September Snugglers 2016

Live, YAY I'm so happy for you! :D and, Desiree yay!

Moo, that room is soooooo cute. I feel inspired by all the nursery talk. I might start picking colors soon. All I have for furniture so far is a cosleeper and an old rocking chair that's been handed down in the family. But, I want a dresser and a couple other pieces of furniture for storage. We have a perfect room in our house, one that's just so tiny I can't imagine it being a regular bedroom. I haven't done a thing yet, but hearing everyone talk about their plans is getting me excited to do more with it. ... and if there's one thing I learned last time, it's that it's never too early to pack the hospital bag. I'll be doing mine super early this time, too.

Campn, as to your potential houseguests saying such a thing, I can hardly believe they'd actually say that! How rude! I have kind of an inappropriate sense of humor, so if anyone ever said that to me, I'd probably reply with a totally straight face "actually the whole reason we're having another kid is because we didn't want you visiting anymore" :haha: Love the announcement, how cute!

ginge I remember how uncomfortable that was. What I'm having trouble remembering is what I did last time for relief. I can't remember... I think maybe I put the cream on them I'd gotten to avoid stretch marks on the belly and that gave some relief. It's a horrible place to be itchy!

Today in honor of the holiday, I wore a pastel colored shirt and told my MIL that I looked like an easter egg. Since she hadn't seen me for a while she was very surprised I was showing this much already, so her reaction to seeing me made my joke even funnier. To me at least heh I crack myself up sometimes.
 
Hi Ladies. Glad to hear the happy gender news :)

I was out of town for the weekend with family, and it was great catching up with everyone. As if on cue, the little on started kicking on a pretty regular basis. Very reassuring :cloud9:
 
I'm heading out today to start picking up a couple of things for the baby, which is exciting. And, I think I can feel teeny tiny butterflies in my tummy so I can way to feel proper movements!

How's everyone doing?
 
Ooh, Alea. How exciting! I'm looking forward to my 20 week scan in 2 weeks when I will start picking up things.

I solidly switched from 1st to 2nd trimester symptoms- foot/leg cramps, indigestion and heart burn.

It was great seeing family. I told my cousins all my miscarriage history, and learned that each of them had their own stories. We played with their kids- ranging in age from 10 months to 24 years. My one cousin had her son at 47 and he's beautiful and healthy.
 
Glad everyone had great holiday weekends.

Xan- so cool you are feeling movement regularly. Alea- awesome you are going baby shopping today! I am tempted but will prob wait until after 20 wks.

Uni- that is so cute and hilarious!

Campn-- so nice you announced your pregnancy!

Afm- didn't announce over the weekend..Had some worries with my mom and had to call 911. Seems ok now. OH is worried about all this stress on baby and I am too now. Listening to Mozart a lot now and trying to relax-- they say playing Mozart is good for our babies in womb!
 
uni - that is so funny and super cute!!

alea - so exciting!! I can't wait to start shopping. We have our gender scan in 9 days, so maybe I will start to shop after that! :)

xan - great to hear you are feeling movement regularly. I have been too, but sometimes it still not everyday. I drank a glass of chocolate milk yesterday and within 20 min the baby was going crazy!! lol

Hopie - I am sorry you had another scare with you mom. Glad to hear it ok now. I've also heard Mozart is great for babies in the womb:) I will have to try!!


AFM - tomorrow I have my prenatal appt that was rescheduled from last week. I am excited and nervous. I hope they are able to hear the HB easily this time. Today is also my little guys 4th bday:) He is my baby and I cannot believe he is already 4. He will start school this Sept. Time flies!!
 
hello ladies!! Sorry I have been MIA recently. I got a promotion at work that doesn't allow much free time.
Glad you all had a nice Easter.

Congrats on the genders live and desiree!!! I will add them to page one!:happydance:

Great reveal pic Campn! what a beautiful family you have!

Not much new here. Appointment this afternoon
Psy - I have to wait till 20 weeks too for my gender scan. It seems so far away!! I just want to know now!!
 
Geez I feel like all I do is sleep and all I want to do is sleep, I can't wait to feel a bit more normal still gipping and being sick too grr. Watching one born a that I missed half off cos I was asleep :( :growlmad:
 
Just1- congrats on the promotion..that's awesome!

Mari- wishing you all the best at your appt. today. Thanks- I sure hope things calm down soon. I'm doing some relaxation meditations on you tube which seem to help. Happy 17 weeks to you! So glad your sickness is gone. I'm on day 3 without Zofran and hope it lasts.

