November 2013 Babies!

[Nariah01]

Thanks ladies for all the support, its also nice to know I'm not alone in feeling like this. I do feel a bit better then yesterday, I think I just had too much going on plus I was worrying about way too much, like things I can't even do anything about. I talked with DH again this morning which helped, and I took the dog out for a walk, and got some French fries(which was such a bad thing to do but they tasted soo good!). And I think latter I will take a bath, I got DH to help out a bit with some of the things that were stressing me out so hopefully it won't bog me down so much. I think now that I am in the home stretch I am starting to panic a little bit.

Its really weird being so excited about something but absolutely terrified at the same time.

Hello veryproudmum hows ur pregnancy going? X

 

[whittnie117]

Welcome cat and veryproudmum. Always plenty of room for more mammas. Hope you both are doing well.

Mama, I hope you're doing okay. I haven't seen a post for a while.

I am sorry some of you are struggling with depression right now. I don't really have advice because when I have it, it is all encompassing. I just try to escape in a book. I hope you guys feel better soon.

Cowgirl keep safe. Flooding can be scary. We get sorta flooded once a year or so, but nothing life threatening. But it does confine us to our houses sometimes.

Tomorrow is the start of our weekend l&d class. I am not looking forward to all the sitting because of my sciatica, but am excited to finally starting it.

Tonight was also the night of my first super big breakdown. I had made cinnamon rolls last night and wrapped them in aluminum foil. I went back to get one and saw that they had been taken out of the foil and put into a big ziploc bag on the counter. The frosting got all gooey and gross and I HATE bread that's been put in a baggy. It gets all soggy. Anyway...I was crushed. Just crushed. I asked the in laws if it was them or OH that did it and it was fil. I was so mad that he touched my cinnamon rolls and I couldn't yell at someone for it. So I just said " You guys can have them, I won't eat them because I don't like bread that has been in plastic bags." I was so grossed out. I walked to my room and just started balling. I came back out to see if there was anything else I wanted and overheard them arguing about me. I didn't mean to cause a problem, but my cinnamon rolls were ruined and I was crushed. I was even more hurt that I caused a problem. My emotions were all over the place. I was just balling when I got back to my room and it woke up OH. He asked what was wrong and I explained it was dumb, but told him anyway. He said, " do you want me to go get donuts?" I just shook my head yes and cried some more. I just couldn't stop. But once I got the donut in my hand I was all better and happy again. Oh my...pregnancy hormones finally got me big time. So that is my funny/embarrassing story for my first big emotional pregnancy outburst.

Oh whit, I'm sorry about your melt down. I have come to realize that my melt downs are totally ridiculous sometimes because its over something so minor in the scheme of things... But I melt down because I just actually need a good cleansing cry. It's refreshing.

Welcome new ladies!!! We love new people, new opinions, and we love to complain too! It's all part of pregnancy! You've got to bitch to someone, why not to complete strangers in the same situation!!!

Mama: where are you???! Hope you and the twins are doing okay

AFM: I didn't want to plan a thing this weekend but ended up doing so anyway. Last night I stayed the night at my parents. my dad was a away on a trip, so I got good momma time. She went to her doctor yesterday and they did an ultrasound of her abdomen (don't know why they did it because she wasn't having any problems) and incidentally, they found an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Needless to say it was an incidental finding but it freaked her out. It's probably no big deal and I'm actually pissed they did one because it was crappy portable machine in the office and now she scared. She'll have a real one done at the hospital next week.

I am going shopping for a baby shower dress but I'm not looking forward to it because no place around here has cute maternity clothes

Tomorrow I have lunch plans and need to clean my house and have prenatal class.

I guess it's not too much stuff.... Hopefully I have the energy to actually clean

 

[cat123456]

Your all so busy and no each other so well lol.. I dont no wat to say but as my mum says you wont get to know anyone if u dont speak up xx

Hey ladies, good morning. It's morning here. Dd woke me up an hour early@7 instead of her usual 8.

Welcome to the new ladies, cat and proudmomma. Of course you can join and of course you can complain all you want. It's part of the package of pregnancy lol. Hope you're doing okay.

I have noticed mama hasn't posted. I really hope she and the twins are okay.

Want - have a great time at your baby shower. When is it anyway? Oh and I hope your mom is okay and the ab an isn't going to be an issue.

Whity - hugs to you! I have had that meltdown plenty of times already. I'm glad your dh was concerned enough to go out and get you something else. And don't mind the elders getting mad over you. They don't understand. Hugs! Hopefully you've felt better now.

Cat - it does seem like we all know each other, eh? But feel free to chime in. Was it you or proudmommy that will be having 3 under 3? I can't remember. I can scroll up but am using my phone and the keyboard nesses up if I get away from the type box. But wow, and I'm nervous about having 2 under 2! Can't imagine 3.

