21 weeks - 133 days to go!!!

how many more week do you have?! current symptoms?? -- our baby boy has been so active, my boobs are still leaking every now & then, and I have a feeling this heartburn isn't going away aaaaaanytime soon!!! lol

October 24th seems soooo close, yet so far away! trying to get my ideas together for the baby shower, just started my first registry, anticipating our next OB appointment on the 26th (I'll be 22w6d then).. which will be followed by our anatomy scan at the hospital (don't know when or where until I see my OB) & I assume the sugar test will follow behind that? I've been tested for diabetes in the past, and I'm not looking forward to that drink again! "/

it's all for my baby boy though! the aches, pains, heartburn, rolling out of the bed, scooting off the couch, peeing every 10 minutes, the mood swings, shortness of breath, etc.

love IS blind.. I've yet to see your face Colby Lee, and I'm already in LOVE with you!!! grow baby, grow! & I'll take advantage of being the only one who gets to enjoy you for now!! ((((:

ladies, keep us in your prayers & I'll of course be doing the same for you!
we love & thank you so much!!!! ❤

Due October 27th but will have her on the 20th or 21st. My next appointment is the 27th. :) Last night she was so active. I could feel her on the outside and she wouldn't stop! I can't believe how active she is!

4-5 weeks come Monday (unsure if the Dr is going to induce me). I can't believe how fast the time has flown. Two more weeks and we'll be entering my (and his) birth month, eeekkkk. ♡♡

@Candy_T: ahhhhh I can't believe how quick your time has passed!!! is your doctor debating on inducing you? I'm not sure about my OB either.. she says I'm high risk b/c of my colon disease, but we haven't talked about delivery yet? I may need to bring that up.. hmm! yayyy for 2 more weeks!!!!!!! ((((:

well I may be petite & all, but I NEVER thought I'd feel him from the outside so soon.. I just never, ever thought he'd be that strong by now?! I made a note of the first night I ever did & I think I was 18w2d? I was so excited & freaked out at the same time lol!

Yes, I will be doing ALL of what comes with giving birth.....just at home.  Trusting God 100% is NOT easy, a lot of naysayers are around me. It gives me MORE power, and God all the glory. He's the one making it all possible, Doctors are practicing physicians. God is the creator. The End of story. Be blessed mommy-to-be. My last girl will be 12 Oct 25

The heart burn never goes away it will follow u though out the pregrancy and all other symptoms. Currently i am anemic and have high blood pressure..so taking it easy.  I hate always feeling so dizzy and tired, but normal dr says bc my condition. But looking forward to meeting my second.child.. I have 3yr old and shes so excited to be big sis!

@Natty929: well AMEN!! I think that's amazing.. I wish I had the willpower to do that.. God is definitely the created, and I trust him 100%.. but I've had so many medical issues it'd be best for me to give birth in the hospital.. "/
good luck, and congratulations!!!! (((:

@mamabear8911: awwwwe, congratulations! & yes, this heat in South Carolina is something else.. and it's no where near over! I don't complain though, enjoying every minute of it!! please do take it easy though, I hope your symptoms get better soon!! I know your little girl has to be super excited!! ((:

Im nearly 26wks so 14wks to go and I'm trying to be incredibly patient with this pregnancy however heartburn is a pain in the butt cheek and seriously will be glad to see the back of its ugly face. I'm having another little girl. I've got one already whos 2 and a son whos 3. We are calling her Ferne. This has changed once already but I'm 90% this name has stuck. Congratulations to all you mummy's xx

@novembermommy1104: lucky youuuu!!! lol that's great though! - I'm the same way.. I worry if I haven't felt him move, but drinking something super cold then laying on my right side usually works for him! I know everyone says the left side, but for some reason I feel him WAY more (at least right now) when I lay on my right side!

luckily he's pretty active, and I've felt him every day since 17w6d! he kicked me pretty hard yesterday too.. it's just so amazing! I had no idea he could be that strong already! (((:
