Part 2: Due December 2017 January and February 2018

Pbn the exercise doesn't do me any good weight wise I come from a large family so I have crap genes and have to work so hard just to not be 200lbs!
50% that's all! I'm so jealous of the other 50%. The only reason I feel I'm doing ok is because of my neighbor she is superwoman. She probably started out 100lbs gained less than recommended , always had her house perfect, always cooks dinner for her husband and kids, always exercises blah blah blah and on top of all that she has a head injury where she has constant headaches and she was super sick with m/s. [emoji58] so annoying she has it all together but I try to tell my self if Beth can do it I can do it lol but I'm no where near super woman she is my house looks like a zoo

Srg, Maybe there's something to the exercise. Seems like Ash is experiencing a bit more relief by being a bit more active. May be worth a shot.

Dreaming I do a workout video a few times a week called active maternity from autumn calabrese (beach body) and she says exercise releases endorphins which lessens m/s so even if you feel miserable a small walk will help

Sorry Ash meant to say before that I think the crc did a great job on my glass!! I had lots of calcified water marks and they are all but gone now! I poured crc directly onto a thick non scratch scouring pad.

Dreaming I really hope this ms passes quickly for you... maybe try a daily walk like Ash mentioned and see if it makes any difference. Although with the little you're eating you probably cant afford to use the calories up exercising :(

Srg that's fantastic that your also exercising and yay for no gain yet! Between you and Ash I'm starting to feel somewhat motivated! I might look into some pregnancy yoga dvds..... I used to do a gym class before ds2 that was a mix of yoga, tai chi and pilates and loved it!! There was an aerobics type one too that I really enjoyed. I think its a worldwide brand? Les Mills ring a bell to anyone?

Haven't had any nausea in just under a week so hoping mine has passed. Never had it with DD so it knocked me for six even though I never spewed.
10 weeks tomorrow!

Yay for no nausea dancing!! 10 weeks!! Have you booked your 12w scan? Even though your team green will you still look for the nub? I'm planning on telling my u/s tech that I don't wish to see anything in that area at all whether they believe the nub theory or not. Even if it only means seeing bubs head and arms that's ok! I'd rather that than thinking I seen the nub and spending the rest of the pregnancy thinking I know gender :) I may even request to only see the face at my 20 week scan too. It sucks because I want to see every bit of baby but then again there'll be plenty of time once bub is here ❤

Hello all.

Ash. Cute hair bands. Love your shopping in discounted prices. And good idea of excercise.

Pbn. How strong you would be to don't know gender. Isn't it's too difficult. I am also want to be in green team. But I know once time ll come I ll jump to ask ;)

Dancingdiva. Wohooo 10 weeks :). Hope all goes well :).

How's you dreamin and srg?

Here is summer weather and my feel are warm and giving me a bit stress that it's indication of a baby girl. OWT says hot feet baby girl, cold feet baby boy. Any of you experienced such with previous pregnancies?


Sent from my ALE-L21 using Tapatalk

Sumbal I wouldn't worry about any OWT they're not proven and just really stress a person out when they don't need to be. I'm sure your having your sweet boy


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sumbal ditto what Ash says about old wives tales as that's just what they are - tales/fiction :)

So ladies I've put on 2kg in just 3 weeks and nearly 8kgs since probably December/January?? I'm seriously going to start counting calories and monitor fat intake plus try really hard to start daily 30 minutes on the treadmill. Problem is I'm having alot of trouble sleeping and feel super tired alot of the time. I woke and went to the loo at 3.24am and never got back to sleep. Plus the last time I checked the time last night it was 10pm so I'm guessing I got 'maybe' 5 hours sleep. This happens regularly. I have almost finished weaning off my anti depressants so I'm hoping the insomnia is related to that and goes away once I'm completely done within 2 weeks time..... tired of watching the scales go up when I want them to go down 😂

I feel ya! I have found my "happy" place weight wise and have been holding steady after gaining 7lbs which is what 3kilos? So I'm a bit worse off


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Some nights I sleep well and some it's awful I feel so tired but when I lay down I feel sluggish and uncomfortable like I shouldn't be in bed or something. And I've been having to get up at least once for the bathroom which I hate


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ash remind me again, when is your phone call with RN? I know its this week just unsure of which day :)

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Friday for me so Saturday for you. If I'm right it'll be about two hours before you wake


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What time is your scan tomorrow?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Pbn ack, lack of sleep sucks. I hope you manage to try to catch a little more. Hope the scan goes well too.

Sumbal, try not to pay too much attention to old wives tales. They're really only good for stressing us out.

As for me, I've been MIA again. Mostly because I feel so damn lousy that there's nothing else to say. I hit 8 weeks a few days ago, heard baby's heartbeat on a Doppler (147 bpm) which is all awesome but I find myself wishing away this next few weeks. I'm so tired of feeling so sick. Why do we never remember how rubbish first tri can make us feel?

Hope the next few weeks pass quickly 4blue1pink and sorry to hear you're feeling so yuk. Not long now xxoo

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Ash. You are right. And thank you so much.

Pbn. Good idea to keep excercise on. But it's also good for baby to gain weight while being pregnant. But so sorry to hear that sleep is becoming problem for you. Hope you can sleep well. Talk to your ob for this concern.
Pbn hope your scan goes well.
I am waiting for the update.

