    Novembumps...

     

    How many weeks are you?  almost 21

     

    Next appointment?  Wednesday the 17th - just a checkup

     

    How are you feeling overall?  pretty good

     

    Latest peeve and/or excitement?  registering is CRAZY!  I can't believe all the stuff we apparently "need".

     

    Cravings?  not really.  aversions to mexican though

     

    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy?  I might be startingto feel movement.  I haven't decided if it is gas or baby.

     

    Bump or nursery pics if you care to share....

     

     

    Nursery Inspiration

    Lilypie Third Birthday tickers Lilypie First Birthday tickers
    TTC #1 13 cycles, CP 6/09, TTC #2 1 cycle
    CDing, EP'd for 13 months for #1, BFing for #2
    Pregnancy Hypertension - inductions at 39w, I grow big babies: DD was 9 pounds 1 ounce 22 inches, DS was 11 pounds even 22 inches - both vaginal deliveries
  • I LOVE the inspiration!!! How pretty!!!

    And what a cute bump!!

  • Novembumps...

    How many weeks are you?  Just about 23.
    Next appointment?  3/25 (24 wk check up)
    How are you feeling overall?  Pretty darn good Smile
    Latest peeve and/or excitement?  I'm excited that I'm feeling baby girl pretty consistently now.  I'm peeved that I'm still calling her "baby girl," as D will not agree to ANY of the names I suggest.  Stick out tongue
    Cravings?  Nah.
    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy?  I'm starting to feel my 'weight' more, if that makes sense...not in a good way, especially at night.  Lame.
    Bump or nursery pics if you care to share...  I've been pretty bad about taking regular bump pics...think I will start to do this weekly once I hit 28 weeks.  And we haven't even started our nursery, although this is the bedding we are using:

    I knew it looked familiar, I just couldn't place it.  I once had a cat named Penelope only we called her Penny-loap. (random, i know)

     

  • So cute!  Love the pics so far....those nursery sets are adorable!

    Latest peeve and/or excitement?  registering is CRAZY!  I can't believe all the stuff we apparently "need".

    Haha! I remember that. There are so few things there that are a real must

     


    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy?  I might be startingto feel movement.  I haven't decided if it is gas or baby.

    I like how it was described to be cause that's exactly how it felt: "does it feel like a plop... plop?"

    And love the nursery inspiration!!

     

  • MIL's name is Penelope.  Very random Smile

  • How old is baby this week? Weight? Hunter is 4 months and 3 weeks old + some days. About 17.5 lbs. Any milestones or accomplishments? He's stopped STTN...which is cool with me. Baby cuddles are baby cuddles even at 2 am. A big milestone is we think he's cutting a tooth. What is he/she doing different this week? He's really interested in the dogs lately. Especially Wrigley. Sometimes he'll hold out his hands for Wrigley to come over and he grabs his ears and Wrigley licks his face. It makes my heart explode. He's also chit chatting like crazy. He gah gah gah's all the time, so fun! And he is sitting up on his own if we place him like that. He's ahead in that milestone! What are you looking forward to him/her doing soon? Rolling over! He's a little behind on that. He's done it a few times but we think he lacks the trunk strength to do it too much. Anything else you want to add... I am having so much fun at this stage. He's been very snuggly lately especially in the early morning hours and I'm soaking it up. In 13 years he'll never want snuggles anymore! Pictures please!

  • YesYes for this post.  Love all the baby news!
  • Novembabes...

     

    How old is baby this week?  Weight?  Scarlett is (see ticker below).  She weighs about 18 lbs, I think.

     

    Any milestones or accomplishments? She is SO ready to walk.  She's pulling up on everything.  When I hold her hands, she walks around the room.  And she reaches up for me to pick her up.  It melts my heart.

     

    What is he/she doing different this week?  Lots of growling.  The folks at the GTG saw it.  She's a pirate.  Arrrrrr.  Or a lioness.

     

    What are you looking forward to him/her doing soon?  I am waiting for that first word that sticks.  I think she says "Hi" but not consistently.  And last night we got a full sentence of gobbledy gook that really sounded like "Ginger, get on your bed right now!"  How many times has she heard us say that?!?

     

    Anything else you want to add...

    She is just the light of my life right now.  I can't tell you how happy she makes me.  The little smiles and the reaching and the bouncing.  And she is a terrible snuggler.  She digs her little head into your body and scratches.  We need to work on this.

     

    Pictures please!

    I will load some to post.

  • Novembumps...

     

    How many weeks are you?  17 today

     

    Next appointment?  Monday the 22nd.  Anatomy U/S, followed by my regular checkup.

     

    How are you feeling overall?  Pretty good.  Traded the nausea for occasional headaches and occasional dizzy spells.

     

    Latest peeve and/or excitement?  Trying to get my husband to work with me on naming this child. 

     

    Cravings?  Not necessarily cravings, but I'll hear a suggestion/a food and suddenly that's exactly what I want.

     

    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy?  I feel the pressure/weight of where my uterus is located off and on during the day, and my belly is getting hard.  No movement yet.

    We will!

  • Novembumps...

     

    How many weeks are you? 39 weeks!!! EEEEEEEKKKK!!!

     

    Next appointment? Wednesday ( the final one, before we schedule the induction if Sadie doesn't make her appearance b herself!)

     

    How are you feeling overall? Fabulously...but big!  Sadie is definitely getting squished in there!

     

    Latest peeve and/or excitement? Can this baby come out already so I can meet her?  I just want to see her little face and hold her against my chest and kiss her and love her and watch her lay on her daddy's chest...and fall in love over and over and over and over 5 bagillion times with both of them!

     

    Cravings? not so bad...but I gotta quit eating girl scout cookies! LOL

     

    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy? My belly button itches!  That's cause it's stretching, but it's just weird!  Sadie is chilling in the same spot and keeps kicking my ribs on the right side...not always comfortable!

     

    Bump or nursery pics if you care to share.... I have a bunch of pictures, I have just been SOOOO busy that I haven't posted.  I am off now, so keep looking out for them!  I will let you all know when we've updated!!

  • How old is baby this week?  She will be 7 months on Monday . . . time is flying by so fast!

     

    Weight? 17 pounds. 

     

    Any milestones or accomplishments? Every day is something new.  This week she has started really yelling just for the heck of hearing herself . . . cracks me up.  She's a ham in the mornings too, wakes up on the silly side of the crib for sure!  She is really into music now, too.  R says he loves listening in on me when I am rocking her and singing her to sleep . . . and he cracks up at us when we are dancing around the kitchen.  Bebe even babbles to music, which I think is her version of singing. 

     

    What is he/she doing different this week? Today she became obsessed with fruity Cheerios . . . fun stuff.  She has become a pro at going to sleep on her own now, too.  I'm going to miss rocking her so much but its a nice change.  Now I just rock her for a bit and then lay her in the crib when she is sleepy.  She just rolls over and goes to sleep on her own . . . its awesome!

     

    What are you looking forward to him/her doing soon?  Talking, definitely talking!!!  Our entire family is just dying for her to be able to speak up!!!

     

    Anything else you want to add...  I'm in love with the pregnancy updates!  I wish I had taken the time to appreciate my pregnancy more . . . you ladies make me want to do it all over again!  (In a few years, though!)

     

    Pictures please! If you insist!!!  Big Smile
