And FX today is the day DM!
Congrats, L! You'll have to keep us updated when you can.
DM - hope you are feeling better soon and have a wonderful birth very soon!
I've been checking in but not posting much. My blood pressure has settled down so I'm hoping they forget about induction and let me go naturally. Can't wait to see some more babies born! Time has flown by, I'm at 35.5 weeks now.
Yay Lobella, congratulations! My DS1 was 6lb 4oz - love diddy babies :D Enjoy your babymoon, can't wait to hear how you're getting on.
Ugh DM, it should be your turn right?! I'll go back to thinking labour thoughts for you now you're feeling well again. I'm glad the sickness has gone.
Hi Tweedle! What's your due date? We must be literally days away from each other! So glad to hear your blood pressure has settled down.
Congratulations Lobellla!!! I love her name :heart:
lobella -what a cute little baby! I secretly wish for a smaller baby like yours!

Congrats Lobella!! Can't wait to see a picture!
DM- Hang in there sweetie....not much longer!!!
So I am waiting in line I guess......hopefully not much longer for us!
Huge congrats Lobella!! Can't wait to see a picture if you want to post one, when u get to it!
Congrats on your baby Lobella!
Thanks everyone. I am loving my little girl. We get to go home tomorrow and I can't wait to sleep in my bed. Lily and I are both doing well. She is nursing well already. I will try to post pics in the next few days.
DM I keep checking in to see if you have had your baby. I hope you are feeling better and that you will be holding your little girl very soon!
:princess: Congratulations Lobella!!! My little girl was tiny too--6;7. I had such a wonderful delivery and what's great is when they are that little, they are little for longer (she wore newborn clothes up until last week--at 5 weeks)! Glad you're enjoying her!!!
Daily check in! LOL! STILL HERE....
Thanks for the positive labour thoughts, everyone!! I'll take all the vibes I can!! I dug up the thread on gender guesses a few days ago and had a laugh over my guess(last August). I guessed girl, born on the 21st in the early am....so maybe tomorrow will be the day??? Gawd, I hope so.....I'm feeling a bit bigger with this pregnancy and measuring a little larger as well so the guess about baby being 7lb14oz doesn't feel right....LOL
I would LOVE to have a small little baby...my first was 7.7oz and my last 2 were 8.7oz, so chances are I won't get a little rosebud of a daughter....instead I'll get a chunk;) As long as she fits into a few newborn outfits that first week...it's all good!!
I've been getting TONS of calls...from people who would normally call me once a year, like cousins, aunts, etc...it's getting ANNOYING! I've stopped answering the phone but then they harass my hubby by txt. I just want to tell them all to F-O. We've told them they will get an email when it happens(too many people to call so we're calling our close family and friends)but that we will be sleeping after the birth and we will not be rushing to get the info to them. They don't like this....I don't really give a rats ass if they do or not. Do I sound a bit harsh?? lol
I think today is cleaning day AGAIN....and I'm going to get a few more birth supplies out and ready. I'm feeling great today so I'm really hoping this means that baby is coming soon!
Tweedle~ I can't believe you are nearly there! Princess, yourself, Z and Dannikans are all right after one another! YAY Babies!!!!! So exciting!!!!
B- It's so nice to have you on here posting :HH: I miss your posts and love reading about you and your new girly :awe:
So...is anyone else on FB? It's nice to keep in touch and I don't know how often I'll be on here in the next few months. Send me a pm if you're up for being a "friend"! ;)
We're a day apart then :D
I'm glad you're feeling great DM, sounds like it's a good time for that little bubba to arrive! I hope your predicted birth date was right :D I've lost count of the number of people who've asked me how long I have left this week - on the one hand it's lovely that they're interested but on the other I feel like I should put a little sign on my tummy so I don't have to keep saying it!
Also PM me if you want to stay in touch on FB!
Pregnant in 2012 roll call! If you want on the list...just reply to the thread! Thanks!!

