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.

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?

No, no plans really, we normally just have some family over and grill out. We live about an hour away from Kentucky lake, but I try to avoid it on holiday weekends, way to many boats out. We aren't really outdoorsey people either. lol, I hate bugs, and sweating. Taylor was due on May 20th and I had her on the 19th, I went into labor all by myself on her. Riley was induced a week early because my doc was getting married and going on his honeymoon around my due date and I didn't want anyone else to deliver him. He has been my ob/gyn since I was 14. I kind of feel like I will go early, maybe the first week of June, I go see him on Monday, I am hoping he will check me and maybe there will be some progress, but at the same time I don't want my two girls to have to share a birth month, plus my b-day is the 30th of this month, so that will put all 3 girls in the family born in the month of May! I am actually scared to death of this sleepover thing, she has had 1 girl at a time stay, but never more then that. I am going to take them bowling, and then we're getting pizza and having cake at the house, then I figured I would let her pick out some movies to rent. I am so hormonal right now, I'm afraid I might end up screaming at someone elses kid. lol. Plus I drive a pt cruiser so I am going to have to borrow the radio station van that has big lights on the top of it, and Y107 down the sides and back of it, lol. Ok, so I am rambling and have taken up way to much of your page, lol. oh....I have a kodak easy share digital, it is just nice enough to take good pics, but not so nice that I can't figure out how to work it, lol. ttyl

He works for a company that tears up old highways to get them ready for new pavement. He's out of town quite a bit, but it works out ok, because the kids are easier to cook dinner for then her is, lol. What sucks about it is the Gov of our state is trying to get casinos legalized in kentucky so a lot of the money that would go to fixing the roads is being held back. I can't image that much square footage, we have 1700 sq ft and it is always messy, especially now that I have no motivation to clean. I get little spurts here and there but it doesn't last to long. Next weekend Taylor is having a sleepover for her 7th b-day, so I am not even gonna bother trying to clean until after that, lol.

Sometimes I get concert tickets, or tickets to the circus if they come nearbye, and every year we get a set of 4 holiday world tickets, which is pretty nice since we really don't get to take vacations. I would love to try staying home, I was in between jobs for a few months once, that is about the length of by stay at home mommyhood. My hubby has a really good paying job, but it is seasonal, so during the winter months he draws unemployment until it warms back up, and we couldn't live off of it. If it was a year round job, I could stay home, but oh well. Maybe some day. What does your hubby do for a living?


3rdandFinal - Friday, 16 May
I work at a little radio station here in my hometown. I do all the office work, so I get to sit and prop my legs up most days, but it is taking it's toll on my lower back and butt, lol. I thought about taking off in another week or so, but I only get 4 weeks of my maternity leave paid, so I am trying to hang on as long as I can stand it. I'm actually kind of ticked today though. Bill Clinton is here at our fire department today making a speech, and everyone left the big fat pregnant chic all alone to watch the building while they went to watch him. Not that I wanted to go stand in a crowded parking lot and see him or anything. I just thought it was kind of inconsiderate of them. Boy I sound really whiney today don't I? LOL. I know you are a SAHM, what is that like?


3rdandFinal - Friday, 16 May
How are you feeling today? When I woke up this morning I felt like she maybe had dropped a little, but now I don't think so. I keep reading all of these comments about women dropping, and losing their plugs, but I havn't seen a single sign! Feel like I'm gonna be preggers forever. But hey, less then 4 weeks for you!!!! TTYL


poprocksncoke - Friday, 16 May
I bought a lansinoh pump which worked well. It was a dual pump too so I got milk fast with it. She went to the doc on Monday and she weighs 7.6lbs now. But her first 1 month appt is in a little over a week. I cant believe its been almost a month already. man..
Doc said its normal. she suggested gas drops or karo syrup or something like htat.. I dunno if its going to work but I will try it!!! I am going crazy. I just want a happy baby :(


poprocksncoke - Friday, 16 May
Yea I tried that.. I am thinking now that she might have reflux. She struggles and squirms ALL day like she has to poop.. and never does.. she poops like 2 times a day.. haha and its not constipated.. so I dunno.
I am stopping breastfeeding too. I cant be up all hours feeding and pumping and doing all that. I am so engorged right now.. its not even funny.. they are MASSIVE and they hurrrrrt. I think I am going to try the gassy and fussy formula.. and see if that helps her out. Poor thing is NEVER comfortable and I feel so bad that I cant do anything for her.


3rdandFinal - Thursday, 15 May
St. Charles sounds really familiar. I was pretty young when we lived there. I was an army brat, so we moved quite a bit when I was little. You sound like me. I would love to live out where I can let my kids run free in the yard. I would love to build a house the way I want it. The one we are in now is really starting to fall apart and it is driving me nuts! lol


momofboys - Thursday, 15 May
Well we are renting the water slide so it will only be up for one day, it's $175. To purchase one is $350 or more. YIKES!! I did a bunch of reading & I think they only kill your grass if you leave them out, even if we would have bought one we would've taken it down after each use. My MIL is a trip. She is no skinny minnie. She should know better she has 3 boys. That is just motivation to eat right and slim down as fast as possible. I am not a good cake baker, I would like to bake an awesome cake for the boys bday. They just never look like they did in my mind. LOL!!


poprocksncoke - Thursday, 15 May
she takes a binky sometimes.. its just that she fights sleep ALLLLLLLLLL day. I mean.. I am all for her being awake and active.. but she tries not to nap from like 10a-9p? hell no.. lol But 1p she is screaming and I cant console her.. so I call hubby crying.. and he takes his sweet time coming home.. because I mean, who wants to come home to a screaming baby and crying wife.
Now she is swaddled tight.. hoping she will fall asleep. I have rocked... sang.. bounced... walked.. ev erything and she just sits there awake. ugh... I suck.


