I thought I'd start a new pregnancy/baby thread for 2010.

The 2009 thread is here (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=151352).

I took my first test yesterday after a few odd symptoms for a few weeks, and I'm 11 days past due for my cycle.. I plan on taking a few more home tests just to be sure and will be scheduling my first doctors appointment soon. I'm sooooo excited. I'm approximately 5-6 weeks along.

I guess I should post an update since I don't think I've posted anything about my pregnancy since I first announced it. I am 23 weeks along, as of yesterday. We had an ultrasound a few weeks ago and everything, health wise looked perfect on the ultrasound! We also found out we're having another boy! We're very excited as we'd always pictured ourselves raising boys. He's a very energetic little man and kicks a lot, which I LOVE! We've chosen the name Christopher Michael, but we plan to to call him Topher. Nathan is very excited to be having a baby brother and he loves to kiss my belly. :love:

Here's a couple pictures from the ultrasound.

yay for 2010 babies! :D Happy and healthy 9 months to everybody who is pregnant! :)

Congrats, Molucass!!

I looove the name Christopher Michael! :) and his 3d ultrasound pic is SO cute!

I am almost 19 weeks, and my big ultrasound is TOMORROW! I am feeling great, and feeling the baby kick all the time now. Lydia is very excited to be a big sister, and insists that we are having a girl...hopefully we will find out if that's true or not! :)

Hi everyone,

I am 2 months out from my due date (due March 17). I will be 32 weeks on Wednesday. I have my 32 week appt. on Friday, not much to do this appt. so won't have many updates. I should get a picture taken and post it here for everyone. I update more frequently on Facebook, if anyone wants to add me as a friend PM me. We did not and aren't finding out the sex, which makes this interesting. Baby's room is pretty much done, I will just add a few more things after the shower probably. I don't have any more ultrasounds scheduled, just had the one at 12 weeks and 20 weeks. Baby is good, this pregnancy has been overall uneventful. I am thankful and grateful that hubby and I conceived quickly and have had an easy go of things so far. Hope everyone else is doing well.

My sister didn't want to know with either of her pregnancies - her theory was after 9 months, at least one surprise would be nice! Her second pregnancy was pretty miserable, though Emily is a good kid now, so being presented with her baby girl at long last was a happy moment!

My sister's answer, when people said "Do you know what you're having?" was, "Well, I sure hope it's a baby ... " No guesses on gender, I don't hold to any of the "old wives tales" about how a woman carrying being a clue to gender or anything, as I have seen it disproved many, many times! :)

Very cool Karen. Lots of people at work tell me almost matter of factly what I am having based on how I am carrying. I believe it has more to do with body shape of the woman versus anything else. I get a lot of boy based on how I am carrying however my SIL had a boy and she carried completely different than I am. You are right though, healthy human is what we are aiming for.

You look great! I'm going to guess boy... no real reason, just a guess! :) Are you waiting to buy clothes or going with gender neutral? I've noticed the gender neutral stuff is harder to find. Nearly everything is either blue or pink!

Doesn't it get irritating when people do that? My husband and I were in the elevator at the hospital, leaving my ob/gyn's office when I was right around the due date with my daughter. We knew she was a girl, and there was some woman in the elevator who was convinced I was having a boy. Um, no...

I have quite a bit of clothes already as my SIL had a baby in October (a boy) so she has given me his clothes he has outgrown already. Albeit there is a lot of blue clothes I have some that can go for girl too (beige/brown, yellow, red, orange). I have purchased some myself as well, usually yellow, green, beige or white. I bought a little girl outfit this past weekend, I told hubby I needed something definitely girl to bring her home in. I figure everyone will be so excited once we have the baby they will get clothes then, especially if it's a girl since we haven't had a girl in the family since I was born.

It does get irritating, hubby and I have a good laugh about it. I would think knowing the sex and having people tell you differently has got to be worse than us just not knowing. My SIL had a boy and she knew it and so did some others but some would still tell her she was having a girl, ummm she could see his "bits" on the sonogram pic.

