How are you, November mommies?

Sedona~ — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 06:23:31 GMT

Just wanted to check in & see how everyone & the babies are. I had my DD on Dec 6th. I posted in birth announcements if anyone wants to read. Hope all is well and you are all having a great New Year with your little ones!

Weekly progress reports/ check in's. Anyone game?

gidget1976 — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 15:55:55 GMT

So I thought that it might be fun to keep tab's on everyone and their progress.We are all rounding the corner and due dates fast approaching.

Yesterday I started my weekly appt's.They did a strep B test and checked my cervix,told her not to bother I have never made any progress before labor and always go late.She check and said a fingertip.My blood pressure is also high 138/80 , 2nd time in the 130's first time that high,weight is the same as last week.I am thinking about starting the evening primrose oil to help dialate and get thing prepared for labor. I don't want to induce but if I can shorten time in labor the better. Hope everone waiting in the wings for D-Day is having an uneventful last trimester! Good Luck to all, Hope to hear from everone soon.

Sedona~ — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 05:34:45 GMT

Come on baby, you can come out a little early!!! I can't go another 4 weeks. Maybe 2!

Its November

My Awesome Foursome — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 02:43:16 GMT

Good Luck to all the ladies due in Nov 08...

I'll be thinking of you all and waiting to hear all your birth announcements

Going home outfit?

Sedona~ — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 07:21:23 GMT

Do you know what you're going to put your baby in for going home from the hospital? I'm obsessing about it. I look at all the outfits I have already and am just not sure I have "the one" yet. I'll probably end up going with a pink blanket sleeper with hearts all over it. I'd really like to put her in something really special, though, since this is our last baby. I'm just not sure. Also, I'm taking a blanket to the hospital I think for her picture. DS2, they put the hospital blanket (white with the pink and blue stripes) under him for the "background". DS3, they had this hideous paper with blue, green and pink splotchy circles all over it. So this time, I thought I'd bring my own background! Who knows what they'll have this time.

Anyway, back to the outfit. Who's gonna have baby wear the cap they give? I never have, and I think I'll put a headband/bow on her. Also, I made the sweetest little bracelet I think I'll put on for a few minutes.

Still here...how many other Nov gals?

preciouspink — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 01:12:58 GMT

Hi everyone. I am still here and I'm sorry I haven't been very chatty. This pregnancy has proven to be the most difficult of all of them and I guess I just haven't been in a very social mood... I feel like I am getting a second wind now though as it draws closer to the due date. I feel stronger knowing that that she is due in only a few weeks and am getting very excited to meet our princess.

I hope everyone else is doing well and wish everyone a safe and beautiful labour to welcome their new little one into the world.

Sedona~ — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 08:09:49 GMT

I just wanted to say HEY and see how you're doing and feeling. It's almost time! I think a lot of Nov girls have kind of disappeared. I noticed preciouspink who used to be on quite a bit hasn't been on in a month. I hardly post here cause no one's ever here. Anyway....I'm really excited to not be pg anymore, but kind of sad when I think about it being my last! I love being pg. This time, I'm soooo tired. I can't get thru the day without a nap. How are you feeling?

Was wondering???

AbbysMum — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 10:43:30 GMT

If it would be possible to fit one more fat lady in lol....I am being induced between 37-38weeks which puts me now in November!

Thanks!!!

newcomers to the board (as of 7/20)-please stop here.....

Sedona~ — Sat, 07 Jun 2008 23:57:52 GMT

You can exchange PMs, emails or phone #s with your buddy if you want. Your buddy will let us all know when you go into labor, or if you have any other news to share and you can't get it to us.

Happy and Healthy pregnancies to us all!!!

Stressing over name...need opinions

Kplus2 — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 01:06:20 GMT

Hi Girls,

I am expecting my second son at the end of November and we still don't have a name. My husband really likes the name Cannon. I like it a little bit but worry that everyone will think it is weird. I really like the name Tyler but my husband thinks the name is too common. What do you guys think of the name Cannon? I wanted to name my first son Tyler as well but never did. I don't know if I will have another boy after this so I would like to use the name somehow. Also, my husband really wants the middle name to be Micheal. My husbands middle name is Micheal however it is also my father-in-law's name. I really don't want people thinking I am naming my son after my father in law. My husband keeps saying that it is after him but I know people won't think that. I just don't want my dad's feelings to be hurt. So I would love to know your opinion about our name options and the whole middle name debate. Thanks!!

3 hour GTT

Sedona~ — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 02:42:25 GMT

So I had to take the 3 hour glucose tolerance test today. First, when I called to make an appt yesterday, they wanted me to come in at 7---can't do it. We live 40 min away from the lab and I had to drop the boys off at school a little before 8. So, she said I could come in at 8:30. Drop DS3 off at my mom's so I didn't have to chase after him for 3+ hours!

