Hi all just wanted to let you know that the cruise was fabulous..all is well with baby..yes, I broke down on the ship and had an u/s on ship and there he was sucking his thumb and being adorable. the doctor called all the staff in to see my little guy as many have never seen an u/s. One guy started to cry and said that was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen on the ship...I had to agree! I swear I could stare at my baby all day.:) So, now I am in NY and tomorrow I take the train and see my hubby after two weeks and start the joy of house hunting and then house settling. We came back to sad news. My grandmother passed away while I was on the ship..she was a grand ole 102!! But I looked fwd to sharing my baby with her...but as my friend said, now she has a front row seat!:) But my uncle with whom she had been living the last 8 years along with my aunt is in critical condition and I worry my aunt may lose her husband and mother in the same week. He has pneumonia and then had a heart attack in the hospital and is now bleeding internally...so if you could spare a prayer for him, please offer one up. We are waiting to hear funeral arrangements as all eyes are on my uncle right now. But, we, baby and me are fine...just saddened. so thanks for all your thoughts while i was traveling!!I am so glad now I took the cruise but was worried at the length of it...but glad we are here and still going fine! NY is hot and now rainy but great to back in the USA!

hi there as you all know by my blog..IT IS A BOY..but I wanted to share the rest of my NT screen tests with you because many have asked. The measuremenst wer immediately read and were great 1.5 and well within "normal" they then took blood for what they call a second testing..and we got ourt blood results back yesterday...these screens just give you a risk factor and cannot rule out DS or other problems completely but...Before the test due to our ages and family history our chances of achild with DS was 1 in 68..kind of scary and then they called yesterday and said our reulst were fabulous and the now risk factor is 1 in 1,312...the same risk as a healthy 20 year old!! So, they said to enjoy my 20 year old body.:) who knew!:) anyway, we weren't gping to do an amnio anyway due to tyhe risk factor and of course, we'd be keeping our little boy regradless but the doctor said he wouldn't even suggest one with these results and that he would just do teh quad 4 and the u/s at 20 weeks so we are! Just wanted to update ya'll...still packing away and tryyingh to get ready..can't believe I am leaving europe in just 5 days!! what a new life we have ahead of us!

Hi all! Just a quick update! all is well. Just deep in this move..we have our final wlak through with our landlord tomorrow and I swear we have a house full of junk yet an danother all nighter ahead of us...ARGH!!

My last u/s was lats Tuesday Jun 24 and all was wodnerful. Our little baby was steadily punching his/her little are throughout the u/s.

My Goddaughter got off on Thusrday and her parting was anything but sweet... she was quite disturbing and after her yelling f --this and f---- that for about three hours I ended up yelling back at her to just shut up...anyway, needless to say the trip to the airport was solemn. I was crying all day afraid I had hurt my baby with the over emotional scene..but she is gone an dsafely back in Korea and her three years with us is over although she saddled us with a bunch of her stuff to mail but we'll get to it eventually. It was the first time I ever yelled at her in anger so I was a bit upset but I couldn't get her to stop yelling.And I am sorry we parted in such terms..of course, she now apologizes profusely and alreay wants to come back an dlive with us but she is 18 an dready to face the world.:) without us.:)

So, I have been a bit worried but no pain, no bleeding, still exhausted and jsut came from church where I was humbly reminded this is all in God's hands and I just have to trust that all is well.

11 weeks tomorrow! I am so excited! Thursday July 3 I have my NT screen and will get to see my baby again.;)

No computer anymore so I probably won't update until after Thursday! Thanks for checking in. sorry for the long message! Have a Blessed day and thank for all the thoughts and paryers! 11 weeks and feeling GREAT!

Hi and Thanks o much for your comments. I am sure they are fine and always are when they check on them but I really want to feel them so much and I am really getting impatient!!!

Hi there, good to hear from you. We are all doing well and only in the last few nights, have I had some "real" sleep. I have been averaging about 3 hours a night but for the last 2 nights, managing to sleep right through, except for the many toilet breaks...hehehe...I agree with you about getting in practice for the early morning feeds etc....maybe we will both be lucky and they will be good sleepers? Hah!

