Yay congrats likeaustralia!!!! More babies!

Had my Dr. appt. I am about 1cm and 0% effaced confirmed he is head down. Funny because with Everlee, at this point, I was 0cm 25% effaced.
I feel better about DH going out of town for a few days next week.
I can't believe Feb. will be here in a week! Yay!

Hey! So sorry I haven't been in here to announce Brecken's arrival! It's been a bit crazy around here. Brecken decided to enter the world at 38+2 weeks. When I went I to labor I was in a bit of denial since I was induced with Everlee and never experienced labor before. I started have contractions at 10pm on feb 8. They weren't very painful but def wasn't able to sleep through them. I timed them until a little after 2am and decided to call the on-call nurse to see if I should come in. DH and I then decided it was prob better to be safe than sorry. So at 3:30am we arrived at the hospital. I was at 2cm 50% and in early labor so they didn't admit me right away. They wanted to see if is make any progress. Finally at almost 1pm my dr. checked me. I was 3cm 70% effaced. They admited me. My dr. Swept my membranes and that really kicked everything into gear. an hour later is broke my water and I was 4cm. Around 3pm I received the epi. It didn't take all the way in my left leg so I had a sharp pain in my groin with every contractions. Not the best feeling but def. manageable. Just after 4:30pm the nurse checked me and I was at 5/6cm. They gave me a little pitocin because my contractions were starting to die down. At 5:30pm I was a full 10cm! I couldn't believe it. They waited a bit to have me push. I was able to hug and kiss Everlee. I pushed for 5 min and at 5:54pm I delivered a beautiful baby boy. 6lbs 6oz 19 3/4in. I didn't tear so recovery has been a breeze. So far I have been enjoying my sweet little guy. Everlee adores him. She has happily taken on the big sister role.
Posting a pic I photographed yesterday of my babies together.

Aw congrats jmandrews! Beautiful kids!

wantanerd - how are you feeling? I am soooo much more nauseous this time around!

 

[Wilsey]

Nawww sorry to hear that likeaus but hopefully it means a strong bubba!

How are the other pregnant ladies? how many do we have now? just likeaus and wantanerd?

 

[wantanerd]

Nausea is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much worse!!! =(. I feel like I have been nauseous since I found out I was pregnant 6 weeks ago! Hope to feel better soon. I have three weeks until I have to pack and move from VA to FL.

Oh nooooo! So sorry to hear that

man, I feel so lucky now. I had the exact same morning sickness for both pregnancies. Just a bit between weeks 6-8 (I think) and that was it. Few more random spews with Emily but always felt fine before and afterwards.

 

[likeaustralia]

In my google searches, apparently nausea is worse with girls? Lol and I've had a feeling that this baby is a girl from the beginning. We'll have to wait and see!

I'm also just having different symptoms in general. With my first, I had TERRIBLE acne like 3 days before I even got a BFP and my skin was good before that. With this one my skin hasn't changed since pre-preg and is actually pretty good right now at 9 weeks! I also had spotting before BFP this time, but no cramping like I did with the first.

 

[Wilsey]

Just never know do you likeaus! Certainly is the tradition of the thread haha.

Both my pregnancies were pretty much exactly the same. Think I had a few more headaches with Emily. But same weeks of nausea. Same heartburn. Pretty much same everything (except thankfully she was smaller haha)

 

[wantanerd]

I hope that's correct. I would love to have a girl. Yeah I broke out too before the BFP with Doyle and this time I have decent skin. I never puked with doyle either and I have this time around. It's definitely different this time around. But who knows until the ultrasound in 2 months.

 

[likeaustralia]

So I know it's a really personal thing for everyone, but when do you all announce your pregnancy?

We announced my first to immediate family at Christmastime and I was around 9 weeks. I haven't told anyone yet, except my husband obviously lol. I'm thinking I want to wait until after my 12 week scan this time around and then announce to everyone at Easter since we'll all be together in person. Is that waiting too long?? Are people going to be like "Why didn't you tell us sooner?!"

 

[wantanerd]

We announced over Valentine's Day Weekend. We heard the heartbeat that Friday and since it was our 7th wedding anniversary that weekend, we posted this on fb. My mom, dad, grandmother and his parents were told the week we found out we were pregnant. We announced the same time last pregnancy, well we didn't my FIL put in on facebook and we happened to be out of town so we couldn't untag ourselves so we went an announced around the same time to make sure we would actually get to tell people the way we wanted to.

People understand usually if you wait until the end of the first trimester.
