Good morning ladies! Hope everyone is well! I am 8 weeks as of today and I woke up to a little belly pooch surprise! I know you tend to show earlier the 2nd time around but at 8 weeks!?! Sheesh! I didn't show until 7 months with baby #1. Well, hope everyone has a great day!

Good morning!
Thanks for the support, gals. I got in a good workout last night! Plan is some yoga tonight, or maybe strength/cardio again depending on how early I get home. Also taking Kadence to look at the big Christmas light display we have downtown! Should be fun!
Hope you are all well!!0 -
Hey Dixijo,
I'm 8 weeks today as well and my hubby is taking weekly photos of my growing bump so that we can look at them all together at the end - I've got a nice 'bump' coming to! I was shocked because like you I didn't show until I was about 6-7 months with my first (12 years ago!) Anyway I googled it and it seems that on consecutive pregnancies your uterus etc 'remembers' how it had to adapt and stretch from the first pregnancy so it does this straight away to make way for the baby. Also our tummy muscles aren't as intact as they were before so everything shows much quicker. I've only put on a lb in the last 8 weeks so I'm pretty sure it's not excess fat, there's definitely a bump there!
I'm going to try and keep squeezing into my 'normal' work trousers until we finish for Christmas but after that I think the maternity ones will be on!
Have a fabulous Friday xox0 -
Morning Everyone-
Worked late last night....Didn't work out but did get in a good meal in
However, DH and I have noticed that the last few days in a row I get sick right after dinner. We have moved dinner time up to 630 to make sure my stomach has time to settle before bed and still I get sick. I'm 2 days from hitting my 3rd trimester. Anyone ever experience somethign like this? Going to ask my doctor on Monday but thought I'd ask-
Hubby and I had a wonder conversatin about slowing down the next few months and trying to enjoy our ourselves. We've been so busy with the baby stuff, holidays, his new job that we have alreayd fallen into a routine per say.
Today's goals: Prenatal Yoga or Pilates which ever sounds good!0 -
Hey chicks. Happy Friday! Wow the board is so active; it's hard to keep up with everyone, but I'll try anyways.
Rosanna - Hope your hair turned out fab. You do have a head full! I'm glad your furniture issues are working out. We still don't have a crib either, but have a co-sleeper. I ordered our glider yesterday so it should be here this weekend!
Jaime - Holy crap! 120 pounds? That's like a person; good for you! Welcome!
Becca - I hear ya on the people commenting on pregnancy shape. Mostly people have been telling me I'm all belly and small which is nice to hear. However I have one girl I work with who says some days, "you look huge!" or refers to my "waddle". The girl is really sweet and I know she doesn't mean anything but seriously. I have another friend who is just a big smartass and she is always calling me fatty. I've known her forever and I know she is totally just being, well a smartass, but it is still annoying. Even though we know we are getting huge, we still don't necessarily want to hear about it. Jack Jax.....that's funny.
Kristy - Yay for good glucose results! I love the name too and think that is a very sweet way to remember your Dad.
I have had those days too where I've just done too much and am finally like, I don't care if I planned on doing more, I am done. I hope you got your cookies made.
Dixie - 6'4"?! You are over a foot taller than me! Good for you for embracing it. I work with a girl who is 6'5" and her husband is nearly 7' tall. Their kids are quite tall as well. How could they not be. Welcome!
Misti - So happy to hear your appointment went well! So the baby is already engaging at 33 weeks? Do they think she will come early? I'm glad the kidney issue went away too.
