Hi All.

@bettyboop, only 8 weeks? Wow time does fly. I'm excited for you and very happy that is going well.

I still come by and check too see if there are any updates.

My little Olivia is now 4-months-old and I'm starting to think that maybe we should try for #2.

I hope everyone else is doing amazing!

Hi ladies!

Sorry I haven't been around in a very long time, but since Titus was born in September it feels like I've been in a time warp. He turned 5 months Wednesday, and is such a blessing to our family!

Praying4ALil1 - 4 months old...isn't it amazing how fast they grow? Are you going to try again?

bettyboopta2 - how are you? Any signs of labor yet? Do you have a name picked out for your little girl? Hope you're doing well. I know the last few weeks for me I was just really tired and having a hard time getting a good nights' sleep.

Zuberi - where are you? How are you? I've been praying and thinking of you and hoping all is well. Check in if you can.

Thumbwalker14 - how are you? Did you wind up being pregnant again? I've had recurring miscarriages, too. It's a hard thing to go through. Hope your appointment with the specialist bore fruit for you.

Afm - like I said, Titus just turned 5 months, and my AF is almost back to normal, so we're trying again. There's 8 years between Titus and our DD, and 16 yrs between him and our oldest, so we'd really like the Lord to bless us with at least one more so they can grow up together. (Although I'd be willing to have more, if He so chooses.) It's a busy, exciting time for our family and stressful too, to be honest. Hope everyone is well.

Hi everyone,

12 more days! We have a name picked, bags ready, almost everything else done.
Baby has been down & engaged for several wks, have been having false contractions on & off that are quite painful, pressure is horrible & moving most difficult right now. Dr on Mon who is talking about doing a sweep.
We also ended up making things legal & having a minister do our vows on St Paddy's Day!
Hope everyone else is well :-)

Hi,
Just an update. I went into labour Thursday at 3:00am. non stop contractions all day, but 7-10mins apart. Called hospital 3 times (the last being 10:40pm that night; they kept telling me to wait til they were 3-4 mins apart. After getting off the phone the last time, the contractions were sooo strong that we decided to leave for the hospital anyway.
I walked into the kitchen & was heading back down the hall when my water broke explosively. Called for hubby who is an RN. He jumped up & said we're going now, I then ended up in the bathroom on all 4's telling him that the baby was coming. He called 911.
Needless to say baby was born within 10mins of the water breaking, no one had arrived yet & hubby had to deliver her.
We were taken to the closest hospital, then transferred to the birthing hospital in the middle of the night & released Saturday. We are both doing well, although hubby & I are still in shock, lol.
Arya Shae was born a wk early on March 26/15 at 11:19pm weighing 8lbs3oz.

Hope everyone else is great. I miss this list <3

@bettyboop, congratulations! What a wonderful if chaotic birth story. Think about it - your baby was delivered by your hubby/her dad! what better way to come into this world! March 26th is my hubby's birthday - I predict your little Arya will be a really sweet girl. What a beautiful name too.

Congratulations again. Best of luck to you! Keep in touch.

Hi all

Wow we've all been busy! I took some time out rececca73 sold my house and just bought another so been super busy packing up and had an appointment to start ivf on 2 nd April BUT we had some very exciting news that in the hustle n bustle of all this somehow we managed to get pregnant. Just 5 weeks and on progesterone pessaries ( due to recurrant miscarriage)

Glad everyone doing ok. Congrats bettyboop that's an amazing story. So pleased for you.

Might be a while til I can get back to update you all with moving but feeling ok, a tad tired obviously but ok. Felt a tad sick today so might be the progesterone kicking in and my bbs are soooooooooo sore I'm wearing a bra at night.

Good luck everyone still trying and all the best xxx

Life is precious

H mama - glad to hear you and your little one are doing well. I always check this post to see if anyone checks in. I'm glad you did! My Olivia is going to 18 months the 18th so I agree - time is flying by. We are trying for #2 but not having much luck yet. Other than that all is well. How's everyone else doing?
