Hello Everybody
Hope you are all well and happy and enjoying pregnancy or mummyhood. I'm in my 18th week and am so happyyyyy to be here..ecstatic actually (ok-ok, so maybe there are no words to describe how truly happy i am..but those will do for now). It seems like it's taken forever to get to this week but I love my angel soooooooo very much and i can't wait to meet her in person :o) ...she's going to be the best birthday present EVER!!! (my birthday is 6 days after my due date)..YAY!!!
About me:
Well..i'm 31, single and so happy to be a 1st-time mummy2b. 4 years ago i had a brain tumor removed, a few weeks later i was whooshed back to the hospital because i had to have a shunt inserted for my newly discovered hydrocephalus. during that time one of the doctors told me i would never be able to have children..i was sad but took it on the chin and buried the hurt away deep inside.
A few months ago i discovered i was pregnant, i could not believe it! I was happy but i didn't want to get too happy because after thinking for years that you can't have children....you start to believe that maybe that's the way it's going to stay. especially when you hear all the docs saying the first 12 weeks are the most difficult...why can't they just be positive? why do they have to share the worst-case scenerios? hmmmmm? anyways..i'm 18 weeks now and still can't be totally 500% happy. I'm just scared that if i get my hopes up..things might go wrong..i know that's not exactly good but it's scarey!
My Angel.. Jannige Atianui
I'm naming my baby-girl after her mummy :o) actually the whole name covers 5 generations (maybe more). I love my baby girl with all my heart and i can't wait to meet her.
I'm really nervous about my lil angel after everything 'medically' i've been through, so if you could PLEASE cross your fingers and toes, pray, wish or whatever else that will bring positive energy to me and my baby....please do it. Thank you :o)
Take Care Everyone and I wish you all the VERY best!!!

Yay!!! I'm in week 19 :) woohoooo *does happy dance* 10 days to go before i can see/hear my baby :) *does happy dance again* hope all you beautiful mummy's are well and totally happy!!! Thank you for reading..take care (((hugs))))Wednesday, 28 Nov
*Does happy dance* i've been to my 20 week scan today and my baby seems to be happy and healthy...yipppeeeee!!! however, found out today that the baby boy i 'thought' i was going to have is actually a girl!!! I'm a bit sad because i feel like i've lost my boy..but i'm sooooo happy that my baby is doing great and that's all that REALLY matters to me!!! I know it sounds weird to say it feels like i've lost my son when i never really had him, BUT..for the last few months i honestly thought i was having a boy!..i had his name ready, i could see him and i thought i could feel 'HIM'. but please don't get me wrong I love my baby-girl with EVERYTHING i have/with all my heart & soul! i just hope she knows that and understands my temporary sadness. I wish i could add pics of her but the scanner didn't do a very good job as far as letting me see my baby move or getting decent pics. Well, that's that for now. Thank you for reading. Keep smiling and stay beautiful! (((hugs))))

Yayyyy, I just turned 22 weeks today and am sooooooo happyyyy. My baby's kicking more often and it's the BESTEST feeling..EVER!!! it really is a HUGE peace of mind to feel her moving around. I have my meeting at the hospital this week (not exactly sure why, i think it may be for my hydro) Keep smiling and stay beautiful everyone ((((hugs))))
Tuesday, 11 Dec
Well the last couple of days i've been stressing out!!! haven't really felt my baby move. However!!!.. just got back from my doc and she had a doppler so i got to hear my babys' heartbeat AND a kick (which i didn't feel)..such a relief!!! I'm on 'Cloud 10,089' lol. doc said my angel could just be turned around towards my back. i'm sooooo hap-hap-happyyyyyy! Keep smiling and thank you for reading everyone (((hugs))))

Went to my 1st obste appnt today. everything was going great until i asked about my 20wk scan. apparently my baby 'could' have a hole in her heart. the report said the scan was blurry so they couldn't be 100% sure and that the 'anomaly' in question was very small. I have to go for a scan to be definite which hopefully will be in the next 2 weeks (cross fingers and toes it's before xmas). I've shed a few tears today but am trying my best to keep positive. Please PLEASE cross your fingers and toes, pray or wish (whatever works would be very VERY appreciated!!!) for my baby to be well and healthy. *thank you for reading* ..stay beautiful and take care. (((hugs)))Saturday, 15 Dec
23 Weeks today..YAY!!! So glad to be here but i don't really feel any different. hopefully my baby will be kicking alot more from now on (or at least soon). And i'm supposed to ring the hospital on Monday to find out when my scan is(to confirm my babys' heart condition). I wish it's going to be next week. (((hugs)))) p.s to all the fabulous & Amazing people who have sent me encouraging & supportive thoughts and comments...."Thank You with all my heart!!!" ((((hugs))))
Tuesday, 18 Dec
Found out today that I have my appointment next Thursday 27 to find out about my babys' heart condition. I'm sooooo nervous but am happy and priviledged to have alot of supportive and encouraging comments to refer to for a boost of positive reassurance and a smile on my face. 'Merry Christmas Everyone' Stay beautiful and Be well. (((hugs)))) p.s my midwife did the sweetest, nicest thing today, she dropped me off a huge box of goodies..including some things for my angel..she's been totally Amazing!! but it was such a nice surprise to get her gift.Tuesday, 25 Dec
Your eyes might be brown,Your eyes might be blue,
My imagination runs wild..with images of you.
Your hands & your feet,How small they must be,
When you`re placed in my arms...Whose face will I see?.
I'm being blessed with an angel....a beauitful girl,
I can't wait for the day that you're placed into my world.
My small baby girl so precious and sweet,
You've been sent into my life ....to make me complete.

