So I guess this is my first Nine Month Wait...

[Mrs_N]

I just know I am going to put on a ton of weight, I only have to look at food & my hips get bigger

 

[Jen1802]

I'm too scared to weigh myself! I've been eating like a horse for the past two weeks! All healthy stuff though but I'm scaring myself by the amount I'm putting away! I might suck it up and jump on the scales tonight! At least my clothes aren't feeling tight, does your metabolism increase when your pregnant??

Thanks everyone, morning, i've got a minute so I promise later today ill have my room all set up so I can read how you all are doing.

My cervix is thinning or is short? I have a sono today at 10 but I know the stenographer wont say anything and i'll have to wait a few days to know anything more . I wasn't sure what the doc was talking about really cuz it happen so fast with him going over directions of what I can and can't do and how to get out of bed to use the restroom.. He just made it very clear that if I feel anything out of the normal to go to the ER and it doesn't have to be pain related. He has me off work till 7/1. Everyone I've spoke to thinks I'm gonna have her sonner then my due date.

My mom is coming over to help me with the house and a few friends are going to come over to bring me books to read. We're in the middle of a storm too so it doesn't help lol Anyways gonna think positive and try not to think of the bad.

 

[wannabeamom]

hi girlies how are you all???

shawnie make sure you get plenty of rest!!!!

ive felt some definate kicks over the past 2 days yay!!!

got weighed yesterday and have put 2.5lb on so another yay!! still 5.5lb lighter than before my so got some growing space!! the sickness seems to have got better haent been sick since tues and before that it was sun cheese appears to be the main culpret! but that is quite worrying as its the only dairy which i eat and the midwife told me to make sure i eat it bu just cnt now as it makes me violently sick???

 

[dmn1156]

Shawnie if your cervix is short then they say there is a chance you can give birth early but they usually say here in the uk before 33 weeks so i hope that is not the case for you and hope she stays put until her due date just rest and follow what advice they offer you

wannabe if cheese is aking you sick then no real pointin eating it you can get calcium in other sources as long as everything is going well and baby is healthy i dont think cheese is essential i never eat cheese as it has the same effect on me makes me really ill lol glad your starting to feel better and movements are getting stronger

i had a very bad nights sleep get getting a lot of stomach cramps and twinges which made it impossible to get comfortable and sleep so i feel exhausted today lol

 

[westbrja]

I just ate a whole entire footlong subway sub. OMG! I have my days where I can't get enough either. I've gained 4 lbs so far. I didn't gain much with the other 2 kiddos. I'm hoping this is the same. Well I'm gonna get a nap in while the kids are at school before our appt. Appts at 4pm my time and its noon now. Be back with an update later. I'm so nervous.

 

[Mrs_N]

good luck west, let us know how things go!
shawnie hope bubs stays put!
wannabe no point eating the cheese if it's making you sick - you aren't getting any of the goodness from it then, and you are loosing goodness from the other things you've eaten, makes no sense :nono:

I'm having a proactive day today, just finished my tax return (man, I hate doing those!) and I have reorganised all my paperwork files - I now have 7 folders in categories (cars, home furnishings/decoration, insurance, bank statments, utilities etc) and in each coloured, labelled dividers & paperwork is in plastic folders each labelled. wow I feel organised! It's slightly OTT but I do like being organised!!

 

[Csunshine013]

SDBL love the pictures!

Shawnie hope you carry this little one as close to the due date as possible!

Mrs N totally know all about just looking at the food and my hips expand or my backside grows I have different cravings now. I crave bananna peppers and salads and chinese food. LMAO I really want an open face roast beef sandwich with brown gravy and mashed potatoes right now. LOL Food why do we need it to survive???? ARGH so many choices!

West can't wait to hear how it goes today!

Kelly hope school isn't so bad this semester! I will have to go to your journal and check out the pics!

wannabe I wouldn't eat cheese if it makes you ill. There are loads of foods that have dairy in them. Try looking for those foods instead of the cheese or just take a calcium supplement.

afm just getting by these days. I did manage to start my preggo journal have to figure out how to add a link in my siggy still. DD now know all about the baby and is very excited. She asked if she has to keep quiet or can she tell her friends. LOL she is oh so very cute about the whole thing.

