Re: Novembumps and babes

  • How are you feeling overall? Very disappointed!  I actually thought she was coming today after 4 hours of straight contractins every 10 minutes....she seems to be hanging out in there for now.  I just don't want her to be born tomorrow!!  I've told you all why!  I want her to have her OWN birthday not with Gil's sister...she better not come out tomorow!

     

    Latest peeve and/or excitement? See above!

     

    Cravings or aversions?  I am VERY hungry right now for anything...I think I'm gonna eat lunch, cause I think Sadie is just hangin!

     

    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy? See above again LOL

     

    Latest greatest/worst advice you have received. just relax...your body will do the work...Thanks for that advice...I WANT THIS BABY OUT!!!

     

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

    Expecting ladies...

     

    How are you feeling overall? Pretty good.  I've had some round ligament pain the last few days.

     

    Latest peeve and/or excitement? I *think* I felt the baby move last night, but I was asleep so I don't know if it happened or if I dreamed it.  I pressed my belly and then I got "thump" back as though baby was saying, "Excuse me mama but you're infringing on my space"  Since I was asleep I don't know if baby moved or if it was a dream.  My mom told me she never felt flutters but the first time I moved it was a "thump". 

     

    Cravings or aversions? No real cravings. Aversions are to stuff that smells bad.

     

    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy? We go Monday for the ultrasound.  We're still not finding out baby's gender, but it will be nice to see baby again.  And I have a regular appointment with my OB afterwards, so we'll be getting J's bloodwork results and the results of my second bloodwork for genetic screening.

     

    Latest greatest/worst advice you have received.  Not much in the last couple of weeks.

     

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

  • Expecting ladies...

     

    How are you feeling overall?
    Pretty well, except for my *TMI ALERT* hemorrhoids.  Tongue Tied

     

    Latest peeve and/or excitement?
    I miss alcohol.  Nothing really new, but *damn* I could have used a drink (or four) Monday night.

     

    Cravings or aversions?
    Nah.

     

    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy?
    It's gotten a little more difficult to bend over over my belly and put on pants in the morning.  Stick out tongue

     

    Latest greatest/worst advice you have received.

     

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

    We've picked out our big nursery furniture.

    Not 100% sure, but I think we're going with the crib (duh) and the dresser / changing table combo (i.e., not the tall wardrobe).  I also registered.  W00t.

  • How old is baby this week?  Weight? See ticker below...  and she and Ginger weigh the same!  17 lbs.    Any milestones? She is practicing standing.  She can hold it for about a second before grabbing back on to the table or couch.  This also means she bangs her head a lot while falling down.  She's a quick crawler now!  She can be across the room as soon as you turn your back.   What is he/she doing different this week?   Coughing, sneezing, diahrrea.  She's back to singing herself to sleep.   What are you looking forward to him/her doing soon?  I am looking forward to words, waves and longer standing.   Latest greatest/worst advice you have received.  The DCP said she needed more food, so we send it, and then she doesn't eat it.    Anything else you want to add?...  It's been hard to be away from work for two days.  I love being here with her and taking care of her, but I don't want to be seen as a mama who skips out on work all the time.  MIL is going to watch her tonight and tomorrow, so I'm going in to the office for a few hours tomorrow to catch up.  Then some window shopping and other me time!   Pictures please! I just took this video... http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1393128676983&ref=mf  
  • How are you feeling overall? Generally like I have a hangover.  Mornings and evenings are the worst, so at least I get a reprieve during the middle of the day.  I'm also incredibly tired, however I've discovered that a good night's sleep really helps with the nausea.

     

    Latest peeve and/or excitement? Just ready for the nausea and extreme fatigue to go away.

     

    Cravings or aversions?  I pretty much only want carbs right now.  I can make myself eat fruit, but veggies are a different story.  Also, I have no desire to eat meat.

     

    Anything new/different going on this week with your pregnancy? Not physically, but my first OB appointment is on Monday.  If they go by my LMP rather than my ovulation date, they're going to say I'm closer to 12 weeks than 8.  That will be interesting....I hope they don't laugh when I pull out my chart.

     

    Latest greatest/worst advice you have received. From my sister:  "Pregnancy takes a healthy body and destroys it."  She's so helpful. Stick out tongue

     

    Bump or nursery pics if you care to share....  No pictures unless you want to see my untoned stomach.  We have yet to start cleaning up the room that will be the nursery.

  • How old is baby this week?  Weight?Not entirely sure.  Somewhere around 17-18 lbs (Yes, he's a chunk).  Any milestones? He's actively reaching for me now.  And he's got teeth!  One poked through the gum, the other one is in there but not all the way out yet.  What is he/she doing different this week?  Sleeping better *KNOCKS ON EVERY WOODEN PIECE OF FURNITURE* What are you looking forward to him/her doing soon?  Right now, I just look forward to our morning snuggles on the weekends.  I can honesty say they are the single greatest thing in my life.  Latest greatest/worst advice you have received.  Let him CIO.  No, CIO is not for me.  I have no qualms with those who use it, but I would never tell anyone else they should try it. Anything else you want to add?... I know I should be concentrating on my marriage more and I really need to remember to make it a priority.  Both of us are addicted to Hunter and I think we need to take a time out and get a hotel room for a weekend sans baby.  Even if we have to force ourselves to do so.  Pictures please!See FB.  My baybee gets his picture taken daily, yo.