Kim - I hope your hormones are better today. I am typically a pretty mellow, non-irritable person, but some days the smallest things set me off.
Jessica - Hope you're enjoying FL!
Amanda - Glad you're feeling better and apparently being super productive! Good for you.
EngiAli - The skate treadmill sounds interesting. I have days where I am not getting all of my calories too as I am supposed to be eating over 2000 now, more if I work out. I am not stressing too much. If I have 500 calories left at the end of the day, I'm most likely going to eat some ice cream or something not so nutritional just for the sake on ingesting calories and I can't believe that is the best thing to do. I try to snack in the afternoon if I am low on calories. It has been such a shift in mindset since I have been a calorie counter for years.
Brenda - I'm glad the other hospital was good even if they don't have the tea and massages.
Denise - I hope your stress levels reduce. I am starting to get a little stressed at work too.
Kristin - Good goals. We all have crappy weeks.
Melissa - I'm glad things are going well for you and you got some peace of mind with the u/s.
Nichole - I hope you dilate quickly! If not, just be lazy this last week.
Jayln - Sorry to hear about your exposure and I hope everything goes well with that. Fruitcake huh? I got a tin of peppermint bark yesterday and I ate 3 of the 11 servings. Oops....
Kelly - Glad your appointment went well.
Ruth - Yes, the baby is an amazing thing! I only have gotten one ultrasound and that is all I will have, but every time I get to hear the heartbeat it's pretty cool. The u/s brought tears to my eyes and I am not a cryer. It is amazing that there is life growing in each of us.
Kim - I hope your aches subside. I have one prenatal yoga DVD but I forgot the name of it. It is very easy and I've only done it a couple times.
Dixie and Sarah - I have heard with 2nd pregnancies the showing starts earlier. My sister was amazed by how quick her pooch came on.
I think I got everyone. Shew!
AFM - I had a super productive night last night. I came home and did 20 minutes of strenght and about 30 on the treadmill. I incorporated 3 minute running intervals at a lower speed than on Monday and also did some inclines. My back and hips seemed to appreciate the lower speed and shorter intervals. The only things that was uncomfortable was the pressure in my lower belly. So we'll see how long I can hold out with the running. Also, and maybe TMI, but everytime I have gotten on the treadmill in the last 2 weeks I've had to get off to poop. Luckily my basement bathroom is literlly 10 steps from the treadmill. As I have issues in this department, I'm not really bugged by it other than having to take a break mid cardio session. Oh well. After my workout, I got all my familys' present wrapped so I can ship them off today. Then I made dinner and by the time I was done with my niece's gift it was 9:30 so I ate a cupcake and went to bed.
Tonight I have dinner plans with some girlfriends. I am somewhat looking forward to it. The restaurant has an art gallery in the basement so we always have another drink or two and look at art for like an hour. I know me being sober and them not, I'll be tired, my feet will probably hurt, and I'll want to cut it short. I guess since I'm the DD, I can. Tomorrow night we have a family thing and that's about it. I wanted to buy a bunch of stuff of our registry this weekend, but I'm waiting on our discount card to complete the registry and have been told it doesn't mail out until about a month before the due date. Really?! That seems ridiculous. So I may just start washing and going through our newborn clothes and get as much done in the nursery as I can with what we have.
Well I have taken entirely too much time doing non-work tasks this morning so I better get to it. I will most likely be MIA this weekend as usual, but I'll keep reading. Have a great weekend all!

