NEW!! new ways to stay updated

ladies.... i thought maybe we need to pick up the pace a little in this group... lol. I am always interested in how everyone is feeling. Mondays will be known as "Mood Mondays" so every monday there will be a post asking everyone how their "moods" are and if someone is down... i thought we could all try to go that extra mile to make them feel better. So please add the mood tracker to your profile and we will start this on monday.

Wednesday is now known as "Weigh-in Wednesday". Please add the weight tracker, if you're comfortable. and then post how far along you are and how much weight you've gained so far. you can also add the weight tracker to your post.

if anyone else has any ideas, please feel free to let me know. Im excited and looking forward to start this all on monday. thanks ladies!!!

Maybe all the September mamas are just a bit shy...  Not me!! Once I had my first ultrasound and heard a heartbeat, I literally started telling EVERYone I was pregnant. I showed my ultrasound pic to a random lady in the waiting room at my doctor's office - LOL! Now that I've gotten really comfortable w/the whole preggo thing (this is my first) I am a lot more open w/people about things - maybe too much! I've never in my LIFE told anyone how much I weigh, now the whole cyber world can see it! Thats okay though, the gals on this forum are so great... I'm up almost 18 pounds all together, weighing in at 188 now. But I involuntarily lost 15 pounds in my first trimester due to hyperemesis, so I'd probably weigh in higher had I not been so sick. My doctor doesn't want me to put on more than 30 pounds all together. That makes me a bit nervous because that only leaves me 11 pounds to gain, and I KNOW I'll be gaining more than that. It is ridiculous to think I'll only be gaining 1 pound a week until the due date. Oh well, I'm eating super healthy and trying my best to stay active, thats all I can do. I have my glucose test next week - UGH.... I'm nervous about that for some reason. Not the actual test, just the results. I just wanna get it over with!

I like your ideas and I'll add my tickers! I don't have a scale at home either but I'll update when I have dr. appointments. Seems like there aren't very many September mom-to-be's around here!
