Due In May :)

Jary- the hound? Love it! He's so mean but so nice.
And I also crave any food i see on tv. It's terrible. Whether I'm hungry or not. And mcd shakes are sooo tempting. I just have such a hard time deciding between chocolate and vanilla. What a crisis!

I am trying to hold off buying anything until we know what color to buy for We do have the crib though, my father in law bought it and it arrived today! But, we are not going to put it together any time soon. What names do you all have picked?

 

[Powell130]

For a girl: Harper (Belle) and Skylar and Mackenzi..not 100% on Belle for the middle name

For a boy: Mason, Carson, Cason, Gavin. or a Phillip Jr

Love them! I love Harper and Carson

We have Kathryn Rosann (our mother's names) and Abram John selected

 

[Powell130]

Thanx! I think Harper is my fave so far! I've always loved the name Skylar Mackenzi so we'll see

Also, I just noticed that my boobs are starting to look similar to road maps. Not too sure exactly how long they've been to blue and veiny but I know it started pretty recently because I was looking for darker nips the other day and didn't notice them

 

[Megan1986]

Mine have been SO sore the past 3 days. I am already a D so I hope they don't get TOO huge.

You made me hungry Sass827 lol

I normally am just looking through the fridge and eating what looks good, but reading about it or seeing it makes me want it too! lol Same thing happened when I was preggo with my son, I remember my father came over to watch the game with DH and all through the game, they had subway commercials and I LOVE their Meatball marinara... after about the 5th commercial, I couldn't take it anymore, I made DH go out and get me one lol

He already knows to expect the same this time around too! lol

I like the Jr idea Powell130. I thought about it when I had my son, but because he named his first son with his previous wife Michael I decided against it. DH's full first/middle name is William Michael David (Yes he has two first names like Ricky Bobby! lol) however we all him Mike as his adoptive's father name was William and we called him Bill before he passed away last July. (when he was adopted, they added William to his name)
Soooo... if I made my son a junior, I thought it might be too confusing considering all the names being mixed around... however, if his first son didn't have that name, I would have gone with the Junior.

I've also been being pressured by the in laws to name our child (should he be a boy) after DH's dad... I didn't mind at first until I learned his middle name... turns out it's William Kelly and I'm not really okay with the idea of a common girl's name being part of my possible son's name... Don't get me wrong, I LOVED my FIL and I miss him everyday, he was the one in law who I thought was sensible and very kind and giving man unlike the rest who are very greedy and self-centered but I just can't get used to the name...

I told them all I was thinking about Cole (my family loves it) but of course DH's family (all but his Aunt) have a problem with it -_- I can't win lol

It's YOUR baby. YOU & HUBS get to name him/her. My aunt has already tried to name our baby if it's a girl. Halo. Sounds like a dog name to me and I politely told her no lol

Got an appointment tomorrow with suspected high blood pressure, when I told them on the phone how I felt they said come in first thing tomorrow morning instead of next friday.

We buy clothes even though we don't know the gender, there's more outfit colours than green or yellow you know ^^ We got patterns like all different coloured stars over the outfit, could be for girl or boy Doesn't have to be a solid colour is all I am saying ^^

We still like Kaala Raine for a girl but still undecided on boy names

 

[nearlythere38]

I craved macdonalds chocolate milkshakes when pregnant with my first boy :-D

 

[Hann12]

Hi everyone! Just back from my mw appointment, was 35 mins late because the traffic was horrendous! They are sending me my scan date so more waiting to hear when that will be! Probably later than I want it! Also they are concerned because I'm low weight and my DD was low birth weight. Not sure what they want me to do but waiting to hear!

 

[Stevensmummyx]

I've started buying neutral colours, couldn't resist! Bought a set of hungry caterpillar pyjamas, a separate baby gro,vest and hat set and a 101 dalmations babygro !

Heading home from uni after spewing in the toilets, not attractive! Its not only sicky but I have bad stomach cramps! Not low down but its still horrible xx

 

[Jary]

I think when I've had the scan and know everything is ok I may be tempted to go out and buy a couple of things! Nearly caved yesterday waiting for my prescription as it was right next to the baby section but I was good and didn't!

Think my blood sugar may have been a bit low this morning. Got out of bed and started making toast when I felt really odd and shaky. Sat down for a mo then had my toast. Feel a little better now. Just gotta motivate myself to get in the shower!

 

[BDownmommie]

Funny - I still seem to have to get the OH to remind me to eat less than half of what I normally would eat, bc if I don't then I get a very sore stomach. Its sad, yesterday - even though I wasn't in the mood to cook, I made 4 burritos, 2 for a friend at work and then 2 for me. I could barely eat half of what i made

 

[Stevensmummyx]

Got my scan through and its the 26th of this month ! I'm super excited because I thought OH would miss it because he will be away for a few days at the end of oct for his army selection! I can't wait hehe!

Question, who will be getting the flu jab? X

 

[robinson380]

Had a terrifying afternoon yesterday. I started to spot bright red and my heart sank. My dr squeezed me in and had an unltrasound. Got to see the little baby and the heartbeat (165). Dr. says the bleeding was most likely from intercourse. We had sex on Sunday for the first time in 3-4 weeks. I told hubby I do not know if we can have sex until after 1st trimester just for sanity reasons!!!

Hope everyone has a great day!

 

[Powell130]

Hubs tried to seduce me last night, but I'm still scared. We did do it last week once and I would only let him go halfway in because it felt weird lol he's not a fan

Man, I'm not going to be able to get in with my doc now til next month. When I picked which Medicaid I wanted, apparently I picked the one that my doc DOESN'T take. So I have to wait til it gets switched. I'm thinking I may try to get an appointment at an OB that does take it in the mean time, because that's like 6 weeks without being to the doc and I dont like that. any ideas?

 

[Jary]

Stevensmummy; I will get it as I'm frontline health care worker

Robinson; glad everything is ok with baby! Must be scary x

Powell; lol, my OH hardly ever tried to seduce me...think he's glad I'm preggo as it means I'm not badgering him for sex xD I wanted to last night but got into bed and zzzzzzzzzzzz lol
I understand why your scared, I was a bit worried at first but it's been fine for both of us. Just go for it when your ready.

On a downside, OH may lose his job they are making redundencies in his department and because he's been there less than a year he won't get any redundancy pay. So even tho he was gonna look for a better paid job it looks like the decision is being made for him sooner than expected, but we'll see!

I would find a Dr. that accepted that plan while you wait for it to change. Good luck.
