November 2013 Babies!

Soooo haven't been on in like over a week, been swamped at work then by the time I get home I am so tired I just fall into bed. *sigh*
But I read the last ten pages or so and feel that I have sufficiently caught up!:happydance:

First off, for those of you who have your scans set already, so lucky, very happy for you. I don't have a date yet for mine. :nope:
But I am still pretty pumped because I get to see my midwife for my 16 week appointment this Wednesday! Which means I can finally hear my baby's heart beat, haven't heard it since 6 weeks when they dated my pregnancy with an ultrasound. I've been so paranoid and eager to hear that bloody heart beat. for a while I was convinced something was wrong, but I figure I still feel like crap and have symptoms so that must mean everything is all right?

My midwife did say I could schedule my next scan at this appointment so hopefully in about two/three weeks I will know whether its a boy or girl!

I am seriously curious as to how many of you have had a baby and just knew the gender before hand and were correct. Because I swear I feel like this is a little boy, I have no proof but it just seems right. Hes already named and last week I washed all his little clothes that my family has bought so far. My DH asked what I was doing and when I told him he just smiled. He thinks its cute, guess it could be worse.

As for stuff we actually bought for baby we haven't gotten anything ourselves yet. I've tried really hard at that too. But my family is super pumped for this baby as its the first grandbaby for my side and they went crazy and bought clothes/diapers/diaper bag/ and odds and ends. :happydance:
 
I don't have a baby, just the one in my tummy, but If you look back in some far past page, I said I felt my baby was a little boy. I just knew. The ultrasound showed his boy parts and there was no mistaking that. Obviously all is not certain until birth, but he is a little boy.
 
I've never had a baby, but I just feel like I am having a boy too! I will find out soon enough!
 
Great bump Alchemist!

And about feeling the gender....I was dead wrong. :dohh: I thought FOR SURE it was a girl and turns out..its a boy lol. Soooo lets hope it doesnt say too much for mothers intuition :wacko:

Im tired today, like....1st trimester tired. Has anyone else in their second trimester had days like this. Im literally fall down exhausted :sleep: Other than that....not much new, Ill post my 19 week bump tonight, dont laugh at me, Im going to be a whale
 
Nariah - with my first, I was right about gender based purely on my own instinct. With this one, my instinct tells me it's a boy. I've always felt it ever since bfp. And then people would guess boy too. Scan is on the 26th of this month so we'll see how right I am lol.
 
Thanks everybody for the feedback. I just can't explain it, but I feel in my heart and quick possibly my gut(probably just gas though) that this is a boy.

I wish I was far enough along to feel him move, I think I would feel better sense my app. tend to be pretty far apart still. But sadly no movement yet, I know some people say they feel something, but pretty sure all I am feeling is gas. I've always had a sensitive tummy and so feeling bubbles and such is nothing new. Maybe I won't even know hes moving till he kicks my spleen.lol

And Rockinmomtobe I am tired like that almost everyday still. I sleep on average 9-10 hours a night and then take a nap mid day, and most days I just feel drained, you'd swear I was having twins with all this stuff, but there is only one baby in there. :haha:

And don't worry I will probably be a whale too when I post my first bumb pic. I had a bit of a belly before and its getting all pushed around and not so good lookin right now. :shrug:
 
Rockin: I'm exhausted. I pushed it pretty hard this weekend with a bunch of house and yard work. I haven't been sleeping well because I can't get comfortable. I finally convinced my husband to turn on the air last night at like 230 am (its like 90s outside). After that I slept okay but not great. My shoulders hurt from sleeping on my side. If I could sleep, I think I'd feel a little better.
 
I have to sleep with the fan on in order for me to fall asleep. I try to sleep on my left side because they say that is the best side, but it's hard, so I sleep on my right side and end up on my back when I wake up. I'm always tired as well and choose to lay in bed all day on my days off. But today (my day off), I decided to do some shopping. I needed some new bras because my breast just keep growing. I end up going in the maternity store spending way more than what I expected. I try to convince myself that I got a good deal. I bought 2 pairs of work slacks, blue leggings, summer shorts and a bra for a total of $75. What do you guys think?
 
Alone my bras cost 40 dollars. My pants cost 32. So I'd say yes.
 
I knew you would crack! Yay! I'm so excited I get to find out for sure about my nephew! Grant and I want ripley to have a Lucy to play with though ;)

Also my next apointment is the 25th as well!

That sounds incredibly exhausting. And yes sounds like its time for the AC. I'm not sleeping great either, which is unusual. I toss and turn a lot and end up waking up on my back which I know isn't good. Ugh!

Sounds like a great deal. I'm about ready for some new bras, but I hate to buy them. I got rid of so many once I lost weight and my boobs shrank lol. But I can't go without them:haha:

So here's my 19 weeks as promised. I feel like a cow. And it's such a strange feeling now that my stomach doesn't go away like the bloat used to. I think I'm still getting used to being pregnant :wacko:

Awesome! Our scans are within the same week. You ladies better come back to tell us the gender :D

Luckily fir me, I haven't needed to buy new bras. My girls haven't grown much and buying bras gets on my nerves because I never really fit in one perfectly. The cup is either too small or too large that leaves a gap.

Anyway, todays been so under productive. Just stayed at home and watched tv, napped, cooked, and more tv. So tired today for some reason. Tomorrow, I can't just lay in. I've got some grocery shopping to do. And I'm really not looking forward to it simply because I end up buying things that just never gets opened. Like a bag of dried, seasoned mangoes I once bought only because it seemed interesting. I'm a such a curious shopper! Don't know about you ladies! Oh, but my OH is worse. Really bad, curious shopper. He buys useless things that ends up being put in storage.

You look great woman! I have to tell you....you seem concerned about what the scale says but you really do just look pregnant...I would totally not worry about what the scale is saying anymore because as we can all see...it's the baby :)!!!!!!!
