Girl.. I am not even preggo and I get like nothing done during the day.. at least you have kids and preggo.. so thats an excuse. I am lucky if I get to load the dishwasher.. or put a load in the washer.. and it NEVER gets into the dryer!! haha I suck :(


preciousangels2 - Wednesday, 21 May
I dunno. My husband might know. I've only lived in MO since January 2004. My husband has lived here his entire life. Anyway, my first was 5 days late but that's all I can go by. That and my gut feeling. I think my gut feeling is just me saying I want him out now! LOL Or maybe it's just hope. Who knows. Guess we'll find out sooner or later!


preciousangels2 - Wednesday, 21 May
I wish I knew when my little man was going to make his grand entrance! I have a gut feeling that he'll be here a week or two early. Which is fine by me. I'm about done with this pregnancy! My actual due date is June 13th, which happens to be a Friday!! I used to live in Jefferson City but my hubby's job relocated us to Saint Joe last month. It's still in MO but just on the state line btwn MO and KS about 40 minutes north of Kansas City International.

I actually don't know what position my baby has been in. My doc has NEVER checked. She will next time, says there was the possibilitly of him still turning, so she didn't want to check. I can't wait for camping, but want to be close to home too. I am ready for the 3 day weekend though.


KariLynn - Wednesday, 21 May
A video moniter would be nice. Considering the baby will be in my room, and we only have a 1 bedroom apt I am not going to get a monitor. Well at this point at least. We don't have a Kohls. But am going to go shopping tonight, cause I need one. I just wish I knew how big my breasts are going get. I am just going to try a cup size larger, if its a little big, I figure with the nursing pads it will be so much more comfortable. I just can't wait to be done working and can stay at home for a while. I am so looking forward to that. I think that my baby turned. I think I felt his feet instead of the big bump I have been feeling. But I can't tell for sure. I hate that lol.

Sign up at huggies.com and pampers.com.
Thats where I get my coupons from. They also sent me sample diapers and stuff too :) The sample diapers and wipes go right in the diaper bag.. makes it easier :)
You can totally handle three girls!! It will all come back to ya.. Unlike me who has no clue.. but I am getting there.. haha.
At least its not twins or triplets.. I couldnt imagine trying to to twins or more! GOSH!


poprocksncoke - Wednesday, 21 May
The size 1 diapers are usually for 10+lbs I thought. Madeline is right about 8lbs now I would guess.. and the newborns still fit her fine. I think if I put the 1s on her she would leak all over. I would get a pack of two of the huggies newborn just in case.. you would hate to come home with her and have no diapers!! haha


3rdandfinal - Wednesday, 21 May
One of the only big things we bought brand new was the swing. I fell in love with the butterfly papasan swing as soon as I saw it, and I had to have it for her. Plus it plugs in, so NO BATTERY WORRIES! I hope you have a great time camping, a last little trip before the big event!


KariLynn - Wednesday, 21 May
Thats nice that you didn't have to take the strep test. Glacier Natl Park is the name of the big park in MT :) They are so lucky if they live close to there. I haven't even been there yet and have lived in MT for a year and a half. I hear that its gorgeous! I feel big too. Though I will admit that I got sunburnt this weekend, and even though it hurts, it kind of took my mind away from the pregnancy lol. It has been a nice couple days, until today, and I started to notice my back pain again :) Only 2 1/2 more weeks of work...YAY!! I can't wait to sit at home. I just hope to have a couple days for the baby. But I also want him here early lol. I love being a woman lol. It hasn't really felt like the baby is dropping any though. He feels like he is in the same place, but sometimes I feel pressure low. So maybe he is just starting?? I don't know. I think I need to take a nap. I am also trying to find a nursing bra, but not having any luck. Any suggestions on picking one out? Well back to work I go.


