I am pretty thin...not sticks and bones. I have a very small frame but I am still pretty tall. I don't know if that is why I have been able to feel her since week 15...that makes sense though. I am really really worried about stretch marks because I had a pretty flat and tight stomach and now it is growing and growing and stretching!!! I read that when you feel the baby depends on soo many factors..so don't worry. Obviously you are getting your check ups and things are progressing fine. Some of my friends who are bigger than me said they didn't feel their baby until 6 months. Also, the dr said my baby is especially squirmy and she moves more than she had seen typically.

I am still feeling pretty good! I have a hard time sleeping some nights, and I toss and turn a lot! I usually add some more pillows! I am so worried about sleeping on the wrong side and/or my stomach! I am getting my flu shot tomorrow. The two school nurses and the doctor said it's a good idea, so I'm going with it. I think I've felt the fluttery feelings, but I'm not quite sure. I don't feel much, and that worries me, especially when I read that all of you are feeling your babies. I have been eating soup for lunch. That makes me feel better, and it's not so heavy. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying pregnancy!
19 weeks tomorrow
EDD Mar 19
next u/s is Oct 30 (next Thursday) to find out the sex~
All is good - although my groin area is feeling tweaked today - like stretching pain. It actually woke me up - so wonder if this is a growth spurt. Hard to tell daily how my belly is browing - but pregnancy is evident. I have a friend who is super slim and in shape - she BARELY looked pregnant at 21 weeks, I am showing a lot more - but just goes to show you everyone is at a different pace.
When I sit down - I wonder it if just looks fat.
Tired - thank god I work from home when not traveling - napped today for 20 mins. God love my sweat pants.
I have not bought ANYTHING for the baby - still sort of scared and don't want to jinx it. I won't even let people talk baby shower until after next week.
Think the baby woke me up this morning squiggling around and felt again through out the day - but nothing now and I am still not TOTALLY sure the baby is making the movements or gas is.
Oh - if you are looking for a funny light-hearted preggers book - get Belly Laughs by Jenny McCarthy. SO FUNNY.
Heart beat check yesterday - 160 and strong. PHEW!

Everything has been going really well! She moved, literally ALLLLL DAY yesterday. She must be tired today after all that activity because I have only felt 2 light movements today.
I am starting to get swollen fingers and feet!!! I am kinda freaking out a little bit, that I have gestational diabetes or something!! lol
Hope everyone else is doing well! :)
EDD: March 17th
Week 19
Waiting ever so patiently for my next u/s. We will find out if it is a boy or a girl. It is such a weird feeling. I don't think I ahve been this excited for something since DH and I got married...even then I was just looking forward to the honeymoon and being married to him. Anyways, I feel like a little girl waiting to go to Disneyland or soemthing. Once we find out it will open up a whole new baby perspective for us...I am dying to go shopping and decorate.
Other than my building anxiety about Thursday I am feeling pretty good. I think this little bugger is sitting on my bladder becasue I am peeing more than I did in the first trimester. Still having sinus issues but other than that nothing too noticeable. Having some round ligament pains in my calves at night. I stetch in my sleep and my calves get all notted up. That *****, but what can you do. My dreams have become much more vivid in the past couple of weeks. I don't recollect them being anyting baby related though. I am also hoping to get a real good kick here soon from the little one. I am dying to have DH feel the baby move.
Hope everyone is doing well.

ultrasound on monday!!! so excited!! :0) I have held off buying anything. I am so back and forth on whether I think it's a boy or a girl. Everyone in our families, aunts uncles and friends bet on girl. But my two friends say it's a boy.
All in all, I am feeling pretty good. Lots of growing and stretching pains, and I get unbelievable tightness in my belly at night and in the mornings when I wake up, sometimes it hurts to roll over!
stll having some sleep troubles every now and then. nausea and vomitting subsided except last night maybe because of what I ate that did not agree with me.
I am 5'3" used to be 108lbs and now a whooping 128lbs according to OB.

Only one more week till our ultrasound!!! I am so excited!! :0) I have held off buying anything, somehow. I am so back and forth on whether I think it's a boy or a girl. Everyone in our families, mom, father-in-law, all say it's a boy. But my two very best friends say it's a girl.
All in all, I am feeling pretty good. Lots of growing and stretching pains, and I get unbelievable tightness in my belly at night and in the mornings when I wake up, sometimes it hurts to roll over!
I have a question for those girls that are feeling the baby move by now, are you all on the thinner side? I am definitely not on the the thinner side, and I have yet to feel the baby move, I am so anxious!
Hope all is well with everyone else :)
EDD March 1st
Week 21
I am getting a definite belly! I had a little freak out moment last night with the ligament stretching...but she is good and healthy and nothing is wrong! (Thank God!) I bought an Angelsounds fetal doppler on Ebay...great investment! I love to listen to her heartbeat! I recommend it for anyone who wants one.
I am still constipated as ever...that is just how I am going to be I guess. I have been sick less and less...every once in awhile I get sick but I have a great appetite and I make up for it. Taco Bell lately has been great! :)

This past week has been good, Chris got to feel Phin moving which was awesome. We have the spare room half torn apart in preperation of becoming Phin's room, I can't wait for it to be done. Our next dr visit is Nov 14...I live to hear his heartbeat ^_^
