So cute. My boys both had a dream about the babies this week. The younget dreamt that he was asleep and was woken up by a cry. When he opened hid eyes there was a babie in his bed. I had given birth to the twins during the night.
The other dreamt also I had given birth but they werent two but four!!

Yesterday both DH and my older son felt the babies kick

 

[DobbyForever]

Pretty, I love it!!! I have to say, I'm scared of dolls because my mom let me watch Chucky as a kid. Best parenting move ever, Mom. Letting your 4 year old watch it. She said it was a movie about dolls how bad could it be r_r Almost as bad as her buying The Lion King for us right after my dad died as a way to cheer us up. Yeeeeeah good job mom So I'm not gonna lie I'm quite happy I'm having a boy and (being into stereotypes) we will be a doll free household.

Catalyst that is so cute!!! I love it! So cute the boys are dreaming about it and that DS got to feel the kicks, too!

Oh my! I thought my mom was the only one who make this mistake. We never celebrate Halloween at home so my mom let us picked an horror movie instead and the majority of movies the rest of the year was horror movie too. Also my big brother took advantage of this and make me panic at home with his pranks. So I grew up terrorized of almost everything (including dolls)

However, my LO has a couple of stuffed animals no dolls yet.

 

[DobbyForever]

Haha I should tell my mom that. When she had my brothers she realized maybe she should have done things differently for the first two, but we turned out alright so oh well. You know... irrational doll phobia aside. The adults in our family love terrorizing us r_r But I don't know why stuffed animals do not freak me out as much.

 

[second.time]

Ha, I have a terrible phobia of sharks -- really anything that lives underwater -- because my mom let me be in the room when Jaws was playing. I can't swim because I grew up so terrified of the water.

My son has a few dolls. He's pretty nurturing to them and his stuffed animals when he's in the mood. It's also helpful for role play -- sometimes he makes his dolls have conflicts, like saying they're arguing, and we can use it as a chance to help him learn how to deal with playmates. Hopefully it's good practice for the new baby!

That's a cute purple-haired doll, pretty!

 

[PrettyInInk42]

I can see regular plastic and porcelain dolls being pretty scary, but this a soft plush one, so I'm not too worried. lol.

My mom wouldn't let me watch anything I wasn't supposed to (based on the rating) cuz she knew I had an overactive imagination. Meanwhile, I know a mom that took her 6yo son to see Jurassic Park in theatres, when it's rated PG-13. lol

And thanks, second. It was $5 at WalMart, so I thought "why not?". They had one with pink hair as well, but I think I'll be switching my hair to purple by the time the baby comes. I won't have time to maintain 2 colours. lol

Thanks Weebles. Glad everything is okay with your baby girl.
I think I know that everything will be fine, but at the same time I can't seem to stay off of Google looking things up.

 

[Aphy]

Weebles, so so happy for you that all is well! Now you can focus on enjoying this pregnancy

Can't remember who has the sinus infections but I hope it subsides soon! I have congestion every evening but other than being irritating, it doesn't affect me too badly

Love the doll Pretty! And I am sure baba is going to love it too

thexfadingpat, I dont have any experience so can't give any clarity but just wanted to say I will keep my fx that your next scan gives you the all clear

Sorry if I missed anyone, memory not so great...

Afm, ms has mostly disappeared finally. Still get a little nausea's in the evenings etc but I haven't had to vomit since Sunday. I thought I felt my first kick on sunday when I was pushing down hard on my uterus but nothing since so now I'm doubting whether it was even that. Next scan is on wednesday next week at 20weeks so I hope that I will get some needed reassurance that all is well then

My mum was realy young (well they both were, 18 and 21) And Im 5 years older than my brother, 11 years older than my younger brother. My dad worked alot when I was a kid, almost never took vacation and he was high ranking on a fishing boat (still is, just works much less) so he was seldom home. So mum was alone alot during the evenings and I guess that is why she let me stay up sometimes and watch tv with her. And not age aprobriet stuff. Not much of horror things but still. If there was something what she thought was going to happen and was not for me to see she said close your yes or hold your hends before your eyes haha. I do remember having nightmare now and then but nothing that lasted or had lasting impression on me.

Dobby - my dad is like the most steryotype man ever. He is 53 and should be born like 100 years ago and not now haha. He uses tecnology and all that, but can so be without it. He likes to hunt and hunts all sorts of game, he works on a fishing boat and has done so all his adult life. When he was a kid he was fishing in small streams in the small town he lived in, and once all the birthdayguests were there and not him, he had forgotten the party and was fishing!! He likes farm stuff, goes to help his relatives that live on a farm and also a friend he has that has a farm. He is not a good dresser, more casual than casual haha, very outdoorsy but old style, joggings and hiking. He hikes alot, goes to the next fjords or top of mountains just for fun. He stays out in a sleeping bag watching out for foxes to hunt. He does garden work, grows vegetables, potatos and stuff.

But, as a boy he had a doll boydoll (had penis haha) and was very fond of it. Just saying

Mum is his opposite, she likes to shop (didnt do much of it when I was a kid but bow their live is much better) and dresses nice, leggings and cute dresses always, make up on, hair nicely done, never over the top always classy. But she did lot of boyish stuff as a girl, although she was very clean about it haha but she had to go often to the hospital to get stitches or some bandages hahaha.

Aphy I'm so glad your ms is gone I know how much that can suck.

Afm, had my 19 weeks appointment this morning. HB registering between 147 and 152 as they kept getting my hb with peanuts. I lost a pound so I've only gained 7lbs in 19 weeks. I'm so happy about that!! I have to up my zantac to twice a day for heartburn as my doc said we need to get it under control. I woke up at 2am on night last week gasping for air and had a mouth full of stomach acid and she said that was enough for her. If the zantac didn't work I'm too call back and they will prescribe me previcid.. I also was told I can use sutafed for this sinus infection. Feels like my face wants to explode. Thankfully I feel OK otherwise though.

One more week until we find out if this peanut is a boy or girl..

[DobbyForever]

Lol tbh I'm just using the boys have action figures not dolls as an excuse to not have creepy a** dolls in my house

Gagrl omg that is terrifying I am glad your doctor is on it. Congrats on the healthy hb and yay just one week! So many anatomy scans rolling up next week.

 

[Parkep]

So.... After three girls, we finally are getting our boy!!
We still have some tests to come back from the animo (another three weeks) but the intial testing is good!

 

[Aphy]

Congrats Parkep! Happy for you xxx

 

[second.time]

Wonderful, parkep! Congratulations! He's lucky to get so many big sisters.

 

[DobbyForever]

Parkep congrats! I agree having big sisters is awesome. I was the big sister and I am so close to my younger brothers because I helped take care of them as babies.

 

[808malia]

Parkep- Congrats on joining team blue!!!

AFM- My husband and I keep having dreams that we are having a boy, when we were told we are having a girl? Not sure if it means anything... And today I make the half way point in this pregnancy!!! Celebrated by having terrible morning sickness and throwing up like 3 or 4 times, yay...

 

[Maries_s]

Sorry that I never came back yesterday after my Anatomy Scan. I've been having headache for 3 days in a row and feels like migraine. The temporal lobe of my head is pounding and I can barely sleep. I tried to take Tylenol but it only seems to reduce the symptoms for a couple of hours. Also I now have sore throats and runy nose. I feel horrible! I sent a message to my doctor nurse but haven't received any notice from them yet.
Anyway the Anatomy Scan went great. HB 149, baby was kicking a lot so it took ages to measure. And we finally confirmed that we indeed are having a boy.

 

[808malia]

Marie- Congrats on your little boy!!!
