Jennifer-YAY! I'm glad your appt. went well. I bet you are so excited to see your little bean! Congratulations.
Kris-are you still pregnant? I am. Only 8 and a half more hours of this day so I think I dodged the 666 bullet. Ha Ha
So yesterday Alex tells me that I can't have this baby until Wednesday night b/c he has 2 important meetings on Wednesday during the day that he can't miss. Then he tells me that Thursday's not really a good day either but he could miss it IF HE HAD TO. Like I have anything to do with it. I wanted to claw his eyes out. I told him that he had to stop scheduling meetings at some point b/c this baby will come whether he's got meetings scheduled or not. I kind of hope this baby will come at 5:00 tomorrow night (right when his most important meeting is scheduled for), just to spite him. Man, I am getting cranky. I'll talk to you girls later.

Amanda, My husband is the same with work I really hate it. I'm still here . Well I called the doc because I was getting cramps & lower back pain all day and today he said that it could be the sign of early labor. I don't even know what contractions feel like so I can't even tell if there contractions or not. Can you clue me in a little bit? It feels like the baby has dropped to but I still don't know if I'm dilating or not. I have a non-stress test tomorrow again so hopefully we will see if I'm getting contractions or not. How are you feeling? Kristina K

Amanda four days!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAARRGGGHHH!!!!! I read Mike your story about your hubby, he started to laugh and told me a story that is even worse then yours... I hope that when you hear this you will no longer want yo claw your hubby's eyes out.... ok, Laura came into work 3 days before her SCHEDULED C SECTION and told Mike that her husband scheduled a dental appointment for 1.5 hours after the c section... his excuse? He wanted to get it taken care of while they were in town. lol that is too funny. What an ass. Kris five days!!!!!! WooHoo I cannot wait! --- When is your next appointment? Will you have an internal exam at the next one? About the contractions... I promise, you will know when you are in labor, there is no mistaking it once it is here. Jenn: I am glad the appointment went OK, and that you get your baby's first photo in just a few days!!! Here are my newest family photos, just wanted to share... let me know what you think!

Jacque: My next appointment is tomorrow so I'm hoping they do an internal because he said the next one would be near your due date and it is. I also have my non-stress test today so we will see.
Your family picture is so nice I can't wait until Sara comes out so we could have a family picture too.
Jennifer: Good luck at your sonogram this week can't wait to see a picture of your little bean. I'm happy everything went well with you at your doc visit.

Kris-You will know when it's labor-trust me. If you have any doubts, it's not labor. Regular painful contractions 5 minutes apart for an hour and then you can go to the hospital (for a 1st baby). It could take hours to get to that point even once your contractions start. I'm sure your doc told you all this though. Walk and take baths and see if you can get anything going. Good luck at your nonstress test today!
Jacque-I know my husband doesn't mean to be an ass (most of the time), but he gets so preoccupied w/ work that he thinks of nothing else. I love your new pics-they are great!

Hey girls, I'm back, but only for a couple of minutes. My poor DH is in the car with my girls while I'm in the public library typing. This totally sucks, but we're getting a new cpu at the end of July. Amanda& Kris, I'm SO EXCITED FOR YOU! The race is on. By the next time I'm able to get to the library to check this board, you will both probably have delivered. Amanda, you had me laughing out loud in the library about that Vince Vaughn thing. You're hilarious! Diane- Yes, time for a new belly shot. LInda- I loved watching my girls playing belly soccer too. I'm so glad that she really is a girl, and I LOVE THE NAME! Jenn- I'm sorry that you have the crappy m/s. That totally sucks. Hopefully only a few more weeks till' it's gone.
We are all well. I'm still losing weight, 11 pounds last I checked which was a week ago. Amanda, I can't wait until we can afford the frozed SBD foods. That will make life easier, b/c you're right, you do have to cook a lot.
Jacque- I miss you too. *I posted more to you on the other board.
Abriyel is eating already! I got desperate and decided to give her a little rice cereal in her bottle a few nights ago. It didn't work, so last night I fed it to her in a bowl, and she slept for 5 hours!!!!!!!! That is like 12 to me right now. I gave her more this morning and she just loves it. When I get a new computer, she'll be so big you guys won't even recognize her. She's just beautiful, just like her big sissy. Yesi is still doing fantastic with the potty training. Gotta go before my husband files for divorce. ha! Alisha

Well I am back from my ultrasound. The ultrasound tech was so cool, she even tried to give us a 4D ultrasound but the baby was still too little to see. So, Here is the first picture of our little baby!

