So is there dust flying where darling boyfriend use to be:?:?:?

[Corinna]

I would loove to be a fly on the wall for tommorrows dinner with the other parents.

Gosh Kim. So much to take in for both of you! She is due three days after my Robyn (Christiansmommy) and I think the day before Sara Loves Her Tinky (I think she is due on the 28th). There will be a population explosion here on PT this summer. I am glad you got her to smile. I think this is going to be a turning point in your relationship.

OMG 7 MONTHS!! Pam is right... She is due the day before me.. But I am OBVIOUSLY pregnant... and the baby flips and turns all the time..

I really feel like this is going to make you guys closer. And thank GOD it isn't twins.... This thread has been an amazing turn of events in every way. She will be in my prayers. Too bad you couldn't find out what the baby is... then you can go SHOPPING!!!

[Laura's Babies]

I tell you one thing, she was in some mighty serious denial to think for a second that the baby moving was indigestion.. By this time, that little thing was stretching, kicking, doing flips and stuff, especially at night when she was trying to sleep!

JUNE? Hay! That shower better get in the works asap! Shucks, and I have to go to work next week and will be gone for 4 weeks.... DOG GONE! Maybe you can do it in MAY and I will be home... I am SOooooo excited for you Kim. This opens another whole new world to you, a whole new "role", new shoes to fill... So EXCITING! I am so happy I could just dance, dance, dance!

[chrangharris]

Wow Kim! What a day for you guys! I'm sure you are all in shock and have a ton of different emotions going on- I know I do and I was planning on a baby! The U/S pictures are amazing! Congratulations and good luck with dealing/sorting everything out!

[jazzcat]

WOWZA! What a rollercoaster ride this thread is. I've been gone all day and now I sit down to read this. First I fell off my seat at the two heartbeats. Once I climbed back up and read on to discover she is 7 months along with just one I had to stop to pick my chin up off the desk. WOW!!!! Things are moving quickly here!

If it affected me this way I can't imagine how you guys must feel.

[sandragonfly]

yikes..

denial - you didn't know, two heartbeats to seven months.. jeez. at least something took your grandjaime into a better path of life, sooner than later - new june girl, think it as must be for a reason.

warm thoughts for everyone and for the baby too! and congrats grandkim.

(I'd love to have twins someday)

7 MONTHS?!?! And she didn't know? Gosh, she must have been in serious denial. Wouldn't it be obvious by now? Wasn't she feeling tired/sick at the beginning of pregnancy? Didn't she notice the disappearance of periods? Couldn't she FEEL the baby? Notice the greater food cravings? Had to go to the bathroom more often...?

I've never been pregnant, but I have a feeling the signs kick in much sooner than that. Especially if she's been having sex...how wouldn't the pregnancy thought have hit her? I think what shocked me more than the fact that she's pregnant is that in 7 months, she DIDN'T KNOW! How? She must have had a feeling at least. I can't believe she wouldn't have had a feeling, knowing she's been involved with her boyfriend, and that her body and feelings were suddenly changing. Wow.

What is the reaction of her father? Brother and sister? Are they beginning to adjust to the idea that they're going to be grandpa, uncle, and aunt? He he he. What about your stepdaughter? How is she feeling about this? She has ONLY 2 more months before she becomes a MOMMY!

But, thank God its just one little baby. Congrats grandma. This is your first time having an infant in the house, right? You're going to have FUN once you get over the shock and dismay. No matter what the situation, babies are completely innocent, beautiful, a miracle from God, and pure joy.

[Glacier]

Congratulations! I hope once the shock wears off that you will all be able to celebrate the new addition to your family!

It sounds like your step-daughter was in major denial, but it is actually quite possible for a woman to be well along in a pregnancy and not know it. I used to work with a young woman who it happened to. A nurse called me from the hospital telling me that she was asking for me to come in the delivery room with her. I told her she had the wrong number! I had seen the girl a few days before. She had gained weight, but not in a way that made her look pregnant. She looked healthy as she had needed to gain a few pounds! After some explaining from the nurse, I drove to the hospital and was present for the birth of a beautiful, healthy 6 pound baby girl! (who was adopted by a couple who had been waiting a decade for her!) The nurse told us that at least once a month a woman came in thinking she had appendisitis or some major stomach problem and left with an infant!

Couldn't have said it better... , I don't understand this either..; !
I keep wondering why she didn' take any "precautions"

To late to feel sorry now. The baby is on it's way, so better get ready hey. I hope everything goes smoothly for her!!

Prayers and thoughts on the way for you my friend. And your step daughter.

[Corinna]

How is grandpa taking this all? Does he now realize you know what your talking about due to the fact you were a teen girl at one time. II'm getting the feeling BF is going to pull you cheated on me and it's not mine routine on your daughter grab a blood test as soome as possible. If your going to try to get him to help support the baby.

[krazyaboutkatz]

Kim, Wow! I can't believe that she's this far along. I'm glad that it's only one baby because you'll have your hands full as it is. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way. I hope that everything goes well and that she has a healthy baby.

[trayi52]

Wow! Kim just heard the news! This is wonderful! You, Corinna, and me are all having grandbabies. I say we are all very lucky women.

We are all going to do just fine as grandmommys. Kim, you will love it!

Congratulations to you and your hubby on becoming grandparents!!
