Due April 28th according to ultrasound or May 4th based on LMP. With my frst son i was due july 28th with ultrasound and august 4th with LMP. I was induced on April 27th due to decreasing amiotic fluids and had him on the 28th. My mom said with all seven of us she always had us the day before or on the day of the LMP due date. I got one doctor who is fine with giving me til may 4th and a specialist who does not recommend i go past the 28th. After some research i learned that decreasing amiotic fluid is normal with impending labor and that i opted for induction due to impatience and wanting to meet my son. I am hoping impatience doesn't win out again. Here is to going to labor naturally, so i don't know my due date. My pregnancy scatter brain is all over this post. Who know maybe with working and exercising i will naturally go into labor on the 27th and have him on the 28th. It would be cute for my to sons to have 28th birthdays. This is son number two and with career wants and husbands request this is the last baby. I used to joke i wanted to be done having babies by 25 and i will be 25 sept of this year, but will have to put my nurse prac education on hold. I am hungry. who knows with work life and school life it might be better to get induced. I am graduating grad school in May for my nurse educator and will be running around doing clinicals and trying to work in these next four months plus a comprehensive exam days before my baby is suppose to be due. My poor husband and 17 month old. ok down sharing. Good luck moms!

Checking in! It's been a while! I started the pregnancy overweight and had a doctor approved max weight gain of 20 pounds for the whole pregnancy. Well, I've already reached that 20 pound gain. I'll be 27 weeks tomorrow (due 4/9). Now, I'm just hoping to to be at the same or a lower weight then I was with my son's pregnancy. It's all my fault since I'm unabashedly eating oreos and terrible foods as if the world were ending tomorrow. I do find that tracking has helped a teensey bit so I continue to do so although I don't post my diary very frequently because I'm so ashamed (not ashamed enough to stop eating leftover halloween candy!!). I am still working out consistently and feel very strong physically if not a bit chubby and I've saved up enough Christmas money to pay for a very rigerous 8 week diet and excercise program for non-pregnant mommas called Body Back through my local Stroller Strides. I've seen lots of my Stroller Strides friends come out of the program super lean, strong, and changed. I'm in! If all goes well I should be starting that up in mid to late May!! I refuse to waddle in baby fat for years after having this one! Also, this little boy finally has a name. Dmitri. YAY, I hated the ongoing name wars we were having at home!! Hubby and I both gave up the names we each loved but the other hated and chose one that we both accepted. I came up with the name so I allowed him to have the spelling. Sigh of relief. Now, let's get this third trimester done!!!

April 27th for me ! Good Luck to all you ladies!

I think I've reached the point where my belly is too full for normal sized meals and my belly button looks like it wants to start um, changing shape. EW! LOL.

I havent weighed myself in forever, but am struggling in the exercise front. This is non-preggo related as its just been busy, its been COLD (and dark at 5:00) and my gym is filled up with those dang 'resolutionaries' and there is NO PARKING. Man, I hate January. ;D

I totally get the exercise thing right now! I feel like it has been forever... between the craziness of Christmas, and then having a stomach virus AND THEN the flu, I was down and out, and now that I feel better enough to go to the gym, it is going to be packed! I can't wait until next month when the gym isn't so busy! I also ordered two prenatal workout DVD's from amazon, so if the gym is too crazy, I might be doing them a lot! I am pretty excited to try them. I got a prenatal ballet video and a prenatal yoga.

Am I the only one that feels more nausea now than in the first trimester? This is messing with me!

lol @ your belly button changing shape! That's so funny! i don't think I'll get an outie but I used to have a very deep, narrow belly button and now it's wide and shallow. I had an appt today so I will see how much I weigh. Normally when I go home for a week I gain a decent amount but then I just run it off when I get back to NJ, so this should be interesting since I'm not going to deprive the baby of food or workout more than I ought.

Obum88, no nausea in the last few weeks *knock on wood*... sorry that you're still struggling with that! Are you on any meds to help with morning sickness?

Just checking in....it's been awhile. I am on week 27 so that means next week starts my third trimester right???? It's crazy how fast it's going. We got the babys room painted last weekend and now I just need to go through my sons clothes (we didn't find out what we were having with him so we have a lot of gender neutral stuff). We didn't find out with this one either.

Hope all of you are doing well! I don't have my next appt. until the 28th but then after that I am on 2 week appts. CRAZY!

It is blowing my mind how fast everything is going! We are still working on remodeling, so baby STILL doesn't have a nursery until my new bedroom is done and we can shift everyone's bedrooms! I am starting to freak out because at this point during my other three pregnancies, the nurseries were all completely done! I am currently working on gathering my home birth supplies until I can get the bedrooms together! I hope that everyone is feeling well! I have been a little more tired, but other than that I feel great.

Nikki, I am freaking out in general! :-) It is going by sooo fast! Hope you get everything done soon!

My last shower is February 16th, but my in laws already sent me a cute play gym.

I decided to start painting the baseboards and windows in the nursery and well, it might never get finished. Such a pain, why did I START!?
