Pregnant after IF

Hi Guys! Some updates :)

Just wanted to say hi to my favorite pregnant ladies!  Have not got to pop on too consistently as the past week has been an absolute whirlwind!  The little guy is awesome!  We are trying to figure each other out!  He generally seems very easy- just does not like sleeping at night so much! As one of the 9 baby books about sleep I am reading puts it- he is not the on with the sleep problem, I am!  He sleeps when he wants!  

I am exhausted, a little baby-bluesy, but it is so worth it.  Still can't believe a baby still lives here with us!

How is everyone?

    He is so cute - I seriously want to smooch his cheeks!

    Hopefully y'all will get the sleeping thing figured out soon!

    I'm good - just not able to breath since I have something lodged way up in my ribs!  Kate is completely above my belly button and it is painful!

    I'm still here, will be 36 weeks this weekend.  I lurk on the boards a lot but responding is a little tough due to my swollen sausage fingers and the carpel tunnel.  Still hanging out in the pool! :)

  • Hi Smilee - I'm so glad that you're all doing well. I'm sure that you're exhausted! I hope he decides to start sleeping a little more regularly soon and that those baby blues pass. I'm doing pretty good, getting quite the belly going on :-)

  • He is just too cute for words!

    And I hope you get the sleeping thing worked out soon...It;s one of my biggest fears is not having a baby that likes to sleep...I am sure I will be asking you and SAIF tones of questions in the next 5 weeks..

    I am doing ok. Had sort of a melt down last night. I am emotionally already all over the place not quite sure why.  I think I am just feeling a little fried from this pregancy and getting super uncomfortable...Only a few more weeks left! Yikess

  • hey smilee!  I am so glad your little man is doing so well and hope he starts sleeping a little more consistently at night for you soon.  How are you feeling hg-wise?  Has it completely gone away?

    I have had a few decent days here and there and I see the mfm on Friday for a growth u/s.  We are just hoping that our little man is still growing at the same rate.

  • I just want to pinch those cute, little cheeks of his!! He is so adorable! I hope the two of you get together on sleep schedules soon.

    I just got back from visiting my family and friends back in KS and I'm so glad to be home. My mom and BFF threw a shower for me while I was out there and we got lots of cute things, so much that I had to borrow a suitcase from my mom to get most of it home (I still left plenty for her to bring with her when she drives up here in a couple months). I can't wait for my little girl to get here to see all the great stuff she got. lol