3rdandFinal - Tuesday, 20 May
I got the evenflo cuddle bear travel system. It is actually a loaner from my friend. She had a little girl last August and three of us went in together to get it for her. And the bedding isjust the butterfly set from Wal-mart. It just seemed like I spent so much with Taylor and Riley and then never really got a lot of use out of it, I hated to spend that much again. I am glad your friends are going to try to work it out, divorce is tough, I nearly went through one 18 months ago. Try not to go into labor in the travel trailer! lol.


poprocksncoke - Tuesday, 20 May
I will look for bumbo.. HAS to be pink? They have a purple color too I think :)
James works at Best Buy.. he is a supervisor there :)
OOHHH Have you looked at diapers.com? They have cheap diapers by the case and free shipping on orders over 50.00! And when I signed up for them.. they said if I gave people the code MAWA1006 they could get 5.00 off their order.. which is cool. They sell formula and baby supplies on there too.. Its kinda nice to get free shipping. That was the cheapest I have seen diaper prices.. the rest of the stuff is like normal Target or Walmart prices but still :)


poprocksncoke - Tuesday, 20 May
I need the enfamil gentlease. The enfamil with iron is what I was using.. but if I switch she gets all clogged up.. haha
But thanks for keeping your eye out.. its sweet of you :)


poprocksncoke - Tuesday, 20 May
I didnt see the monitor. I got the graco monitor from target that was like 30 dollars.. but it wasnt video or anything fancy. Just a reg monitor. Since our house is so small.. we almost dont need a monitor.. haha her cry rings throughout the house. She is being fussy today.. now she wont sleep unless I am holding her.. and when I finally get her asleep.. she wakes when I put her down hmpf.. oh well.. she is going to be one spoiled lil girl!! lol
I wish I could fit into my pre preggo clothes :( I DO fit into them..but my gut hangs over now, its sad. haha


poprocksncoke - Tuesday, 20 May
I wanted to get the bumbo seat with tray.. but I was given one at my shower.. sI think I can buy the tray seperate.Madeline had a big day out. I took her to my mom's school so Grandma could show her off to all the other teachers. HAHA she had a great time with her.
Well.. now this weekend I am not going to the lake. Hubby is.. my dad is.. and my brother.. changed to a guys weekend. I was kinda stressin about going anyways. She is still so tiny..
so My mom is coming this weekend to help me while James and the dogs are gone :)
I signed up on enfamils website so I should get coupons from there. the craigslist one was gone by the time i checked it.... but thanks!!! its so pretty out. I want to drag maddie's swing out but i know if I do, she will just fuss.. thats my luck haha


momofboys - Tuesday, 20 May
The Bumbo looks new it was $10! With the tray. Rainforest jumperoo was $35. I am dumb I only started buying used stuff with my 4th kid. All that wasted $!!! Funny thing is you hardly use any of that stuff. LOL! I want to get a used second fridge for the garage for extra meat and drinks.


poprocksncoke - Monday, 19 May
I switched to the Enfamil gentlease since she was so gassy! Seems to help her alot though.
I do have a bumbo seat... we will prolly start using that in a couple weeks when she gets her neck muscles under control.. haha she is still kinda floppy..haha


3rdandFinal - Monday, 19 May
I go back on the 29th because of the holiday and my doc is off a few extra days. The diaper bag is to cute, and the monitor would be awesome, I forgot all about needing one, lol. I don't remember using mine a lot with my first 2 though. Unbelievable as it is, lol, my diaper bag is pink and brown too. It was the first gift I got. My friend is a ebay addict.

So stupid question, why can't you have your baby naturally after you've had a c-sections? What if you were to go into labor before the 11th?


poprocksncoke - Monday, 19 May
we have a 2nd tier house.. but we have a dock and boat and stuff.. just have to walk down to it :) My hubby LOOOOVES to fish. Its hard to drag him off the dock. haha
James AND my brother both say the gun thing.. Poor girl haha.. She is getting bigger.. I cant really see it since I am here everyday with her..but I just took pics of her in the bath :) I do need to get new pics of her up.. I am slacking!!


