Lets have some bumps and babies up in here, shall we?  AW your pregnancy and squishes!

[MauiBliss]

Hai, Gorgeous!!!!!!



I'm 31+4 now with a baby shower this weekend back in Arizona. Things are starting to get a little scary over here with how little time we have left and yet it feels like we still have so long until we get to meet Spawn Raptor.



Attached is my bump from last week.

Hey everyone! It's DarcyHermione! I didn't want to have the same name as the Voldemort board so I changed it.

I'm 15w6d and doing great! My birthday was yesterday and we had our 16 week OB visit. I don't know if you remember our last OB visit, but we had some doppler drama that made us have an urgent ultrasound. Well, apparently the OB nurse doing my visit yesterday is a magical fairy because she took one look at me and said, "oh, I know where baby is hiding" and found the heartbeat in under 30 seconds. Seriously magical. So Baby is still super active and was apparently moving around. My uterus is still hanging out in my pelvic area which explains my constant peeing. Baby really is doing jumping jacks on my bladder, I was totally kidding about that before, but nope it's true. I've also developed a not so great symptom which I mentioned in another thread explosive diarrhea, but I think it was because baby decided it no longer liked jalapenos. Sad day. I was enjoying that craving. My next visit is 3 weeks from yesterday and we will be having our A/S and may be able to find out the sex then! I can't wait to see Baby again and maybe start calling him/her by their name.

I'm still creepy lurking, even more now we are here. Since I'm IP banned I won't be coming back to Voldemort board at any point so I hope we can all hang out here. I hope to see lots more BFPs and I'm always rooting for you all!

No bump pic today due to me being lazy.

Hi guys,I'm at 5w5d! I had betas done last week, they were 92, 227 and 557! I made an appointment to see my RE on Feb 3, I'm nervous and excited. Symptoms are pretty easy so far. I'm tired a lot and quickly, I go between being really hungry and not wanting anything. I'm also super moody, I'll be laughing then crying within seconds of each other. No nausea, sore boobs or cramping though!

My biggest fear of getting pregnant is having a baby that won't tolerate spicy food because I adore spicy food!

Congrats snakefisherbub!!

I'm 21 weeks tomorrow and still feeling exhausted. Besides that, all is well. I had my a/s last week and the little monster didn't want to cooperate. Found out everything is where it should be and we decided to be team green again with this LO. I did see my GP yesterday and she is running some lab work for my iron levels, thyroid and a couple of other things as I'm starting to get cankles and I was looking a little pale. She's not concerned but just to check. I also finally heard from an OB and will meet her in about 5 weeks.

Always still lurking here (and at the place that shall not be named) and giving love tits and support when I can. You ladies rock and I'm always rooting for you!

The sad thing is I was craving spicy food for 2 weeks and now it's like "nope"! Maybe it will come back again.

Hi GKU! Is that what we call this board now? LMK. Anyway, I've been keeping an eye over here and I'm glad to see so many made the switch. I miss you all and I don't know what I'd have done if people stayed on the dump.

AFM, I'm 27w4d today, and I've begun getting, "Not until April?!" comments for weeks already. Sigh.

Not a whole lot to report at the moment - I have my GD test and a pap tomorrow morning, so that'll be a crap morning, but tomorrow night we tour L&D, so hopefully that'll end the day on a better note. The tour will definitely come in handy, because at the moment I don't even know where the hospital is located.

I have no bump picture today because I'm on zero sleep with a sick kiddo and I don't actually know how to post a picture here yet. I don't do well with change.

Hello, my dears!

Alex will be 16 weeks on Friday. He is constantly growing and changing, and I fear that he's starting to teethe. He drools like crazy and has his fingers (or a toy, or my hair, or whatever else he can get his paws on) in his mouth constantly.

Also, tomorrow is the one-year anniversary of my BFP. I cannot believe it's been a year. Time flies.

I am obsessed with his chunky little baby feet, so I thought I'd share them this week:



So glad to see so many of my faves over here, and I'm rooting for more BFPs soon! XO!

Hi everyone. I kinda had the rug pulled out from under me at my last appointment. My blood pressure was up for me so we are watching it. My gestational diabetes 3 hour was high (but yet it's taken 4 weeks from when I took the 3 hour for the OB to look at the results and get me into the mfm) AND I'm measuring only 28 weeks when I should have measured 31.5. I'm 33 weeks today. I'm a bit worried because GD should make me measure ahead not behind and I had IUGR with my son. That ultrasound is Friday.

So until then I eat the best I can and wait.

[queenofcats]

Big hugs, BBNut!

Yay! That nurse must know her stuff!  Just break up with every other one in that office.  So excited for you to find out what your squish is! Are you taking predictions??





I'm making a guess anyway. I say....GIRL!

Hi, lovelies!

I'm 7 weeks today and have my dating ultrasound tomorrow. I declined betas this time so this will be our first indication of whether things are progressing well or not. I'm freaking the fuck out but will have answers in less than 24 hours.

Good Luck, can't wait to hear how your u/s goes!

[queenofcats]

For @whitney. This is from yesterday. I forgot I did take one before my appointment. Ignore dirty floor and mirror.

Ugh, I hate those comments.  I was right around where you were with my last DD and I went into 7-11 to get my morning snack and some jerkwad goes, "Man, you're HUGE!  When are you due?"  Always nice to be called huge before 8 in the morning.

Hope your DS gets feeling better Rexy!!

Sorry to hear this. Take care of yourself and good luck on Friday!!

Umm, Hi guys! This is weird! 4 weeks and 1 day here. Really not much to say yet but I called and made my first appointment for this Friday. The receptionist on the phone asked me how I knew I was pregnant and it took everything for me not to ask her how people respond besides taking a HPT.

We ended up having to tell my parents earlier than expected. Several people at work noticed I wasn't guzzling coffee like normal and started asking around if I was pregnant, (nosy bitches). We didn't want my parents to hear through gossip so we went last night and they were both crying. My Mom went and got a $5 that my Dad wrote on before we got married with his guess of when we would tell them we were expecting. He put down 1/28/2015 so he was close.

I'm still lurking the fuck out of this place!

I'll take predictions! Many people I've talked to say "Girl", but yesterday I got a strong feeling for "Boy", so we'll see!

[happyfeet]

Hiya! E is 5.5 months old. She's sitting on her own all the time now and playing with her toys relatively independently, which is pretty neat. She also has learned the art of manipulation and tantrums. Loves to throw fits until she gets what she wants and then starts giggling, I have nooooo idea where she gets her atitude from.... Also, she's super tall, we're already in 9 month clothes, which is definitely all H. Things are pretty amazing though, every day is something new and exciting. So glad to see so many familiar faces over here! Keeping all my crossables crossed for many more BFPs.
