Mela, thanks for the avi compliments! I promise I''m not ignoring you on facebook. I''ve just been really busy and have about 80 unread emails (agh!) most of which are notifications from facebook.
Pandora, ugh those employers of yours are just ridiculous. At least you have all of their antics documented. I''m kind of confused by the legal system over there. Will this ever be seen by a jury of your peers or will it be decided by a judge in the end? LOL about celebrating with cake. Mmmm, cake. Lydia and Desmond are pretty uncommon over here which is one reason I like them. Too funny about the dinosaur cartoon. Is it similar to Barney? My sister used to LOVE that show. She''d watch her tapes on repeat play. She turns 18 today. I feel old.
Lysser, sorry that you''re having anxiety issues. I don''t know if I agree with Neat about questioning whether or not it''s bad enough for meds meaning that you don''t need it. While I don''t think people should run to meds as their first course of action (not saying you are), I know that one thing that I learned in therapy (for sporadic anxiety and depression since I was 19) was to realize when I need to ask for help. I still struggle with this, but it seems like I always have at least a few moments before asking for/being put on meds where I think, "Do I really need this? I should be able to do this without them since so many other people do!" followed by disappointment in myself for not being able to handle the situations on my own. I definitely got to the point once where it was obvious to everyone close to me who knew what was going on that I needed them and I still had these thoughts. I hope you get it all figured out with your Dr. soon!
Neat, Maxwell is DH''s fave right now and has been for a while. Do you get a lot of people calling your Maxwell "Maxi?" I''m not a big fan of the nickname and I think that''s what''s mainly holding me back.
Thanks, Blen! I wonder if my grandparents put this much pressure on my parents when it was time to name me. I''m named after both of my mom''s grandmothers, so perhaps they did.
Thanks, Ebree!
Lindsey, 6 lbs in 4 weeks doesn''t sound so bad. I think I''d gained 8 inbetween my last appointment and my most recent one.
Natalina, I didn''t really have morning sickness. I had some pretty mild nausea, but it didn''t last for very long. You can actually hear the hb using the u/s as well, so if you see anyone saying they heard it pretty early, that''s generally how. We heard ours on the u/s at 8 weeks and on the doppler at about 10 weeks.
NYCSparkle, that''s so cute that your DH is thinking so far ahead!
Dreamer, thanks! It''s actually the camera. I take my bump pics myself using the mirror. I thought about photoshopping it out, but I was worried that I''d do all that work and it would look weird, lol. Sending tons of low fluid vibes!!! I hope your appointment goes well!
Fiery, is your appointment today or next Friday? I think I remember you saying that you''ll be 20 weeks tomorrow which would put us at a week apart. I think your EDD might be wrong on the PIW thread. It has you more than a week after me. I love the cake idea!
Mandarine, I''d definitely talk to your Dr., but like you said, it''s generally ok to continue what you were doing before unless you were training for a marathon or something. That being said, pay extra attention to your water intake and make sure you stay well hydrated.