3rdandFinal - Monday, 19 May
Ya, I went earlier. No action at all. no dilating, or thinning at all. I have to admit I was disappointed. I am hoping maybe him messing around in there might get something started, lol. How are you feeling? The travel swing was a good idea for the camper!


momofboys - Monday, 19 May
I wish I had someone I could trade boy clothes for girl clothes!! I bought my swing, a rainforest jumperoo, my crib and a bumbo on craigslist. I bought my matress new but we got GREAT deals!! A girl I used to work with gave me HUGE box of clothes Friday. I had to rumage through a bunch of it had stains, but I got a lot of stuff out of it! NICE coats. I LOVE hand me downs! Two of the boys have a red eye, at first I thought pink eye but it's not itchy. Either way Tim is taking them to the dr tomorrow to risky with a new born. TTYL!!


poprocksncoke - Sunday, 18 May
Uhm I actually heard about it in chat in here.. its more popular in the UK.. But I am glad that they do have it here :) I try to only use it when I REALLY need it. I feel like I should be able to calm her down.. and if I can't then I give it to her. Seems that the mylicon wasnt doing anything. This almost I can tell instantly that she feels better. The only thing that sucks is that it doesnt come with a dropper.. so I either have to put it in a bottle for her or try and spoon it in her mouth.. which doesnt work well.haha
My parents have a house at the ozarks. But.. we have two dogs.. my parents have a dog and my brother has two dogs as well.. so its going to be a crowded house that weekend. Its going to stress me out. .haha but I think we need to get away. I just hope its good weather for us down there. we could use a break. My mom will be down there with us.. so that might help me since I will have an extra hand at night. James just sleeps through it all.. so my mom will be up with me if I need her too.. which is nice :)
I am not looking forward to the teenage years with just one girl!!! My brother is very protective.. and I know James will be too.. so this poor thing is going to have boys scared to come over!!! I think I want one more.. and thats prolly it for me. It wont be for at least 2 years... hopefully.. I want to try and make sure she is outta diapers first!

Hey did you have a good appt? Did the strep test go alright? I had mine done on Wednesday. I didn't hear anything so it must have came back alright. I thought it would be more internal than it was, so was happy that it was as gentle as is was. I am ready for this baby to be here. I just don't want to be pregnant. I love feeling the baby, but hurt so bad from the stretching. Last night i was trying to get out of bed, and cried cause I hurt so bad. I just wish it wasn't so painful, otherwise I would be alright. I still don't know the position of the baby, the doc wouldn't check it because he could still turn. Oh well. Hopefully my next appt and I will know. The weather has been awesome. I am ready for the nice weather, and keeping the windows open all the time before it gets too hot. Though we are supposed to break a record today and hit 90. Might have to have Dan throw in the a/c for me. Is it hot in MO already? I remember spending a couple weeks there with my grandpa about my 7th grade summer, and me and my cousin had to walk everywhere. It was so stinkin hot. I don't miss that at all lol.


poprocksncoke - Saturday, 17 May
Gripe water is all natural.. it helps with gas and hiccups and colic. :) its inda pricey its like 11 bucks for a bottle.... but omg It works wonders for her.. they sell it at Walgreens.
We went to subdivision sale today and some yard sales. The weather is awesome today.. I wanted to get out in the sun for a while. Then I was so exhausted. haha.. but we got her in the stroller and walked! Didn't find anything great.. but it was still nice to get out with James and Madeline and spend time together. I am totally getting into this mommy thing.. haha which is weird. If you would have known me like 5 years ago.. you would NEVER think I would be here.. but I am loving it!!
I dunno where lost valley lake resort is.. but we go to the Ozarks alot. We are going there Memorial Day weekend. Maddie's first trip to the lake.. I am anxious about it haha.


momofboys - Saturday, 17 May
Yhea I don't mind spending a bit on them since it knocks out two bdays at once. You are getting so close, less than a month. Finally you will be able to bend over & breath easier.


poprocksncoke - Saturday, 17 May
Yea.. I got gripe water.. and I just gave it to her because she was acting all fussy like gassy again.. and BAM she is out.. I was like holy crap this is miracle stuff!!! haha hopefully it wasnt just a fluke!
Yea.. they had to give me the IV for strep B because my doc didnt note in my file if I had it or not.. but that was before I knew I had to have a c section. YAY you dont have much longer to go!!! You know, we are close.. I should give you some of Maddie's clothes when she outgrows them!! do you know how much Madlynn weighs yet?
