MY BIG ULTRASOUND - JUN 6TH - CANT GET ANY BETTER :)

After a long wait (not really, but felt that way) it was finally the big day, and we were sooooo anxious to see our lil baby again. We were kinda ready that if the baby didnt co-operate to show the goodies..LOL . But gosh the baby was soooo active, and kicking all over the place and I was really able to relate to the kicks throughout the entire u/s thingy. The u/s tech was laughing at how active the baby was and I asked her if it was possible for us to know what lil baby was, and she said if "it" co-operates. After a few measurements, she was like whoa there you go, and even before she said anything..I knew it...IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL LIL SOCCER PRINCESS SDK_ItsAGirl.gif...lol, she weighed 13oz which was very good but too bad that they did not give me the measurement of her they said it was tuff to get the measurement coz the baby was curled up and was all over the place..oh yes she was...my lil pumpkin, I cant really wait to hold her in my arms. The dad to be was soooo happy to see his lil girl yawn, kick and suck her thumbs and what not lol, but he always knew and hardly felt that it was a girl, and yes he was right :) It feels sooo good, and finally we are able to relate to her soooo much like never before, it is a gr8 feeling. We already kinda have a name in our mind for the lil kicker, but still not saying it out loud as we r still debating abt the same. I can really feel that m love for her has grown even more and I CANT WAIT TO SPOIL THAT LIL BRAT....oh my darling lil princess :)

SEQUENTIAL SCREENING - 14 APR 08 - Bubba waved at us :)

We went in for a 1st trimester sequential screening which tests for down syndrome, trisomy 18 and neural birth defect, results will be coming in a week or so. But apart from all that I was really glad that I decided to take the appt coz I got to do an detailed Ultrasound - oh boy what a beautiful day was that - they showed the baby bit by bit, part by part - we saw our lil bubba's face in a much closer view,they showed us his/her lil arms, fingers, legs, toes, eyes, nose, ears, spine, heart, stomach, frontal view of the skull and what not. But our lil bubba was one stubborn kid..hehe..he/she was fast as sleep and wouldnt co-operate with us to measure his skin behind his/her neck even after that u/s tech poking my tummy and rolling me over multiple times...lol, lil bubba was having leg crossed and gave us a wave...it was such a beautiful sight. Both I and my hubby were literally smiling showing all our pearly whites :P. Lil darling was measuring right on for 13wks & 1days measuring 3inches with a good hearbeat rate of 158/min...and YAY we did hear the heartbeat, it was sounding like a train on the track :D, plus after all this fun day they us about 6 beautiful u/s pictures with good profile on our lil baby, cant wait to see him/her soon again...but that is not until May 12th, let the countdown begin :)

Hey,

Hubby is much better now...He will be resuming work from Tuesday onward..

Dont get disappointed, you can call your parents once ur in laws leave so that you can rest for additional months

Thats true yaar doing by ouself is gonna be real difficult but we have no options...

My baby shower is already over..actually we dont have any celebration before the baby is born but few of my friends here threw this baby shower for me...

I'm also waiting for 2 weeks to get over and I'll be back home...relax , sleep, eat,...


nJoy being home!!!
Take care



NorthWave - Friday, 29 August
hey!

So yeah I am spending the day in the nursery today :) More painting to do and drawing! i love it! And thanks for the comments on my talents :) hihi. Right now it is actually a little cold here ... ans I am loving it! It feels awesome... We went camping the last 3 days and it was only about 20 degrees out... and sunny! It was wonderful. So how is you and baby?? My babe is keeping me awake at night now... when he decides to go on a kicking spree... it hurts!!! He kicks my sides... where it is not thick... and man! does it ever hurt. But I'm always happy to feel him move.. better that then no movements. Now that would be horrible :p Anyway let me know how you 2 are doing! Talk toy ou later!!


t555rm - Friday, 29 August
Ooh, have fun sleeping in. Altho' nowadays, I hate to go to bed and can't wait to get up in the morn...coz of my aches and pains


emmaflower987 - Friday, 29 August
THANKS! and yea, it was a HUGE relief lol!


Nov*08baby - Friday, 29 August
Hi Rathi, i'm from week 28 and can completely feel your pain about not knowing the baby's size... I had my last ultrasound at 20 wks, and no more!! My MD took measurements and all the things you're supposed to do to speculate the size of the baby, and at my next appt I tried to get it out of my docs but they played dumb. Everyone, I mean EVERYONE else I know who is pregnant got a weight estimation, so I know how frustrating it can be, and I really am dying to know, especially since people seem so shocked that I'm not due next week! LOL


Shaymika1987 - Friday, 29 August
I too get pain when I lay on my left side. They always recommend that you lay on that side because you can get good blood flow but my hips hurt so bad from where they are spreading. I feel more comfortable on my other side


Shaymika1987 - Friday, 29 August
You can really get in anywhere Walmart, Kroger, whereever you shop really. Now no cheap stores will carry it it's expensive.


