TTC and Beyond!

The joann's in Dubuque isn't bad but I think they are all grandmas working there. But a family friend owns the local sewing shop so if I need help I usually go there.
 
So if when I went to my doctors appointment they said the baby was measuring ahead by one day, would I still go by my original "weeks" .. example.. on 11/5 I was 7+2 but the scan measured the baby at 7+3 so do I start going by that, or do I keep going with what I was? Only curious becuase I'd be 8 weeks on Saturday instead of Sunday if I went off the measurements. It's a dumb question because it's only one day, but I'm just curious! lol.
 
Boo for being sick Ashlee!

Nikki-So exciting! We have to do everything early bc we are high risk too. Baby showers in Dec/Jan and my bags will be backed around that time was well. I'm so excited for you! What are you doing for maternity leave? Will you take off before the birth or just wait it out? I really have a feeling I will end up on bedrest before hand, so I'm assuming I'll be off before lol I'll be surprised if I make it!

I think I am starting to feel better...I don't want to jinx it! However, my uterus hurts. I wouldn't at all call the pain cramps, it's just uncomfortable and annoying. I've been sitting in this rolly chair that is too high and can't be adjusted. Everytime I have to get up for something it hurts a little...or at least is annoying. I probably need to drink more water and get some rest. It's been a busy week and not enough water or sleep...
DW's bday is this weekend. We are going to do some baby stuff, work on the room mainly. We have a fancy double date planned for tomorrow night at the Melting Pot. I really need some sleep and relaxation!
 
Britt-I have no idea...I say pick what you want! I got lucky and mine have measured exactly on time so far, so I didn't have to change anything lol
 
Julie-I hope you guys have a nice relaxing weekend for her birthday!
 
hmmm true.. they didn't change my due date, so i'm wondering if I should keep going with my original.. meaning I wouldn't be 8 weeks until sunday.
 
I love the Melting Pot MORE!!! Lol we have one here at Easton (the shopping center near our offices) and I thought they were just in Ohio! Enjoy Julie- I'm jealous! :)

P.s. I got the sweetest, softest yarn and a 5.5m hook ("I" hook?) and am having a girl from work help me get started. She's a pro, so hopefully I'll be on my way to a pretty blanket by tonight. So excited!
 
The closest Melting Pot is an hour and a half away I have never been there.
 
Britt, I was measuring a day behind but I'm still going with my original date because its not uncommon to measure off at the beginning and also I know when I O'd.

My abdomen is so sore today...feels like I've been doing loads of crunches which, let's face it, definitely hasn't been happening.
 
If you know when you O'd i'd just go by that date. A LOT of women have no clue when they O'd when they find out they are pregnant so doctors go by LMP and the average O day. But if you know when you O'd i'd definitely go by that date. I know I will when I get pregnant lol.
 
Morgan I just think it's so amazing that you just found out it's Marley inside your little belly when in the beginning of this pregnancy you were so worried she wasn't going to stick. So amazing what life can bring you through all the ups and downs.

I'm really so happy for you all :) You all deserve it so much and are going to be such amazing mamas. I hope to join you all in the ranks someday SOON! :)
 
I've measured ahead every time but my due date has stayed the same based off my lmp. I think measurements matter more once you are closer to delivery.
 
So thrilled for you Morgan!!! Question for you, do you still have a boy nursery, or did you change it after you lost him? I havent touched a thing in Silas' room, and I dont know if I even want to.
 
We actually moved since then and boxed everything up of his. Once we move AGAIN to wherever we'll live for a while (our lease is up next July) then we'll make a baby girl room. We have lots of his special things we'll keep/frame but lot of gifts from my registry- bottles, binky's, bath/nursery/nursing stuff that we will use for our girl. But it will definitely hurt my heart to open those boxes again. I'd like to think he wouldn't mind sharing with his sister ;)
 
Hey ladies!

Got home a bit ago from a couple days away at a work conference....blahhhh. That's why I've been posting randomly.

Anyways, I'm so excited for you Morgan that you found out what your little one is. What a wonderful bday present! I have 2.5 weeks till we find out!!

I have been feeling baby every day!! I think it had hiccups earlier because they were consistently spread out pops that felt like bubbles. I LOVE it!! I can't wait until the jabs get stronger. I think I've mostly been feeling rolling and turning but who knows. We went to the movies the other night and this baby was moving all over the place. I think from me laughing so much. Poor thing couldn't sleep! We went to buy buy baby while we were away and I got my little gift bag and scanned a few things. We don't have a store in Charleston. And I'm going back home in a week so I'm going to hit up h&m for some cute baby clothes while I'm there :)

Hope you are all doing well!
 
Morgan- I looooove the name!! And I touch my belly constantly, it's funny!

Brit- if you measure within 5 days of LMP, they will use LMP as your due date so I just use that so I have the same timeline as the doc!

Just traded in the 2010 murano I bought in April for a brand new 2013 Rogue! Only increased my monthy payment be 20$, booyah!!
 
So glad you are starting to feeling better, Julie!!!

Rachel- yay for starting the registry and feeling baby move more consistantly!! :) so fun!

Nikki- enjoy your baby shower Hun!! You're getting to close to holding that little girl!!

Yea we have the whole nursery set up still for a boy....green walls with trees and baby deer, etc. It's not too girly so if its boy we re good to go, otherwise I dont know what I will do.
