January Jellybeans 2013!...

[La Mere]

Thank you all so much for your congratulations! I can't wait to see all of your new little ones and read your birth stories! I will update better when the laptop is up and running again.

Good luck to Nikki and Amanda! Can't wait to see your babies!

Sorry to all of you I know I an missing, but DD is making a fuss so gotta take care of her before she wakes Sam up!

We picked Amelia because of the Doctor who show in the UK. After Amelia Pond. pretty common name in the UK but not the US...then this year it seems to be getting more popular But I love her name, and her nick name is Mia and not Amy. Plus Being named after a Doctor Who companion is so much cooler then Amelia Earheart lol

They don't check your cervix at my birthing center unless you ask them to because it isn't a good indicator of when labor will start. I want to know if I've progressed, but at the same time, if I haven't, I'll be disappointed that I haven't and if I have, I'll be disappointed that I've progressed, but haven't gone into labor yet.

For some reason, when I wake up in the morning and I'm not in labor, I assume that's it for the day, it isn't going to happen.

-Sassy, I'm glad you are feeling a tin better!!!
-Sonia, they should of told you: If you insist when we want you to insist... I'm hoping that the sweep works and you get to meet baby soon soon!
-Mommy: Hope scan goes well!
-Amanda: Oh God! Poor thing your tummy must be making all types of funny noises haha. Poor you! I can't wait to hear your news later!
-Brieri: Yeah, I feel that way too... if my morning is fine, I think nothing else is going to happen.

AFM: Drs appointment later today. I've been nice enough to let them have me without knowing when things are going to happen if they don't start on their own, so I'm having a conversation today with Dr, since he is back from vacation.

Had a trimming session last night haha, hubby seemed more comfortable and did it pretty quick lol. For some reason he thought that by peeking into my vjj he would be able to see baby's head...u.u hahaha

Deedee, I'm starving!! I'm standing here with my stomach growling blow drying my hair! Haha... And putting on my water proof mascara

I shaved my legs and had a nice shower although I didn't do any trimming to my lady parts since they're going to shave me anyways! Why struggle with it when someone else is going to take care of it?! Hahaha...

Awww... I'm struggling, don't know if I should shave my legs or not! (Haha, I'm shameless, right? ) I mean, I did it last friday and it's not like I have a forest it's just so difficult with this huge tummy of mine

We've started getting the phone calls. We got 3 on my due date yesterday. Then my FIL, who lives here and knows that we get aggravated when everyone calls, called today and yesterday while he was at work and left a message saying, are you at the hospital having the baby? Um did we call you? No ... then there is no baby! These people are driving me insane. DH answered a call from his grandmother and he said we'll call you ... really. lol!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Deedee - I'm contemplating defluffing but not sure I can be bothered. Is that bad? Need to do my legs and maybe vayjj, mirror assisted!

Sassy - we've had a few now and am just saying no, I would have told you if we had and they seem to be getting the hint.

 

[ARuppe716]

Alright, ladies! We're on our way!! I probably won't post much until after all is said and done. I will post pics on Facebook, if someone could please put them on here for me? Thank you everyone for all your support and love and for letting me blow up this thread with my nervousness over the last 24 hours!!

 

[DittyByrd]

I feel like I'm one of the few who doesn't have an exact date of when LO is coming

I was convinced I would be overdue. I had my little girl 3 weeks early!!! There was never talk of inductions or sweeps or sections. Just out of the blue my water broke.

I've been getting text messages all day asking if she's here or if I've popped yet. Its so frustrating! I'm struggling to remind myself that the due date is actually a range of 2 weeks in either direction, and that's hard all by itself when I'm so ready to be done without people asking like something's wrong with me that she isn't here yet.

 

[Soniamillie01]

Wishing you the best of luck hun, cannot wait to hear about it and see pictures of your little one. Will be thinking of you xxx

[sassy_mom]

Can't wait to see your little bundle! Good luck and I hope everything goes well!

Brieri I feel the same way when I wake up. lol! Like oh no baby ok. I forget there are actually 24 hours in a day!

 

[DeedeeBeester]

So exciting Amanda!!!!!!!!! I'll be looking for updates even at the drs! Hahaha.

Haha, all I told hubby about trimming this time was: "Make sure Dr doesn't get his fingers tangled down there..." LOL Of course, last time was that plus short and even... hahahaha, so doubt I would of had that issue anyhow.

Best wishes Nikki and Aruppe (and anyone I missed)!

Congratulations La Mere! What a harrowing tale!

I have a lactation consultant coming this afternoon. I am excited. I got the baby to latch to the better of 2 nipples without a shield today!!! Breast feeding has been driving me crazy, literally. It's supposed to be natural but it was so hard for me. I feel like we're just now getting into the groove. I have so many questions about when to pump, how often, etc. It's a 2 hour appt so I am sure we'll have plenty of time to cover it all.
