Hello Ladies,

I wanted to check in to see how everybody made it through this last snow storm. In Ohio, we had ice fall for 9 hours and then some areas received as much as 15" of snow mixed in together. Wow, what a storm ... the meterologist says we can possible expect another big storm on Monday and Tuesday.

Things seem to be going well here with me and the little one. I am starting to feel he/she move around a lot now. Before it seems liked every now and then but now it is really noticable.

How are things with you ladies?

Hello Ladies,

I had my 19 week appointment today and they were running over 2 hours behind. It was so funny as this is the first appointment my husband has been to at this OB's office, he went to all of them at the RE's office. But, he was thoroughly irritated because of the wait, which I thought was very funny because these are the frustrations that I always have when I go to the doctors office. I told him now you get to see my experiences at the OB office :lol: !

We made our BIG ultrasound appointment for next Monday, Feb 9th to find out what sex we are having. I am so very excited. I tried to get them to do it today but they wouldn't do it :x . Well, I am glad my baby is doing well anyways.

How is everyone else doing out there?

Hi all...sorry I haven't posted in a while. Life has been busy. Things are going pretty well with me. Still having the usual growing pains and pants are definitely getting tight. Using the bella band for my non-maternity pants now all the time and I got some maternity pants over the weekend, so that is good.

I felt the baby move today for the first time! Well, I'm pretty sure it was the baby! lol It was just different than any other feeling..and it kept happening all afternoon, off and on. Definitely a cool feeling. Hope to feel more tomorrow.

We have our "big" ultrasound next Wednesday. All along I've said I don't want to know what the sex is...but I think I'm changing my mind! DH said he doesn't care if we find out as he doesn't believe it anyway. He looks at it more as an educated guess. lol So I'm thinking maybe we'll let them give us their educated guess and then just not tell anyone else that we found out. We'll see how I'm feeling a week from now! Still time for me to change my mind 15 times (gotta love preggers hormones!).

Hope you all are doing well!

Hey Everybody!
Looks like we may be able to say "he or she" for several babies this week. Very exciting!!! I've advanced BIG TIME over the past week. The boys are kicking up a storm and my tummy has gotten alot bigger since last week. I'm starting to register at Target for my shower which is on March 21st. The bedskirts that I had made should be finished this week. Things are moving along. What's new with everyone????

Hello Ladies,

That is exciting news Liz! Today is the BIG day for us as we are going to have our ultrasound this afternoon to find out the sex of our baby. We are so excited we could barely stand it this weekend. So I hope the baby cooperates this afternoon :lol: !

I have been thinking of what date would be good to have my baby shower and I am thinking some time in April or May. We will register this weekend once we find out what we are having. I think I will register at Target & Babies R us. I can't believe how the time is flying now. Well, I should say some days it seems like so far away but then when I look up again several weeks have already past.

How is everyone else doing out there?

Hello Ladies,

I write to you with great sadness and tears. I went in for my 20th week u/s and they found no heartbeat. I have to be induced tomorrow to give birth to our baby girl. I wish all of you good luck. But, I just can't stay with you as it is too painful :cry: ,

Love Angela

angela, I am so so sorry. I don't understand. How in the world can that happen at 20 weeks? Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Wish I was there to give you a hug.

Liz,

yes it has been quiet. i am doing fine and am really enjoying this pregnancy. i am 23 weeks and getting BIGGER, which is great, i love it AND we found out it's going to be a little girl. my son doesn't really care, but i think it will be great for him since he already 5 and he'll be able to be a really good big brother.

i have another doctor's visit next week, but so far they have not really done much. it seems like there were more tests when i was pregnant 6 years ago. hm, ...

hope all is well with everyone.