The matter of fact tone and 100% sure is what is irritating, I would think if they were that good people would be seeking them out for their thoughts. :D

Oh man that was one thing that really bothered me. People would *tell* me what I was having. Even when I was less than two weeks from delivering Clara, people would argue that I was having a boy because I was "all belly.". My mom had two boys before me, and they were different in every way. I will never understand some things! ;) Even if you've had ten children, it doesn't make you an expert or nor is your way the only way! People have to learn to share, not tell! ;) Ok, I'm done with my rant!

finn's mom
01-26-2010, 06:23 AM
We knew she was a girl, and there was some woman in the elevator who was convinced I was having a boy.

I had a lady at Target literally argue that I was going to be disappointed when I had to take all the pink clothes back. I said "no I won't be, but I'm pretty irritated with you right now, so just leave me alone.". Mind you, this was after about five minutes of just politely trying to end the conversation with her.

And I said I was done, but let me just say that the other thing I hated and still do...when people say, in response to my excitement about being pregnant or being a mom, "oh just wait, let's hear your tune in x weeks/months/years.". I'm not stupid, I get that it's not all sunshine and daisies, but I think I'll always love being a mother! I know I enjoyed pregnancy up until the moment she was born. Ok, now I'm really done ranting!

Wow! On a good note, haha, I'm so excited to meet all the new babies! Talk about a new generation of baby boomers! I know six couples (four if which I'm close enough to that I'll be attending baby showers!) that are expecting this summer! It's awesome!

Ugh! I hate that too. One of my husband's sister's was actually arguing with him about the fact that we wanted/planned another baby. She has one and is DONE. She just can't comprehend couples wanting more than one kid. It really bothered my husband who wants 4-5. (Not saying we'll have 4-5, but that's what he wants. We'll likely have at least 3 though.) I love being a mom and I love being pregnant and my husband loves being a dad and loves when I'm pregnant.

that terrible! Ugh. Isn't it such a personal decision? So whats good for one person totally isn't for another, know what i mean? I'm irritated at her for you, and I don't even know her. haha :D

have you tried ginger for nausea? I didn't have it often but when I did get queasy, I'd suck/chew on a sliver of ginger and it always did the trick. I've heard citrus too but I never tried.

yes, i have tried ginger...straight ginger makes me feel ill, but i have ginger gum and i sip ice cold ginger ale. But the only thing that makes me feel better is to sleep. but with a toddler, that's not possible haha :D

Update on me - I had my 34 week appointment today and my fundal height is measuring 2 weeks ahead. I was measuring 2 weeks ahead at my 32 week appointment as well. Doctor thinks there might be a big one in there. All routine tests (urine and blood pressure) were good. My next appointment will start the vaginal exams so I should know more then if baby is in the ready position, by palpatation it appears baby is head down. I have my first baby shower tomorrow! :D I have gained 29 pounds so far, everyone says I am all baby. The swelling in my feet and ankles is becoming more consistent now especially if I am on my feet a lot. My fingers are a little swollen as well. It won't be long now.

We got to see the baby on an ultrasound yesterday. She or he was moving around, and as soon as they started the ultrasound the baby put its little arm up like it was waving at us. :) Then it stretched its whole body up and was moving its head and legs.
The only disappointing thing is that they didn't listen for the heartbeat.

My new EDD is September 22nd, instead of the 12th like I thought. The little darling was measuring 11w5d. I thought I was 13w1d but I guess I ovulated later than I thought or something.

Its head is towards the left side kinda in the middle of the pic, and the 2 little "nubs" below that are his or her arms, and the other little nub above that is one of his/her legs.

Cori- it's so amazing to be able to see your little baby so small, isn't it? I didn't get to see Nathan until I was around 20 weeks pregnant with him, but I was able to see this baby at around 12 weeks and then again around 20 weeks.

Here's a picture of Nathan helping our midwife listen to the baby a few days ago. Not a very flattering picture of me, but oh well. (It was an evening home visit which is why Nathan is in his pajamas.)

