Thanks ladies :-) I'm hoping it's just in my head. Hopefully everything is fine. I just heard the heartbeat at an appointment last Tuesday, and I have my anatomy scan a week from tomorrow. I haven't been feeling consistent movement yet, just occasional flutters, so it's not really a reason to panic. I just felt weird and crampy today (like not my normal pregnancy feeling).

I had a panicky day like this last week where I was crampy and felt like I was bleeding midway through a class. I am hoping it's just a weird body thing, and you can feel some flutters and get a little piece of mind.

Perhaps you're going to "pop" soon and the cramping is growing pains. I'm hoping for the best for you and your little one!
@Knottie9983816 - I live in Indiana. We got almost 10" of snow in March of this year, and Target did start putting out bikinis in February.. Annoying indeed.
Yup. It doesn't bother me as much with adult sizes because they don't change as often, but kids clothes, ugh. They just put out their toddler long sleeves a week or two ago - um, it's been in the 40s for over a month now, my kid needs sleeves. And if she hits a growth spurt I'll probably need to buy her a few in the next size by Feb/March (when it's still snowing and 10 degrees outside) but by then they'll be stocking shorts and spring dresses.
This is why I buy 99% of ds's things online.
Actually that's not true. I generally hate boy clothes at big box stores (except baby boden at Nordstrom/Nordstrom rack). Why can't they sell non phrase cute appliquéd stuff etc. I hate that girls can get adorable clothes for cheap at target etc and boys either have to be a hipster or a "lil slugger".
I've had Goodluck with boy clothes at old navy! I 100% agree though. Boys clothes always had sayings or animals on them. It was very hard to find say a plain striped shirt. My sons 20 months now and I'm having an easier time.

Eh I like old navy all right but still prefer brands like mini boden, kellies kids, stellybelly, or custom stuff WAY better. I do have old navy jeans I love for him though but for shirts I'll do applique stuff or collared shirts (or boden)

I recently moved to a new (temporary) apartment in Sweden that is close to Copenhagen/Denmark where the majority of my friends and family live. I'll be living here until Denmark finally decides to grant my husband residency, which if we're lucky might happen in 3-4 months and we can finally move back to our apartment in Denmark. I haven't received my Swedish ID number yet so hubby can't come until that is done and the visa application goes through. My case worker called today, he's sending me the decision this week as to whether or not I got granted the ID number yet. Fingers crossed. I feel really lonely in Sweden. I don't speak Swedish so well (you'd think Danish and Swedish would sound similar but it's so weird for me) and I don't know anybody here. Hubby is not here. I quit my internship and I am currently doing nothing. My semester at uni begins in February, so I just spend all day at home doing nothing. I wish we could host a party for everyone on our BMB and I could try all those delicious American things you guys always mention. I wish we had Reese's here too. I feel sad
A little bit of randomness this week: checked the mail at work and apparently I've been subscribed (not sure when or why or by whom) at my work address to Teen Vogue. This is pretty absurd on a number of levels: I am not even recently a teenager, I don't care about fashion, and even if I did I'm gonna take a wild guess and say Teen Vogue doesn't do too many maternity spreads.
My favorite part is the one of this month's cover blurbs: "Hunger Games: What's REALLY Triggering Your Food Cravings." Pregnancy. Pregnancy is triggering my food cravings. Teen Vogue, for the record, disagrees.

So sorry to hear you are feeling lonely, but I hope everything works out well for both you and your husband so you can be in the same place together again. ((hugs))
I have been to Copenhagen, it's BEAUTIFUL there! (granted, being a tourist is not the same as being 'stuck' there...) Maybe you can go on little adventure walks during the day? Get to know the city, maybe eavesdrop on conversations to improve your Swedish language skills, discover cute little shops to browse in or cafes to sit and sip a tea with a good book? Bonus - good exercise for you and baby! Hang in there!

I'm sorry you at having such a hard time. Everytime you think you're lonely, remember you are not: you have a tiny little human with you at ALL times! Hopefully that thought cheers you up until you can be back with the rest of your family.

I'm really sorry. I feel lonely sometimes just being home alone for a few hours: I can't imagine how you feel. I agree with PP who have suggested trying to get out - would there be a way you could join in any kind of group? The language barrier may make it difficult but if you're close to Denmark, that be an option. Here's to hoping your husband is with you soon!
I'm also going to rant (and I know there are threads devoted to weight and rude comments) but OMFG do people seriously not understand how rude it is to comment on the way someone's body is changing? Also, if you're fat as fuck, don't tell me that I'm getting fat when I'm still at a healthy BMI. I'm growing a baby, fuckwad - what have you done recently? Went out and got trashed at the club? Everyone and anyone who comments on my weight or appearance to say anything other than how incredible I look can go fist fuck themselves.
@elasticheart13, no additional advice, but just wanted to give creepy internet hugs! That sounds like a tough situation; just remember it is temporary and things will get better! And in the meantime, we are all here for you!
Thank you everyone, just needed to get it off my chest. It's incredibly stressful and it makes me happy that I have this board to vent and you lovely ladies! I convinced my little sister to take the long trip to Malmö (where I live) and she'll be spending a few days with me, I'm so excited! I'll explore the city with her
@AEG84 I will gladly accept the internet hugs! >:D<
I just bawled my eyes out after watching a video that popped up on my newsfeed on Facebook. I had some downtime in the office. Now my coworkers think something is wrong. Good thing the workday is almost over. Sheesh, darn hormones.
Goodbye size 26 jeans ..see you again hopefully. Hello leggings , cellulite, and slight muffin top. Fml
When I lay on the couch in the evening, sometimes I just lift my shirt up and jiggle my belly. DH laughs and tells me to quit messing with LO. I'm not a fan of this new lumpiness, but it's kind of amusing to watch my belly jiggle make my new ta-tas jiggle. My boobs have never been big enough to jiggle before! Note to self - gonna need to look up synonyms for 'jiggle' before I ever tell that story again.

