Not going to think about names until I find out if it's a boy or girl.

Right now, I am going crazy because I am 18 weeks and haven't had an appointment since 14 weeks and I am not really feeling much baby movement yet. So I am constantly worrying if everything is ok until I go to my next appt next week. I can't wait until I feel more consistent movement so there's a constant reminder everything is ok.

Hi ladies!

Just wanted to update - Mommy intuition was correct, it's a boy!

Gavin Joseph

I am so so sooooo excited Logan will have a baby brother. Little BFFs!!!

My nausea is still hanging around, but there are some really good days mixed in with the lousy days. I'm certainly able to eat a bit more without vomiting and not as many people are telling me I look like crap, so there's some improvement!

I feel the baby a lot and I definitely think its because I already know what it feels like from DS1.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Re: <3 <3 Official July 2011MommyThread<3 <3

Just bumping to see how the July mommas are doing.

So far we know we are having . We picked out a name but not telling anyone. Trying to decide where our office stuff will go so we can start the nursery. We picked out the bedding and have figured out the nursery colors more or less. Just need some swatches for ideas of shades.

Next step is to narrow down and choose the double stroller, what items we need for the new nursery, take home outfit and that's all I can think of for now... I did register so I can keep track of what I need. I'm not having a shower its for my purposes only.
I'm also looking into switching daycare for DS.

I'm feeling reflux like never before. It's worse this pregnancy I'm waiting for the second wind since I'm in my 2nd tri. But not happening. DS1 takes all my energy away. Working ft is draining physically and mentally.

I can't believe I'm 22 weeks already. This pregnancy sure flew.

Eta this lil guy is very active. Is kicking from when I wake up until I go.to sleep.

Re: <3 <3 Official July 2011MommyThread<3 <3

thanks for bumping. i am doing pretty well...25 weeks on monday. i had been feeling her kick alot and then for the past few days, not so much. just little bumps here and there. from what i read this is normal so i am trying not to get all nervous nelly. had a DR appt on wed where i learned i have gained 20 lbs!! that is a bit scary.
today my mom and i are going to behrs to pick out furniture. DH painted the baby's room last weekend a beige color and the bedding we registered for is purple and white with little bits of pink.

i hope everyone else is feeling well!

Re: <3 <3 Official July 2011MommyThread<3 <3

hi! i'm 24 weeks and feel really good. we're having a and i love feeling her strong kicks. she seems to be on a sleep/wake schedule already. we ordered her nursery furniture and registered. i'm in the process of planning my shower w/ my mom. we have paint samples and i just have to pick the color so my DH can start painting her room!
