_Asti_ Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Late to join but couldn't see the pic on my phone for some reason! I agree with everyone, you look great They are great memories to have. I printed out the photos and put them in the baby's memory book. Link to comment
littleL_RN Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Thanks so much, girls! Honestly, I'm still moving around pretty well with the exception of bending over...that's a lost cause. I'm going to have to start asking my husband to put on my socks. Otherwise, I have just been fatigued since there's no continuity in my sleep anymore. I'm up at least 3 times over the course of the night to go to the bathroom and re-hydrate; I'm thinking of it as motherhood training haha. Saturday will be the official mark of 9 months (36 weeks)! I definitely feel nervous but relatively ready to go! I'm trying not to put any solid thoughts about labor and delivery in my head -- I know everyone's birth experience is unique and, since I'm typically so anxious, expectations are not a good idea. But my hospital bag is packed, nursery is complete, baby clothes washed. I'm leaving hubby in charge of the car seat set up. Link to comment
WithLove Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Will you be getting induced if Baby doesn't arrive on time? Link to comment
littleL_RN Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 The OB practice I see only allows a week past the due date before they induce, so if girlfriend is not popped out by 1/23, I'm definitely going for induction. I hate to get antsy, but I'm really hoping she's punctual like mommy Link to comment

_Asti_ Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 All well here! My little one is 7 months! So crazy. 5 more months and back to work (do not know how you all do it with only 6-12 weeks off! That blows my mind!) She's sooooo much fun and loving doing new things with her and doing all of our old hobbies with her too now! Am also feeling the itch for baby #2!! Link to comment
annie24 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 awww, awesome!! glad things are going well. Link to comment
redrose85 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 All sounds great! We're working on baby #1. It's actually a lot more of a journey than I anticipated, pretty stressful during the two week wait. One more week to go in this month. Link to comment
SapphireNoir10 Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 Good luck! Sending you lots of baby dust Link to comment

I remember having to leave work early to get home to have sex! My husband was on night shift and we always miss each other due to the hours we would work and I actually had to tell my coworkers I was leaving early for an appt! Really takes the fun out of things when it drags on for months! Sending baby dust your way Link to comment

At first he teased me about using him, but when I got offended and self-conscious he admitted that he loves that the tables have turned and I'm the one who's pawing at him all the time. We're having fun. It's not just for sport It's just this two week wait business that really sucks. I have three days to go and I just have no idea if this month was successful. This past week and a bit I have definitely felt different so I'm hoping I have a very happy Saturday morning... I know it's stupid, but I get so jealous of ppl who conceived in their first cycle. What makes it worse is when they say "be patient." They have no idea what patience is! Link to comment
SapphireNoir10 Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 I was totally impatient. I got pregnant the first month with my miscarriage and then the second month trying with my daughter. I was still ridiculously obsessed with conceiving haha. Link to comment
redrose85 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Hahaha wow, no kidding you were impatient! I'm trying to convince myself that it's better if I'm not pregnant this cycle. Alex starting a new job is enough change for right now I think lol. Oh, it's not working, but I am trying. Link to comment
SapphireNoir10 Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 It will happen and before you know it you'll be a mom, and its fun trying haha. I always figure the stress of my miscarriage and conceiving and two rough pregnancies is worth it for a lifetime of being a parent. Link to comment

I always figure the stress of my miscarriage and conceiving and two rough pregnancies is worth it for a lifetime of being a parent. Yeah, I guess so. I've been dealing with extreme bloating and cramps all week long and I am just over wondering when or if my period is gonna start. Seriously, feel like I could float away. Link to comment
SapphireNoir10 Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 The earliest giveaway and most obvious sign I was pregnant each time was REALLY sore boobs before my period. I know some people get them anyway but was unusual for me. To be honest pregnancy symptoms are fairly identical to before period symptoms. I felt REALLY crampy and was convinced my period was coming but I'm guessing they were implantation cramps. Here's hoping this is your month Link to comment
_Asti_ Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I hated the "am I pregnant" symptom watching! My first pregnancy I knew before my period was due because of the constant peeing. Our normal 4 hr road trip we could take without stopping required 3 pee breaks for me! The second pregnancy I didn't have any symptoms or indication whatsoever which is why I was shocked I was pregnant! (Looking back insomnia was my giving away symptom! But had nothing else) and I never experienced the excessive peeing! Link to comment

I spend half my day peeing, I swear. But for me, the dizzy spells and the weird localized headaches have really got my attention. I rarely get headaches anymore, and if I do, they're tension headaches. These are like someone taking a pointy object and poking me right above my right eyebrow through my head. Feels so foreign. If Ms. Flo comes, so be it, but this morning I no longer feel premenstrual. Link to comment
SapphireNoir10 Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Fingers crossed for you that this is your month. I have a feeling it might be! Link to comment
redrose85 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 If it's not, then there is something wrong with me, because this level of exhaustion is unreal. I am fairly useless right now. Link to comment
SapphireNoir10 Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Exhaustion was a huge symptom for me I just wanted to go to bed as soon as i got home from work. Have you tested? Link to comment
Batya33 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I did not have sore breasts - I had some typical PMS symptoms, definitely more tired -I remember instant messaging with a friend that I was going to skip the gym on a Saturday which was so rare for me- just wasn't going to happen. I tested when I was 7-8 days late. I was somewhat surprised but not entirely. I also had a weird craving for bacon (I would have bacon maybe once every two years) which I had at a Panera Bread right before buying the pregnancy test. Link to comment
