Still here...how many other Nov gals?

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. 

Hi Nikki, I was thinking of you the other day.  Missed you....

I too think this has been my most difficult pg.  I haven't been very social either!!  Like, I go around ppl and don't want anything to do with them or I just don't want to go be around them to begin with.  I'm wishing it were the middle of Nov!  I'm sooo ready to be done.  It's kind of sad sometimes because I KNOW this is the last time I will ever grow a baby, but I'm really pretty miserable.  I feel so out of touch with everything in my life.  The boys are about the only ones I talk to!  Even DH, I don't really want to be around him much.  I'm ready to have my life and my body back.  I've never had a problem being pg, but this one is definately taking it's toll.  At least she's worth it!  I just can't wait to meet her and see her little face.  The only thing I'm worried about is DS3, he's such a mama's boy, I'm afraid he's going to be very jealous.  Of course, I thought that with the other boys and they both did great with a new baby.  We'll see....

I finally got some things done today.  Put away some of DS3s old clothes and washed DDs newborn and 0-3 mnths clothes and blankets.  Now I just need to get DH to raise the mattress in the crib so I can put the sheets on.  I ordered a custom car seat cover so I can't wait for that.  I really just need to buy diapers.  I think I'm going to wait a couple more weeks to pack my bag.  Oh, I did finally get her coming home outfit.  I think I'll have her pic taken in it to.  My mom and I went out last weekend w/o any kids and she bought tons of baby clothes.  I'll post a pic of her outfit and crib when I get a chance. 

That's all that's new here.......I just can't wait!  I'm just wondering if she'll make her appearance before Thanksgiving or after.  Actually, wouldn't it be funny if Thanksgiving dinner started labor!  I think either way we're going to have dinner at our house, which we've never done.  But, I figure everyone can bring a dish and hopefully someone will do the dishes for me afterwards! 

So......that was longer than I planned!  What about everyone else? 

Hello ladies

I am still here too !  I log on at least once a day but just don't have the energy to write I'm afraid.  I too feel really exhausted this prego (my last - i'm 38 next week).  I also am suffering real breathlessness and bad heartburn which is drivy me CRAZY.  At night my hips/pelvis are so painful its agony to turn over     Anyway thats my winge over !!

Otherwise I am slowly getting organised, have washed all the clothes, today I washed blankets & sheets, the 'to do' list for my hubby to accomplish is posted front and centre on the fridge, but isn't happenning too quickly.    Must get bulky things out of storage in the roof next week so that I can relax and be 'ready'   Haven't gotten as far as buying nappies and wipes yet though...

Had a girl name picked out from when preg with DS2 which I had still wanted for most of this pregnacy, but now am suddennly having second thoughts and am rethinking the whole thing - a lonely experience DH doesn't enjoy the whole name discussing thing at all !!!

The year seems to have gone quickly - I remember when our names kept popping up on the swaying board..   Now I'm 36weeks!  and time seems to be really slowing down now, really dragging ot these last few weeks ...

 I wonder who will be first to POP from Nov gals?

Hey, Sorry I havn't been around much.Have so much going on,started water aerobics 2 x a week,working 2-3 day's a week dr. appts,house cleaning,baseball with the older kids. overwelmed with all the little projects moving 2 yr old to toddler bed and another room with 8 year old finishing the room we are building in the basement for our oldest,frustrated trying to decide what to do with the nursery bedding set I got that I can't find any thing to match.

      Yes, I am tired all the time out of room for baby. Heartburn is an everyday occurance and I am at the uncomphortable part of the pregancy,thank god I have only gained 14 lbs.I am irratable when it comes to nobody helping out with the house,nothing sounds good & I am just lazy with the task of cooking. Six weeks to go is too long to wait. 

  They did another quick ultrasound wed to see baby's position was tranverse but has now turned and she again told me girl and it was as clear as glass sooooooo I guess I will be taking off tags and washing clothes. I still have to go shopping for a few hospital nececities. I am sooooooo done having kids.

Oh here's a tip! After you have the baby when your bleeding for ever, if you get some of the poise underwear(disposable) it is so much easier at the hospital than the netted one's they give you. Their great for afterwards too!

Ill try to be better about staying in touch.

GIDGET

Yeah I'm still around..feeling aweful and tired and nauseated but I am here

I'm still here too! We have everything ready to go, but no baby yet.  Since this is the first for me, I am assuming he will be late.  I too have mostly been lurking , keeping up with everyone that way.  I wish everyone here a speedy and safe delivery.  I can't believe it is almost November!
