Second Trimister
Baby Bell, Are you kicking inside mommy's belly?
Week 15 - start of the second trimester
Little butterfly in my belly.. I think I can feel our little baby kicking already
It's official - were having a baby <3
Week 16...
2016-09-19
Having problem with my pelvis.. trouble lying on the bed in the evening because turning left or right can be painful.
bending my left leg sometimes or often can be painful. I wonder if this is how old people feels when they say their body is aching.. well it sucks :-( Lucky me I guess because I don't have much pain during the day. I probably have to start doing some execise. We'll see what the physiotherapist says on wednesday.
One good thing is that I've been getting up less in the evening to visit the toilet. Still getting pretty exhausted during the day, especially in the afternoon.
things that I miss?
- Having a glass of wine on a friday evening or whenerver we go out for dinner
- Eating sushi with raw fish
- Not feeling tired so early in the evening or during the day
- Getting up in the bed without having pain
- Not thinking what I eat, just eating what I feel like eating. (now I have to think twice what I put in my mouth)
- Going to bed without having to oil my tummy
- Not taking iron tablets...
Looking forward to...
Next week when we finally get to see our baby again :-)
Week 18 - Baby boy
We were excited to to see you for the second time.. our baby boy.
Ultrasound checkup went good. The midwife said everything looks fine, we've even got to see what you are inside mommy's belly - a baby boy. We saw your tiny fingers and your little feet and your tiny hands and your litte head. it looked like you even smiled at us, where you smiling aby boy?
I'm getting bigger everyday, it feels like I'm so big slaready but I think it's mostly because my tummy is bloated quite often. Don't know why really, because of stress? Am I eating too fast? eating too much? or mix of all of it.
It's amazing how you can love someone you've never met. Can't wait to see you baby <3

This week we had to do an extra ultra sound to make sure that baby is growing normal because my tummy is just under the "normal" measurement in the diagram. We went to the hospital and got baby Günter meassured, his head, body and legs. Good thing everything was normal, but he was sleeping during the ultrasound so we couldn't see him move. We wanted to see if he really is a boy, well atleast his daddy wanted to make sure :) If he continue to follow the curve he will be 3,5 kg before he comes out. That means I have to gain a minimum of 2,5 kgs.. sounds heavy.
One day this coming weeks I have to go to the hospital to do some lung test, just to make sure I don't have tuberculosis. A normal routine for mothers originating from countries with this kind of disease.
week 28..
Another check up is coming up...
Dec 12, 2016: How time flies.. on thursday is our next checkup.
Another blood test, urine test, weight and tummy measurement.
This time I just wish time to pass by quickly. It's getting heavier each day and baby you are getting wilder in mommy's tummy. I guess you can't wait to come out either..