I too have noticed my feet and legs have been a bit swollen. I think its just the extra weight now...but they check my BP also everytime I go only because I have had a history of Pre-eclampsia. So far so good but I was meant to get my own BP thing to monitor it myself....but I figure it would always be high cause I will be worrying about it....? Are you still working even though your feet are sore and swollen? Has your Dr recommended that you finish any earlier? Maybe you should if you havent already? You are going to need all the rest you can get? Sorry to hear about the problems you have had with the flat. Gee the timing couldnt be any worse hey? Speaking of timing, Brett told me the other week he may only have about 2 months of work? Yikes Oh well we will cross that bridge when we get to it.

Other than that, the baby shower was great, tiring but good to see all my friends again. We got heaps of wonderful and practical things. I dont think we will need to buy baby wipes for about 6mths. This week I have to wash all the clothes and linen for bubs and then I can finally finish off the babies bag. Im worried I will go early so I really want to be ready and I want to get the room finished before too just in case I go in early and I dont want to come home and things are ready....did that make sense?

Anyway, you take care and get those feet up. I hope you are feeling ok other than that....Good luck with the move and dont you go doing anything that will bring the bubs on. Will be in touch again soon. I go again for another check up on Thursday but no scan this time. Scan in 2 weeks time (if I make it) hehe. My dad is coming over from NZ on 18 July so hopefully the twins will wait for him, if not, he said he will still be coming for 3 weeks....Yey....!

So on that note, you look after yourself. Hope the move goes smoothly. I will be in touch again soon. xx

Hi there, hows it going? Well we had another scan on 12/6 and everything is still going well. Diabetes is still under control and there is a slim chance they will be sugar dependant when they are born and I will just stop the needles straight away and they will monitor us all for the first 24hrs. The Dr says it could be any day though, just depends on them? They both have their heads down which to the professionals is an indication they are getting ready! Yikes....not long to go? I feel good and have had some better nights sleep lately. Still aching in the usual places, between my shoulder blades and down one side of my spine. One baby is heavier than the other so maybe its the weight on one side which is annoying me the most. I have had heaps of Braxton Hicks contractions and really notice them through the night I try not to complain too much but I too have been so tired I just start crying and hope that relief comes soon? I have been using a wheat bag which has really helped, have you got one? They are great. Have your Dr's said how long they will let you go for? We are booked in at 37weeks for a Caesar and I asked them if that is a definate and he said in his experience, it is for the best? I think we will all be well and truly ready by then if it doesnt happen beforehand?

Good to hear you will be finishing work soon. Sunday is my last day and then I'll be finished. I am having a baby shower on 21/6 so that will be nice. Alot of my friends I havent seen for ages will be coming along

As for baby bag, I am thinking I will be in for at least 3 days, if all is going well. I am just going to take my own nappies and wipes and enough outfits for 3 days? I dont know what they will give me at the hospital so better to take everything. They have their own suitcase cause I have to take so much stuff. I am taking baby bath stuff and some baby wraps, face washers just in case, some formula in case I cant breastfeed, bottles - gee sounds like I should just move to the hospital I know its hard to know what to do sometimes. I too feel a bit silly cause I am asking people alot of things but most of them are older and havent had kids for years....so lots has changed. I think its just better to be over prepared rather than not! You dont want to have to keep sending someone out to get something you didnt take? Im sure you will be just fine and once you finish work you will have more time to think of what you are going to need?

Well we have a 21st birthday tonight so I might get going and try to get some rest? It wont be a late night for me but I think I might put my feet up for an hour or so. You take care and i hope you are feeling good. Dont be ashamed to cry, its a very emotional time for everyone involved. How is your partner coping with everything? Mine is struggling with the sleep thing but it wont be for much longer, I hope. I think he's a bit unsure of how he can help me when I get upset or am tired and he worries too much about money and things like that...I try not to worry too but it is hard....cause i dont want him to feel responsible for everything...I think sometimes, everyone worries about the woman and they forget that its also happening to the men, its so hard! Anyway, you make sure you get some good rest when you can and I will on again in the next few days. Take care x