Thanks guys for all the kind words and support. We plan to do lots of walking this weekend along with other natural methods to help induce labor. Today is my last day of work for 12 weeks, wohoo! I just need the baby now:0) Good news is that my midwife told me yesterday that her head is engaged which should help the process. I'm dealing with some sciatic pain. I had a really bad episode last night right before bed. I literally all of a sudden dropped to my knees it was so sudden and strong. Hannah must be pressing right near my sciatic nerve. I take it as a good sign that she is really low. Gotta stay positive:0)
Hope you all have a great day! Sounds like you all are staying active and doing healthy things for you and baby, keep it up!

Good morning ladies! Hope everyone is well! I am 8 weeks as of today and I woke up to a little belly pooch surprise! I know you tend to show earlier the 2nd time around but at 8 weeks!?! Sheesh! I didn't show until 7 months with baby #1. Well, hope everyone has a great day!
My belly has "popped" now, but I wonder if it's really baby or if it's gas. :blushing: This is my first, so I figured I wouldn't show until I was like 5 months along or something. I don't know what to expect. I've heard that the second or third time around, you show eariler. Yay for baby bumps!!0 -

In the beginning it is a lot of gas and bloat. One day it will go down and you will worry that something is wrong and then all of a sudden you will really be showing:0) It's completely normal.0 -
Thank you ladies for all of the helpful info. It may be that I'm a little bloated too....I've only gained 1lb so far....and I swear it must have all went to the boobage area...boy do they HURT lol! I don't mind if I do show earlier, I just hope he/she slows down a little after making an appearance...don't wanna get too huge!0

Well just remember everyone is different and carry their babys different. I had a "pooch" for the longest time and I was fine with having a pouch. I'm now 1 day from being 28 weeks and I seemed to have POPPED overnight. I even had a few people at work this morning tell me that the baby has definitely made an appearance!
Either way, it's exciting to see your tummy expand. Minus the stretch marks.....:grumble: :laugh:0 -
Hey there ladies! I've been following along with everyone as much as I possibly can... You all seem to be doing pretty awesome!
Charlee is napping so I thought I'd pop in really quick and say hello
To the person who mentioned the Bradley Method...Al and I took the classes and we learned so much. I had already been in the frame of mind that I wanted a natural, unmedicated birth, but taking the class I realized that this was the only way I wanted to go. Before I had said "well if it hurts too bad I will get an epidural"...well guess what, of course it hurts "too bad" lol That is why it is called "labor"! At the end of the day I really learned to just listen to my body and do what my body told me to do to get through the pain of it all. Having a supportive husband and nurse was key as well. I had a 9 hour labor from first contraction to baby and only had to push through 3 contractions to deliver her. It was a pretty amazing experience and one that I plan on for baby number two (in a few more years of course!).
Well I am slowly but surely getting back into some kind of routine. Charlee is a month old today and we are still working out the kinks, but exercise is such an important part of my life and I feel like something is missing when I don't get to do it. Charlee is of course the priority, but finding time and energy to workout has taken some creativity these days. So even though most days you feel drained and you just wanna lay on the couch...I urge you to push past the "lazies" and get in those workouts! Cause when baby comes it will be all but impossible in the beginning and you will be even more tired WITH a baby and having to figure out your workouts. It is hard...but so worth it. I can honestly say I feel like supermom on the days where I can get in a workout and a shower and eat without having a screaming baby! lol
I hope you all the best and I wish you all a very Merry Christmas! Keep up the awesome work and take care of yourself and those beautiful babies! 0 -
I've been lurking, and catching up on reading all of the posts. Sounds like all you ladies are doing great!
This pregnancy has been one heck of an emotional roller coaster. The good news is that I am 4 days away from my last and final trimester. I look back and can't believe that we've made it this far, even after the complications that we have gone through. A few days ago, another one got thrown at us. I have gestational diabetes. Not a big surprise, my mom was a severe type 1 diabetic and I've been borderline since I was a teenager. Heck, I barely passed the early screening they did on me back in the first trimester (failed the 1 hour and barely passed the 3 hour). I go and talk to a nutritionist today in about 3 1/2 hours, hopefully they can give me a diet plan that will help me control my glucose levels. My goal is to remain off of insulin treatments. I've been testing my levels for the past 48 hours and 95% of them are in the green. I did have a high number after dinner last night, but that's because I threw in some candied yams in an effort to try and eat my calories for the day. Big mistake on my part. I've been limiting my carb intake to about 60 per meal and 30 per snack, and that seems to be working for me. Only downside is I have 200-500 calories left over for the day that I can't fill (not to mention a full stomach). I've already lost an entire 3 lbs in the last 48 hours because of it.
Oh well, roll with the punches, one day at a time, cross bridges as I get to them and work my hardest to make sure that I'm healthy for Kaiden. There are so many more problems I have to worry about with the delivery and birth and also Kaiden's health. Even if all things go smoothly, he could be born with complications now. I do have to say that my husband has been great through all of this, letting me cry on his shoulder when I need the breakdown and being so supportive. He's already told me that I need to cook how I need to and he'll eat it with me. So proud to have him.0 -
Discovered yet another food I am not supposed to have today: parsley. Discovered this over a side of delicious tabouli (which is sometimes made with cilantro, so my tabouli could have been totally fine... but I haven't even checked, but in all likelihood cilantro is also bad for pregnancy). I'm starting to think it might be easier to make a list of foods I am allowed to have. Here are the things I'm told not to eat so far:
ceasar salad dressing
lunch meat
pate (not really a problem on this one)
seafood
parsley
papaya
pineapple
soft cheese.. no brie, feta, or blue cheese
raspberry
coffee
herbal tea, but I'm drinking chamomile anyway. I can't find anything that says it's bad. Saying "no herbal tea" is like saying "no soup"
artificial sweeteners
licorice
bean sprouts
One site says "do not eat any raw fruits or vegetables" : WHAT? My diet would be so bad without ANY raw fruits and veggies.
peanuts (although I hear that is just if you have a history of food allergies in your family)
Have I left anything out? I'm trying to be as cautious as possible since this is my first pregnancy and since I'm already somewhat at risk purely because of my weight. Eating properly is really starting to stress me out.0 -

