WP- I already had a first appt. had to feel out bunch of paperwork, they took blood , talked some and that's it. Pretty boring.
Flava: when is your next appt? Will they do a scan?
Hobber: I hope you get to that energetic stage before you hit the end of your pregnancy. I was tired at the beginning, but then I felt pretty good until recently.
Tink: Very cute belly pic. You aren't huge just a big baby boy in there.
I have a ton of things to do like plant herbs and other outdoor things and I just am too tired. I keep counting on a high energy day and they are not coming. One of the children are having their birthday party this weekend and I am not ready :( I just need to suck it up and get moving I guess.
Yeah I have next appt. and a scan no clue when. I write it up somewhere I guess I better find it lol
I had the weirdest dream.... I had the baby but it was a girl and had a deformation that made it look like a "boy part". And DH named the baby without consulting me, while I was out of it. He named her "Fiona Lou". It felt so really I just kept saying, "but I have all my cowboy things out." I woke up so confused.....thank goodness it was just a dream.
LOL WP! I love the name Fiona FWIW.
Had my 6 week post-baby appt today. How has it been 6 weeks?!?! Time goes crazy fast. Anyhow I got the all-clear to resume sexual activity, LOL, but I think DH is going to get 6 more weeks of winter :rofl: I really don't see how people get pg within weeks of giving birth. Uh-uh. Nothing is going in my baby maker anytime soon!
Anyhow ... it made me a little sad to think this is the last time I will be in this stage of my life :( Packed away my maternity clothes yesterday. Got weepy then too. *sigh*
begonia, i totally believe one day you'll have a 4th :) I just feel it :) Don't be sad, this isn't your last babe yet!!!
Strange dream but I do like the name Fiona as well. It's pretty.
I am two days from my gender scan and felt real calm this morning but after lunch, I started to feel panicky about what I'd hear. Maybe it was something I ate? :rofl: I can just see these next two days until scan being verrrrrrry loooooong
Thanks Auroara :) I just posted about my big ol box of crazy surrounding having a 4th in gender desire... I really don't know if I can take it. I have a year to figure it out though :)
What time is your scan? Mine was 10am and I was a WRECK before it that am, thank goodness it wasn't like, 5pm, or I would've made myself sick! FX for you to feel great these next few days AND to hear girl :luck:
Yep, I made mine at 10 am on purpose, so I wouldn't have to wait all day Friday to make myself go crazy! Because the crazy is now beginning!! :rofl:
All aboard the crazy train!
10AM? Good to know...I can't stalk you properly unless I know what time your scan is :bigsmile:. What time zone are you in?Quote:

THinking of you girlmom!!!!! XOXOXO
Hi girlmom, I am so very sorry to hear this, but so happy you made it to 29 weeks and I hope your baby boy stays put for a lot longer. I will be thinking of you, Rest up and take care of yourself! xxxQuote:

