Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Oh, I'm on team..................


I see alot are having . Congrats to you all!!!!

I will be doing my registry this week. At least that is what I am planning. I'm looking forward to it!!!!

I have pregnancy carpel tunnel. I wake up with my fingers numb.....very annoying!
Also, almost a week ago I almost fainted at work. Very scary!!!
I had tunnel vision and everyone said, I turned white. If I didn't sit down I would have definitely fell.
I hope I never experience that again.

I'm getting bigger. I go to the doctor next week. Hopefully, all continues to stay well.

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Well i am a late December EDD so my Level II is on Wed and i cant wait to find out what team i am on. I have registerd for some things that i want to be neutral, but as soon as we find out what it is we will finish the registering. Hopefully next weekend we will do baby funriture shopping as well. I have felt strong flutters buy not outside kicks...cant wait for that!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

I was 20 weeks on Friday and am having 2 I am feeling pretty good except for feeling like I am 80 when I wake up. My whole body is stiff and sore. I have felt movement a couple of times but nothing definite or daily. My MIL got us a glider so we are going to pick that up today. My registry is also doen since my shower is on Sept 6(early since I have to travel to NY and live in SC. Glad to hear everyone is doing well!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

How is everyone doing? Can you believe we are getting close to starting the 3rd trimester!?!

Is it just me, or is this pregnancy flying!

I hope everyone is doing well!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Its totally flying, its crazy!!! I can't believe I'm 23 weeks and already in my 6th month It's insane!!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

I was just going to bump this thread today to see how all of the december mommies are doing!!! I was just thinking how crazy it is that we are already into our 6th month!!!! Craziness!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Isn't it incredible! I remember looking at the baby-gaga ticker and I couldn't wait until the baby looked human!

I looked at it this AM and thought HolyShit!!! this is my last month in the 2nd tri!

I can't wait to meet this little one!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

It does seem like just yesterday I was praying for week 13 and now here I am at 22 almost 23 weeks. My shower is in 2 weeks so I have been dutifully registry stalking. My MIL and Mom and sister have been VERY generous so we really have all the necessities we need so far. Now its just the fun stuff! Its foiling my plans since I live OOS I think I will be getting lots of gift cards.

I have been feeling constant movement and I think am starting to get to know my babies. Baby A loves the real food-meat and potatoes guy. Baby B loves the sweets-gatorade, candy etc. I was never much of a sweet tooth but I have to oblige my baby Baby B was always smaller and has his placenta in front so I was told I might not feel him as much but I feel him a lot! I can even feel their kicks from outside.

I have a fetal heart sono on Thursday which is something my clcinic does for all multiples. We picked up our cribs and are currently disassembling the guest room/my office to make a nursery. We rent right now and will be moving in April 09 so we are not going too crazy with the room. It is painted a light mocha color with bleached wood floors which is fine for us. Once we buy a house next year I will do a real nursery for them.

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Hello December Mommies!!! Glad to hear that everyone is doing well!! We finished registering this week, thank goodness! I felt so overwhelmed. Luckily I had a friend that just had a baby help me out with some questions I had.
I can feel pretty regularly now, and I love it! Sometimes I feel a little pressure and I can feel a hard lump in my belly and I know thats some part of her thats sticking out. Within a few seconds I can feel it shift!
I think it's been going by so fast b/c I have been feeling good. The 10 weeks that I had m/s definitely did not go this quickly!
Glad to see the post again and glad to check in with you all.
Feel good!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Hi ladies! Glad everyone is doing well. I can't believe I'm almost 23 weeks. Time is really flying by.

I feel a lot of kicks now both on the inside and outside. It's fun to see my belly move when kicks. Strangers and people I haven't seen for a while are all beginning to notice I'm pregnant.

I haven't finished registering yet although people are starting to buy things. I plan to finish registering this weekend. I'll try not to stalk the registry after that although it will be hard.

I feel like I have so much to do: registering/picking out furniture, looking into daycare, signing up for childbirth/BFing/CPR classes, etc. Does anyone else feel a little overwhelmed?

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Hey Ladies,
I have been looking for a December Mommy Thread, glad too see there are many out there. This is my first baby...I am 25 weeks this week, Due December 5 or 7th keep changing it on me. I can't believe how fast time is flying by. Getting so anxious & nervous!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Hi Ladies,

I haven't seen this thread in awhile.

How is everyone??

