Thank you for the support!
[name_f][/name_f]@_thelittlefairywren[name_f][/name_f] Im glad you like it, [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] has never been on my list until a couple of days ago that I suddenly felt in love with it, as for M@bel I think it sounds better in english, in my language I dont like how its pronounced, but we’ll see.
[name_f][/name_f]@turnip[name_f][/name_f] if we end up using [name_f]Amelia[/name_f] Id like to find a different nickname! Maybe something like Mel/Meli/Mimi I dont know yet
[name_f][/name_f]I don’t think it’s a problem that your nephew has that middle name, if [name_m]Fox[/name_m] is your favourite I wouldnt doubt it! i really like [name_m]Fox[/name_m] btw, specially as a middle

@jules95[name_f][/name_f] congratulations!! Fingers crossed for you that this little one grows healthy and strong!
[name_f][/name_f]@turnip[name_f][/name_f], awe how sweet, another boy! Congratulations! I love [name_m]Desmond[/name_m] [name_m]Fox[/name_m] btw. I don’t think it’s a big deal for cousins to share a middle name. Several of my siblings and cousins on one side share middles and no one blinks an eye.
[name_f][/name_f]@AlSP[name_f][/name_f] both options are pretty! I hope you can find something both of you love 
We’re tossing around [name_f]Isla[/name_f] [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f] atm. It checks several boxes for us but I don’t know if I can commit yet

Well nausea and headaches seem to have hit me overnight from [name_f]Tuesday[/name_f] to [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f]. I’m trying to consciously increase my water consumption and eat little snacks throughout the day, but I’m definitely having a little trouble adjusting. At least this gives me more hope for a sticky little one though!

I’ve had vomiting and nausea daily during the first trimestre with both pregnancies, it sucks but I do think you should take it as a sign that things are progressing nicely
I’m already 18 weeks along, I feel fine, my belly is really big, maybe like my 24 week belly in my previous pregnancy. I’m a little concerned that I dont feel the baby’s movement yet. Last time I started to feel bubbles at 18w and kicks at 20w, but its supossed to happen earlier in a second pregnancy! I have anterior placenta this time so I hope it’s just that.
How is everyone doing?

I am about 14 wks now. [name_f]My[/name_f] tummy has been growing and my pants barely fit. [name_f]My[/name_f] mat clothes that i already have are mainly just tights for winter, but its summer here so i need something new. I was going to get new mat pants before my new job this week, but everything is closed. I was symptom free a couple weeks ago but insomia, back pain, etc has come back full swing.
[name_f][/name_f]On the bright side, i heard his heartbeat last week at my dr appt. A healthy 140. That eases my mind.

17 weeks now. I’m definitely showing now but haven’t had to break out the maternity clothes quite yet. Still, my body changing has really increased my back and joint pain. I hate that there isn’t much to do for it.
[name_f][/name_f]Anyhow, I haven’t definitively felt [name_m]Baby[/name_m] moving either. I thought I felt some bubbles today but I’m not sure. I can’t remember when I first felt my son moving but I know it took awhile (anterior placenta). I read it was supposed to be sooner with subsequent pregnancies but that isn’t the case so far!
[name_f][/name_f]I do have a check up this week so hopefully hearing her heartbeat will bring some comfort. Then the anatomy scan is at the end of the month! Ahhh! It’s happening so fast.

@OliveShoot[name_f][/name_f] [name_m]Welcome[/name_m]! Exciting, another girl! Any idea on names? If this baby was a girl, she would’ve been [name_f]Fern[/name_f]
@namergirl3[name_f][/name_f] I remember being able to feel my son kind of late-ish, too, only because I was starting to get a little worried. Can’t believe your anatomy scan is so soon! It’s funny, you are only a few weeks ahead of me, but it seems like a lifetime. Then the babies come and everyone blends together.

With my first I felt kicks early and with my second I felt them a lot later, maybe by 4 weeks or so. It was due to anterior placenta!

I love [name_m]Desmond[/name_m] [name_m]Fox[/name_m], by the way! And agree it doesn’t matter about cousins sharing. We have some names that are shared amongst cousins in the first or middle spots too).
[name_f][/name_f]This baby will probably be [name_f]Birdie[/name_f] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f]!

I swear, these babies love to keep us on our toes lol! And it doesn’t ever seem to stop 
We had a sort of funny appointment today. [name_f]My[/name_f] OB is roughly an hour away from where we live, so it isn’t exactly convenient, especially for short appointments. However, the one I saw last time (they have you see a team) had requested I come in in two weeks’ time. Thought it was odd but thought he just wanted to follow up with a couple of things we discussed. So we got there today, dealing with the remnants of a snow storm, and he was like “wait, I just saw you! Why did I want to see you again so soon?!” Neither of us had any idea so he just got out the doppler and listened to the baby’s heartbeat for a minute. We drove all that way for that! DH and I had a good laugh and looked at it as at least we got an extra check up on our little girl!

@OliveShoot[name_f][/name_f] [name_f]Birdie[/name_f] [name_f]Katherine[/name_f] is so cute!! 
15 weeks today. I have definitely felt movement this past week. It feels like little flutterings or light tapping. I’m very excited because it took quite a while (or so it seemed) with my first. I also have a “bump”. I was already fat to begin with, though, so it just looks like I’ve gained weight in the stomach to outsiders!
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Mat[/name_m] clothes will be in order in a few weeks. Over the weekend, I took my son to swimming class and was feeling a bit snug in my swimsuit. I really don’t want to buy a mat swimsuit just to have for a few months, so it will be Dad’s turn to do swimming lessons for a while

@turnip[name_f][/name_f] [name_f][/name_f]- [name_m]Just[/name_m] popping in to say that I bought a maternity tankini style top for swimming and it was built to be nursing friendly! I still wear it 9 months post partum and it’s been great! With the right style you can get a lot of use out of it, and being in the pool later in pregnancy (especially as summer comes!) can be so relaxing and relieve those aches/pains! I ordered mine from Old [name_f]Navy[/name_f] of all places.
I’m at 8 + 1 today! But it’s also the first day that I started gagging at my desk at work and had to run to the bathroom. I still haven’t actually puked, but we’re getting dangerously close. [name_f]My[/name_f] first prenatal visit is 3 weeks from today though and I can’t wait!

Thank you so much, feels good to hear that! I’m almost 20w and still hasn’t definitively felt the baby, can’t wait until [name_f]Tuesday[/name_f] to have my US done.
When I had an anterior placenta I didn’t feel movement until closer to the 24 week mark. With my 2nd that didn’t have an anterior placenta I could feel her at 13/14 weeks. So placenta placement can definitely make a huge difference!

I was almost 25w before I definitively felt my first that I just had and I didn’t have an anterior placenta! It really varies!
