Chupie: I love, love, love that pic of Carina!!!!

WI: Sorry about your BP scare! I hope it stays down now!

KU: How on earth is it even possible that you will have your little girl in a week??? I can't wait to see her picture! She's going to be the cutest little thing!!

JessicaJeanne: OMG!! That's so fantastic! Congrats!!!

Dman: Congrats on Team Blue!

Babybear: I'm glad it's going well so far!! Still sending good thoughts your way!

Salt, Sheena, Squish: Hi March mommies!! you all!

Not much new here. Just working on our house. We're crazy and we are buying a new house without selling our house first! Our a/s is scheduled for Nov. 5th and it can't come fast enough so they can confirm that she's still a girl!!! Oh, and we picked a first name -- Molly. She doesn't have a middle name yet, but it's been fun to actually call her by her name. I just hope she stays a girl so I don't have to get re-used to what to call her! Big Smile

Always lurking and rooting for BFPs!!!

Hey girls!

8 weeks 5 days today. Nausea has set-in. I ended up not being able to get fluids or food down for over 48 hours so we went to the ER last night for some IV fluids. They gave me two bags & a script for phenergan. It seems to have worked (knock on wood) but I still have eaten anything since Sunday afternoon I'm hoping things will be under control now that I have some meds.

I go for my first appointment next Monday & I can't wait to see our baby!

Everyone looks great!

catahoulatte · October 2011

Hey all! quick update, since I've been a bit busy with this adorable child of mine.

Gabe is 11 weeks old today, and I go back to work this coming Monday. Booooooooooo. He is smiling and cooing and basically the cutest, funniest thing ever. He's not sleeping through the night or any of that fancy stuff, but I'm not expecting it anytime soon.

Everyone seems so much farther along than I remember! Carina is gorgeous, Mchupie, and congrats on going for #2, StickAround! Hoping for the best with your tests and possible surgery.

Here's my handsome guy at 2 months after his bath:

All the babies in this thread are sooo adorable!

Here I am 1 day before my due date. I had 1 contraction that lasted last Thur. for 6 minutes. Other than that I was at 2 cm, 50% effaced, -2 last Wed.

I'm still working (virtually) with my swollen ankles and legs up on the couch.

If I make it to my Thur. OB appt. we'll be talking about inducing only if I want to.

McHupie-Carina really is the cutest! I love to see all the pictures you share!

Dman and Sheena- Congrats on your little boys!

Squish, Salt, and Psych- As always lots of , you ladies are looking great!

JJ and BabyBear- It's great to have you back on the check ins! Congrats!

As for me, I hit half way last Friday (see picture below) and was completely shocked to find out we are Team Pink! We did a fun reveal where we had the tech put the sex in an envelope, which we took to a local department store. We picked out a blue outfit and a pink, gave the associate the envelope and some money. We asked her to wrap the appropriate outfit, which we waited to open until DH's parents got here at 6 (4 hours after our appointment!!!)

You are the cutest thing ever!!!

That's fun news about the house -- when you find "your" house, you just got to grab it! Molly is such a precious name. I hope the a/s goes well and that she's still a girl. )

Love him! So cute

BonitaKaz · October 2011

Love love love the baby bumps this week

meaganbrand · October 2011

Not too much to share here. I'm 22 weeks now and am much more relaxed than I've been this entire pregnancy so far. Apparently my belly has rounded out and gotten big enough to "look pregnant" because I get questions and comments every day about how far along I am, boy/girl, etc. versus the "are you or aren't you" so that's been nice. Delilah moves around A LOT all the time and I LOVE the reassurance that she's okay in there!! My next appointment is next week and I will finally get all the details back from the A/S. I'm assuming all is okay since I haven't heard anything and its been 2 weeks already. Here's yesterday's picture.

almostapearl · October 2011

Love all the bumps, everyone looks so cute!Salt: I can't believe you're half-baked!sheena: congrats on the boy!babybear: I'm glad that things continue to go well for you, FX for a sticky take home baby for you!AFM: so far just bloat, on/off sore boobies and the m/s has really started to hit. My first U/S isn't until the 28th and I'll be a little over 7w so I should be able to hear/see the heartbeat by then. As much as I hate m/s, it's reassuring me that things are going okay lol (since I had bleeding before).

trebmal · October 2011

kujayhawkgirl:
Well it's been somewhat of an interesting past 3 weeks. About 2.5 weeks ago, a day before 37 weeks, I went into early labor and was having contractions every 3-5 minutes. They monitored me in L&D and I didn't make any progress for 2 hours (stayed at 1cm and 50-60% effaced), so they sent me home. Policy is that between 36 and 38 weeks the hospital does not stop your body from going into labor, but they won't help it either. I continued having contractions through Friday afternoon, never go any sleep since I woke up Thursday morning at 6am, although the contractions had "tamed" to about every 8-10 minutes. Went back to L&D Friday afternoon to be monitored and checked -- still at 1cm and about 50% effaced -- got sent home again. Contractions finally stopped on their own Friday night about 11pm -- 40 hours after they began. That was NOT fun ... Since then, I've had three regularly scheduled OB appointments and I still am at 1cm and 60% effaced. So at our appointment yesterday, our OB expressed his concern that my body may need a "jump start" into labor and we scheduled an induction to start next Tuesday night and continue into Wednesday. I'm still hoping and praying that baby girl comes on her own sometime in the next week ... We are excited though, because we know for sure that in a week or less we'll be able to hold our little girl in our arms! )

WOW, what a long journey! Can't wait to hear all about your new Baby Jay!
ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!!!

