plus size and pregnant !

[lovelymiss]

Ladies! It's been quiet on here. I don't get on BnB much, but I love hearing from you all.

How are things going? Bump pics?? Do share!

 

[lovelymiss]

As for me, had a 3D scan to see Baby Leo. :heart:

I was just about 25 weeks. I go again around 32 weeks. Can't wait to see how much he changes.

Here are a few of my favorites. He has his mama's chubby cheeks! I love my cheeks so I'm happy about that. My (skinny!!) sister has the same cheeks, but she hates them. I get complimented on my cheekbones a lot LOL.

Aww! He's beautiful. That's so great they can do 3d pics nowadays. We probably won't get one unless they offer it. Things are going well here. We find out the gender on December 20th so 15 more days! We would have found out next Friday, but they rescheduled our appointment I'm getting a bump, but still don't know for sure if what I am feeling is the baby. It probably is, but I can't wait to know for sure!

I attached my 18 week pics from Tuesday

ltrip- Sorry they rescheduled!! Ugh. That stinks. Any gender vibes? 15 days is going to go by before you know it! That is a lovely bump! My guess is you're feeling baby at least some of the time. Sooo exciting!!

Thanks! Time has gone by slow so far, so I really hope the 15 days will go by fast. I kind of think it MIGHT be a boy and so does everyone else, but I really don't have any gut feelings either way if that makes sense. I just think it might be a boy because OH only has a brother, he is the manliest man I know (testosterone galore!), and if the Shettles method has any truth to it, it would also lean towards a boy. So, we shall see! I will be happy with a boy or a girl of course!

Did you originally have a gut instinct? If so, was it correct? Did you want a boy or a girl?

We always wanted a boy first, but I had some serious girl vibes. I thought for sure pink balloons would fly out of the box (we did a gender reveal with my family), but when they were blue I was in shock! LOL. We were thrilled and would have been either way.

As for time, I feel like after found out the gender time went by pretty quick. I figure with the holiday rush, maybe these 15 days will fly by for you. I hope they do!! Any name ideas (if you're up for sharing)??

LOL. I think part of that is trying to be mentally prepared for one or the other. OH is sure it is a boy, but I am always trying to prepare him just in case it is a girl. I even had a dream the other night that it was a girl, but I think it's just because I think about it so much. I really don't want to think either way for sure because I don't want to be shocked. LOL.

Yes. We have boy and girl names picked out but we dont' have a middle name for a girl yet. We might just go with Beth since it's my middle name.

Boy=Jaxon Wayne Girl= Kiyah

Wayne is OH's middle name so that's the reasoning behind that.

I like both those names....lovely miss, looking awesome, and your boy is too too cute!

I'm jealous of how many u/s u are getting! I wont see this one again until she's here. In Canada, unless your high risk or being monitored for something u get the at most 3 last one being the 20 week anatomy scan.

Our baby's name is Kaliyah Danielle...couldnt remember if I had posted that before in this thread...
Here is a bump pic...29 weeks take this monday (well 28 + 6) front & side shots, and one of me & my husband at our baby shower last weekend...

 

[ltrip84]

tryn4- You are beautiful!

 

[Whitesoxfan41]

Fabulous bump iTrip! I'm sorry you have to wait, that would be tortuous!

What a GORGEOUS little boy Lovelymiss! the cheeks!

I~you're just a hottie. . .such a brat. (She has all the cute men after her ladies!)

Doing okay here. . .diagnosed with GD. . .just found out an hour ago that I've got to go on meds. I DO get to have another ultrasound at 33 weeks because of this, which I'm anxious for since we haven't seen baby J since 20 weeks. YAY! I also will probably be induced a couple weeks early so I should be having a January babe now.

 

[lovelymiss]

tryn- You're looking beautiful! We bought an elective 3-D scan package, so that's why we got those extra two.

ltrip- LOVE the names!!

whitesox- Sorry about the GD diagnosis, but yay for seeing your little one an extra time. Hope you're able to manage GD okay.

 

[tryn4]

Lmao Kellie! Not as hot as u SHUGGA MOMMA!

Thx ladies!

 

[donnarobinson]

Hi girls, u all look fab
I'm 28+2 now. Am meausring 2 weeks ahead tho so 30 weeks I was always meauring 2 weeks ahead with my son as well.

I've got to have the gtt test on monday due to having glucose ++ in my urine .

Here's some bump pics x

 

[Whitesoxfan41]

Love the bump! You look great! Good luck with the GTT. Not a fun one.

 

[donnarobinson]

Thanks hun I no not looking 4ward 2 it . X

 

[Mummafrog]

Oh my god such beautiful bumps and beautiful ladies! I'm in awe I can't wait to look like yoou all
I'm starting to love being pregnant all the more as I leave the first tri and my symptoms are calming down and I feel reassured that everything is going well so far after the scan.
Starting to feel my little bumpkin kick and wriggle, it's very subtle but the feeling can't be caused by anything else hehehe

Also I found out that between 8 and 14 weeks I actually lost about half a stone, probably from eating less and really trying to avoid sugar at the moment (it helps that I've gone off it haha). So that was a nice surprise

 

[Whitesoxfan41]

I'm so glad you're feeling better! The time seriously flies, although it doesn't seem it. I say that as I'm getting big and crabby and feel like time is dragging a bit again.

I had to go on the GD diet a couple weeks ago and have lost 6lbs, puts me back to about 3 pounds over my starting weight. At this point I'm thinking that if nothing else, I'll weigh less after the baby comes than when I started! Still overweight, LOL but better than being even MORE behind.

 

[tryn4]

get outta here skinny showoff @ Kellie

 

[Whitesoxfan41]

I'm pretty sure I'm not even plus sized anymore.

Who decides what plus sized is? The fashion industry? SMH. LOL!

 

[tryn4]

Your like minus sized. or equal yea who decides????
