@CruiseGirl28 tomorrow is my mom's birthday too and this baby is named after her dad, who just passed this February. She's not being weird about it, but she would LOVE to have her dad's namesake arrive on her birthday. And I love and adore my mom so I want the same thing.
I will be sending you all the best birthday-baby vibes. GOOD LUCK!
DH was talking to my MIL on speaker phone and she asked if Owen was still looking so "straggly". Excuse me, you just referred to your grandson that way?
Bea has kind of a weird, outie belly button--I still think it will go down, but my mom kept insisting we needed to plan on hiring a plastic surgeon to fix it.
Dude, that's like such a small part of my adorable baby. Why does she have to fixate on that?
Really? That's crazy. Is it maybe just a minor hernia? I've heard that they can have a little one as all of the blood vessels, etc that were attached via the umbilical cord heal, then they can go away.
DH and I had ST for the first time since Valentine's weekend, and the for the second time this entire pregnancy. LO is now moving differently and I'm hoping some of these old wives' tales work!
RIP Dr. Irving Fishman - 10/1/19-7/25/10 - thank you for holding on for me. You made my wedding day complete.
It's just hormones, right? I was jealous of the pregnant moms at the BC yesterday when I went for my check up.
After 5 weeks of hospital bed rest and 5 weeks in a NICU I told DH not to even ask about more kids for about 3 years. That didn't least long! We will definitely be having more. I just an terrified of having pprom again as once it happens your chances of having it happen again increase.
Now I get it when people say the "any baby yet??" calls and texts are annoying. OMG. soooooo annoying. Especially coming from a certain someone in my family who is such an attention whore. We never really chat, I never call/text her, we never hang out... and she keeps posting on Facebook, "can't wait to meet my nephew!!"
Just an excuse to bring the attention back to her. So annoying. I can't wait to not tell her when I go into L&D
@Laura8388 the cerclage wouldn't prevent the PPROM. They wouldn't do one with me either, even with my first being so early. After this time they probably would do one if I were to get pregnant again (unlikely!).
I was on bed rest since December cause of a short cervix, he said they only usually do a preventative one after three failed pregnancies. Wow. I don't want to get pregnant again
It's scary going through it again, but they would keep a closer eye on you and might do a 'rescue' cerclage if things start to change. I was surprised they wouldn't place one after my 27 weeker. But I went so much farther this time with the extra surveillance! Plus the pessary really seemed to help, so there are options besides a cerclage!
Can I be a big AW for a sec? We got a little sneak peek from our newborn photographer. I might do a big AW thread when we get more. I can't wait to see them all!

Me, too! Which is ridiculous. Our house only 1350 sq ft and the kids' rooms are 10'x10'...If we had a third girl, I have no idea where we'd put her! Not to mention the GD was a hugely depressing imposition this time.

She looks SO long!! Isn't her daddy really tall?
Yep! He's 6'9" and I'm 5'10". She was 21.5in long when born but I think she's slightly longer now.

My problem is that we also want to foster/adopt. And I can get pregnant easily, but I struggle to stay that way. Not sure I want to deal with any more losses...
I understand @TallAsh. I do not want to go through losing again. If i had it my way we would be done. But H wants to try one more time. So i am emotionally conflicted.

GROSS. Not looking forward to that. Isn't the first one supposed to be crazy heavy and gross? I'm on my regular birth control pills now and think I will do the sugar pills at the beginning of April once Jodi leaves and see how it is
So far this is okay. I'm pretty sure it's my lady time. It isn't as bad as I thought but it could also be PP bleeding making an appearance. I'm 4 weeks PP today but this bleeding just feels different and seems different than how it was in the beginning.
I think I actually might feel more unhappy about how I look now that I'm PP then when I was 37 weeks pregnant. Get the fuck out low self esteem, ain't nobody got time for that.

*hugs* i'm sorry you feel like this. I understand though--i miss my pre-pregnancy/pregnant boobs. These pp ones are terrible. Now that my milk is gone i feel like a pancake.=[
So I'm trying to lower my supply to transition to mostly FFing with just a couple of nursing sessions a day. This means I'm spending a lot of time engorged. This is making me paranoid that I'm going to end up with a clogged duct or mastitis.
I keep getting lightning-like stabbing pains in my breasts after feeding LO. Normal?
My SIL just took a test today. And was like "i'm already showing--maybe its twins"
Ughh i have to deal with this the next nine months. I promptly told my MiL it was just bloat because her uterus is still in her hips. She didn't believe me and said maybe it is twins.

Tell her it took until 12 weeks for me to start showing with my twins.

I mean if she's showing before the pee stick is dry it's more than twins, she's probably got sextuplets in there. At least then she can get a tv show.