4blue1pink yes absolutely, first tri is litterly making all of us sick. I didn't felt such miserable with my dd. But this time. I even can not pass through where someone cooking and onion smell in oil. It's really yuck. I don't know when it LL be okay.
I also feel tired but sleep well.



Sent from my ALE-L21 using Tapatalk

Pbn lol I've never though you've gotten enough sleep since I've been on here. You wake up sooooo early! Maybe you'll sleep better with dh gone I know I do when mine leaves for a business trip as long as I'm not reading a scary book [emoji23] and btw you look beautiful and not even near 39 (that is what you said right) and I don't think gaining a few lbs will hurt you at all you look great!


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What a lovely thing to say!! I ❤ you Ash!! Lol I definately look my age IRL probably older 😂 but it always feels nice to hear someone thinks otherwise 😘

Speaking of reading I haven't read a book for sooooo long. I used to be a really big reader and collected books (mostly trilogies and larger series) but also my fave authors. Gave away an entire bookcase worth when the kids come along and they've totally trashed almost all the ones I have left 😢 I could just cry when I think about it but hey what can you do other than hopefully replace them one day when the boys move out of home 😂😂 probably be the next chance I get to read too!!

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Lol yes! I'm a bad reader because if I pick up a book I have no life until I'm finished with it usually within 2 days time [emoji17] so I try to limit myself on my reading because I do not have time for that! I do have a new one waiting right beside me but I just haven't cracked it yet


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Need to be sew sew sewing to catch up on orders but all I can do is EAT!!! Feeling better today and chocolate is my go to. Hey at least it's dark right?
Glad I haven't heard from you yet pbn maybe you getting a good sleep today [emoji4] GL in a few hours!


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Morning Ash lol! Just been catching up but yes I slept a little better last night 😀 scan in 3 hours!!!!!!

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

So exciting! Maybe you'll sleep like a baby tomorrow knowing all is well


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm hoping so!

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Checking in for pbn's scan results :cool:

I'm at that stage where I look a little thick and flubby around the middle but not clearly pregnant. I think it's earlier since this is my fifth baby, but yikes. I don't feel super confident about my body right now, especially since only immediate family knows we're expecting.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Same here srg 5th baby 🤚 in 10 years hoping I don't gain as much as I did with 3 and 4 tho!


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ash, this is my fifth and my oldest won't be 8 until November. Ugh.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep srg so many babies does not do a body good... at least for me. I have 10,7,3,and2 [emoji4]

OK so I'm measuring either one or two days behind (I think as I wasn't temping and am assuming I had a 1-0 attempt as I've never gotten pregnant from anything other than that, plus my cm had turned post o from memory). However she did say bean was wedged right against the side so was trickier to measure. First measurement was 6w5d second was 6w6d. The hb was 113bpm first measurement and second was 121bpm. So the first is concerning to me but the second I'll be happy with lol. My obs appt has been moved up to Thursday at 9.30am (so 48 hours from now) so I'm going to ask if she can re-measure heartrate for me. The u/s tech told me I ovulated from the left ovary (I never asked but is nice to know😊) and that everything looks perfect. Not sure why but I still cant shake that feeling that bean isn't out of the woods just yet but definately feel a little more positive😊I think its the differing measurements that's bothering me lol. I dropped into my obs office to drop off my referral before scan (the office is in same building as u/s place) and the nurse there who I adore seen me and came out and gave me the biggest hug!! It was so sweet I nearly burst into tears 😢 so now I can't wait till Thursday to get my obs take on my scan plus hopefully she'll do her own 😀😀

Thank you all for your thoughts xxoo it means the world to me ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Oh and I was allowed to take a photo of bean on the screen 😉

Pbn - look at that perfection! I'm so happy to see this. Don't worry about the -2 days it's likely because they base the estimated on your O at cd14.




Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you dreaming!!! How are you? Has the ms backed off any?

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

It's gotten worse. I don't know how I'm going to work this week. I may have to call the doctor because I can hardly eat or drink.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That really sucks dreaming... I hope the doctor can help and hope you see one asap as don't want you getting dehyrated. That will make you feel even worse than you already do.

Sent from my SM-G900I using Tapatalk

Jumping in to say I'm SO thrilled for you Pbn3!! I can't wait for your update on Thursday (Wednesday night for me!!)! I'm sure they based your dates from the standard O at CD14. Looks like you have a sticky bean growing in there!!!

Glad to see you saw a HB Pbn :) I understand worrying about the measurements, when I had an early scan with DD I was expecting 6w6d based on ovulation but she measured 6w2d. Her HB was 121 too. I was sure I would miscarry but when I had the 12 week scan the measurements were spot on for ovulation date so she either caught up of the early scan was out.

It is so hard being pregnant after several losses, just try to remember you have made two healthy boys so you can make another healthy baby again!

Pbn I'm so glad the scan went well! Must be such a relief.

Dreamingella: I feel your pain. The vomiting is all day and occasionally waking at night now too. It's getting old, fast. Have to keep telling myself that this will pass.

Wow pbn. So happy for you. I know it's difficult but all will be fine. After some months you ll hold your baby then will forget all these worries.
