SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

SO, how are we all feeling?
DO we know what you are naming your child?? If SO post...
Hailey ? Still unsure

I am feeling fine, Just had my 3D sonogram, I am gaining alot of weight... already 36 pounds.. ..

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

I am finally feeling good again ... Puppp's is subsiding and the itch is down to a 'dry skin itchy feeling'. I have an appointment Monday for with the GD doctors. I am up 19 lbs (30 weeks on Sunday) so hopefully I won't gain too much the next 10 weeks.

We painted the nursery and got the bedding. Getting the furniture next week sometime. Cannot wait to set up room! :)


Looking forward to meeting baby and having my body back also. Baby did great, but mommy had a lot of medical issues the entire pregnancy. Hopefully they will all clear up when baby is born.

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hi everybody,

I'm in my 30th week and feeling good. Found out that my placenta moved (had previa) about 2 weeks ago, so that was a relief. Now all tests/signs look really good.

Sleep is getting to be a challenge -- up at least 2x a night to pee and its hard to fall back asleep so I've been a little cranky, but otherwise I feel good.

Feeling a lot of kicking and have a major nesting urge. Just went through all my shower gifts to try and figure out what we still need to buy.

Probably the biggest challenge between now and my due date is staying focused on my work -- I not technically employed this summer, but I'm writing my dissertation. I'm disappointed that it won't be done before baby arrives, but I HAVE to finish this chapter soon!

Also need to paint nursery and finish decorating. DH is making our crib (yikes!) and remodeling one of the BRs in our house, so I'm really worried about getting everything done !

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

I'm feeling just ok. Its funny, cuz I'm actually starting to feel pregnant! I've had a great pregnancy so far and have hardly felt PG this whole time. I'm starting to slow down alot- and am getting very sore!

We are naming Kaitlyn Elizabeth.

Our furniture came this week and we are busy setting everything up!

Only 6 weeks 2 days to go!

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hi girls!

I am in my 31st week and besides the whole GD thing, I am feeling great.
I have gained 18 lbs so far and I am so proud of myself

My wrist still hurts, I guess its that PG carpal tunnel

I got my first 4 stretch marks on my belly a few days ago, I was thinking I would get away with getting none but oh well.

We are naming him Andrew Nicholas. The middle name is my DH's first name (he didnt want a jr.)

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hi fellow September Mommies

I'll be 29 weeks tomorrow and Sunday is my shower. I wanted it early because I am a paranoid freak. Furniture was delivered yesterday and I love it. His furniture is nicer than my own!

I feeling good. Passed 1 hr test however have to take Iron since I have slight anemia. Other than that I can't really complain although I'm getting to that uncomfortable feeling......

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hello mommies!!!

29wks yesterday and as i type i am getting kicked in the ribs She has definitely gotten much more active the past couple of days!!! Future Soccer Star!!! We are naming her Olivia Lynn, and my shower is next Saturday!! Been feeling great other then the soarness under my bra area but i honestly haven;t had any pg symptoms so i'm not complaining. I have my next appt next week and hopefully they will be able to give me a guestimate of size and weight (hers not mine - lets not even go there!! I can't wait to meet her.

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Glad to hear everyone's doing good!

I'm 31 weeks & feeling great. I gained 19 lbs so far & really started to feel it about 2 weeks ago, definitely more tired & sore now.

I started my childbirth classes & I'm trying to get the apt in order (that's a little stressful). Also, my shower is in 2 weeks & I'm planning most of it so that's been extra stress too. But I love being pg!

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hi Ladies,
I am 29 weeks now (my EDD was moved up by 4 days so I am trying out the new one ). Things are good here, I am up about 21 pounds and I passed my one hour test. I am going to the doctor every two weeks now because I ended up at L & D twice already. My placenta has moved up, so that was good news, and as of two weeks ago baby weighed 2 lbs 4 oz...so I wonder what it weighs now. Our furniture is being picked up next week, so DH is getting the room ready this week. No baby shower in sight for me just yet, and we have major issues with picking out baby names if it is a girl! HELP!

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hey ladies,

I am doing great. I had a growth sono yesterday because at my last appointment I was measuring three weeks ahead but after having the sono yesterday they realized that my fibroid is growing and that's what caused me to be measuring ahead.

Apart from this everything is fine and Ella is doing great. Her dad and I are eagerly awaiting her arrival along with our family.

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hi girlies,

So glad to see you're all doing great! I think for the most part all of us are handiling the summer pretty well

I am 29 weeks today (although the doctor says 29 weeks and 2 days but yet they don't move up my EDD...weird) anyway, I'm feeling great except for my feet which are starting to swell up more often and none of my shoes fit...I'm stuck wearing flip flops bc they are the only thing that fits, yet they're so uncomfortable bc of the no bottom support. But I'm managing.

I took the glucose test a couple of weeks ago and I haven't heard from the doctor...so no news is good news, but they will confirm the results at my next week appointment, during which, I will be 30 weeks! Holy moly how time flies! From then on we begin the bi-weekly visits...time is ticking.

My little boy is growing, he is very active and gets the cutest hiccups from time to time. He is a very good boy as he sleeps with me through the night...so far the sleeping has gotten a little better, and I hope it stays this way!

ETA: By the way, my little man will be named Michael, Jr.

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hi ladies...I'll be 30 weeks tomorrow and I'm still feeling really good. I actually worked out a bit this week and it felt great!!

I'm really feeling my little man move a lot...more rolling than kicking and when I press my belly where he pushes, I feel him move away...I love it! I also feel him have the hiccups twice a day.

I'm up about 17lbs, but haven't weighed in since Tuesday and so far I've been lucky enough to have avoided swelling and insomnia too.

Nursery is almost done, just waiting on wood floors, then the furniture can be delivered. I'm guessing my shower is going to be August 4th or 5th but I really have no idea. I'm hoping its sooner than later.

I hope the rest of the pregnancy goes as smooth! Just waiting on my 3hr glucose test results.

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

Hi Y'all....Im 32 weeks on Sunday...Ive gained 17lbs as of Monday. According to the perinatalogist at North Shore the baby is on the large size and is measuring 3 weeks ahead of schedule. (My eldest daughter was large so this isnt entirely a surprise.)

Up until the past few days I was feeling pretty good..right now his tush is pushing againest my rib cage and its killing me..I keep getting him to move over and then he moves back so I guess he likes it there...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If history repeats itself Caden James Mitchell "hbugalla" should be here some time the middle of August..(I usually go early)

This is mine and DH 1st (and only) baby together and we are impatiently awaiting his arrival..as are his 5 sisters.

Re: SEPTEMBER Mommies Check IN----

hi girls

my midwife called the other day I have a bacterial infection in my bladder and am now on antibiotics- think that is making the baby sleep more dont feel it move as much but that also could be casue it stressed me out a bit
Sleep is getting to be a challenge for me as well -- up 5x a night to pee
my next apt isnt untill the 1st friday in august
gained 27lbs
