Re: Bump updates?

  • I'm all bloat right now, and nothing really significant looking at all, so there's not much point in me posting a picture yet.

    I'm 9-ish weeks, depending on whether you go from O day or LMP.   I've got my prenatal physical today.  The nurse said at my first appointment that we might be able to hear the HB today, but I realize it might still be early.

    First U/S is Oct 14th (equiv of NT scan up here) and I can't wait.

    I'm feeling really good.  No m/s to speak of.  Mostly just sore boobs and exhaustion.  I did order this as a way of coming out at work.  I'll be 14 weeks then, if I can hold out that long!!

    I think these were about 24-25 ish weeks (I honestly can't remember!)
    Sorry they are the blurry bathroom phone pics, it just haapens to be when I remember to take them.

    I'm still feeling ok. My back has been hurting pretty bad lately but I know that's pretty normal. I go back on 10/17 and then my appts go to every 2 weeks instead of 4. Yikes! Only 15 more weeks to and they are planning on inducing a week early (dr thinks I will be out of room for her to grow pretty quick) so I gues it's technically only 14 more weeks.

  • raynes - glad you're feeling well and GL today!

    charity - if you can, try to get yourself a prenatal massage. I was going almost weekly near the end, it was heaven.

  • Charity* I 2nd the massage.

    I'm wondering if Sikes and Sweetpea are missing since babies are here? I tried stalking the sept. 2011 bump board, but I didn't see anything there either. Hopefully everything is going well.

    Raynes* glad to hear you're feeling good.

  • Raynes- That shirt is adorable!

    Charity- I can't believe she will be here before long. We need some updated pics of nursey and anything else cute! I know to you its probable dragging by but it seems like it was just the other day you told us you were expecting.

  • Thank you for the idea on the massage, I'll have to look into that, it sounds amazing!

    Her closet is getting "remodeled" today while I'm at work. She is getting more hanging space and more shelfs. I can't wait to see it when I get home. J is stopping to get the paint for her room tonight and I just got her custom quilt off Etsy the other day. It's all coming together so fast. I will post pics asap! I can't wait to see how it all looks.

    Good call. I don't know why I thought September.

  • Well, back from the doc (still just my GP) and she said everything seems on track.  We tried for the HB but couldn't pick it up.  She should she heard a "snippet" for a second, but she said it's moving around so much right now it's tough.  Oh well!  I *may* be looking into buying a doppler off of Kijiji.

  • I'm here, I'm here! I'm doing well. Physically, I'm so ready. Emotionally, not as much. I'm super excited, but I know life is going to change forever, so I am trying to just enjoy the next few weeks with DH. Our house renovations are done, so now it's just washing baby clothes and stuff like that. I haven't taken a bump pic in over a month. I probably should do that soon. I'll post one when I do.

    I'm going to text Mandee when the baby's born, so you ladies will know! People keep telling me I've dropped, so I think he's low and he is head down. My dr doesn't start doing cervical checks until 38 weeks, so not sure where I'm at there, but no signs of labor yet. I can't believe it's so soon!

    yay! So soon! Don't worry. Life doesn't change all that much if you don't let it. Our game nights just slowed down for bottles and bed times.

  • Sikes - glad you stoppped in! I'm super excited to meet your little man.

    When you have some *spare* time, I'd love to see some before and afters of the house if you have them.

  • I just wanted to say that I love hearing these updates!
  • Raynes - that shirt is awesome! Glad everything is going well!

    Charity - 15 weeks?? Wow that's going to go so fast!

    Tara - four weeks left! Can't wait to see your baby!

    And where's Erinn?

  • I guess I'll use this post as my way to 'come out' to you ladies.

    I'm just over 10 weeks but we are keeping it VERY low key and I was afraid someone would find this on the internet.  We aren't even telling family until 12-13 weeks and no ticker or anything yet.  I'm going to hold off on work for as long as possible.

    I've been feeling pretty good.  Sore boobs and random devastating exhaustion.  I wouldn't say I have morning sickness but I definitely have times where I'm not sure if I want to eat or puke and not sure what I want to eat.  No bump yet, just bloat.

    I've managed to keep up my working out and have run a 10 mile and 5 mile race since my BFP.  This weekend (or Monday) I'm going to try another 10 mile casual run and decide whether I want to attempt the Detroit half marathon in 4 weeks. 

    Wednesday I have my first OB appointment and I hope he will try to find (and be successful) at finding the hb and I hope he won't have a problem setting me up with our equivalent of the NT scan since I really want to have a u/s to make sure everything is good in there.
