~Babies due 2013!~

[leorira11]

Christy - I have an early anatomy scan on Thursday (here in Israel, we do 2 - one at 15-17 weeks and one at 22-24 weeks) -- so hopefully we'll know then! I'm so excited to find out! I don't care at all, but I'm dying to know!

[kynlee]

Annashope- You look Great I cant wait till my bumps that big How did you BBQ shower go?

Leora- Good Luck Thursday hopefully they can tell what he/she is by then So exciting to find out and what a cute outfit for your rainbow baby

[Lauren319]

Hi guys!

Leora - SO CUTE! I can't wait to find out the sex. Maybe the fact that you got pink means it's mother's intuition?!

Kyn - I used so much lotion with the doppler. I think it's either broken or I'm over it. I can't even deal.

Anna - I'm trying to find a recent pic! You look adorbs.

I think I attached a couple pics. It's from a couple of weeks ago, so naturally I'm even bigger. And believe me, you can tell that I'm getting bigger by the day...everyone comments on it, which is lovely btw. I'm still looking for a house to move into before the babies arrive. I think we gave up on buying and are looking into renting. I also still don't have a baby nurse. I've never been this stressed in my life. It's seriously unhealthy. I'm so sorry I don't post often. I do read often though...in between phone calls and open houses and crying and throwing fits.

Hi girls

Thank you everyone for your kind words about the belly pic

Lauren you look great!! Is your belly getting heavy? Mine is especially in the evenings when I am tired and the baby is soooooo low now his head is pressed against my groin bone and it aches!!!! Oh but I am loving every moment daydreaming about this little guy. I have been calling him Nick so I think it will probably stick but we will see

Leora I can't wait to hear about your ultrasound tomorrow and maybe the gender

Kynlee how are you

So we got a 3d u/s and it was so much fun!!!! Tomorrow is the next "real" ultrasound so naturally I am nervous and praying my cervix is the same. Although I know it has been shortening 1/2 cm every 2 week and last time we were at 2cm so it its less tomorrow we will be discussing steroid shots and such. Anyways I will update tomorrow how everything goes. I am excited to say to scheduled a mini-getaway with my mom and the boys to the pocono mtns in 2 weeks to an indoor water park resort. I obviously will not be doing anything other than sitting in a pool somewhere but getting away will be fun plus Fall is so beautiful in the poconos so I am excited. I am starting to feel heavy and achy now so its harder to do things and carrying my ds who is now 13 months is a killer. I took him to the little gym yesterday and almost died chasing him around...lol Well I am wishing you all the best and love hearing about your pregnancies. PS Lauren we all have our crazy moments...lol for me dish soap started smelling tasty so I am constantly in the kitchen smelling it....lol at least you are not crazy like me

NT scan risk assessment today, risk is low ( downs 1:2700 tri 1:8400 ) Ultrasound was awesome...seen baby clapping and tapping foot...it was soooo cool!!!

Has anyone else have this excess saliva thing...this has been my new issue. Mostly in the am when first get up but sometimes I am coughing so much sometimes that it literally ....sorry TMI make me dry heave! its happened 4x to that point but it literally gags me. its more of that than the nausae..

I have lessened zofran once daily to once every other day but the salvia is horrible in the mornings

[kynlee]

Lauren- Great Belly shot

Annashope- Love the 3d picture cant wait to get one of those they are so cool Enjoy your mini vacation relaxing in the pool sounds fun to me

Always- I have not had the saliva thing but I find myself to wake up with Dry mouth which is horrible I then gozzle a bottle water

AFM- just got back from Dr appt HB 154 today 1st trimester it was in 175 range Dr said that is fine early pregnancy HB can run higher that the norm is 110-160 so I guess dropping down 20 is normal I have gained 9lbs since being pregnant lol Guess that is all the pasta I need to watch that I guess I go for Anatomy scan on Oct 30th cant wait Starting to plan my revealing party...

[leorira11]

I'm a bit overweight, so they couldn't see everything they needed to (I have a follow up anatomy scan in 6 weeks) - but it's a healthy looking baby BOY!

[kynlee]

Leora- Yah Team Blue How exciting I cant wait to find out what I am having I find out in 4 weeks


AFM- Need everyones thoughts on the FLU shot... My OB is recommending it and so is my primary Dr I read mixed reviews and whated to see what others thought...

[Alwaysangel]

Leorna- YEAH Team Blue!! That is soo awesome!

Kynlee- I was thinking about the same thing...i have an OB appt 10/5 so i will be asking them about it then

annashope-how did it go today?

Should we start a roll call??

[Sunshine1576]

Leora- See I knew finding out the gender had to be right around the corner! I bet you and David are so thrilled it's a boy, but what are you going to do about that onezie? lol I had to ask! Anyway I will be joining you ladies shortly over here and I cannot wait! Well whether or not I am still posting here because I no longer trust facebook on IVF topics. Anyway that's another story. Oh and I didn't tell you my cousin in getting married next weekend soooo excited about her wedding!

Kynlee- I was checking up on you over here too, sounds like your ultrasound went well, and I know you are loving every second of this pregnancy keep up the great work girl!

Alwaysangel- Yay you passed the NT assessment and sounds like this baby was putting on a show!

Annashope- 3D sounds awesome. Your mini-getaway sounds like a real treat, where is Poconos never heard of it?

Lauren- Great belly shot, I think your cat loved the kodak moment too.

[Madame X]

Hi ladies!

Just popping in to say hi! Glad everyone is doing so well!

Lauren and Anna - Cute baby bumps and Anna enjoy every minute of your shower!

Leora - Congrats on team blue!!!! I am so happy everything is moving right along! I know you've heard this a million times, but you totally deserve it!

Kynlee - Glad all is going great! I have gained about 7 pounds myslef! I want to have a gender reveal party too, but my parents are going to be on a Cruise when we find out.... I don't know if I could hold off blabbing!

Always - That is great news on the low risk! Your u/s sounds amazing!

AFM - Back to school bussiness, my sister got engaged and I am in a wedding next weekend at the Jersey Shore and my SIL is planning her bridal shower now... lots of stuff going on! Also, my best friend found out she was pregnant, she was 5 weeks behind me. We were so happy to be having our babies together, but she had a m/c. She started bleeding and the u/s reveled the baby only measured 4 weeks at what should be 6 weeks. I feel horrible!

On the baby front I have had only one appointment, which was Wednesday, since 10 weeks and the heart rate was still 175. I go back on Halloween for my next u/s which should also reveal the sex!!! The nurses were teasing saying we will find out if it is a ghoul "girl". I do not like Halloween so at least it gives me something to look forward to. Also, we have decided not to have any testing done to find about downs or anything else. My window for the blood test would be from 17- 20 weeks. We have been tested up and down and so has the donor. At this point I have to just let nature take over and have hope everything is just fine.

Hope you girls have a great weekend!

[LYD10]

Leora - congratulations on the boy!!!!

AFM: No zofran since Thursday but this salvia thing sucks...really bad!!! i still end up in the bathroom as my system tries to get it out.
