Wow, Jacque 14 weeks, you are flying by!
Linda - that is a late appt.
Got back from my appt, everything looks good.
IT was cute we caught her yawning. Then the brain, heart, and she is practicing her breathing.
She is measuring big 6 lbs 7 ozs right now, but doc thinks we should still try a VBAC as long as I am planning on getting hte epi so if an emergency arises I am ready to go.
I have a couple pics but not good ones except for her privates - she is definitely a girl. She had her hand in front of her face.

34 1/2 weeks OB appt udate: So, found out today that I'm measuring 6 weeks ahead!!! Yes, that's right I have a belly of a 41 week pregnant person! My blood pressure was fine, urine was fine, heart rate was fine. Doc wants to start seeing me weekly and I get another u/s next week to check on amniotic fluid levels and the baby's size. He said that if my contractions start up and don't stop to give them a call and they will admit me and won't stop them seeing as I have a full term sized baby in there. He guesses I'll have a 10 lb baby again, oy vey! Oh, and I gained 5 lbs in 2 weeks! I think it's water, but anyway that makes a total of 15 lbs! ETA: belly pics from today

Linda: I love your photos! Especially the one of you and your friend, your belly's look so cute. I cannot believe how big you have gotten. You should post your belly progression collage again, with this last belly shot included, I think it is neat to "watch you grow". --- I looks like Luke had a great time at your hubby's company party. If I had my day care boys that close to a Garbage Truck (or a tractor, train, or really any vehicle larger then a mini van lol) they would totally freak out. Diane: You need to start checking in every day, because if you are gone for more then a day or so we are all going to start talking about how you could be having the baby. Well.... I said I was going to start breakfast after I posted on the preggo mommies board, but everyone is still sleeping so I am going to take advantage of my computer time and keep posting. Jacque

LOL! Jacque - if I have time I will post a quick leaving for the hospital post. If I go to full term which I doubt since I didn't with Jacob, I have 22 days left. We are starting to have sex every other day to help with dilation, it worked while pg with Jacob. guess I will know if it is working since I have my first internal Tuesday
Linda - the work party looks fun
Hope eveyrone is having a great weekend

Diane: My guess.... you will be dilated to two at your next appointment, but you will not give birth until September 8th at 11:30pm.
So ladies... my fear of the moment is a c-section... how bad are they, and how long did it take you to heal afterwords???

Made a video montage of our cruise I'm just playing around today and thought I'd practice so I know what I'm doing once Isabelle is born, enjoy! www.onetruemedia.com/shared?p=116dd43355cb1c381eb1bc&skin_id=0&utm_source=otm&utm_medium=text_urlJacque- what's your prediction for me? C-sections aren't that bad, the only bad part is the night of you have a lot of pain, and then the next few days your intestines start working again and you have lots of painful gas, also getting out of bed is hard for a week or so, but that's about it! I think the first night is what I'm dreading the most, but everything else is liveable.

Linda: Isabelle will be here on September 17th around 10am. They will have to move the date of your c/s because you will start to dilate around September 13th. --- I LOVE your video montage. I am in the process of making one of my family's history.... it should be really awesome once it is done. I loved seeing the photos of your trip again, I only saw a handful of them, and that seems like FOREVER ago. You know, everything about your trip looks unbelievable, but I have to say that the food LOOKS AWESOME!!!!! Holy cow, I would have lived on fruit and cake! --- I think making a video of Isabelle's first few hours/week is a great idea. I love looking at photos and setting them to music is just such an awesome idea. How long did it take to make the video of your trip? --- I am so scared that I will have to have a c-section.... I CANNOT have an epidural because of a condition I have with my spine. So, I would have to be put under, and that (more then anything else) scares the ever living crap out of me. Jacque

Oh, my belly is starting to look different. My "fat" is starting to firm up and fill out so I am not so flabby. I will post a new belly pic on the 15th, that will be two weeks since my last one. We also decided to find out if we will be having a little football player or a little princess. I cannot stand it, I need to know. Alisha is going to be so disappointed in me. I was just looking at the calendar, and it looks like we will be finding out sometime the first week of October, that is just a little over a month away!!!!!!!!!

Jacque - 2CM's would be great on Tuesday. The 8th of September sounds like a great date. DH wants to make it to Friday so we have a September baby.
wow, $20 for your sibling class, hope you like it. I couldn't believe how cheap mine was.
C-sec's aren't that bad, just remember don't try to do to myself and don't take yourself off the meds too soon, I did that and I paid. I would also try to get someone to help you for a few days. But hoepfully you own't a c-sec. I sure hope I don't!

Jacque - how exciting that you get to hear your little one's h/b today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My appt is at 3:15, so I will try to be back later today, it is in Peoria, and if I get out late we usually go somewhere to eat out.
I was feeling very uncomfortable yesterday, so hopefully that made me have a little progress, but will wait and see. 3'ish can't come soon enough, and I am sure you agree.
Hi Linda!
