2009 Pregnancy/baby thread

What is it with these breech babies! We got us some lazy ones here.

Here is my little pumpkin. She's already 2 weeks old today!

Lyra and Laura are adorable!

Awww, love the Laura with Beenie and with Frankie pictures, and the last one is just precious! It's funny, we almost even get to see her eyes in one of them!

Awww, Laura is so sweet! And she already has such lovely dark hair. It looks like she is smiling in the last picture! I'm glad to see that the dogs look like they are enjoying their new little sister!

Now for the bad news -- dr says it feels like she may be breach. She doesn't know for sure, it's hard to tell at this stage, but she said give it another two weeks and she will probably get a better feel. If she still suspects breach position, she'll send me in for an ultrasound. I'm going to start putting cold things up high right now just incase lol. Honestly I don't think she is breach -- I swear I can feel the position she is in and I'm sure it's her feet that keep kicking me in the ribs, not hands. I can actually reach into my skin and grab hold of them and they feel like feet. But at the same time, she moves around in there so much I wouldn't be surprised if she flipped herself overnight and now she just may be breach. Who knows.

Does your baby ever get the hiccups? I could tell Lyra was head down because she got the hiccups 4 or 5 times a day and they always felt really low.

Oh, Carmen, she's gotten even prettier! I can't believe it's been two weeks already. Good grief!

I had a doctor's appointment this morning, and Clara is still in a good position for delivery, but nothing has changed. I'm not dilated at all and she's not dropped. We have an appointment on her due date (Monday), and our normal appointment scheduled for Thursday, just in case she's not here, yet. If she doesn't come by then, we'll schedule an appointment to induce her on Friday, August 21. So, that's our news!

Aww what cute pictures.

Omg! I never thought of that, she always gets the hiccups and they are always low. Interesting, maybe she is in the right position then! I certainly hope so!

Laura looks so sweet!! So adorable! How have the pets been doing with her?

Oh Carmen she's adorable! I haven't been around too much lately (casing my TODDLER ) so this is the first I've seen of her. I love that she has a little smile on her face

[Husky_mom]

Lyra is such a happy baby... reminds me of Hannah...

come to think all PT babies are so happy...

and she´s so big now.. love her smile.. nice idea what Karen suggested.. pretty cool...

and Laura.. Oh my.. that baby smile is so cute.. lol... awesome when you catch them at that age smiling isn´t it...

love the pics with the pooches... so cute!

[finn's mom]

Met the pediatrician today, I like him! So, that's one more thing we don't have to worry about! I hope she gets here sometime next week and doesn't have to be induced!

[finn's mom]

Well, today is Clara's due date, but so far, she's pretty content. I am a little nervous that she might have moved, but it's so hard to tell! I have an appointment today at 3:30, so we'll see if either of us have changed at all. I am still feeling great, though, so as long as that's the case, she can take her time.

My parents are to arrive Thursday night! I am so excited to see them both!

Everything's ready for our girl, now we just need her!

[beeniesmom]

So, how did the appointment go?
How are you feeling?

[finn's mom]

Well, nothing's changed! I still haven't had any contractions, still not dilated, she's not dropped. My next appointment is Thursday at 4, and we will check out her position and my progress and decide whether we'll go in to start the induction Thursday night or Friday morning. Hoping she comes of her own accord between now and then, though!

I'm feeling awesome, no problems at all sleeping or getting around or anything, so I'm ok with her being late. I'll definitely keep you guys posted! If you don't hear anything on Thursday, you can assume she's here and I'm just unable to get to the computer to update! I will write on this thread before going in on Thursday if she's still not here!

[Pembroke_Corgi]

Glad you are still feeling comfortable- I guess that must make waiting for Clara to make her appearance easier. I keep checking this thread when I can for updates as it's any time now, and I'm excited to see another PT baby.

Speaking of which, I hope we get some more pictures of other PT babies soon!
