well I be damned if they didn't start last night while sleeping. Holly shit they hurt! Have you had this yet???
 
My kicks are all right at belly button level on either side. OH finally felt her for a while last night! I made him rub my tummy since I was having a lot of stretchy ows. She was kicking a ton and I guess she was pushing at his hand pretty hard at one point. :-)

I haven't had leg cramps yet, but I feel like I've pulled a ligament or something on my right side that feels like a charlie horse sometimes. However, I HATE sneezing. Everytime I sneeze, I either dribble a little bit or I burst a blood vessel in my nose and spray blood.

After more shitty work incidents, I've decided to find a new job now and hope and pray they'll keep me on after maternity leave or at least keep me part-time.

As a whole, I'm feeling much better. I'm not feeling so sick, and my emotions are much more stable.
 
I'm feeling either kicks in the bladder or kicks from the outside next to my b.button level....love it!!!!
 
Good luck girlinboots for the job hunt.

I feel kicks everywhere but mainly low down.