I am now craving Chinese so we will be ordering it for dinner tonight unless something else catches my sense of smell but I work next door to a Chinese resteraunt so chances are I will be getting that for dinner. LOL

Hope your all doing well!

Hey all

Shawnie will the sex your cervix shut then? I heard they do that for a shortening cervix. Take her easy and relax and make sure you turn yourself you don't want bed sores! Hahaha. I know you know that though.

DMN I hope you do get to enjoy some part of your pregnancy for a small period.

West I can't wait to hear how your scan went! I am super excited.

I weigh myself twice a day once in the morning and one in the day and so far I am either 1 pound lost or exactly the same as a was when I found out. I am happy with that they say no weight gain in first tri is ok and a little is fine to. I have also started taking my prenatal vitamins again and so far I am not getting the nausea from them. I hope that keeps up.

I guess I am off to school now! It is going ok but I Have a midterm on wednesday so I'll be studying a lot. I also have to be up at 5am tomorrow for clinical.

 

[dmn1156]

west hope you scan goes well

Mrs N i wish i was that organised i try to be it does not always go as planned tho lol

Csunshine your making me hungry with all those delicious foods lol they all sound so tempting i had spaghetti bolognaise for dinner and i actually enjoyed it

Kelly hope your doing ok today and i hope there is some part of this pregnancy that i can enjoy would be nice lol but i have decided i am going to kick these illnesses into touch one way or another and as for the spd il just have to walk through the pain lol

 

[Mrs_N]

yeah, I go through phases of organisation. when I was a child I would often spend the whole weekend moving around all the furniture in my room and reorganising everything!
now I am one of those that has their DVDs in alphabetical order, clothes sorted by colour etc etc! tends to get messed up after a few weeks though and then I have to do it again!

 

[dmn1156]

no im not that organised i have a small filing cabinet that matches my living room furniture lol and all the files are labelled i just forget to clear it out every once in a while and it gets a bit full lol. I had a major clean up the other week and everywhere was spotless then i got ill and it all went to pot a bit but from tomorrow that is is im giving all my ailments there marching orders and getting on regardless the spd may be a bit harder but il work through the pain and rest when i need to lol

 

[dmn1156]

oh and i did something quite naughty yesterday my oh was still being a bit awkward so he loves all the soaps so as he sat down to watch them from the sky+ i gave away all the story line and the storyline for the next month or so he was not amused to say the least i dont watch them myself but it was nice to see his pleasure cut short watched the nta awards instead lol

 

[Csunshine013]

I can't help it I'm very hungry all the time lately

That is so very funny about the soap and your DH LMAO

I am not a very organized person I have certain things that I'm very organized with and others that are just jumbled together. LOL

Hope you all have a lovely evening!

I just had a huge sale with a tour company to Australia and Fiji and New Zealand! WOOOO HOOOOO!!!!

Take that nasty boss!

[dmn1156]

west how did your scan go

 

[dmn1156]

well that will teach him to get on my nerves in future he will just watch them now to see if im right which i am lol i feel huge tonight that will be the 2nd helping of dinner i had lol also had a nice bath and did all the girlie things whilst in there may have to use my shaver in future tho cut my legs more than once lol think my skin is more sensitive

 

[westbrja]

Ok ladies....so we have only 1 baby. I don't know if I'm happy or disappointed. Twins would have been nice but in all reality we only really have space for 1. So by the scan I'm due Aug.2nd, which if you remember is OH's birthday. Since its only a couple days different the doc prolly won't change my EDD. So I guess my uterus is just growing faster since this is baby #3.
Shawnie - Hope you stay busy and can find stuff to do while in bed.
DMN - You are so naughty! That sounds like sumthin I would do lol.
Mrs N - My mom is the exact same way and I'm kinda the opposite. I'm bad with mail and kids school papers. I have a file cabinet but it tucked away in the closet and I have to go thru a lot to get to it. I need sumthin more handy.
So there's our update. Hope everyone has a good night.

 

[dmn1156]

West when i went for my 20 wk scan they said baby was big and when mw measured she said spot on and it would be average size lol but no 3 so il believe it when they weigh her lol as for my oh it was the only thingi knewwould bother him lol so he copped for it lol. i am glad your scan went well
