Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

So how are we all feeling??

I have been pretty good. I had a regular checkup last week and the baby's heart rate sounded good. I am full of dr appts in Sept, I have my 20 week on 9/11, and on 9/19 I am doing my glucose test :(

Hope everyone is feeling well

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

hi mamas! I am 18w3d today and feeling good! STILL having digestive issues almost like IBS but otherwise OK. Only gained 1-2 lbs (depending on the day). My feet are swelling a bit by the end of the night but the swelling is 100% gone in the am.

Feeling DD daily, not really strong movements but consistant.

We have started thinking about her room and she has a name which will remain secret until her bday.

I go for my second level II on 9/11.

Other than that, just like as usual with a 2 year old. I forget I am even pregnant half the time

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

I've only gained 1-2 pounds also ( i keep loosing weight when I go to the dr. but he doesn't have a problem with it).

I also don't feel pregnant sometimes esp since I have no bump :( I can't wait for my bump to show up.

I'll be 19 weeks tomorrow. I'm also up 1-2 lbs. I'm feeling him move pretty consistently now. I actually felt a roll the other day, which reminded me he's there lol. We hasd dd's first birthday party yesterday with 150 people yesterday. Needless to say, i'm a bit tired today. I can't believe my little girl is already turning 1 next week! I have my ob next week and my peri the following week for my level 2. My belly is starting to pop a little bit which is so weird to me being I didn't really show until 30+ weeks! Hopefully it will make it sink in!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

I don't even want to admit it but at 20 weeks I'm up 14 lbs already! I weigh myself each week; and I only seemed to have gained .5lbs from last week so that's good! It's a slow gain. I think the fact that carbs were my only remedy during my 1st trimester made me pack on the lbs a little more at the beginning!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

Glad to hear all is well with you ladies! I am 19 weeks today. This is round two so I popped at around 8wks. Now I definitely look preggers! I started feeling the baby kick around 2 weeks ago and while I tend to feel it daily, some days are more active than others. I generally feel good, although my legs are arms seem to be getting tired. it is probably because I am chasing around a 2.5 yr old all day!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

Howdy there!!!
Today I'm 18 weeks. Just got back from the gym and noticed I gained another 2lbs from my last doctor visit which was 4 weeks ago. Total gain 10lbs but most most in my first trimester..needed alll those carbs to help me with my sickness.
Haven't felt the baby move too often, just a little here and there. Thought I will feel stronger movements since this is my 4th. Have my level 2 next week and am super excited to see my little one.

18 weeks today and I always forget I'm pregnant. I felt flutters a few weeks ago, but nothing since. I'm so anxious to feel him so I know he's okay in there!!!

Hi!! 19 weeks 3 days today and feeling good!! Since I was a little overweight to begin with I haven't actually gained but maybe a pound or two so far. I go for my level 2 on thursday and am super excited although we are staying

My 22.5 month old keeps me on my toes. like today when i was at the Dr getting a Makena (progesterone) shot. we were in the waiting room and he decided to throw up ALL OVER!! I was so embarrassed in addition to trying to keep my own breakfast in after seeing and smelling it!! Add to that the fact that i left his diaper bag in the car so he was shirtless for my appointment!!

We're just about halfway through ladies. now is when the fun part of getting kicked and punched starts to be more regular! I cant wait!!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

So glad to be halfway there.

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

we are 20w tomorrow

i have my second level II on 9/11. From then on, we begin weekly monitoring for anemia. I really hope we don't get to the point of intrauterine transfusions or early delivery but we are taking it one day at a time!

feeling DD move a ton more this week. Also feeling pretty good besides the stomach/digestive issues. Last night was rough, in and out of the bathroom all night Didn't have this when I was pregnant with my son.

Hope everyone is feeling well! Can't believe we are halfway!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

I have my level 2 on 9/11...can't wait to find out what we are having.

I havent felt much baby movement but I did notice this weekend that baby moved from the left side into the middle... and I am definitely having some growing pains.

Still have only a very little bump and it is hard to tell that I'm pregnant... Also at 20 weeks I am still in my regular clothes. I guess I shouldn't complain.

I can't wait to hear more about what everyone is having

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

Had my 20 week sono today and I am officially team

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

had my second level II today, STILL a girl

everything looks good, no anemia yet! have to have a fetal ecchocardiogram at 22w and then back to OB at 24w for glucose test and another MCA ultrasound (to watch for anemia.)

As long as my antibody titers stay below 1:16, we should be OK. Doc said that if my titers hit critical or MCA sonograms show anemia, they will deliver between 34-36 weeks.

Oh, baby weighed 13oz today!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

I had my follow up yesterday. I am 23 weeks today. Doctor said the heart beat was 152. My next appointment in 4 weeks we are going to discuss the hospital tour, birthing classes, and blood cord banking. I was fully showing at this point. I feel DS a lot throughout the day now. I hope everyone else is doing well!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

BUMP!

how is everyone?

22.5 weeks here and feeling good for the most part! +5-6lbs

i have been having some knee pain and i "think" some SPD pain hurts like a biotch when I get up from sitting too long. I am carrying low this time so maybe its just added pressure as the baby grows?

i have my glucose test next Thursday and another sono for hemolytic disease (anemia in the baby). She is moving like CRAZY and I am already feeling hiccups

we have begun the nursery and i am in the process of picking bedding - cannot find anything I LOVE that isnt a million $$$$s.

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

I'm doing well.... 23 weeks and so excited for baby

I was put on Lovenox last week due to some prior health conditions. Not bad but def have some bruises.

I had my GD test last week and I passed thank goodness

I am now into every other week appts due to the lovenox and having a short cervix...but at least I get to see every time.

Today we went for a fetal echo to make sure there was no hole in his heart and everything looked good ...so he is doing good...mommy just needs to get herself in better condition

Hope everyone is having a great pregnancy

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

I'm 25 weeks and feeling big. Probably because I've gained 30 lbs. I go in three weeks for the GD test.

Hope everyone is feeling good!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

Howdy Mamas!!
22 weeks here and feeling great. up 10 pounds. Today my has been moving a lot and I'm already so In Love..

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

24 Weeks, up 20 lbs! Hoping I can get through these last 14 to 16 weeks only gaining 15 more lbs, but I'm going to try not to stress about it. LO is doing good, healthy, kicking up a storm so I'm happy!

Re: Official JANUARY 2013 Mommy to be Thread!

I can't believe I'm already 23 wks. I've gained about 14 pounds, but lately I have zero appetite. LO is moving quite a bit. She's so active. Overall, I feel good...just tired after my almost 2 hour commute everyday.
