If you ever have any suggestions for questions, I should post, please add them to the bottom of your post. Also, please excuse any weird things that happen in the above post. The Nest is kind of fussy sometimes. Thanks and a happy and healthy 9 months to you all!
Re: --May Mommies Check-In---
Can you add me please. I'm Abbie..from NJ..due May 19th
Thanx!
I'm so sorry to hear about your emergency. I hope that the outcome was the best that could have been managed.
Q1: Just waiting on my 10/28 u/s to get the green light to be active again.
Q2: Yes, child birth.
Q3: Our honeymoon.
Q1. My new news is that over the last week I have deff. started my baby bump. My second doctor appt. is this Friday so maybe more news after that. Oh yea, and I'm 12 weeks finally.
Q2. No classes, I did take a child birth class with DD but didn't get through all of the classes before she was born. My labor was way different then anything we learned there anyways.
Q3. Best vacation, hmmm, probably when 6 of us went to Vegas for 8 days. It was so much fun and I got engaged while I was there. Honeymoon was fun too, it was in Whistler, BC.
Hello!
I just had my first appointment (all was wonderful we saw the heartbeat), turns out we were a week off on my due date...i am a a June Mommy!
So you can remove me from the list, i am now due June 3rd.
thanks!
I asked to be added last week, I guess you'll get to it. May 10th just in case. Sorry to hear about your emergency - hope everything is OK!
Q1: Unfortunately, not really. I'm feeling much better recently though, which has only been replaced with being exhausted!
Q2: I do. Our hospital offers a series of 6 that go from your changes during pregnancy to caring for your baby at home in the first few weeks. I figure the more info I get, the better!
Q3:Probably my honeymoon. We went on a Royal Caribbean cruise. So relaxing and so fun! Just the two of us and none of my crazy family in toe - like every other cruise! And the food was A-MA-ZING!
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy? - No
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding? - Probably breast feeding. I do not think we are going to do the child birth class since I will be having a c-section.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken? - I would say the best vacation would have been my honeymoon to Mexico. The resort and the cost line were really beautiful.
1. No, but Tuesday's my first appointment!!!! Finally!
2. Yes, my hospital offers a good class about birthing that includes a certificate for a breastfeeding class.
3. Just got back from 5 days in Cancun at an all-inclusive resort. It was SO nice. The only downer was that it was adults-only, which meant that it's very alcohol-focused. I had to stop them from putting vodka in my pink lemonade a couple times, and this other time a waiter gave me sparkling wine because he didn't have sparkling cider. Oh well, we're going again in a year and THEN I'll be able to drink!
Q1: No real updates. Feeling better, and telling the parents this upcoming week. Can't wait!
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): I would like to do both the child birth and breast feeding classes. One of my friends has a BF "coach," sort of, that come to her house. I want to know more about that.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related): The week we vacationed before my wedding in Corolla, North Carolina.
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy? my breast are becoming less sore, but exhaustion has set in.
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding? haven't thought that far yet, but i am sure we will.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken? tie between our honeymoon in hawaii, and our alaskan cruise we just went on.
Please add me to the list due May 12, Becky, Arizona, 28.
Q1: Nope
Q2: Caribbean cruise with Royal Caribbean
Q1: It feels absolutely fantastic to be over 12 weeks! My bump is starting to show already as well.
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): I don't think so.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):There are a few places that I absolutely love. First is NYC. It is breathtaking in the winter. Second, I love Jamaica. The people are amazing and the philosophy of life is like a breath of fresh air!
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy? - still no
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding? - yes, not sure which or when though
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken? - I don't know. The honeymoon was pretty nice.
Q1: Nope. I have my second OB appointment on Tuesday.
Q2: I might take a breast feeding class. But otherwise no. I have already given birth once.
Q3: My favorite vacations were my honeymoon to Jamaica and my 2 week trip to England and France. I love traveling.
