I found out with my last baby at 17 weeks 3 days! It was right!

Awe! That's exciting! And now were pregnant again at the same time. Weird! Thanks everyone else. We're pretty excited over here! I will be 15 weeks tomorrow but I don't get my gender u/s until 20 weeks. So march 11. It's sooo far away!

Quoting susanesque:" Hey, ladies. Got my 16 week checkup yesterday; HB sounded great, but I didn't get a number on it. No ... [snip!] ... reason. I'm really excited about going cloth. How is everyone feeling? I feel great except for the cramping/stretching mess."

I get mine on March 1st too  
But i wont be finding out the sex... I feel good besides my crotch and stomach hurting quite bad. My stomach has been cramping up alot lately and super hard. I think its growing. And my butt hurts like very low back top of butt crack kinda thing, I feellike a big mess right now haha

I've got the sciatic nerve pain going, I don't remember having it last time. It's not too bad but it's annoying.

Yay! I'll bet - the 1st seems like forever to me!

Yay for cloth, which type have you chosen we are going little lambs (terry/bambboo shaped with a cover) for the newbie and we use pockets with DD.

You should be able to see the gender from 16 weeks so yeah you would be fine now, they can make mistakes at any point though but it is rare i think. We are finding out on the 22nd of March  

Im starting to get a little bit exited now, I have found the HB at home and heard movement, I was feeling some but its tailed off now, But I rememberthis happening with Meg, i started feeling her then stopped but she was fine.
I had to go to the hospital the other night because I had some greenish CM and pains but they took swabs and will be in touvh, they have sent my sample off too as i had ketones and protein in my urine.

I think I'm going to try a few different brands. Probably mostly prefolds & covers for the newborn stage... I found one cheaper brand with really good reviews (and really pretty prints!), but I forget the name. I've got it bookmarked - I want to try a couple of those for sure.

DD's birthday is the 22nd! It's a good day. ;)

I hope you figure out what's going on! Do they think it's just an infection or what?

Thank you, they are not sure but i have to be really careful as I am extremelyhigh risk to start with I should get my results monday ~(FX)

Prefolds are good I used them to start with but yeah its best to trial everything you can, I have done that with Meg and we have a great set up now - pockets with bamboo and charcoal inserts and Meg is a heavy wetter, we use the LL's at night though. But I have had to stop cloth for now because of my MS   I cant copewith the laundry and smell
Happy Birthday to your DD for 22nd! Im nervous but exited   I really dont care what the baby is but i want to find out sowe can start using his/her name etc

Me too! I hate calling baby "it"  

I've never heard of charcoal inserts, I'll have to look those up!

I feel like such a spaz, I was sitting here just now and realized this time next year I'll have a 6-7 month old baby! Then I thought "Wait... there's only 5 months left?? What?!" I swear I was two months like... yesterday! Now I'm four? How is this going so quick? lol

I know! Im so confused I feel like I have made it through so much of this pregnancy yet everytime I talk to anyone they say ooooh early days.... I want to poke them in the eye! Its not early days when you have held your breath for 14 weeks!

We call him/her bumpy, Meg says its her sibsta (sister?) and everyone else thinks its a boy, we have names for both thought out and i cant wait to know  

Its lovely being aboe to say X months isnt it!

We call him/her Baby B   our last name starts with a B & it's our second, so it works  
We won't be sharing the name until baby arrives earthside, sooo it'll be Baby B until then  

Thats lovely Kara-Lynn, I couldnt keep it a secret Im awful!

I am 17 weeks today. My gender ultrasound is a week from Tuesday. I think this next week is going to go so slow.

For the most part my MS is gone, but I still gag a little if I have to change a poopy diaper.

I am sad that the weekend is almost over already and it is almost time for my hubby to head back. My hubby has only one more week of training left before he gets to come home for good and then we move to VA.

The next couple of weeks are going to be a little hectic around here, but I can't wait to move into our new house that we just closed on Thursday.

Quoting meggymama:" Thats lovely Kara-Lynn, I couldnt keep it a secret Im awful!"

haha I hear ya! I am the same way. That said, so many people have given me negative opinions on the names I like, so its just one of those "well it's harder to hate on a name when it's attached to a baby" LOL
also, with my daughter, I wanted to change the spelling at the last minute, but so many people had given us books, blankets, yada yada yada with her name in them, that I kept it the same. I am reserving the right to CHANGE MY MIND this time lol

More power to Kara!
