So I guess this is my first Nine Month Wait...

[Kelly9]

Yes west we got our third tri box at 26+5. Sucks about the GD, whats the next step with that? You don't want to have a big baby!

mrs n that is so exciting! I remember being all giddy and nervous leading up to our gender scan. Are you finding out the gender?

Hi hope your all doing well Just put a new photo of Lucie in my journal and a little update on how we are getting on

Hope everyone is having a great start to the weekend

 

[Melsue129]

hey ladies.. I could only go back sooo far... lots of action happening.. life's been soo crazy for me with work we are in our busy season so by the time I have a few minutes its time to go home and when i get home I avoid the computer because Im on it all day... But I do think about you all everyday... I hope everyones doing great..

West sorry to hear about the diabetes.. jsut make sure you eat all of the right things - i had a friend get told she had it and she changed it by just changing her diet... I hope they just watch it and make sure you are taken care of.... Big hugs..

Mrs. N and Kelly - you gals are coming along thats for sure.... time is flying...

Wannabe - how are you??

DMN love the photo of Lucie in your journal.. !!! hope you are recovering okay....

Well Im getting bigger by the day - sooo excited to meet her... down to 4 weeks left.... yikes... I have come down with another nasty cold... Ive been sick for days yuck!! Im hoping to recouporate this weekend... On top of being sick Ive been exhausted alot of the time so I try to take naps when I can... sooo ready to meet my lil girl and get my body back to normal.... Ive reached that point already, is that bad?? we have been going to birthing classes which have been fun - my DH is actually the class clown, who would of known... he makes me laugh... soo funny... but he also gets involved to ask some good questions...

I think we decided that on delivery day we want to do this on our own with the dr and nurses... Both of our Mom's have been wanting to be in the delivery room and pushing to be at the hospital and I feel bad but I really only want my DH there so we can concentrate on breathing and laboring, ect without having to entertain anyone or have to listen to their chatter... Then I also feel like we need some time to bond with Liana after she is born because Im going to breastfeed right after she comes out... soooo is it really bad to tell them they are going to have to wait?? I feel awful but its jsut how we want it to happen.... Im sure they wont be happy about it but they will have to wait and see her a few hours when we are done with our bonding... I need to be a lil selfish after this long pregnancy, right???

Well I hope everyone is doing great.. I'll check in this weekend!! promise....

Hey girls, how's everyone?

Melsue - Wow 4 weeks huh? Your birthing plan is just that "YOURS". Don't feel bad at all for making your day the way you and OH want it. This day will only happen once so enjoy it to the fullest. I'm sure ur mom and mil will understand.

Kelly - At this point my GDM is all diet controlled. Hopefully it doesn't get worse. I'm only at 10 lbs so far and hopefully this pregnancy is like the last 2. I only gained 15 with DD and less with DS. Cute bump pic too. I wouldn't worry abt ur weight too much at all. Ur bump is tiny and ur doing great. I kno 2 u it probably feels huge but ur not lol.

Dmn - Great to hear you and Lucie are doing well.

Mrs N - good luck on ur scan.

 

[Kelly9]

Melsue I would say there is nothing wrong with that. I am allowing my mil in the room with DH and I but she had to promise to leave if I asked and to stay waist up! I don't need her seeing all that.

I can't believe you have less then a month less. Thats scary cause once you and wanna deliver I'm next aren't I with west? EEk!!!!

Well we're winding down, waiting for our ride to the porter to catch our plane home. Baby shower tomorrow and i am so excited. Still waiting on the DH to finish his chores before we leave. I told him he's not coming if they're not done!

My stomach has been bugging me today, been sore have had heartburn and a headache. Got some tums on hand they help as the heartburn isn't to bad just annoying. Baby kelly keeps moving! He has been super active, sometimes I find I am telling him to sleep and stay still!

 

[wannabeamom]

Hi ladies!!!

Melsue good to hear from you!!! I'm very well thanks getting a bit scared now 5 weeks and 2 days to go and counting!!! I don't know about you but iseem to have got huge over the last couple of weeks!!!!

Are you all ready for the baby coming? Lovely name by the way!!! I think both sets of parents will understand if you tell them to wait outside or at home till the baby has been delivered. My mum has been nagging me since the start cos she wants to be there but I told her no, i might change my mind at the time but not telling her that as don't wanna get her hopes up xxx

 

[Melsue129]

Thanks ladies.... Im sure the moms are just going to have to understand... Its time for me to be selfish thats for sure.....

Yes getting very excited about the "big" day - lol... I am really looking forward to the day of pain, because I cant wait to meet her!!! Sooo excited.... Nursery is a mess, still organizing and getting all of her clothes in the dressers... I need to put up some decals on the walls and some frames... and then we should be all set!!! Counting down the days....

DH is taking some classes on Saturday for future work projects and he was nervous leaving this morning.. telling me "you know you can call me when Im in class - if you start having contractions or if you need me - I'll leave I dont care" LOL.. I had to say honey dont worry - we will be fine... its too early... dont worry... so funny... He's worried about being an hour from home when something happens...

Wannabe your right behind me - I wondering if either of us will go early.... Hmmm...

Hey we got a few maternity photos back from our shoot with the photographer... Here they are... He did a wonderful job... Im sooo excited to see the rest of them...

I hope everyones have a great weekend!!!!

 

[wannabeamom]

Wow those pics are stunning!!!! I love love love them!!!!

Everyone seems to think I will be early, I'm not sure though?? I don't think you can tell with your first? X

 

[westbrja]

Happy Mother's Day Ladies! Even those first timers waiting 2 pop are still very deserving! Enjoy ur day girls!

Btw been having some BH's this morning. Its kinda funny to feel them. They don't hurt or anything just tightening.

 

[dmn1156]

not too much to catch up on lol

Melsue it is not selfish to want it to be just you and DH i think those first moments with your baby are precious and are best done together i missed that so much this time round as i was not allowed to hold her straight away. I think your mums will understand that. Your pictures are fantastic they look great.

Wannabe hope your doing well it is hard to tell if your going to go early or late with your first there are always a few signs before labour starts tho cant believe you dont have long left to go now

kelly hope your baby shower is great and have a great time

melsue gotta love the BH i had them early on as well but i think you get them earlier with your 3rd altho mine got painful towards the end

hope i have not missed anyone and that your all doing well and having a lovely weekend

 

[Mrs_N]

fab pics melsue!

won't be long until we have a few more babies on this thread!

20 weeks tomorrow for me

 

[Kelly9]

Hey everyone! Shower was AMAZING! I hope the second smaller one goes so well to! I posted some pics in journal but will post more when I get more. We got tons of useful items and only one double! So pretty good already got it exchanged. Also did some baby clothes shopping at value village since almost everything was 99 cents! We didn't get very much clothing at all so I went a little nuts but hey it was cheap so why not? I love second hand stores!

West I keep getting the Bh's! WHen I walk a get a bunch of them and it makes me nervous but they aren't painful so I don't worry about them.

Melsue gorgeous pics! I wish we were getting some done.

 

[Csunshine013]

[Kelly9]

Vacation is going well, time is flying by! I can't believe I'm 28 weeks already! I definitely am seeing why they say third trimester is the most uncomfortable though!
