Caleb is almost 4 months old now!! I can't beleive it! He is so strong and full of energy. He started laughing a few weeks ago. He already has a tooth coming it i noticed it about 3 weeks ago! Man i can't over how fast they grow!!!! When i put him in his bouncy seat he just bounces and bounces he LOVES it!! Any ways ladies let me know how your little ones are. I can almost say i am ready for another one!!!

FOUND OUT FEBUARY 15TH THAT I AM 6 WEEKS PREGNANT!!! OMG I CAN NOT WAIT TO BE A MOMMY!!!

April 13th

I am 14 weeks and 3 days now! My husband and I are VERY excited. This is the first for both of us. We have been trying for a little around 2 1/2 year now, we both knew we wanted kids with each other so we started trying and finally!!! I pray for a healthy baby boy or girl!I have had 2 scans already, at 6 weeks i had some spotting, but all is good now. We saw the heartbeat, we couldn't hear it yet. I go back April 10th hopefully we can hear it then. I hope everyone enjoys their pregnancy. Best wishes to all!

We heard the heartbeat tuesday april 3rd!!! Very exciting. I go back the 24th and then May 15th we find out the sex...hopefully a girl! If not that is ok we will be happy with what ever god provides us with. Hope every one is doing well!

April 23rd...today i am 16 weeks we go to the dr. tomorrow i hope to find the sex of the baby, it may still be too early. My husband and i are very excited. I am feeling great just still a little tired from time to time. Anyways just thought i would update. Hope everyone is smooth sailing! HAPPY PREGNANCY! =)

April 24th...went to the doctor everything was good. Had blood taken for the triple screening test. I didn't find the sex of the baby so I will have to wait until my next appt May 15th. Very excited for everyone. I will let yall know what the sex is when i find out, until then talk to you later.

May 16th

I am 19 weeks 3days now. Finally made it.We went to the doctor yesterday. I am having a healthy baby BOY!!!My husband was so excite. Now we are down to the hard part picking names.Hope everyone is doing well. I go back to the doctor June 12th so next update will be in 4 weeks!

Soooo a name we have picked out is Hunter Wayne!! Sound good?

So name change...no more hunter wayne, not feeling it anymore! I am stuck on what to name the baby. Hopefully it will come to me =)

July 9th...

Went to the doctor 6/12 tuesday for a check up and it turned out my cervix was thinning, so my doctor put me in the hospital to monitor me and i had a few contractions not enough to worry. So that thursday he decided we needed to stitch my cervix so it would hopefully stay close the rest of my pregnancy or at least to where we could deliver safely. That was all at 24 weeks. He sent me home Friday to be on strict bed rest!!! For 3 weeks. So i am just now able to get up and moving, still can not do too much. I go back friday the 13th to see if there has been any change. Hopefully not so i can carry my baby full term, and stay off of bed rest! Hope everyone is doing great! I am still stuck with the name game!! What to name him??? I am so worried i will not have a name when he is born! I have to put my brain to work for these last few months. Update every one on Friday! =)

Friday july 20

Went to the doctor and had the triple screening done. The stuff i had to drink tasted like fruit punch with fizz...not bad. Then we listen to his heart beat he is so funny, the nurse had to chase him around my belly. For what ever reason he does not like the doppler. I am getting very excited i can not wait to see my baby, hold him. My husband is very excited as well he keeps asking me when i am lying down can you make him move?? It is funny. Any ways i found out two of my friends are pregnant too. So we all get to be first time mommies together!!! Hope everyone is doing great!

34 weeks

Just a little update since last time. Went to the doctor baby is head down. He is so active. I can not wait to meet him. I wish i could find my camera cord (usb) so i could up load pics. I have been keeping them so i can do the belly book.I will look again for it tonight i know i enjoy looking at yalls pics.When i went to the doctor 8/16 he weighed 4lbs 7oz. Now i guesstimate him @ 5 or so. I am really tired all the time, my belly is so hard and big. i am in my nesting stage, which kind of sucks because when i want to relax i have a billion things going through my head!! My husband calls me Mrs.Clean =) Anyways my next appointment is Sept.5th, then when i go Sept 12th the doc will remove my stitches out of my cervix, we have a chance of having him then. I am ready to meet my baby. Still now name!!!

MY BABY IS HERE!!!!! CALEB WAYNE WAS BORN OCTOBER 3RD AT 6:22PM. HE WEIGHED 7LBS 12OZ 19.5 INCHES. HE IS EVERYTHING TO ME!!

What she senses for you
The day you deliver, outside will be cloudy. Your baby will arrive in the evening.

