I do medical transcription at home. I have done this for about 13 years. Some of those years were in the office before my son came along. I also homeschool my five-year-old son. I am pregnant with my second son and plan to homeschool him also. Life is busy!!!!

Hello everyone! I have not posted in a while because of being so busy and soooooooo tired. I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and everything is going very well. I am 29 weeks and have gained 15 pounds. She says I am measuring right on target and the heartbeat was extremely strong. I...

My son is now five and was not trained until he was three. I started seriously trying to train him when he was about two and a half. He was not the least bit interested. He is the type that it has to be his idea and no one elses. Oh brother!!!! Strong will in a big way. I did not push and...

Boobie Applelips! That doesn't sound very nice, does it?

Hello everyone! I went to the doctor Tuesday and just wanted to give a quick update. I am 20 weeks and have finally gained two pounds. I am starting to feel better and eat more. She said everything seems to be going fine and she was happy I had finally gained. I am having trouble with...

I guess I am in the minority here. Neither time did I have a clue that I was pregnant until I took the test. I took the test on the day that I should have started both times. I did not really have symptoms until approximately four weeks into the pregnancy and that is usually when I start...

I say it's possible too. I felt movement a litte earlier this time than I did last time. I would say the first flutters were around 15 weeks. This is one of the best things about being pregnant. I love to feel that movement. Just wait until you're just sitting there and you jump because...

I love to crochet (afghans, doilies, etc.), crossstitch, read, draw, scrapbooking, play the piano, and apparently keep a cluttered, messy home. I don't get to do these things very often (except the messy home part) because of time constraints but some day!!!!

Well, you just shout all you want to. Having a baby is the greatest and I am just excited as you are. I have been feeling the baby move for the past few weeks and now my husband can feel it. That is what is so fun about pregnancy, feeling the movement. It is also very reassuring. Stay...

I have a boy and am pregnant with a boy. I did not and have not had any unusual breakouts. I have not heard of that wives tale. I don't think there is any positive indication of gender until you have an ultrasound or give birth. That's just my opinion! I can't wait until you find out what...

We will be going on vacation the 15th of May also. I took care of the problem by getting pregnant. :) Maybe that's not an option for you!!! Seriously, sometimes I have to use a tampon and a pad, especially if I know cannot get to a bathroom fairly often!

Thanks everybody!!! It is very exciting to know what my bundle is. He has been kicking a lot lately. Even my husband got to feel a kick or two. We know his middle name will be Andrew (husband's middle name)but we haven't totally decided on the first name. Most probably will be Caleb. I...

We just got back from having an ultrasound and it is a boy. I really felt like I was having a girl but the pictures say otherwise. :) I will really be out numbered now. They said everything looked great and there are no problems. Yippee! Now we have to decide on a name! Just thought I...

I took one of the Zofran yesterday because I had to get out and do some stuff. WOW!!!!!!! It worked great, terrific, fantastic. I almost felt normal, whatever that is!!!! I did develop a headache a few hours after taking it but that may be good old spring and pollen stuff. I ended up...

Hello everyone! I had a doctor's appointment today and thought I would share. The heart beat was very strong. Very reassuring! I am almost 16 weeks and have lost 5 pounds. I have been very sick and it shows no signs of slowing. I got a prescription from my doctor today that helps nausea...

I'm a little late but wanted to add my stat. I'm 5'9" and love it. I've never wished to be shorter.

RE: Steppingup Thanks everyone! I'm sorry I haven't responded but I just now saw this thread, duh!!!! I wasn't ignoring it! I had a great birthday. It would have been a tiny bit better if pregnancy nausea wasn't a part of it but I am still thrilled to be pregnant. We just spent a...

Wayne, We share the same birthday!!!! I am 35 today. Happy birthday to you!!!

Stacey, It sounds like you are doing great. It sounds like you are making reasonably healthy choices. In fact, you are doing tons better than I am. It's great to eat smaller meals and eat more often. Supposedly this helps nausea but it has not helped mine. If I don't eat by about 1 or 2...

Mine is March 4th. I will be 35!!!!
