TTGP Grad Check IN

rrcraz7

Hi ladies!! Glad to see everyone is doing so well!

Not much to report here. All is going well and baby girl is becoming more and more active. I think we started having some BH contractions or uterine spasms this week (I don't know if BH and spasms are the same thing or how to tell the difference) They aren't painful just interesting.

People have started rubbing the bump. (PIC below) I don't like it. It's weird to be patted and touched. My MIL told me to get over it. I told her to respect personal space, she's pissed. Oh well!

Mchupie - congrats & welcome to the world Carina

PPC & Kerr good luck at your A/S can't wait to hear all about them!

This is the first time I can check in, since the school I work in blocked the site.  Yay for winter break. 

I am almost 18 weeks and my nausea still comes and goes.  I still am dealing with massive heartburn, but I know the positives outweigh the negatives.  We just learned last Thursday that we are expecting a little girl and we are thrilled.  This is me at 16 weeks....  

 PS- When I wore this outfit, all of my students decided to ask me if I was expecting.

I had an ultrasound done last Wednesday, which is in my siggy. Still getting the every 4 week u/s because of the fibroid even though it hasn't grown in 12 weeks.

The doctor discovered at my last u/s that I have a very mild case of placenta previa, but he expects it to resolve itself, so please send me some "Placenta, get the hell out of the way!" vibes.

DH got me a lovely Mother and Child cameo necklace for Christmas, which I've been AWing everywhere. I love cameos, and he knew I wanted something like this.

Also, in case you haven't seen it anywhere else on the Bump today, Mchupie had her baby girl this morning!! I won't share the details unless I hear from her that I can do that here, but Mommy and baby are doing well. Her husband's words were, "She pushed for 4 hours and was incredible!"

I'm sure she'll share more info when she is home and settled, and if I get the word from her in the mean time, I'll post something.

Oh yay!! I didn't know. I can't wait to see an update

I miss all of you ladies. I love this check in and all the cute bumps! Hopefully I can join you all in 2011

I forgot to take a 9 weeks pic, but here is my bump at 8 weeks.

Still feeling good, but super tired...I fell asleep at 5:30 last night!

Happy Holidays to everyone.

Hi Ladies! I'm 11 weeks on Thursday! Feeling good. NO BUMP yet. Boo.  I'm sure it will come so I am simply biding my time. I'm including an u/s pic from 9 weeks.

Hello everyone!

I am checking in for the first time.  I will be 6 weeks on Thursday and my first visit with the nurse is on Jan 6th so I will be 7 weeks (I wish it would come fast).  Not sure when the first u/s will be.  The office said that will be scheduled at the first visit. 

I have been feeling good.  No m/s and just random nausea but only when I am really hungry.  My appetite has increased so I am trying to be mindful of what I am allowing myself to eat.  I am also super bloated in the belly and my boobs are so sore.  Other than that, all is well.

We told the families over Christmas weekend and also DS who is very excited.  He just went outside to play in the snow and as he was leaving patted my stomach and said "bye baby".  He is so cute.  My mom said she has blabbed to all the co-workers that are actually in her office today.  I am sure my dad has too.

Hi ladies!  I hope you all had fantastic holidays 

Had my GD test this morning and passed with flying colors.  My next appt is in 3 weeks and then we switch to every 2 weeks. Eeek!  Amazingly I kept the weight gain in check even with the obscene amount of cookies I've eaten the past two weeks.  Hopefully that continues.

Here is a pic from yesterday - please excuse the outfit and how bad I look - it was right before I headed to the gym so I wasn't dressed up.

Great to see all you ladies, and I'm glad you are doing well! I can't wait until I can post on one of these.

My first check in! This second pregnancy is totally different then my DD, I feel like I'm in the bathroom every other minute with a full bladder, also I feel like I'm full 90% of the day even though I haven't ate anything to really fill me up.

My first appointment is Jan. 21st and I get my u/s that day as well, which is nice, I should be around 9 weeks.

Hoping to see lots of New Years BFP's in the next week!

I missed your BFP announcement!!!! Congrats

Hey Ladies!!

Doing well, m/s stopped at 11wks.  12 &16wk u/s techs (2 different ones) said it is a BOY!   I am not painting till after my anatomy scan on Jan 19th. Hopefully the LO cooperates.

I have just started to feel the baby move, it is amazing. I can't wait to see you ladies on the tri boards. Good luck this cycle and Happy New Year!!

I haven't checked-in for a few weeks, but I thought I'd offer an ultrasound picture of our little bear from a week ago. We heard the heart and saw little one for the first time, and so far so good! We are moving out of first tri and the nausea is a little more tame. It looks like baby is really kickin' back in there! Maybe next week my bump will be a little more formed

 

stephb7i

hi Ladies, I'm 6w2d today and doing pretty well. Super tired (I have been taking lots of naps ), some minor nausea, and bouts of heartburn.  looking forward to my first u/s in January.  no bump yet but I feel huge/bloated.

kelann2010

Love this day of the week!

m/s has decided to kick in mostly during the night time and I am sleeping whenever I can! (which includes a cat nap at work, but shh don't tell!) My first appt isn't until 10 weeks and I can't wait! All of you ladies look great w/ your bumps! Good luck to all of the ladies on TTGP!!

thediarywithin

I haven't checked in since right after I got my BFP. I am 22 weeks today along. I didn't have any symptoms of being pregnant except being super tired all the time. Um...update on me. Found out that it's a girl on Thursday and right before I became 21 weeks, I started to feel her kick. On Christmas eve, my husband had his head on my bump and she kicked him in the face, but haven't felt her since. We are both excited.

