Since Mar has left our ranks, I thought I could start to post these. Feel free to let me know if anyone else wants to do it.
So how are things going this week for all the pregnant mommas to be?
I heart Ben!!

Re: PG Check-in
Morning sickness is beginning to rear its ugly head...or should I say night sickness? I will be fine all day and then around 7pm every night it shows up. I'm praying it goes away soon. I already have a decreased appetite throughout the day so skipping dinner due to nausea isn't good right now. Rusty's been so patient, bless him!
I have my eight-week appointment next Wednesday and we'll get to hear the heart beat and see how much baby has grown since we went a couple weeks ago. I can't wait!
It's kind of strange to be a part of this check-in...it's still so surreal!
Sorry about the MS Autumn. It still feels surreal for me when I post here!
I am half way there this week, half baked!! (Ben thinks that is funny to say that since we are so not pot heads). Pumpkin is moving all the time, especially during our doctors appointment last week when he would kick and run away from the doppler. I go back on Friday for a rescan for my anatomy scan to check two things. I could really use some prayers/vibes/thoughts that everything is all clear with my little guy.
Besides that, just starting to gather fabric for the nursery as we continue to clear out the room. We are kind of at a stopping point until my parents come down to help us move stuff out.

I will keep you in my T&P! I can't wait to get to the point where we're decorating the nursery...I love that kind of thing.
And I can't believe you are half-way there!! Time really does fly, doesn't it?
T&Ps on the way to you and your little man Whit.
Doing good here. Have had some discomfort the last couple days with stretching pains and the baby laying on some ligaments or something. My little boy is still very active and has found it to be entertaining to kick me when and where I least expect it. He will be very active for a couple days then will have a quiet day or two then is real active again. I hate the inactive days. I know he's fine and it's normal but it's so reassuring to feel him moving. He tends to not move when DH tries to feel for it. Hopefully that will change soon. DH has only felt and seen movement a couple times so far.
I got for my 24 week appt on Thursday.
Autumn - I had my nausea at night too, dinner was a no-go for awhile. Whit - I think I missed the boy announcement! Congratulations (gosh, where was I, do I just not remember?? doh!)
Doing well. I promised a picture, but dh took the memory card and he was gone all weekend through today. I have my photo shoot for a 2012 baby belly calendar tonight and I get to be a pumpkin, so I guess I'm either October or November - I'll share those when I get them too.
I've still been doing some home remedies to get the baby to flip, but I feel so guilty because maybe there is a reason it isn't flipping, maybe I'm not supposed to experience labor, maybe I'm supposed to have a scheduled c-section (I'm really afraid that if it flips the cord will wrap around its neck and I wont know something is wrong and it wont make it.) This is so morbid, I guess I'm starting to mom-worry. I would like to go to a chiropractor for a pelvis adjustment before birth too, but I haven't been able to call. It's like I'm telling myself "you're almost there, don't f*ck it up" lol.

Autumn- sorry about the ms.
Whit- T&Ps heading your way.
Jen- I think you are just starting to have the normal mom worries. The whole labor process is enough to freak out about. As long as you and the baby are healthy it doesn't really matter how "he" comes into the world.

I can see myself thinking the exact same way. When's the cutoff for the baby to flip before they'll just schedule a c-section?

One more nighttime MS nestie here. It was somewhat a blessing I suppose because during the day as long as I kept eating small snacks I was good and could function pretty well at work. I will add that once the MS subsided evening was when my Migraines started to hit, just in case so you are prepared, I had tylenol available.
Doing okay, I have to admit I am really surprised by how much this baby is beating me up. It hurts a LOT. I keep thinking it must not have enough space, I mean I still have 2 months left how bad is this going to get, when I am at home and in just the right position I love it but more often than not it takes my breath away. LOL
We are starting the nursery this weekend and I will update everyone with pics and be bugging you for suggestions often.
