congrats on team !!!

Afm: I just found out today that my neighbour couldnt find out her gender at the 20 week scan...they gave her another one at 30 weeks and she was able to see so I may still yet get to know!!
I'm finding i'm really tired this week... Oh is on a new working schedule where he starts work at 1am..I'm having a hard time adjusting to this..I'm finding that i can't fall asleep when I go to bed knowing that his alarm is going to go off at 11... So I dont normally fall asleep until midnight then up by 5:30..hopefully i adjust soon

Hi Ladies!

Popping by to catch up on all your posts. I feel like I've been gone for years!!! Thanks for your well wishes. We're all well…just not sure what state our shore house is in as they are still not letting anyone on the island. We've had our power back since Friday night and slowly life has gotten back on track. It's been a super busy week cause we head out for our babymoon on Friday and I've been trying to get as much done as I can before we leave. Plus, today is DH's birthday and we put a bid on a house this week - busy, busy, busy But exciting!

anna - awesome bump! totally legit preggo mama. I still don't quite feel pregnant at all times…sometimes I just feel like a chub.

boxxey - congrats on team

lou - great photo! my DH has no patience to wait for kicks. I tell him I felt one and put his hand on my tummy and after 3 sec he starts futsing, moving his hand around and saying he feels nothing! He felt 2 so far at least. Congrats to your DH!

skeet - super cute bump pics! love the progression. how does a breech baby feel? I'm not sure how mine is sitting…sorry about the layoff

MissPiggy - my kicks are pretty low down in my lower left side. Is that where yours are too? It feels weird when they're there…

How do you all know that baby is jumping on your bladder?? I mean there are times when I go pee and about 10 minutes later I feel like I'm going to pee my pants. But I don't feel actual pressure or kicks on my bladder…is it painful? Lovin' all the belly button talk! So funny the things we end up chatting about Mine is definitely less shallow but I'm hoping it doesn't pop cause it would freak me out I think

rose - your bump looks just like mine! And we're carrying different genders…total evidence that the whole carrying high or low thing is not so true!! And we had Indian takeaway tonight too! We're having a big snow storm so we decided to eat in. YUM!

Athena - I didn't feel movements until closer to 21 weeks…and only now I'm feeling real kicks. So don't worry, it will come

Sorry for the long post but I'm finally all caught up!

 

[AmyB1978]

My husband got to feel the baby kick for the first time tonight!!!

Here is my bumpy,

 

[anna1986]

Great bump sharnw

 

[rose.]

Glad you're all safe mrs chezek. You're right, the wives tales don't always add up. My Indian was yummy, hope yours was too!

Lovely bumps ladies

 

[baby_maybe]

Glad you're ok Mrs C, lovely to hear from you. I know when baby is kicking my bladder because I can feel it on the inside, it's really hard to explain, but I definitely know when it's happening. It seem to be more likely when I have a quite full bladder and he's trying to get it out of the way

Thats cool AmyB, my DH has felt bub a few times now, but he has to be in the right position to feel it from the outside!

Lovely bump Sharnw

rose I've given up on the old wives tales too and come to the conclusion they all mean nothing and you get what you get

AFM - Was feeling really achy yesterday, but seems to be a bit better this morning. Was mainly my hips and the tops of my legs and I panicked and thought spd might be on the way. Thankfully I think it's not now

 

[skeet9924]

Chez- I can tell my baby us breech because the only kicks I feel are directly above my pubic area . That's the only area I ever feel any movement.. I don't know if it feels any different other then I'm not feeling movement towards any of the sides.. It's all straight up and down in line with my belly button.. My baby is facing my back as well so I do get the odd stronger kick most of it is settle. As for the kicking in the bladder ( or sitting on it as my lo likes to do.. The kick you can feel quick movement down there and add increase feeling of going pee.. When my lo sits on it I know for sure because I get a lot of pressure and it hurts .. During these times if I sneeze or cough I actually pee myself a little

 

[skeet9924]

Lovely bump sharn!!

 

[rose.]

I felt my first kick from outside today just gotta catch one while my husbands around, easier said than done as he stops kicking when you put your hands on my belly!

 

[baby_maybe]

My DH had managed to catch a few on the outside now

 

[baby_bray]

My hubby's been able to catch kicks, here and there. We were working in the nursery and everytime he fired up the drill she'd move around. So I had him stop and stand behind me with his hand on my belly and we revved up the drill next to my belly and she bounced around It brought such a cute smile to his face

Hi all. Haven't been on here for a few days so had a bit to read. Congrats on those who have found out what team they are on and love the bump photos!

My baby is normally very quiet in the morning but this morning baby was having some sort of dance party in there!

Normally I get up and leave my husband fast asleep until it is his turn to get up. This morning we were both awake and just lying there chatting. I had my hand resting on my tummy as usual and there was loads of movement! My husband rested his hand there and I'm not sure if baby was rolling around or kicking or both but we got to feel a lot! I am wondering if it was reacting to our voices. Normally I chill out in the front room with the tv on or I'm in the bedroom with my husband asleep but today we were both just chatting about things.

I freaked out earlier this week. A friend emailed me and mentioned that I had 4 months left at work. I corrected her to say actually I'm due in less than 4 months and planning on leaving work in 3 months and 1 week if I can last that long. Putting that in writing was a bit scary!

Got my next midwife appointment next Tuesday. I'm sure she said 25 weeks for my next but the sonographer said 24 so I'm going on Tuesday when I'll be a few days short of 25 weeks! Sorry for the long post

 

[Mrs. AJ]

Hey ladies, I took this picture a few days ago but forgot to post. My bump at 21w 3d.

 

[skeet9924]

lovely bump!!

I havent felt any kicks from the outside...all the kicks are so low and because the baby is facing my back it doesnt kick towards the outside of my stomach yet

 

[Stelly]

Very cute bump Mrs. AJ!

Skeet- I get what you mean, my guy hangs out in breech or transverse (his little head likes to stay wedged in my right side lol) and hoooooly cow, when he sits on my bladder. I'm so afraid I'm going to sneeze when I'm at the store and have a huge problem!! So far its only happened at home!

 

[skeet9924]

Stelly- me too.. I've been lucky its only been at home.. I currently carry extra underwear on me just in case.. I've been considering wearing panty liners when I go out, but they've always irritated my skin so the thought of wearing them every day is not good
