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!

Christina1984 - Wednesday, 30 April i was so terrified of labor with my 1st pregnancy and it turned out not so bad especially when they gave the epidural. however, this time i am starting to have anxiety attacks about it again. i am so scared that the epidural will hurt and what if i dont get there in time and cant have one. last time i made it to the hospital in time to push and they said i couldnt have one but ended up being able to give it to me. so i totally understand how u feel. the only thing people keep telling me is that so many women go through it everyday and survive so i will too. doesnt help tho. it really pisses me off when my fiance tells me it will be fine. of course it will be fine for him he has never gone through it lol. if any1 gives u any good advice on this please let me know.
Military-wifey - Wednesday, 30 April We are fine.......and congrats to you also! Its really not that bad.....I mean its the military life.....the unexpected happens. We actually talk pretty much on a daily basis so I have his support still and knowing he'll be home in June makes me so happy even though he has to finish his tour. Any whoo.........how's your pregnancy coming along?
newton2 - Monday, 28 April Good, im glad your not letting nasty ppl get to you. stay positive and make the most of your beautiful maternal glow. (No matter how skimpy they dress they wont have that!!). If you need to vent im here to listen. ( i love to moan lol)

newyearpresent - Friday, 25 April Write a very polite and yet angry letter to the airline company. List all the specifics: prices, flights, time, everything. State your complaint very clearly. Warn the company that these are very difficult times for airline industry and they should treat thei customers with respect and courtesy, rather than lose customers. Most companies will send you free ticket vouchers. It's worth a try!
kathy24 - Wednesday, 23 April Hi there, I just read your post about the airlines and the price. I had a bad situation with American Airlines and complaining to the customer service did nothing so I wrote a letter and complained and about a month later I got vouchers for a free flight the next time I went somewhere. Of course that was about 10 years ago but it might be worth a try for you!
glamour313 - Tuesday, 22 April Girl I understand so much about the emotional rollercoaster happening....and screw those hating girls and Im so happy that he showed his love for you right in there damn faces lol
newton2 - Tuesday, 22 April I totally understand how you feel, i have been 'over' emotional too, i cried the other day when i couldnt find the other half to an odd sock!! Your so beautiful and your hubby is sweet for making the point of kissing you in front of those gelouse females. I hope you feel better soon, all the best, take care x x
woolvett - Tuesday, 22 April Well theres not much time to go now. I'd hang in there. I remember I actually hated being pregnant my first time around because of all the crazy things it did to my body and couldn't believe all the gushy stuff people would say about pregnancy. This time is better for me but maybe because i've already been stretched out before and see everyday the gorgeous kid I got for all my work. (That part is the biggest most amazing thing ever) I totally understand the emotion thing too. I feel like i'm going crazy sometimes. I get offended when someone tells me i'm too big and offended when they say i'm too small. lol. Hope you get a chance to start feeling better and really enjoying the amazing things happening inside your body.
armywifeash - Tuesday, 22 April Your hubby is a sweet man! I am a military wife too and we all hear about how other spouses can be so mean and gossipy! Its still surpising when it happens though! Hang in there girl! You have it good!
woolvett - Monday, 21 April Wow what a bunch of b---ches. You are beautiful and it sounds like they were jealous. Of course you are going to get big with the baby but even if it doesn't feel that way now it really is a beautiful big. Your hubby was great the way he responded and hopefully it put those girls to shame. Keep your head up...those aren't cheeseburgers in there!
jesnik059 - Monday, 21 April Thanks!! I just know it's going to be so hot this summer :)
chasesmommy - Saturday, 19 April i have a playroom for my 5 year old and he's had one sice birth basically. its easier for me cause all the toys are focused in one area and its easier to clean. I'm gonna do it until we have too many kids and run out of room.lol
sarabug06 - Thursday, 17 April If you have the space a playroom will be wonderful! My two older boys are 6 and 7 and it is amazing how much stuff they accumulate, you will be thankful to have a room that can be a little more cluttered than you would want a bedroom to be.
Sharonimo - Thursday, 17 April Hi- we have a playroom off of our kitchen (our bedrooms are upstairs) where all of my sons toys go and it has been great. We keep a few toys in his room so that if (HA! when...) he decidedes to get up earlier than we would like, he just plays in there or reads (he can't open the door yet, thank goodness!) He didn't really use the toy room until he could sit and crawl but it is a great idea!
mommynicolem - Thursday, 17 April As far as having a room for the toys, my son (soon to be sons) have the whole bonus room for his (their) playroom. It's a wonderful idea!
jjohnston6 - Thursday, 17 April Good luck with the search I have found the longer I wait for something good to pop up the better the positions seem to get. I too recently obtained my position (December) so I am going to complete my 6 months which will put me into July so when I get back from Maternity leave I will be ready to shop around. Are you and your family going to stay in the area for a while or is it pretty much up to youre husbands job?
keri08 - Wednesday, 16 April I saw your comment about bedding for your son's nursery. For me I have been finding everything at target.com. You might like this: http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref=sc_pgb_r_12_1_15810461/601-2257795-1135338?ie=UTF8&frombrowse=1&asin=B000S6YHVE
Hope it helps. Keri
armywifeash - Wednesday, 16 April I think you should wait it out for a little while.. at least until maybe the middle of your maternity leave. If this guy has already been told to step up and he's not doing it, he may be looking for a new job soon and you may have someone much better coming along! I also know how you feel about trusting your baby with strangers. This is part of the reason why Im taking a year off after my little girl is born. My hubby is also in the military and he's getting deployed in November so I really dont want to leave her with strangers while he is gone too.
jjohnston6 - Wednesday, 16 April Hi Dani.. If you and I are not in the same job situation! My job is also project driven but working with other project managers and getting the info I need is extremely stressful.. The projects keep coming but the process to get information to me is not getting corrected fast enough... Oh I want to choke the hell out of some people but like you I am walking around with a belly and don't want to leave in the middle of my pregnancy. I am going to start fresh after my maternity leave is done. As for the care provider I no longer hae a huge problem as my mom moved up to where I am in March sorry couldn't be of more help! Good luck wih the search.
3rdbaby4me - Tuesday, 15 April oh, and thanks for the comment about the pics. When are you gonna post some prego pics?
3rdbaby4me - Tuesday, 15 April Other than swollen feet... I am good.... Just excited about meeting my baby. Not to much longer :O)
3rdbaby4me - Tuesday, 15 April Hey how are things going?
rtg - Monday, 14 April Thank you so much. We are so excited and had a wonderful weekend.
