@littlek: CUTE bump!!!! And I love that color on you!
@Adira: hey that body birthed an adorable little guy and got you knocked up again pretty quickly so be proud mama!
I don't have makeup on yet this morning but I'll post my bloat pic later today. I'm definitely rocking the belly band with all my pants. I start off okay in the mornings but I look 16 weeks pregnant by the end of the day. DH knows not to say anything when he gets home and I'm already in my sweats

@Mama Bird: I'm so sorry.
@sandy: Get used to rocking the sweats! Since having Xander, I have NEVER come home from work and not immediately changed into mine!!!

@Mama Bird: So sorry
There will be no visible bumps here for quite awhile probably. I was already quite chunky before baby lol. Though I did leave my pants unbuttoned yesterday while doing things around the house. lol

I'm really paranoid today. Morning sickness has disappeared... Got me worrying (which I know is silly but I can't help it). This whole pregnancy thing is one worry after another

@Mrs.Lilac: Maybe it's just the change of scenery, or the fact that you're happy & relaxed on vacation! I know how you feel... My lack of symptoms make me feel like the seed isn't growing! We just need to have faith & carry on until we can get an u/s! Hugs

@Mrs.Lilac: Mine has too but I found out why I had it in the first place. I take my pnv at bedtime (and despite eating snacks before bed), I was nauseous all night & the following morning. I have to take them dinner now so I have a really full stomach (or I fall back on my Flintstones if I completely forget to take it....better than nothing I guess) Still have sore boobs & gassy though. LOL

@Mrs.Lilac: I feel like mine kind of came and went the first time around, so try not to worry too much!

@Mrs.Lilac: I had no morning sickness with my first pregnancy. I don't think morning sickness really kicks in till 6 weeks.

Sorry I've been MIA the last few days girls! Having a very busy week and I'm feeling SO sick too It's been so hard to deal with the m/s with a toddler bouncing off the walls and needing to be fed when omg I can hardly look at food. I'm only 6 weeks so I'm expecting it to get so much worse too! Sorry - I know we're all going through the same thing I'm just having a rough day. I have to work overnight tonight too so it's definitely contributing to my bad attitude today. I keep trying to remind myself that it's all for a good cause!

I know it's totally silly. It's just strange to be throwing up one day and then feel like a different person the next! I guess I need to be thankful. Thanks again ladies for the reassurance. Xx

@MrsD: Congrats and welcome! You need to post a few times before you are allowed to post a pic.
wonderful kiwi / 23653 posts
@MrsF: awww hugs! I hope m/s goes away soon!
@MrsD: welcome!
pomegranate / 3045 posts
@MrsF: Ugh, sorry about your m/s I can't imagine dealing with that and a toddler!! Hang in there.
@Mrs.Lilac: I'm sure everything is fine It was probably so bad before just because you were on the plane, etc. As other people have mentioned, I think symptoms tend to ebb and flow.
How's everyone doing? I am still feeling pretty nauseous when I wake up at night/first thing in the morning, but it doesn't stick around too long, thankfully. Once I get some food in me, I'm good. My first u/s still isn't for two weeks, so I'm nervous!

@MrsD: Congratulations and welcome!!
@theotherstark: I'm feeling good, but only 4 weeks, so I don't expect to feel anything yet. AF is OFFICIALLY LATE so I'm feeling like this is actually real now, haha. Telling my BFF tomorrow!!! Also - bloating - no fun.
ETA: Also, thanks for keeping the list up-to-date! I LOVE that calendar, but you need to turn off spell-check.
pomegranate / 3045 posts
@Adira: Haha! Shoot, I remembered last time but totally had a mind-fart this time. Thanks! It's all fixed
Man, I've been super bloated too. It doesn't help that I've been fairly constipated. Ugh. Is it horrible that I'm already using the hairband trick to do my buttons? Haha. And YAY for AF being officially late!
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@theotherstark: I think being constipated is pretty normal - I remember that last time. I used to eat Fiber One bars for snacks all day long last pregnancy! And when I finally gave birth and wasn't constipated anymore, it was such a relief! And I'm wearing a belly band, so don't worry! Although, admittedly, I've been wearing it this whole time postpartum because I'm a fatty who can't fit in her jeans.

@winniebee: We have 3 spring 2012 mamas in this group! You, me and @MsMini

EDD: 12/22/14 (based on ovulation)
When Did You Find Out?: 4/9 (yesterday -- 9DPO)
Child Number: 2 (My son will be 2 in a month!?!?!)
Where do you live?: Currently, Taos NM. We are here for the year (ending August 1) and moving to Portland, Maine thereafter.
What kind of provider will you see?: In Taos, I will be going to a combo OB/midwife practice. I haven't researched anything in Portland, yet.
When's Your First Appointment?: 4/24 (meet and greet with midwife, probably blood draw and possible scheduling of ultrasound and possible referral to perinatologist)
What kind of birth do you want?: Same as last time. Get the baby out quickly and safely. I had an epidural and vaginal birth last time and want the same this go round if possible.
What You're Most Excited For: Getting to see my son as a big brother!!!
What You're Most Scared About: Being on bed rest again. With my son, I went into preterm labor at 30 weeks and was on bedrest until 37.5 weeks. More immediately, I'm a little nervous about a chemical pregnancy. I had an early miscarriage before my son and feel like I paid my dues and will be upset if this does not stick.
Symptoms so far: Cramping (tipped me off at 8 DPO), restless sleeping, eating buffalo chicken something or other since 5 DPO, no lie.
Post a picture... any picture!
Here is a photo montage of the FRERs I have taken. Top is 9 DPO with afternoon pee hold (over 2 hours) and the bottom is 10 DPO with SMU. No, I'm not going to stop testing until that line gets a little darker. Probably will take a digital this weekend just to see the lovely word "Pregnant"
hostess / wonderful grape / 20803 posts
My photos are enormous, LOL.
And there are already 14 pages to this thread. How the heck am I going to catch up!?
hostess / wonderful grape / 20803 posts
@littlek: @Adira: I know it's really not possible....but I'm already popping out a little. I lost all of my baby weight awhile ago....my uterus is already sticking out a little. Horrifying, since I showed early with T!
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@winniebee: nothing wrong with that... i'm still testing... I got one of those fancy digitals that estimates weeks.. I like saying it change how many weeks I am every week. Hopefully, we will both have easy pregnancies, I think we put in our dues last time.
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@winniebee: I told you I already popped the other day.. it's scary!!!
pomegranate / 3045 posts
@winniebee: Wooohooo welcome! And congrats again. I definitely hope that you can avoid bed rest this time! That sounds really frustrating.
Just updated the list above to include you
grape / 88 posts
@theotherstark: Don't feel bad, I'm doing the hairband trick thing too! My shirt wasn't long enough yesterday for it, and I was so uncomfortable with buttoned pants... definitely learned my lesson. And besides, if we feel sick half the day, the least we can do is make our pants comfy! haha
So... last night I went to bed at 9, and it was the greatest thing ever. Poor hubby, all I ever do anymore is sleep..
wonderful pomelo / 30692 posts
@missybear: Ooh! I went to bed at 9:00 last night too!!! It was wonderful!!!

FYI.. I got these and highly recommend for 1st trimester.. the demi panel is perfect for 1st trimester
