*October Bumpkins*2014* 43 Babies Born!

After all my baby dreams this weekend I'm just aching to hold my babes!!!!

I'm so jealous of all of you who can feel movements already! Can't wait! Hopefully in a few more weeks!

Oh I bet when you start feeling movement it'll be crazy with twins! That must be an awesome experience to have two kicking inside of you :)
Worth the wait honey
 
When is the official start of the second trimester? I keep reading different things…some say beginning of week 13 and some say end of week 13 beginning of week 14. And when does third tri start?

Woo hoo for a peach newlywed!

I'm the US it is 13 weeks and I think everywhere else is 14 weeks.

I have a doctors appointment today! I haven't seen baby since 10 weeks so hopefully everything is okay in there! While I haven't put on weight my pants have suddenly gotten too tight. And by suddenly I do mean within a matter of days. So I am taking that as a sign that baby is okay in there! Hopefully I can get some ultrasound pictures today as well!
 
Had my dating scan today. My due date is now 27th October not 25th October although I'm still confused because that'd mean I got a BFP at 7dpo and also when the measured the baby the ultrasound said 12w1d next to the measurements but when she read 55.5mm as CRL to the woman at the computer she confirmed it was in date with my last scan and my notes read 12w0d exactly :shrug:
anyway, baby was perfect with two arms, hands, legs, feet and very wriggly! jumping around from sitting up to laying down so that is the main thing :)

Here's a pic of baby today.

Aww, lovely scans :)

I just realised, Yo-yo, I never asked for my date to be changed on this thread - please can it be October 5th now, instead of 7th? :flower:

oo exciting your next scan isnt too far away :)
And dw you will get plenty of movement soon!! Hehe
I did find later on for me (it may be different for others) there was alot less movement than a singleton because theres barely any room but 18 - 28 weeks were a blast, they moved so much it was amazing :p

funny about the triplet thing, It was my biggest fear during the pregnancy. 3 would be a wonderful gift but I honestly don't know how triplet mummas do it they are truly amazing!
 
Yoyo my date is Oct 5th also :) I think I'm still down for the 1st.

Having terrible nightmares. Last night I was fighting zombies, so not cool. What was even stinker was i woke up 3 times and it took ages to get back to sleep and when i did my dream just picked up where it left off each time haha.
Does anyone else get vivid dreams while pregnant?
 
October 5 is such an awesome day to have a baby! I'm totally biased, as that's my birthday, but whatever!

So, I had an appointment today with my doctor, I didn't get to see my baby but she did let me hear the heart beat with the doppler. I got my 20 week scan appointment for May 27th. But my husband and I are totally going to do the early scan for gender.

And being totally honest here, I smoked pot before finding out I was pregnant (absolutely none since!) and I obviously tested positive for it in my urine. As well as being completely honest on the form I turned in about substances I've used. Thanks to that I got a huge lecture with a drug counselor through my insurance that pretty much told me over and over again how terrible drugs, smoking and alcohol could be to a baby. I just spent an hour and a half repeating myself that I haven't touched it since I found out I was pregnant. That I don't drink, and didn't drink regularly before I found out I was pregnant. But again since forms ask about family history for alcohol and my family history has a bit of alcohol abuse, I was also harassed about that quite a bit.

It was very annoying.
 
Jeez that sucks. I get that they have liars at times but not EVERYONE is like that! This is WHY people lie is they went through this.
 
Wow so many great scans.

For those having vivid dreams, agh they are so bad now. Last night my husband and I had to try to cross an alligator infested river and he kept taking the "boat" which was the top of a kids board game. So weird, but woke up apparently questioning him why he wouldn't give his pregnant wife the boat. He was so confused. So weird! Was then up from 4am till when my alarm went off at 5:30. :wacko:

Hoping to get some good sleep tonight. Next doctors appt on May 1st but next ultrasound 2 weeks after that which seems so far away...
 
Hey ladies,

Just read through all the posts...not going to remember who wrote what, but going to respond to some.

Yes, fellow sicky - I'm still vomiting! With meds it's only a few times a day, but definitely can't stop meds yet or I'll be back for another fluid IV! It's the worst. I just want it to stop! Got way better by 16 weeks and gone by 20 last time, so crossing fingers but this time has been totally different.

OHs definitely do not understand the level of tiredness! They can be fantastic husbands and great people, but they just don't get it. I think the infant and toddler years are just a time of trying to survive for moms - yes, there are a million amazing, incredible moments, but it's HARD! And the male experience is just totally different.

Cramping and pulling and even shooting pains are usually just your uterus stretching. They can be scary, but unless it's super intense, prolonged pain don't worry. Also, if a spot is sore it might be that the baby is kicking that spot repeatedly and it's kind of bruised...so said my doc last time!

I'm a little nervous - after feeling Babbert kicking a bit at 13 weeks I haven't felt him/her in about a week...I'm hoping s/he just turned and is kicking in a direction I can't feel, but I'll feel a lot better after hearing the heartbeat at my fri appt!

We're staying team yellow, but it's funny - with my junebug a group it was almost all girls, and this is looking like a boy-heavy group! Hoping there's something to that :)

I get super vivid dreams. Some are normal, but vivid. Some are super weird. Supposedly it's normal? I also had really bad insomnia first tri last time, but this time I'm on meds that make me drowsy at night, so think that's curbed. Can't wait to stop taking them though!

Have a good night, everyone!