Hi Girls!!!!! Well the non-stress went well yesterday so hopefully I won't have to go for one next week who knows. Doctors today went well I'm measuring 1 cm and getting soft so that is a good sign. He said that I should go on my own if not he will induce me no later than a week. So I guess it could be any day know I hope ;D ;D. Tomorrow I have another sonogram @ 9:30 to check her size and fluid. What a pain in the ass already with these sonograms I can't stand them anymore . Kristina K

Kristina: Well, at least one cm is a start. I hope that not hearing from you over the last few hours is a good sign! So, how did that pain in the ass sonogram go? Jennifer: Your baby is BEAUTIFUL! I think you are having a boy, he looks like a boy doesn't he? lol Alisha: I cannot believe that Abri is already eating cereal! Holy cow time flies.... I know about the computer troubles, but when you get up and going I would love to see some new photos, Abri has to look so different now! Amanda: I know that your hubby is not an ass... I COMPLETELY understand your vent. I posted the photos of Lexi's bedroom on the Chatterbox. I so love the purple and yellow! So, how about if you have a baby tomorrow. There are no meetings scheduled then right.... sorry, i am just screwing with you! Linda and Diane: Hi Ladies!!!! Before I forget... I started a poll on the Vote Vote Vote part of our site, it is to see who everyone thinks will deliver first... Amanda or Kris!Jacque

Hi all! A quick post. I have had a rotten day. Went to the doc's, she couldn't feel the baby's head in my pelvis AT ALL. Had to have quick ultrasound cause they thought she was breech (again), but of course no one could squeeze me in today, so went in to the hospital and Alex pulled some strings but of course insurance had an issue so that had to get all cleared up before they could do the US. I had the US and she is not breech at this point but very very high in the pelvis, not likely to be coming out anytime soon. They think she has been going in and out of breech position, hoping that she will stay head down at this point. The US tech measured her and she is somewhere between 7lbs 4oz and 8 LBS 14OZ!! I'm okay with the 7 lbs, not so much with the nearly 9lbs, esp. if she's not going to be born in the next day or 2, all she's doing is gaining weight! I'm waiting for my doc to call since she is talking c-section (please, please no). So as for voting I will place my bets on Kris going first, my baby doesn't want to come out.
Kris-glad all is going well with you! I hope Sara is born this weekend.
Jennifer-I'm so glad you got to see your little bean! How exciting.
Jacque-thanks for posting my nursery pics, I'll post over there later.
Amanda

Hi Ladies!!!!!!!! Hate to say but my little Sara is going to be born on Monday the 12th because they are inducing me ;D ;D ;D. I have to be in the hospital at 8:00am. The baby is measuring 6 1/2 lbs and is ready to come out and they don't want me to pass my due date for some reason. I'm very excited and nervous at the same time. But I can't wait to meet Sara already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The room is all ready we set everything up last night. I washed clothes, bottles, bedding, etc. I will post a picture later on of Sara's Room. Amanda: Good luck to you hopefully the next time I post on here you and me will both have our little baby's in our arms .

Hooray Kris! Hopefully by this time you are well on your way into labor-I think it's like 10am your time. I am sending you all my easy labor dust from when I had Abbie. Hopefully you will start a trend and I will have this baby today too.
Alisha-I'm so glad you were able to post (if only briefly). Congrats on the continued wt. loss. YAY for getting Abri to sleep for 5 hours! I can't believe she's already old enough to take cereal!
We had such a great weekend! Alex was not pouty and brooding about work (as is usual on weekends). We went to the zoo on Saturday. Abbie was our tour guide since my folks take her there like once a month (and we've never taken her since they take her so often). Then on Sunday we took Abbie to my folks and we had lunch and went shopping at Ikea. Then my folks brought Abbie back to our house and my Dad cooked a super yummy steak dinner for us. I definitely got plenty of walking in this weekend to help bring this baby down. We had sex like little energetic bunnies (well maybe one roly poly bunny and an energetic bunny). The sex didn't really do much except put DH in a state of bliss, I had a few contractions early Saturday morning but nothing exciting. I'm going to run a few errands this morning and then relax this afternoon (as much as I can w/ a 3 year old in the house).
I hope everyone had a great weekend!
Amanda

Kris - ELV for you!
Amanda - that was my problem with Luke, I was only 39 weeks along and he was already 10 lbs, so I had to have a c-section to get him out, hoping this one is smaller!

