Beautiful Babies Due in 2011 (Combined Group)

[Happy Bunny]

Thanks so much ladies! I'm hooked up right now and her little heart rate is perfect and responsive. I don't know why I can't feel her?? The weird thing is (and nobody scold me) I hadn't felt much of her since Monday...they said she may be in a position that makes it harder for me to feel her. Who knows! But, crisis averted! Thanks for all your prayers!!!

YAY! Maybe she's got her arms and legs pointed at her placenta or her neighbor.

Great news Ryann!! So glad to read that Bella's doing just fine, YAY!!!

[Sweetpea614]

Ryann so happy to hear Bella is doing fine!

Klinger- Praying these next two weeks fly by for you. It must be so exciting to be so close.

Lou- OMG on your friends. I would be pissed as well. Your giving them enough notice.

Ryann: so glad Bella is doing great. Will was on the bottom most of the time and barely moved towards the end. I would poke and squeeze my belly to make him move, and Wyatt constantly kicked me.

Amanda: Yay for a close delivery date! I can't believe that today was my actual due date.

Lou: people suck! I had some horrible issues with my baby shower, mostly caused by my SIL. And she wonders why I want nothing to do with her. Try to have a good time and enjoy the people that are there.

AFM: busy, busy, busy here at home but I wouldn't change a thing!

[BlissfulCS]

Lou- unbelievable!!! We'll all come to your shower. . Seriously? I have never heard such a story. One of your friends actually called about alternative dates? That is unfathomable and almost funny it's so inappropriate. Don't worry hon. It's your day and it will be wonderful. Play it up and make them pay with a bunch of expensive guilt fueled gifts.

Ryann- so glad everything worked out!

Gina- thanks for including us 2012 ladies in your new group. It seems so far away but I'm sure it will seem like no time at all.

Ryann - so glad all is well and no one will scold you here, we are all faulty

Lou WTF? Seriously WTF? People do suck, and in times like these I am just shocked. At my work there is a guy here who had 5 kids, I contributed to every kids gift card here and do you think he gave me a penny when we had our shower? NADA! People suck big time. Can you just tell them oh I am so sorry you can't be at my shower, but you can just mail your gift card!!!!!!!!!!!! Argh! Seriously lay in the guilt..... they deserve it!

Gina I am sure we will all trickle in to the new group!

Happy Bunny - I see you are still hanging in there!

Amanda - congrats on 37 weeks - you are home free now! It doesn't get better than 37, your baby is fully developed!

nwquiz - it is pretty std to get the Nuchal no matter your risk and age.

Mellow yeay for Marlo, I follow your blog and the pics of her and daddy made me cry, I hope he can come back soon, it must be so hard! I hope she starts feeding on her own soon! Super prayers to you!

Sweetpea - congrats on your boy!

Ryann - So glad that Bella is OK. She is just starting early with the momma worry.

Gina - Those boys are getting so big!!! Great idea on the new group. That way we can stalk you too!

Klinger - Congrats on 37 weeks. That is huge - baby fully developed. You will just have to have something else planned everyday to make the weeks go faster, that helps me - but I'm still going for months and weeks (not days).

Happy Bunny - hope things start moving along for you too!

Lou - on the predictor I guess right for me too but it is boy/girl twins so don't know if that counts. I am so sorry about the shower. That has to be so disappointing. I like the idea of making them feel really guilty and getting better gifts!! 8 weeks is plenty of time to give notice - they should arrange around you.

Rio - Glad the NST went well. Dr appts are a pain but atleast you know all is well!

Mellow - So glad Marlo is doing well and gained a pound!!! that is so great. I will be praying that she can nurse next week - that would be so wonderful. Sorry your husband is gone for so long.

Vicky - Glad all is going well - sounds like your baby is doing great.

Kat - So glad the NT test went well and congrats on the little BOY - it is so amazing that they can tell this early, but I was like you and wanted to wait for a later US to be sure.

Blair - I only gained 4-5 pounds in first trimester - just wait the burst of weight gain and belly growing are coming. I had a huge one at 18-20 weeks.

AFM - I finally figured out how to download a picture. YAY me!! (Little behind). It is not the best but taken at 22 weeks. This is what having twins look like when you have a short little torso and the babies can only go out - and they go out. I am just amazed that I can and will get bigger. One day at a time. I have my glucose test on Monday. NOT looking forward to Sunday and no fruit! Otherwise I am still doing good. The babies are kicking and moving a bunch - I can already see my belly move.

Hope all are well. Happy Friday tomorrow.

Ryann: So very glad to hear that all is well. I am sure I will be a wreck worrying about every movement in a few months myself! Remember to be taking it easy...

Lou: So sorry to hear about the shower issues...ugh...people! I really can't imagine having the gall to suggest you change the shower for her convenience. Sigh...but don't let it get you down. The main thing is you and little Chloe! (And I sent you a PM about the other--hope it isn't too long.) And regarding the gender prediction...not sure what to say. It told me "girl" but we have boy/girl baking so basically it couldn't be wrong for me.

Kelley: You look awesome!! I love having you and then Ryann ahead of me to give me a "preview" of what is to come!

Mellow: Love the photos and her beautiful hair coming in...

Nwquiz: Yea, I would call and request a NT. Those can be done as early as 11 weeks and give you good information combined with blood draw at the same time.

Amanda: 37 weeks!! woohoo!!

So after speaking to the perinatologist and telling her that I had probably
only felt her 2-3 times yesterday she decided we better do an US just to be safe. She said otherwise I'll be back tomorrow still worried. So we got another peak! Bella decided she didn't like being head down and is now breach. Dylan is still head down and stretched out like king of the castle!!! They have grown again (which I probably could have guessed based on my belly). Bella is 4lbs6oz and Dylan is 4lbs2oz!!!! Thanks again for all your thoughts today!

Just got home... everything's crazy! Details later, but here are our vaginally delivered perfect little bundles of joy!


Thanks for all the well wishes, I couldn't wait to get back to you wonderful ladies!
