Attachment 4338

It's just been SUCH an amazing week, and it's sinking in more and more every day that I have a daughter on the way! Everyone keeps asking if we have been shopping yet, and the answer is no we have not, but we will probably do that this weekend! At least to look! ;)
And when we do our first purchases I would love to share with all of you like you have asked.
Thank you :HH:
I just love my little cupcake! What a blessing she is!

I also wanted to add that this week I remembered how I did the red cabbage gender test and got a blaring Red Boy result at almost 10 weeks pregnant....
and here it is:

Now the ladies on this site that tried it got the opposite of their baby's gender.
Boy carriers got Girl results. So, ladies that want to do this old wive's tale test just realize that it's just for fun.. and here's your proof why.
I've only seen ONE wrong result on youtube, which is crazy to me, so when my turn came to do this test I was very nervous and thought it would turn purple or blue.

My cabbage test was pretty reddish too. All those tests are really just for fun to kill the time until our gender scan.

Butterfly - get out shopping - it's so much fun to finally shop in the girl section! I still feel a bit like an imposter when I'm in with all that pink stuff!

In and out of the hospital sounds horrible. But if you are that dehydrated are they giving you a picc line so you can give yourself iv fluids? I hope not, but whatever is best for baby! My heavy friend that I keep talking about that is expecting girl #3, has HG...and she throws up everything! All her fb statuses are about it. She has a picc and they have her do 2 bags of fluid a day and it takes like 6 hours to administer! CRAZY stuff! I feel so bad for her! Anyone that would be that sick, I am so sorry for!
Nothing wrong with having fun with a registry! I can't wait to get my gender party underway so the family will do a much needed baby shower for us! :)
Good luck with trying to find a place to live! I hope that goes over well and you find one quickly.
In the meantime, take care of yourself and your little bean! For the headaches, perhaps try magnesium if tylenol won't help. :HH:

They give me an IV every time I go to the hospital but not at home I mean I drink so much water that I'm an ocean. I sweat really bad though and vomit which is why I am so dehydrated. I was in the hospital yesterday actually..I fainted in the store (so embarrassing!) thank god someone caught me! I was shopping alone too but that store was a hotbox which is why the owner kept apologizing. Sometimes I eat too much other times I can't even think about food without feeling nauseous but I always drink water, juice, and Ginger ale and as for my headaches Tylenol always does the job or a quick nap.

I know it's all worth it in the end I'm excited finally! I want my baby so bad I wanna race thru these months. I was terrified the entire time and held on to my belly even when I passed out..I guess I felt it coming so I fell on my butt and back to prevent falling on my belly & BOY were my cheeks killing me lol. I am taking care of myself as best as I can & I do have HG ugh and they claim morning sickness clears up after the 1st trimester :rolleyes:

I'm glad you fell in way that wasn't on your stomach!
It doesn't go away for everyone unfortunately. I had it go all 9 months with all my pregnancies even with anti-nausea meds! :(
I am still sick with this one!

:HH: I really hope our sickness goes away SOON!!!!!

Okay ladies, TMI alert but I have horrible painful gas this morning and it sure isn't helping with my sickness! BLECH!

I was brave with my other pregnancies and took Gas X but... I'm terrified to take anything with this little one!

Can we take a dang thing for it during pregnancy? :sigh:
