TTC and Beyond!

Sandy- thx for info on graco car seats...ill b calling tomorrow!!
 
hey gals,
i'm sorry i suck so bad at responding, but i am completely up to date with reading....
i have been so fortunate to not have any bad symptoms during first trimester, but i'm feeling beat up by second tri already! i'm WAY more tired, i feel like breathing is a task, and my brain has left the building. and i'm fit enough to continue spinning 3x a week, but walking to the bathroom tuckers me out. and the peeing - whoa. i'm not sure if it was me or baby who had a growth spurt, but my bladder is getting the brunt of it. sigh, c'est la vie. i'm still so amazed and grateful and happy to be pregnant, i just didnt expect this! also, has anyone looked into cord blood banking? i'm considering it and wondering if anyone had thoughts...
 
Don't freak on the carseat recall ladies! It's just the buckle, not the whole seat- easy fix and you should be able to look up a number to call and they can fix it.
 
Also, I read that the recall was on toddler and booster seats, nothing about infant seats. But like Cassidy said, they said you can replace the buckle/harness and be fine

Glad everything is ok Sandy.

Here's a sneak pic from yesterday

Rachel- Look at that bump!!! It's so perfect! Can't wait to see more!

Well ladies! After all the talk about baby names, DH decided he wanted to use Harper Grace!!! He said he didn't want to start over again (we did make two separate lists and then see what we had that matched and then went from there) and he liked it! So Harper Grace it is! I am so happy! Now we have a name to call her and i'm so happy!
 
Thanks Britt! That is awesome! So nice to have a name decided
 
There is also a phone number on the article. I don't think my car seat is on the list, but I need to check my moms car seat and my in laws seat. Not too worried.

Rachel hot picture!
 
Anyone know of a good site or forum to keep up w baby item recalls?
 
I just wanted to say, real quick, that I hope none of you ever have to deal with a late-third trimester (engaged) breech baby. The pain is ridiculous lol. Another B&B mom due around the same time as me has the same thing going on with her 4th and final baby so she messaged me to complain about the pain and it's just made me more aware of how shitty I feel right now because of her position lol.

So fingers crossed that all of your little ones find a very comfy spot in the head down position when the time comes :)
 
So I should be happy that she's got her butt wedged in my ribs lol? Luckily this girl likes to be head down. Sorry you are in so much pain
 
Having the worst pain tonight. Shooting pain in my left hip down through the back of my thigh. I can barely walk or lay down :( it's happened a few random times before but never this bad or this long. Tjinking its PGP hopefully it doesnt keep getting worse as I get bigger.

sorry youre in so much pain still amanda. :(

Yaaaay for Harper, Britt!!!

Gorgeous picture and bump rachel!!!
 
Cassidy - that sounds like how my sciatica pain felt. It was impossible to walk when it would hit.

Thanks ladies. Lol I still get either her head or hands in my ribs which can be painful but I'll take a head down baby any day.
 
Glad you guys agreed on a name Britt!

Rachel, how cute! Can't wait to see more!

I didn't do maternity pics last pregnancy but I'd like a few with Hubby with my belly covered just to have.
 
i sent in my deposit for maternity/newborn shoot - 1 hour for me, 1-3 hours for baby K. i'm going ot split my hour into 2x30 mins, and do one outside with OH fully dressed, and the other 30 minutes boudoir style if possible. i'm so excited, and i think i got the package for a good price ($300 sounds good, right?)
 
Got her added to the front Britt! Love the name :)

Rachel- Cutest pic ever!! We have similar bellies lol. Very round.

Waves- Sorry you're in so much pain.... NOTHING from SpinningBabies has helped?? I read not only all fours, but rubbing your belly while on all fours to try and coax them to move works sometimes. Will they do a CS if she doesn't move soon??

Cass- My sciatica has gotten worse this entire pregnancy too.. started how you're describing it and shoots down my thigh when I've been sitting for a while.

I feel a bit immobile these days... Can't bend over to love on my puppy.. can't get in and out of bed without complaining to DH for 10 mins how awful it is feeling like a turtle stuck on it's back (he doesn't seem to care). I wish men had to be pregnant.

Also have an appt tomorrow morning.. hoping I don't have Pre-E bc I have been swelling like crazy lately, and that's never happened before. I guess my pee will tell the story, so we'll see. Also getting anxious that my shower is so late in my pregnancy.. I'll be 36 weeks. It will be great and all, but I feel like a crazy woman worrying about buying things and getting ready when I can't because I haven't even had my shower yet!! DH's gma emailed today saying she's shipping the bassinet to our house, what a relief. That will make my day to get to set up. Then after that all we really need is the cloth diapers and some random things like a Bumbo etc. I just want to plan and can't yet.. and by the time the shower is over I'll be 37 weeks and dying to have her out already! Wonder if I can start my hospital bag before the shower.. then just add things I like that are gifted to us.. Hmmph I'm a planner and this is stressing me out!!

Plus side, steakhouse booked for Valentine's day and I've got an adorable New Look red maternity dress to wear. So that should be fun. Just going to enjoy this next month with hubby and cherish the last time we've got alone together. Also trying to save, save, save since I'm quitting work once I can't get out of bed anymore (or go into labor!). My hospital is 2 mins down the road from work, 40 mins away from home. So I'd rather need to leave from here. What an ordeal that would be lol. Time is now flyyying and I'm getting anxious/excited/nervous!! :cloud9:
