[cckarting]

i would say by 16 weeks i would feel little movements randomly, by 18 weeks i felt him a lot more! I wanted to know with all the kids lol!

 

[try4kid3]

hi cc just wondered how you are getting on ? i saw midwife yesterday for first time and she adjusted my dates to 16 weeks tomorrow . . cant believe time is going so quickly ! hope all is well and everything goes ok for you x

 

[cckarting]

things are going great! The section yesterday went awesome. I'm feeling really good and have been told me and baby get to go home tomorrow! So there really isn't much of a birth story haha got to the hospital at 5 yesterday morning. Got my iv put in and my bloods drawn. Went down to or at 630, was prepped and ready to go by 655! Dr came in and got started. he was born at 7:27 am on 4-4-13 weighing in at 6lbs 3oz 19 1/2 inches. He ended up being breech, which we thought he was. We named him Benton Vance and the boys are so in love with him already! He's perfect!

[TTCinBC]

[cckarting]

So nice to hear from you girls! I can't believe dean is already 9months and crawling! Time goes by so fast Benton is doing great and so hard to think he's already a month old He's growing so fast and is so perfect! Try i can't wait to hear what you're having, and you better update on here when you find out I wish we got a year off from work, i go back in july to my one job and i'm already dreading it! I think i'll start back at my other next week or the week after, i get to take him with me to work and it's only a couple hrs a day so it's not to bad there. I'm adding a pic of one of his newborn pictures they turned out SOO cute

[try4kid3]

oh cc he is so cute what a lovely picture . i will defo update on here when we know i am very excited to find out but nervous about the scan as i cant help worrying . i have begun to feel a few flutters but not any real kicks . . am hoping this is ok . glad to hear you doing well cc . . such a shame we have to go back to work i wish i could give up lol x

 

[cckarting]

Oh how i wish i could just quit my job and stay home with my babies! it's so not fair how we have to work... At least i only work part time right now and will only be away form him one day a week so i hope i can manage lol. I can't wait to hear what you're having! I'm sure your scan will go great, and glad you're starting to feel your little one moving about in there, i kinda miss the kicking and moving about lol.

 

[TTCinBC]

Oh he's so cute CC! I love that he's in a helmet! Is that something you guys like doing(motorcycles?) Honestly, I had what they call Phantom kicks for quite a while after I had Dean. I even still get it once in a while, it's really weird! I never had it with Tianna.

I can't wait for your scan Trying! I'm sure everything is just fine, but I think it's normal to worry like that! That's why I had my doppler and i used it almost every day until I could feel him kick on a regular basis. I miss feeling him kick!

Things are good here. It's been super hot, so just trying to keep the kids as cool as I can. Might do a beach day tomorrow. We'll see. Dean is a master crawler now and is into EVERYTHING and has figured out that he can follow me. He will now follow me when he is tired/cranky and grab my legs to try and get me to pick him up He is currently trying to stand up so obviously walking is high on his list of things to do at the moment lol

 

[cckarting]

it's my dh's racing helmet, he races race cars. He's been racing since he was a kid and the night we conceived benton it was his first b mod win, so we thought it was fitting! I can't believe he's wanting to walk already they get big so fast it's sad! Can't wait to hear how your scan went try!

 

[try4kid3]

hi ladies scan went well and . . . . i am joining you both in having a boy ! everyone very excited . baby didnt move much but nurse didnt say anything about that . placenta is at the front which is why she said i may not feel movement . hope you ladies are ok x

 

[cckarting]

YAAA! congrats, glad to hear things went well. So excited to hear your having a boy with us. it's kinda funny that were all having boys

 

[try4kid3]

hi ladies i have caught yet another cold so am staying in bed . was wondering if anyone had experience of a anterior placenta (where it is at the front ) its so weird not feeling the kicks very much and i dont want to be worrying about it all the time ! how are you ladies going ? have a lovely weekend whatever you are doing x

 

[cckarting]

oh no, sorry you're feeling down, hope you get to feeling better. Sorry can't help with the anterior placenta. So are you not feeling the baby move at all?? Have you thought of a name yet? We had a busy weekend of races and took the kids to the childrens museum for mothers day, was a really good weekend! Ben slept great for me last night so that was awesome and much needed! Besides the cold how are you feeling?Did you have a good mothers day?

 

[try4kid3]

hi ladies just wondered if anyone still looking at this thread . we got our date for section september 16th . . seems like this has come round so quick . hope all you ok x

 

[TTCinBC]

Hi!! I'm actually not on as much anymore and don't seem to be posting much either. I go back to work on the 27th this month and Dean will be a year old on the 3rd! Time has flown by so fast.

How are you both doing?

That is so exciting that you have your date try! Are you guys all ready?
