Hi!
My name is Liz, I'm 26 years old and currently live in Maryland. This is My First Pregnancy/Baby and I am super excited. In general, is going ok, you know sometimes everything goes great and other times not so great with the morning sickness and cramps..
I am here to talk and celebrate the ONE THING that I don't get to talk about too often, due to the difficult circumstances in my life (divorce, changing job, etc.), and looking for a little bit of support/information/connection with you ladies, that are experiencing what it is to be or be close to becoming a MOMMY! So
CONGRATULATIONS and HAPPY PREGNANCY!!! XOXOXO
Sept 27, 2007
Now I am almost half way there and getting more and more excited each day. The morning sickness is gone and the cramps that were consistent for a week are gone too. But for some reason I've been very sad this week, and missing my husband a lot, which sucks. I'm hoping it is just the hormones and that soon I'll be back to normal. And I felt the Baby on Sept 24th for the first time! It was much more amazing than I ever thought it would be, and it was such a reassuring moment... I haven't felt it much since thou. Oh, my u/s is coming up on Oct. 4th and I can't wait! For some reason I've been having this feeling that is going to be a Boy, but honestly I wouldn't mind either, so I haven't decided if I will find out during u/s.. I'm just hoping that everything goes well with the tests and that my Baby is doing great... 'Til next time.
Oct. 14, 2007
Well, 10 days after the last u/s and the blood test and no phone call (yeay!), which means that everything seems good. Waited this long to post because I was concern about the results after reading some of your experiences... The Baby was too stubborn to let the doctor see the sex with certainty, :o( and it was frustrating because I really didn't know that I wanted to know the sex until I couldn't (which explains where he/she got the stubborn from), so I get a 2nd chance on the 24th (only 10 more days!).
Not showing much yet, so that's why I haven't posted any pictures of my belly. My nails are growing like crazy and I am still having cravings, mainly for avocados and eggs (not together). I've only gained 2 lbs, and that's actually one of the things that worries me, because I've been eating well! Also, my hormones have been better these days, so I'm not as sad. Here is for the better days to come and an easier 2nd half!!! Hope everything is going Perfect for you too! XOXOXOXO (from me and my Baby)

Do you know that feeling that one day your world feels like is falling apart and the next everything just couldn't be more Perfect? Well, that's my world today, after I found out that I'll be having a Little GIRL!!! I couldn't be Happier... She kicks and moves every single day through the whole day. She goes to sleep late and wake up when she's hungry. Oh, and she gets hyper when I have Chocolate Chip with Cookie Dough milk shakes or when I talk to her with the baby speakers. I'm overwhelmed with all the feelings that I have for her. She owns my world already!! So my days are going by full of daydreaming and kicks and I can't believe how fast 5 months have gone by...
Not much weight gain yet, but the doctor said that everything is very well, and She is a Healthy very Active little kicker :o) and that's what matters the most. Hormones and cramps come and go, but nothing mayor yet (and hopefully stays that way). A little less cravings now too, but I can eat and eat and eat, and sleep! So very soon I'll have to go buy some maternity clothes. Now bring on all the Pink Cuteness and all the Wonderful days to come! Best wishes to you and your Baby (ies)!!! XOxoXOxo. Talk to you soon.

I am so In LOVE with HER!!! I'm getting to know my little Girl little by little everyday and as time passes I just feel closer to her. She knows Mommy too! I can tell when she's hungry or when she is uncomfortable with me lying a certain way; I also know that she's a night owl, which makes it a little harder to stay asleep sometimes... Is it okay to say that I still can't be believe I'm pregnant? This is something so surreal and amazing and so fast that I haven't come to the point where I stop feeling like She is a dream. After I see her, I might need a couple of days to just stare at her (and probably cry) to believe that she is mine...
As for the pregnancy, everything is going great in general. For a couple of days I felt a little nausea, but it went away. I think I'm getting to the point of the "not being able to sleep well all night", and that is making my days go slower than usual. Oh, and the hormones and sadness are back :o( I'm still working on the gaining weight which I'm hoping to be a success after my vacation to Puerto Rico next week. I am so excited to see my family!! :oD I'll keep you posted. And have a very Happy Thanksgiving with your loved ones!...Take care Mommy! We are getting there...

