Hey ladies omg these baby pictures!!!
Congratulations neomasie!! So beautiful
Did everyone have girls after dragonfly baby boy??
AFM: Doing great got sick again in 1 months time which ugh just miserable. I did get my results back. And confirm TS21. We are ok no tears this time. I think i have finally came to accept what comes. Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. Cant wait to see what the new years brings (besides our babies)!!! I am almost at my half way mark!!!!!!

Lindasy, it was a very cute reveal. Congrats!
Beaut1ful, i am glad you are ok with everything and just focusing on a healthy baby and pregnancy and delivery. It has to be challenging but it will all work out. I cant believe you have hit the halfway mark!

Dh was so shocked, he thought I had thrown in the towel because I had stopped obsessing about testing lol.

@beautiful sounds like you and your husband are in a good place mentally with TS21. When you said you were almost at the half way mark I just realized your only 10 days ahead of me!! Thats exciting!! I should get to follow you all the way to the birth of your little man before my little girl is born!!!

Thank you @Rooroo917 she’s very easy on the eyes which makes those late night feeds and sleepless nights more tolerable. Congrats on hitting 18 weeks, you’re getting so close and almost over night it seems!

Thank you @Kelliria it’s been a rollercoaster of a few weeks but I. So glad we are on the other side with our little ones. Your Reece is adorable and your girls together is just precious!

Congratulations Neomasie - she's so beautiful!
I've been offline a lot too. Phoebe is still so small and wiggly - hard to learn to nurse. After two weeks, it's just starting to not hurt so much and even then, we're still having to supplement at least 2x in a 24 hr period. I've ordered some goat's rue and some fenugreek to take to increase my supply. Hopefully we'll be able to phase out those two bottles. She's so cute though. I'm SOO in love, I don't even mind the no-sleeping barely at all thing. I'm sure it'll be tougher when I get closer to actually going back to work.
Congrats to the new moms and new moms-to-be! This has been such a great group. I'm looking forward to the next batch of babies.
@beautiful - I'm sure the TS21 diagnosis is difficult, but I'm sure you are going to love your cute little bundle so much.

Hi @calvingirl! Congrats on the arrival of Phoebe. Trying to go bald and catch up on all posts and pics, but if you could nudge me in the right direction of a pic of little phoebe, I’d appreciate it.

Yeah breastfeeding is hard work. We’re 7 weeks in and have a pretty good grasp on it, but some days I’m still ready to throw in the towel and just move to pumping exclusively. I’m still trying to learn her queues and understand when she’s really done and not just taking a break or when she’s still hungry VS just wanting to suck or is tired. She has her moments, especially during night feeds where she’s just fussing at the breast and I’m not sure what she wants. But the moments in between when we’ve got it all down and figured out, I love breastfeeding so much.

Hang in there and good luck. You’re doing your best. That plus ensuring she’s fed regardless of the method, is all that matters. Have you tried power pumping to increase supply? Apologies if I missed something

I love that all you mommies with new bundles are still checking in on here. It really warms my heart. It also reminds me of all the things I forgot since my last one was born 10years ago. I'm so excited for this! I already feel more prepared now than I ever have been before just hearing about how you ladies are doing. Thank you for that!

Oh Neomasie and skellynet190 hug3 congratulations to you too. Hope all is well with everyone. Happy New year to everyone for later! Nancy is now 5.5 weeks going so fast she's huge now almost 11 pounds. I will catch up again with everyone once the kids are back at school. Love to you all

@lakarmw oh wow!!! 11pds already!!! She really has gotten big and in no time! And she is cuter than ever!! Thank you so much for letting us know how shes doing!!