I get to the lab, wait 20 min, get my blood taken then drink the drink. Fruit punch one really isn't as bad as the orange! About 20 min later in the waiting room, I'm sweating and feel like I'm seriously going to throw up. Keep in mind, I was fasting since last night. So, that and the huge dose of sugar, I couldn't take it. I lay down for an hour and a half. I was hoping to look thru the baby name book the whole time I was there, but I only looked the last hour. Didn't find a name!!! The test stinks and I feel bad for anyone who has to take it.

I couldn't wait to get my butt out of there---hope I don't hear from the doc's office anytime soon! Then I went to eat and picked up my copy of Sex and the City and a new movie for DS3.

That was my day. I left my house at 7:30 and didn't get home til after 1. What a day!!!

November girls....what do you have done?

Sedona~ — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 08:13:48 GMT

So, I have nothing "ready" for baby yet. We have DS3s crib, I just haven't put the bedding on, haven't washed clothes, don't have too many blankets yet so I need to work on that. We do have DS3s baby carseat, but I'm working on getting a pink one.

I'm bored and was just wondering if anyone has finished the nursery, bought all the important stuff. ??

meesyxx — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 04:51:21 GMT

Not much action on this board of late but I guess that's becuase we are all in that criusy 2nd trimester ! No more sickness, headaches, not too tired, getting used to big swollen boobs, stomach growing (scarily fast - can it grow much more?) and feeeling baby really starting to dance now

Can't believe we will soon head into the third trimester (is that about 28weeks?). This is just flying by !!!

Anyone organising bedrooms, clothes etc yet ?

GTT blood test at 26weeks for me as had Gest diab with 2nd preg. I was only borderline so hoping not to have it this time. Trying to be really good diet wise in preparation but am completely failing. Craved fruit early in this preg but am now wanting Maccas and cakes all the time

Hope everyone is happy and well

Due Date Buddies update......

Sedona~ — Sun, 03 Aug 2008 07:17:19 GMT

I have noticed we have a few girls who haven't posted on the site in a while. I have also realized that I paired some girls up with buddies who didn't request it--sorry, I wasn't thinking, I just went off of the detail list at the top. So......if you haven't had contact with your buddy and would like to be paired with someone else, please let me know. We have a few new ladies so I'll see what I can do. I'm so sorry--but I'm pregnant and confused, that's my excuse!!!!

nursing cover

Sedona~ — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 02:08:56 GMT

I made my own nursing cover!!!! I didn't even know they existed until last fall when a football mom on my son's team was using one. I thought it was genius---but did not want to pay $30+ on one, even though I would get my money's worth. So, I do not sew. I own this tiny little machine but it's crap and I don't know how to use it anyway. A while ago, I bought stitch witch to make new placemats. I got fabric for $1/yd at Walmart. I got the D rings for .78. I was so excited. Now I'm working on hair bows!

Good luck tomorrow, Summerlove!

Sedona~ — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 18:43:21 GMT

Just wanted to send you pink dust, good luck wishes and OPEN LEG vibes!!! I bet it's a girl cause baby is soooo stubborn. Hope they can get the measurements they need, too. I would say eat a calming food or drink, but I don't know what that is (besides wine, maybe ). Best of luck and keep us posted!!! Hope you hear PINK

My Ultrasound.......

Sedona~ — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 02:53:00 GMT

Sorry it took me so long, was hanging out at my mom's in the pool....

It's a..............

GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe it!!!!

I did have the tech write it in a card and seal the envelope. DH wanted the card as soon as we were outside. I hesitated, but gave it to him. I then got in my truck and all of the sudden, the card is right in front of me open

It's a Girl!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!

That's what he wrote!

I had to go back in and ask about something, and he was standing up front still. I told him, my husband opened the card already and he wants to know if you're screwing with us. He said very seriously, NO. He said he really wanted to tell us during the u/s (he asked me during and right after) so it could be on the DVD. I was just too scared, I did not want to hear if it was a boy. I looked at the DVD and he went by it really quick, even though I turned my head. But, I totally trust him. He's done my last 2 boys' u/s so I completely have faith in his expertise! Which is nice because I don't want to have to wonder and not believe for the next few months! I am sooooooooo happy, my family is finally complete (I told my mom DH probably made his vasectomy appt already!). He said it can't be his, he doesn't make girls. I said, we can have a test in 4 months, buddy! She's all yours!!!! I didn't go shopping yet, but my mom bought about a dozen outfits/onesies a while ago.

So, that's my story!!! Thank you all so much for your good thought, girls vibes and pink dust. I think that really helped!!!!! Now to think of a name.....