Q1: Went to the ER for cramping and everythng was fine. Got an u/s which was awesome!! Still cramping badly though.
Q2: Yes. I will probably take as many as I can...couldn't hurt.
Q3: I lived in Italy for 6 mos. and every day was amazing. We travelled a lot so probably that whole time is my "favorite, but my favorite place in Italy is Capri.
Ok... I got my REAL due date. Please move me up to May 2nd. Yippee for gaining a whole 8 days!
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy?
I had another Ultrasound on Friday, saw baby move all over the place, crossing legs, waving arms, and lots more. Got two more pictures, one that's "in color" where you can see the heartbeat on the pic. Cool!! I also gained 8 days when they moved my due date to May 2nd from May 10th (originally May 15th!)
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding?
Yes. I plan on taking as many as I can. I want to really understand child birth, the process or breast feeding, and I want to renew my CPR certifications.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken?
Probably a vacation that DH and I took when we were first dating. We went to Silver Lake, Michigan. Saw the dunes, stayed at a nice hotel, ate out and pizza in our room, played mini golf and rode go karts- we were young and didn't have a care in the world and it was the first time we realized that we loved each other. Fabulous!
Q1, Nope! 1st apt with my dr. is on the 31st.
Q2. I might take a BFing class since I didn't with DD and was completely unprepared for how difficult it would be!
Q3. Last May we went to Jamaica for our 5th anniversary and it was AMAZING. We were planning our next trip back on our second day! ?
Q1 Things are the same...
Q2. Yes we are going to do a breastfeeding one and another class in March/April
Q3. Mexico
Baby #2 MC June 2008
Baby #3 Born April 2009
Baby #4 due date February 2015
q1) No news yet, but I am excited I will only have to wait one more week for my first u/s and first exam appointment next Monday.
q2) There are several classes that I hope to take at the hospital we are delivering at: Childbirth education, ABCs of infant care, Infant CPR, also A class that is designed for people delivering at this hospital that includes a tour and what to expect from the beginning of labor to discharge. And maybe a breast feeding class. Hope I can get to all of them.
q3) The best vaccation ever would be our honeymoon. We went on a cruise, it was wonderful.
Q1: I went to the doc's on the 14th and heard the heartbeat for the first time!! It was pretty cool...very fast!
Q2: DH and I have been discussing this and we have yet to decide if we are going to take any classes....
Q3: Our honeymoon was by far the BEST vacation ever! We went to the Mayan Riveria in Mexico....stayed at the Excellence resort which was just amazing! We got upgraded to the best suite on the whole property! It was the best 9 days ever, and we are planning on returning for our 5 year anniversary.....already counting down the days!
1. Still pretty much the same. I'm anxiously waiting for the m/s and exhaustion to let up.
2. I want to take a breastfeeding class, and also a natural childbirth class of some kind. Still looking into my options there.
3. My husband and I waited a year to go on our honeymoon, and it was so worth it! We went to Belize and had a fantastic time. I would love to go back.
Q1: had an ultrasound on 10/10 due to spotting and baby measured 12 days smaller than where we thought I was at. Have an ultrasound on 10/28 and I'm praying the baby is growing well, and my dates were just off. The hearbeat was wonderful, so I keep telling myself everything is ok, but I'm really nervous.
Q2:I plan on signing my daughters up for the sibling class.
Q3:Maui for our honeymoon 5 1/2 years ago....ah, those carefree days seem so long ago
Q1: Not much going on - I had my 2nd appt and have decided to go ahead with the genetic testing for DS and Cystic Fibrosis which I can get done in a week or so. M/S still here when not on Zofran
Q2: I'll probably sign us up for every class they have
Q3: When I went to Ibiza, Spain for 2 weeks. It was absolutely gorgeous!
Niki, 25, Rhode Island
Q1: Had my first appointment last Monday and everything looks good.
