2014 January Rainbows

Markswife glad your apt went well

My drs are still devating if I have to do that test bc am already a diabetic they are already talking about putting me on insulin so who knows when do we start every two week apts?

I'm getting so excited to meet our los I have begun to feel my son tons more than before such a lovely feeling

 

[xxemmyxx]

What happens in that 28 week glucose test, I'm having that too, I know they have to take my blood I just hope they have started training for my bloods already cus no one can ever get it out! So I'm nervous about that!

At my anomaly scan they looked closely at the face and I saw his cute little nostrils and his lips, he was opening them like a goldfish! It's so unbelievable, he actually has a face, he is a real mini human!

V day is fast approaching!

 

[Lucy529]

Emmy it's amazing how fast they grow we tried the 4D at my 20 week apt but the tech said since we had to go back we could do it this time bc he would look a lot better so excited to see his little face I am so looking forward to V-Day it will be an other milestone reached.

Ooh gotta share some news my sis just found out she's preggo LOL so now it's my older brother, me and my sister funny thing our los will be born in that order too she's keeping it quiet for now (but i have to share LOL) bc she doesn't know how far along she is and she's not in the best of situations but so excited

Congrats to your sister! So many babies in your family!

 

[Lucy529]

Emmy I was shocked too I knew my brother and SIL had been trying my sister has wanted a baby but has a 7 yr old but he's been wanting sibling and me well its been a roller coaster but its so exciting that we three are having babies a few months apart

My hubby jokes that we three been busy this year LOL

We lost our mom when we were young and grew up apart now that we're adults we've gotten closer we 're our own little family so makes it extra special

Lucy- how cool that all three of y'all are having babies! Violet won't be having any cousins for a while. My brother has no plans of babies any time soon..and my sister is only 16.. So she better not be having any!! Lol I'm glad you are feeling Ivan more!

Emmy- glad your foot is bandaged up. I ended up very very sick the last two days and also took sick days...I hate doing it!!!

Lyndzo- lovely US pics!! So cute! I can't believe you actually caught her sucking her thumb!!! Can't wait for my next US!

Marks wife- glad your appointment went well and fingers crossed your placenta moves in the proper direction!!!

 

[Megan252]

Lucy that's so exciting!! Congrats to your sister

Emmy that's so cute about your ultrasound. I'm nervous about my next one but looking forward to seeing my little man again

My glucose screen is on the 20th...blah, I hate drinking that gross sweet stuff! Emmy if its the same as the one we do here in Canada you just drink a cup of the sweetest drink you've ever had and then they take your blood an hour later. Last time I had it I thought for sure I was going to fail because it felt like my inside were vibrating from the sugar high, haha...but all was fine!

 

[Lucy529]

Thanks ladies I was in shock when she told me LOL but excited wonder if she'll get the girl my brother and I have the boys it would be nice if she did but pretty cool if its a boy too

I need to ask my dr if I'm getting the glucose test I don't think so from the comments they've made but well see I guess two weeks to go for my u/s

 

[Lyndzo]

I'm anxiously awaiting V-Day, I think I will start to relax a bit more.

On a more positive note, our nursery is almost finished. We need curtains (my mom is making them) and red cushions for our glider. I'm really happy with how it's turned out

 

[Lucy529]

Lyndzo that is adorable I love it

Sheesh I feel so behind we don't have anything set up yet or bought besides the swing/bouncer combo and a stroller/ carseat but am not sure am using that one I might use my boses she's giving me hers
We're not getting the crib til October and wall decals or anything else

 

[Megan252]

Looks great Lyndzo! I'm getting anxious for v-day too.

Lucy I'm with you, we haven't done anything....next month maybe!

 

[Lucy529]

Megan LOL I keep telling my hubby we're doing this tom or this weekend still nothing I'm working all week but I really really need to do something soon

 

[markswife10]

Lyndzo looks gorgeous!

Megan, V-day is coming up for us!!! 1 week 1 day! Lyndzo, not long for you either So crazy we are all coming up on that!

 

[JohnsonGirl]

Lyndzo- wow looks beautiful

We've not really done anything either though we have bought a pram and car seat so I suppose that's something!

Still a papaya though the bump online says grapefruit??!!

 

[JohnsonGirl]

Forgot to ask- uk girls, do we get another scan? I've heard people talking about a 28 week scan- is this just the US?

 

[markswife10]

I only get a 28 week scan because of the placenta previa. If I didn't have the placenta previa I likely wouldn't get another scan. And I'm US.

 

[Young414]

Rachel- I'm U.S. too and we don't normally get a 28 week scan. I am paying for a 26 week 3d ultrasound, but that's coming out of my pocket..

Lyndzo- Gorgeous room!! I've done... next to nothing...lol I still have time..right?? lol

 

[Lucy529]

Rachel from what I've heard most only get two unless your high risk, since I am I get an u/s at each apt to make sure he doesn't grow to big but that bc the specialist ordered that which I'm sure I'll be paying some out of pocket

We got time Young

 

[xxemmyxx]

Lyndzo cute nursery!!

I havnt started either ladies! Soooooo much to do!

 

[xxemmyxx]

So I finally got organised and bought our nursery furniture! It's mamas and papas but I ordered it from argos cus they had a 30% sale plus if I bought a mattress for the cot then U get an extra £50 off, so I got it all for £450
