Re: How many expecting SAHMs do we have?!?

  • I am.

    Due July 10Th

    DS #1 4years old ( Birthday in July)

    DS #2 will be two in January.

    I am good cramping but hoping morning sickness stays away as long as I can!

    I have to go in tomorrow for beta #4 last was only 63. They  "think" I might be having a ectopic pregnancy, I am just going day by day and hoping all is well!   The 21st I get to have my first ultra sound and see what is going on, It cant come soon enough!

    How are you feeling? Pretty tired and a little cranky, but overall pretty good ;) Ready to have this little boy here!
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? I've got 23 work days left until I stop working! I'm also really looking forward to getting the nursery put together.

  • @SHADY12 fingers crossed everything is well!!! I have nearly 5yrs between my kids and really love the spacing. :)

    @pinkiepop so close to a Christmas baby, that's so sweet! I was born on Halloween and have always loved it.

  • I am due April 13th. RCS so baby will come at least a week earlier. 
    I have a 5 yo and a 2yo. 
    Feeling good now that morning sickness has subsided.  for the most part I'm back to myself.  Just started having aches in my pelvis.   I havent gained enough weight yet to make me this uncomfortable so it must be hormones loosening my joints. 
    Looking forward to meeting the baby and hearing the dr say, "it's a boy/girl!"  Just want to snuggle with the baby and soak up the newborn smell:)

  • Me! Pregnant with #4. 

    Estimated due date? January 9, 2015. Repeat c-section probably will be on 1/8. 
    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? 2 years between each.
    How are you feeling? I am SO tired. Totally worn out. Not getting enough sleep. Lots of little aches and pains but nothing major. 
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? Well, this is number 4, so I am kind of looking forward to staying in the hospital, taking naps, ordering all my meals and getting iced juices on demand. How sad is that!? And of course, looking forward to meeting the new addition. Just met my adorable brand-new niece tonight and it was hard to believe that I'll be the one with a newborn again in just 2 months.

  • (Raises hand)

    Estimated due date?  May 15, 2015 (Yay palindromes!)
    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids?  I have 18-month-old twins.  #3 is due two weeks after their second birthday.  
    How are you feeling?  I've been tired and a bit unhinged, but I'm seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.  I'm getting my appetite back and appreciating my bigger boobs.
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? I have my first ultrasound next week at 13 weeks, 5 days.  I'll feel  better when I see the little one moving around and know that there's only one in there this time.  I'm also looking forward to shopping for a new car/minivan.
    I actually really LOVE car shopping and am looking forward to that myself soon! I think many posters here have minivans or cars for 3+ car seats - I bet you'll get some great advice!

    Me too! I have a friend who had a baby via c/s a few weeks ago. she has two already so she was calling her hospital her "slice-cation"  I was cracking up at this.

    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? DS will turn 3 in March , so 34 months..
    How are you feeling? Had DS at 34 weeks , preterm labor at 29 weeks. Now DD starting acting up at 29 weeks too...but got it under control with fluid and cerclage at 13 weeks..got to make it to December!
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? My church is throwing me a celebration of life shower the 15 th. I had 3 losses after DS. I thought it was sweet of the ladies:) It will be nice to get together, eat and enjoy the company:) I go to Dr 17th.

  • Hey ladies.  I'm an old bumpie returning after being gone for quite a while, so I guess this is a good one to reintroduce myself.

    Estimated due date?
    April 15, 2014

    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? DS will be 4.5 when the baby is born.

    How are you feeling? After a rough first trimester, things are finally leveling out.  My patience is running really thin right now though, so I'm trying to work on that.  I also have ADHD, and without my meds, I'm really, really struggling with maintaining my home and relationships.  My self-control is suffering, and that is not great since I'm trying to model good behavior for DS. My therapist hasn't been much help.  I have some off and on back pain, but other than one 2-week period, it hasn't been too bad unless I overdo it during the day.
     
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)?  We have our anatomy scan on the 25th, so I'm both excited and nervous.  I'm also anxiously awaiting the genetic testing results we just had done.  They should come back this week hopefully. We should find out the sex on the genetic screening, so I'm looking forward to going through all the baby stuff once we know.  We didn't find out for DS, so it's kind of exciting to do things a little differently this time.   And, not pregnancy related, but I'm really looking forward to the holidays this year!

  • Me!
    Due 2/10
    My step daughter is 8 and we have a 3 yr old and 2 year old now.
    I am so tired on the constant Braxton hicks!!!!!!! My stomach is like a rock most all day long.
    This one is a girl but I don't think we are having a shower so I'm mainly enjoying buying girly things for the first time. :)

  • Me!
    Baby boy is due January 21.
    My daughter will be 3 1/2 when he's born. She could be more excited than I am.
    I'm ready to be done. Baby is measuring almost a month ahead, so I'm huge. Killer hips, swollen legs and feet, back pain, and oh, the braxton hicks.
    I'm excited to buy cute little boy clothes and for my daughter to meet her baby brother. Plus my mom (who lives 1500 miles away) is coming the week before my due date. Yay!

  • Estimated due date? March 19th with baby #2

    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? DS will be 2 1/2

    How are you feeling? I've had severe morning sickness until about 20 weeks, and I'm still feeling exhausted most of the time.

    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? Getting her room set up. Also, we'll be moving to another state in June, so I'll just be glad to get all that work over with and get settled in our new home.
  • @gastro OMG congratulations and a very H&H 9 months!!! :D

    Samuelismomma that is so very sweet of them to throw your baby-to-be and YOU a shower :)

    @ananke your children will be about the same spacing as mine and I have to say (again!) how much I have truly LOVED it, Congrats!

