How are all of the August mommies? :)

  I'm 22 weeks, due august,12th w/ Robbie J.R. :)  I've been wondering how all of the August mommies are doing. Any new symptoms of pregnacy coming on? I know my bellybutton is slowly starting to level, and I feel my baby actually "rolling" now. I can tell the difference between the kicks and him rolling and when I look my belly I can see it too!  My appetite has increased quite a bit too, and I'm always thirsty.    It does seem that most august mommies are having boys :)

Hey-doing great! 21w2d and feeling baby REALLY moving and kicking. Seeing my belly move is awesome! Nothing really to complain about-feeling pretty comfortable at this point. Lots of dreams lately again...they just crack me up! I dreamt last night that I could see my little boy pressing his face and hands against my belly above my belly button (where I was feeling big kicks when I fell asleep, watching a show about how people in India worship rats). He was trying to get out because he was afraid of something. I somehow was able to get my hand in there and there was a rat biting at his toes!! I grabbed the rat and it bit onto my finger. I was able to shake it off but then it chased me! MAN!

Hi ladies!  I am due July 29th, but who knows I may be an August mommy.  I'm 24W2D.  My belly button has flattened out.  I will have an "outie" by next month.  I am going Friday for my glucose test  and to have a quickie US just to see what the baby is.  I am enjoying this part of my pregnancy.  The sick days are over, but my belly is still small enough to be comfortable!  :-)  I've gained two or three pounds so far, but my belly is starting to expand quickly.

Supose to be due end of July.. now the doc is telling me Aug 6th! ah well. He'll come out when he wants too, date doesn't really mean THAT much. I had a hell of a time up until 1-2 weeks ago. Still feel sick once in a while but I'm so use to it by now that it doesn't bother me.  Baby kicking like crazy, starting to see my belly move a lot now too!! Gotta love it! I think I can say we're ahead of schedule planning wise. Nursery is painted, some clothes are bought, crib is here, carseat and stroller.  Maybe I should slow down, because I'll have nothing to do soon! Only downfall is that I'm starting to feel left out by friends, none are married/ have kids so they have all-nighters. Me? usually fast alseep by 10pm.  I think I need to find some soon-to-be mommy groups in my area, meet people who can relate to our new lifestyle. Amazing how things change so fast!!

Hey! I'm due on August 28 with my little boy! I go in tomorrow for my 20 week u/s and am hoping he's healthy and is still a boy! lol I am really not feeling much movement....doctor assured me that it's fine at this point. (Though I'm still not convinced!) I have the nursery all cleaned out and somewhat organized. We have our swing, travel swing, carseat/stroller system and lots of clothes! :) I also have been buying diapers when they are on sale in a variety of sizes so that the money is spent now when we have it instead of after baby! :) Appetite's enormous but no other real symptoms!

I am due August 24.  I am having a litle girl.  I have just about everything bought and will do the nursery in May.  I am making the bedding, diaper bag, diaper liners and the coming home outfit.

I am now on diclectin, stopeed the vomiting but now I have VERY low blood pressure.

Hi everyone, I am due Aug 4th but we did not find out the sex of the baby, like most of you, I feel good, if it was not for the little peanut moving around I would just think I gained about 8lbs!! But I am sure we are all in for a treat our third trimester!! Nursery is painted and now I am deciding what kind of decor should I go with since we are not finding out the sex, I am trying to put neutrals such as green and yellow and than add the pink or blue in after the baby is born. Let's see other than that, I have not started wearing maternity clothes as of yet, I still have pants, and two pairs of jeans that still fit, but with Summer around the corner, there is nooooo way I will be wearing clothes from last summer!! Hey good reason to shop!!

Good luck everyone and have a great baby week!

Hey! Just an idea for your nursery....we are going with the "alphabet soup" pattern from Babies R Us. It's brightly colored and could be for either a girl or boy. It is kind of expensive....but we plan to keep it for our next baby, too. Good job on not finding out the sex lol........I'd love the surprise but I got tooooo anxious!!

I due Aug 30th with our little boy.  I feel fine except for not getting enough sleep at night due to getting up every two hours for a bathroom break but other than the normal aches and pains I feel great.  Everyone take care.

I'm trying so hard to save a few things to get later, but I want to get them all now! I'm saving the pac'n'play, high chair,diaper bag  and some of the bathing items for later. I just got the carseat friday due to it being on sale :) I'm starting to decorate a little, I decorated his toy box yesterday  I just can't come up with another nickname for him, I'm not to fond of R.J.  I guess just Robbie J.R ?

I'm in my 21st week right now (I think I have that right).  I'm due August 27th.  Other than lots of cramping and not feeling the baby move as much as I'd hoped right now doing alright.  Kinda worried but hopefully we'll hear the heartbeat at my appointment tomorrow when they reevaluate my mood stabilizers.

Hey! I'm due August 28 and I am just 20 weeks today......so I would think you'd only be 20 weeks, 1 day!

we used snugglebugs for ds. it is so cute and could be used for a girl or boy. after ds was born i found scrapbook paper and cutouts at michael's to make picture frames.
here are some pics of the set:

due aug 17, ob says we will sched the csec for the 15. i am still trying to decide on decor for the room. we are having a boy. i have already bought clothes and still have everything from ds (winter baby). i am still looking for baby names. suggestions are appreciated. middle name will be jose and more than likely will use initials. ds is a.j. all the grandsons born in my husbands family have had the name jose after their late grandfather. we have 2-aj's, bj & rj. so now i am stumped on the name.

symptoms:
baby is moving around all the time. having to go to the restroom more and more. feeling fuller faster. everything seems to be pretty normal.
can't wait till aug!!

i'm due to have my little girl on August 13. I have been feeling good, and suddenly put on a lot of weight the last 2 weeks. i don't think i've been eating more- it just seems to be going straight to my gigantic belly. i have been slowing down a bit the last 2 weeks. i feel very heavy and my energy levels not quite the same. i plan to work on the baby's room at the end of april when i'm off for a week for spring break. baby moves all the time, but always seems to stop when dh puts his hand on my belly. biggest stresser right now other than finances is choosing a name! dh shoots down all of my ideas, and i'm not big on his ideas.
