Thanks!!! I will have those handy when she calls me with my results. Ugh, I am a nervous wreck. I just want everything to be ok.

 

BabyRN - July 9

no prob! keeping my fingers crossed for you!

 

nikki2204 - July 9

Thank you!!!

 

nikki2204 - July 9

I left her a voice mail but nothing yet...she probably is rolloing her eyes at me because she doesn't even have the results back yet! lol.

 

JSmith - July 9

Evening girls- I hope you are all well this evening. Hey Tenk - just curious - did you show a lot faster with your second baby than you did with the first one? I am already all "bloated" and I am only just about 8 weeks. I didn't show with Raegan until I was about 5 months - this is crazy. I'm a little scared cause I have had an eating disorder in the past and it forever haunts me. I know I won't do anything stupid, but I am afraid to gain a lot of weight. Okay, sounds selfish, I know and I apologize for that, but it scares me to death. I am also already having "bowel problems" - :( - I am taking 4 Metamucil caplets a day and hoping it helps, but so far it is not. I am really hoping they will kick in soon cause I was miserable last pregnancy. Okay, enough of me complaining. I hope you are all doing well. I am going to go lay down for a while. Have a good night.

Bumping us back up...Nikki how was your test results? Hello Mega, BabyRN, Tenk, JSmith and AimeeMD.

 

nikki2204 - July 11

Hey everyone. Mommy- I still haven't heard back from them!!! I left another voice mail yesterday afternoon, hopefully she calls me today. ugh. I have been feeling so bloated, it hurts! 3rd trimester--I think new syptoms are coming...lol

 

mommywannabe - July 11

Nikki, I have to say I felt MOST of my symptoms in my 3rd tri. I think that was the worst for me. It's wasn't horrible but I remember just feeling yucky all the time.

 

nikki2204 - July 11

I am so happy to have made it this far! But, I am feeling alot of symptoms...new and old ones from trimester 1. As long as I get passing results from my test, I will push through happily!!

 

mommywannabe - July 11

Well I'm glad you've made it that far too. I can't wait till you have your baby. YEAH!!

 

nikki2204 - July 11

Nurse just called. I guess all of my draws were good except the 2 hour one after I drank the glucose, it was a little elevated (Baby- it was 170, she said 155 is their normal range). All of the other draws were good. So, I am supposed to see his dietician and change my diet for the remainder of the pregnancy but do not have to check my blood sugars or anything like that.

 

BabyRN - July 11

nikki~ glad to hear that everything went fairly well! diet change isnt too bad, just carb counting usually. at least you dont have to poke your finger 4x a day! jsmith sorry to hear about those nasy bowel issues. ugh i had them too during my 1st tri when i was puking ALL the time! hope everything else is going well with you. tenk where are you? hi mommy!! glad to see you are still lurking around here LOL. have you heard from mega lately? how is she. i really need to email her myself. but i have about 16 lbs between me and the computer most of the time! lol :0)

 

Tenk - July 12

Hi girls, sorry I haven't been around in a while. I'm super happy for you JSmith......BTW you asked about showing sooner? I looked pregnant at like 6-8 weeks with all subsequent pregnancies. I hope this helps, but yes it is totally normal. I'm just hanging out now. The new job I started is just not working out. I feel like I'm being racially discriminated against but because I'm white and we live in the south no one will take the case. So I'm stuck looking for another job. I don't even care if we get pregnant anymore but that I get a job that pays as well as my last 3 jobs. Very very frustrated. Love to you all girls!!!

 

mommywannabe - July 12

Bumpity, bump, bump...O-H-I-O, where my ladies at??? LOL!!! I miss you all.

 

mommywannabe - July 12

Should we make a part 7???
