Here is my bloat, which actually wasn't SO bad last night, since I couldn't eat dinner. It's bad enough that I can't button pants at the end of the day, so as soon as I get home, the sweatpants come on.
I really do miss all the excitement on this board! It is so great to lurk on 1st and 2nd tri and see so many GP'rs from when I was on over there now. I wish I could post a pic but I can't since I'm at work.
Good to see you! I didn't have your e-mail for the last few GTG's we've had. Let me know if you'd be interested in coming to future ones
Awwww thanks ladies! I love this thread, and I love to see everyone together again. Group hug? Yes?
Pattypoundcake:
This all goes to show that everyone elses pregnancies go at a lightning pace (how the hell did POF get to 10 weeks already?) while when it is your own...it is like time is going backwards.
Ladies, you all look great!
PPC, I know exactly what you mean - there's something about watching other people's pregnancies race by that make waiting that much harder. I'm sorry if mine did that for you today. *hugs*
Oh POF you are too sweet! That isn't what I meant at all...I just mean that it is amazing how you can go from trying and hoping for so long to BABY in a blink of an eye! I am so excited for all of you (and I really hope all of us can join you very soon!!)
I know it's been a while but I couldn't resist coming over to say hi and see how you all are doing!
I just have to say I am LOVING seeing everyone's bellies and u/s pics etc in one post- it's awesome. Great idea Mchupie!! POF you look freaking awesome!
Here's a pic of Baby J last week at 8w5d:
The head is on top and then you can see the little arm buds etc below that.
No belly shots yet. I am just bloated. It's getting harder and harder to hide by the day. My dad is coming to stay with us W-S this week and I am so nervous about how I am going to hide it. I was joking with DH about getting some spanx. haha. No m/s for me so far I am hoping I dodged the bullet. We'll see- I still have 4 more weeks for it to catch up with me.
Anyway- I hope you all are doing awesome and I hope to see tons more BFPs coming from TTGP! I LOVE the influx of my ladies already. It's wonderful. XOXO
I see there's been an influx of BFP's! I lurk, I admit it. It's hard to officially leave.
Everything's going well here...except for the fact day care just called to inform me there's been a case of Fifth's Disease...all you 2nd time moms might know it as slapped cheek syndrome. In any case, it can be potentially fatal for the fetus if I've never been exposed, so I need to get blood drawn. Fun times, right? As if there isn't anything else to worry about...
Good luck to everyone!! Throwing buckets and buckets of baby dust, O dust, and everything else you might need.
Oh my goodness, I hope everything is okay.
Thanks, lady. Me, too. But I hear that the percentages of harming the child are fairly low...it's still just that 2-3%, you know?
Well, first, here's a picture, snapped last night to see how impossible it will be to hide my pregnancy at a party I have to go to this weekend.
Um, hi, I'm screwed. One of our friends, who wasn't supposed to get the official announcement for another two weeks, came over to visit on Saturday and knew right away. Ha! Well, so much for hiding it...
Also, I had an ultrasound this morning! I'm 10 weeks, and Pac-man is still dancing up a storm. It was quiet at the clinic so the tech let us watch for 2 whole minutes, and it was amazing to see how long the little legs are now. In the picture everything's all pulled up to the little body, so we have a very definite gummi bear shot, but in reality those limbs are stretching waaaaay out. I'll update my siggy tonight with my new picture.
In clot news, apparently it has once again gone down in size, but it's still there so I'm still on modified rest. Bummer. I'm itching to start getting some exercise in, and I'm hoping that I only have a couple more weeks of rest ahead. I had a little spotting scare on Thursday last week, but nothing since, and my clinic isn't at all worried.
ETA: And yes, those are mat jeans. The rubber band trick wasn't working anymore (ooouuuuuch) and I was tired of leggings, so I caved and bought these yesterday. I'm so freaking happy to be in comfy jeans again. It's like being back in my own skin.
Ladies - I love all of the pics...you all look fabulous!
It's so good to keep up like this.
Mchup - Have you posted "reminders" about this on the Tri & Birth Month boards? MissNikki was around yesterday and she asked me about it. She was sad she missed it last week.

I miss my ladies on TTGP! I am still getting to know the people on the December board and they seem really nice, but I miss the friendships I have made here. I am so glad that we have this post now! Thanks, mchup!
My first appointment is on Friday and I am hoping to get an u/s. No belly pics for me yet! Just some bloat.
I hope you get one, too! Please please please post the pic next week if you get one
I am so excited for you, hun. Will you be joining us at Disney at the end of May?
Yup! CHW and I have already talked about which rides we will be able to go on! I am looking forward to it.
Haha, we spent half an afternoon looknig at all the rides and saying "Oooh, we can do Snow White!"
I cant wait to see everyone!
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)
Hi ladies! I miss you. I think about you a lot and pray you all get your BFPs very soon!!!
Just yesterday and today I started to experience morning sickness on the drive in to work. I have a little mild cramping now and some fatigue. Other than that, I feel great. We go for our first u/s next Tuesday!

