MARCH Mommies Checkin

How are we all doing?

Our baby girl has been A LOT more active and noticable lately. I feel her at least 1-2x a day, which I love!

I am trying to get settled here in NC and job hunt. It's discouraging, because I seem picky being pregnant and not wanting a job I will HATE!

We meet our new OB next week and excited to meet the people who will be doing the delivery.

I really need to register for stuff, maybe this weekend we will do that!

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Glad to hear your girls are doing well. I have also been feeling the occasional flutters. We are finding out the sex of our little one in Wednesday and I am counting down the hours. We are so excited! I started to register for some basics and I think this weekend we are going to try to pick out some furniture! Only a few more months! Take care!

Hello Ladies....

I'm 21 weeks and I think I felt my first kick this weekend..but I haven't felt it again..I do feel some flutters but in my opinion..not enough.

I started registering...1st attempt...we were there for 3 hours and picked 6 items

2nd attempt on Saturday and we picked most of the big stuff including the baby's furniture.

So we have our big items, next we are going to work on everything else.

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

I can feel my little constantly. It feels like heart palpitations but in my stomach. Definite movement, not actual kicks.
I'm hungry again.
Registry is almost done.
People's opinions on names suk.
People suk.
I am huge.
I need new pants.

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

I'm impressed that you got into your suit pants - I don't remember what it feels like to wear normal clothes!

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Oh I am FARRRRR past bella bands.
I need to stop eating and start excercising.
I am lazy and I love food.

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

I'm good, definitely getting bigger, I definitely feel some kicks/punches, last night I was taking laundry upstairs and must have had the clothes pressed against my stomach well this boy knocked the mess outta me, stopped me right in my tracks, it was too funny. LOL.. I am 22 weeks and just feel so big.

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Im 23 weeks today. Our little girl is kicking non-stop, especially when I go to bed and when I wake up. My mid-back is still killing me, I really can't sit for more than 10 minutes at a time. I go for my glucose test next Tuesday. I've been getting sleepy again, which is annoying because there is so much stuff I want to do. I hope everyone is doing well!!!

ETA: I haven't been able to use the bella band since 14 weeks. I am getting BIG!!! I think I might have put a little too much weight on the past 3 weeks, but my appetite is ferocious

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Good afternoon ladies! BTW, is Monday OVER yet???? So. I am 19 weeks and 5 days along and I "think" I felt flutters on the plane last week... felt like little bubbles. I have my 20 week sono next Monday and I am trying to maintain my wishes of NOT finding out the sex of the baby (yeah right, I bet I will fold like a cheap deck of cards). Doctors appointment on the 14th and I am SOOOOO dreading it!!! Last 2 months I gained 8 pounds... EACH FREAKING MONTH!! I always leave there crying. I can't handle this weight gain. I really, really can't. It's all going to my butt too. I swear I think this kid implanted there and NOT in my uterus because you can hardly tell by looking at me from the front! Aaaaarrrgh! I need a steak right now. Preferably a filet, with a big ol' baked potato (loaded of course). If I am going down, I am going down in FLAMES! Is it time to go home yet??? Hope you are all doing well!!!!

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

I am almost 22 weeks and feeling pretty good. My little guy has been pretty active and likes to kick me a lot around 10 pm - right when I'm laying down for the night.

We are leaving for San Francisco on Wed - this will probably be our last vacation for a LONG time

We are having a tough time with boy names.

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

I'm 20 weeks today and find out the sex on wednesday

I have really bad heartburn and I think acid reflux. My back has been bothering me alot also but other than that I feel really good.

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Hey all,

I'm doing well, my Hyperesmisis G. hasn't hit me too hard lately which I am thrilled with. I still am quesy all day and night, but I'll take it over being in the hospital and hooked up to pumps 20weeks 2 days and finally look pregnant! I am so thrilled over this. My is kicking and rolling a lot more these days, but still much quieter than my first daughter. We have her name picked, working in her middle name. Working on her room, got all my DD's baby clothes, toys and necessities out. Just picked up my DD#1 new furniture and DD#2 will have her old nursery suite. things are coming along quickly. We have limited time to get moving since we get a lot of visitors and am traveling a bit before she arrives. I'm due March, my DD#1 b-day is April, SIL is due May and Sister is due June! EXCITING TIME!

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

I am 19 weeks 2 days. I think I am feeling flutters, like little tickles. No kicks yet or anything that distinct.

We were supposed to go for our Level II November 12, but it got moved up because I was feeling pain and pressure all weekend and had to get a sonogram of my kidneys. We find out the results of the kidney sono tomorrow, plus the sono for Level II.

I am a little nervous, but my gut feeling is the baby is perfectly fine, I think it is something wrong with me that needs to be diagnosed or I am experiencing really bad 'growing pains'.

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Hi. Sounds like everyone is doing pretty well and enjoying their flutters!!! My is quite a mover. Ever since I felt her a couple weeks ago, she is constantly kicking, fluttering, and rolling. I love it! I'm 21W3D and have my next OB appt. tomorrow, buti t's not a big one. Next month is my 1hr glucose test. I'm getting bigger and wearing only maternity pants. I could use my bella band but at this point maternity pants are so much more comfortable!!

Right now we are in midst of attempting to pick out furniture and a stroller so that we can finally register. There is so much to consider, but we are close to deciding....finallly!

Oh, and best of all, I am off to Vegas this weekend with all my girlfriends to celebrate our 30th bdays!! It's kind of a drag to be PG in Vegas but I'm sure I'll have a blast anyway!

Take care ladies and !

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

I am a little over 19 week. Going for my Level 2 on the 15th. Can't wait! We are not finding out the gender. I will register after that which I'm also excited for. Overall I've been feeling better, but every now & then I have a bad day (heartburn throwing up, migraines, etc) Unfortunately this is one of those days. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. I have been feeling something, I'm sure it's the baby but it's hard to explain. Almost like a heaviness in the lower part of my stomach for a few seconds. I can't wait to feel a real kick

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Hi Ladies

I'm doing good, 22 weeks and 2 days, baby is moving a lot. I feel great aside from the fact that I still have insomnia. A little heartburn here and there and still can't really eat meat. I still haven't bought a single thing for this poor child, but I did enroll for Viacord. Hope you are all feeling good

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

Hello Ladies.....

I am 24 weeks pregnant today!!!!!!! I went for my check up...I have gained 4 pds since my last appt....so a total of 16 pds so far. My blood pressure is great and we were able to see the baby again too. He/She looked so big...my doctor put me on restrictions...due to the placenta previa. So no sex, no heavy lifting, rest as much as possible. They gave me the juice I have to drink to do the glucose test at my next appt which is Dec 11, 2007. I also have an appointment for a sonogram on December 10, 2007 to if the placenta has moved.

I have the information to set up child birth classes at my doctor's office.

Where are you ladies taking classes? I'm delivering at Winthrop so if you have any info regarding the classes, tours and cost please share.

That's my update...feeling good except my hands hurt like hell...you can not even imagine how many plates and cups I have broken because of my hands.

How are you??????

Re: MARCH Mommies Checkin

24 weeks here. Feeling a ton of movement.

Heartbun has been out of control.


Other wise this pregnancy agrees with me, my first was just plain awful.
