Third Trimester!!! how is everyone?

[bny807]

hey girls!!! just checking in and seeing how everyone has been doing? Its been kind of quiet on here recently!   We are getting down to the final weeks, and how exciting!!!!! i wish time would go faster! Anyone else still nauseated and vomiting?? I still am sick daily, and have to take medicine to keep things down.. but its all well worth it! Otherwise, she is moving around in my tummy really well, still turning around - sometimes head down sometimes other positions! We have another ultrasound next week, and then start goign weekly for non stress tests, and we officially have an induction date - if we make it that far - Oct 28th!! so fun to have a real date picked!!!   Hope all is well with everyone and everything is coming together well! We still have lots to do on the nursery, and my shower in sept!! so exciting!!!

Sounds like we're all on the same home stretch!
I haven't felt this good since before pregnancy. I feel like my hormones have leveled out some and I'm not a lunatic anymore.
My baby boy is extremely active. Sometimes he distracts me in class and keeps me from falling asleep at night. But I'm not complaining!
Husband is in Afghanistan so I've been working on the baby room by myself little by little. It's painted, crib and bedding done, changing table in place. I bought a glider but haven't had anyone to help me get it upstairs. Also, waiting on help putting of a wallpaper border. Other than that... just waiting for his arrival.
7 months sounds really far along but 3 more months feel like forever. I know it will fly though. My dr thinks he will come early because I'm so small and he's measuring right on with dates. I certainly don't have a problem with that.
Good luck to everyone!!

I'm also unlucky and the sickness has stayed with me. I am fine as long as I take what I call my miracle tablets in the morning. Without them I go straght back to continuous vomiting. I'm not showing very much in comparison to others but the baby is growing well.
I have preexisting high BP but so far (fingers crossed) no preeclampsia on top but with this and history of hyper thyroid activity I am getting monthly scans. On one hand I wish they didn't need to monitor me as each month I get ancious that maybe my baby hasn't grown enough but on the other hand I love getting to 'see' the baby each month. I go this week for my checkup at 29weeks and will then most likely go to 2 weekly checks.
I'm expecting to have a planned c-section however there has been no talk sofar about actually setting a date. I'm sure that would make it all more real and iminent!
We need this a bit, since I am not that big it really feels like we have a lot more time however it is only 10weeks! We only just bought a crib and haven't even started working on the baby's room or bought anything at all!
Otherwise the biggest hassle is the lack of sleep (why does the little bub choose to kick so much when I am trying to sleep) and peeing ALL the time (which also doesn't help the sleep either!).

I'm soo jealous of all of you, and the fact your already working on your nursery.
My husband has been in BC fighting forest fires so I've been stuck in Ontario until he's finished. soo I fly back to Saskatchewan (where we live) on thursday.
my little girl doesn't move very often she is a stretcher though. I can feel her stretching all the time and she moves the most in the morning.
Once I'm in saskatchewan I'll start seeing my dr. ever 2 weeks.. Jonzey16 I'm with you!! my right ankle and foot  are sooooo swollen and my left isn't as bad.. soo crazy.
I'm soo happy everyones pregnancy is going good.

great to hear everyone is doing well!!   I hope the time starts going fast now! haha.. i hear it slows down at this point though :(  nickswife- i'm like you less than 10 weeks left, but my dr think it will be even sooner.... guess being on blood  thinners they are more likely to get them out ealier maybe!?  
I held up my friends newborn baby 6lbs to my belly the other day and realized even thnough my belly is big, its gotta get A LOT bigger still! its crazy!    Keep me updated with everything everyone, and SOON we will be meeting our little ones.. at least hopefully until then it will be getting cooler outside - i hope!!

Hi everybody!  Yes, I can hardly believe some of us are in and others just about to go into our 3rd trimester!  We're also very excited and can't wait til' the lil' guy gets here!  The nursery is just about ready we just have to add a few little things.  I've been feeling great other than like wait hazleyez mentioned just noticing a bigger belly over time.  Now it seems as though I'm dealing with a bit of swelling around my right ankle, there's barely any swelling in the left.  It must be a combo. of the humidity and just being pregnant.  I'll keep an eye on it and if it gets worse I'll go in.

In the meantime, goodluck to everyone!!

Hey Ladies. well I am jealous lol. I still have 13weeks left and it is seeming forever.. but other thann that I am great and my lil man is so very active I love it. he likes kicking me and when i put my hand he will kick again and kick again to cute.. its like he is wanting to play around in there with me haha.. I dont get anymore u/s my ob/gyn said it wont be necessary. so I only got the 10weeks and 12weeks and then the anatomy scan at 17weeks and nothing after and I just wish I could get one to see how big my lil man is and to see head down or what you know. but she said no I will most likely not get a u/s again. so im am really bumbed about that..Bny I am sry you still have the sickness and vomitting. I got very lucky this pg I havent had much of nothing just a belly getting bigger and thats it .. but with dd I was awful hehe but well worth it for what i got a beautfiul baby girl!!! Good Luck