Afm - I kinda had a meltdown yesterday too. By 6pm, I'm just exhausted. It had only been me and dd all day yesterday. OH was in the room sleeping as he worked his graveyard shift the night before. So he woke up and found milk spoiled all over the couch, of course, made by the lil misses. He yelled at me. And I yelled and apologized for being so pregnant and exhausted and next time, I'll keep watching her all day while I leave the house without cleaning or cooking or chasing after flies that had sneakily welcomed themselves in. I'm just so exhausted and he's a prick. Men! And I'm sooooo over being pregnant.

hello to the new ladies

Sorry so many of you are having a hard time I'm feeling kind of guilty that things have been going to smoothly for me

My hubby went and picked up our amazon order today, so excited! It has our nursery furniture, pack n play, swing, monitor and diaper bag. Just waiting for the travel system we ordered to come in probably next week then need to pick up a few more things from Babies r Us then I think we are pretty much ready

Hey guys, I'm okay. I received somewhat bad news from the Doc. I had my ultrasound on Wed, Baby B (girl) only gained 4oz in 3wks, so she is still small weighing 1.8lbs. My Doc came to me on Thurs and said they found 2 cysts on her brain, fluid around her heart, and it's a possiblility that she could have trisomy 13. Doc is referring me to a pediatric cardiologist at another hosp to repeat the ultrasound and focus more on the heart. I'm just waiting on that appt now. After hearing all of this, I was depressed and cried for hours. I'm feeling better today, just anxious to get this ultrasound done. Other than that, I'm still on hosp bed rest, it's been almost a month now. I hope everybody is doing great. And welcome new mommies!!

 

[luna_19]

Oh no I'm so sorry to hear that

 

[missjenn]

OMG Mama....my heart hurts for you! I'm so sorry that you received that news . I know there is nothing I can say to make this any easier...I just hope that somehow they are wrong....I just cant believe they they are just coming across this now...I always thought that's what the 20 week ultra sound was for...to find issues like that. I hope you are getting tons of support over there and I know you are anxious to get that other ultra sound...I'm sending prayers and positive vibes your way...xoxoxox

 

[The Alchemist]

Mama - oh goodness, I would cry too if I had to hear that news. I'm sure your are eager to get that u/s done. I hope after that u/s, it isn't what the dr suspects. In any case, hugs to you. Stay strong and try to think positive.

 

[mama.luv]

Thanks you guys.

MissJenn: That was my point exactly about the 20wk ultrasound. But I had mine at 18wks, then I've had 3 more growth scans after that, and nothing was ever found. The Doc said that sometimes when the baby grows, they can see more things. I think it's all b.s. I'm trying to think positive though.

Want: I think my father had the same issue as your mother. He had surgery in May to correct the issue and was released the next day. He is doing perfectly fine. So try not to worry.

 

[cat123456]

Omg mama that sounds traumatic is baby 1 ok? Wen do you expect tht appointment through?

And im not sure if it ws me or th other lady but i will hav a 3yr old, 20mnth old and baby noooo more for me im done now xx

 

[whittnie117]

I'm so sorry to hear that Mama. I hope at the appointment that they find they are wrong and that she is just fine. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts.

 

[missjenn]

Yeah, I would have so many frigin questions!

Staying positive is all you can do and pray...pray...pray...

Please keep us posted and update us when you can...

 

[wantb502]

Mama: I am so sorry that this is happening. You are a strong woman. Dont hesitate to Ask them all your questions. Sending a huge hug to you.

 

[mama.luv]

Thanks again ladies. I'm trying to remain positive. I thought this weekend was going to drag but it's flying. Did you guys watch the boxing match on tv last night? My hubby came and spent all day with me yesterday and we had our own fight party here. He bought pizza, salad and dessert for us. We found the boxing match online on a UK site, so we were able to watch it. It was a pretty good day yesterday. Today has been good as well because my mom and my aunt came to visit me. The nurse almost made me mad with her sarcasm. This nurse just came on shift almost 2hrs ago and when she came in I was smiling at her, saying my hello's while I was playing bingo on my kindle. Then she looked at me all serious and said "oh you are not sleeping huh," I'm thinking maybe because I like to sleep a lot. I told her no because I just had visitors, then she said "you not sad are you." I was thinking to myself what the heck is she talking about, she see me playing bingo and I just told her I had visitors that just left, plus I was all smiles. I think the Doc wrote in her notes for the nurses to keep an eye on me for depression or whatever. But I'm trying to think positive and if I want to be sad, well heck I have every right to be, but I sure didn't look sad today. I was so irritated with that nurse. Plus she was my nurse yesterday and saw I was all smiles hanging with my hubby, so why would she even go there. Ewwww. Other than that I'm cool, I'm about to watch the "Wizard of Oz" on my MacBook. For some reason, I want to watch that movie right now, I know I'm weird. Ok ladies enjoy your Sunday

 

[wantb502]

Mama: you have every right to not ask to have that nurse again. Nurses are people too and sometimes personalities just don't mesh well. I say fire her!
