Half way there!

[NicMom]

We're all right around the 20 week marker, some right before and some after. I just wanted to say congrats on making it half way!!!!

I think the third trimester starts around 26 weeks and that's just right around the corner. Boy if I thought I had baby fever before I got pregnant! It's nothing compared to how I feel now I just can't wait to hold that little monkey baby in my arms.

Hey ladies, WoW Hoo, i am so excited and amazed of how time is flying, it seems just like yesterday i was ttc to get a BFP. My little girl is so active, i cant wait until DF and DS can feel all the kicks and punches.  I plan on doing the 3d u/s, i want my son to share that experience of seeing his sister.  They did do a 3d u/s at my anatomy scan but it looked so scarey i didnt want a copy of it, and the baby would not be still enough to just get a face shot.

I must admitt, i did buy a few items, that was winter items that was on clearance.  I too am still nervous and hope i dont go into preterm labor.  My best friend sister friend had her baby in January, she was due this month, she just got to bring the baby home yesterday.  3 months early, that is crucial bcuz not all babies make it.

Like Juana said, im also glad to be sharing my experiences with you group of ladies, we have came a long way and have went threw many obsticales to get where we are.

Hugz to everyone:)

Hey ladies! Congrats to all! I am in disbelief myself and I can't halp but get happier with each kick or twinge from my Sweet Potato!! I want to do the 3d/4d ultrasound, but haven't decided if I will.  I too am waiting until I am completly out of the danger zone before I do any shopping...with my fibroid, I could go nto preterm labor, so I am just praying that it will behave until August at least!!

It is such a pleasure to be sharing this experience with my cyber family!! I look forward to logging on each day to see your updates, read your thoughts and to share mine as well!!

Woo Hoo Ladies! We are waddling in the right direction!!  

Love and hugs to you all!!

I wasn't going to do the 3d, but now I'm thinking about it. I'm just eager to see what the baby looks like!

I know what you mean Stacey, its like that BFP HPT was just last week, its so exciting!! i am with the rest of you, 24 weeks couldnt come fast enough. i love wednesday because i take my shot, then im ok till about sunday, starting monday, i slowly start freaking out because i feel like complete cr*p on mondays so i just cant wait till wednesday (besides that wedensday is my week over)

I cant wait for us all to reach our due dates!! how many of you plan on doing the 3d/4ds in the next couple weeks?

((hugs)) to my girls

Yay!  Congrats ladies.  I can't believe we are at the half way point already.  It seems like only yesterday we were at 6 or 7 weeks!

35MomofBoys - I had no idea they cried in the womb!  That is the sweetest thing.  

I have also been doing the count down to 24 weeks.  I am not buying anything until I get there....after having some complications I am just focusing on being healthy and making sure the little guy is heathy before stressing about all the "stuff" to buy.  I am 21 weeks today so 3 more weeks to go....woo hoo!

Have a great weekend all!

Congrats everyone!!!  It is so relieving to be halfway.  I didn't realize the every two week appt. is coming up in June!!  
I asked my doc about when the 3rd trimester started at my last appt.  I couldn't remember from my first pregnancy and my books differ.  He said it starts at the beginning of week 28.  The second trimester is the longest one.

[NicMom]

That's so cool I didn't know they practice crying too. She must have been saying....waaahhh wwaaahhh I want some chocolate, mom eat chocolate waaaahhh.

I've been the same way I'm just counting down the weeks now hoping to make it to 27 weeks without any preterm labor.

[chantal21]

Congrats everyone!! I still have another 2 1/2 weeks, but it's fast approaching! I can't believe it. I know it's different from doc to doc, but I was told the 3rd trimester begins at 28 weeks. I think some say 27 weeks. I guess it just depends! We are getting there girls!

I am so very huge now, girls (carrying these twins...)  And I still have 4 more months to grow!!  I don't know how I'm ever going to make it!  Miserably I guess, but it's all worth it!

The marker I am most looking forward to is 24 weeks.  That's the viability threshold.  I had this nightmare once that I m/c right before 20 weeks!  (My dreams have been wild during this pregnancy...)  We have all grown to love these little dears so much.  The closer i get to 24 weeks, the better my confidence feels.

During my anatomy scan the other day one of my baby girls appeared to be crying for a few minutes.  Really!  You could see her little mouth and jaw moving, plain as day.  And then she stuck her little thumb in her mouth.  It was so sweet.  Melted my heart right then and there.

Oh I just can't wait to see all our babies!!!  Prayers that we all carry close to full term babies, though!!  (((Hugs!)))

I know!  It seemed as though the first trimester would never end!!!  But now everything seems to be moving so fast.  It actually occured to me last week that in June, we will begin our every 2 week appts. with our docs.  Wow!!  Already!!!  Soooooo exciting :)
