    @Protectlove: There is pending legislation to legalize the licensing of DEM/CNM for home birth. There's a big home birth movement going on right now, and if I lived in a more rural area I would consider flouting the rules more. As it is, I'm hoping that this baby isn't breech, otherwise the midwife can't see me and it's an automatic c-section.

    @Redmini1: Thank you!

    So baby girl got with the program and started kicking! She was moving all around at her anatomy scan, but I couldn't feel her. Started to last night and now there have been little thumps in my belly all day Every time I feel her I fall a bit more in love. So weird!

    @Redmini1: @corilyns: thanks!!

    @daniellemybelle: found out at the anatomy scan i have an anterior placenta which maybe why i havent felt too many kicks yet

  13. daniellemybelle

    cantaloupe / 6669 posts

    @Chillybear: My placenta is posterior, but I'm heavy and I think that might have played a part. Baby girl must have had a growth spurt though because I can definitely feel her little thumps through all my fat now!

    Hey everyone! I've been quiet because I was at a work event Tuesday through today. And... BABY STARTED KICKING! Just a few times but holy crap I couldn't concentrate on anything else! Weirdest/coolest "thumps" ever. Can't wait to feel it more and more!

  15. avivoca

    watermelon / 14467 posts

    @daniellemybelle: @kjpugs: SO COOL! I'm feeling thumps here and there, I can't wait until they are more regular.

    Baby girl had a growth spurt this week! This may be TMI, but I cannot see my lady parts. Shaving in the mirror was...interesting. At least T got a kick out of it

    Is anyone else having bump envy? I'm almost 21 weeks and am currently looking at a girl who is 19 weeks and is very visably pregnant with a cute little bump. I'm really not showing at all yet. In fact, I've had multiple people tell me, or exclaim rather, that I'm so tiny! (which I have never been told in my chubby life, and kind of like in a very different way). Although I feel like I'm huge, I'm still waiting for that pop.

    And congratulations to all of Team Pink. Us Team Blue need to add more members!

    @kjpugs Isn't the movement exciting. I like to lay on my stomach and feel it kick because it's much more intense.

    @ChefAimee: Congrats on your little boy! Team Blue is rounding out nicely!

    I feel huge as well, but a lot of people keep commenting on how small I am. My husband said, "You really aren't big...are you sure you are okay?" As long as my midwife is happy, I'm happy. I'm up 10 pounds right now, and I'm sure that before long, we'll be wishing for our small 21 week bellies!

    @evansjamie: I'm up ten pounds too. I'm sure in just a few weeks we'll be thinking that. I guess it's all just perspective!

    @evansjamie: thanks for making me laugh this morning with your shaving story. I'm a nervous wreck because I have my anatomy scan in an hour. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

    watermelon / 14467 posts

    @corilyns: I'm glad I was able to make you laugh! I can't wait to hear about your anatomy scan. Fingers crossed for a smooth scan, a cooperative baby, a short wait time between the waiting room/ultrasound room, and a friendly technician!

    @kjpugs: Thanks!

    Just returned from anatomy scan and all is well! Baby looks great.
    Except DH cheated and kept his eyes open during the gender check. Now he's dying to know for sure.
    One thing, one of the kidneys is slightly enlarged. I haven't done any research on this yet and the doctor insisted that I not worry, but I will. She says these things usually work themselves out by end of pregnancy. And if not, the pediatrician will deal with it after birth. Anyone else heard of this?

  28. kjpugs

    grapefruit / 4862 posts

    @corilyns: YAY! So glad baby looked great! I haven't heard of the kidney thing but I HAVE heard of cysts that are seen and "work themselves out." I think that stuff is fairly common. You should post a thread asking about it, I bet others have had the same thing!

  29. avivoca

    @corilyns: Yay! As for the kidney, try not to worry and don't consult Google. I haven't heard of this either, but like KJ said, the hive may know more.

    Congrats in everyone finding out! We go back next week and I'm hoping the baby is cooperating. Fingers crossed! I will say baby has been having a party in my belly the last few days. It's so weird to feel, but I love it. I didn't get this last time, so baby movin around makes me feel better going into our appointment.

    Hi Ladies! Just starting on Hellobee. Due date is Oct. 6th and we're having a boy! He's been kicking and moving like crazy - it's truly amazing. Excited to 'meet' other mamas and mamas-to-be!

    @Sadieloo: welcome to the hive! We're glad to have you!

    @Jennimac: @kjpugs: I can't wait to find out what you are having!!!!

    I have to say, I am so thankful for the kindness of strangers! On our way back from the park/store, we stopped at a gas station to get some last minute items for our barbecue, and I really had to go to the bathroom. Turns out, this station doesn't have public bathrooms, but once T told her I was pregnant, she let me go in the employee bathroom! She said "I was pregnant before, when you have to go, you have to go." I'm so thankful, if it had been the guy, he would have made me go a mile down the road to the McDonalds.
