Re: Pregnant Aug '11 Moms Check In!!
How many weeks, how big is baby? 28 weeks, small pineapple.
Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? Right now I feel like it is more movement, but maybe not.
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? Last appointment was about 2 weeks ago, it was the glucose test. I don't think I had any questions...
Biggest complaint this week? My body just gets so exhausted so quickly.
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? We FINALLY completely cleared out our spare bedroom for DD to move into, we put up new blinds and got a rug. Hopefully we can get her moved over there next weekend so that I can start getting the baby's room setup.
Big news to share? I had an ultrasound this morning to take a look at a section of the baby's heart they weren't able to get a good shot of at the anatomy scan. His heart looks good and apparently he is very long and about a half pound larger than "normal" (weighing in at around 3 lbs).

Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? I *think* I have been feeling movement this past week or so. This is earlier than with both earlier pregnancies, so I'm not 100% sure yet.
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? Last appointment was about 2 weeks ago. No concerns then. I had the girls with me and I was pretty thrilled to see DD1 get all excited when we heard the heartbeat on the Doppler
Biggest complaint this week? Nothing really. Just tired, I guess, but I honestly can't tell if it's from being pregnant, or from working and chasing around the kids.
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? Nope. Although I did check the "expecting" box on a survey I got from the girls' college fund place.
Big news to share? Nothing really. Like I said above, I think I maybe felt baby kicks, so that's my potentially big news. Also, I am not entering any pregnant pageant. lol
Post your bump:
I don't have any recent bump pictures with me. Sorry
How many weeks, how big is baby? 26 weeks, lettuce head
Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? Started feeling movement around 15 weeks. This one is more active than Hannah
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? I have an appointment on Wednesday and they're doing the 1hr glucose. Very nervous. Also I feel that this one is breech and will remain breech like Hannah. I just have a feeling. I want to know if some women just have breech babies for some reason.
Biggest complaint this week? I feel huge even though I have gained 14lbs thus far which is the same as #1
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? nope
Big news to share? nothing yet. Hopefully next week I can say that I passed my glucose test
How many weeks, how big is baby? 10 weeks, prune
Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? too early for movement, but I feel more random flutters than I remember with DS
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? haven't had one yet - I go at the end of the month; I did have a dating ultrasound and talked witha dr, but not a real appt
Biggest complaint this week? I finally threw up. If I only throw up once this entire pregnancy, that would be awesome.
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? nope. not buying until we find out gender.
Big news to share? nope
Post your bump: no bump yet
How many weeks, how big is baby? 30 wks - Baby is a squash
Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? I have had SO much more movement this time around even with an anterior placenta. It gives me hope that we (fingers crossed) won't end up with another breech!
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? I just had an appt this morning. No concerns and was actually quite happy to find out I had lost a lb. Granted I was on a different scale, but the doctor said he was going to count it. This normally wouldn't be a concern, BUT I had just gained 10 lbs in one month. Oops.
Biggest complaint this week? I am SO uncomfortable. I haven't been keeping up with my chiro and have been paying for it. I remember how bad it was with DS, so this is definitely not the part I was looking forward to.
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? We looked at strollers...does that count?
Big news to share? Nope
Post your bump: So bad at taking pictures....
How many weeks, how big is baby? 9wks
Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? Not yet
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? Last Wednesday. All was good. One (thank god!) strong heartbeat.
Biggest complaint this week?
i feel sick all the time
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? Actually I bought a crib, identical to dds, at a consignment store on clearance for 12 bucks. Total score. Now I don't have to try and worry about getting dd out of hers.
Big news to share? Nope
Post your bump: oh, I actually have this. Well, a bloat. It's out of control. I'd hoped to not announce to family until first tri, but there is no hiding this. We told ils Saturday and will tell my parents Wednesday.
How many weeks, how big is baby? 37, I'm full term...can't believe it! Baby is a watermelon
Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? I think there have been times I feel like it's more, but now he's slowing down a bit, less room to move around, feels about the same I think.
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? I saw my MW this morning. Baby seemed perfect, blood pressure good, etc. No real questions this time. Ready when he is (well, not really...I need another week or so, at a minimum!
).
Biggest complaint this week? I have some weird leg twinges, an extremely needy toddler keeping me on my toes, and pubic pain of course. I always have to pee and often times feel like I'm being stabbed in the vagina with an ice pick. I have BH contractions pretty much constantly. Everything just hurts. Can you tell we're at the end over here?
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? Last weekend we put a full closet organizer in the boy's (shared) room, so I spent the week doing TONS of organizing and setting up. All his clothes and diapers are washed and put away. I have quite a bit still to get to organization-wise (and hoping to get to it all tomorrow/Wednesday before family is in town for T-day), but if he came tomorrow, we'd be pretty much ready for him.
Big news to share? Not really, nope. Even with the tons of contractions and some dull aching pain that my MW thinks is me effacing, everything still looks like we're headed towards an early-December baby
How many weeks, how big is baby? 31 weeks, squash
Movement: Feeling any yet, is it more/less/similar to previous pregnancies? similar to DD in consistency, although this one feels bigger and stronger
When was your most recent doctor appoint? What concerns or questions did you have? Uh, two weeks ago? I asked if I needed another Dtap shot, and if I should worry that my cholesterol is higher. No and no.
Biggest complaint this week? Baby is getting big. I'm getting uncomfortable. Still persistent heartburn. Yesterday I'm not sure if I was having contractions or what, but my whole belly ached. No fun.
Did you set up or buy anything for the baby this past week? I bought some clothes on clearance last weekend
Big news to share? Nothing new
