Whoops...there is only an hour left to Monday. Oh well..

EDD March 7
Week 16 1/2

Nausea and vomiting...though going away a little bit. I have a feeling I won't get away from it completely though. My breasts are HUGE. I didn't even realize. I went up an entire size already. I went to Victoria Secret and had them measure me because my bras weren't working anymore and then I found out why...hmm...
Constipated still...very tired about middle of the day...slight increase in appetitte.

[AmyC311]

oh yes and we are having a girl. (which most of you probably already know.) I can't believe I forgot to list that!! :)

14 weeks (monday) my due date is between march 22-24, each Dr gives me a different day.
Boobs are still sore and growing. Belly has popped, otherwise feel great. Except for dealing with my chronic back pain that has flared up. not a good time to show its ugly face

Starting to experience more nausea from time to time nowadays, never really have too much of an appetite, nosebleeds (about 1/week), tired during by mid-day but can't ever seem to get a good nights sleep (I hate sleeping on my side), no change yet in breast size which I find very odd, tummy is sticking out a bit now so I bought a bella band for my pants...looks like I only have a couple more weeks in my normal clothes.

Honestly, I don't feel pregnant.  I am feeling really good.  We were supposed to find out the sex this Friday (17w5d) but they said that was going to be too early to be 100% sure, so we had to move it to Oct. 3 (18w4d).  Oh well!  

I am super uncomfortable sleeping on my left side (never use to be prior to being pregnant).  Now, I toss and turn all night.  I am a freaking insomniac!!

I just got back from my doctor's appt. and the heartbeat was 151!!  Everything looks good, but I think I'm gaining too much weight!  Yikes!  Too many carbs...my body's not used to it!  But I feel pretty good so that's okay!  Hope all is well with everyone!

EDD March 22nd
14 weeks 3 days

Still crazy sick.  Dr decided to extend my progestrone medication two more weeks.    We find out the sex on October 31st.  Starting to get baby hand downs from family.  Makes everything much more real.  I'm looking things realizing a little baby will be sleeping in there.  Wondering where I'm going to put everything that's mine and everything's that's the baby's.  The realization is really starting to hit home that we're going to have a baby.  A baby.  It just blows my mind.  I'm going to get a flu shot soon, anyone else going to?  My doctor said that it's up to me but everything I read says that pregnant women really should.  I'm having a little trouble finding one that doesn't have preserveatives and that isn't a live virus but if I haven't found it on my own then I will ask my Dr at my next appt.  

[ovaz129]

I am getting a flu shot.  It is important to get one during pregnancy.  I am not sure what you mean by you are trying to find one that isn't a live virus?  As far as I know... the vaccine has to be a live virus for it to be a vaccine.  I haven't heard of one that isn't... maybe your doctor knows more.

[AmyC311]

I am getting a flu shot too. I am just going to wait until middle october or closer to november because I read that was the best time to be sure it lasts all flu season. Last February I got the worst flu of my life! And I ALWAYS get the flu shot...but I read that they guessed the wrong strain of flu and that is why there was the flu pandemic last year. Anyways, lets hope they get it right this year!!

I am glad to read that several of you are getting your belly. I kinda am too...some days more than others but I didn't know if it was too early to have a belly?? I guess not! I am glad. :) I haven't really gained weight but my weight has switched from other parts to my belly. Being so sick has made it hard to have excess weight..but I am sure that won't last long.

[evthing4reason]

I'll be getting the flu shot, I called the Dr and they said they can't give the dates for the flu clinic till mid Oct. Here all women are told to get the flu shot

Hi! Sorry I am late - I am traveling this week for work.

EDD: Mar 19
15 weeks

I think I did pop - well - i can't fake the pooch anymore - it is just there. I came to our San Francisco office this week and people were TALKING ABOUT ME ;-) asking others if i was preggers. haha. I love that! I still get headaches, i will go a few days without one and then it comes and lasts for 2 days. My boobs are still livin large - and to be honest, they don't look that pretty - all veiny and even red from capilaries. The color is all weird. At night my veins kick up ALL OVER - bright blue - in my arms, hips, boobs - EVEN belly!

I still have lots of little burps, but it is subsiding a bit. My 16 week is next Friday - just can't wait to see the little peanut and know things are going well.

I decided to wear black as much as i can - black and fitting stuff / cotton stuff. Slimming but still shows the belly. Being in the office all week, I can not wear my normal sweats.
