| We should set up a group! I'm 7weeks pp and chasing a 2yo. I'm EBF no pumping this time and having a hard time eating enough! We are dairy intolerant so I can't have major components of my normal diet! It's difficult but well worth it! Just started tracking calories to keep myself in check. I have 15lbs to go! | |||

Good Morning Girls!! I am late 'checking in'. I was HORRIBLY sick this morning... Felt like crap when I got up at 4am to pee, then it was 645 before I knew it. I decided to lay around and be about 30minutes late so that the queasyness passed. Well, it worked. So when I got up and started getting things ready I still felt fine. Got in the SHOWER (of all places the one you go to get clean) and lost it! Hurled everything I had...thankfully the hubby was within ear shot and brought me the trash can for most of the mess. I haven't had a morning like this ever!! I have been sick this whole time, but hadn't been in days and this morning makes me wish I just had been sick the last few days, I will take that anyday over this morning! Sam: YAY for a good appt! :) Glad everything is going right on track. I didn't cry at mine, I knew I wouldn't though. My Mother however cries about it all the time! haha...she is just so happy. Re: Maternity Pics- Yes, I definately want to do them. I don't think that I want to do the nakey ones though, they creep me out a little...haha. There are a bunch of people that I know that did them. I love looking at them. My only advice to pass on that everyone has told me is not to wait too long. I am going to decide on a person soon, and ask them when they want to schedule me. I want to do them about 30weeks I think. Vanessa: Isn't it time to SMACK that husband?? =) Off Topic: Just had a fantastic lunch! POTATO SOUP and CORNBREAD April: Soooo glad that your 1st rounds of testing came back good! What a relief. My next appt is the 27th too! WooHoo! :) Talk to you all soon! :) Have a GREAT HUMP DAY

April: try not to worry about the cramping, i have it every now and again. You may feel better if you research Round Ligament Pain during pregnancy, and the pains associated with our growing uterus. Every preggo I know is having it! :) Vanessa: Morning! :) Red meat, i gagged reading (and typing this) that is definately still on my no-no list...lol. I still love the bacon though. |

Morning All! :) Nicole: yay!! if your h/r doctor does what mine did during the NT ultrasound, you will get to see all of its organs and bones. IT WAS AMAZING!! Magr- Keeping you in my prayers. I am sure it would be scary for this child to have the same disorder, but on the bright side you would know what to expect so maybe it wont be as scary. How is everyone this morning? I just wanted another hour to sleep, but the clock and work wouldn't let me...lol. Is anyone starting to want sugar?? I don't think about it but everything I pick to eat is packed full of sugar. |

Nicole: they were good, I could really go for them right now!! haha...they unblocked this website from work. it will be the death of me. :) April: I was born with a cystic hygroma on my clavical bone. It isn't genetic, but there is also no explaination for them, so I had to go to the H/R (high risk) doctor. Yes, we see both because I don't go back to the H/R doctor for 2mos. I also opted out of the testing for Downs so that means I don't tech have to see him again for 9weeks, I think is what they said. The 2nd trimester starts at the 14th week. 13 weeks is the last week of your 1st trimester. Or so that is what all the books and things have said. |

Hey girls! Miss me...lol. I have read through everyones posts. There is no way I can keep up with you all on here, I barely check my emails anymore and when I do, I seem to have to pee so I just turn the computer off. We went on 9/29/2010 to the Reg OB and to the H/R doctor. HR was 158 &160. I love hearing it on the doppler, it was so cool. The H/R doctor's ultrasound was soooo long. I thought my Husband, who is a Radiographer, was going to die. I'd say we got to watch the baby for about 80mins. It was amazing, but the baby didn't like it at all. It danced, and headbobbed, tried its hardest to straighten out is incredible long legs. We are measuring just fine, the baby was an average measurement of 6.8cm, but we guarentee it is longer!! The poor thing looked like a smushed pea. I wish there was some way I could give it some leg room. We go back on 10/27 to reg ob. :) Don't know about gender appt yet. I am glad that everyone is doing well, if you haven't added me, facebook is the way to go. I have it on my cellphone and can actually look at it...haha! Some of the ?s you all were asking since I have been gone...lol. Wierdest foods eaten: I crave/smell/and taste SweetTarts, Brandon got me the giant chewy kind yesterday. They were soooo good. Weight Gain: 2lbs, but none of my clothes fit!!! Dreams: None any more wierd than usual yet. Well girls! TOMORROW IS THE BIG DAY! OFFICIALLY IN THE 2nd TRIMESTER!! 14 weeks preggo as of tomorrow. I am hoping the sickness with "turn off" like some say it will. Have a great day. I will try harder to get back on soon. |