Hi girls! I don't know if any of you remember me, but I was here for a year before I got my bfp. I left here in October, but def still lurk. I am so happy for all of you who have gotten your bfps!!
I am doing great! First tri and some of second was def tough, but I got through it and I have felt great ever since. My shower is in a week and a half, then its just count down to June. Hope everyone is doing well.

Many of you may not remember me, as I lurked a lot and posted a little. But, I learned a ton from you ladies and am so grateful.
I am 24 weeks. I haven't taken any belly pics, which isn't that big of a deal because I am not obviously pregnant yet. We are team green until delivery. LO kicks and pokes like mad. We've been able to watch the movement from the outside for a few days now. And, in spite of the fact that I still have m/s, I love being pregnant!
Hopefully, many of you will be joining the trimester boards very quickly!

When are you guys going to be at Disney? I am planning to take my daughter at the end of May (probably the 22-24) since she is having her lung surgery on the 25th. I thought she deserved one last hoorah before she has to be in bed for a few months... Anyway, if you see some crazy lady waving at you, that's probably me!

Hello! Its been so long that I'm not sure if anyone remembers me anymore. I'm 35w1d today. Woo! Almost there!
My bp has been high, and I retained too much water so after getting checked weekly and passing for 3 weeks, my midwife took me off of work yesterday with instructions to "take it easy". I can still go out, but its like 1-2 outings/day, mostly sitting down, but keep exercising and drink tons of liquid. I was so disappointed I almost started crying. I only had three weeks of work left, including this week, and I wanted to finish it out.
My midwife also said that Charlotte's has dropped all the way down, she's been in position for over a week now, and she did an internal yesterday (early) and said although I'm not dilated yet, Charlotte's head is "right there"! So...little girl thinks she's ready but we want her to stay put for at least two more weeks. She also said that she'll be incredibly surprised if I naturally make it to my due date, not to mention past it.
So far....all is well. I just need to rest and relax now I guess...which for me is a learning process...I like to stay as busy and active as possible...
This was at 32 weeks. I'll have a new one up on my blog from today in a little bit if you'd like to see that one (link in siggy)
This is Charlotte at 20 weeks in 4D. Its the best picture we have of her. It is her profile with her little hands in a "boxing" position
Good luck to all of you! I hope things are going well!
I'm feeling ok. No puking yet, so I am semi happy about that. Food is disgusting to me and I've lost 2 pounds. Also, I am super tired. I get home from work and lay on the couch. Poor DD, I think she misses playing with me. No ultrasounds yet. I should have something in two weeks.
I hope you're all doing well, I do some stalking now and then!!
Hi lissasue! I miss you and flpink on TFAS so much! I feel like everyone is leaving me and I'm still plugging away at mod! Sorry you're so sick! It'll get better love:)

Hi ladies! I still pop into TTGP every once in a while, but mostly (almost exclusively) as a lurker...
I'm due in late August - just past the half-way mark at this point. We found out on Friday that we're expecting a girl. I have to admit - I've felt GREAT this entire time - so incredibly lucky (i almost feel like I could have been a candidate for "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant"!). No belly pics at this point - I had a little extra padding to begin with, so I really don't look pg yet.
::kisses Moonpie:: Thanks Love for thinking of this and bringing all these wonderful Ladies back to visit so we can see them glow and watch thier LOs grown right before our eyes. I love it and you and all of them!!

Aww, this is so neat to see some belly pics and u/s pics! Great post, as usual, mchupie!
Not sure how many know me....but I don't have much to report from my end. I'm feeling good (which can be somewhat unnerving), but I know I shouldn't complain as many people are struggling with the m/s! My first appointment is April 28th, so that is what I am looking forward to. It's like a new kind of 2ww!
Great to see many of you from TTGP. I am hoping to see many more BFPs soon!

Hi ladies! I hope everyone is doing well and hope to see you on the tri boards soon!
I am 22 weeks today and feeling good! 1st tri was exhausting but now I'm pretty much back to normal - just a little slower! We are Team Green and staying that way! Here's a picture from our 21 w u/s. The tech gave us a few 3D shots while we waited for baby to move into a position where she could see the spine!
