Hi ladies!! wantanerd I know how u feel I still feel like I've just found out too!! Its going soooo fast I want it to slow down a bit so I can enjoy it more! I hope the second half goes a bit slower!

We also got some of our nursery furniture in the other day, how much fun is it really??! lol i even enjoyed building the flat pack dresser hehe. Loved putting all my bits and bobs in it and making the bed up on the cot!! makes it feel very very real!!

Still feels very strange to even be pregnant its mental lol x

 

[Wilsey]

Ahhhh I just know I'm going to go overdue. It's so hard to relax and not think about it!

 

[likeaustralia]

I have pics of the nursery to share!! The mobile isn't properly hung yet and I have some work to do on one wall (with the floating shelves), but the rest is just about done. Take a look:

Random one of one of my dogs and some toys. The little giraffe you can kind of see on the side table there is one of those white noise machines that makes "jungle noises" and also has a heartbeat option. I had it on last night when we were in there putting some things together and both of my dogs were laying near it totally relaxed, so I think it works! :

Bookshelf and elephant poster:

Crib and bookshelf (different angle):

Crib and window/valence/etc:

Crib:

Dresser-changer and animal paintings (by me!):

Wall with floating shelves and window/rocker corner (You can see the chain that is attached to the mobile kind of draped over the bottom shelf.. that won't stay there after it's hung over the crib. I'm also planning to hang some photos on either side of the shelves and a put more doo-dads and things on the shelves.):

Mobile - made by me (not yet properly hung):

Pillows and toys:

Rocking chair and bear ottoman:

Looks amazing darl!!

I'll have to post some pics when we finally get our crib sorted. Bubs will be in a bassinet to start with so haven't been in any great rush to get that part finished. Everything else is done in the room though!

Just a few more days for you... I hope baby Wilsey comes on time!!!

 

[Wilsey]

Thanks! Me too!!!

Meeting up with all the antenatal girls today and they all have their babies (except for one who is due today and might be giving birth as we speak). I hope I don't get all emotional seeing their little bundles of joy!!

 

[jmandrews]

wow I haven't been on BnB in awhile. It has been crazy around here. My sister is visiting from NC. I had to go to a wedding over the weekend and had my first baby shower. I am exhausted. Everlee got a lot of great gifts. she is def. spoiled. I go for my gestational diabetes test tomorrow morning. A week from today I leave for vacation.

Wilsey I keep checking to see if you have had your little bundle yet. hang in there it wont be much longer! im excited to see him!

 

[likeaustralia]

I forgot to update about my 24 week appointment on Friday. All is well. My BP is still a bit on the high side (132/76), but they are not concerned about Pre-E as my 24hr urine came back clear!!! So, so relieved about that. They felt around for the baby for the first time and were able to actually feel where his head/bum/legs were, which was pretty cool! He's head down and has his back to my right side, which makes sense because that's where I've been feeling lots of kicks.

The crazy thing is after this great appointment, I walked into our granite countertop late Friday night and woke up with a bruise on my side. I freaked out a bit since I'm O- and called my mw in the morning. They said if it's still sore the next day, after a bump to the bump, they recommend getting the rhogam shot for any Rh- women. Sooo... I ended up going to the ER on Saturday and getting the shot. Let me just say that while I'm glad they are there for emergencies, I am SOOO glad I am planning a non-hospital birth. Being there really makes me so unhappy and nervous. Ugh.

LikeAustralia- your nursery is beautiful!!! You are so talented!!!

My appt didn't go so well today... failed by GTT so have to go tomorrow for the three hour one.. blah. Apparently I am also measuring small so have been referred for a growth scan to see if baby is growing ok.

 

[wantanerd]

I failed the one hour test early in my pregnancy and the three hour test showed I was fine (twice!).

 

[armywife11]

Found out where we are moving to and when. Sadly its somewhere we didn't want and the timing sucks, its much later than we were originally told. We are going to look into our options and see if we can stay till I give birth then move. This baby may be born here in Florida after all. Military life is so much fun.

 

[likeaustralia]

Eeeep! Double digit day!!!

Hi ladies! Oooh still no baby from Wilsey its gonna be soon tho cant wait to hear that he's here safe and well.
I finally got online at my parents house for a lil while so thought I'd best check in with you all.. and also see if anyone can give a lil advice.. I have had some sort of horrible rash It seems to have gotten much better now but it was little red dots, all over my body, really blotchy, mainly on my bump and legs. Got much worse at night.. I phoned the emergency mw on thursday night as couldnt sleep for itching and it looked terrible. It seems to have faded now but I still have extremely itchy feet. Very very irritating!! been to docs and had a blood test for cholestasis (liver problem) so Im waiting for the results of that to come in.. Annoyingly they said if its not that then theres nothing they can do and its just another fun pregnancy symptom. I seriously hope it goes away I cant be this itchy till due day!!

likeaustralia I wish I could see your pics but they wont load
Hope everyone else is well.. I also wondered does everyone get the glucose tests cos I havent had any at all.. hmm..
luv to you all, xxxx

Hmm - I'm not sure why the pics aren't loading. Sorry about that!

As for the glucose tests, I have an appointment to go do mine around 27 weeks. My mw said they usually order them around 27-29 weeks. You're still a bit early yet.
