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!!!! ❤

@Ayley_Dru: I can sympathize with both of those symptoms as well!!! lol!

@Smattos1021: I don't remember what normal nipples feel like anymore.. lol! & like I said, I have NO idea when I have to have the diabetes test done, but I have a feeling I might whine and/or pitch a fit over it haha!! very true though, willing to do it, just ready to get it over with. I'll be praying for a healthy, happy, and easy delivery for you too!! there's no way I could push out a baby that size! lol

@HannahJohnson: omg!!! PUSH ALREADY!! lol jk -- thank goodness you'll finally have that baby out & in your arms.. I can't believe the contractions stopped for you though!! "/ soon though, very soon.. can't wait to see baby pics!!! (((:

115 days to go, almost 24 weeks (on Tuesday) and surprisingly have no symptoms but my nipples are sore off and on. I have to go in for the diabetes test on July 8th and am not looking forward to it! But I just want to make sure my little Declan is healthy so I'm more than willing. I get ultrasounds every 2 weeks starting that day to make sure he wont get too big. Daddy was about 10lbs and looked like a toddler coming out and I was almost 9lbs. Praying for an easy delivery but we'll see!

I hope you're all continuing to do great :)

@natjayne: you don't have long to go at all! (I'm sure that's easier for me to say than you lol) -- heartburn is unreal.. I never knew how much of a pain it really was. I never understood those heartburn commercials until now! lol! congratulations to you too!!! ((:

@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! (((:

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

@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!! ((:

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
