Alice, the ultrasound went great! Her growth has slowed down and they're no longer worried that she's going to big. She was 7lbs 5oz and they're anticipating that she'll be around 8lbs or so at birth. They were able to change the day, so we will be having her March 12th (this Saturday) at 7:30am. But we have to be at the hospital at 5:30am. Yawn!! That's too early! Plus I can't eat anything past midnight and I have to shower with this skin cleanser so I don't get an infection. So much fun (not). lol. But I can't believe how soon it is! eek!! No, my bag still isn't completely packed. lol. But it's mostly just last min things to throw in, like hairbrush, slippers, etc. Awe, so fun! I love baby babbles!! I'm sure she was singing along with you. :) Being a stay at home mom has it's perks but it also can be very hard. I was a stay at home mom till Averie was about 3 and Amaelie was 6 months and though it was rewarding, I was def ready when I got a part time job. Sometimes getting to talk to grown ups makes all the difference. lol.

Jada, I'm still praying for you and your sweet growing babe!! Spotting can be normal esp if it's brown. I know how hard it is not to worry though. At 5 weeks with my second daughter I woke up to my sheets soaked in blood. I was so scared I was going to lose her, and I bled clots and blood consistantly till about 20 weeks. I had an SCH, but it thankfully resolved itself. I will be praying that whatever the reason for the spotting (baby settling in for the long haul?) it resolves itself quickly! Let us know how the ultrasound goes! <3

Nikolina, hope all is well! We're getting close!! Can't wait for your post that baby is here!! :)

Emmy, hope all is going well with your pregnancy. Miss seeing your posts here! <3

Missy,

Hi! Wow you are SO close :) Glad everything is falling into place and I know everything will go just fine. You probably won't get much sleep Friday night anyways, lol!! Can't wait to hear how it goes.

Alice,

How are things going today? Any tips for success??

Nikolina,

How are you feeling? Can't wait to hear what you had and how things go.

Emmy,

I never said congrats, but I do hope all is well!

AFM, went in for another ultrasound today and there is for sure one and the little hb was going at 131. We are hoping to hear it soon! My clinic is still seeing me weekly so I go back in a week from today for the next scan. In terms of the spotting we really aren't sure, but they are running some cultures in case I need to take anything. Thank you ladies for sticking around and being so supportive, it means so much!!

Jada

Hi sweet ladies!

Jada, hun, I'm praying for you each day!!! Even though spotting is common in early pregnancy, I know how scary it is at this stage! Thank goodness that they are checking you so regularly! It's hard to keep your sanity otherwise... Keep us posted!!! I'm crossing my fingers tightly that the spotting may soon go away, so you can relax and enjoy your pregnancy without worries!!!

OMG, Missytwoshoes, this Saturday your girl will be here!!!!! I'm sooo happy and excited for you!!!!! :-) I think Jada has a good point on the early wake up, will you be able to sleep before such a major event? It must be weird to know exactly when she will be here. I wonder what that feels like. I found it hard not to know when the baby was coming, I kept trying to figure it out interpreting all kinds of 'signs', lol :-) Thank you for your couraging (is that not a word?) words, I guess you have a point about being happy to be able to talk to adults as a change :-) In case we wouldn't speak anymore before Saturday: GOOD LUCK!!!!!! And enjoy your baby girl!!!! :-)

Nikolina, are you doing okay? Finally slowing down? :-) Is baby all set for its arrival? :-) And are you? :-)

Emmy, thinking of you and praying for you!!!!!

AFM, I just tried to feed Anna some milk mush (?), its milk with powder based on rice with a vanilla flavor. She got hysterical. Off course, she didn't take one bite :-p It took me about an hour to calm her down :-s She cried (during and afterwards) and at some point I just started crying along with her. What a mess. Maybe she's just not ready for it yet (I wanted to try and see if it would help her reflux). I think I'll wait a few days before trying again. Or maybe even longer. I don't know. For me, that's a common feeling attached to motherhood: not exactly knowing what you're doing or what you're supposed to be doing :-s Fortunately it works out most of the time :-p

Lots of love!!

Alice

Hi Ladies,

I hope you don't mind me joining this group. I just MC last Feb 17 at 11 weeks, 5 days - my first pg after ttc for 8 years. I am waiting for AF so I can TTC my rainbow,. sending hugs and baby dust to all :)

Hi ladies! And welcome Van:)

Alice, I appreciate the prayers very much, with the right people behind you and the man upstairs covering me I am feeling good! As long as I don't see red I am going to trust and believe that all is well...Next scan is next Tuesday, can't wait to see that little heartbeat!! How are things going with you? Sorry about the feeding crisis. I can imagine I will have many tears along with the baby too, so no worries :)

Missy, You all packed now?! I thought about you this morning while I was getting ready for work, so excited for you! How are your other two doing? Are they ready and excited?

Nikolina, thinking of you!

Emmy, same, hope you check in with us soon :)

AFM, I am feeling ok. Went to try on and get my maternity military uniforms today!! The pants are great and comfy, the top is like a tent...LOL! We are 7+4 today, think my body is still adjusting a bit? But not complaining at all, just grateful for the blessing!!
