Belly Buddies *5/22*

[mikaleen]

Please forgive any oversights...it's been a while since I've done a list, and it's been 5 weeks since the last list, my math skills have degenerated over the years, but here goes....


CONGRATULATIONS BRIDGETTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so absolutely thrilled to welcome Bridgette over here!  For 2 years we have shared Bridgette's long journey to reach this most wonderful moment.  We know her cycle better than our own.  We have laughed with her, cried with her, been frustrated with her, vented with her, learned from her, prayed for her and have cherished the friendship of a wonderful woman, who even in her down times found the strength to lift everyone else up and offer her unwavering support to all of us who have needed it.  It is with tears of happiness in my eyes that I get to put Bridgette's name in it's rightful place, on the Belly Buddies list for a looong nine months of a whole new type of anxiety for our dear friend. We're ready for you Bridgette, let your journey begin!  ;)~

Done Buns!

Amy-Congrats on finally finding out that you are having a girl :)  I swear Kirk is going to have DH's nose and chin by looking at the u/s lol. I've actually read that there is some truth to being more hormonal and having a girl. It really makes me think my m/c was a girl, as I was a raving lunatic!

annalc-Thanks, and congrats on finding out your having a boy as well! Hope Iceland was fantastic :)

trying-Ha, ha. I cry over food too lol! Seems like a common pattern with us pregnant women! What movie did you go see? I went and saw grownups on Monday, it was hilarious.

[cocacolapanda]

I had those pains for about 3-4 weeks before I delivered, from what I understand it's mostly pressure from the baby sitting/riding low.  I found sitting on a birthing ball instead of a regular chair helped a lot with those pains.

[peterjl]

Just a quick question for those who have experienced labor before- I've been having a lot of pressure and sharp, shooting pains in my lower pelvis.  I know they are not contractions, because I'm having some of those as well.  Any advice?  I have had c-sections with previous births and was induced, I've never experienced these type of pains before.  They only last a few seconds- minute and then I feel okay.  I'm 35 wks with baby #4.  Thanks for any advice.

[trying_x_3]

Thanks girls...Just have to say lol!!! You guys made me smile, it's nice to know I'm not the only one embarrising myself in public lol!! Good to know I'm not the only one peeing alot still too, at least now though I only wake up 2-3 times a night instead of 4-6! Funny, I think someone should write a new book for those of us who don't fall along the "normal" guidelines! Like "what to expect when you're totally not normal" or "pregnancy week by week for the abnormal mom"...lol!!

Have a great day yall!!

[cocacolapanda]

Trying - Hormones are insane!  When I was pregnant with my son in the second trimester we went on a trip to visit my sister in law and at the airport they only had greasy food (that the sound of it made me sick at the time), I was starved because I was expecting to eat there.  I was balling like a little baby in front of everyone!  Some random guy asked if I was ok, I'm like "I'm pregnant, I'm starved and all this food here looks so disgusting"  lol.

Although I don't know if it's the miscarriage or what, but this time around my hormones have been WAY worse!  When we found out it was a girl DH was like "That's why your so hormonal, the girl's adding to the PMS hormone issues"  lol.

I've also been peeing non stop since I found out I was pregnant.  Once I started feeling the baby move I've been peeing more often again!  At times it feels like every 30-60 min!

Trying: I've been peeing non stop..it's SO annoying...sometimes I keep wondering if something is wrong with me but I think it's just normal...

Amy: Congrats on the girl!

Anna: Congrats on the boy!