It's funny when you get those random magazine subscriptions. I have gotten some weird ones over the years. I think companies just sometimes get your address and send you the magazine so it looks like they have more subscribers. I mysteriously got subscribed to the Rosie O-Donnell magazine years ago and more recently More magazine, which is aimed at older women (like menopause age).
Rant/emotions: All this talk of husbands being so super sweet and I haven't even got much special treatment from DH yet! We had a loss (twins) in the Spring, so I'm thinking maybe he's afraid to connect with baby because of that. He's also leaving in January for 6month military training, so I'm wondering if this is his way of preparing himself for the distance. I just want him to talk to my belly like he did with the first pregnancy, and not act annoyed when I talk about baby stuff all the time (even though part of that is because he doesn't want me spending a lot of extra money).
It's frustrating and my pregnancy hormones make it so much worse sometimes!!

Have you tried talking to him about how you're feeling? Maybe mention how important it is to you for him to bond with both you and baby, since he will be gone through the most difficult part of your pregnancy.
I didn't get any stretch marks with DD. This time. My bump goes from non-existent to super pregnant throughout the day. When I was putting on lotion tonight, I noticed my first stretch mark. I'm a lot more mad about it than I thought I would be! I have them on my butt from puberty (hello Hispanic genes), but I foolishly though that because I didn't get them last time that I would be free this time. Boo!

My husband never talked to DS during the pregnancy. He also didn't start talking to DS til he was a few months old. He would hold him etx but just had no idea how to play with him, read to him, talk to him, etc. he's awesome but just took him a while to get it. He was in Afghanistan until I was 30ish weeks and the night he came home he didn't even really get excited to feel kicks. It was hard but now I realize he just had to do it on his own time.

Now I feel like even more of a jerk for a melt down over fiancé not making me breakfast when I asked him to... I've heard it's not as easy for men to connect to a pregnancy, so it's normal? I watched a TedTalks from the creators of Babble talking about how long it took the dad to actually "love" his son. Really good video!
Is this where we come to drown our sorrows in imaginary vodka and tonic? Because I need an imaginary vodka and tonic right now. My daughter jumped off our (3 inch high) couch tonight and broke her leg. And while this wouldn't normally drive me to imaginary drink, she JUST broke her arm 2 months ago and she JUST got the cast off for that and I JUST paid off her accompanying $700 hospital bill this morning. Laawd help me this child is going to be the death of me.

Don't know how I missed this one earlier but, you've made my night. Thank you.
Oh no!!!!!! At least you'll have met your deductible for this one? Hopefully? She okay? Hugs to her. And mostly to you.
Yes thank goodness. We just have a 15% coinsurance now so it shouldn't be that bad. And she's ok. They gave her baby Vicodin so she was able to get some sleep. Hopefully it will feel a bit better in the morning. I think I'll be the one who needs the baby Vicodin after carrying her around like the Queen of Sheba for 6 weeks.

I literally laughed out loud thinking about you carrying her like the Queen on Sheba. Good thing DH already knows I'm nuts. Seriously though, I hope she recovers quickly and maybe starts being a little more careful.
@Knottie9983816 I was seriously about to lose it, but then a medic I deployed with saw me and told me how great I look because she expected me to get huge really fast because I'm so short. I don't get to see any of my old buddies regularly because I work in the clinic, so that was seriously a breath of fresh air.
***Rant Needed*** My fiance's brother just moved in with us because he left his controlling girlfriend and has no place to go which is fine besides the fact that he has no money and no job. He "owned" a business with his girlfriend but her name was on everything so he just gave it to her when he left. I love his brother like my own, but he's already talking about how he's going to be here still when the baby's here. The problem with this is I have custody of my 17 year old sister so with a 3 bedroom house that leaves no bedroom for a nursery. I understand that the baby can be in our room for a while, but I still wanted him to have his own room from the beginning. My fiance's response to this is well, your sister turns 18 in March so she could move out then. EXCUSE ME. I am not kicking my 18 year old sister out when she hasn't even graduated high school yet just because your 24 year old brother got himself into a mess. ***End of Rant****
Thank you @Knottie9983816 I love Ted Talk, so I'll look at that. And DH doesn't ever want to cook or do chores, so I get that side too :P
And everyone else, thanks for some extra thoughts. I was afraid that it was something only I was experiencing. We've talked about it some but he just says he's busy with work and is tired when he gets home. It'll get there.
I'm just so happy to have a healthy baby and that I've made it to 16 weeks!

A daredevil! That's how DS is. Always having to tell him to get down from the couch or tables, or dog crates ect. Hope she has a quick recovery and the imaginary vodka is helping!
My DH keeps his hand cradled against the baby every night.. Twice now we've been about to sleep when he's gasped in shock and claimed to feel her. I'm almost twenty weeks and I still haven't felt anything myself. It's it possible that he's actually feeling her, or?

Typically speaking you'll feel "inside kicks" a couple weeks before you'll feel outside kicks, so I doubt he felt the baby move, but perhaps not impossible? Did you feel anything when he said this, like gas? Or maybe you moved and he doesn't know what to feel for?

Now that i know we are having a boy, I have started nursery planning yay. I ordered a few samples of tempaper over the weekend to try around the room and decide which one to use. It seems like it arrived today and Now I'm here all anxious to go home and try them!!!! Ahhhh! I'll post some pics later so you girls can help me out.
