[kirst76]

Neat pics junebug!!! What a cutie sucking his wee thumb! My second girl was sucking her thumb at the 12 week scan, I thought she would be a thumb sucker when she was born just like my eldest but she wouldn't have a bar of it, lol!

 

[kirst76]

thanks junebug, I hope you are right! Just off to look at that bump pic now!

 

[Nat0619]

Fab pics Junebug, glad all is well

 

[Dorian]

Aww, great pics Junebug!!

 

[Maple Leaf]

Junebug that has to be the best scan pic I have seen in a long time......Aw.......

 

[Mbababy]

Good Morning Ladies! Sorry I have been AWOL the last couple of days....dealing with an audit at work = no fun

Nat, glad your scan went well and hoping your placenta doesn't cause you any problems

Junebug, congrats on your scan and very cute pics of your lil man!

Afm, I've been feeling a little better about the finding at my scan last week as I've done more research and it seems that is shouldn't be something to worry about at this point. I have an echocardiogram scheduled for next week (12/14) so doc can get a closer look at baby's heart to make sure there is nothing wrong.

I am feeling him move a TON...it is so cool...I just love the feeling

 

[Junebug_CJ]

So glad you're feeling better Mbababy!!! And you get to see pics of baby on screen soon again

Hope the audit goes well!

 

[CeeDee]

Mbababy, Welcome back. I’m an auditor so I know how that is. I am so glad you are feeling better about the scan results. Your baby will be fine.

So sad. We lost one of our bump buddies.

Mrs. Duggar

I see this has sparked quite the debate over in second tri. I think with us all being due in April and over 35 it really hits home.... So sad for her and her family.

I am off Christmas shopping today, I have my works christmas meal tonight so off to buy something to fit into! Lol I have taken a new week bump pic and will get around to uploading it at some point today......

Glad to hear everyone else is doing fine and it seems our babies are moving around a lot more which is such an amazing feeling...I am finally feeling a bit more relaxed about things, morning sickness completely gone, still able to put my socks and shoes on and shave my legs.....lol.

Anyone got any plans for he weekend?

 

[Mbababy]

Hello All! How was everyone's weekend? I have been fairly unproductive lately...but my DH and I did hit Babies R Us and bought our first baby purchase....a bunch of onesies Everything has been going fine...baby still kicking although I notice somedays he is quieter than others (I am trying not to secretly panic when he has "not-so-active" days). I've been having some round ligament pain...so have been in some mild discomfort lately. I also had to remove my wedding ring and band because I am starting to get a little bit of swelling in my fingers I am really bummed about it...

Other than that, just anxious about my appt. on Wed...hoping everything turns out ok...

 

[Junebug_CJ]

Hugs Mbababy, and yay on your first baby purchases!!!

We got rid of furniture over the weekend, in the bedroom we've been using as a family room. It will be Zoë's big girl room. Still some stuff to move out (2 bookcases and tons of board games/exercise gear) but we're planning on shopping for her furniture soon and starting to paint

Other than that, teething toddler weekend so I got a lot less done that I was hoping for Tree is up but not decorated, half my shopping done, and only 1 Christmas goodie baked. No wrapping done. Starting to panic with Christmas only 13 days away!

Good luck for your apt on Wednesday! My next one is only January 17th, seems so far away... Have you chosen a name for your little guy yet? If you've mentioned it before, sorry My memory is terrible these days!

 

[kirst76]

Cool about the shopping mbababy!
I haven't done any shopping yet....mind you I have all the clothes from my last little girl so all we'll need is some vests (I had some really cool ones that I gave to my brother when his g/f had their baby)

Sometime in the New Year we'll get ourselves organised and change the rooms around....we only have a 3 bedroom house so will move both Caoilainn and Gabi into the master bedroom and put the new baby in with them too. We will move into the smaller room.

junebug - my memory is shocking at the moment, I look at my children and honestly cant think of their names (sigh)
I'm starting to panic about Christmas too....I need to finish making the blanket for my eldest nephew and make a quick quilt for my littlest nephew.
I still haven't done my Christmas cards, etc......