Connor turned 2 months this past Friday (4-23-10). He is starting to smile when he's awake and is more interested in the lights on his bouncy seat. He was 10 lbs 8 oz on the 14th at his follow up appt for his surgery. His 2 month well baby visit is on the 3rd. I have attached a few pics.

Congratulations! Lots of little boys being born lately, it seems!

Here are some new pictures of Tyler. Tyler is crawling around like crazy and pulling herself up into standing positions (using furniture etc). Her vocabulary has gone wild the last few weeks, she is so so funny. She waves hello and buh-bye. And though she is still nursing, she is eating so many different types of solid foods now. Her favourite food is papaya, and her least favourite is green beans. Her two bottom teeth broke through over the weekend, and my poor baby has not enjoyed the process; But she's dealing with it really well.

Excuse the grossness but here is a picture of my belly taken at 37 weeks, and one taken yesterday.

Hang in there, baby will arrive when the time is right! My friends ended up having to be induced with their first child, when they did an ultrasound 6 days after Michelle's initial due date, the ultrasound tech said, "Well, she looks comfy!" to which Michelle said "That's it, time to induce!"

Eviction notice time!

Aw! Hang in there! My first baby came a week before his due date, my second came a week after his.

I just realized I never posted Topher's birth story... oops!
I'll give you a quick rundown of the event. My water broke around 1 pm on May 21 and we called my midwife. She came to check me and said I was already a few cm dilated, but my contractions hadn't started yet, so she left and came back later. It wasn't until around 10 pm (9 hours later) that my contractions finally started, but they were pretty mild. A little after 11 pm they started picking up and around 12:15 I started pushing. He was born at 12:52 am on May 22.

A few pictures from May/early June...
just after he was born; after his second bath; and in the Moby Wrap

And a few more from August/September...

Oh, Kari - Topher is soooo fair, his hair is almost white! What a cutie, but you knew that!

Yeah, Karen, he is really fair. Nathan was/is too. Both boys had very a small amount of white-blonde hair. Nathan's has darkened a little, but it's still pretty light. I bet Topher's hair will do the same.

Here's a recent picture of Nathan. He's being a monkey "ooo ooo aah aah"

It'll be interesting to see how it changes as they grow! We have one family at my church where there are two boys and a baby sister - all three started out with fine golden hair, the younger boy's hair has darkened to light brown, the older boy's is still very light, and baby sister currently has golden blonde hair, but she's only 18 months, so we'll see! Their Dad's hair is coal black, none of the kids got that!

Ah, babies. I just browsed through this and it's all so wonderful watching the babies develop and grow, inside and out! ;) I may go find Clara's thread and update a little on that...or maybe just the 2009 Pregnancy one haha. ;)

No baby... My due date came and went..
I went to the doctor earlier and I am dilated 1 cm, and his head is low in my pelvis. So all the walking I have been doing lately has made some progress.. But I'm still not having any contractions or other symptoms that it will be soon.
If I don't go in to labor by next Wednesday I have to be induced that day.. The hospital I am delivering at doesn't let you go past 41 weeks. I am praying, hoping, and keeping everything crossed that I go before then because I really don't want to be induced.

I just want him to come out!

Just for the record, don't stress too much if you have to be induced. I was induced twice. It really wasn't that bad. That said, I know you don't want to wait until Wednesday.

We'll be praying for you, keep walking! And this is not scientifically proven, but try tea with raspberry leaves in it, that is supposed to help!

time is almost here... Nov 20-22nd..

and I´m scared beyond reason... I´ve been dreaming that today is the day.. each day for the last week..

I´m scared... and I´ve already been through it once.. but this time seems scarier.. also adding up the circumstances... I just don´t want to face it alone I think...(despite I´m not alone alone, but still)...

I soooo need to relax...

My little guy turned 1 on 2-23. He is walking now and getting into everything. He was 21 lbs and 30 inches at his appt 1 week ago. He says a few words but mostly babbles on in his own language. This past year has flown by and it's hard to see my little baby growing up. I know there is so much more fun to come so I am excited for that.

We had a friend of ours take some pictures a couple of weeks ago.