Anyone else near 17 wks and still not showing? This is strange..really thought I would be by now. Hoping when I start to feel movement this feels more real! Wishing everyone a great day~
 
Hopie- I'm 15 weeks with my second and not showing all that much, sometimes it's still just my squishy fatty parts or just bloat. Also my flutters are still so subtle and rare, I'm hoping to start feeling more movement.

But I can no longer sleep on my back which sucks cause if I keep sleeping on only my sides my back hurts a lot, I can sleep somewhat on my belly though.
 
Hopie- I'm glad to see that you have managed 3 days without medication! Hope it is a steady trend :hugs:

With my first pregnancy I was barely showing at 18 weeks, and that was without any vomiting. I saw a woman that was suffering from very bad MS and she was flat as a board. I think as you feel better and are able to keep more food down you should start showing really soon. Even now, depending on what I wear, my bump isn't always apparent. And the kicks just started this week at about 17 weeks.

Campn- I hear you about uncomfortable sleeping. I can only sleep on my side and I wake up after 3-4 hours because my hip/thigh is sore on one side, flip over and repeat.
 
Hopie - thanks:) Happy 17 weeks to you as well! My appt went well today. They heard the HB very easily. My doc also booked my anatomy scan and it will be Tues April 12th. Yay! So glad to hear you are doing well off the meds. Fingers crossed it stays that way! I am not really showing much either. I have only gained 3lbs so far. I actually lost weight in the first tri due to my morning sickness. All my normal pants still fit but they are starting to feel a bit snug.

campn - I cannot sleep on my back either. I sleep on my side with a body pillow. I am starting to get some hip pain which is making sleeping on my side a bit uncomfortable. I wake up at least 2x a night to pee. I don't feel like I am getting restful sleep.
 
just1: ooo congrats on the promotion!

alea: I went shopping this last weekend too! But didn't pick up anything, I'll probably do the amazon baby registry which gives you 15% off I think. Still it's fun to actually look at the cute baby things

hopie: they do say classical music is great for brain development :) hope everything is going well with your mom

xan: me too. nausea's gone but replaced by joint pain, insomnia and other random grab bag of symptoms. I do prefer all of it to nausea though.

heh i've been showing since last week and I was barely 14 weeks. I am pretty short though, so I guess the baby just needs more room.

I tried to subtly announce it on fb this weekend. DH gave me a necklace for our anniversary, it has 3 hearts, the smallest is a ruby stone. So I posted it and said 3 hearts is better than 2. But I think it's too subtle and no one picked up on it. :haha: Still, a lovely anniversary present, very happy with DH right now.
 
Mari- that's great that you're appointment went well. We have anatomy scans the same day. Can't wait!
 
xan - thanks:) Yay for anatomy scans! I cant wait either!

psy - That is a beautiful anniversary gift:) i'm surprised nobody picked up on that. I totally would have!

Just1more - congrats on your promotion!
 
Hopie, i am showing already but, part of it is my fatty tummy. By evening I am so tight in tummy I can hardly breathe. This is my second and there was no denying I am preggo from very early on.

campn, same here. Can't sleep on my back either. I was tummy sleeper but, can't imagine doing it now.

Xan, I can totally understand. My hips and back is killing me too. Yesterday I begged my oh for bum massage. lol.

psychochick, what a wonderful present and I think lovely announcement too. Too bad people didn't get it. I generally get hints from such things but, might be difficult for many.

mari, great to hear your appointment went well.

Afm, I am feeling nauseous and that too in second semester. Go figure! Don't understand why it would linger now. I am definitely hungry alot but, doctor has warned me in first appointment so taking extra care not to be over eating. I have gained somewhere around 12lb which is way higher compared to my last pregnancy. How about everyone else?
 
Sweety- I haven't weighted myself since my appointment at 12 weeks but I don't think I gained anything yet, I kept getting sick (not related to just pregnancy) but that's okay. If you gain a lot of none it'll all even itself out by the end. With DS some weeks I gained 6 lbs and some weeks I gained none!

Mari- Yay for the HB and anatomy scan coming up soon! Mine will be in early May.

Just- congrats on your promotion! I remember you mentioning it few weeks ago. I hope your appointment goes great today! Update us.

Psy- How cute! I think if you added "coming September 2016" people will start getting it! With DS I changed my profile picture to a jar of prego spaghetti sauce and people got it right away.

Xan- The flip over and repeat is so me! I feel like I'm a fish being fried.

My gender scan is on Wednesday. I'm very excited and nervous! Hopefully they can tell at 16 weeks?
 
they should be able to tell at 16 weeks where I went Saturday they start gender scans at 15 weeks however I was 17 weeks it was easily visable.
