Ladies due in Sept/Oct/Nov 2012, gather here!

RABBIT RABBIT RABBIT is something you are supposed to say the first day of the month, when you wake up, before you say anything else, and then you get good luck all month. I think it is some really old British tradition (at least that's what wikipedia says). I have been doing it since I was a kid.

PP, is your name Piper? I know a couple little girls named that--it's a great name! Enjoy eating all that Chinese food. :)

Auroara, I wish your DH was as exited as you are about baby Lillian, but I am sure he will come around once she is born! Dads and daughters really have a special bond.

Chicken dishes (orange, sesame, mushroom, and bourbon), beef dishes (peppered and a veggie one), fried duck, veggie lo mein, fried rice, steamed rice, egg rolls for the boys, and soup (egg flour, hot and sour, and srimp w/veggies). Erick told me that I have to eat all the leftovers by myself before my weight check next monday before my ultrasound.

Sorry you are having weight issues! But YUM and huge win for getting all of that nummy food. I LOVE pretty much all Asian foods. We have a really amazing Thai place that is family owned. Best spring rolls I've ever had. :)

We used to have a Thai place but they raised the prices and lowered the portion size... so we started making our own Panang and I am still working on the Pad Thai. I like making my own Panang because I can add extra things like greenbeans, carrots, red peppers, onion, and garlic. I feel better about the extra veggies since the sauce is so fattening. Also I like fresh garlic over the powder that most places use.

I love all kinds of food but when I am prego DH craves Chinese which he hates all other times!

HappyLea your lucky your getting all girly votes!!! Looks like all your hard work has paid off! Fingers crossed for you its your girl!

I know its not 100 percent but I should of known this would happen to me It only would happen to me I knew it wouldnt work out.. Why did I even bother. I even was so sick from not eating the month before i got my bfp it was the pits.. I should of just dtd without even doing anything else! would of been the same outcome..

WAIT WHAT ANTIDEPRESSANT ARE YOU ON!?!? When did you start again?
I don't know where you live either but here in the USA there are lawsuits for them that they cause serious problems in pregnancy for both mother and child! Prozac is one. I need to look up the list.

I am on efexor 150mg.. started them this morning

That is one of them, but you can look it up online.

I know it's hard to wait... to find out the gender..
but the effects this drug can have to you and your baby just aren't worth it pinkin!! :(
My BFF's doc wanted her on Prozac, and she refused to take it.. because she knew about how they just aren't good to take while pregnant.

one example, there are a ton to search through.
google: lawsuits against effexor

Have you had your thyroid checked at all?

Oh really??? My ob gave them to me 2 weeks ago and actually said to me they were OK to take... Hmmm I will talk to d/h about it at lunch time he was not happy about me having them. I will look them up

Pinkin- sorry to hear your so down. Your baby can be a girl. I read your post and it sounded like u where saying u found out I started searching pages back. You have just as much a chance for a she. Why r u so convinced? I'm thinking if baby is a boy u have plenty of time to be upset and if it's a girl your grieving when u don't need to be. You'll have plenty of time later to be upset! Hope this makes sense. I've been honking of u. Replied again on your nun shot thread bc I know you've been nubsessing