My good friend took this of Carina a couple weeks ago. I can't believe she is almost 10 months old!

Oh my goodness what a fantastic picture, Chup! I can't believe she's almost 10 months already either! She just could not be any cuter.

Monster: You look great!

WI-Mommy: You look great too! I hope your BP stays down and hooray for getting to see Noah again on Friday.

kujay: I still remember your BFP and I can't believe you are going to have your baby girl soon! Congrats!

I am HALF-BAKED!!!

I can't believe it. Time feels like it's going really fast now. For the past week I've been busy purchasing stuff for B's nursery and I am loving how it's all going to come together. She is getting much stronger in there...I feel her kicking and squirming around a lot during the day now. It has been my favorite part of the pregnancy so far.

As always, rooting for everyone's BFPs!!

GRRR, pics are blocked at my work, but I am sure you look lovely Salt. It is SO hard to believe you're half baked already. How cool is it that you can feel that LO? I just started really feeling it last week and LOVE each and every single time I feel it.
Congrats to you again!!!

Dman85:
I had my A/S last Friday and found out we are having a BOY! Charles Robert can't get here fast enough. We are thrilled!

YAY. Welcome to Team Blue. Adorable name, too.

trebmal · October 2011

SheenaNash1:

My big update for the week is that we found out we are TEAM BLUE! There was no mistaking his boy parts on the ultrasound lol. We are naming him Dean Evan Hudson H. Dean is my dad's and brother's middle name, Evan is DHs middle name and Hudson is FILs middle name. Everything looked great on the ultrasound and Dean looks healthy and happy in there. I'm feeling some flutters every now and then, but nothing major.

Can't wait to see more babies and bumps!

YAY Sheena. Team Blue. Team Teachers with Boys!!! LOOVE the name Dean too. It's my dad's mn, too so if we go with Parker, it will be Parker Dean. If we go with Tate he will be Tate Wesley. So glad he's doing well and congrats again mama!!!

MillerTime13:

I only see a few names I recognize here, but I'll drop in anyway since I have been MIA for awhile!

Amelia is 8 weeks old today. We are still fighting the colic/reflux battle but she is doing better. I started back to work last Wednesday and it is challenging! I miss my little munchkin but I am working four 10-hour days so I can have Fridays off with her. She is starting to smile a lot when she isn't being a grump, and typically gets up once a night to eat.

Again, SOOO bummed I can't see pics, but I remember you MT! Congrats on Amelia, gorgeous name!!! Hope she feels ALL better soon.

trebmal · October 2011

Squishy622:

Hi all! Not much new here, just wanted to say hey to everyone and throw in a gratuitous bump pic. Anatomy scan is next week, so excited to see Little Squish and confirm that she's still a girl!

Always rooting for TTGP and lurking here for BFPs

YAY Squish. So happy for you. Can't wait for the update next week.

And have to agree w/ the TTGP lurking for BFPs, or heck, names I even recognize...lol.

Babybear70 · October 2011

Thanks girls for all the well wishes! I will for sure keep you all updated on how things are going. YAY!!! And to all the rest of you TTGP'ers, Good luck and I hope to see you over on the tri boards soon! Love to you all!!

Not much new here. Just working on our house. We're crazy and we are buying a new house without selling our house first! Our a/s is scheduled for Nov. 5th and it can't come fast enough so they can confirm that she's still a girl!!! Oh, and we picked a first name -- Molly. She doesn't have a middle name yet, but it's been fun to actually call her by her name. I just hope she stays a girl so I don't have to get re-used to what to call her!

Good luck with the house. LOOOVE the name Molly, SOO sweet.

As for an update. Not much is new since last week.

I am 23 w 3 d today and cannot believe Saturday will be our V Day.

We are shopping a bit here and there but nothing too major yet. I am showing a little more...finally, but tinypic doesn't work at school so no PIPs.

Also feeling little man more, too. He seems to know just when I am about to freak out because I haven't felt him and gives me a reassuring kick so I know he is doing all right!

SO happy for all the pics and progress and can't wait to see more and more BFPs.

(Also feel like a bad bumpie that I missed Shaq's BFP, or at least I forgot it! YAY for you, too, hun!!)

Sending love to MegeMoney too, haven't talked to you in ages but I think of you often!!!

peloquinJ · October 2011

Chupie-Love the new pic of your little one. Your friend did a nice job.

Jessica-I hope that the third time is a charm for you and you get a take-home baby.

BabyBear-Best of luck!

Stick Around:
Hi, kids. My little girl is doing great and so am I....... sort of........ I guess. lol. As people who "know" me know, I had a little strok in April when I was pregnant and they told me I had some weird-o one in two million Japanese brain disease that meant I couldn't push so I had to have a c-section. They confirmed it this past friday with another weird-o test and they're meeting about me tomorrow so I should hear back from the surgeon after that to likely schedule some weird-o brain bypass thingy to keep me alive and kicking! Oh yeah, I'm also TTC baby #2. tee hee.

And for your viewing pleasure...... Sunday was Grace's christening. Please, please.... admire my living doll.

Stick around - best of luck with the tests and meeting tomorrow. I am sending positive thoughts your way. Your positivity is great.

Grace is absolutely adorable! Congrats!
