Re: ~*~*~*~TTGP Grad Check In~*~*~*~
You all are making me feel a lot better! I really appreciate it.
BFP #1:10/31/10 DS born 6/22/11BFP #3:4/24/12 DD born 12/31/12
Its been awhile since I've checked in. I can't believe I have a 6 month old. The time is seriously flying. David is sitting up and we just started solids. Still going strong with BFing. He wakes up happy:
Hi Ladies! I haven't checked in in a while.
Elliot will be 5 months on Thursday. It's amazing how time flies. He's starting to sit up now, and he babbles all the time. He's weighing in right at 12 pounds and sitting strong in the 3rd percentile, though he's starting to chunk up. We started solids at 4 and a half months and so far he's a huge fan of carrots and bananas. He's also getting close to cutting a tooth! I can see it just under his gum and he's chewing on everything.
Mrs. Kitton - that sucks that she wasn't cooperating but YAY for a second ultrasound! And woo hoo for team pink!!!
Beagle - FX'd that baby cooperates!! Awesome that you can have an elective!!
Toni - that sucks you have to go back to work. It's not fair, I wish we had a year mat leave in the US. I hope he hardly notices his shots and he is fricken adorable!! Looks like he is doing awesome!!!
Ellis - You look amazing!!
JAB - Congrats on 3rd Tri!! That sucks about the nausea though.
He will be worth it all though, I promise!!!
LR - Soooo cute!!!
Shay - YAYYYY for 3rd Tri!!! You look adorable, and I love your hair!!
Boo for peeing and nausea though, I hope it is short lived. (unfortunately though the peeing is probably here to stay until she is born, lame) Have fun at your shower!!!
KPowers - That is great about your shower and the baby's nursery. Sorry about the scare with lack of movement - that sucks.
I remember having that happen with DS a lot but thankfully my doppler was always a nice reassurance that everything was fine. Do you have one?
GDM - Holy moly he is sooooo cute!!!
Mother Meg - Congrats on the BOY!
Kelsie - That is great news about the ultrasound and healthy heartbeat! Yay!
HEA - I'm sorry about the GD
But it sounds like your OB's are keeping a close eye on things and as you said, anything for that LO!! Will be thinking of you!!
AFM, nothing really to report here. I suck at taking bump pics but I'll get better. The drama on here has been rampant lately.

My Chart
Morning, lovelies! Here we are at 3 weeks. I am sporting a pair of pre-preg skinny jeans, buttoned! Yay. Lucy appears to finally be putting on weight, but we'll see if she really is at this week's weight check. I am hoping we don't have to supplement! Other than that, she eats, poops, pees, and sleeps. We're getting more periods of awake time and I am falling in love more and more every day!
Here's my girl:
And my two babies:

Hi girls! Its been forever since Ive checked in:) I cant believe how much everyone is progressing, time is certainly flying by! Everyone looks great, this post is full of beautiful babies and bumps!
AFM, 28 weeks today and I seriously cant believe it. Everything is going well so far, I have an appointment tomorrow to check my blood pressure since it was a little elevated last week but Im hoping nothing comes of it. I also have my GD test on Friday so fingers crossed I pass!
Fear has been replaced with excitement, I think, I just cant wait for her to get here. My shower is on the 11th, making things all too real!
We finished the nursery last week and the furniture is here, now just have to decorate.
Here I am last week before my best friends shower:
And my 12 year old sister thought it would be fun to paint my belly:
You're all in my t&p's as always and hopefully everyone is doing well and escaped Sandy with little to no damage!
Me at 20w4d. Don't mind the hurricane-related dark circles - I barely slept a wink last night and am exhausted. Nothing much to report pregnancy or baby-related.

Also, I have to do an early glucose screening test due to the PCOS. I'm really nervous about it and am really hoping I pass. Got signed up for all my childbirth/child care classes! Excited for that since I know nothing. Always rooting for the TTGP!! And hope everyone is doing well on the east coast!

Hi ladies! I miss alot of you and think about you all often.
6 weeks tomorrow, I go to my first ultrasound and appointment next Wednesday. I've lost 5lbs, but mainly because I am already on GD diet and they started me on insulin a couple of weeks ago. The insulin shots were scary to the thought, but they aren't that bad.
Can't wait to share my first U/S with you all! Still haven't told work and most of my family, but planning on after the first U/S at Thanksgiving when my cousin who I am very close to is in from South Korea.

OMG the babies and bumps are sooo cute!! Congrats to all the recent BFPs and outside baby moms!!
It's been a long time since I posted. I think I was like 13 weeks KU. But on Oct. 1st Grady made his debut at 8lbs 3 oz and 20.5 inches long. Short (4 hour) med-free labor that went really well. We're BF'ing and surviving. I don't love it, but I love that I'm able to give my son what he needs so we're continuing. I can't believe he's already 4 weeks old. I have another 6 weeks of maternity leave, and then it's bsck to the real world. Hope we get our morning routine worked out before then. Right now we sleep till 9! Here's some pics for your enjoyment.
First sponge bath at home:
And my two boys:
Think so?? I have only had girl dreams and the other day I heard "My Girl" on the radio and the flood gates were open. However my midwife thinks it's a boy and of course DH agrees with her
I'm excited to find out and share with you girls!
I think it's a boy, too!
Ok, I have nothing really exciting to share. But I thought I'd share this picture of Molly in her Halloween costume. I'm going to make it my siggy pic, so sorry for the double pic. She's a peacock (in case you can't tell).

Ok appointment went well - baby cooperated. She's still a she, yay! Her name is Eleanor, just working on middle name still. Thanks everyone.
I keep missing the check ins because my brain thinks Wednesday, so I'll just post now lol
I'm somwhere around 9-10/12 weeks along now. Since my cycles are long (wasn't charting the cycle I got ku) and the midwife couldn't feel my uterus - she's sending me in for a dating ultrasound on 11/6! So, 2 check ins from now, I'll have a photo to show!
I'm dealing with lots of vomiting, food aversions, and massive headaches. I was put on Buspar because my anxiety is not being managed very well off of my previous meds as well.
All in all, I'm still feeling very positive and lucky that our family is growing.