Lunch meat you can still eat, it just has to be heated through to kill any potential bacteria hiding in there. I eat it all the time in my lunch time sandwiches. Seafood you have to be careful with, but you can still eat. Fish is fine as long as it's only a couple of servings a week and it's low mercury (aka not the meaty tasting fishes). Raw is out because of the chance of getting sick and food poisoning. Soft cheeses can still be eaten as long as they are made with pasteurized milk, which most made in the states are. It's the ones made with unpasteurized milk that you can't have. Coffee is actually OK in moderation. You are allowed 200mg of caffeine a day, which is like 2 cups I believe. Herbal tea I have never been told no, it's my night time drink before I go to bed, Might be the caffeine thing though. Raw fruits and veggies just make sure they are washed and clean before eating. Nuts are fine too, I've never heard any different. Some of the rest on that list I'm not sure about, or hadn't heard anything different.0 -
Hi mommies,
We went to the Dr friday, and everything is ok.
I told the Dr about the BHC & he did a check and told me that the baby's head is down and that could have cause those contractions but everything is ok. TG! We heard her heartbeat again, didn;t get to see her on the sonogram, but her heartbeat makes us melt.
I will be going every 2 weeks from now until the end of Jan.
It was so busy at work yesterday that I couldn't respond to the board. Then at night we had a pre birthday dinner out with my guys.
Today we washed, organized, cleaned the playyard, swing & other items we got for the baby as well as lots of home cleaning and I am pooped.
We took a 15 min walk last night, it felt good to move these legs. lol
I'll take more time to respond tomorrow, going to our nephews kiddie party.

Had a sneak peek at my 30 week pumpkin today (free). She's looking well, active. Got tons of u/s pictures. The pumpkin turned head down finally, and hopefully she won't turn it back up again. Lately my tummy has been her happy playground, seems like all day/night long. :-)

