Today I have an appt with my dr to check for the heartbeat, etc. I've been spotting brown discharge the past 3 days so they want to check everything out to make sure all is okay. I'm so nervous, I hope the heartbeat is still strong and the baby is healthy. I will update as soon as I come home.

Wednesday, 28 Nov
Okay everything is normal and the baby is healthy. Got to hear the heartbeat again. It was 149bpm. So I'm so excited, we set the u/s appt to find out the sex for Jan 3rd. 4 weeks away! I cannot wait.

IT `S A BOY!!

i dont know if we have that milk over here in england...i have put him on aptamil easy digest formula its £9 a tin so a bit pricey but i hope its going to settle him and help with the nappies...im sure its a bit painfull for him to do n02's but they seem a bit easier now thankfully..it says on the tin it should make nappies more like a breast fed baby and its deff looking more like it....anyway thanks for you message...you little boy looks so cute i have just been nosing through your pics ha ha


azmommytobe - Monday, 16 June
I forgot to tell you, there is a good site called babycenter.com they email me every week on his weekly development


jenlove - Monday, 16 June
That's awesome! I really can't complain. Usually he only wakes up to eat. So hw sleeps from about 7 to 11, and then whenever we get him back to sleep until 2 or 3, and then up again around 6. One of us takes the 11 shift, the other the 2am. Usually my husband takes the 11, and then he can get a good block of sleep because he goes to work. Is he sleeping in your room? Crib or bassinet? Ethan will be 5 weeks on Wed. It does go by fast. Six weeks is supposed to be the mark, have you noticed any changes? If their going to get colic, it usually starts then, so they say. Let's hope not! We went to dinner too for father's Day. Ethan slept the whole time. It is nice to all go out as a family. I really enjoyed it. Hope you're having a great day!


IraqiMom - Monday, 16 June

Hello my fellow bottle-feeding friend! How are you guys? We are four weeks old already! Starting to go out more and more, I love it. What are you guys up to? Any plans for Father's Day?


jenlove - Friday, 13 June
 We have the same swing! Ethan loves it!


jenlove - Friday, 13 June
 You look great! He is so cute... looks so peaceful!


azmommytobe - Friday, 13 June
Aww, thanks! Your little one is beautiful! All the hair these kids have huh? LOL
To be honnest, I had heartburn one time. I thought I was going to have a bald kid but when I saw him I was like "is he mine?" hee hee
I had a ton of hair when I was a baby too. Does everyone comment on the hair, then the baby? lol it is too funny. DId you have alot of heartburn? Must be different in everyone.


weloveourbaby - Friday, 13 June
Thanks...but that was one of the first I tried. What I'm learning is he will take the bottle better from someone else. He still fights, but he will take it.


branbug - Thursday, 12 June

branbug - Thursday, 12 June

branbug - Thursday, 12 June

branbug - Thursday, 12 June
thanks for you post...i really appreciate it it was not my intention to hurt anyones feelings :(


dedra40 - Thursday, 12 June
Nothing new with me really. I'm just ready to see the pediatrician tomorrow. I think he really has reflux because he grunts/gurgles all night long and sounds like it hurts to lie flat. It sounds like he spits up stuff but when I check him there's nothing on his mouth. Poor thing loves to lie on an incline but hates being flat. He never makes those noises when inclined. I dunno.. I have so much to ask his doc. Its like when I hit 36 weeks and had so many questions for my OB. Now its his pediatrician that I look forward to seeing.. lol. How's your day been? Gotta go.. he's waking up and I still gotta pump for a few min before he gets up. Talk to ya later.


dedra40 - Thursday, 12 June
Thanks. Jesse took it and kinda did one of those "Hey look up here" things and I was just sitting there, looking at him sleeping so peaceful and I was so happy. He just kinda caught me at the right moment.


dedra40 - Wednesday, 11 June
Wow, how did you find out that he has protein allergies? Did they have to do a test?


firsttimemom528 - Wednesday, 11 June
He's here finally (o: Birth story and a pic is up! How are you doing??


IraqiMom - Tuesday, 10 June
hey girl how you doing? i been busy as you know and dont come on the web site alot... hope u doing great..


dedra40 - Monday, 9 June
Yeah I talked to my doc today about the soreness and she said that it was normal. She said to only be concerned if it got worse and worse. Thanks for checking out my page.. glad you liked the pics. It certainly was a memorable day. I have to admit though, he can be quite a fussy boy. He had some jaundice at the hospital so we had to supplement formula and he started to like the bottle a bit. Now that I'm pumping too, I have milk stored in bottles in the fridge. He's become pretty fussy at the breast now and breaks his latch often. I can't even get him to nurse much at all on one side. I get so frustrated and so does he and he'll start crying so I just give him another bottle of milk and it makes it worse. I'm trying to get in touch with my lactation consultant. I hope I can get him back to the breast soon. If not, I guess I'll be a pumping girl. Hows your baby feeding going?


karregis - Monday, 9 June
im good yup getting huge ... when to my baby birth class it was over long from 9 to 430 ohmy


jberrios - Monday, 9 June
Oh don't worry, I didn't take it that way at all ;o)
Besides my other two are 12 & 8 years old, so in a way I feel like I'm a newbie at this again...LOL. When we registered the other day for the baby shower I told my husband I felt lost and I couldn't remember what we would need or would be useful for the baby...hahaha. Looking back now we both joke that the kids are already grown and taken care of themselves...haha
Thanks for the comment! I needed that since I feel like a BIG fat gorilla and will be turning 30 at the end of the month ;o)


jberrios - Sunday, 8 June
I know the feeling, when my first was born I didn't realize how fast they grow, I had so many clothes with tags on them cus I would let him wear the same stuff over not really knowing he would grow out of them so fast, so I ended up giving away alot of new stuff...haha! lesson learned I've been feeling sick to my stomach lately though, like in the beginning of my pregnancy which is weird cus I didn't get sick with my other two. Well like they say every pregnancy is different.
As far for his kidney, when we went to my appointment this past Wed they didn't check for it in detail, all they did was make sure that the cyst wasn't getting bigger and check the amniotic fluid and weight of him, and check my cervix to make sure I was dilating early. They say that the cyst might be covering his kidney or possibly the kidney may be lower in the pelvic, or may not have the left kidney at all. I try not to worry to much about it and let God handle this
Well keep in touch, I know life now is probably busy and chaotic with the lil one but as always cherish every moment with him, it really does go by so fast!
Take care.

Oh and thanks for the pic comment, we just celebrated our one year wedding anniversary this past Monday. We got married on a private beach and went back there to watch the sunset...it was so beautiful!
