omg kazine! You almost have everything!

 

[kazine]

Pretty much... I just need a sling (don't want a pram!) car seat, my birthing pool, and to pay for my hypnobirthing classes. and of course little things like blankets and more clothes and stuff lol. I'm breastfeeding so hope I don't need bottles.

 

[enan88]

Sounds good! I want to bresfeed too nut I might get a breast pump + some bottle so my lovely man can try and feed baby sometimes
As well I think I'll have quite a big quantity of milk as I had alredy 3 accidents leaking a bit :S hahahaha

Can't wait to know what my baby is going to be !

 

[Jalanis22]

Im totally getting a breastpump my insurance covers it free! Plus with my LO i had a lot of milk supply that i had to stop pumping because they hurted so much from having so much milk. Hopefully this time around it isnt as bad.

I have soo much thinking to do for boy names. I was so convinced it was going to be a girl so i had a name chosen. Surprise! It wasnt a girl!

Im still in little shock! I didnt expect it. And its a little hard for clothing since right now its almost summer, stores are packed with summer clothes. I will have to wait a couple months since my baby will be born in cold days.

Missy- I'm sorry about the accident! I hope you are feeling ok. I think if it was so minor, you're probably fine, but if you have any cramping or anything, I'd call the doctor.

Yes, everything turned out fine for us, the babies were small (4lb 3oz and 3lb 12oz) but healthy, so they just needed some NICU time to grow and learn to eat. They are still a bit small, I think between the 10th and 25th percentiles, but they are right on track with all their milestones.

I'm sure your pregnancy will go smoothly. My situation was just one of those weird one-off occurrences. I had absolutely no issues throughout my pregnancy...they were checking my cervical length every two weeks from 14 weeks on, I had non-stress tests every week from 24 weeks on, and I had just had a fetal fibronectin test 4 days before my water broke (it was negative, which indicates an extremely low probability that you'll go into labor in the next 2 weeks). Everything was perfectly normal and I didn't show any signs of a problem until the day my water broke.

It started with some painless Braxton Hicks contractions...they were pretty frequent, and my doctor told me to go in for monitoring if I had more than 8 in an hour, so in I went. I felt so silly for going, and even brought some coupons for chinese food to use on the way home. However, as I walked up to the registration desk at the hospital, I felt something weird, and when I got to the monitoring room I realized I was leaking amniotic fluid. The rest is history!

My theory is that my body just thought it was time...I was already measuring 42 weeks at my 31 week checkup.

And I got this to attach to the changing table. I thought it was hilarious

 

[enan88]

how lovely ladies! I just had a disguting experience... vomit again! yay! After almost a weeks without any sickness it strikes back! Looks like baby doesn't like rocket salad, as since I had one as a side for lunch I started feeling sicky! Good news are! Spinach really worked for headaches! So thank you so much for those who recommended them! I'll be eternally grateful!

Now I really fancy a raisin and cinnamon bagle ( I'm just addicted to them! ) nom... nom...

Any food addictions here?

Wow! Crazy! So glad your babies are doing awesome! Are cervical length checks after 14 weeks the norm for multiples? My OB hasn't said word one about this (nor has she done anything with my cervix outside of my exam at 9 weeks) and I won't see her again for 4 weeks (when I'm roughly 17 weeks- and I think I'm actually seeing a nurse practitioner then, not my OB). You have me wondering. I'd call and ask a nurse at the clinic, but I've already done that once or twice with a couple other questions, and I don't want to seem like a paranoid loon! Lol

Haha! This is awesome. My cousin also has a nautical theme for her son's nursery. But then her whole house is beach themed. Her son's name is even Porter, which sounds nautical to me, and if she has a girl, Sailor is her top choice name.

Regardless, that's neither here nor there... Love the nautical nursery stuff!

Soooo cute Geralyn!

I don't think my experience was the norm. My doctor was very conservative, and based on what I heard from other twin moms here on bnb, her treatment plan was a bit over the top. Other moms I've talked to didn't have cervical length checks at all unless there was a problem, and didn't start non-stress tests until after 34 weeks.

I have a new doctor this time around, and I saw the maternal and fetal medicine (high risk) specialist as well, and they agreed that even with my history of preterm labor, I will only have one cervical length check at 20 weeks and everything else will proceed as normal. I'm honestly so glad that I won't have to go to the doctor so often this time (not to mention it ended up costing me over $5k for all those visits and tests). It was nice to see the babies every two weeks, but that was the only upside.

 

[Leinzlove]

Geralyn: Love the theme and poop deck is hilarious.

Jalanis: I also was convinced I was having the opposite gender with my second. Turned out to be just a very different girl. This time I have no idea, because I'm sure I'd be wrong. I do get the shock!

Twinklie: Love the bump!

Kazine: Good buys! So exciting!

AFM: I'm having a hard time waiting for Saturday.

 

[MummyToAmberx]