Hey ladies:)
Wow! I can't believe it is Sunday already!!!
I drove hubby to a party for his one of his long time buddies who got his PhD on Friday....a kegger. It was over an hour away, and I wasn't looking forward to being the pregnant, bloated girl not drinking at the party, and thought not having a beer with everyone else would be hard. Surprisingly, I had no desire for beer, although I had one small sip of his, and totally didn't miss it. I was really nice to see our friends, but boy, I was tired all day yesterday after getting home at 2 am.
So, yesterday was a TV marathon, and a little Christmas shopping, then my fav chinese rest. for dinner:)
I found a Chicco Key Fit 30 travel system brand new in the box at a baby resale store for $120, so I put a $20 deposit on and will go back to pick it up after my Dec 28th sonogram....I didn't want to jinx myself and get it earlier....but sooo excited to get such a great deal on the exact system I wanted:)
As far as what not to eat -- my doc hasn't said anything. Of course I limit my coffee, but he actually instructed me to keep drinking it since he had read a lot of research on how women drinking coffee have lower chances of Post partum depression.
I still eat lunch meat occasionally, but it is fresh sliced form the Publix and I eat it that day. From what I understand the pre-packaged lunch meats are the biggest carriers of listeria...but then again what about all of those fruit scares??? I have never been a big fan of sushi, so I am not concerned about that.
Gotta run....be back later:)0 -
Demwitted- I eat all of those things but artificial sweeteners and I sneak some xylitol which is in Trident every so often since doc said it was ok. Cheese is alright as long as it's from pasteurized milk, which is most of the cheese in US. Don't know where you are though. I heat up cold cuts for 45 seconds in the microwave and that's usually enough to get them steaming. As far as everything else including parsley, never heard any of those problems.0

Evening ladies-
I have my 3rd (and hopfully final) Gestational diabetes exam tomorrow morning. Can't wait to see what the doctor says as I'm now 7 months. Hard to believe.... Hope everyone is doing well and remember this is a new week! New challenges & goals for all of us.
My husbands family had their annual Christmas party this weekend. Here is our 2011 Christmas picture. Enjoy!

Demwitted- Don't be too worried about the "Don'ts" list you find online. Talk to you doctor about it but mine said the only thing that was an absolute no no was alcohol. He said eat everything in moderation. If you want to have fish, have it once every couple of weeks. Have 1 cup of regular coffee or tea a day not 1 pot and things like that. Make sure you are taking these things you find on the internet into your Dr. before you go and get all stressed about them!
Babeed- awesome picture!
AFM- My husband and I went to our mutual friends birthday party on Friday and had a blast. It was an ugly sweater party so we made our own sweaters instead of trying to find one. We each had half of Ruldoph on our shirts line up so when we stood together we made a whole.
I thought I had felt baby move for the first time a few days ago and the sensation occured multiple times in an hour that day. Then the next day I only felt it once and I haven't felt it in 3 days now. I figure I must have just got lucky the first time or I'm crazy and making things up in my head. It's still pretty early for a 1st timer to feel them so I'm trying not to get all worried about it. Have my next pre-natal appointment and I'm very excited to hear the little ducks heartbeat again. Then I'm totally stoked for our 18 week ultrasound on the 3rd. I really didn't want to find out the sex of the baby before I was pregnant but now I am pregnant I'm absolutely dying to know. SOOOO I hope that we can actually see and my OCD can calm down a little bit.
I feel my placenta brain has hit with full vengence this week, wholly cow. I felt only slightly better after reading in my What to expect book that you don't just feel like you are getting dumber there is scientific proof you lose intellegence when pregnant. I am not looking forward to another 6 months of scatterbrainedness haha. The organizational freak is freaking out for lack of a better term.
Well I had an awesome weekend. We went out for supper with my parents yesterday and then to a movie. Then my in-laws came over today for lunch and an afternoon visit. Was nice to see everyone and catch up a little bit before Christmas.
I hope everyone else had a fantastic weekend!

Good morning ladies,
I hope you've all had a great weekend?
My turned into a complete food fest! Hubby and I went to a works Christmas party on Friday night - 3 course Christmas dinner which I ended up eating most of hubby's as well as my own! (He's a veg-dodger!) then on Saturday night we had an Indian takeaway (a VERY spicy chicken jalfrezi) and then Sunday was date day so we headed for a meal before the cinema and once again COMPLETELY over-ate on all things naughty (chicken wings, garlic bread, chocolates.....the list goes on and on!) so today is a new day and a fresh 'healthy' start! My hubby doesn't help as he's turned into a 'feeder' overnight! I have to be strong.....I have to be strong....hahaha! I've stocked myself up with fruit to snack on so he can't tempt me with his Christmas selection box of chocolates!
I had an evening of tummy cramps and sharp pains last night so I got the hot water bottle out and relaxed....all is back to normal today.
I've got my ankle weights back on and determined to walk 4 miles a day this week (apart from Friday as we're all on half day).
Have a great week everyone

