Quoting Dan[yell]:" Aw! Haha too cute! My first was wild!! He would kick for me and daddy all the time! Second, wouldn't ... [snip!] ... Sometimes, I think I feel little flutters with this one but then I start second guessing myself so IDK if I really have or not."

Aww!!!!!

So I am 16weeks today!!

Yay! I feel like I've been "popping" out slightly, ny aunt said im starting to show too!

Gender determination is in a week exactly! At 530pm!! Yay!!!

I feel like this pregnancy is going by fairly quick...probably because I have a two year old, and I work 40/hrs a week.


On a downfall note, I have been having bh contractions....only when I get aggravated or stressed out...which has me worried since im high risk... also mu chest has been pounding the last few days, and I've had a constant migraine for the last week!

I have an appt on Monday as well, for a regular check up

I'm so nervous about my appointment tomorrow that I'm starting to feel sick to my stomach! Blech. I haven't felt any definitive movements over the past few days, which makes me terrified that they'll tell me I've had a missed miscarriage or something terrible like that.

On the bright side, DH told me last night that he wants to wait to find out the gender until birth too! He said he's afraid he wouldn't be able to keep it a secret, and that he realized he doesn't need to know in order to be happy or feel involved in the pregnancy.

How far along are you?

Do you still have the same "symptoms"? I remember when I had my m/c all of the pregnancy symptoms just stopped. It was like someone snapped their fingers and the pregnancy symptoms were gone.

Mama''s who have found out the gender: Have you messaged the OP to put it next to your name?

See that confuses me because when you reach the second trimester a lot of the symptoms stop

15 1/2 weeks, so I know it's still early to feel movement. I didn't feel either of my other two until at least week 18, but I've felt this one a few times already.

Try to stay positive I'm sure everything's fine!
Drink some juice and see if baby kicks?

It's hard to say, because my m/s and other symptoms have been decreasing over the past few weeks, since I got into the 2nd trimester. I do still feel sick if I'm too hungry, and I get this weird heartburn every night when I lay down for bed. And I'm always tired. So I don't know if those things could still be considered symptoms or of they could be attributed to something else. I'm just so paranoid, and I hate it!!!

post and run€€, sorry lol but since this is my first€€, can anyone tell me what a braxton hicks feel like€? i teach and while walking around before i i had a pain that felt like my cervix, internal feeling not in my stomach or abs, like a pinch and contract. it actually hurt a bit! since ive never been in labor or have contractions i have no idea what anything feels like€! also, no blood or anything just slight cramping€€.

I'm a little bit jealous of everyone finding out the gender around 18 weeks! I went to my checkup yesterday & asked when we could, my doctor said 24 weeks. 24 weeks?! I was hoping 18-20. He says "well you want to be able to see everything"...I guess it doesn't matter though. I'm happy either way, boy or girl. I just wanted to start shopping.

Thanks, I hope so!   I'll have to try the juice thing once I put the munchkins down for naps, so I can stay still and concentrate on my tummy. haha

My DD (almost 4) was watching TLC's "Make Room for Multiples" with me back when I first got pregnant (or even right before--I can't remember now). I was explaining that the people on TV had had FOUR babies at one time instead of just one like when we had her brother. She quickly said, "We should have FIVE babies!" and has been convinced ever since that we'll be bringing home 5 babies at some point. She talks about it all the time, even though she doesn't know I'm pregnant yet. Last night she brought it up again at dinner, saying her tummy was so big because she had one of the 5 babies in there. I asked her if I had any of them in my tummy and she said, "Yeah, you have a BIG tummy, so you have 3 of them in there." DH and I looked at each other and sort of freaked out and are hoping she doesn't have any special childhood intuition. lol

That's true, I forget that some people are in their second tri already. IDK I had my m/c at 7 weeks.

Whenever I had BH, I would just feel my tummy tense up and get really hard. It would last for however long and then stop as if nothing had happened. They didn't hurt at all with my first pregnancy, but got pretty painful with my second. I'm not sure if it's because he was so big or not though.