Nicole: Thanks! We love it too!!! We want to do the 1st names things we pick out and then middle name(s) are after people. Catherine is after my mother, Josephine is after Brandon's mother. Sam: I will add you to fb as soon as I can find you...lol. I hope I get to veg this weekend. It is the 1st weekend brandon has been off in a while, so I am sure we will have to go to KY and visit family, which I don't mind, but the car ride makes me sick. |

You guys are waaaayyy on this more than I am. It is blocked from work now, so I am going to try to do it from home...haha! Facebook is the way to get ahold of me too!! Haha... We had an ultrasound today because I was horribly sick tuesday night. Everything looks great THANK YOU LORD!!! H/R was 162! :) Hope everyone is feeling great!! :) Morning sickness is still going strong for me...lol. I don't see it ending, but I am beginning to get used to that feeling. I love the names nicole! Hannah and Austin are my favs of your picks!! We have picked out names: Eden Cathering Josephine & Elijah David...but I want a backup name for the boy, I don't feel this baby can be named Elijah. We are doing E's for the first names!! :) It's a family tradition for Brandon's families. Talk to you all soon! =) |

Sorry girls that I was so behind. Here is a quick little catch up. It may be confusing, but I read all the comments and then answered…lol. I can't believe that I go so behind. I am going to do better i promise!! haha... Nicole318: I will keep you and your little one in my prayers. I am glad that all is going well, and your due date may change back. I had a friend that they upped her due date and then when she was in her 3rd trimester the baby grew very fast and she measured at what her 1st due date was… Just a little glimpse of similarity there maybe. I am so glad to see that your 2nd ultrasound went fine!! =) That is a great heartbeat!! Higher than mine was!! Cellulitedelite: Congratulations!! That is so exciting! You definitely need to start eating more. I however don’t have that problem; if I don’t eat every 2 or 3 hours I get soooo sick!! AprilBride: I am glad that you are feeling good! And that the SPOTTING has finally stopped!! It is great news and such a blessing. On your comment eat, sleep and pee. DH thinks it is us getting ready for the baby, that is all they will do and we will be used to that schedule…lol. Samantha81: Congrads!!! That is soooo exciting! J Glad that your appointment went great. We told everyone after the 1st appointment and we were 7 weeks. Don’t feel like a whip, pregnancy is hard!! I stay sickly all the time. I had the preggo pops and they worked wonders and then that didn’t last long at all. Now it is just a waiting game, sometimes even if I have taken my ZOFRAN I still end up puking. I have noticed that I only actually puke about once a day…so that is a blessing…lol. I have a lot of food aversions too. NO: sugar, meat, chewy things, acidic fruit, nothing tomato based, like spaghetti o’s…it is sooo hard to figure out. I crave BACON though. It is the only meat that I can even think about eating. And days that I don’t feel sick I freak out! I think that is very common. LilDutchGirl: I didn’t wait to tell my co-workers and wish that I had. It was such a mess; the end result is that I signed up for intermitted FMLA because I have to use them for everyday that I need to take off. It was a mess, and needless to say I wasn’t very happy…lol. Everything is back on track now, but some days I still get aggravated. Food Staples for me: Mac n Cheese, Grill Cheese, Teddy Grahams, Yogurt, cereal, but very small portions at a time, watermelon lately. I CRAVE kitkats and Bacon sandwiches…lol. On the question of the FLU shot…I am getting mine, I always get the regular flu shot. I don’t get or recommend the H1N1 shot, but there is a bit of it in the regular flu shots this year. And if you get them ask for the preservative free, they can get it for you!! Most OB’s recommend that you get all vaccinations that you can/need while pregnant so that our little beans will be healthy when they are born.

