Good luck at the doctor's tomorrow!

I like extended birthdays, it keeps the time between birthdays and Christmas interesting

 

[Arcanegirl]

This is true!

 

[Vickie]

Good luck tomorrow AG!!

 

[Junebug_CJ]

Good luck AC!

Well, I'm officially in second tri now AND I've popped big time. Thank goodness I disclosed the news last week, otherwise everyone would be asking me this week

 

[Vickie]

Congrats on making it to second tri! I'll be there with you in 5 days

I think we need a new bump pic from you

 

[Junebug_CJ]

Tonight, I promise. I looked like this 20 weeks pregnant with Zoë

 

[Vickie]

but you've gained less this time right?

 

[Arcanegirl]

Happy second tri Junebug

 

[Junebug_CJ]

but you've gained less this time right?

Definitely! 4 lbs rather than 10, I'm ahead

 

[Arcanegirl]

I need to get out walking more again or im gonna gain back what ive lost this year

 

[Junebug_CJ]

AG I had gained 40 lbs with Z, and just managed to shed it literally the week I got pregnant It's hard to see the scale go up again, at least I know it's for a good cause, and I'm determined not to gain as much this time around. For my height (5 feet 1 inch), my OB recommends 20-25 lbs

 

[Arcanegirl]

One of my problems before was lack of exercise and im trying to keep that up. Its been a bit lax the past month since moving closer to my work but im still out on my bike for the days I work. Just need to get out for walks the other days!

 

[Junebug_CJ]

Good luck! Been trying to continue to work out 3-4 times per week but haven't in 2 weeks. Will get back on track this week! We could also use this thread to motivate each other

 

[Arcanegirl]

Definatley! I need to get Alex out more aswell so itll be good for both of us.

I felt like when I was about 14 weeks I was huge, compared to how I was with Roo. But then it kinda... vanished again And I've actually lost weight in this pregnancy I can only blame morning sickness and work, I'll probably start gaining more now that I'm back in Uni and have more time for snacking

 

[Junebug_CJ]

OK I'm gonna start using this as my exercise log too!
Just did second trimester with Lindsay Brin for the first time. Loved it!
Still no success RE: constipation. I'm so bloated right now and bump is probably mostly backed up plumbing. I'm HUGE!!! Will try to post a bump pic later!

Congrats on second tri junebug!!

I have been told to keep my weight gain to 25 lbs this time too. Not difficult so far since I have lost weight, 2 -5 lbs under pre pregnancy weight. MS has been WAY worse with DS.

went home at lunch and puked today. Colds and MS don't mix. Coughing makes me gag.

Ended up taking a diclectin out of desperation. My MS is getting worse than ever and I want to nip this in the bud before it turns into hypermesis like my sister's did in second tri. Of course the diclectin knocked me out and I slept for 3 hrs and could have slept more except I had to get up and make supper.

ugh I feel ill.

 

[Vickie]

Glad you got your workout in Chantal

Snuggle I'm so sorry that the MS is still hitting you so hard I wish I had some suggestions

 

[Junebug_CJ]

Sorry you're so sick snuggle I wish the diclectin didn't give you side effects like that I truly hope that second tri brings massive improvements in this domain for you!!! You'll be starting second tri tomorrow!!!

Here is my bump pic...
