A LITTLE ABOUT ME: I am a 32 year old mother of two very healthy sons. I am pregnant for the fourth time. I have had 1 miscarriage last year on my birthday at 11 weeks. This year about 2 weeks before my birthday I thought it had been awhile since my period. I took 3 tests and they were all positive. I was happy but worried at the same time. All I could think was that I would spend another birthday in the ER having a M/C. Well, so far I made it through my birthday and I'v had my first ultrasound. It was great. The baby was very active and has a strong heartbeat. My next appt is 6 weeks away! Torture Well, I've made it to the dreaded 11th week. I will feel so happy to finish this week and next. I think I'll feel confident enough to maybe buy something. I just have this fear of miscarriage that I can't control. I don't even feel the same this time around I feel more pregnant (if that makes sense) But I'm still worried. I have feelings like everything is fine, but who knows?

Well, week 14 has been started. I am very happy to be here. I am still very nervous. I have 2 weeks before I can go hear the heartbeat and ask questions. I don't know how I'll make it. I still feel very pregnant. I even have a small belly, but there is a part of me that just isn't sure. Maybe its hormones, I feel confident then I don't. Keeping my fingers crossed. Glitter Words
[Glitterfy.com - *Glitter Words*]May 19, 2008- Today is my husband birthday, he got a great birthday gift. We had our ultrasound. It was so amazing. The baby is 13 ounces already, very developed. The technology has improved so much since my last son. I was thrilled to see all the fingers and toes. We all were very excited.

June 20, 2008- Its FRIDAY!! I don't think I've ever been so glad to see friday. I was thinking that the last 6 months flew by. But I fear that the next 3 or 4 will last forever. I am very uncomfortable with myself lately. I have trouble rolling over, sitting up straight, sleeping. My belly isn't even THAT big yet. I think she is very low and pushing down already. I'm sure I'm crazy and its all in my mind. I just know its worth it, at this point I'm just praying that I can fix myself after this baby. I'm not as young as I used to be .

July 11, 2008 Update: I am finally into my 3rd trimester and I'm getting thicker by the day. I am feeling all kinds of crazy feelings. I'm very emotional most days, I could cry or scream at anything or anyone. I'm having feelings of urgency. Like to hurry with the baby's room, hurry to get the house ready, I feel like I'm very behind schedule all the time. I can't seem to get a grip. I promised myself that I would try to relax and take it easy, but its so hard. Maybe my girl will come early!!

August 4, 2008 Update: I have been feeling great. I have the normal pregnancy woes. Tired, Round, Hot, Heart Burn and trouble sleeping. But its all worth it. When I feel this baby move inside its unreal. I'll never get tired of that. I'm getting excited to see her. Her room is ready, but my bag for the hospital is not. I still don't have the car seat. I know I know, Thats important. I just haven't had the time to get one. Her bedroom is lower half red, upper half country white. Her crib is oak wood and her dresser too. Her bedding is ladybugs and flowers. I love it. So cute. We have been trying to clean out our house of clutter before she comes so we can fit her and everything she will need. We have a lot of junk we collected over the years, it feels great to donate it. My 8yr old son loves to donate stuff. My 12 year old is a hoarder who loves to hoard stuff. My husband is trooper who is ready and willing to make room. 60 something more days.

Hey there, I just saw what you were saying about your checkup where the doctor/midwife queried you for not signing papers about getting your tubes tied. That is SO out of line. Three children is not necessarily all you'll ever want, and a decision like that should be made at least 2 years after the birth of your last child, so you've had time to consider it completely and very very carefully! I'm expecting with baby #6, so maybe I'm biased, but I'd so ticked off with her! She should mind her own damn business. As for how much weight you've gained, I gained over 40 lbs with my previous 3 babies, but lost it all within months of their births and non-pregnant I am typically a very slim 49kg (that's around 112lbs). Anyway, hope you're having a better time now. Labor dust and all that! xxx

I've heard about the whole lifting your arms over your head thing. Don't know if it's true or not but she's not making it up. I always wake up though sleeping on my back with my arms above my head and my baby is still kickin so it's probly not true.....

i would definitely rather have her without a drop of meds but if it comes down to it, i'll probably get an epidural if i can't take it anymore but i'm going to try to wait until i've tried my hardest without it. last night in lamaze class we did the breathing relaxation and it's something that'd totally work for me if i concentrated on it but who knows how i'm going to be when i'm in labor. it's my first so i don't know really what to expect so i'm trying to keep my options open while still knowing what i'd prefer to do. good luck to you and your family :]

Your blood pressure sounds in a good ball park what I have heard from other moms. I can't feel if it is high, but I check it outside the dr office at a drug store and it seems to be going up little by little. So, I need to watch it. Oh, yes the Strep B virus. They test you for that here soon. It is a virus that many women carry and it is no harmful to us but the baby will be effected coming out of the birth canal. So they take a swipe (rub) from your anus to vagina and do a culture. If you have it you go on antibotics before birth. No biggie.
How are you feeling? I am sore and bitchy....lastnight I woke up to lower back pain and pressure. My pelvis is sore...what eles is sore?????EVERYTHING... So. yes I bitch alot. My poor DH and daughter.
I am going to make some oatmeal cookies today..that will help for a short time...Hee,hee.
Thanks for responding. Keep in touch.

Hey, have a question for you gals. How is everyones blood pressure doing? Are you seeing a rise? My pressure has been about 118/70 through out my pregnancy, now it has gone up to 125/75. Is this normal? sometimes it will be 130+/80 when I first walk into the dr office, but after I sit for awhile it is in the 120's. Anyone experiencing this and what is safe. The nurse was not too concerned , but I thought I would ask other moms and see what you all are experiencing. Thanks.
