I'm sleeping great apart from a middle of the night interruption from one of my little men 😀
Appetite is totally gone aswell only eat when I'm hungry! And I have waves of nausea on and off throughout the day but not half as bad as the first trimester

I feel pretty good! Nausea is pretty much completely gone unless I over eat and then I regret it! I am still working out about 6 days a week but my normal workouts are getting harder. I haven't noticed a significant difference in my appetite but I'm back to eating what and how I did pre-pregnancy and pre-morning sickness...thank goodness! I'm getting good, restful sleep but I still feel sluggish all morning at work. Not sure why? This baby bump is growing like crazy! Still waiting on some bump pics from you ladies [emoji6]🤰🏼[emoji991] This little boy over here is still nameless...

I'm so sluggish in the morning too! :( I don't know what to do about it. I end up crawling back in bed most days, but it messes up my schedule and I need to get it together. u_u
I hear you ladies... thank God for Spark! I would have tough days especially since my thyroid gets messed up with pregnancy. I'll post a belly pic as soon as I can take one!

I am 14 weeks now and I am just starting to feel a bit better. Still get nausea if I don't eat every few hours and when I get headaches it makes me throw up. My midwife said that I can use peppermint oil on temples if I need to help with pain of headache. That kind of helps.
Baby girl is craving fresh fruit and veggies which I am so happy about! My sweet tooth is like gone. I always have one not pregnant.
As far as exercise .. I am just getting back into it. Roe... how do you work out 6 days a week!? O wish I had that energy! You go girl!!
I've weaned off my morning sickness pills... so I've found I am waking up at 5am every morning ready to go for the day. Those pills made me so sleepy

I'm trying to not have more than 100mg of caffeine per day, otherwise I'd have cup of coffee in the morning to help, but instead I have tea, which just makes me a bit sleepier lol. Funny thing is I wake up at about 4AM ready to go, but by 7 I'm sluggish u_u
Lol. Yes I know what you mean! Today I embraced the 5am wake up call. 😂Quote:

Eek as we get closer to the ultrasound date, I'm getting more and more antsy. I just gotta decide if we will find out or wait... I keep looking at our one and only ultrasound and keep thinking about the Ramzi theory. I hope its just bogus. I mean I'm not sure where the placenta is, just the direction of the umbilical cord... but it's driving me nuts!

Hang in there Jconger! You don't have to find out, if you don't want to. If you still want to wait to think it over, you can always have them write the gender down for you and put in an envelope for you to open later. I had to do that with my DS2. I wanted another son so badly, and I was for sure he was a she. He had a girlie skull, and we didn't get a clear nub shot at the NT scan.

Ramzi theory is not accurate at all. What if you don't find out.... are you going to be obsessing over ultrasound pics the whole pregnancy? I only ask bc that would be torture for a person like me.Quote:

Thanks girl! I appreciate your advice. I'm afraid I might drive myself nuts for another 20 Weeks. I know there won't be disappointment holding the baby but yeah you are right. My father in law prayed before I got pregnant, asking for a son, and I know he wants me to "find out and get it over with" bc I'm driving him nuts. He tells me to just believe. Thanks about the Ramzi. I feel like everything is opposite so I will just trust Him. Thanks again!Quote:

No problem. I know what you must be going through trying to analyze everything and it can drive a person mad. I did the same before I found out the gender with my kids 😊Quote:

Join us on the green side, Jconger :p I'm still getting to that place of peace, but each day feels better. It does help that DH doesn't want to know I have to say. What does your DH say about all this?
Four more days until my ultrasound! I'm really trying to prepare myself to hear blue, but either way the wondering and driving myself crazy over it should be over on Saturday.
Oh did you decide to not find out? I thought you changed from green to finding out lol. My husband doesn't really care. I think he thinks a surprise would be awesome, but I'm also driving him bonkers lol. If I do find out, pretty sure I'm the only team blue person finding out if i get to stay team blue or not lol.Quote:

I want to give myself time to come to terms with having another son or ecstatic I'm having a girl, a week to go!!! 🤔

I was going to get the scan, but they couldn't get me in before 18 weeks, which was my time limit. DH kept insisting he didn't want to know this entire time, but I was pushing it lol. So, I just backed down and will be staying team green. Hopefully the midwife doesn't get pushy with a scan.Quote:

such a cute bump!
I'm a bit worried lol, my bump isn't forming at all. I look the same except that my flabby tummy doesn't have such a pronounced B shape anymore. I'm wearing the same clothing and seem to be slimming out at the top (bra strap area). I found a pic of me at 25 weeks with DD and I was heavier back then. I did have a pronounced bump. So I'd assume since Im slimmer this time, my bump should be showing sooner. hmmm.
Also, my uterus seems to be lopsided this time around. When I feel it, it bulges out more towards the left side than it does to the right, anyone else notice anything similar? I assume it will even out as the pregnancy progresses.
Yay!! Jconger!! You look so cute!!