Wow, it has been a while, huh? And now I'm 29 weeks!!! Almost 1/4 of the time left (Yeay!), but then all the anxiety kicks in... OMG, I'm so not ready! The nursery is not done, I haven't find time for the classes, breastfeeding planning, hospital bag and what if She comes early?; and let me mention the Birth is so close and I haven't picked One name!! On a more positive note, we've been doing Fantastic! I even had the energy to paint the room by myself, and I have no idea how I managed to stay out of the bathroom for that long, lol. She has been kicking like She has absolutely nothing else to do in there and doesn't like me to sleep on my left side and if I'm sitting it has to be with my back straight or she'd find my ribs and start pushing against them, which is not the best feeling. No backaches, no problems breathing, oh, and all the test came back with good results, thank God! The weight, well, not much have changed, but we are healthy, so I'm a lot more relax about that (and it's cheaper not to have the need for maternity jeans, lol).
One more thing, I'm officially dating now!! Something I would have thought almost impossible before it happened; but it's going GREAT! I'm very hopeful and I've come to remember that not many men would leave you a week after finding out that you are pregnant and would act like you and your Baby don't exist (Thanks, Adam!). So now I get to start over with the Best Blessing of All, My BABY GIRL, and hopefully with an Amazing Man that will share my Life and Everything in it with me! (I'm writing this because I've realized that they are many women going through similar situations; and I know how hard it was to see my dreams crumble and to imagine picking my heart back up, not only for my Baby but also for Myself). Life goes on... and the Best is yet to come in 2 more months!
Many Hugs and many Kisses from both of us XOXOxoxo and the Best Holiday Wishes for you and your Baby(ies)!

I really do Love being Pregnant (with the exception of those heartburn moments that is)... I'm still amazed by every kick and the excitement of the wait is indescribable, even though I still get pretty anxious. One of the best feelings I get is when I look at all her clothes and imagine her wearing them, and also, trying to guess what she is going to look like ??? Oh, I picked a name:Nelizbeth! and it came to me on Christmas Day so it was the best Christmas present, and even though I wasn't one of those who came up with the name right away I think is going to be Perfect for her and I hope that she likes it.
Another thing is that I finally look pregnant (not fat)!!! And this rounded thing that I'm carrying around actually looks like a baby without confusion. My two complains at the moment are a horrible heartburn and sleepiness through out the day, and the better things are the hormones, which I'm not going to comment much about :o) Everything else is going very well and she is getting even stronger and active... And the countdown is down to 7 weeks...
Hope that you are doing Great too and you are also enjoying your Pregnancy as much as I am! And Best of Luck for the ones that will be giving birth soon and the ones ttc and many blessings to the ones that already had the pleasure of meeting their Angel (s). XOxoXOxo
March 14, 2008
OMG! Where do I start? I feel like the HAPPIEST person in the world: I have a DAUGHTER and she is Absolutely Gorgeous and Healthy! What else can I ask for?... Nelizbeth was born on March 9, 2008 at 3:25 AM; weighed 6.18 lbs and measured 18.75 inches. And she is truly a MIRACLE since her umbilical cord had a knot since the earlier months when she could turn inside my belly, and most babies don't make it when that happens!... So here is my Birth Story:
At 1:30 PM on March 8 (one day after my due date) my water broke, but it was very little fluid and no contractions yet. Ate lunch, took a shower and drove to the hospital with Mom and Grandma, as I was getting to the hospital my contractions started irregularly and as soon as they put me in a room to check on me my water completely broke, but not much pain yet (seems that I have a high tolerance for pain, lol) or strong contractions and only 3 cms dilated, so the doctor recommended pitocin, and as soon as I heard I asked them for my epidural before anything else (and you can call me a chicken if you'd like, but I don't believe on unnecessary pain!). So I got my epidural and then pitocin and got everything moving without any pain (yeay!), but every time they added more pitocin my baby's heart rate started to slow down too much so they had to turn me and turn me on different positions and lowered the pitocin thinking that the baby wasn't tolerating it, but they didn't know yet about the knot that was keeping her from getting the oxygen that she needed to manage the pressure of the contractions... And 7 hours went by turning and turning. And finally at 3AM I was 9.5 cm, and 20 mins later with 3 practice and 3 real pushes there was my Little Girl!! No stitches, no tears, no pain... And then the doctor brought the umbilical cord and explained why she was a Real Miracle! And as the word got around, and the umbilical cord, everyone came to see her and examine her, but as Lucky as She is, is as Blessed as I am because She made it and she's Perfectly Healthy and I HAVE the AMAZING PLEASURE of HAVING HER with ME TODAY! (and I'm crying as I type because I never thought I could be so Lucky and Happy and Grateful for having such a Wonderful Blessing)...
