Part 11: Due December 2017,Jan, Feb, March 2018

Sky - my test is nov 20th so over a week yet. And here we don't get a scan past 20 weeks unless something is wrong. Which is odd to me because I had a 3rd trimester scan with my other 2 but things have changed I guess.

Dancing - I don't agree with DH literally guilting you into what he wants without considering your feelings too. Have you explained the risk of depression after birth by not finding out and how you can work through your feeling beforehand if you know now? I had PPD with my 2nd pretty bad (not gender related so not much could've prevented it) and I really didn't want much to do with her. I feel guilty about it now because she's such a great and easy going kid but it took me a while to bond with her.

Bommy - congrats!

4blue2pink- How on earth did you go 5 weeks with no name? We can't even leave the hospital until all the paperwork is filled out lol.

Xx- How cute! I love girl clothes!

mommaxo3 we get 6 weeks to register the birth over here, after that you risk being fined, im hoping we can find a girl name sooner this time if baby is a girl though!! its my own fault because i have so many weird "rules" when it comes to girls names that i dont have for boys

Awe XX olivian is just a darling xoxo

Sky my next scan is Nov 28th !

Haven’t read much but sky if you get an epidural I seriously haven’t felt a darn thing. I have pain until I can’t stand it and then I opt for epidural I fall asleep and when I wake up puking I know it’s time. Few pushes later I have baby. I know everyone is so different but that’s my vag birth history.

I love epidurals !
Made birth such a enjoyable experience compared to my non epidural birth so I am all for it.

I’ve been off the meds for 2.5 weeks now. The medicine was making my BP get too low. Since then, my BP has been normal and getting back to my pre-pregnancy BP. Of course continued weight loss and exercise will help [emoji6]. I’ve already cleaned up my diet, calories are reigned in, and starting my beloved T-25 (I love Shaun-T [emoji39]) next weekend! I’m staying fit so I can be around for as much of Olivian’s life as possible!!

Here is a pic of her on her 1 month birthday:

Gorgeous little girl she is. Love her outfit. Glad you are getting back to your routine and bp is coming back to normal too. I am sure you will be back to your old self in no time. You inspire me. Share a picture of you with Olivian when you can. Who does she look like?

sky im glad you are being given both options of delivery :) and no the kids dont know im pregnant, we always keep it as a surprise for them when baby arrives, we are still team green :)

dancing im sorry your dh is being so difficult :( i know this sounds awful but is there any way you could find out and just not tell him? im not trying to encourage you to lie to him but i do think its very important that you do what is best for you in this situation :heart:

Wow, You are awesome for not letting the kids find out. I can only imagine the excitement of kids when they would see the Baby and had no clue about the pregnancy. This sounds so amazingly cute. So, how have they reacted in the past when they saw the baby. I am just so excited. [emoji4]❤️

Sky I'm going really well thank you! Boys are pretty excited, mostly the eldest as the youngest still doesn't really comprehend what it all means. They are both saying they want a sister now. Ds1 only wants a girl because (in his own words) "she wont want to play with my toys" and ds2 wants a sister now because that's what ds1 says [emoji23][emoji23]

Haha. “Won’t want to play with my toys “ kids are so cute. A friend of my dd told her to ask for a boy so that she won’t have to share her toys. [emoji12][emoji12] Glad that you are doing well. Do you have names for girl and boy? We are still searching. [emoji52]

Dancing - I agree with others that dh shouldn’t be guilting you if you want something different. His reasons are valid but so are yours. PPD is so real. I didn’t want to find out the gender but dh did and I respected that because we don’t always have to be wanting the same things yet respect each other’s wishes. I found out on my follow up anatomy scan and he had a hint since 12 week u/s. Try to talk to him again about all this. Hugs.
Ash - I took epidural with dd after I couldn’t bear the pain. I was on pitocin and walked for almost 4 hours.
Hope I could do it this time.
Bluebooties- I will be thinking about you and the baby. How are you doing?
Bommy - Congratulations. So happy for you.
Shann - Are you Home? How are you and the baby doing?