Hey guys!! I feel like I haven't been online in decades!! I very rarely get on the computer at home, never feel like it. This site won't load on my blackberry either!! =( Hope everyone is doing great. I will read back and catch up with everyone sometime today. I am doing pretty good. ZOFRAN is my newbest friend. It however doesn't work all the time. Sometimes I've just got to puke to feel better...which sucks. 2 more weeks and the 2ndtrimester is here, hoping that will solve things. I doubt it though, my Mom was sick the whole time with me too...BOO!! haha... The baby is doing great. We go to the regular doctor on the 29th, andthen that evening we have our 1st visit with the High risk doctor...they reschedule it last week. We did look at our little bean last Saturday night...Brandon finally broke down and let us have a quick peek. It was amazing. It's little arms andlegs moving around...it did a flip for us, waved and then turned its butt to us! haha!! It is def going to be our ornery child!! I will do better and log on soon! :) |

Hey everyone!!! How's everyone doing? We are good on my end here; only been sick (actual vomiting) one morning! I feel very blessed about that. The queasyness never completely goes away. I have just discovered TUMS and they make my life better, if only I would have remembered them today for work. Roo: NT? I don' t know all of the lingo, sorry. I hope we all get the energy boost a lot of people keep telling me about. I need it!!! Vanessa: How far along are you? I know some doctors don' t do them until week 13, I requested to have mine as early as possible though. haha, our hormones feel like they will be the end of us don't they!! April: Hope you are doing great!! I can't wait for the "honeymoon" phase, the poor DH is being neglected! haha... Nicole: Don't wish it away too fast, but I was also very anxious for my appt!! The u/s was the part I wanted more than anything!!! 2 more day!!! It will be here b4 you know it. We have good news, we should be completely moving in around 6 weeks. The land deal finally went through, and we ordered our house friday! We are so excited!!! New house, and before the newness wears off it will be new baby time! =) |

Hey everyone! =) Yesterday was amazing. I loved every minute of it. I had my ultrasound 1st, got to see my little bean and hear its heart beating! 120BPM!!!! The tech said that was great...they heard it on the 1st try and with a regular ultrasound at 7 weeks! The dr says I am officially due on 4/5/11, I still say the 7th though! The baby was 0.87cm long! It was amazing to hear the heart beating though. I got back on the 24th for routine tests and bloodwork, and then on the 1st for the results and more things...lol. I got on the 17th to the High Risk doctor. Nothing is wrong though, it is just us being safe because I was born with a cystic hygroma.
Congrads to all the girls with good news!! =) I will post later. TTYS |

hey girls! We should def be banned from googling and watching the discovery or tlc for that matter...lol. We are emotional messes anyways! How's everyone feeling? symptoms? odd feelings? I personally feel a little odd; nothing major. My tummy feels like its stretching...haha, which I guess that it is. I don't have any pains so I am not worried. The tugging feeling isn't there anymore...just an odd feeling of bloatyness. The peeing hasn't slowed down, at all. Staying hydrated is the goal now. I have gotten some morning sickness when I start to get hungry, so I am having a small snack every 3-4 hours so that I never actually feel hungry. That seems to help a lot. I also had a friend recommend Preggie Pops! :) Babiesrus has them, they are great. :) Oh, haha, and I sneezed this morning and could definately feel the grapefruit/watermelon in my tummy! haha!! I laughed, then had to pee....lol...that's all I seem to do. Hope everyones doing great and feeling better! :) |

Elucia: Can't wait to hear about things this evening! Good Luck, feeling sick is always a good sign! :) Samantha: Baby fever is killing everyone...lol. Everyone I know is either just a bit ahead of me or about to pop with their baby. I can't wait until the 18th to tell everyone...I am on the bandwagon, but can't say that I am...lol.
