Praying for you jahjah! I had that happen with my first, it's no fun at all. Find some good TV shows to watch and cross your legs!

I hope he stays put! I had preterm labor at 29 weeks with my 1st pregnancy, spent a week in the hospital on mag sulfate and the rest of the pregnancy on bedrest and terbutaline. Luckily DS stayed in full term.

Just hanging out here, letting the weeks pass by.

I finally had a burst of energy today and my house is looking fabulous! It's so relaxing when the housework is done, makes it easier to do everything else.

nausea has reared its ugly head in again. This is the first time its come this soon, I'm used to not getting it again till way later in the pregnancy. Baby has started kicking more often. This little guy gets the hiccups more often as well. LOL

jahjah~ I hope he stays in there. Take it easy.

touchmytoes~ HAve a great vacation!

I'm so glad to be in the 2nd trimester. My energy level is slowly getting better. I don't need to nap on my lunch hour anymore! I still don't look pregnant yet. Just pudgy. I can't wait until that changes.

I think I'm in the nesting phase and it sucks so much that I can't flip the house upside down and clean!!

Things have been uneventful here, except for some migraines and nausea.

My last appointment at 15 weeks was two days ago and the baby sounded great, my blood pressure was 100/61, and my weight gain was about what I'd expect for having gotten back from a 2 week vacation just 8 hours earlier!

I was 221 when I weighed right after stepping off the plane, 219 the next morning, 216 on Thursday and 215 today . Considering I was 212 before the vacation I'm prett happy with the numbers now that the salt is gone and the swelling from flying and driving has gone down.

I'm focusing on getting my walking in again, and did get 3 miles in yesterday. Here's to hoping for a repeat today.

I've been terrible at keeping up on here! Baby's doing well. I'm gaining way too much weight though. I just started getting terrible heartburn. It started Saturday and has really affected me. I have never had it this bad! It hurts so bad when I breathe and trying to sleep is even worse. I have been eating tums and drinking milk but it is helping. I think I am going to call my dr tomorrow and see if there is anything else I could do!
I was able to skip last Friday's appt because the previous week I was only 1 cm so my dr wasn't too concerned. We'll find out if I'm any more this Friday. Less than 3 weeks and I still have so much to do! I need to clean up this place before the baby gets here. More importantly, I need to get all baby things ready! Time is flying so fast with this pregnancy.

I hope everyone else is doing well! Jahjah, I hope things are okay with you and your little one will stay put for a while!

I guess I can join in here! Just 6 weeks with baby #4. I was hoping to have a few more months of weightloss before +HPT but apparently the little guys had some kind of preservative and lived 7 days lolol!

This will be my first pregnancy starting out overweight. In the past I start thin and gain 80 pounds..but this last time I gain sans pregnancy .

But I had been working out 5 days a week and CC'ing for two full months prior to getting pregnant so I'm hoping I can keep with it and even lose a little more. I know that sounds taboo but I've got a lot of reserve. We'll see how it goes.

I recognize the name Zenor. Are you the one from calorie counters a long time ago who moved to Seattle? loves wine? Congrats on your pregnancy!

[mom4life]

Congratulations Coolmom75!!

So far I'm still feeling great. dh got a job yesterday so now we're trying to work out the insurance thing and my midwife. The insurance won't start till June 1st so I need to find out what my midwife suggests we do. I know she's in network with the insurance, its the insurance we had when I had my last child and she delivered him. The last appt for this month is the 29th. I forget since I'm this far along if it stays at a once a month visits or if it picks up to every two weeks. Don't know but I'll find out soon.
This pregnancy still feels like its going at a snail pace. I feel like I've been pregnant forever. LOL

[jahjah1223]

I know how you feel I feel like I've been pregnant for years this time around!

[mrsaugie]