dixiemama2be - Tuesday, 25 Dec
thanks! you too! and yes it is strange. but it is one of our few moments left to sit b4 the little one arrives! your name for her is gorgeous. Mine will be Jenna Lynn. Have a great new year!
dixiemama2be - Tuesday, 25 Dec
hey and merry xmas:) we are pretty close in weeks. i cant tell you WHY you only feel your little one when you are sitting or laying down but i cant tell you that it is the exact same for me. When im up ..nothing. but almost as soon as i sit or lay down for more than 5 mins.. its insane. hope that helps.

Don't worry, I feel baby the most when I am relaxing too - she even wakes me up at night lately! I've also heard that when you are on the go, it sort of rocks the baby to sleep. I have an anterior placenta as well, so it took a little longer to feel her in the first place, but now I feel her everyday! She is very busy.
moonsmom - Monday, 24 Dec
Hi, that's mostly when I feel my little guy too. I have an anterior placenta where the placenta lies in front of him so I am not able to feel as much movement. Have you ever been told that? That could be why. It's not a problem for the baby and possibly helps protect him, not sure on that. Good luck and Happy Holidays!
kikimc - Monday, 24 Dec
hey juniperbaby- i was worried that i wasn't feeling my baby a lot at first- but then i was told that if you move around a lot during the day you are pretty much rockign your baby to sleep- when you are still and relaxed at night is when you can feel all of the kicking! Don't be worried- I was for a while but now the little guy seems to have some sort of schedule!
TiffyW - Sunday, 23 Dec
No problem! I enjoy spreading love... And you have tons of positive energy... Thank you for your compliments! Have a great one - We will stay in touch..
callowaymom - Saturday, 22 Dec
OK..you're in New Zeland :0) I was reading your comment about it being so hot and Im trying to grasp that in my head... its freezing and snowing and icy and raining here and I havent seen the temp. hit over like 40 in a while now :0) kindof funny hearing someone actually complain about the heat for a change :0)maybe we should trade places for a week or so just for a change! haa ha
jennya4 - Friday, 21 Dec
Hi, I saw your post regarding the baby's movements. I am now 27 weeks. I started to feel the baby at about 20 weeks. Little movements that only I could detect. Then as the weeks have passed, they have gotten stronger and much more during the day/night. She is getting very strong. Since you are in week 23, there is still some growing to do in there and the movement should pick up in strength and intensity. Its when you don't feel movement for more than a day that you should be worried. Good luck to you!
lisa-82 - Friday, 21 Dec
i'm 27wks and prolly around 25wks i was feeling him move around or kicking/punching all the time!!! for me its mainly in the morning or at nite...luckily i havent had any issues w/ sleeping yet-thankfully he sleeps when i do and he's up when i am. =)

Hey there. Well arn't you a walking miracle. I'm so happy for you. Your energy and positivity is infectious. I just know your baby girl will be fine. How could she not be when her mum is so wonderful. It'll be sweet. Take Care. :)
LC Melbourne - Tuesday, 18 Dec
Good luck with Thursday! Everything will be fine :-) I am getting another ultrasound on thursday we can't wait any longer to find out the sex. Hopefully this time it will cooperate! Stay happy
lilmami8508 - Monday, 17 Dec
thanks for the encouragement. i need that sometimes. i never felt my baby actually kick, just moving. i work all day so if he does move i wont feeling him, but i was laying in bed last night and i rubbed my stomach to wake him up and i think i felt him move. it still feels kinda like a gas bubble, just a little stronger. so sometimes i worried that thats what it is.... i guess i just gotta wait and see what happens. thanks again!
irish-cat - Monday, 17 Dec
Hey there Juniprbery really am thinking about you. did you get the date yet that you will be scanned again ? My little brother (well he is 24 now, so really not so little) was born with a hole in his heart and the doctors told my prents to never put him under stress and all that kind of thing. The hole closed up in no time and he went on to be, would you believe ..... a rugby player of all things. So you see if your little princess does have a hole in her little heart - which has yet to be confirmed it could easily close up very soon after she is born. Ill keep you in my prayers and i am crossing everything for you. Lots of hugs and kisses cat xxxxxx
staceyp - Monday, 17 Dec