I felt a little sick this week. Don't know where it came from. I was doing great and feeling good....until this week, felt nauseous, extremely tired. Just yucky!

I have also been getting a lot of heartburn at night. Hate it!!

I have to go for my glucose test soon. I'll probably go next week. So not looking forward to it. I I pass the 1 hr.

My registry is all done and I must admit I have been checking it, even though my shower invites did not go out yet. My stroller/travel system was bought. Very Happy!!

Did any of you sign up for classes?
Are any of you NOT going to go to classes?

How about pediatricians? Are you going to make an appt for a consultation? When will you do this?

edited for spelling!
also, to add I'm 25 weeks tomorrow!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Hi Girls,

25 weeks 3 days today.

I did the glucose test yesterday- not bad at all.

I've signed up for lamaze, a breastfeeding class, and a hospital tour. I do want to do an infant care class as well since dh has never been around little babies before.

Furniture is ordered and ready to be picked up. DH just has to finish touching up the paint in the nursery.

I have to make an appointment for a pediatrician- although I am pretty positive who I am going with, I still would like to meet with him.

I start work next week- I am looking forward to it since it will make time pass much quicker. I plan on working up to the last possible second , unless any problems arise- so about 14 weeks of work left!

I am not sleeping comfortable- terrible sciatic pain that wakes me up. Anyone have any reccommendations?

Heartburn is bad, but tums are a lifesaver!

No complaints though, I am really enjoying this time. I go back on the 15th for a sono to see if my placenta has moved. it has!

Hope everyone is well!
Trish

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Hello again!
I haven't signed up for any classes yet, I am going for my 24 week appt on Tuesday so I will ask at the dr's office for any recommendations for classes.
I hope I dont forget to ask! My memory is defiinitely NOT what it used to be! Anyone else forgetful???
This has taken my brain!
I have a name of a pediatrician that I am going to meet with, so I guess we'll see how that goes.
When do you usually do the glucose test??
Feel good everyone!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Glad to hear that everyone is doing well!
Time is FLYING by. Soon enough we will all get to meet our little ones.
We are still on team but I'm totally convinced that we are having a .
My heartburn has been TERRIBLE!
I had my 23 week checkup the other day and everything looks great next up is the dreaded glucose test. yuck!
I have not registered or ordered furniture yet. I went yesterday and found furniture that I fell in love with. We are going away in two weeks so when we come back I will really get my act together and register and order furniture.
I that the next few weeks go by as quickly! Continue to feel good girls!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

I have so much to do, it's starting to worry me. 24 weeks here. I have finally started gaining weight. I am up about 7 lbs total, having gained a few this week alone.

We are going to finish registering today. I have furniture all picked out but haven't ordered it. It's girl furniture and I wanted one more sono before I ordered it to be sure, but I don't think that will be possible b/c my next sono is in 8 weeks at 32 weeks.

I also have to do the 3 hr gtt next week (only the 3 hr due to dad's history), dreading it. DREADING IT.

I have to order my cord blood registry kit, haven't decided where from yet.

I did sign up for the hospital tour in September, just to get that over with.
I have to pick a pediatrician, ugh. That won't be easy, I am so picky with drs. I have to research delayed vaccination and see how I feel about that.

We have to paint and organize the baby room, move some things around, etc. I do have paint colors picked out though. Tomorrow we will do the baby room organization, clear out the room, etc.

My shower is planned for early November so my main goal now is to get the registry fully ready. That has been a task in itself.

Otherwise, feeling pretty darn good, I can't complain overall. I feel kicks everyday, mostly am and pm. Feels so nice!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

hmmm, im due Jan 7th, but because of health issues have been told i will probably go in December (between xmas and new years if things look like they need to be moved along)...i cant find the January thread anywhere...lol
is it ok if i post here with you guys?!?!?

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Glad everyone is doing well. DH and I basically finished registering yesterday although I still need to pick the bedding and possibly add 1 or 2 more things. We may look at furniture later this afternoon.

I found out when the classes are being given, but I haven't signed up for any yet. I feel like I have so much to do over the next few months.

DH felt the baby kick this morning. He never seems to be around when the baby is most active so I'm glad he finally felt kicks.

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Hello ladies! I willbe 26 weeks tomorrow. Dh has beed feeling the baby a lot lately. I have not taken or signed up for any classes yet. But i did rent the Laugh & Learn video from my local library. I am thinking of taking the Infant CPR & the breastfeeding classes. I have to find out when they are available. I also want to do the hospital tour.