3rdandFinal - Thursday, 15 May
I live in Kentucky really close to the Indiana border. I used to live in Illinois about an hour from St. Louis. How close are you to St. Louis? We only have a 3 bedroom house, and my husband didn't think our boy needed to share his room with a girl, so we have my 7 year olds room split with her bed on one side and the baby bed on the other. It is still kind of weird to see the baby bed and all the little clothes hanging up, we hadn't planned on having anymore kids, so I am still trying to adjust to the idea. Guess I only have a few weeks left to get used to it, lol.


poprocksncoke - Thursday, 15 May
Oh I am having my nerves tested on an infant that WILL NOT SLEEP.
She is alright at night.. she will pretty much go from 11-3 eat and then 3-5.. But then she fights sleep the rest of the day and gets all colicy in the afternoon and screams for hours. So I am not having the best of times. She seems to be struggling to poop lately.. but not coming out contstipated like so I dunno what to do for her. I am kinda at wits end right now.. She gets the hiccups contsantly.. which makes her even more frustrated.. ugh .. lol sorry to complain!!


3rdandfinal - Thursday, 15 May
My husbands name is Roger, he is an x-box addict, I swear if we didn't have a router hooked up to the internet, I wouldn't ever get online, lol. How long have you been a member here? I just found out about this place 2 days ago, and I wish I had known sooner. I am already addicted to checking it every 5 minutes, plus I am learning that most of my complaints are pretty normal. I have a myspace but it is starting to get old, so I guess this is my new addiction, lol. Hoping it will make time go by faster. ttyl


3rdandfinal - Thursday, 15 May
I have a lot of pubic bone pain. Doc says it is where my bones are loosening up preparing to seperate for the baby to come out, but it has been going on since about my 4th month. Something else weird, drop the first and last letter off your babies name and you have my babies name. We are naming her Adalyn Elizabeth. Freaky. Elizabeth covers 3 out of 4 grandmothers middle names. I am sorry to hear about your grandma, double hard, being around the holidays and you being pregnant.


3rdandfinal - Thursday, 15 May
That is so weird. My oldest will be 7 Monday and my youngest just turned 3 last month, so all 3 of our children will be like months apart, weird. I checked out your page, they are beautiful girls. Do you have a name picked out for the new little one?


feltkoo23 - Thursday, 15 May
They have it sch. 4 days after my due date. Which I am hoping they change. My first was 2 weeks early so I am hoping for this one to be early. My pelvic bone is mis shaped so there is no way that a babys head can fit through it. Therefore resulting in a c section


feltkoo23 - Thursday, 15 May
They scheduled it for the 18th and I am hoping that they cahnge it. Not that it matters because I know that I will be in labor before the 18th. My first preg. resulted in an emergency c section. In my opinion it wasn't horrible. YOu will def. need assistance for the first week or two. I remember that the hardest thing for me was getting out of bed and stuff. Pregnant bed rolling is much easier and less painful. But the more that you move around and get used to it, the easier it gets.


3rdandfinal - Thursday, 15 May
I feel the same way. I don't remember my other two being this difficult. I feel like I'm 100 years old! Are you having a scheduled c-sec for medical reasons? It seems like a lot of women are opting to just schedule a c-, I've thought about it, but I don't know yet. Congrats on the third girl, how old are you first two?


KariLynn - Thursday, 15 May
Hello :) Did you get your hubby a cake? The last minute things sound just like me lol. I didn't send my mom a mother day card until last friday, and she lives in another state lol. OOPS :) I think I have almost everything I need. There are still a few things that I have to get, but they are just mostly for me. I am glad things are going normal for you. I was talking to a lady last night and she is due june 11th and is already dialated to 2, but she has been having a lot of problems. Just makes me think that this could happen any time and I should get everything completed as much as I can. I am with you on the tired thing. I don't sleep well at night, so then I am just tired all day, then everything just repeats itself!! Its kind of annoying, but only 1 more month. We can do it lol.


feltkoo23 - Thursday, 15 May
I am totally with you. I had an U/S today because he has been breech, well he is head down, but his feet are next to his head. So i get kicked on the side and it is horrible. The thing that sucks is when they sch. my c section they were going with me due on the 22nd. According to my ultrasound( and what I have been telling them all along) I am due on the 14th. I am 4'11 Im not having a 10 pd, 22in baby. So my c sec is sch. for June 18th. I know I will go before then, but I just wish that my c section was sch. in like 2 weeks. Then I would know for sure that I have no longer than 2 weeks. Its killing me not nowing how much longer I have.