Good luck to those in TTGP...hopefully lots of BFP's soon.

Kestock!!! You look great! I am so impressed that you are still gym-faithful! What kind of workouts are you doing? Congrats on passing your GD test! I know that must be a huge relief! I can't believe that you are 25 weeks already!  

JenJune3

Hi girls! Well I'm 5 weeks 6 days today! I feel the morning sickness get more and more everyday! I had my first DA last Thursday and she said my cervix lookd really good for just having a LEEP done in Sept. I'm having an ultrasound next Monday to check the cervical length and get an accurate due date (pretty sure I'm due August 24th though).

Good luck to everyone! Hope you get a BFP soon!

Babydust08

Hi ladies! I'm on Winter break still so I've been super busy. Hope everyone had a great holiday. Everything is going great with our little girl. I'm feeling movement a ton lately and DH has even felt her from the outside. It's so exciting! We decided on the name Ellie Jane Here is my 22 week bump pic!

I hope your placenta gets the h*ll out of dodge Sarah!  Glad to hear you're doing well otherwise and yaaaayyyy for Mchup!

Hello girls!  Congrats to mchupie and Baby Corina! Everyone looks great and congrats to all the new 1st Triers!

 Nothing super new but we did decide to name her Lorali on Christmas.  I have my fasting, 3-hr GD test next week and I am not looking forward to it.

Pattypoundcake:

20 hours until my big ultrasound. 20 hours to decide if I want to stay team green or if I will lose my resolve. 

Obviously a healthy baby is all that matters but this is HARD!!!  

AHHHHH!  PPC I cannot believe your big u/s is tomorrow   To stay team green or buckle and find out... that's a toughie...  GL!  If you decide to find out, update the girls on the VBAC board!  Happy (((hugs))) dear

Brilanea

It's my first grad check in too

All is great & no big news. Bad m/s & exhaustion but I'll happily take them both. Had my first appt last week & all was good. Was supposed to go this week but they were able to get me in early last week. Waiting for them to call me with date of my next appt - can't wait.

Best of luck to everyone!

Yeah! I have been waiting for this all day! I am still here and 10 weeks this week. we have our first ultrasound Wednesday morning and I will add my picture to my siggy the instant I get home! I am just ready to see my little peanut and make sure everything is ok. We told both sides of our extended families Christmas eve and morning and my parents told all of their friends right after that.  My morning sickness seems to have turned a corner and I am feeling great lately. I am ready to move on to 2nd tri and get this baby bump going right now it is just chub ! Miss you ladies and am looking forward to many 2011 BFP's!

Awwww...you look awesome!

Lots of vibes coming your way. The necklace is beautiful Sarah.

Sorry I'm late to this...m/s has kicked in and I'm feeling pretty sh*tty. My first appointment and ultrasound is scheduled for 1/7!

cmoosey:

My first check in!  Things are good with me..so far no major symptoms, just some cramping, sore boobies, and hot flashes (IDK if those are really baby related or not).  I have my first appt on the 4th!  We told our parents and siblings (well I'm waiting to tell my sisters until tomorrow when I'll see them in person) and everyone is thrilled.

 

I must have missed your BFP announcement! Congrats girl!!

LadyXaverian

Thank you, all, for the 'move out of the way, placenta' vibes!

I'll send your well-wishes to Mchup!

Kerr and PPC, good luck at your anatomy scans.

Kdodge, yay for baby boy being in position.

Hi girls!  It has been a long time since I posted in a check in, I always miss them because of work!!  I am 25 weeks 5 days today and we are pretty sure it's a girl!  Since I'm a teacher and have off this week, I've been trying to get the nursery ready.  Here is the most recent picture of my belly I took last week at 25 weeks.   

I can't wait to see how everyone else is making out!

 

I couldn't see this today at work because of the firewall, but I love it! You look great! 

pinkflipflops44

Had my anatomy scan last week and we are having a healthy baby girl!!!!!!!!! We told our families over Christmas and I have already started shopping for some adorable clothes for my daughter! So excited.

lynn97

Hello All!  I haven't checked in for a while but all has been going well. We're officially in 2nd Tri (yippee!!) and I'm feeling much better. I battled nausea throughout most of 1st Tri but it was always tolerable. Now, I just have awful heartburn and dry skin.  I got to hear the baby's heartbeat last week and little bean is growing just like they should.  I'm no longer fitting in any of my regular pants :-(  Here's a pic of me at 12 weeks. I'm looking forward to getting a real bump and not just looking fat.

Sorry for the super late response! 

Aww thanks    Yep, still gym faithful - determined to stay as active as possible. I ran 3 miles on Monday and 4 yesterday (at a much slower pace than pre-pregnancy). Feeling good so far and so happy to have passed that test.  One less thing to worry about!
