@luckypenny: Great list! You're way more organized than I could be about it!
-
@luckypenny: I love it! One quick correction: on 4/19, you left the "t" out of tbuzz. Otherwise, looks awesome!
-
@LovelyPlum: *fixed!* okay great! Totally ripped off you appointment board list lol
-
@luckypenny: that was an excellent call. Love it!
-
@jhd:
hope it's just a passing thing@luckypenny: looks good!
Hope everyone's having a great weekend!
-
@luckypenny: my doctor says my due date is actually 4/19--4/18 is what the internet calculator said based on lmp. it's pretty much the same thing though!
-
@nana87: That doesn't matter...you probably won't have her on either day anyways, lol.
-
I'm at the halfway mark! 20 weeks down, 20 to go! Now that I know what my baby is, I'm ready for him to come...but not really, cause I want him on time.
I still want that fast forward button lol.
-
@Dandelion: haha exactly! I'm sure neither day will be right! Congrats on making it to the halfway point!!! So, so exciting!
-
I finally announced on Facebook on Friday afternoon, after finding out it was a boy. I was pretty good at keeping it quiet, because I really surprised a lot of people. Everyone only had happy things to say (well, of course!)
I was worried that people would make comments about the loss and this baby, but no one has, (except that old lady at my parents church) so maybe I was just a little paranoid about it all.
-
@Dandelion: Glad you got it out there and that everyone is being supportive!
Helath-wise, this week isn't going any better than the last it seems. I had a leg cramp on Saturday morning that woke me up, and I am still sore. I can walk up steps, but down I am very slow and I limp. I also have a big red spot next to my right eye. I used Visine this morning, so not sure if I broke out or what. Plus my face is SUPER red, but my chin looks burnt orange, like got an awful cheap spray tan, lol.
This all makes me happy to know whether I am having a boy or girl next week, so I can use its full name to yell at it, lol.
-
@megz06: Aww man you just can't catch a break! I'm sorry
Hope you start feeling better soon lady!@Dandelion: Yay for being "out"!
-
We had our sonogram today. We are having a BOY!! He's active and healthy. Now on to names. We have not been able to agree and decided to table it until we knew for sure. I think we both have a little gender disappointment, but now that I can shop I'm sure I will get over it.
I don't know how you team greeners do it!
-
I'm a few weeks behind most of you, but I feel movement! So cool!
-
@tbuzz: HOORAY for a boy!!
@PEAPIE: Isn't it the best feeling??
-
@tbuzz: congrats on your boy & good luck choosing a name! shopping will also be lots of fun!
@PEAPIE: isn't it the coolest? i can't wait to start feeling the baby move more regularly.
-
@tbuzz: yay for a boy! I had disappointment for a couple hours but I'm over it now. Mine stemmed from a deeper issue with my loss last year but I've since snapped out of it and now I just can't wait to meet my little boy!
-
@Dandelion: hooray for halfway! And that is so fun that you are finally out. I'm glad it went well
@megz06:
I'm sorry, lady. I hope that you catch a break soon. I'm not feeling so hot this week, either. My glands are completely swollen, and I had horrible cramps all weekend. Looks like I came down with both a head cold and the stomach virus going around at the same time. So naturally, my worried self hauled butt to the doctor's today, but I'm glad I did. After how crappy I felt all weekend, it was great to hear the heartbeat again!@tbuzz: CONGRATULATIONS! That is really exciting!
@PEAPIE: hooray, how fun! I only feel it every so often. It is really, really fun!
-
@tbuzz: Congrats on your boy!!!!
@LovelyPlum: It sucks to be sick. I've been blessed not to have had a cold in over 2 years. And stomach virus? Yuck. No thanks, but hearing the heartbeat again would have been cool!
-
@tbuzz: hooray for a boy!!
@PEAPIE: I'm jealous, I'm at like 18w4d and still haven't felt any movement! sometimes my stomach is growly, but I really think it's just my digestive system, and I can feel my pulse more strongly in my stomach sometimes too, but it matches my pulse in my neck so it's my own blood pumping, not the little miss. Uggggh I want to feel her noooooowwwww! My doctor said it sometimes takes until the 20 week mark to feel anything so I'm tryign not to wrory that I haven't felt her yet...trying at least...!
@megz06: and @LovelyPlum: sorry you gals have been feeling crummy!
-
@nana87: Yeah, don't worry! You'll feel it soon! I was very skeptical because I've felt my heartbeat in my belly too- I think because of the extra blood flow to the area. But this was definitely baby brushing up against me- you be able to tell the difference! It's a little bit stronger feeling and not as rhythmic.