    @annie10 I wish my children had been surprises, how neat to not know if it's a girl or boy until they are born.

    @sugarbug10 yea for buying girl clothes this time around :) congrats!

    @stephij1 I love having a girl first then a little boy and I, too had a blast buying little boy things - they really are so cute now!

    @sschwege you just found out yesterday, is it sinking in, yet? That is so exciting, congratulations!

    @zoey1309 good luck in your move! We moved across the country when I was 7mos pregnant with my first so I understand the desire to get moved and settled in.

    @jellybellystarr congratulations!!! I love having a June baby :)

    @sharkfarts how did I miss that you were expecting?!? congratulations :D

  • I am, though I mostly lurk on this board.

    Due 4/20

    DD will be 3 years, 2 months
    DS will be 20 months

    I feel pretty bad this pregnancy. My morning sickness was debilitating and now I just feel exhausted and hungry and grouchy all the time. My hips are already killing me too.

    I have my anatomy scan next week. Very excited to see this baby again, but I think we are going team green this time so I'm a little nervous the tech or baby will let it slip.
  • Estimated due date? Late February. I'm glad it's another winter baby! 
    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? 26 months
    How are you feeling? Pretty good, but big! I am already the same weight I was when I was 8 months along with DS. 
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? Nothing in particular, other than getting to meet our baby girl, of course! 
  • Estimated due date?

    January 26
    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids?

    DD will be 6 and Ds will be around 3 3/4 when the baby is born

    How are you feeling?

    If  I am going to be completely honest, overwhelmed.  I was diagnosed with GD about two weeks ago and it has been a hard adjustment.
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)?

    I don't really know, maybe Thanksgiving and Christmas ?  On and getting her out so I can have a frisco melt with a large fry.
  • @critter015 well, welcome to the board :) sorry to hear it's been so rough.

    @beth1212 aww, haha I felt HUGE much earlier with my second than with my first. So unfair!

    @disneygeek77 GD is awful, I'm so sorry to hear that. :( I don't even know what a Frisco melt is but I want one!

    eclaire 9.10.06  diggy 6.2.11

  • Thank you.  A frisco melt is a type of burger they serve at Steak n Shake ( a midwest fast food chain).  Two patties with American and Swiss cheese, french dressing, lettuce, tomato served on toasted sourdough.

    @disneygeek77 OMG that looks awesome ;) We've eaten at Steak 'n Shake before but I can't remember where. Possibly when we were traveling.

    How are you feeling? Exhausted, lol...I feel like that's the standard answer but that's my overall feeling these days. Like I just ran a marathon. 
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.) We had our shower this past weekend and it was wonderful. I'm looking forward to our final growth scan (I have GD and for some reason I'm paranoid I'll have a giant baby, even though everything has been measuring normal lol) and meeting our little man. :)

    Me! Mostly I have been a lurker!

    Estimated due date? January 23
    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? This is our first!! :D
    How are you feeling? Sooooo tired! I can NOT sleep through the night anymore! I just sit there awake staring at the ceiling. Other than that, lower back and pelvic pain. But I am loving feeling my baby boy move!
    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? Baby shower is tomorrow, so that will be fun!! Also looking forward to finally being able to shop!! (My mom insisted I wait until after my shower, which makes sense, just takes a lot of self control!) 
  • @marles1987 congratulations on your first baby and have a wonderful time at your shower tomorrow!! :D

    12/6

    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids?
    23 months between dd1 and dd2, and 24 months between dd2 and ds1. We lost ds1. Ds2 was born 13 months later. Dd2 and ds2 are roughly 3 years apart. There will be about 5 years between ds2 and dd3.

    How are you feeling?
    Good.

    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)?
    Hopefully a home water birth (not sure we'll have time for the water birth) and hearing her first cry.

    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids?
    This is our first. So I guess I'm not technically a SAHM yet but I will be once the baby is here and at the end of this month when my 2 weeks is up and I won't be working anymore in general.

    How are you feeling?
    Really anxious and excited. But that's pretty normal for me. (And lucky that I didn't really have much morning sickness during my first trimester!)

    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)?
    Honestly, I'm just ready for the baby to be here! Currently though, I'm looking forward to finding out if the baby is a boy or a girl.
  • @minevato congratulations on your first baby and welcome to the board! ;)

  • I'm new here so I thought this would be a good place to start!! :)

    Estimated due date? July 8th 2015

    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? DD is 12 & DS is 9. HUGE age gap!!

    How are you feeling? Pretty good besides being exhausted all day!

    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? Just having my kids seeing the baby for the first time. They are ecstatic! :)
  • Hi! I'm a newish SAHM and have been lurking for a while. Hope you don't mind me joining in :-)

    Estimated due date? 2/7/15

    If this isn't your first, what's the age gap between your kids? DS1 is 10, DD is 7, and DS2 is 5.

    How are you feeling? Overall not too bad but this has been my toughest pregnancy so far. Only a little more than 10 weeks to go!!

    Anything you are looking forward to (shower, ultrasound, babymoon, etc.)? I'm excited to be going into the upcoming holidays as a SAHM and being able to focus on the family without additional pressure from work. And of course welcoming our new addition in Feb!!
  • EDD: July 17
    First baby.
    Feeling nausea on and off. Tired and leg cramps.
    Looking forward to our 8 week ultrasound on dec 5. Also can't wait to share the news with the family.
  • Congratulations to all of you! I am not currently expecting. I had my DD this past May 20th but I will be ttc in the spring :)
