(44) Little Presents - Due in December 2013

[diamondlove33]

I was just thinking, ladies - how awesome is it that we all had our bfp's together [kinda] went through our first trimester together each worrying about losing our babies or this and that and the other, and NOW here we are around the corner from finding out if we're having boys or girls! Or if your Gromps... Boys AND girls. hahaa It's just great to have so many different women to turn to!

I announced on facebook with the following picture I took. I live on a lake so I chose a beach theme and tried my best to find gender neutral stuff. I'm sure you could do this in a sandbox as well but you have to get the sand wet before you write in it or it won't work.

I also like having a group of women going through this with me. I can read a book and find out all the things that can go wrong or I can chat with other women and find out all the things that are normal

Suzy Q I love that pic!!

How's everyone feeling? I'm trying my best to keep up with this thread but its huge haha!

I cannot decide whether to find out the gender or not?! How have you all made the decision??

 

[Suzy_Q]

Thanks Elleff! I find out the gender tomorrow; so excited and I'll post when I know!

 

[Skadi]

Hmm Braxton Hicks... I never had them with Keira. Actually I was having real contractions after I PPROM'd with her and couldn't feel them either. When I really went into labour that changed though.

I can't wait to find out the sex of this baby... I have to wait for my 20 week scan though. Boo.

 

[DrGomps]

So I really liked one of the doctors I saw yesterday, so I am probably going to switch. Going to check out one more practice, one that has experience with vaginal triplet deliveries.

Got to see my babies too!! They looked perfect!!


one of each baby and that babies heart rate and one with all three and another showing a hand...they looked so cute...not the best ultrasound machine, but it was still nice to see them!!

[diamondlove33]

Gromps: Well good for you CA is BEAUTFIUL right now! Good luck w/ DD though!

 

[Nikkinoonoo]

Ok just ignore me...

 

[brit3435]

Suzy q I can't wait to hear what you are having! Do you have a feeling of what it is already?

Drgomps wow your bump is really coming along! Glad the second opinions went well!

Skadi I had pprom with my last pregnancy as well although not as early as you did! Is your dr recommending weekly progesterone injections for you this pregnancy? Mine is and I'm not sure how I feel about it. Do they know what caused your water to break early?

How is everyone feeling this week? I have been feeling great almost as if I'm not pregnant at all! I thought I would be miserable in the hot weather this summer but so far I'm really enjoying it...we will see if I'm still saying that in August

 

[Skadi]

brit3435, No, I'm just going to be given steroid shots at some point. They don't know what caused me to pprom - I didn't have an infection or anything when I was admitted.

I'm actually a little concerned because I am not seeing the obstetrician until Mid August... and I'm supposed to be high risk. I don't know whats going on because I am getting less care this go around than with my daughter.

That is definitely concerning...I don't think I'm high risk my ob didn't say so anyway but he has been seeing me more frequently than he did with my previous pregnancy.

I'm Team Pink I was convinced it was a boy so I have to wrap my head around a little girl. I have to start over with picking names too I do like the name Keira...

Congrats!! How exciting! I love the name Keira, its actually on our list of girl names too

 

[Skadi]

Keira is an excellent name

Congrats! Little girls are so much fun!! Keira is cute I have a niece named kiera. I can't wait to find out what I'm having in a few days....hopefully a girl since I love my girl name and haven't found a boy name I like

 

[Suzy_Q]

Skadi - I was so thinking of you when I added the "..." I also like Ella Marie because it sounds great with my last name. So now it's between Keira Marie and Ella Marie. I'm sticking with Marie because that's my mom's middle name.

I really liked my boy name "Quinn" but it has become a girl name recently thanks to the TV show Glee... I don't know if I like that for a girls name or not. Good thing I have months to think about it!

 

[SugarBeth]

Congrats on your girl, Suzy! Share some girl dust with me, I'm rooting for a little girl!

 

[ready2Bmum]

Congrats on your girl Suzy!! Kiera is a beautiful name. In Ireland we spell it "Ciara"