-
@LovelyPlum: Aw poor thing! Take it easy and feel better! I have a nasty cold too right now. No fun.
@megz06: Nooooo! Don't say it! I haven't had a cold in a couple years too, and I caught one a few days ago! Don't jinx yourself lady!
-
@PEAPIE: aww how sweet! I can't wait to feel that!!
Has anyone's SO done anything particularly sweet for them lately? I need to brag for a minute: dh went to a department store this morning and I asked him to see while he was there if they had a maternity section. On his own volition, he also called a different department store to check there for me too! Such a little thing, but above and beyond what i'd asked him to do, made me feel lucky
-
I'm still sick
DH is starting to worry its bronchitis. It hasn't gotten better/worse in days so I think I have to call the doc. It will be one week tomorrow that symptoms started. @nana87: aww! What a sweet DH
it's our 2 year anniversary today. We already exchanged gifts and I think we will just do dinner/movie this weekend.
-
@luckypenny: happy anniversary!!
-
@megz06: @nana87: @PEAPIE: thanks ladies. I feel like all I do is post "I'm sick"...sorry about that. Today is better, but I cannot wait for this weekend, where all I am going to do is SLEEP (and, you know, write a paper, but whatev
)@nana87: so sweet! DH has been cute the last few nights. I've had to stay up working, so I've brought my computer into bed and worked while he slept. I love it, because he'll put his hand on my back and fall asleep that way. Melts my heart every time
@luckypenny: happy anniversary! I'm so sorry you're sick. Bronchitis is the absolute worst-I have had it a few times, and it's really nasty stuff. I hope you can get some relief soon.
In other news, I just had a friend deliver her baby 3 weeks early, and I'm freaking out a little. I'm mentally preparing myself for this baby to be late, because I know many FTMs are late. But early?? I'm not ready for that possibility. Aah!
-
@LovelyPlum: I feel like all I do is complain about not feeling good either. I'm glad but not glad that I have someone to commiserate with, lol.
-
Votes are in at school! 3 out of 5 classes picked boy! We'll see tomorrow who is correct!!!
-
@jhd: that is adorable! and so exciting to find out so soon!! also, I love French. I know enough to have passed a translation exam for one of my phd requirements, but I wish I could actually speak it instead of fudge it
-
@luckypenny: Sorry I am lazy on this thread, but I am team PINK! So excited since LO is a boy and I really wanted a girl!
-
@tbuzz: Congrats on the boy! I was a little (lot) disappointed with LO #1 when I found out he was a boy, but they really are the best. He lights up my world!
-
@luckypenny: @LovelyPlum: @nana87: @megz06: @Amelieisme: @Dandelion: Thanks ladies! We're over the disappointment and consider ourselves blessed either way. Ready to start shopping and planning the nursery.
-
@nana87: thanks!
it was fun!
@Amelieisme: congrats on your girl!
@luckypenny: happy anniversary!
@megz06: @LovelyPlum: hope you ladies feel better!!! -
@Amelieisme: hooray for a girl!!
-
Anyone else freak out when they dont' feel alot of movement for a couple of days? Baby was so active last week and then not so much this week. really messing with my head the little bugger.
-
@Amelieisme: congrats on a girl!!
-
@jhd: @luckypenny: @nana87: Thanks ladies! We are super excited
-
@megz06: we get it lady, no worries. Hopefully it will turn around soon!
@jhd: I love that! Can't wait to hear who was right. Also, yay for French! I'm also studying it for my PhD language exam, but man, is my French bad. I think I should take a trip to Paris to brush up
@Amelieisme: congrats on your girl!
@tbuzz: nothing like a little retail therapy to make a girl happy
@NY_Smiles: not freak out, per se, but I do notice that I have long stretches where I don't feel baby move. What it really does is lull me into forgetting that the baby will eventually kick, and when he/she does, it takes me by surprise. Last night, I got a kick in the middle of class, and it scared the crap out of me!
Good news of the day: I'm 20 weeks today! Officially halfway there, woo hoo! Now, if I could only find some of that magical second trimester energy that people keep talking about, we'd be golden
-
@luckypenny: Oh man, I hope it's not bronchitis! I got a cold this past weekend and I'm still stuffy and have a really gross cough... Just hoping no bronchitis for both of us!
-
@LovelyPlum: Happy 20 Weeks!!!
hope it's just a passing thing
