anyone 7 months preggo or around that

im 7 months, ugh 28 weeks tommorrow, and im exhausted, my son is driving me up a wall, he just turned 13 months, so im running back and forth at him, expecially when dh is at work all day. My tummy starts to hurt. He is just into everything its so cute though. My daughter doesn't move very much, my son moved soooo much since 18 weeks, this one nothing, not even big kicks yet, very weird! she must be lazy or calm, unlike my son. Im just feeling scared since i only have like 2 months to go.I feel like im taking all the attention away from my son, and it makes me sad. is it normal to feel this way when having another child?

You know what, they let me bring a pack and play crib into the hospital and let my daughter stay with me!!  SO maybe ask them!I thought forsure my daughter would have hit my son to be honest, but she surprised us all and kissed him!  

When my daughter was born, my nephew would get mad when my dad would hold her and not him!  And he got over it!  The more he was around her

i hope so! my sister just a had a lil girl she will be 3 months and when my son sees her he hits her! then he will kiss her! he gets confused and mad when someone holds and talks to her, but then he get used to her, so i hope hes okay with his sister, and i hope i dont get depressed after the delivery with leaving my son and stayin in the hospital, he just depends on me soooo much! i feel hurt for him, but i guess every mom feels the same way. i cant wait until its over! it feels like ive been pregnant forever

I am 25 1/2 weeks at the moment, BUT

I wanted to tell youwith my first two kids..  I got pregnant with my son when my daughter was 3 months old.  So I know how you feel when it comes to feeling like your taking attention away from your son.  But trust me, when he see's her, he will likely fall in love just like you!  

When my son was born, my daughter was there to see the entire thing, and as soon as they got him wrapped up, she kissed him!  And she was 10 months 3 weeks old.  That's how far part they are!  Today, they hug each other, kiss each other, hold hands, they are the best of friends.  They re inseperable!  And now i'm getting them both used to a little sister!  My son says..."My baby sis sis!"  and my son says, "My baby!"  LOL  They are too cute!

So it's a normal feeling your having!  But believe me, as long as he knows and you tell him he is having a sister, he will be more than close and happy with her!!!  =)

I am 31 weeks right now, and my youngest is 10, however my last 2 were 12 mths apart so I understand how you feel. I am having another boy. I already have 2 girls and a boy. My girls NEVER moved as much as my boys for some reason. This boy moves more than all three of the others combined so all kids are different as are all pregnancies. I wouldn't worry too much. Talk to your Dr about it and they might want you to do kick counts or something which they can explain how they want that done. I was always chasing after my son while pregnant with my daughter. She ended up coming a litlle early and it might have been because I was not able to rest as much, but she was fine. You really need to be careful picking him up and bending too much though. Just try to find times to lay down and put your feet up during the day somehow. You getting there and this is the uncomfortable time so find things to do with your son like sitting on the floor and playing with cars, reading books, something that you can do while sitting too.

Good luck hope this helps...
