TTC Blue Crew Grads

[WashingtonPromise]

Jen: If I lay down I get so tired that I need a nap, so I just stay moving. But of course I am only 16 wks and you probably are suppose to take breaks with your feet up during the day I am sure your docs will induce you if you would like, especially if he is big.

Lola: I understand how expensive IVF can be. But if get preggo with Quads like ELP says we will all chip in and throw you a cyber shower.

Tink: Yes, she did say boy, but it just seems hard to believe.

ELP: I really only wanted the surprise if it was going to be a girl, but now I just am having a hard time wrapping my head around it being a boy.

I do have u/s pics, a profile and potty shot. I just have no time right now to get it on here. I would have to take a pic of them with my camera, upload them, shrink, put on a wesite, and post.....all this without the children seeing the potty shot pic. Since I do have the pics, I kept looking at them last night while getting ready for bed. I guess I just kept telling myself it was a girl and even was trying not to daydream about a baby boy anymore, so I would stop torturing myself. In a few weeks at my 20wks u/s it will feel more real, I hope DH doesn't want to come!

Oh, GL Jen with your u/s, I will check for an update later.

Thanks, guys. I wish things would hurry along and work out for me too.

Hope all is well at your appt, Jen!

WP- super stoked for you! I think it would take a few days to settle in for me also. (:

Well ladies it's good news, ok news and kinda bad news. First the good - fluid levels are at the high end of normal but within range so not a concern. The ok - Baby's measuring about a week ahead with a fairly big head and a big belly, the big belly is a bit of a concern and they are sending me for yet another diabetes test tomorrow. The kinda bad - he's still breech so I'll need to be closely monitored for the rest of the preg. If he doesn't turn in the next couple weeks more serious conversations will take place. I'm a little bummed at the thought of a c-section but will do everything natural to flip him around

ohh good and bad yes but not horrible! I cant believe how close you are to getting your little dood! I remember when you found out!!!!!! This is so exciting.

I AM laughing so hard at cyber shower!

Wp, Well I hope it's real! I cant wai to see pics. We were told at 15 weeks ours was a boy, tech said he would bet his job on it. SAid 100% with out a doubt! I still think it;s to good to be true. I go again for on the 17th for another scan. I will almost be 20 weeks! SO hoping it;s still the same!

[WashingtonPromise]

Jen: I agree with Tink, at least it is not horrible news. Nothing is "wrong", just not what everyone wants. I will keep you in my prayers. When do they want him to flip by? Your due date? before?

Where is CA? I know she should be having a gender scan around the same time as me.

[3Pink1Blue]

Yep definitely not horrible news but not what I was hoping to hear. The u/s dr is hoping he'll flip by 37weeks. I've got a m/w appt today and I'll be able to talk to her in more detail about it all, I've got a thousand questions lol

[hope.ful]

WP, congratulations on your BOY!!! That's so exciting that we're seeing more successful blue sways. Your poor m/w probably feels terrible.

3P1B, I am so excited for you to hold that little boy! My SIL had her boy on Cmas Eve and he is just precious. So totally different from my girls in that he is really laid back and quiet!

I don't have a dr appt until Jan 23rd. Then I will be 8 weeks and that's just the initial tests, so I'll see my doctor 1-3 weeks after that. I'm not really sure if we're going to find out the gender at our 20 week ultrasound or not. I'm high risk because of a blood problem, so I'll get an US every 2ish weeks after 24 weeks so we can find out whenever we want. We really want a boy, but we are really good at making girls, so I don't really know if I want to find out before he/she comes. Once the baby is in your arms, it's really hard to be disappointed, know what I mean? I am thinking about finding out around 36 weeks or so. That way, we'll be prepared but so close to the arrival it won't matter. On the other hand, it is really fun to find out in the delivery room! Basically, if it's a boy I want to know NOW and if it's not, I don't want to know until she comes. Crazy, right?! =) I am so excited to walk this journey with you ladies! We're not telling anyone IRL until we have to or until we're past 13-15 weeks so it's extra fun to come here and chat about it!

Hope you all have a wonderful day!!

Okay, I slacked on a few of my chores, so you guys could see our beauty.
Did they come out?

[LolaInLove]

WP, that's totally a weiner!!! Thanks for slacking and posting pics on the web instead!

3P1B- check out this website: Spinning Babies Home | spinningbabies.com I used it with #2 to make sure she was in the right position for birth since I was attempting a vbac and #1 was sunny-side up and I had to have a c-section....I did not want a repeat. It totally worked!
