We don't have anything like black Friday over here I don't thinkSo jelous of you guys! I'm sticking it out till the Christmas sales!
Fingers crossed this is the month for you Blessed when will you be testing?
Had my gender scan today and we're having another beautiful boyx
good luck blakesmom!! can't wait to see some pics!!
seriously, the US needs to reform its views on women taking maternity leave. how do you not get unemployment especially for that?? I hope that's something that's addressed in the near future, I really feel for you guys.
armymama, I also had back pains, but almost whole pregnancy. it stemmed from my job (which was pretty physical).. maybe you bent the wrong way or did something too strenuous? hope you're feeling better.
carebear, how about that snow!!! hahaha. I complained last year we had none for Christmas and now it looks like the white stuff is sticking around. I hope it snows for Christmas!!
anyone started their Christmas shopping yet??
Will update more later from my laptop but Lukas is here and in my arms right now. Best feeling in the world to have my rainbow here--love to you all
Congrats Blakesmom!!!
AFM... HCG is down to 9 .. bleeding has stopped.. Let the TTCing begin!
Here is me and my announcement poster:
Still learning how to post from my phone and can only seem to upload 1 pic at a time but here is my little Lukas...
Announcing: I felt my baby move last night!
She's here! 3:55 AM, 8.8 and 20 1/2 inches long. Full head of dark curly hair!! Oh what a ride it was. Idk how to upload pics from my phone so I will do so when I go home![]()
Thanks everyoneI can't believe how much hair she has either, that's what the 24/7 heartburn got me hehe
I had to start pumping today because Iz wouldn't take a full feeding from the boob and so needed to be fed every 45 minutes. No sleep for either of usI've had breastfeeding shoved down my throat for the last nine months so now I feel like a bad mom. But my boobs feel better, and she's actually comfortable AND still getting breast milk, which are all good things I'm trying to focus on instead. Recovery is going pretty well. I can't wait for these stitches to disappear though, they are uncomfortable.
We have snow here too, and more in the forecast. After a brown Christmas last year it's a very white one now![]()
Oh gosh, can I join please? My EDD was July 1st 2013 and I REALLY want to be pregnant again before that. I just had a D&C Monday but will be trying again as soon as I stop bleeding!
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, whigfield.I hope you get your forever BFP very soon!
I'm not looking forward to the snow, we're supposed to get 12-17 inches in less than 24 hours, some of which will be during work tomorrow, followed by heavy winds creating blizzard conditions in the afternoon/evening when I'm supposed to be coming home. I think there's a good chance I'm going to get stuck in snow in the country either getting to work or getting home, trying to shovel myself out of a ditch while 8 and a half months pregnant.![]()
sam, lucky you to have a white christmas!! and don't worry about having to pump, I had it shoved down my throat too. they even gave me flack when I gave him formula for a few days till my milk came in (apparently that was the end of the world). I just pump full time now, nothing wrong with it, I'm happy about it and he's getting my milk so everyone is happy!
blakesmom(andLukas!), I am definitely jealous of the snow.. I kinda want some, but our forecast is showing a green christmashow's the little one doing?
AFM, I was baby sitting my nephew (husbands sister's son) who is 3 and a half.. boy did I get a taste of what my life will be like in a few years when we try for our second.. what a handful!! I'm supposed to watch him again this friday too!!!