I am on facebook also.
huge congrats lobella!
looking forward to seeing some pics...:)
I had so much trouble logging on these past two days but they reset my password and I'm on! I don't want to lose track of everyone either. I've somehow managed to come on with a new baby but I'm afraid things will only get more hectic once the kids are out of school--they only have a few weeks left. So PM me too if you wanna stay in touch via FB. I'm on that more often cause I can keep in touch with family and friends as well! I will post a recent pic of Eva soon too. She's growing so fast and smiles a lot more now too:) I love her precious smiles. sending lots of labor vibes!
Still stalking!:wink:
Not much to report here......yesterday we finally got a spot cleared out for the baby to sleep! :bigsmile: And today I am feeling it! This afternoon we have a going away party for some friends to attend.....and the weather has been warm and sunny...I LOVE IT!! :HH:
I think I have been losing little bits of my mucus plug (sorry TMI) and having lots more BH contractions. So hopefully things are getting readier!! :pray:
DM - you out there? Any baby yet??? Sending you tons of labour vibes....:HH:
Yeah - I noticed she hasn't posted on FB yet today, and lately she's been giving a 'no baby yet' update every day. I think her prediction has come true and her baby is coming today!!! :luck:
No Baby! Just a late check-in! We went for a 2hr long walk, I've been doing a few acupressure points, some nipple stim...nothing is happening. Which I'm ok with right now:) This weekend has been amazing so far and I'm trying not to focus too much on labour happening. Thank you so much for the vibes though!! I appreciate it! Mwa! xoxo
Just checking on DM! What no baby? It's the 22 already! LOL This is a great day for a baby my DD is born on the 22 too! hehe
Anyway all this try to bring up labour never helped me. So both times when my babys came on their own I did not do a thing!
I was laying on the sofa watching a movie stand up to go pee and went back to lay down and my water broke.
Maybe try and be lazy like I was?:rofl:
That's my next step, Flava! Pure and utter laziness! No cleaning the house, let the dishes build up...the baby will come for sure if my house looks like a pig-pen!! LOL
I have been trying to post pictures but when I upload them and preview they are huge and take up more than the screen. Any suggestions?
DM that was my next step too. I was going to let the house become a mess and then I thought the baby would come. How are you feeling?
Kinda crampy, L. Thinking that MAYBE something is happening but then again I've been dtd like a mad woman lately...lol
Who knows...I'm not holding my breath;) I hope you can get the pics figured out! I'm dying to see your little Bubba!! :)
Oooohhh - how exciting, DM. Get some rest - you may be up late tonight! :HH:
lobella - I've heard some people say they email the pictures to themselves first and select 'small' as the size - this automatically resizes them. There are other ways to resize them, of course, but that might be the easiest.
Here she is sound asleep in her chair. She has been a pretty easy baby so far. She eats well and sleeps well. Let's hope she keeps it up.

She's gorgeous, lobella!!
Ahh she's so precious Lobella!!! We're probably going to name our daughter (still can't belive I'm writing that!) Lillian Elizabeth. Elizabeth was my middle name and a family name (my grandma was Elizabeth in her 1st name.)
that's the only thing I worry about, I hear about a lot of Lillies online and see the name alot this year. But we really like it and still got some time before she comes.
Mocha - I love Sadie and it was on my list. My sister had a life sized doll when we were little and her name was Sadie and I told her she should use it but alas she's not :D
Lobella - she really is gorgeous, congratulations again!
DM - kinda crampy is good :D Every now and again my bubba gets really low and it makes me feel crampy which in turn reminds me of how labour feels. Mother Nature has done a very good job of letting me forget that up until now!
I finish work at the end of this week - yay!!
Omgosh!!! She's absolutely gorgeous!!! Squeeee!! I'm just so excited that I get my little pink bundle (hopefully) soon! Enjoy your babymoon!! xo
And there are a lot of Lily's here!!! Crazy!! Add me to the count for a middle name!
auroara - I wouldn't worry about it. It's a classic name - it will never sound outdated, which is more than you can say for a lot of the trendy names out there.
I'm just soooo happy that I'm finally having a girl so I can finally use the names dh and I picked out when we first talked about having kids! His grandmother has since passed away, which makes using her name even more meaningful. I'm also THRILLED that I can surprise my mom (and best friend) by also naming the baby after her! We never tell any family or friends (other than you guys ;)) the name until the baby's born.
I'm still a week and a half away from my 20 week scan where I'll hopefully hear girl again and can stop being convinced my baby will grow a penis. I will admit I'm finding it reeaaaallly hard to resist running off for a private scan at the local place this week to have that reassurance a little earlier!
DM - I bet you'll be holding your wee pink bundle by tomorrow. I can't wait to hear about your dh's reaction when he sees it's a girl!
lobella, she is toooooo cute.!
DM good luck!, heres hoping the cramping is the begining of something happening.
we havent discussed names yet, we will wait untill its born and see the gender before we figure it out.
i have no idea how we will choose another boys name, we have used all the ones i like already.
as far as girls names go, i like Sasha.
im really worried im setting myself up for dissapointment.
the last few weeks im thinking its a girl, as in, im totally convinced , and there is no way it could be a boy, im hoping its intuition, and not just desire taking over.
trying really hard to prepare myself for it being a boy, but i just cant get the idea of it being a girl out of my head, its driving me insane, i just want time to go faster so i can find out what it is....lol
Thanks everyone! We are so in awe of her, especially my son. I would have thought my daughter would be the one to love on her the most. She has been looking forward to her birth so much. But my son has been singing to her and being really sweet with her. My daughter might be slightly jealous.
I worried about there being a lot of kids named Lily also. We just really liked it and figured we didn't care. All my kids ended up with common names. I think because I have an unusual name I chose really common ones for my kids:)
