Oooooo!!!!! Can't wait to hear about it!
Had dinner and no cramps so good so far!!
PP, you find out on the 18th?
HappyLea, I dont have this shoes, but I may track them down! I really want to find a pair in this similiar color scheme and fabric. I think it would be too adorable to see a little in those kind of shoes! Speaking of shoes, I got a pedi the other week and I need some cute work sandals to show it off! I also got 30 free bucks to spend at my kids shop I go to (you know when you buy X amount of dollars they give you 'cash' to spend at a later time?) the cash expires on the 19th, and I do not want to waste 30 free bucks...I'll probably be looking mostly in girl section again, but I am vowing to be a good mommy and get the boys each something new!
Yesterday, DS1 got mad that DS2 was following him around too much and they were fighting over the door, and DS2 got his little fingers stuck! DS1 hadn't closed it very tight, and DS2 was more upset I think about being left out than his fingers. There were a little red at first but then recovered fine quickly. Then DS1 started crying really hard because my DH yelled at him for closing the door on DS2 fingers, and then DS2 started crying again after hearing DS1 cry! It was terrible! We were trying to tell DS1 that we were upset over his actions, but he thought we didn't love him anymore and took it very personally. I still don't think he understood what we were saying...he just took it as Daddy got mad at him. I want him to understand WHY, but he's still 4, so this is normal, right?
Pinkin, before you know it, June will be here! i know it sounds so far away...I can't believe it's been almost 4 weeks since we found out the baby's gender...these last 4 weeks flew by! And I'm glad your tooth isn't giving you any more trouble.
auroara - I hope to find out on the 18th since the baby seems to be shy. I am not holding my breath but I can hope!
Mocha are you going to update the front page on who is having what? I like to see who already knows and who doesn't.
Pinkin, that's exciting! Can't wait to hear!
Sorry I've been so lazy about updating the roll call at the beginning ladies - I updated the genders that I could think of off-hand. Anyone want to help me fill in the blanks? Also, anyone who's missing from the list, please let me know. Flava - I know you're still not there - what's your due date so I can add you??
Oh, and pinkin - I'll be stalking you in June!!
Mocha,
you can also update the following:
Emmy :DS:
ZB :DD:
sallygal :DS:
Thanks, auroara - they're updated!
When did ZB confirm gender? I thought she was going off the 12wk nub.
I'm having a boy.
Wait, isn't your DH your OB TTC5?
Wish he was lol
Must be someone else your thinking of? xx
Pinkin, I had a root canal done when I was pg with DS2. Not a heap of fun at the time, but worth it in the end. Hope she can numb it more easily tomorrow for you. Perhaps take a couple of panadol before you go to help a little bit as well.
TTC5, how horrible. Have they done a stool test yet? It has gone on for so long now you should try and find out if it is viral or bacterial. I had campylobacter food poisoning with DS1 and until I was on the right ABs, I was so sick.
ZB posted it on one of the OWT threads or somewhere else that she has confirmed its a girl though she still hopes it will come out a boy. I think it was on the thread where she ran into a friend that just knew her baby was a boy though she had just recently gotten confirmation that it was going to be a girl.
TTC5, sorry you are still suffering :( I hope you can find relief soon!
Tooth troubles during pg are the pits! I am so sorry for anyone who has to go thru it. I had a tooth abscess with DS1 and it was awful. :hugs: to Pinkin!
Hey everyone, I still haven't told my family about the pregnancy yet, and I am starting to stress! (They all live out of state and haven't seen me, or they would surely know by now!) I was talking to my mom yesterday, and she was actually saying how she missed having a baby around, and when I didn't really say much in response, she said, "You're beyond that now, aren't you?" in a tone that made me realize she might actually be HAPPY to hear about another grandbaby. So I guess I am not too worried about her.... but the inlaws and my dad, well, I am not looking forward to telling them.
Hobbers, my mom would disinterit me if I hadn't told her as soon as I found out! Even though she was not happy at all (she worries about us finacinally too much), it was great that it gave her time to adjust, though then i had to deal with her haggling me about gender. Of course now that i'm having a girl it's "no big deal" and if this was a boy she would have been bemoaning about how why couldn't it have been a girl...(Yeah, I love our forced twice weekly conversations on the phone!)
When are ya thinking about telling them?
hobber - the longer you wait the more upset they will be.
Just woundering for the ladies on their second preg now OR if you can remember your second one, When did you start to pop out a bit and when did you feel bubs move??
Pinkin only really started getting movement 19+ weeks.
Off to dr today hopefully they will do a poo test. Fun..
Okay, I did it. Sent out 3 emails with the news. I hope I don't have to talk to any of them tonight. Maybe they will email me back instead of calling.
I just recently popped out for REAL this past week (ya know, so it looks like actual baby bump instead of looking bloated or fat). Then again, I've sort of been gaining a bit more than I would like, too.
As far as movement, I've been able to really tell it's baby since around 15 weeks. But it's not consistent or powerful or anything. At this point I even get sort of a queasy feeling because it seems like baby is rolling around like crazy! I just know now that it's not my previous gas problems. ;) LOL!
With my 2nd pregnancy, I started feeling movement around 18 weeks I think? Maybe 16? I can't remember. It was earlier than the first because I knew what I was feeling. Can't remember the 3rd but this time I think it was around 15 weeks or so? I popped out pretty quickly this time, and I am HUGE now.
Thanks girls, I have not grown much yet at all I have been walking a fair bit tho so maybe that is why.... I am 16 weeks and 3 days I need to change my dates down the bottom somehow!!
As for the movement I do feel a bit every now and then! I felt my ds at around 17 weeks!
I was a bit worried on monday when i went to my ob because i wasnt growing really and was worried something may have been wrong but thank goodness there was a heartbeat and she found it pretty quick.. Bubs was still pretty low down and still sticking to my left side ha ha !
I know a lady who hardly showed AT ALL and seriously I would not have even known she was pregnant if I didn't know. Her baby was just fine and normal sized! She just somehow had an amazing body that didn't show!
was she really fit?
Hobbers good luck with telling the news!
Pinkin, I don't remember when I popped out with DS2, only that it was earlier than with DS1. That whole pg was a blur, as I was so busy running around after DS1 and working! With DS1 I was 23 weeks before people were game enough to ask me if I was pg (I kept a diary with that one!) Movement wise, I thought it was around 17 weeks. This time I have an anterior placenta so think I may feel it quite late.
TTC5, the hospital that rehydrated you should have sent off a specimen. Seriously, if you are sick enough to need a drip, you are sick enough to find out what the hell is going on! I was 19 weeks when I got campylobacter with DS1, so very similar. DH got it as well (dodgy thai fish cakes that weren't cooked properly at a cafe). It runs your body down terribly, to the point that I almost needed a blood transfusion and DH got pneumonia. Anyway, I am hoping that it does not turn out to be that in your case, but if you are like me, you want to know one way or the other so you can be treated effectively. Your baby will be taking every little thing it needs from you and leaving you with nothing. They are very resilient, but it is horrible to go through. And yes, mine started with dreadful abdominal cramps and then the diarrhoea started and it continued for a week until I was diagnosed. I didn't vomit at all. Hope you get some answers soon. Keep up the gastrolyte!
Hey PP, yes they said they were going to get a sample but never did. They shoo you out the door fast as they get you in, our medical system here is a disgrace :(
Anyway my dr has given me a sterile container to get a sample and will run it through pathology soon as I go. He mentioned it sounds like the infection you mentioned above!
Same here, no vomiting either. Just excrutiating cramps and the runs, if it isnt runs it is really fluffy and soft like sorry TMI.
