Due Sept/Oct/Nov 2017 (6)

Congrats Roe and wantanother!! Wow, what gorgeous babies! It's so exciting coming onto this site and seeing new babies every time! Hope you're both feeling well and settling in back at home nicely.
Eve is now 2 months old can you believe! We are complete with our three kids.. I physically am not allowed to have any more anyway. I have a question, everyone that knows they are done, so you guys feel kind of sad? Well, not sad, more like bittersweet? I constantly feel torn between wanting her to grow and then wanting to pause time because she is my last and I'll never have a newborn again. It's such a strange feeling knowing that this is my last baby!
Anyway, here are some more professional photos of when she was 5 days old and now at 2 months ��

Such beautiful pics of your children Mama-of-boys!

I just felt done when we found out we were pregnant with our 4th. For me, 4 is the max. Our family just feels complete. I’m still in the throes of the newborn stage, so I haven’t had time yet to see if I’ll be weepy about not having another baby. I’m sure I’ll feel bittersweet like you mentioned though. I think as mothers it’s only natural to feel that way, even if you’re done.

[emoji254]Thank you Gender Dreaming for our precious little girl![emoji254]

Mama-of-boys she is so adorable!!

I'm not even un-pregnant yet and I feel the bittersweet, yes. Time is crazy... and I have teenagers, it's going too fast...

I have resolved every season has wonderful and not wonderful parts, I want to spend some time writing what I love and love less, along the way, so I can enjoy it in retrospect too.

Saying goodbye to my reproductive life will be strange and sad and I plan to celebrate and mark it somehow... because it's note-worthy. You have done a beautiful job... [emoji175]

Thanks ladies for your lovely comments :)
Yes it's strange isn't it! I also felt done as soon as I fell pregnant and we feel totally complete. But there is just something bittersweet about having your last baby I think. I find that I'm savouring each moment much more and reminiscing about all three of them as newborns, theirs births etc. However it is also nice knowing that I'll never be pregnant again and that we can now enjoy the next chapter of life.
Birthfree I love that writing idea - I may have to do the same!
Can't wait to see more babies arrive! ����

I bought a new journal to do just that. I plan on writing highlights of each of their pregnancies, births, and unique things about them as they have grown. That way when they get older, they can read their section, or I can read it later as they get older.

It’s a strange time, both happy and sad for many different reasons. I agree, it’s totally noteworthy.

Congrats Roe and Wantanother! And all the other babies born. It has been a while since I have been able to post. Thank you to everyone that has asked about me.

I am still itching, but it has not gotten worse and my blood levels were in the normal range. I have been spilling protein in my urine for the past few weeks and have just had bloods drawn to check everything today. I have had a headache for a week and am seeing spots, but my BP is just fine. Not sure what the next steps will be, but I am starting to feel unwell. I will be doing what I can on my end to start things up and pray that all stays healthy for our baby.

Our mw told us at our 32w appointment that baby was a boy. We were team green, so this was upsetting to say the least. Then at our appointment last Friday, we were told that the mw made a mistake telling us that because nothing in our chart indicates gender. Say WHAT??? I am not sure if this is actually true or if they are just trying to cover their butts, but it has been quite the emotional roller coaster.

So now, I just want this baby OUT! End it all finally. I am assuming it really is a boy and just going with that, but what a cluster it has all been. Now to know my body is not doing well, I am just done. Work has been super busy training the temp to replace me, so I have not been able to catch up until now.

i think how you have been treated is disgraceful. Glad the itching isn't any worse. Hope the protein in your urine doesn't lead to anything xx

afm 2 days until induction. Cant wait and terrified in equal measures.

GoodNESS, why is the end so exhausting? Like wake up 15x at night exhausting?? [emoji849][emoji17] I'm not staying awake at work and don't want to make something to eat at 2:45am.
