Happy it worked out Krissy. Insurance is confusing, but I LOVE ours. I hope it never changes.

Oh no Nicole! I've been in your shoes. It's hard, but I'm sure you will get through it and it will all be a thing of the past. Happy baby likes PB&J on toast. That's one of my favorites, especially when the PB is melted. MMmm.. Heaven.

Janelle - my immediate thought when I read your bunny dream was "thats cuz she's prego but still f'in like rabbits!"I cracked myself up I have to admit! And its gotta be good lovin when u lose hakf a pound eh?? Hee hee Oh and that recipe sounds good! I've never had flax seed but Im all over anything with peanut butter and honey in it! Jake says Im a peanut butteraholic lol

Krissy - I was TOTALLY going to start with brownchickenbrowncooooow but didnt know if anybody would catch on then u post that same porn theme music! U kill me! Oh and any and all ins sucks and is a pain in the naughty poopies rear!

So dr's office just called to tell me the u/s yesterday looks great and to keep my next appt on the 19th. I asked about the diff in what the tech said I measured and what was printed on the pic. She wasnt sure but said it might be an avg of crown to rump measurement and yolk sack measurement but she had down that I was 10w0d. By lmp I was 10w1d. I ovulated aug 15 tho which would make me 10weeks just today. Anyway, its just a day diff so at this point will leave my ticker be til I see high risk dr on the 23rd. I will be 12 weeks then, can they still figure due date by measurement at that point?

Yeah, seems to be the ony thing I can eat in the mornings. Unfortunately, my daughter loves it so she has already eaten 1 of my 3 pieces. She loves PB!

Misty, Yes. I know you over there borderline worrying. I can feel it coming through the computer. Your dates look great and they might even change every time you go in and see your doctor, but all that matters is baby is growing and healthy. Now, do you have another ultrasound in 9 days? Or next months 19th? You're going to be in your 2nd trimester so soon!!!! I'm so jealous!

AFM- I wish we were bedding like rabbits, but I'm still too scared and I think Dan is as well. You know it once we're in the second trimester though!

I will go find that recipe. (and you can't even taste the flaxseed)

 

[janelleybean]

Nicole.. Mmmm, me too! I'm surprised I can eat it, with my last pregnancy it gave me the worse heartburn! I was so sad I had to give it up. I'm a total snob for Peanut butter!

 

[Krissy485]

Misty my dr said that is the best measurement to go by. bc they are big enough at that point to do it more accurately and the majority of babies are the same...after that point the growth rate can be pretty different like for people like me who have big babies.

 

[Krissy485]

Nicole- i love PBJ with my daughter! she is the one i had ms with yuck!

Misty oh how you make me laugh

 

[Krissy485]

Oh and no fair misty you get a baby appt on the 19th i get to get my teeth cleaned....why is one of you always have a baby appt when i got a bad one lol?

 

[janelleybean]

1 cup oatmeal
1/2 cup peanut butter (or other nut butter)
1/3 cup honey
1 cup coconut flakes
1/2 cup ground flaxseed
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla

Mix everything above in a medium bowl until thoroughly incorporated. Let chill in the refrigerator for half an hour. Once chilled, roll into balls and enjoy!
Store in an airtight container and keep refrigerated for up to 1 week.

I have a cookie scooper-melon baller looking thing that I use to scoop the balls out. It can be pretty messy if you're just rolling with your hands. If you want, just leave it in the bowl and have at it with a spoon when you're needing a pick me up.

 

[Krissy485]

Janelle omg looks amazing!!!!!

ok ladies be back in a while! love ya

 

[armymama2012]

So my goal today is to pack 3 boxes, do dishes, and wash DH's military uniforms all before 10 p.m. Can I get it done? Probably. Do I feel motivated? Not at all. I think it's time for a hot bath in 25 minutes since Baby J just went down for a nap.

Here are some early days pictures of my son and daughter:

 

[BayBeeEm]

Guess who can followed directions!

Guess who can followed directions!

Yay! You are just 6 days ahead of me!

Misty-May babies are awesome!

Btw, the first two pics are of my son and the second 2 are of my daughter. Got to go bring the puppy in for his nap now.

 

[armymama2012]

Here are the timelines for those pictures:

Pic 1: My son was a week old.
Pic 2: My son was only 4 hours old!

Pic 3: My daughter was 2 months & 1 week old.
Pic 4: My daughter was 2 months & 13 days old.

I have to resize some of the newborn pics of my daughter so you can see them. My mom took most of them so they are too big for here before I resize them.

Haha at least its just a cleaning krissy and not pulling! Glad I make u laugh, u do same for me! Good to know about the measurements at 12 weeks.

Janelle - I wasnt worrying I swear! I just hadnt been given a due date from dr's office yet so was curious about it. I think they said my appt on the 19th is blood work (for what Im not sure) and to go over the do's and dont's of pregnancy. My appt on the 23rd is with the high risk dr where I think he will start the pre screening stuff also with ultrasound.

 

[janelleybean]

Nicole, your kids are darling! Best of luck with all your chores. I hope you get them done. If you could find my motivation while you're looking for yours that would be great, I can't seem to find mine either. *wink

Baybee, yea!! You're a Sweet pea!! I LOVE IT!! So happy for you!

My baby is due in May as well. May 24th GEMINI!

 

[MnJ]

Yaaaaaay Baybee!! Ur a sweet pea! Im so glad u have a ticker, love being able to follow how far u are. Good job following directions, prego brain obv hasnt settled in yet lol

 

[libbyam2003]

Looks like I am right in the middle of you two!

 

[armymama2012]

I will make sure to keep an eye out for your motivation when I'm searching for mine. Does your blink or shine or anything that would grab my attention? Mine is glow-in-the-dark green.

Ok, off to a hot bath and getting cleaned up to get chores done while baby sleeps.