My friends want to do a gender reveal where I don't know what the gender is either and I found out with everyone else, which I don't have a problem with. However, I've scheduled my u/s at 16 weeks on the 14th of next month and I'm going out of town to visit family that following weekend. So, we were going to the reveal on the 24th but when I told my mom she reminded that she is going vacation that weekend so it would have to be that next weekend on July 1st. I think I will have to push the u/s back a few weeks because I can't walk around that long knowing that someone else knows it would drive me crazy lol! So my options are to do the u/s at 15 weeks or wait until 18 weeks to do the u/s. 3 weeks really isn't that long...what do you ladies think?
Hi Ladies...I've been gone awhile...life at the moment is crazy with work!
@ahorn586, I'd probably wait till 18 weeks if you can...it's likely that the earlier you have the ultrasound the more you doubt it...especially after reading anything Google has to say....!
Both my last pregnancy and current one was at 14 weeks and they could tell right away. I went to an actual 4d scan place that tells you gender not a medical scan. In fact last pregnancy at 20 week anatomy medical scan she told me she wasn't 100% that it was a girl bc of baby's position. If I hadn't been told at 14 weeks... I may not have known.Quote:

Thanks BB .. yes your right I will find peace whatever the outcome and I think i need the remaining 20 wks to get my head around it If it is a boy. Otherwise it will take over my life which I don't want to happen xx

DS2 was lopsided all the way through. He pushed towards my right from the beginning.Quote:

I'm asking for growing bump pics...so here's mine. This was last week at about 16w1d and I'm 17 weeks today. I need to take an updated one this week ☺ My belly is huge..not sure this shirt is doing me any favors [emoji51]
Amelia, super excited for you!

Jconger, I think I've decided to go team green now. Jooooooooin us!
Cosmosis, I had a lopsided uterus with DS2. He was stuck on one side the whole time and he was almost a ten pounder carrying really low, so it pushed my back out of whack and caused me some discomfort (no issues in labor as a result of that, though, he was in a good position for delivery). I visited an osteopath during and after pregnancy and there wasn't much she could do before I gave birth because DS2 was happy just hanging out on that side of my uterus, but after the birth she realigned things and it helped with my back pain.
So cute. Your belly isn't huge!Quote:

Loving the bump pics! Hoping everyone is well!
I've been a little concerned lately with feeling some pressure and swelling down below. Hoping it's just a second baby thing and things are more relaxed. My 20 wk appt is in 6 days and I should know if there are any cervical shortening issues or what not, god forbid. I had a healthy pregnancy last time so no cause for alarm other then getting myself into trouble reading boards online. Read to many horror stories!
Anyone else feeling swollen down there? At 19 weeks?!?!
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Omg I'm so glad you posted this. I seriously feel super swollen down south.. so much pressure. I just assumed it's from the increased blood flow down there. Cuz I notice it especially when I workout and lift... weird.. lolQuote:

Here's my weird bump lol and my morning glory.. and mid bathroom remodel.. this pretty much sums up my life as of late [emoji23]

Nann! Glad I'm not crazy. I seriously never felt this last time even later on. That I remember. It's just giving me anxiety that some John's going to give way, everytime I pick up my son I feel worried. And even walking i notice things just seem to slightly rub in ways they never did before!
Just looking forward to my 20 week scan and seeing the dr for some reassurance!

Yes!! Seriously it feels like the baby is gonna like fall out of me cuz it's like pressing so hard on my vagina! LOLQuote:

I don't have alot of discomfort in my vag, but DTD hurts, I guess due to swelling.
Erin, so glad to have you on team green!
My uterus wall collapsed on my last son and its sticking out so i look like i got a golf ball in my vag ���� i dont think i need to worry about hubby trying to have sex with me like this yayyyy it bled a little this morning but ive just had a scan and shes fine well the sonographer said it was pointless me getting a gender scan next week so i hope she also think its a girl..is it me ladys or does she have crazy long legs for 15 week Attachment 36320
