Hey guys..... so a little bit about myself. I am 25 married to my wonderful husband Scottie of 2 years. I have a 4 year old daughter from a previous engagement, and my husband has 2 boys from a previous marriage. So with this baby we will together have 4 children. Needless to say we are finished!!!!! I am due May 2nd, with a baby girl, which we will name Sadie Madison. We are super excited and so ready to see her precious little face. My step sons are 15 and 9, so they are not at all even interested in the fact that they are going to be brothers again!!!! On the other hand my daughter Autumn is extactic!!!!!! She tells me everyday how much she loves her Sadie Madison......is that not just the sweetest thing you have ever heard, what a dear baby!!! I really hope to make some new friends by joining this site. I feel like I already know some of you guys as I have been following this site since I was about 5 weeks pregnant.

Well I had my monthly appt today and all is great. Baby is measuring about 3 weeks ahead, putting me at around 24 weeks but they kept my due date the same. I definatley can tell I am getting bigger, this morning I lost my breath tying my shoes!!! LOL My sweet little Autumn, said I am not fat I am just a little big. She is so sweet. You can definatley tell I am pregnant now, my husband says it looks like I am getting bigger by the minute. Pregnancy is really good to me, except for the weight gain. Food has never tasted better!!!! I could eat until I make myself sick!!! It seems like time is going by so slowly now.....I am so ready to see what our little princess looks like.

So I had to go to the Dr. today. I now have to go every Tuesday and every Friday until little miss Sadie decides to grace us with her presence. I have a blood clot in my placenta that they are having to watch really closley. It is fun to get to hear her heart beat twice a week and get a sonogram once a week, to see how she is growing. I just hate the drive to the hospital!!! All went well today, I had another NST. I am really ready to see my baby and know she is alright. I just hope I make it to term, to ensure that she can come home with me. I am feeling huge these days, I have already gained 28 lbs, and am now up to a whopping 202 lbs!!!! Feeling a little more depressed than I would like. I guess it is just all the stress, and the demands of a husband and 4 year old. It was alot easier to be pregnant when I didn't have any kids!!!! I can never get off my feet, or take a break. What I would give to have a full body massage!!!! Not to much longer now.....My Dr. said today that if I make it to 39 weeks that he would induce me!! YAY! So that means I will have an April baby. Well gotta go for now I will update later......

Never been to Alabama... Well, driven thru... Oh, nevermind, lol, I went to a bar that sat on the FL/AL border on the beach in Pensacola... Called the Floribama! That was yrs ago now, I really need to get home more often. I am from Tampa, so I don't get to go in the panhandle often. I went then to visit my the-boyfriend now-husband when he was TDY there...

MilMom2Be - Tuesday, 22 July
I'm from FL and miss it! We will be coming for a visit in september to meet the families! I am just going to lie to them about what is in her bottles in the future...

MilMom2Be - Tuesday, 22 July
Lol, actually been feeling crampy.. I am going to atke a pregnancy test when I get home tho. I have the Implanon, but got preggo twice on the pil so want to check.... God, I would love another, but I need some time! Daycare sucked, I almost grabbed her up and ran away! The idiots told me I cannot give her bottles with formula added in! I cannot feed MY baby what I know works well for her! And when I was walking out, she was fussy and hungry, so I offered to stay and feed her. The lady goes no, I would like to feed her, BUT I have to feed this baby first. She wakes up a sleeping baby to feed it before MY crying baby, all because their regs say they have to feed them in a certain order! Where the hell is the common sense? Oh well, I don't have any other options... And got called back into work in the middle of my sleep time! A bad day... How was yours?

MilMom2Be - Tuesday, 22 July
It is wonderful that your hubby is adopting Autumn, I have had an awful day and you reminded me that ppl can be sweet and accepting... Lol, sleep deprived and overly mushy!

brandi0881 - Tuesday, 22 July
Well I am 160 in a 12! Some times I can get in a 10. And before I got pregnant I was a 6. When I met Arty I was a 4 : ( I am not gonna eat right so maybe the working out will help. We did a family membership with my friend, her boyfriend and us. It is $59 a month. And you get a key. You can go any time you want. It is pretty cool, they have a tanning bed too!

brandi0881 - Tuesday, 22 July
LOL...stop saying that! I saw your hosp pics, you are not huge. Yea when I was like 21 girl I was fine! LOL! I was fit and cut. I got addicted to the gym. We had one at work. The ones I signed up with today has childcare included. They have a one way window where you can watch them but they can't see you!

brandi0881 - Tuesday, 22 July
I don't know then either. I was confused too cause if you read the content on the labels, th Enfamil with iron had the same amount as the Gentlease. It's weird!! I went and signed up at the gym today. I am forced to work out cause I signed a year contract...HA!

bamamaof4 - Tuesday, 22 July
New belly pic added!!! Ohhh!!! LOL.. Ignore the "MUCUS PLUG" pic!! Some of the girls in the chat room where talkin bout or askin bout what one looks like. THEY all look different, so, I posted mine!! HEHEH.. HEY!! Gotta be proud of that... Whoo HOoo.. OOH.. & Thursday July 24th @ 5 A.M, we will be headin to LDR!!! WHOO HOooo

Addi may skip a day some times. But that Goodstart stuff, does it have extra iron in it? If it does then thats the problem. We had to change Addis from Infamil with iron to gentle ease. Extra iron even stops adults up!