My sil had her baby on Saturday night and we went to see them on Sunday....my new nephew is lovely!!
My midwife has a student midwife working with her, I'll get to meet HIM next week when she comes to visit. Yesterday morning I got a text from my sil saying he was on ward for the day and that "he's alright", lol! My midwife is quite protective of her ladies so at the birth he will not be doing any internals (thank goodness for that) and he will not actually be doing the delivering. I thought that was quite funny, because my midwife let my mil deliver my second daughter, lol!

 

[Mbababy]

No, Junebug, your memory is perfect actually....we hadn't been able to decide on a boy name until very recently (like a few days ago). We finally decided on Blake....thank goodness we both like it (as that has been a challenge to say the least!).

Good for you for getting ANYthing done with a teething toddler in the house That's a feat in itself!

Kirst, lucky you for having hand me downs! I'm finding the shopping thing a little overwhelming right now...so I'm trying to just do it in short doses.

I don't know how the both of you have enough energy to deal with pregnancy plus little ones....my hat is off to you!!

 

[Maple Leaf]

It looks like everybody is getting into the Christmas spirit.
I have been to the drs today, the first time since my anomaly scan 3 weeks ago.As I hadn't heard anything I assumed all was well......all the measurements were normal but the 4 chambers of the heart couldn't be assessed properly due to baby's position. My dr had booked me another ultrasound for this coming Wednesday....i only found out today!!! I know it's nothing to worry about, I just hope I don't get the same obnoxious male tech
again....

On a lighter note, we are taking the kids to a great wolf lodge down in the states this weekend. Unfortunately I won't be able to go on most of the flumes but I am just looking forward to a break. It is a surprise for the kids, so I can't wait to see their faces...

Mbababy - I love the name choice. I am in no way set on our current name pics...it's so overwhelming.. Lol

 

[CeeDee]

Mbababy, I am so sad about not wearing my wedding rings either. I’ve been wearing my right hand ring on my left ring finger instead and not that ring is getting too tight. I like your son’s name!

Kirst76, Congrats on your new nephew!

I’ve done tons of shopping for my little one, mostly clothes. Girl’s clothes are so cute and I they are so hard to resist buying. The one thing I haven’t done is my Christmas shopping.

Hi Ladies! I hope it's ok for me to join in, I think I finally feel ready to stop lurking and start chatting. This is our first baby and we found out about 2 weeks ago that we are having a little girl! I've been so nervous about everything going well that I've been a bit slow in getting too excited, but as we start adding baby furniture into our spare room the excitement is growing. Anyways I hope you all are feeling well!

 

[kirst76]

mbababy - i love the name choice!! Thats one of my favourite names but even if we were having a boy I could never use it as our last name starts with a B and I dont like the whole double initial thing.

Maple leaf - hope you have a fabulous weekend!

Skier - congrats and welcome!

Welcome skier....congratulations on your little girl. I suspect mine is a girl too but already having one of each I am waiting for the ultimate surprise. X

Hi Ladies,

Mbababy, glad you're able to get some clothes shopping done. There are sooo many cute things out there for baby!! I'm sure everything will be fine for your appt. My next one is Jan 4th.

Junebug, sorry about the teething toddler, never any fun, poor thing. Glad you're getting some redecorating done though. We don't have our tree up yet either

Krist, ugh on the moving around or rooms! But, it has to be done. blah. Congrats on your new nephew!

I'm sure it will all be fine Maple! Have a fun time at Wolf Lodge.

I agree CeeDee, there are some really darling clothes out there. Have fun!

Congrats and welcome to the board Skier!

I'm am doing fine here. Baby moves around a lot now And my bump is actually starting to look like a pregnant bump I have a B belly this time around, which is odd. lol.

Have a great day.
