***May Blossoms Due Dates Join Here**47 Babies Born!***

My daughter will be 18 months when the baby comes home will she understand at that age its her sister/brother? My mom told me she would be into the stage of wanting to help with the baby via feeding or holding and she said she try to pick the baby up most likely.

Hi ladies read everyone post and welcome new ladies and congrats, read somewhere someone due may 18 that my due date too :)

I got nausu last night it sucked lol.
 
Duffy nausea is a bit annoying lol

I'm just chuffed that this time round i seem to be much more healthy and less ill so i'm enjoying it. I think when you've had it at it's worse anything easier is a bonus!!

It's so strange that i'm nearly 8 weeks and some ladies here are only 4/5 weeks. Time is going so fast this time round. I realised today that i would have been 32 weeks today with our first baby.

Yes i think your little one will understand she has a little borother or sister... as much as she understands she has a mum and dad (if you knwo what I mean). She will probably be very hands on, not understanding the fragilness that comes with a real life baby, but she'll love it Im sure :)
 
If she is a bit rough or a bit too helpful :haha: you could get her a dolly and then she can change the dollys nappy while you change babies nappy etc. Might be a stupid idea but might work.
 
I think the dolly idea would work well. I don't remember from that age, but I do remember being even 6 years old... and getting to 'hold' my sister... they sat me really far back on a couch and put her in my lap. After a week or so of her screaming, I lost much interest in her and I did NOT want to help with the diapers, :rofl: I remember helping her walk though.

Had a great scan ladies, picture in my journal but bean is still measuring right and I did get to see the hb again (though there were lots of 'shadows' so the images were not as clear or easy to see etc). Measuring 6w6d this time (was 6w1d last Thursday). The shadows make it harder to get as clear a measurement and a variation up to 3 days is normal according to my doctor. Not too worried.
 
Lisa, I just noticed that we are both 7 weeks along today, thats so exciting!
 
Welcome and congrats to the new members.

Zeezee, 24/7, and Lisa- Congrats on your scans!!


I hope everyone else is doing well. I didn't get my nap today and I'm pooped.
 
oooh, naptime sounds good!

I threw up at the doctor's office and might have tossed my medication again :dohh: Get ready for the sleepies at work!! LOL!

Awww, sorry to hear that :hugs:.

I see you're a blueberry now :happydance:
 
I love graduating up a size!!! Lol!! Seems to take forever though!
 
Good news on the scans 24/7 and lisa:happydance:

Nausea is the worst thing ever, I'm taking the full dose of my sickness pills and its not even close to working now, last night we had to drive 5 minutes to the mil and im barfing in an in n out (buger fast food place) cup as we drive :sick:

Duffy, There is 18m between my son and anja, it was a great gap, although he wasn't too helpful:haha: He liked to give her her toys and giver kisses, and hold her. But he could be a bit rough, they don't know their own strength:dohh:
 
Meow, It amazing how quickly time flys by when your pregnant just thing in a few more weeks your be in second trimester. Hugs sweetie :) That a great idea about the dolly they actually have some at costco with cradles and strollers and lil high chairs heehee..... hum mabe a christmas present to prepare the lil one.

New to ttc, It going to be so cute when she see him/her and because they will be so close in age I'm hoping they will be the best of friends the older they get and have each others back in life. *hearts*......

Lisa, omg I'm so jealous of you ladies getting your scan lol :) bet that was exciting for you to see the babe again!

Just think ladies in 9 whatever months we will have are bundles and look back on are words and wonder where the time went :) Plus the holidays will help fill in time gaps too at least for me three cheers to us pregnant women who cannot wait to hold are babes in are arms.

mummy3, awwww that is cute he gave kisses :)
 
new to ttc: understandable why you would want to wait. :hugs: I'm sure he will be excited.

Duffy: I'm sure she will understand a bit when your LO comes. At that age Connor was asking me for a baby. She might be a bit confused why the baby takes up so much of your time but eventually she will figure out s/he is here to stay. At that age she can held with getting diapers, wipes, pacifier, etc... you'll be busy but I'm sure you will have a lot of fun watching them grow up together.

Lisa: congrats on graduating up a size, yay!
 
So hungry right now... looked at the clock, it said 11:35am... I SWEAR 20 minutes went by, looked back and it was 11:37... I'm just THAT hungry, LOL
 
Had my first appt today!! They did an ultrasound due to my GP saying about 3 weeks ago that I might have an ectopic pregnancy... I'll post pics later but they dated me at 7w1d so pretty much right on target...baby's heartbeat was 145bpm. :) I'm thrilled!!
 
Bleugh, sickness has come back today, along with huge sore boobs, so am not a happy bunny tonight!! :( xx
 
:sick: eeeeccchhh! the sickness is getting worse! 2nd day in a row of morning vomit. I did get new prenatal vitamins yesterday. Think that has anything to do with it?
I'm going to try and take them later in the day tomorrow, don't think they're helping much if they end up in the toilet a few minutes after taking them.

I keep thinking to myself if I felt this bad not pregnant I would totally stay home from work, but since there is no telling when it will end...
Almost lost it at work yesterday and today several times. I teach 8 year olds- not really who you want to throw up in front of. Really nervous about that.

Alright, that's more than enough ranting about my sickness, I know many of you have it worse than me.

Congrats to the new may moms!!

Blueberry tomorrow! :wohoo:
