Location: NC | Thistle2011 - 2014-01-05 1:16 PM 33 weeks and have gained about 22 pounds so far... thatis a lot better from the first pregnancy (45-50ish pounds). ....im a little disappointed though because im not very big :( with only about 7 weeks left ill tell someone im pregnant and they say... are you serious I didn't even know... im 130 at 5 2'. I have a very strenuous job and im starting to feel a lot of pressure on my pubic bone. I bought a bully bullion X miss n cash bred filly a couple months ago and im getting impatient on starting her!!! im ready to ride and train again. as for being ready for baby we have absolutely nothing for our baby girl Tegan Rose Mathias. the nursery is still the man cave/ computer room. ... I should probably get on that.
ohhhhh that sounds like a NICE cross, I bet you are impatient!

| Im 25 weeks, and feeling really good aside from this freakin heartburn! It doesn't seem to matter what the heck I eat or drink, it's gonna give me heartburn! I think I've gained about 20 lbs at this point, but its pretty much all belly and boobs, Im not to concerned. Kinda fun having boobs for the first time in my life! lol
Im still riding when we go to roping practice; my gelding has been off with an SI injury since August and was cleared to start riding for January, so I've been just riding him around a bit bareback and it feels good just to have some bonding time with him. Im not sure what his deal is, but he's developed a weird obsession with my belly and if I give him the chance he will lick my belly for as long as I'll let him. I dont know if theres something on my chore coat, or if he knows his future is being cooked up in there, but theres definitely something he's drawn to, and it cracks me up!
As far as our nursery... well, its still very much a "storage" (aka junk) room. Hubby is off work for a bit so he's been slowly puttering away at it, but he better pick up on the puttering, because we're getting closer and closer to game day here! haha.
Is anyone else's husbands being a HUGE pain to pick a name with?!?

Location: If I ever get back to Oklahoma..... | I will be 35 weeks on Thursday with our second. We had a sono on 12/23 and he was breech then, but it will be a repeat c-section. With our first one he was up in my ribs all the time and I had heck breathing. This one has been staying much lower and consequently my hips are killing me. It constantly feels like someone has kicked me in the crotch!
The baby's room will have to share with our office, since we are out of room. Eventually he will share with his brother, but for now I think they need to be seperated. We do have the crib in there, and are getting clothes around for this new one. Probably about a month to go yet...
We haven't decided on a name but have a few we like. I kept our list from the first one, and a couple of our likes are actually on that list! So we will see.. We didnt pick the first son's name until the week he was born!

| I'm 24 weeks today and have gained 16lbs. I gained 52 lbs with our daughter and I don't want to gain that much this pregnancy. During this last month, my appetite has definitely hit. I am hoping to only gain 25-35 lbs. | |

Location: Kansas | I was in on this when I was still pregnant and had my baby in October. She'll be three months on the 14th! Many of you posting here were pretty early in your pregnancies when I was winding down! I enjoy reading about all your pregnancies, but I don't miss being pregnant. I tried so hard not to whine, but the last month or so was brutal on my back and legs. I gained 43 pounds and have lost 30 of it so far. And it feels SO good to be back in the saddle! I thought I was going to try and ride all the way through, but there was no way that was happening. I did mange to walk my way through two of my three required NBHA shows, (my third was after she was born) so I'm qualified for state finals. Woohoo!
Oh, and if you are thinking about getting an epidural* but are unsure of what to do...get the freakin' epidural. I didn't have one with my first two, but I did with this one. Oh, my stars. I don't know why anybody would have a baby without one!
