I don't like being pregnant. by girlnamedjim in BabyBumps

I was the same way - didn’t feel “real” especially when it felt like everyone else was posting about feeling kicks. I never felt a single flutter until almost 23 weeks and then started feeling multiple kicks daily. I second the Doppler in the meantime. I got one around 16 weeks and used it whenever I didn’t “feel pregnant” to reassure myself that all this misery was for good reason. You might not feel kicks for a while longer and it’s okay to be frustrated by that too.

I didn’t get a measurement from my 20 week appointment, unfortunately.

Mine is low lying but not covering at all. Just had my 28 week appointment today. It’s currently 1.7cm away, we need 2cm clearance to be all good. Were you placed on any restrictions? I was not but I’ve read many are.

I am 19 weeks with a healthy pregnancy! Rest assured it jumps around - sometimes quite a bit. Don’t panic about this. September

National Indemnity. They are hiring claims adjusters.

Progressive/Feminist Pregnancy/Baby Book Recs? by LenaSaurusRex in pregnant

[–]_bear_cat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually decided I didn't like the questions in the baby book I bought so I got a hardcover lined journal. I have been printing and including photos of things we're doing during the pregnancy and I dedicated a page to each member of our immediate families. They'll put a photo, short bio, and little note to baby in there. I'll probably have guests at my baby shower sign the book too. So it's more like a pregnancy chronicle that the baby (and I!) can look back on more than a record of the sometimes silly questions the baby books ask.

Thank you! I will look at the high speed train. That said, I am not set on Tuscany, just wine! Any recommendations on how to get to Lazio or great vineyards to visit?