My in-laws are visiting for 2 weeks, and it feels like forever! I love that they are helping out so much, but it kinda makes me feel inadequate... And I need to go to the trouble of converting my pics so I can post on my page, I have SO many of Evangeline that I want to share! And Sadie is just a beautiful baby all around, of course ppl stop you so they can admire her! Did her big sister look alot like her when she was a baby?

brandi0881 - Monday, 21 July
Had to have been the peaches! They just want the money. They will take an x ray, just like they did Addi and of course found nothing! If she doesn't seem uncomfortable, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Like we talked about, it may just be lazy bowels and will require the stimulation.

brandi0881 - Monday, 21 July
That is crazy! Addi had 2 dirty diapers yesterday and 3 today! She never does that. I was changing her dirty diaper yesterday in one of the dresses I had tried on and on the back of the toilet cause they didn't have a changing station. And the second one I had to lay her on the floor at Dillards...LOL! It was bad!

MilMom2Be - Monday, 21 July
I work 1030pm to 0630am, Brittish time zone since we are stationed here... Baby gil will go into daycare for 3-4 hrs in the morning and same the next day so she can get adjusted, and MIL can watch her the rest of the day, hubby's on leave from work too, then wed she starts full time when they leave n hubby goes back to work... I know I am going to cry the first mornings, lol, I cried the first couple nights I left her with her dad! Oh, I am so jealous of Sadie's hair! Evangeline has hair, but nothing like Sadie's!!!

brandi0881 - Monday, 21 July
I just showed Arty that pic of Sadie laughing. He said she was sooo cute and had such a big laugh! I would so be giving her little pony tails all over her head...HA

brandi0881 - Monday, 21 July
I will buy you a bubble for them when I get Addi's....LOL!

MilMom2Be - Monday, 21 July
Lol, I guess no matter what all families have their downsides, and the grass is always greener on the other side! I am soo sleepy, at work right now, and reading on here is all that is keeping me going. I switch to day shift in August and can't wait! BTW, I think SAHM's are insane! In a good way! I love my daughter, but even 6 weeks was alot of alone time... You have to be so strong to be able to keep up with kids and babies 24/7, I don't think I could do it.... PLus I have a tendency towards laziness, if I were home all day the house would probably be in a greater state of disrepair than usual! If I just clean weekends then I always know the house is cleaned weekends, if I were home I would procrastinate and say, "oh, I can do it tomorrow, or the next day, or maybe the day after...." Lol, house actually looks great right now. MIL is visiting and has scrubbed the place spotless, even took my vacuum apart to "fix the suction", yeesh! Sorry, I think I mentioned I am at work and bored right? Sorry foir the novella!

Johna~ When Evangeline was 7 weeks, a week after I went back to work, I tried to nurse- and nothing, I cried as I drove to the commisary to buy soy formula, she was screaming the whole drive. It has taken me 5+ weeks but my supply is coming back oh so slowly, but my problem was not hereditary, it was the stress of going back to work on the midnight shift, getting no sleep because she didn't get into day care so then I took care of her all day and got 3-4 hrs of sleep when hubby got home before going back to work. Now that we have a routine, and Evangeline starts daycare tomorrow, I am hoping my supply comes back fully. If not tho, she seems to be doing fine with the suplementing with soy, and I have been mentally preparing myself for the fact that I may not be able to go as long as I would have liked. I have the opposite problem with my mom tho, she BF me and my brother while working, and does not understand that I am in the military, and cannot bargain with my boss for an extra long lunch to go home to nurse. Hell, I don't even get a lunch! She also told me if I got a epidural I was a wuss, but she forgave me for getting one on the basis that since I had pitocin it wasn't a natural labor anyway and then I had a c-section! Lol, she is a lil crazy, but I don't know how she will react if I have to stop BFing.... She is kinda militant about being a "natural mom". I almost envy you your non-pressure family....

brandi0881 - Monday, 21 July
Yea, I just had to! Glad I didn't insult her. I commented on your pic of Sadie you posted. I LOVED it. She has such a big smile. Looks like she is gonna have some Angelina Jolie lips. Gonna have to lock her up just like Autumn!

brandi0881 - Monday, 21 July
A cigarette was the culprit! We put them out on the bricks in front of the flower bed and then put the butt in the trash. Well I guess it was just so dry the fire just smoldered. I am so glad I came home when I did! And lol...dang you were running around like a mad woman! Check out that pic on the forum. I hope I don't make her mad by asking that, but that's scary!

brandi0881 - Sunday, 20 July
Ok so I got home from swimming today and my flower bed was on fire....NICE!!!!

brandi0881 - Sunday, 20 July
I didn't get a pic of Autumn?!?

brandi0881 - Sunday, 20 July
Well I am hoping I lose some weight and it has to be altered...HA! I did feel good tho cause I was the smallest out of all the girls and I am the only one that just had a baby...HA HA HA! These are estimated to be back by Sept.26 and the wedding is Oct.4...cutting it freaking close! Man, I had my niece and nephew last night. They are 8 and 2. I thought it was gonna be a handful with Addi too, but when we got home yesterday she laid down about 5:30 and slept until 6:30 this morning!! Shopping wore her out too!

Your daughter is so cute. I love the hair. I am so jealous of babies with hair, lol.
