@bubblegum: Yup, here and there. No fun at all. Did you get too hungry? That's always the cause for me.

@bubblegum: I haven't. I eat a lot of snacks, mints, ginger tea, ginger chews (gin gins), etc. I am definitely a LOT better but I just started progesterone shots so that might be setting me back! I hope you feel better and it was just a fluke thing!

@psw27: I have heard ginger works miracles. I may try that! I hope it was just a one time thing too. Hopefully you don't get set back that would suck!

@bubblegum: 17 weeks. I felt DS for sure at 15 weeks and could feel tiny tickles. With this one all I've felt are bigger rolling motions and they're quite dull.

@JennyPenny: I had an anterior placenta with LO1. I can't remember when they told me, but I know with this one, they told me the placenta was posterior at the NT scan. With LO1, I felt him at 17 weeks, but he always measured 2-3 weeks ahead (he was almost 9lbs at 39 weeks).

@bubblegum: I didn't mention it to them

@lilteacherbee: They told me at NT scan that this LO is measuring a week ahead, whereas DS was always dead-on average. That's what made me think an anterior placenta is even more likely. I know every pregnancy is different, but I would have thought a bigger baby + 2nd time mom meant more movement earlier.

@psw27: Awwww!! That's horrible!!! Glad to hear I'm not the only one who cries when it happens lol I'll have to try it!! yess keep that baby cooking!

@MapleMoose: I'm preeeeeeeetty sure I've started to feel "things" happening the past two nights at bedtime. I'm hoping it really is movement....I'm so excited to feel her little kicks!

@littleblessings: We fb announced it after telling family members. DS1 told most of them, we didn't do anything crazy.

@mrsmacSLP: that's so cute!!!! And I would be SO mad at DH....I've gotten mad at him several times for eating things I was saving already!

@abbydabbydoodlebug: I totally feel you. My second pregnancy was so rough with DS1 running around. This time, I just fall asleep in the middle of doing things, lol!

@JennyPenny: Ugh....I'm not having them yet, but I had them a ton with DS2. They turned into prodromal labor several weeks before I had him, which was nooooot fun at all. I also had anterior placenta with DS2. I found out at some scan I had (it was before the anatomy one, but I didn't have a NT scan, so I'm not sure when it was!). I was told the chance of having it again is higher once you've had one, but I don't know if I have it again this time! I wish I did know though - I didn't feel DS2 until something like 22 weeks because of it. I felt DS1 at 17 weeks.

@bubblegum: @psw27: I'm sorry you guys are still dealing with throwing up!!!

So, I know it's early, but is anyone else nesting?? I don't know what's wrong with me, but the past two weekends, I have been going CRAZY cleaning the house. I cleaned inside the pantry, under all the furniture, cleaned out both boys closets, started hanging baby's clothes....it's exhausting, but I hope it keeps up for a few more weeks until my house is sparkling! lol

@littleblessings: Yes!!!! I'm glad I'm not alone....I definitely didn't nest until something like 30w with my other 2, and the spurt didn't last long lol!

@ValentineMommy: Yep! I've been sorting through my boys' clothes getting ready to sell/get rid of them. There's TONS!! My youngest is 15 months, so everything newborn-12 months has gotta go (because of course, there's already clothes piling up for little miss ) And then I find myself getting emotional over the tiny boy clothes...

@bubblegum: @psw27: Whew! I thought I was the only crazy one! I just went through my planner and planned out our weekend schedule for moving the boys into one room through the rest of the year! We're doing it in phases, so it's not a huge shock at the end (moving the dresser one weekend, closet another, the bed last, etc)

@psw27: I cleaned out the pantry too!!! Lol

@ValentineMommy: It was amazing to me how happy I felt after it was super, duper neat and all the random old stuff was purged! DH came home and was like woah! I have a longggg list of things I want to accomplish and I get nothing done on weekdays so the weekends will be intense from here on out!

Definitely feeling movement this morning! Just shy of 17 weeks and I'm feeling the thuds after I ate a bagel.

@bubblegum: I'm actually glad it's happening now, cause I never had any energy in the third trimester!

@psw27: Oh same here....weekdays are totally useless lol!

@JennyPenny: Are you re-doing a whole room for his big boy room? Ours isn't TOO much work, it's really just reorganizing and moving furniture across the hall. I'm planning on completing the transition the weekend of New Years. Then we start the work on the nursery!!!!!

@ValentineMommy: Yep, redoing a room. It's currently my office, so its actually a 2-step redo. I have to set up a space downstairs to be my office and clear everything out before I can even start making it a big boy room. But we're keeping the nursery the same, so that's easy at least.

I'm so torn about the snoogle, cause I feel like it often goes on sale, but I've seen so many mixed reviews.

Wondering what everyone else is doing to celebrate the 1/2 way point? Mine is tomorrow. Looking for something cute to post on Facebook maybe. Anatomy scan is Thursday.

@JennyPenny: I'd be all up on a list of what I need to do for your new office and big boy room!! (Im an interior designer, so I should note that I love redoing rooms!) and fwiw, the snoogle is totally worth it in my opinion, especially if you're uncomfortable at night.

@bubblegum: of course I will!!

@yellowbeach: no plans for us for the halfway point, other than officially starting on the nursery!

@ValentineMommy: Ah-ha! That explains your super swanky nursery designs and swoon worthy molding

@MapleMoose: Interesting. I feel like everyone says they feel the 2nd sooner so that's what I was finding really odd. I guess I'll just see at the anatomy scan...

Also, I'm eating potato chips at 10:30am....because I needed a snack and there was nothing else in arms reach.

@JennyPenny: I made DH go out and get me a milkshake at 10pm last night. He was not thrilled! My heartburn has started (I had awful heartburn with DS1) and milkshakes are the only thing that help! And yea....I totally scarfed a bunch of potato chips this morning lol! Oh well!

I'm totally part of the snack club. 9:30am is a fine time for Cheez-Its. No shame.

Had the anatomy ultrasound today! Baby is healthy and constantly moving. My 3 year old DD was so curious about the whole process but my 1 year old DD was more interested in her sticker book, lol. We had the tech write down the gender and seal it in an envelope without telling us. On the way home we stopped at the local bakery to order our gender reveal cake for Thanksgiving. So excited!

I have placenta previa and am now on pelvic rest. I will get an extra ultrasound around 30-32 weeks. If it doesn't correct itself then I'll require a c-section. Anyone have any experience with this?
