Hello Everyone I just turned 29 years old and have been married to my husband Carl for 4 1/2 years (it will be 5 years on June 21st). This will be our first child so we are both really excited about this new experience. We just moved here to San Antonio by way of other countries we were living in including Japan and Korea. It is good to be back in the states and even better that we will get to have our first child here. My husband is in the Air Force and I work for the University of Texas at San Antonio in the Purchasing Department. We are supposed to find out the sex of our baby on March 28, 2008 and we are due on August 15, 2008. I look forward to learning from others and getting help and advice along the journey. I welcome any advice and extra support is even better. I want to congratulate all of you who are pregnant and those who have already brought life into this world-this is truly a beautiful experience and may God Bless you all!

Update: It's a boy!!!! It became official on March 28, 2008 at 3pm that we have a little boy playing around in my stomach. My husband was extremely excited because he wanted a boy first. We are naming him Jordan Lambert he was doing everything from twirling his fingers, hiding his feet, sucking this thumb, posing for pictures, sticking his mouth out to actually playing peek a boo with himself using his left hand and left eye. It was all so surreal and so cute...I can't believe he is inside of me, reality hit then and I keep staring at my belly wondering what he is doing...we are so excited!!!

We can't wait for our little one to make his debut...our families and friends are so extremely excited. We thank God for this blessing that came along at the right time when we are both ready for a baby...We are ready to shower our baby with all of the love that God allows us to!

I understand ! It's not that you are not ready- There is only so many books you can read and only so much personal stories you can listen to. But now this is you- Your own story- Your own experience.. It's the fear of the unknown and the what-if's..But I am here to remind you ,that you are going to give birth to a beautiful baby boy, you have the support of a strong ,black man who loves you.

You are going to be more than fine you are going to be dynamic..When it's time to give birth you are going to morph into soldier.. And a nuturer.. And noone will be able to tell if little man is your first baby or one of many..

BEST WISHES,Dani!

LOL- I think our little men are reacting to our small frames.. They are both coming from some very large men and were placed in petite women... We have identical circumstances. I am praying for you.. I know there are moments when I plead with little Simba to settle down- he always listens which makes my heart melt.

How are you feeling?? Let me know ..

Hi dani, I have had similar shooting pains as you have described. I think it is the baby down in the pelvis. I read in some of my baby books that once the baby is engaged you can experience those types of pains and my doctor told me the same thing. It does really hurt so I understand! It's like my little boys head is bobbing side to side and send these shocks...ouchy! Hope you don't experience a whole lot more of those. :)

Dani, i am so with you on this 1. i am sick and tired of pricking my finger and taking insulin. i am full of holes. my insulin has just been upped to 4 times a day. just like you i have been fed up so much that i have also been eating LOTS of junk that i shouldn't but it is so hard, especially when you are tired, heavy and had enough. I only found out today that they will offer me an induction from 38 weeks so i am being booked in on the 6th or as close as. They scanned me today and said the baby is about 7lb 3oz so it won't be that big, i'm just so fed up and massive.x

I'm sorry you have had trouble with your blood sugars! I would say not to really be worried as much about his size at this point, but just remember that if your sugars are higher, there's a higher chance that the baby will be born hypoglycemic because his pancrease is secreting excess insulin to lower the sugar coming from your blood. So, when he is born, his pancreas will continue producing that insulin at first and lower his own sugar too much. That's why they have to put babies of mother's with GD on glucose drips at birth sometimes in order to regulate their blood sugar. Just think...as soon as he is here, you can have as much cake and candy as you want :) Good luck!!!

Girl I'm actually in week 39 and 41 years old but I will still take the compliment because we all deserve much ups for going through pregnancy and remaining sane :), LOL! I pray the fabulousness carrys over into mothering this little bundle as well :)

My 17 year old son just got hired at his first job today, a grocery store cashier! Wow! How funny? He told them that the only day he can't work is nxt Friday because his brother is being born. The store manager was like you are 17 and they have another one on the way? Wow! We just laughed...

I know right. Much less pregnancy.

Well, that may be similar to me and my husband, even though we are both brown, his side of the family are all really light and our first came out light with stick straight hair. But at my hospital, they attach bracelets to all three of us the minute the baby is born and they ID everyone to make sure all the numbers and names match. Don't worry about losing your baby. To feel better, you might just want to do a tour of the hospital and have them explain how it all works to you.

Yeah i know. Hearing them say i wont go the rest of my 5 weeks and probably 3 weeks maybe 4 weeks and theres nothing wrong to where i will really made me feel like i just skipped atleast 2 weeks of my life hahaha!!! Because i'm looking at new dates and weeks now you know? Confusing....because i dont know when he's coming, you never know at the end but im more confused now.

Your older brother needed some prayer himself for even saying that to a woman in her nineth month of pregnancy :). LOL! I know God understands when a preggers woman is complaining!
