It's going so fast!  

post #1 of 16
Thread Starter 
This is my third baby, and I cannot believe how fast the pregnancy seems to be going! It seems like I just found out, and now I'm 20 weeks! I felt like I was pregnant for an eternity with the other two. Anyone else have that feeling?

I feel like it's crawling, but as I look back it's fast. Perhaps 'cause this is my first.

This is also my 3rd, and I feel the same way. I was looking back on the last 20 weeks, thinking "oh, no! I haven't enjoyed it enough! What is this is our last?! I'm missing it!"

And then it hit me that I get the thrill of laboring and delivering again. Umm, okay, I'll wait!!! I'm not ready YET! Maybe it wont be so hard this time...

This is my first, but it still feels fast... maybe because i'm feeling good. It might feel reaaally slow that last month or so!

I'm pg with my first. I hit 20 weeks today and it's amazing to think that this is half-way. I've been savoring it yet it's flown by! SO FAST! The little one was just gently poking me...I so love this. And so many changes so quickly! This is such an amazing experience...I hope the rest doesn't fly by tooooo quickly....

This is our third and our last baby. It's going too fast for me to enjoy. Or rather, the PUPPPS is annoying the hell out of me, and I can't wear any nice clothes requiring a bra, since the rash/hives are right where the chest band of a bra would sit.

I start prenatal yoga next week, and this will help put me in a better mood. I would go for prenatal aqua-fit, except the thought of donning hat and boots to head over to the YMCA's pool for the final weeks of the pregnancy seems overwhelming.

I've already started reading birth stories--the quick and easy ones--for inspiration for the final stretch.

I feel like the last few weeks went by fast, but the first 16 were I was constantly puking was slow and rough. Even though I am still sometimes sick, I can at least function and enjoy it.

I'm a surrogate and my IM {the baby's mom} and I were just talking about how fast this has seem to have gone by, especially after so much waiting...waiting each cycle to do insems, then the 2ww, then finally a BFP! now more waiting to hear the HB and find out the sex, and feel kicks.... It hit us the other day that there's less than 16 weeks until baby gets here-what, where has all the time gone?! It seemed like it would take forever and now we're almost done {well, not quite, but it's going fast!}

It WAS going really fast and then since 20 wks it seems to have slowed way down for some reason!! I am 24 wks now and I am trying not to let myself get impatient already! I just get so psyched for birth.

it really IS going fast! but not fast enough.................i need milk for dd! she is so sad that the nay-nay milk is "all done". poor thing. at least my nipples don't hurt anymore. although, the other day i noticed my breasts felt heavy and hard like they were full of milk.:

I still can't get over the fact I'm going to be 25 weeks on Monday. It alternates between dragging and flying by at the speed of light.

This is my third and probably last and I feel the same way. I had all of these great plans for things I wanted to do during the pregnancy when I was TTC (and it took fifteen cycles) and it's breaking my heart that I'm too busy to do them consistantly or to enjoy this baby as much as I was sure I was going tol.

I'm seriously going to try to work fewer hours during the third trimester and make more time for the baby and myself.

Me too! I can't believe we are going to have a new baby in only a little over 4 months. :

I'm kind of sad it's going to fast, as this is our last - tough to savor it when you're running after a toddler and keeping up with 2 pre-teens at the same time!
