August-September 2010 Moms

Hey Ginah
Yea we're all picking up the pieces. Wonder if Pampers know how much theyve stressed us preggy mommy's out today!

Congrats on your scan. little one looks lovely I guess they cant say for sure until baba opens her legs. My aunt was told its a girl until 28 weeks when baby decided to give them a show.
I only started feeling movement at 18.5w so its just a matter of time. You'll love it when you do

Hey Jeanine. Thanks. will accept you tonight! That way we can still stay in touch. I'd hate to lose contact with all of you.

Ok one thing I dont like about this site is I cant read further back to see what was posted.
But, you can add a permanent signature with your ticker so you dont have to upload it every time.

Hey ladies

May I join you. I dont know the peeps that have started the Sept 2010 thread and here atleast I know Girly.

I am 17weeks preggo, went to see doc on Wed and baby is weighing in at 275g and the heartbeat was 146bpm. She is very active but I only feel flutters when I eat or after I have eaten.

Dr says she is a girl but I am still convinced she might not be coz she hasnt opened her legs for me to be totally convinced.

Jeanine - forgot to say: "WELCOME"

Well, after my quiet phase, i noticed her kicks much higher. It used to be quite low down, but now it's above my belly button. Doctor also said yesterday that there is nothing down there anymore, she has moved much higher up now.

My last weigh in was at 13 weeks and I had picked up 3KG's then yesterday (11weeks later), I had only picked up 1 more kg. I eat a bit less now though - have no desire for sweet things at all.

As for wine and sushi - apparently it's fine in moderation. I have not had any wine though, took a sip of DH's champagne the other day and I had sushi twice in the last 6 weeks (not the vegetable kind).

Hi Ladies,

Yet another Pampers fugative made it here

Girly, I've added you on Facebook - Jeanine Keyser.

Glad to know I'm not the only one getting worried about movement. Instead of feeling dozens of kicks during the day from about Saterday, I just felt 1 or 2 flutters. Then suddenly a tiny kick, and I realised it WAY higher than normal. Now it seems he's back to his usualy position

As for the weight, gained about 4, maybe 4.5 till now, but it seems to be creeping up at least 500g a week now.

Thanks Charnenay. She has given me a few kicks after lunch so I feel a bit better.
Where are your LO's kicking?
Mine is still very low down that I feel her.

Yea my gynae told me about her turning her back to me and maybe then I'll feel it less. But I hope that gets less as they get bigger.

Mommy cant wait to see your pics. So its def a boy!?

Re the food - now I'm jealous. This week I've hardly had as many sweets as the last few weeks, but yet scale still says I've picked up weight? I know some of it is baby but I cant go on picking up 1kg a week surely?

Do you drink wine? My doc said I could have the occasional glass but I'm still hesitant.
Do you eat sushi sushi or vegetable sushi? Again, gynae said its ok if from a trusted source but I'm sticking to Spar's vegetable sushi for now. Havent had that in weeks, hmmm.

Girly - in your mail you asked bout me doing something not to gain weight...

well the honest truth, nope i'm not doing anything. I eat as always, only difference is that i now tend to eat at least 1 fruit more a day.

and i get my ddaily chockie in and sweets - cos of jadon. and i drink red whine (only on the odd occasion and i love sushi at least 2/3 a week
