Roll-call!! Due June/July/August 2013

[Jadis]

P4P-your photos are fab, you look beautiful!

CVD-you're not the only one wishing for tank top weather, I'm in hamilton and we had snow on and off all day today! Mother nature is punking us!

Bama-I'm really sorry to hear about your mom, I can't imagine. So sorry.

AFM, I'm finally better from the worst sinus infection and bronchitis I've ever had. I won't forget the agony of that any time soon! I'm now officially in the 3rd tri and I'm seeing my midwives every 2 weeks now. Eeeeek! This is going so fast! Hope you're all well!

Bama I am so sorry to hear about your mum. I hope you are looking after yourself

P4P your photos are fabulous and don't worry too much about the comments. They are more to do with other peoples issues. My boss keeps telling me that I look ready to pop already. She only has one DD that she had at 26 weeks due to preterm labour. She said it was too scary to go through that again so I think she may be a little bit jealous of my fabulous bump and healthy pregnancy 😜

Ah I HATE comments like that. Smile and nod Lol! I actually have been so grumpy I do everything to avoid people. Poor DH. He gets it pretty bad too. With all this recent stress and bad moods I did indulge in some retail therapy eek - I bought a Coach baby bag, so pretty! It did brighten my mood hehe
This appt was 4 weeks apart, I wonder if my next will be booked 2 or 4 weeks since I'm having a csection. Guess ill find out Friday!
AWESOME pictures Praying. So cute and fun! I like the painting one good idea! I wish I had tank top weather here

Cvd hilarious about the coach diaper bag! I told hubby about 3 weeks ago that I wanted one as my birthday/push present, lol. Now I just have to find a style that I like. Yeah the midwife told me just to be careful with my weight gain. She said it is most likely due to the fact that I lost a lot of weight right before I became pregnant. Suppose they just don't want me to have a huge baby.

Funny about the tank top weather too because it was actually pretty chilly that day. Remember the whole beach fiasco? I just wore a tank top because I didn't want to try to find something else to match the boys, lol. But now in Florida it is in the 80's so I am pulling out my sleeveless clothes.

It's B-E-A-UTIFUL lol!! I kept my eye out for when it when on clearance though, definitely wasn't paying 398+tax! Let me know which one you end up choosing!
They are concerned about your weight gain?? It's so hard to watch it I find, my doc has mentioned mine a couple times too, I've gained 35lbs so far. Oh right right, I remember that issue well at least you braved the cold cause the pics look great!

[Praying4Pink]

Thanks pearl and Jadis! I don't feel like I look fab but if you ladies insist, lol. I just finished my glucose screen and boy was that a sugar rush! I came back home and drank some water and I feel much better. I am getting ready to meet the new pediatrician at noon so I'm pretty excited. Switching because they have evening and weekend hours and they come highly recommended by two friends of mine. We were beginning to not like the new doctor at our current practice so it was time anyway.

Oh yeah...cvd I would have thought you would already be doing the every 2 week thing but hey as long as you are progressing nicely then I suppose it isn't necessary. I just like to go so I can find out how big Joelle has grown and to hear her heart of course :-) I would imagine you will probably start going every 2 weeks and then every week beginning at 36 weeks?

Ah yes! I'm an hour east Toronto and we had snow too yesterday!!! My husband even got stuck in traffic cause of a car accident on his way to work yesterday! At least today is nicer. I took my snow tires off a week ago, SO NO MORE!!! Hehe. How are you feeling?? Glad to hear you're getting better!

Hi I had 4.5 years between 2 and 3 and it was a lot quicker than number 1. I think once you have hd a baby that's it - it won't ever be as bad as the first I.e crowning of head etc because in my experience once that's stretched it's never quite the same!!! Ds1 took 36 hours but didn't hurt loads until last hour then I had re occurring nightmares about the crowning o the head lol!!! Ds2 long story but 4-6 cm dilated for 4 weeks but when he was born it was in 2 hours. It hurt more because he was back to back and 10lb but lot quicker. Ds3 had much more intense pain but was relatively quick. Nothing has compared to the first. Ignore your MIL - it's the head size and shoulder size that matters the most xx good luck at your scan - let us know how you get on x

There was a 8 year difference between DS2 & DS3. Labor was not too bad. Recovery was a bit harder, hurt a lot more. dS2 was 7.6lbs and 20 1/2 in labor was 26 1/2 hours no epidural and DS3 was 9.11lbs and 22 3/4 inch. Labor was 14 1/2 hours actively, I was having contractions 7-8 min apart for 3 weeks before they finally induced me. I also had a very rough pregnancy with DS3 -Polyhydramnios, major swelling (so bad i couldn't walk cuz it felt Like my feet were gonna burst) and some hypertension...DS3 has a different father than my first two.You're body remembers what to do and I truly believe that. But just like every pregnancy is different, so is every labor & delivery. My Dr reassured me that it doesn't matter if its 20 years or 9 months between pregnancies, you're body knows and remembers. He was even worried I would have a really quick labor. Try not to stress or listen to anyone other than your OB, everyone is different

Thanks justjessica - how are you feeling these days? Hope all is well!

Thanks Hun! Trying to take life at a slower pace after running in heels and landing on the bump the other week. The baby is fine but I don't want another telling off from the midwives about my behaviour - they are scary!

Fabulous bag btw

Sounds painful - glad you are better!

LOVE IT cvd. I am bouncing between three styles. 2 are the same as yours but different colors.

Yep they are concerned but I wonder if she is measuring big. The midwife didn't say but she just mentioned my 40 pound gain and I guess because I have 11 weeks to go at a pound a week...she is concerned. She did mention that it is likely due to my massive weight loss right before getting pregnant.