I was the same with DD3 i Just had absolute no one to help so i had to sing myself out of the hospital there was no other way.
Hang in there girlmom and baby Michael! Keep us posted; you've done great so far so FX he can keep hanging out inside a bit longer.
Girlmom: So sorry to hear you are progressing. I agree with 5 you have done so great getting this much farther. Every week and day counts. Good luck.
B: Wow 6 wks already. Has the baby changed much in looks? I think you would do great with 4 children. don't give up hope. Weren't you guys thinking about adoption?
My son's birthday party is tomorrow and it is suppose to rain. Poor guy, last year we had a tornado the day before his party and had no power at his party. When you live on a farm it isn't a lot of fun having your friends over when it is rainy. Wet kids + wet animals= no fun. Well, I have to make a German choc cake and get ready fot the party. Have a great weekend everyone.
i wish i could trade with you washington. i would feel fo much better if i were 31 or 32 weeks. i hope 29 weeks is good enough.
Girlmom you're getting close to your goal of 31 or 32 ... every day he's in is a win. You're doing great; think positive! You already made it farther than they thought you would so have faith in your body.
WP I know, I can't believe she's already 6 weeks! She hasn't changed a ton but is just HUGE. At 3 weeks I had to start putting her in 3-6 month clothes due to her length. DD2 was big at birth but plateaued and this girl just keeps growing like crazy. I want her to slow down and be little. Yes adoption is something we've talked about for years really, even before all the GD issues. I think DH and I are called to be part of that in some way, but I don't know that we're meant to adopt ourselves. Maybe we're to fund someone else's adoption? We're hoping for some clarity on it. It certainly isn't off the table. We're really just spending this year praying for clarity on our family. If I could pick an answer, to be totally honest, I'd pick that we would just be at peace with what we have and feel like this is it for us. But so far neither of us feel like our family is complete ... and instead of finding that exciting, I find it terrifying :( I don't like uncertainty or unknowns! I like planning and controlling :bigsmile:
Mmm, german chocolate cake .... hope the rain holds off for the party WP!
Girlmom, Thinking of you dear xxx
I am not sure that is the nub though, don't you think it is sitting too far up to be a nub?Quote:

What's going on? Its been very quiet?!
Well spent morning at hospital had leaking fluids with bit of colour to it, tested neg to waters though and all looked safe on scan x Placenta is apparently right next to the cervix though.
Oh how scary, I'm glad everything is ok thoughQuote:

TTC5: Wow what do they think it was, if it was not fluid? My ex-SIL went to the ER because she said her water had broke and was everywhere, it was her first child and ended up being that she wet her pants....lol. It was funny, but everyone was sooo happy it wasn't her water.
girlmom: Any update?
I had my normal OB appt today everything is fine and baby is growing like expected. They did have an emergency at the office while I was there....so sad. A lady pg with her first child had her water break while signing in for a reg appt, she is only 25 wks. They were preparing to life-flight her to another hospital with a better NICU. I said a little prayer while waiting, poor girl.
The birthday party went great and I am glad to be relaxing a bit. Next week I plan to start washing baby clothes. I normally procrastinate until I only have a couple weeks left and then I have such a hard time bending over and such. I have got to be more on top of it this time.
WP, you are smart to get going on the baby clothes now! I always wait too long and have the same issues. I can barely move towards the end of pregnancy! Have you decided if your fella is Gideon or Gabriel?
They didn't say, only that it wasn't ruptured membranes, cervix closed and the swab was negative for amniotic fluid. It def wasn't urine though as it had a tinge of watery blood to it?
Girlmom how are you and little bubba going, still hanging in there?? xx
im just miserable. im still pregnant but im 30 weeks now which i know is early but i feel pretty confident he will be ok if born now. he did get alot of steroids. everything on me hurts. i know some ladies go 42+ weeks but omg if i have to be another 10 weeks like this im going to cry. im leaking fluids out of my top half and my bottom half. i have stabbing pains up and down my girl parts everytime he moves. im pumped so full of medications im loopy most of the time, but if i don't take them i start contracting. im just so done.
Oh girlmom, that sounds awful. Pregnancy can be such a miserable experience! I really hope Michael can stay in a little longer, but you have done great so far! Hang in there!
30 weeks thats great girlmom xx
Girlmom: Your doing so great!!! 30 wks is awesome. I am so happy for you that he has gotten the chance to have a few more weeks to grow. You are going through way more than most women do even if they go 42 wks (been there).
Wow, it is dead around here...
TTC5: When is your next appt?
Tink: You have to keep checking in. It won't be long and we will be stalking your delivery.
Hobber: What about you? When is your next appt?
This is my big week to get all the baby clothes and things washed and put away. I am looking forward to getting the clothes off the floor and maybe even get hubby to paint within the next couple weeks. I just have to be more prepared this time. We have been fighting off an aweful stomach bug on top of all the normal busy spring things we have going on. DD3 is having a hard time getting over it.
I hope everyone is well.
