Pregnancy Check In Dec 07

Thanks for the warm welcome ladies!

So, catch me up, how far along is everyone and do you know what you're having?

Not much new here. Going in to my GP today to get scripts filled and hopefully convince her to give me a few more Betas to keep me reassured until my first u/s in a few weeks. Got a great leg workout in yesterday, so that felt great!

Gad a HUGE mole removed that was suspicious so that might put a damper on my workouts for the next few days. Got a big chunk scraped off my leg yesterday. My dad had skin cancer, so they want to be sure to get everything that looks funky to be sure. OUCH!

Happy Thursday!

Good morning ladies!
How is everyone feeling today ? I hope everyone and their bellies are doing well.
Im at work now, in my old spot (thank the Lord! I truly mean that). I hope i am here to stay. Its pouring down rain right now. What I wouldnt give to be asleep right now or curled up under a blanket. Ah well...at least its my friday.

Jess - i hope the baby reveals him/herself. Let us know what you find out!

Tana - the drink i had they gave mea few weeks early so it sat in the fridge. Even cold it wasnt the most apetizing. But it wasnt as bad as other people made it out to be.

Ann - my dad has skin cancer too. i got my frekcles and moles looked at last year but they didnt seem concerned. THe doctors i always pick never give a crap or so it seems. I hope your heal quickly.

Also, since you asked for an update here is mine

I am 30 weeks now, and im having a baby girl! She is due Feb 18th.
At the last appointment a couple weeks ago, she was already 3 pounds. The midwife said thats almost a pound heavier than average. So im terrified im going to have a huge baby. I was 8 pounds nad my hubby was 12. So....if genes play a roll i might be in trouble!! :)
 
OOOOOOOOOOOOOK ladies... I found out!!

I'm still in shock some but it was pretty obvious.

It's A...













BOY!
OMG my third boy!!! lol. he was a cutie though. The tech was so nice and put it on 4d for a second and I got to see his cute face and got a pic of it(she said shes not supposed to do that!). She said he was a tad rounded in the belly(well fed she said lol). She said he looks very healthy. He is a stinker though and wasn't cooperating very well. We kept seeing his boy parts on accident several times. ha. I'd be in trouble if I didn't want to know. But otherwise it was hard to get the pics she needed. He also was all scrunched up most of the U/S. He has his feet above his head and his knees in his face for a while. He was also upside down like that. I said that didn't look so cozy but she said they are very flexible and also weightless in the fluids. I have a ton of pics she took. I've never got so many at an U/S. I'll scan some and post them soon! :) Oy! I kinda wanted it to be a girl just to make DH eat his words. The whole pregnancy he just says flat out "its a boy" no ifs ans or buts about it. He then says he only produces boys. Which of course is silly. He's kidding but it was getting SO annoying. Oh well.
 
first few. the 4d pic. shes said he was all cozied up to the placenta like a pillow. ha.
His profile and how scrunched up he looked for a bit! lol.

CONGRATULATIONS ANNE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I totally miss "seeing" you around and I'm glad you're back with your BFP!! I'll be praying and crossing everything for this one to be the one!!

Here's my info, Anne...

I'm 27 wks along and having a baby girl. Her due date is March 10, but will be born via c-section a week earlier. My son (age 4) was breach (sp?) with the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck and (I think) armpit so he was a c-section baby.

Congratulations, Anne, on your great news!

Tana
 
Thanks for the comments Anne and Tana ;)

Anne heres my info.
Jess
currently 20 weeks due April 28th
I have two boys already so this makes boy #3. (seth and noah)
 
Jess, those are some GREAT ultrasound pictures! especially the first batch.
The only one of my baby's face that looks like a baby was taken at 28 weeks, which i posted. To me, she looks funny so i hope its just a distortion. it likes like her nose is huge and her cheeks are stretched out wide. I hope thats just some sort of picture distortion though.

congrats on your baby boy! wow, boy number 3. My aunt had four girls, and on the fourth one my uncle was really hoping for a boy. but i guess he only makes girls! So he gave up after the forth, got a plant, and named it Ben lol

I had my 30th week appointment today. I was in and out. Protein level was great (checking for anemia), blood pressure was fine, weight gain - gaining!
The midwife said i had nice skin on stomach and no stretch marks (but still have 10 weeks to go). She said quite possibly i would show stretch makrs by now if i were going to get them.

I still have swelling on my feet and ankles though, but she didnt seem too concerned about it. I guess they consider it normal.
 
Congrats, Jess! Great u/s pics! I have 2 boys, and everyone on my dh's side has boys. He acts all macho about making boys too. He's convinced that IF we have another, it will be a boy;). Men!:rolleyes:
-Jen
 
Jen - I got a few that look kinda funny of his face. you can get good/bad pics. Not saying yours was bad. i don't remember it looking bad at all. I'll attach one that is kinda funny looking to me ha. his belly looks HUGE and his face kinda weird.

Thats funny about your Uncle. seems lots of families end up all girl or all boy.

Glad your appt went well!

Kate - I'm working on room plans now. I'm looking online for bedding. ;)

Jen - yeah men!! lol.

happy saturday ladies!
how is everyone doing today?

I am proud of myself. I was going to be lazy and not workout since my DH wasnt going to the gym. But then he had an errand to run that came up so i decided to do a workout. I did the original bodymax. yay :) Yesterday i did anni's cardio force, which was over in 50 minutes so i feel like i slacked off.

my arch pain still bothers me so its hard for me to get thru a workout. i cant look forward to my workouts as much as i used to. i find circuits dont bother it as much. but steady stepping or straight cardio does :( Maybe my feet grew. I know I swell all the time.

Im making 3 different cookies this weekend maybe - peanut butter with hershey kisses, a cherry version of those, and a retro pistachio cream cookie drizzled with chocolate from the 70s. My mom makes those every year at xmas. they are my all time favorite cookie!

i probaly shouldnt becuase i know i'll be eating them

dh and i are out to run errands soon, just wanted to wave hello to all!
 
Oh yum! The pistachio cream cookie sounds DELICIOUS!! I never knew such a cookie existed. Yummy Yummy Yummy

Tana
 
well I feel kinda bad. We were invited to friends for dinner and I ate a piece of chocolate cake with some icecream after dinner. ugh!! ha. I've been running around today doing last minute Christmas shopping. I have to get everything in the mail Monday. I just wrapped my boys last few gifts. we have family coming up next weekend and we'll be packed with people in our little house. ha. Hope you all are having a good weekend :)

Jen- if you make the pistachio cream cookie you should take a pic. I can't even imagine what that looks like. Sounds really yummy though.

Lisa -thanks :) I have them all in a little photo album in my purse to show everyone lol.
