Welcome! I'm michelle, 16, and 31 weeks pregnant with my first son, nathaniel philip.

Hi! I'm erin - 22 and married and 31 weeks pregnant with our first, a litlte girl, tru cathren. Welcome!

Hey amanda! I'm lauren, 22, not pregnant and no kids! I see that your from alabama, what part? I'm in birmingham! Its good to have you!

How much weight have you gained hun? What was ur starting weight? Are you all tummy? You should gain 10 pounds every 3 months...

But hi hun i'm jess 18 and 21 weeks pregnant

He he im amanda too lol!! Welcome!

just to clarify, that's a really good guideline, but depending on how much you weighed when you started, it could still be completely healthy for you to gain significantly more or less. For instance, if you weight 90 pounds and were severly underweight, gaining 50-60 pounds slowly would be heathly. If you started out at 170 pounds, gaining 30-40 pounds may be too much for you. Gaining as little as 10 pounds would still be healthy.

10 lbs every 3 months..Hmm..

98-120.. 22 lbs..Im turning 8 months in 2 weeks..Lol. I think im a lil underweight

hi amanda! Glad to have you here, you'll make a lot of friends here, the girls here are great and very supportive. Im ka btw, 14 years & 29.5wks pregnant

Thank you everyone! And its nice to meet all of you. I have tried warm baths, and that does seem to help my back, thanks amanda. Also, my mom found me a heating pad and that helps a lot...Im sort of becoming dependent on it at night. I think ive gained about 15 lbs...Its hard to tell since im not sure of my exact weight before the pregnancy.
I go to the doctor tomorrow afternoon for my 2nd ultrasound, so im really excited to see if she's still a girl and how much bigger shes gotten. She moves all the time now, especially when im trying to sleep. Such a brat...(j/k)
im really geting tired of being pregnant already...I wish she would just hurry up and come out!

Awww! I'm having my second ultrasound next wednesday, I can't wait!!!! I'm sure he's still a boy since it was reallllly obvious at the last one! He stread his legs *wide* open and let everyone see what he had! Haha

im from huntsville...Thanks!

Hey amanda, welcome to the forums. I am sure you are doing just fine...And if you have concerns dont be afraid you consult your doctor, thats what he/she is there for. My name is kristin, im from wisconsin, 17 years old and had a miscarriage awhile back. Welcome to the forum. Any names for your baby girl yet?

Huntsville.. Isn't that near you erin? For some reason I think I remember you saying something about it

Aww...Well we're almost positive that this one's a girl...Unless he just has a tiny penis lol. I really have a strong feeling that its a girl, but im happy with either! Im having a lot more trouble coming up with girls names than boys, however...I get so frustrated trying to find a name!

Really amanda?
I always had trouble coming up with boys names..And yep that what I was pregnant with...A baby boy. Hehe, I had so many baby girls name though. Well, normally the feeling is right.
Hope your back starts feeling better.

Erin its like an average I know ka needs alittle more weight and like some alittle less

I think im just too picky...I like the name ella grace, but my last name begins with a g too, so her initials would spell egg...I dont know, maybe that shouldnt matter lol
i also like isabella and clare, since thats my middle name and my grandmother's name. I really like feminine sounding names and old fashioned names, im not too into the modern ones and unisex names

I am sure you will find a perfect one! Remember just as long as you like it, that is all that matters.
