@Dandelion: oh wow! You make big babies. I'm pretty sure with my figure and birth weight my babes will be cinder blocks.

@anonysquire: I'm only 5'1! Probably why S got stuck, lol. DH is kind of small, too, so it's crazy that my babies get so big. Both previous babies were a case of undetected GD (found out too late with DS, thought I passed the test with S (but apparently didn't)), so this time I'm taking the test early and I've been eating like I have GD since I found out I was pregnant.

@Dandelion: oh my that's a good size baby! A was 6lb9oz at 39 weeks. My sister had HUGE babies and she is itty bitty so it's definitely not always related to size of the mom.

@Dandelion: you are tiny! I hope my so called birthing hips help if my babies are big. I should probably be eating as if I hav gd I'm eating crappy. Is your test the orange drink one?

@anonysquire: Yep. At the birth center they had me eat a sandwich with whole wheat bread and cheese, a small apple and some juice. Apparently it's not exactly accurate. I'm happy for the sugar water test instead. It's gross, but I think it's more accurate.

@Dandelion: ya my birth center said a meal as well. Do you think I could request the orange drink instead?

I probably should have. But your birth center is probably more reaponsible than mine was. You will prob be fine.

Had our appointment on Friday! In addition to the heartbeat we could also hear the baby moving around (sounded like little swishes) - so cool and he said baby was very active Hopefully that means I will feel it moving soon!! Anatomy scan is set for the 8th - we're so excited to find out what baby is!
How far along are you: 16 weeks
Heartbeat: 164
Weight gained so far: Zero, but very noticeable bump! Doctor says he's not worried and all looks well.

Just had my anatomy scan today. The baby had all parts and all organs. Don't worry, I asked several times. It is so weird to think that the ultrasound tech is the only one in the world who knows our babies gender. Ahhhhh it's still killing me.
So far I have gained 6 pounds, the heartrate was 130. I have not felt any kicks yet I don't think. I don't know? And they moved my due date up 3 days.
My next appointment is November 25!

@anonysquire: wooohoo!! so exciting!
I had my midwife appointment this week. They just went over my anatomy scan and said everything looked great. They aren't changing my due date even though he measured ahead by a few days on every measurement, and a week ahead for his legs! They measured my uterus for the first time at this appointment, and I was a week ahead there too.. I think baby might be a bit big?? Hard to tell at this point.
I've gained 7lbs according to their scale. Eek..

We had our anatomy scan yesterday. Our little GIRL is measuring a week ahead, and everything looks great. Her heartbeat was 148, and I'm up about 11 pounds at 19 weeks. So many of you doing so well on weight gain. I've been pretty good overall, but hit the Halloween candy more than I should've
