Write a new blog

21-10-2009 - thoughts...worries...joys...etc

My mood while writing this blog:
wishy washy

Thoughts: I'm a basket case lately :( just about EVERYTHING makes me cry...gosh i know im driving the husband CrAZy!!!! does anyone think or know if the more emotional you are during the pregnancy the more likely you will be to have postpartum depression? am i being paranoid lol :)

Worries: the baby really isn't moving around as much as other 21 week babies...i know it differs so maybe im being paranoid about this too...lol...like a week or so ago it was moving more than it is now..so shouldn't the movements be getting stronger? you would thimk...huh? idk....gosh i hate being new at this lol

Joys: our level II ultra sound is next Friday...we will find out the gender then!!!! :-) we also got our Alpha-Beta Protien test results back...they were negative for Downs & Spine abnormalities :-)!!!! i have only gained about 13 pounds...in my eyes that's GREAT...but is that about normal?

Thanks for reading and listening to my rambling :-)

Laura & little bit :-D

Aww poor thing! It sounds like everything is completely normal! i can relate to the worrying about everything! This is my 3rd baby so you would think i would be a pro but i have been literally driving myself crazy! Lol it will start getting better! Baby will start getting stronger and moving more frequently but at this point i think its completely normal for movements to be irregular! My babies movements are too! Somedays he is going crazy in there and others i hardly feel him. Hope you feel better and know you are not alone! Have fun at your u/s cant wait to hear what you are having!

hmm it also depends on where the baby is vs the placenta, it could be causing u to not feel alot of the movements! dont worry about being emotional lol it happens to us all! sounds like everything is goin well tho, excited for the gender scan haha good luck xxx

Hey you, my baby's movement has also been worrying me as I will go a few days not 'feeling' it but I think its still just early - I have my next scan next Monday as well so this will be when I guess we will both know if everything is ok. P.S. I also have not gained much weight as I lost so much from sickness. I was 61 kilos before pregnancy and am only 63.3 kilos now.. hope it helps to reassure you! Certainly reading your blog did for me! xx
