  Happy New Year !

  Everyday when I wake I feel just a little bigger. Belly starting to peek out of some of the maternity shirts.  Also getting hard to move about.

  I just cried over absolutely nothing.  And since I cry like 3 times a year, I'm feeling a little rEdiculous.  I think the last time I cried was last May when I found myself in an airport bathroom with bright red blood in my pants, completely freaked out that I was losing the baby.  So crying because I still haven't managed to buy a new car to replace the 20yo clunker that I'm not willing to drive the baby around in - yeah, I'm feeling like an idiot.  Deep breaths.

  Extreme hunger has set in.  Other than that, nothing new here. 

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution?

  I gave up making resolutions a couple of years ago since I never stuck to them anyway.

  I am starting to get that done feeling. Something always hurts and my mobility has really decreased as has my energy. ANd my ribs, oh my ribs, this kid has launched a full force assault on my poor ribs. I can't believe he has 4-6 weeks of growing left in there.

  Have baby. Stay sane.

  Updates: So excited to be pregnant with number two.  No symptoms at this point but a little tiredness.  I hope it lasts! Ha!

   

  Question of the Week: What was your New Year resolution? Don't feed myself anything I don't give to my 13 month old (e.g., soda, sugary treats, empty calories).  If my 'outside baby' doesn't need it then neither does my newest baby.

  Feeling like I'm really ready for Feb to get here.  I'm tired of feeling huge and not getting any sleep because of how uncomfortable I am.  I'm tired of the insulin shots and having to check my blood 4 times a day.  I know that baby needs to stay in for at least 5 more weeks, but after that, I'm all for her making her appearance. lol

   

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution?

  Like PP's said, I don't do resolutions.  but, I do have one thing I'm going to try to do and that is to not lose it too bad when we drop DD off at college in August.  I am not sure how I'm going to handle that.  I've promised her that I won't embarrass her too badly. lol

  Finally got crib put together and car seat installed! Carpal tunnel pain is now excruciating and I wake up most nights crying (I'm not a cryer, this sucks). Can't sleep for anything. Due to this, I'm feeling DONE. Also starting to feel huge for the first time. 9 is my lucky number, so hoping for the 9th to be the big day.

  Totally forgot to make a real resolution this year. Hoping to be at my wedding weight  by the end of 2012 (married in 09). Looking at pics I looked pretty darned good then, but of course wasn't satisfied at the time It's totally doable.

  I'm generally feeling pretty good, but have a headache today and really miss being able to take anything stronger than Tylenol *sigh* Am currently curled up in bed with tiger balm  on my neck and temples taking it easy. I notice I am moving more slowly/deliberately of late, but I'm not in any pain or discomfort and don't feel held back. As of this morning, I can still touch my toes! 

   

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution?

  The only one I posted was to be the best mom I can be. This year is going to bring such a huge change, so I don't feel the need to make any definite improvement plans other than surviving it!

  Feeling pretty good.  Am getting over yet another sinus infection.  Gotta love the things pregnancy gives you. 

  Had my a/s last wed and everything looking good.  Do want me to have a repeat scan in 4w because LO was uncooperative at the end and didn't get great looks at face and heart.  Had been feeling some movement for a few days.  It has been pretty non-existent today, but trying not to freak out too bad!!

  Other then the low blood pressure kicking me on my butt every once and a while I am feeling great.  Baby is doing wonderful.   Moving feb 1 and I really am dreading it but cannot wait to be all settled in and ready for our little moose in May   It is kind of different not knowing what little one is so this surprise is going to be the best one I have ever had    Only silly symptoms bothering me are the numb arms and hands when sleeping!  Anyone have a remedy for that?  It's crazy!!   I am back to my little work outs and it actually is starting to feel good.  I try to do them at the pt where my blood pressure seems to be at a norm and then after that I am feeling soooo normal again so I keep doing more and more everyday even if it is just a few moves    

   

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution? 

   

  My new years resolution is to get all settled in our new place, finish off with work at the end of April ,  have baby and then enjoy a year off!!    WOOOOT!!    And in that time I can focus on little moose and myself.   I am really looking forward to 2012

  I think DH wants to know the sex, so I am sure we will find out. :-)

  Updates: How are you feeling?  Any events/news to share?  New pregnancy symptoms or any that have disappeared?

   

  The girls hurt - BAD!  Slight queasiness periodically throughout the day, but nothing that is bad...yet!  Hopefully, I will be lucky and stay clear of the full blown M/S.  Weird pulling sensation mainly on the left side (where I would assume my ovaries would be) and sometimes on the right side too.  Mostly gone away though.

   

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution?

   

  Unofficially - stay on track with paying off bills, so maybe one day I can quit my job and be a stay at home mom!  :-)  Also, like others...bring in a healthy baby to this world in 2012.

  Updates: How are you feeling? Hmm...fat, tired, achy.

  Any events/news to share? We are in the process of painting the nursery.  Baby showers are starting this month, too.  I'm feeling crafty with plans to make the crib skirt, curtains, mobile, and diaper stacker.  Had the GTT last week - hope I won't hear from my OB anytime soon - that would mean a pass.

  New pregnancy symptoms or any that have disappeared? More sleepless nights over the past week.  Last night it seemed nearly impossible to find a comfortable position, too.  Wow, I'm a bit of a grumpy preggo today...sorry!

   

  Question of the Week: What was your New Year resolution? I did not make a resolution for the New Year...nothing that needs some sort of official recognition as such.  I do plan to shape up as quickly as possible once I get the okay after our LO arrives...it will be nice to have my body back!

  This baby is a kicker!.  I don't think I experienced these kind of kicks until late in the pregnancy with DD#1.  Got my first prenatal (doctor-approved) massage.  Wow, I didn't know I could have those kinds of knots - lol!

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution?

  I don't do resolutions.

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution?  Don't really make resolutions, but this year we're looking for a new house, so getting that taken care of before getting too deep into third tri is a goal.

  We had an early sex scan done at 16 weeks so we knew the sex before announcing to family at Christmas. It's a GIRL so now we'll have a "millionaires family" as my Mother informed us; a boy and a girl.

  Most of the nausea and ickiness is finally over,though my little Dilly lets me know when she doesn't like something like yesterday that sent me puking a bit....all over our beagle's head. Guess he wanted first dibs on the goodness of a McD hamburger and chai tea that he stuck his head under me mid puke.

  No real NY resolutions other than to lose as much baby weight and pre baby weight as possible from June (When she's born) to December (DISNEY!)

  Feeling good, baby still bopping about in there, though I notice more wriggling and less popping. Probably getting crowded! Finally have a date/time/place set for our shower, the nursery is getting painted today, and tonight we have our first meeting with our daycare co-op. This weekend is our full day birth/childcare class. Busy busy! 
  

   

  Question of the Week:  What was your New Year resolution?

  It's going to be such an overwhelming change in our lives this year that the only resolution I made was to be the best mom I can be.
