The clock is ticking.......Well iam 23 years old, mother of two and last bundle of joy on the way! My oldest is 6 and youngest is 3....and boy let me tell u besides the actual pregnancie fatigue these two can wear u out lol!I don't know about yall ladies but I'm defiently counting the days now, iam 28 weeks today and can defiently feel it catching up to me.Isn't it such a beautifel thing tho I really enjoy each and every lil movement it kinda gets me threw the day and reminds me of what's to come. At the beginning of my preg my doc said he will prob take the baby 3 weeks early I didn't question him because if all is well that sounds GOOD to me,my other 2 children were born by csection so of course this will be a repeat as well I just hope and pray for the best and continue to count the days until I finally get to meet her. Heather Flashing light on my bellyRight on thanksgiving day of this year 2008. I read and article saying to try a flashing light, and put it on my belly and she reacted in lots of movents. And the reaction, she moved and kicked me so hard and she also followed the light and felt her touches inside as well. That moment felt so beautiful and cute. I told my husband and I told him, probably our little girl will probably a kickboxing champ. And everything felt soo beautiful and funny, her tickling and kicking and moving was cute! Carolina The Perfect PregnancyI am 21 years old and expecting my first child in January 2009. I have to say so many people have to told me so many stories and cant relate to any of them. Im in my third trimester 31 weeks to be exact and besides my weight I couldnt tell that I was pregnant. Yeah I lost my period but I didnt have morning sickness or none of that other stuff. However my fatigue was more than I can imagine because for a person that didnt work I would be sleepy as ever. Also, Im starting to get heartburns but theyre not that bad. Not bad at all actually as long as I drink plenty of water. I do eat whatever but they key is IN MODERATION. But hey pregnancy is not as bad as people imagine it to be. The excellent part is when she moves and I can feel her like a wave motion. I havent gotten to the being able to tell if its a foot or her hand but its still amazing. While I only have but a little time to go I just hope labor is an amazing experience like this has been. So believe that every pregnancy is different. Eventhough it doesnt hurt to listen to others story just dont think youre going to go through it all because you may not.Zakiah alonerecently my boyfriend dumped me and moved back home it hurts everyday im 38weeks pregnant and very unhappy he calls but only to argue and tell me awful things when i first got pregnant i was scared and sad but he promised to be there for me and our son now he just dogs me out when where on the phone and say that the baby is not his and all this and that it hurts and i have never been so unhappy in my life i was so stupid to think that he cared for me we were together almost two yrs now im alone......Zakiah i have been waiting for soo longI am 36wks pregnant and expecting a baby boy. After 3 miscarriages and being in and out of the hospital i am finally going to have a baby. Our journey has not being an easy one, i have been vomitting excessively eversince i was 3 wks pregnant and had to be hospiyalized several times because of it. We went through periods of bedrest lasting 3 months at a time at hospital . I got a stomach bacteria from all the vomitting and had to be on antibiotics for 6 wks in my second trimester and there were moments when i thought that was it i was going to loose this amazing gift that was given. Many friends and family thought i should just give up and make the decision to have the doctors take the baby because i lost soo much weight and looked almost like a starved child from Africa rather than a pregnant woman. I have overcome bleeding , blood transfusions, cervix dropping, suttures and i am still vomitting and taking 50 mg of gravol IM 3 times a day . It has not being easy but i have waited for soo long for this miracle to come true and i still wake up everyday amazed that he is healthy , i may still vomitt and bleed occationally but its been amazing being pregnant. Feeling him move inside of me and knowing that soon i get to hold, kiss, hug and love that bundle of joy makes it all worth while.This story is for all the moms whose trimesters have not been like traditional ones but there is hope and in the end its all worth it.keasha Page: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33 | ||||||||||||||||