Hi girls, Amanda- I was so hoping that you would have your sweet baby by now. HOpefully really soon! I know how you feel though, I just couldn't wait to have Abri. It felt like I was going to Disneyland when I went in to get the csection done. I hope that your labor goes quickly and that next time I come on, the baby will be here! Jacque- I will post pics of Abri as soon as I can. I can't wait to show her and her big sissy off. They are such beautiful girls, but it's hard to tell in the pic, b/c their skin tones don't look right. Hopefully when I get my next cpu it will show them more accurately. When are you testing girl? Kris- I hope that your baby is in your arms right now. I can't believe that you are having her today. She will be just beautiful, just like her momma. I just know it. You are in for the most wonderful experience of your life girl, you just wait. I will never ever, ever, ever, ever, infinity, forget the moment that my girls were born. They were the happiest moment in my life. Jennifer- Your baby looks like a boy to me too (ha ha), but this board is know for putting out girls. Ha Ha! We'll see I guess. S/he is looking very large also. Tell us more about your symptoms. I'd like to do some guessing. Hope you are doing well.
Linda and Diane- Hi girls. HOpe you are both doing well with your pgs. Take care.
Update on us: Well, Abri and Yesi are doing fantastic. We are for sure out of the woods with potty training. She hasn't had even one accident in over a month. Even when we go on two hour trips over the mountain to visit my mom. She loves to stop on the side of the road and "pee in the grass." However, she doesn't quite understand that you can't pee in the grass in the middle of the city at noon. She would rather do that than go in a restroom. She's hilarious! Yesi is still a fantastic big sister. She just adores her baby sister and she told me the other day that she wants me to have another baby. She said, "Mommy, I want you to have me another baby, but this time I want it to be a boy that talks." Isn't that hilarious? I told her, "But what if it's another girl, wouldn't you still be happy?" and she said, "Yeah." She's so stinkin' cute. You know how we've been struggling with the idea of having a third baby. Well, Serge told me about a week ago that he has decided that he would really like to stick with our original plan and have one more. He said he'd like to try for a little boy. I told him, "YOu know that just cause' we try doesn't mean we'll get a boy," and he said, "I know honey, and I'd be so happy with three little princesses. I just don't want us to regret not trying someday." Then he said that he only wanted to try if I wanted to though, so it is 100% up to me. So, I'm pretty sure that I will have another one after all. I just have to get some of this weight off first. So, I think I will stick to the South Beach Diet until I get pg again, have my third baby in about two and a half years or so, (God willing) and THEN go on Nutrisystem. Unless I don't start losing more weight. I'm a little frustrated b/c I've been plateud for about two weeks. I've only lost 11 pounds for goodness sakes, so I don't know why I'd plateau already. Usually I don't plateau for at least a couple of months. Abri is doing really well. She is such a little cutie and she LOVES to eat. She's growing like a little weed. I am going to Walmart after I post this to get size THREE diapers. Can you believe it? At her two month checkup she was already 12 and a half pounds. Yesi only weighed 10 pounds at that checkup. I'm in shock. She's got to be about 15 pounds or more by now. She's so adorable with her little chunky thighs. She has three rolls on each thigh!I love to pinch them. Hee hee! We got her ears pierced on Friday, and they look adorable. She bawled though, so I felt like the world's worst mom. I didn't want to do the second one, but of course I had to or she'd look silly. When I got Yesi's done, she didn't cry at all. It was like it didn't hurt her at all. So I thought, heck I'm getting this done now. Oh well, it's over now and she only cried about 30 seconds, and she'll never remember it. She's going to be 3 months old this Saturday, on Serge and my anniversary. We've been married for 6 years this Saturday, and together for 10! I can't even believe how fast life passes you by. Before I know it I will be back on here obsessing over my cycles with all the other TTC mommies. Take care girls, Alisha