t555rm - Thursday, 28 August
Rathi, I too can't sleep on my left side...my hip hurts like hell, so i've given up on my left and just sleep on my right. Am using 3 pillows now, one each on either sides like an infant LOL so that am cushioned ...and of course my body pillow to sling my legs over. Gosh...what v have to go thru to have a baby ! I was never uncomfortable before but ever since i hit my 31 st week, things have been tiring and ...just plain achy for me. Also hormones are running high...Oct, am sooo ready for u !


jblueyes17 - Thursday, 28 August
I have one of those pillows too, I also have a large wedge that i got at Linens N Things for under my hips and my belly...double support! I know...I can't wait to sleep normal again! I was telling my hubby the other night, I prob won't even sleep on my back for a while after the baby is born because I'm so used to not being able to!


readyforbaby - Thursday, 28 August
Thank You


midget gem - Thursday, 28 August
i've been getting slight pains on my left when i lay on that side actually... having to make do with sleeping on my back or on my right, even though have always prefered being on my left... only had scans at 12 and 20 weeks, and not being given anymore... did get a 4D scan at 28 weeks though, and was hoping because they said the baby growing fast at that scan, that if i dropped hints with my midwife, she might get me another 2D scan, but nope, don't think i'm getting another one lol... still fitting in all my clothes as well, some are getting slightly tight, but they still quite small sizes... still fit in some UK size 10s and 12s, so not even having to get proper maternity clothes...


emmaflower987 - Wednesday, 27 August
Thank for your comment.. i did eat but i didnt eat anything sugary so now im just waiting on the results! Good luck with your pregnancy!


suhana - Tuesday, 26 August
I'm planning to work untill 12th of Sep and then quit...I will be home for some time...

I haven't started with washing cloths and decoration n all...I'm a real lazy person

Are you expecting someone from India?? I'll be all by myself and hubby...

Take care Dear,


Eloises-Mummy! - Tuesday, 26 August
Hey how are things going? 32 week, wow not long now. Getting excited. Im all broody again but i have to fight the erge lol.


Shaymika1987 - Tuesday, 26 August
The brands of detergent that I use is Dreft or Ivory Snow, don't really know about the washing of the bottles or anything, but make sure you do preboil them before feeding your baby with them.


suhana - Monday, 25 August
Hey,

How are u doing..My husband is having pneumonia and I'm back home...

I read ur questions: for baby clothing I think you should go for Dreft and you can get this from BabiesrUs...Abt utensiles I'm not very sure but u can explore the BabiesrUs section...
Hope you pregnancy is keeping you cool and healthy...Are u planning to work till ur due date??

Take care,


margysd - Monday, 25 August
Dear Friends,
Tonight was one of those sooo cute moments. Elsa has been smiling for weeks now, but tonight when she was with her father, she literally laughed out loud. Her voice sounded like an angel. Luckily, I was right there with the camera capturing her beautiful smile. Posted on my page are her latest pictures, both on the front page and in the photo’s section.
Take care, Margy


t555rm - Sunday, 24 August
Hahaha, yes am enjoying my new home and my 'alone' time...but can get a lil boring too. But time does seem to fly faster these days. So u must be really lookn fwd to yr maternity leave. When do u plan to go back to work ? And luckily, I don't have stretch marks...don't know if they are yet to start appearing but so far so good and am glad. Ummm... not sure if they'll actually go away once they come .I've heard that using Bio Oil is good to reduce the appearance of these marks. U'll get it in Walgreens or Longs.


NorthWave - Saturday, 23 August
Hi!!

I'm doing great! How bout you? The nursery is getting really nice... i did a monkey also... I am not taking pictures of it until I am done :) And right now I can't work on it cause we have family over and they are sleeping in that room. No biggie! It's a break for me. hehe.Right now it is something like 37 degrees in NB, I am dying!!! haha. (celcius btw) So yeah that is pretty much it for me! Let me know how you are doing and take apic of our belly you :p !! haha Talk to you later


t555rm - Friday, 22 August
Hello there...were u away for a while ? I've been doing great...week 31 almost over already ! Are u going for any childbirth prep classes ? We have signed up for 2 classes starting Sept 7th. My husband is more into it than I am...if not for him I doubt if I'd have enrolled


Eloises-Mummy! - Friday, 22 August
hey how are things going?


suhana - Friday, 15 August
Hey,

How are u doing Dear???Long time no see...is everythink okay???

Take care,




NorthWave - Thursday, 14 August
Thx for your comment :) I can't wait till it's all done and also can't wait till we can put little Evan in his crib!! It's taking FOREVER!!!! Can't wait to see him! How are you feeling?


TracyBo4 - Tuesday, 12 August
Thank you! I have a feeling he will be a bit big. He was measuring 32 weeks 3 days and I was only 30 weeks 2 days and I know my dates are right!


MALACHIsMOM - Tuesday, 12 August
About bottle feeding. My son was exclusivly bf until 4 weeks when I had to go back to work, then he got formla during the day in the Avent bottles and always bf when I was around. I pumped at work to. I like the Avent and the whole BPA thing wasn't discussed 3 years ago. I am doing the same this time. I am going to use Playtex drop ins or the Avent drop ins. They have a wider nipple which I feel like helps the baby go between the real thing and bottle.