Hi everyone. I took a few days away and wow you all move fast! Hope you are all doing well. These last few days have been chaotic. We were in the hospital yesterday. I was contracting every 2 minutes which the nurse said will probably be the closest they come together. My outer part of cervix is dilated to 3 cm and my inner part is only at 1 cm. She said it was like a tunnel. I am 50% effaced and baby is at -2 station. They kept me on the monitor to track contractions and then sent me walking around for about an hour. Unfortunately, nothing happened with change for my cervix so they sent us home. I got a good nights sleep last night and I am going to clean like crazy today and might do some shopping. This afternoon I have a routine ob check so we will see where I am at by then. Hopefully I can start contracting again but stronger to have some more cervical change. Thinking happy baby and delivery thoughts : )

Nichole and Elizabeth - I hope those babies come soon!
Quick check in for me before my meetings all morning....
The weekend was very productive. I squeezed in a walk/run on Friday before dinner with my girlfriends. The running is strangely feeling better again. I'm still doing short intervals, but maybe my body is getting used to it again. Anyways, I had no intentions of a workout so glad I got one in. Saturday I cleaned floors on the 1st and 2nd floors and both bathrooms, kitchen, did laundry, and did some organizing and putting away of stuff in the nursery. That night we had a family party and Sunday I did some more cleaning and got all my Christmas and Thank You card for both showers in envelopes. We also bought our crib and found a cute bedding set on clearance for $75! Our glider should come today and next week Eric should be putting it all together. He will be working on art pieces for his 9 brothers and sisters' Christmas gifts this week so he is super busy. So the nursery should be done soon!
Here are my goals for the week. I have a ton of dinners and lunches out this week so I'll do my best on smart eating.
strength 1x
Cardio (treadmill run/walk and/or dog walk) 4x
Be sensible in holiday indulgences
Hope you all have a great day. I'll check back this afternoon.

HI everyone. Sorry I have been MIA lately. I have had a LOT of work and been staying late til like 8 o'clock sometimes. So needless to say, its just been crazy. Its taken me a few days to read where I left off because this board moves FAST!! HA!
It will take me forever, to respond to everybody so I'm not going to but know that I have read everyone's blog.
Update on my situation: I had been on restrictions since going into pre term labor the day before Thanksgiving and I was SO over it! I had an appt the 15th last week and was hoping and praying that I could go back to regular exercise and off restrictions! NO can do. I have been put on complete bed rest. WTH! Do you know how aggravating that is. Midwife checked me and said cervix was mushy, etc. and that I needed to be completely down until 36 weeks. After arguing with her for a few minutes she put me on half days at work since I have a desk job and I will then be working from home. So I finally said, please clarify bedrest for me. She said, when you get home, you are in bed! I'm like geez, GREAT!! when there is SOOOO much to do. I honestly feel fine. So I guess this is a little weird for me. So, I'm listening to her and hanging on for another 3 weeks until I'm able to get back to normal.
I think Nkster said she is over being pregnant and I AM TOO!!! This not exercising, being in bed crap just has me very frustrated. She doesn't think I'll get to my due date, Feb 5th. So we'll see. Hubby has been working on the house and getting everything ready. Working on nursery, etc. (this is because he procrastinated) painting the house. Lots of work to be done and I can't even do anything about it!!!
Besides that, I only gained 1lb so I'm up 24lbs and lets see if this trend will keep going. I hope I will not go over 30lbs. We'll see since my goal was 25lbs and that doesn't look like it'll happen.
Goals: Drink more water!!! (have not been able to do more than 32 oz a day )
watch EVERYTHING I put in my mouth!!! since I can't really exercise
Strech! I feel really soar from not doing anything.
