Everything seems to be going well here. Getting way too big for my regular clothes but I'm still small enough that maternity clothes look weird on me. Feeling good, although I'm already getting up once a night to pee!!! Still looking for a job, so everyone wish me luck!!!

Hope everyone is doing well and feeling good.

Am feeling better and better. Have not thrown up all week!!! Hurray!! I think the worsed is over. I have just started wearing some maternity clothes mostly just the tops..the pants are still too big.
We are leaving on vacation tomorrow for two weeks. Looking forward to some relaxation!!!

I'm feeling pretty good too here, though the insomnia that I had and I thought had gone has returned. I've been up for the past two nights for a few hours and then I wake up all groggy and cranky.... and I don't need ANY help in the cranky department!

Though I'm 15 weeks I know I've felt my baby kick me a couple of times. It's been random (i.e. inconsistent), but it makes me happy nonetheles.... makes everything seem a little more real.

Pretty dull here. I had some mild menstrual-like cramping over the weekend but it went away when I remembered to drink lots of water. I've still feeling sick a lot, it'll probably stick with me the whole time like last pg. I got a really nice mat. shirt today at a consignment shop. It fits great now and it's stretchy enough that it looks like it'll keep fitting. It has flared sleeves and a drawstring neck, and I can see that I'll be pretty much living in it. My milk has all but left, and now dd says it tastes yucky, so I guess it's changing over. At least she'll get 6 months of colostrum. That oughta keep her from getting sick! I'm still toying with the idea of u/c, but I am not the type to stay calm in emergency situations, so if one came up, even something mild might make me so worked up I'd need a c-sect or something. I really like the idea of it. Maybe I can find a mw who's willing to be hands-off, it just sucks to pay them so much to NOT do anything, ykwim?
I guess that's mostly all that's going on. Glad to hear some of you are getting over the m/s!

Hi everyone! I'm feeling pretty good lately. Starting to show. I'm not wearing any of my regular pants/shorts.

My dd has been sleeping through the night the since saturday night. I can't believe it. She just started doing it. Of course, now that I'm talking about it she'll start waking up again. Ha! She's down to nursing 2-3 times per day now.

Hey Malama, me too! Just a few minutes ago, I could have sworn I felt the baby move/kick. Who knows. I didn't feel my dd move until 18 weeks.

Happy Gestating everyone!

Hi y'all!
So I tried on some maternity clothes and I'm a) too short and b) still too skinny...so I'm still squeezing into the clothes that do fit. Oh well.

I'm still really tired. Anyone else still feeling really tired? I thought I wold start having more energy by now. Maybe its just that I'm still chasing after a toddler. Poor dh has been getting up for her in the midddle of the night, 'cause apparently I have been sleeping through it. I suppose I've been doing the night time parenting for the last 19months, he can do it now.

Glad to hear everyone is doing well!

Embens-good luck job hunting!

Glad to hear everyone's feeling good, or getting there. We move into our new house this weekend, and still there's so much to do. Too much to do. The IL's, SIL and a friend are helping us move. I'm banned from helping with the big stuff. Oh well.... :innocent
My regular clothes are starting to get tight, but the maternity clothes I have so far are still too big. I'm kinda hoping I pop out this weekend, while I don't wear work clothes, so I can go one way or the other. I also bought maternity clothes for fall/winter, and not so much for summer. I'm hoping to come across some bigger clothes as we unpack. Oh dear! fashion crisis!

Oh yes, and I'm still fighting the mind numbing fatigue, but it's not as constant as a couple of weeks ago.
See you all after the move!

Good luck with your move this weekend, Parenthia! I can imagine just how much you must be looking forward to getting settled, even if it means a whole lot of work in the meantime.

It's good to hear that everyone's feeling pretty good! I find it hard to post sometimes since for the post part I'm feeling, well, pretty much NOTHING right now! No complaints, mind you ;) I've got a little belly, but unless you knew me you probalby wouldn't notice. I'm feeling great ~ lots of energy in the day, sleeping well at night, good appetite, etc.

We'll be on the move again in about two weeks time, and making our big relocation. I simply cannot wait!! It will be so wonderful to be in our own space &, believe it or not, I'm even looking forward to unpacking!

Hi Ladies. It’s been awhile since I posted. I am doing better. No more daily puking and the nausea has lighted and is almost gone. I am still experiencing the headaches, but I just push on…sometimes I do have to take a Tylenol but not often. I am experiencing pregnancy insomnia, which stinks as I am so tired and want to sleep so bad. Hoping that will pass soon too. I am 18 weeks YIPEY. My milks are gone. I had to stop pumping as I was getting SO little for the effort. My DD does still nurse, I feel badly that she is not getting milks but in time it will be back, I just hope she holds on. I plan on tandem nursing, my DD will be 17 months when the new baby is born. Hope you all are doing well.

Hi all!:wave

16 weeks & 5 days! Went for a check up today & everything is A OK!!:) I laugh when I read about you gals who are still to small for maternity clothes:LOL I have been in them for 2 months!! I look BIG but it is my 4th so I guess that's the way it works.

Hope you are all well. I still have nausea from time to time. Smells really bug me. Today was my 2 yr. olds birthday. What a nice day to see my baby boy geting so big.

XOXO Have a good weekend
