Shradha- I know, there is always something to worry about, huh? I was the same way. I felt like if it wasn't one thing, it was another. And unfortunately with kids, it never ends. Constantly worrying about everything, every little ailment (in addition to stuff that goes on with myself) so it gets very overwhelming. I think part of being a parent is learning to let go... well, I know that's the case for me. I just haven't quite learned it yet... but it's a process. Re: sleeping, I started sleeping on my side quite early on, just because I could feel my little bump already so stomach sleeping was out, and I was never a back sleeper anyway. And as you get farther along, back sleeping is out too, so that only leaves side. Do you have one of those body/pregnancy pillows for support? It's a must for side sleeping in my opinion... if not, you can put a pillow between your legs and one you can cuddle onto or place near your belly for support.
Ashley- Aside from not hearing the HB, are you feeling different at all? I'm sure everything is fine although I know it's hard not to worry about it, given the past situation. But I truly think our instincts know... if you feel something is not right, listen to it and get checked out... but it sounds like, deep down, you know that everything is ok. I think the fear of your last m/c is powerful and tends to clouds your instinct. Those dopplers though-- as much as they are reassuring, they can end up just creating more doubt when you can't find the HB yourself.
I'm feeling still "pregnant", although MS comes and goes, and so far, when it "comes" it's usually only bad for about five minutes and than it goes away. Today I went to subway for lunch, and for some reason when I requested mayo on my sandwich, I started to gag. Instantly the place felt really warm (it's been windy and cool outside today...my guess the warmth is from their oven) so when he was like "did you ask for Mayo?" I just waved my hand like "never mind" LOL. But once I went to pay I felt fine. Strange how it can hit me like a ton of bricks for a moment and than go away.
I was at the mall after, and had an embarrassing moment. As I was walking out of the store, I passed an employee and as I did, within a snap I let out a huge, smelly fart as I passed her. She ran away laughing, I pretended not to notice. LOL
I have been VERY, VERY gassy lately.
If anyone lives near a Toys R Us, and need toys for a birthday or if you want to start Christmas shopping early if you celebrate Christmas, they are having a HUGE clearance sale. I was able to get all my kids birthday gifts (multiple ones!) for about $70.00. We are not rich, so to pay about $23.00 per kid for their birthday was a great deal. I was able to get board games for $2.00, originally $19.00! A game for $5.00, DVDs for $5.00/each, etc... Walked away feeling good - that now I don't have to "think" or "worry" about getting birthday gifts. My youngest birthday is coming up soon here. He will be turning 4! Than my other two are both November babies, and they will be 8 and 6.
I seriously have forgone my jeans now. I can still squeeze into them if I don't button them and just wear a longer shirt, but they are tight and uncomfortable. I'm not "big" enough for maternity really, but i'm too thick-in-the-middle for my regular pants AND some of my shirts are starting to become too short. Went to Motherhood Maternity today and took advantage of their buy one, get one free shirts. Hate spending money we don't have, but I've gotten so crabby because my clothing feels uncomfortable, so it was almost an evil necessity.
Today is dark, cloudy, windy, 70 degrees (but feels more like 63 degrees) and I LOVE IT! I makes me less crabby!! The Utah heat kills me, I get moody, crabby, sick, etc (when pregnant). I wish it would stay like this until winter. But nevertheless, this is a one-day thing. *sigh* I can't wait for fall! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE fall. I love the cooler weather (I HATE WINTER!!!), pumpkin pie, cinnamon scented candles, being completely comfortable in jeans and long sleeve shirt, Apple cider, School pictures for the kids...
The only thing I do miss though, is in Utah there isn't as much "color changes" as there is in the Midwestern (especially Minnesota state) or New England areas of the USA.
Re: the low lying placenta. Mine is low this time also but doc reassured me that the placenta also "moves" as it were, in an upward direction as your pregnancy progresses. What happens is the uterus expands and grows, yet the placenta cllings to the same portion of uterine wall- during the process of growing and stretching the placenta ends up much higher than it initially was
Lol. It's so cool to hear you talk about feedings now when it's been "the bump" for so long
But if we give th ekids anything sweet it is natural. Which reminds me, choclolate milk lovers- Nesquick makes a corn-syrup-free chocolate syrup for milk and ice cream
Oh, and yes, we start brushing as soon as baby's first tooth pops out. They sell little finger pad style brushes with baby tooth paste
Hopefully soon. Getting a wee bit paranoid 
because this time (gestation wise) in January is when whatever caused my miscarriage started to form (they are pretty sure it was a blood clot in the umbilical cord and my placenta was starting to detach).