Q2: No, since this is my second pregnancy
Q3: Our honeymoon to Hawaii
Q1. Nothing much-2nd apt. is on Friday, hoping we can hear the heartbeat w/ the Doppler! I've never been this tired in my life...
Q2. Probably Lamaze and a BF class. I would also like to renew my infant/toddler CPR certifications.
Q3. We take a trip every summer with a bunch of friends to a big Renaissance Faire in PA for a long weekend. It is always an amazing time!
Hi Can you add me to the list? Im Heather, 31, Dubuque IA
Due May 24th
Q1: My bbs just stopped hurting and my first OB appt is this wednesday
Q2 : Im thinking yes on the childbirth classes, but I got to witness my bff's birth so saw it all first hand.
Q3 Definatly my honeymoon, Boracay Philippines
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy? I had an awesome 2 weeks without symptoms and then I had really bad cramps and backache last night. I thought I was out of the woods.
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding? yes
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken? our honeymoon to Mexico
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy? I am so bloated, still having m/s, now having some insomia too.
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding? I took like 3 classes last time and it was mostly a waste of time (to be brutally honest). Most of the stuff was common sense and the BFing class freaked me out! It made it seem so complicated - I wish I'd just read a book on it.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken? Ecuador & the Galapagos - We went to the Galapagos on our first wedding anniv. figuring it would be the last time we'd go somewhere like that. The Galapagos was so amazing, beyond words. We spent time in ecuador too since we were all the way out there and it was amazing. I can't wait to go back to South America! I also got married in Mexico and that was amazing. I miss traveling abroad!
Nest Bio ~ ~ Baby Food Blog
1. No updates
2. I plan on taking a breastfeeding and childbirth class
3. Best vacation- Ireland last April- amazing!
Courtney, 28, MN
Q1- After a spotting scare last week we had another u/s and got to see the little arms moving! Everything is fine. My bbs now hurt a TON! urgh...
Q2- I'm looking into a "hypnobirthing" type class. We took a preparing for childbirth class with DD and it was a waste of time. It went over what to expect all your different options etc., I guess it would be good if you have no idea what having a baby is like. But I have 8 nieces/nephews and do tons of research! What I learned was that I need MAJOR help with how to deal with contractions and labor! OUCH!
Q3- Any vacation is good in my book!!! I haven't been on one since our honeymoon to aruba almost 3 years ago
Q1: Nothing new this week
Q2: Plan on taking a childbirth class and maybe a parenting class. We don't have any little kids in the family and none of my friends have kids, so I need the basics covered.
Q3: Our honeymoon to Zijuatenejo, Mexico was pretty awesome. If you're looking for something off the beaten path, but luxurious, that place is it!
Q1: My bloat is making me actually look pregnant!
Q2:Haven't decided on taking classes or not.
Q3:My fav vacation was my honeymoon to Catalina Island, good good, good atmosphere, and really nice people. (And enjoying newly married life, of couse!)
Can you add me please? I'm Jackie, 25, from Ohio. I'm due May 21st!
Thank you!
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy? No news
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding? Probably a Bradley class.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken? Maui
Q1: Any news or updates on your pregnancy? We saw a nice strong heartbeat at 8.5 weeks last week!
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): Do you plan to take any classes? Like child birth or breast feeding? Probably breast feeding. I have to have a c-section so there's no need for the child birth class really.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):What is the best vacation you have ever taken? Italy last November- we came back with a BFP! We also stayed in a fabulous all-inclusive in Cancun once where they just pampered us the entire time. We literally laid on the beach for 5 straight days. We meant to go before I got pg this time but didn't end up squeezing it in.
Q1: I had my first dr app! No ultrasound or heartbeat yet, but all else looks good.
Q2:(Pregnancy Related): I want to take a natural childbirth class, prenatal yoga, and breastfeeding class.
Q3:(Non-Pregnancy Related):Last year my family and DH went to a remote vacation spot in Florida and rented a big house. It was so relaxing.
