Fx Katrina!!

Cass, sorry things are rough! Cute bump!

Congratulations, BB!

Summer colds ARE the worst. Mine is lingering. Ugh. Feel better soon!

I love that pregnancy makes me cry at anything for nothing. Poor Hubby! And this week needs to get over already. Thank goodness it's halfway! Anybody have big plans this weekend? We have a dr appt Feiday afternoon and ultrasound, yard saling for baby clothes Saturday and a tractor pull and Sunday, cleaning, laundry, and yard work. Busy busy!

I can't not wait to see zuris room all done.
I have a wedding this weekend, I get to wear new boots today I'm super tired and have a stomach ache.

Morning Ladies...I promise I've been reading along just haven't had much time to comment.

love all the baby pics...I can't believe how fast they are growing up!

BB, yay for 2nd tri!

Katrina, I am crossing everything I can for you this month I really hope this is the one!

AFM, just hanging out at cd 43 with no af in sight and no bfp either. It's so frustrating but I'm just trying to focus on working out, keeping my stress levels down and enjoying life at the moment. Once af shows, I may be tempted to start OPKs again and maybe temping

 

[brunettebimbo]

Sounds like you all have lovely plans.

I'm working tomorrow and Friday. Have my consultant appointment tomorrow afternoon. We have Hubby's kids this weekend so going. Out for dinner with some friends and their children.

hey gals,
i'm reading reading reading adn up to date - just busy at work adn SO so tired.
i also have a cold, a head cold. been snoring at night apparently, as well as coughing and cant hear too well. OH has taken to wearing ear plugs, hehe. i think i'm on the up-swing, but even when i feel like i get good sleep, i am not feeling rested. just my whole body is tired. been having lots of BH and more painful pains - maybe Alek is engaging? then again, he is still moving like a crazy man in my ribs, so hard to tell. i do well during the day for the most part, but at night i'm hot, itchy, and generally uncomfortable. we did our maternity photos yesterday, so i'm glad those are out of the way, i was a little worried he'd come before them!
otherwise, not much to report here. tick tock, just waiting.
happy 2nd tri BB

Happy 2nd tri BB

Cant wait for some babies Mirolee and Cassidy!

Rachel- as for the puffs, apparently there are different kinds of "star" puffs. The big ones are for 9 months old and the half stars are for 6 month olds. At least Alia chocked (but not bad) on the full/big stars, but her daycare showed me the half stars and we gave Alia some and she did fine. So just to note. Daycare said they get the half stars at King Supers grocery store (not sure if you have that near you).

Alia's day care has a case of hand and food...PLEASE DONT LET HER GET IT! She has tooth number 2 coming!! Gave her highland pills today and she seemed drugged after.... makes me nervous!

BB - congrats on 2nd tri!!!! It's going so fast!

We are supposed to go to a cookout this weekend at a friends house that lives over an hour away. I was going to take Harper with us but i'm afraid if she still hates the car, she will scream for an hour. I know I won't be able to handle that. Not sure what we will do right now.

 

[Disneybaby26]

Just had a play date with daycare. One of little kids (just learning to talk) called Miss Pati "mom" over and over. Tears.... I know it will be good for her to socialize but this is definitely going to be hard for mommy

 

[wavescrash]

Waves, such cute little girls! Suggestions on photo editing software? I've always liked taking pictures, and I suspect it's about to increase when our little guy is born.

Thanks

I use Adobe Camera Raw and Photoshop CS5.

Ugh a little upset. Just got back from my appt. and tested positive for GBS. I know it's really not that big of a deal but not liking the fact i'm gonna need antibiotics throughout labor.

 

[Disneybaby26]

Don't worry Cass-definitely no biggie at all. Hen you go in they out in IV fluids regardless of If you want an unmediated delivery or not. They just add the antibiotic in through there and you're good to go!

 

[brunettebimbo]

What's GBS?

 

[clynn11]

Group b strep. Apparently 25% of pregnant women develop it. Here in the us they test for it between 35 and 37 weeks. If you test positive you get antibiotics through an iv during labor. If you don't get antibiotics the chances of your baby getting it are 1 in 200, with antibiotics chances are 1 in 4000. Can result in still birth or death after birth if passed to baby, or cause other issues.

[brunettebimbo]

OMG the UK don't test for that!

 

[Cowgirl07]

Happy second tri Bb.
Leah looks awesome so big.
Afm Bbs hurt, but no other side effects.

 

[Disneybaby26]

Katrina- do they usually hurt after O ?

 

[Cowgirl07]

Yeah, but normally not this bad.
Cass I'm sorry about the gbs.
