Congrats Maybebaby3, I'm sure the scan will go very well for you. Today we bought our first big item for the baby, a Boori Cradle at a bargain price second hand. If I knew how to put the picture on here, I would, but I certainly am not very tech savy when it comes to computers and getting pictures onto them from my phone. I'll ask my man and see if he can work it out for me. Let us know how your scan goes.

Just wanted to update that I'm doing well these days.
Had an ultrasound and we decided not to find out the gender of the baby. My blood work combined with the nuchal fold measurement gave me a 1/3250 chance of having a baby with a genetic issue. My OB says that is a negative result.
We also met with the intake nurse at the local hospital. She was a midwife in the UK. We live in Canada. The hospital deals very pregnancy very naturally. My nerves calmed a lot after speaking to her. We are also planning on taking prenatal classes.
I'm about 21 weeks and 1 day along now.
I write a blog and also am an artist. I've been blogging since early 2006. I wasn't going to share this but I'm so public everywhere else online with using my real name etc that I wanted to share this post with my latest illustration that features a pregnant woman…

Hi ladies,
Sorry haven't opted much lately. I hope all future mommies are doing well! I went to US last week, and we saw most of all pieces pas enough to rule out any major issues. Both radiologist and specialist think the high afp was a false positive. Baby is doin very well, growing, and no notable issues were seen. Thank God! It was a stressful time before hand, but I have been relaxing and starting to enjoy the pregnancy. Had more movement over the weekend, then it slowed. I think it was positional more than anything.
Going in for another US in a few weeks to check the bladder and kidneys and see if we can get the gender. Halmous as we call the bean (it's Arabic), wasn't cooperative last time. Also looking to prenatal massage.

Hi ladies,
Hope all is well with everybody.
I'm not yet into third tri, but will enter next week. This week is pretty stressful for me, doing exams currently and my last one is this Friday, along with my checkup at the family clinic of my hospital to get the results of my last ultrasound scan. I am also currently working, which makes for a hectic life. Starting to feel overwhelmed a little and been very teary all weekend gone. Everything seems to just get to me, especially when I am the type of person to give my shirt off my back for family if they needed it, but have them take it a step further and expect so much more from me than I am willing to give.
Little Maia is kicking away as I type this and all I want to do is sleep these days.
Two new symptoms of pregnancy, severe heartburn and severe fluid retention in my legs. They are three times the size already and I am told I am to put my feet up when I get home and do nothing at all. I work during the day and I have outgrown all my shoes. Nothing fits me any more and three weeks ago I bought size 9 boots to wear to work, which make my feet and legs look deformed when I take them off at the end of the day. I am also having great deal of trouble with pins and needles in my hands, my thumb, pointy finger and middle finger I can never feel them, but after typing on the computer all day I usually come home with all my fingers and my whole hand totally numb. I am a little afraid this could be a sign of pre-eclampsia, but the women's assessment unit at my hospital says it is too early for that. What do you ladies think, any tips on what I can do about it?
Take care all, I am off to bed.

Hi ladies,
I have bad news, I am now in hospital at 28 weeks and 4 days and have very early onset pre-eclampsia. I have been told I won't be going home till after baby is born and if I make it to 32 weeks gestation I'll b lucky. She will b. She will most likely b born c section now and I am moving my baby shower into the hospital.

maybebaby, congrats! I'm 30 weeks today as well! Very excited now. My baby shower was this past Saturday and it was the best party I've ever been to!! It's hard waiting for baby now. I'm feeling so impatient. But also so fatigued!! I hate feeling so slumpy.
Barbi, I'm so sorry to hear that! I hope that all goes best as possible for you and baby! And I hope that family will sneak you in better food!
