Hi ladies! I'm at 24 weeks and 1 day today and i was just thinking about how close im getting to the third trimester...which is crazy. i remember getting my BFP like it was yesterday...i can still feel that emotion. I found out at 16 weeks that my baby is a Boy, his name will be Matthew Aaron and he is pretty active...at what seems like the same times of day (he's a night owl..which is annoying lol but causes me to sometimes smile to myself in the dark) his kicks are deffinitly getting stronger as the days go by too...sometimes i think he's going to kick right through my tummy! my biggest complaint right now is lower back pain and pelvic discomfort (i think things must be spreading very recently) so ive been trying to rest a lot. i luckily have the ability to stay home and nest while DF brings home the bacon :) and nesting i have been LOL i've rearranged furniture...organized closets...cleaned cuboards. and all in the last 2 weeks. ive become completley insane trying to get things ready for baby...even though he's still a ways away! oh, and i ordered his crib bedding set the other day..it should be here soon...so excited!!! we're doing a nautical type theme..with sailboats. (df  loves sailing and working on his sailboat)

I am in my second trimester also... I'm 23wks and 1 day. Its my first pregnancy.. Found out about a month ago that its a boy!!!  I feel him move all the time, he is so active it's crazy, but he doesn't kick when daddy puts his hands on my stomach, but as soon as he takes his hand away he starts kicking again. lol.. I think it drives my fiancee crazy.  And Rosa I feel ya on the urinating thing, I swear all I do is pee and eat all day.  Like here it is 3 in the afternoon, I got up at 9 and I have already gone pee at least 8 times.  Speaking of that I have to pee now :(. lol.. Its crazy.  And I can't make it through a night of rest without having to get up out of bed 2 or 3 times to use the bathroom.  My nipples feel really weird.  Can't even explain it. And they itch so bad along with my stomach and back.  And Rosa yea every pregnancy is different from what I hear.  I got about three weeks left in this trimester, which is sad, since it's said to be the best stage of a pregnancy, but I enjoy everyday that takes me closer and closer to my due date, Only 16 weeks left until my lil man is due to arrive!!!!!!!!!!!!