After a labor lasting approximately 22 hours, your child, a boy, will be born. Your baby will weigh about 8 pounds, 14 ounces, and will be 18 inches long. This child will have dark brown eyes and a lot of hair.

Ok Starting on my second pregnancy. I found out a week ago Monday that i am expecting another bundle of joy! I couldn't be happier. My fear is i have a 8 month old how will i handle the two of them. I am about 6 weeks pregnant i have not been to the doctor yet. When i get an appointment and update i will post updates. :)

As far as sickness none thank god! I hate to throw up, i mean i don't know anyone who likes it but i cry everytime so yeah. I am very glad no m/s. i am hungry all the time and pee like a water hose. :)

6/9

ok went to the doctor friday. had an u/s and the baby is growing perfect. The heartbeat was 168 bpm. it was so exciting to see this little wonderful angel growing in my belly! will update next doctor visit! :) i hope every one is doing well.

8/20/08

Went to the doctor today and all was well. Baby measured 19wks 2dys so i am ahead a little. Found out that i am having a GIRL this time around which is what i wanted. i have already been blessed with a sweet little boy. I go back Tuesday for another u/s to measure the baby's heart and other organs. Then thursday the doctor wants to stitch my cervix again just to be safe.

Hi all just wanted to let you know that the cruise was fabulous..all is well with baby..yes, I broke down on the ship and had an u/s on ship and there he was sucking his thumb and being adorable. the doctor called all the staff in to see my little guy as many have never seen an u/s. One guy started to cry and said that was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen on the ship...I had to agree! I swear I could stare at my baby all day.:) So, now I am in NY and tomorrow I take the train and see my hubby after two weeks and start the joy of house hunting and then house settling. We came back to sad news. My grandmother passed away while I was on the ship..she was a grand ole 102!! But I looked fwd to sharing my baby with her...but as my friend said, now she has a front row seat!:) But my uncle with whom she had been living the last 8 years along with my aunt is in critical condition and I worry my aunt may lose her husband and mother in the same week. He has pneumonia and then had a heart attack in the hospital and is now bleeding internally...so if you could spare a prayer for him, please offer one up. We are waiting to hear funeral arrangements as all eyes are on my uncle right now. But, we, baby and me are fine...just saddened. so thanks for all your thoughts while i was traveling!!I am so glad now I took the cruise but was worried at the length of it...but glad we are here and still going fine! NY is hot and now rainy but great to back in the USA!

Hi, at the moment i smoke too much. I am completelly stressed Cos im moving now and still going through really intence shrink treatment. I smoke (and im being brutally honest here) about 15 a day. I feel sick doing it but its one of the only things that settles my stomach with nausia. I have heard that if you give up before 16 weeks the baby should have the same chances of not having problems as any other non smoking baby. i hope both our babys are fine and i can tell you there are a lot of mothers out there who do a lot worse than smoke. xx


Number3 - Monday, 21 July
Oh my gosh!!! I'm glad she is doing better, but I bet that must have been very stressful on your end. I know I'm not anyone to talk, but make sure you take good care of yourself aswell. You and your family will be in our prayers!!!! Take care hun...

Hi there, I was just checking to see how you were feeling...I hope all is well!

That's really cool about how close you and your brothers are. I wonder if my sister and I would have been closer if we were closer in age. It's not so bad now because we're older but she still acts like my Mother at times.
Some I've heard say it's great having 2 in diapers..others look like they want to pull their hair out..hopefully you'll be one of the ones saying how GREAT it is.
I just can't imagine for me..suppose I'm just an old fart now..LOL Make sure to stay in touch...Tina


juniper willow - Wednesday, 9 July
hi there as you all know by my blog..IT IS A BOY..but I wanted to share the rest of my NT screen tests with you because many have asked. The measuremenst wer immediately read and were great 1.5 and well within "normal" they then took blood for what they call a second testing..and we got ourt blood results back yesterday...these screens just give you a risk factor and cannot rule out DS or other problems completely but...Before the test due to our ages and family history our chances of achild with DS was 1 in 68..kind of scary and then they called yesterday and said our reulst were fabulous and the now risk factor is 1 in 1,312...the same risk as a healthy 20 year old!! So, they said to enjoy my 20 year old body.:) who knew!:) anyway, we weren't gping to do an amnio anyway due to tyhe risk factor and of course, we'd be keeping our little boy regradless but the doctor said he wouldn't even suggest one with these results and that he would just do teh quad 4 and the u/s at 20 weeks so we are! Just wanted to update ya'll...still packing away and tryyingh to get ready..can't believe I am leaving europe in just 5 days!! what a new life we have ahead of us!


chicanamommy - Wednesday, 9 July
 thank u for ur comment!! ur lil boy is gorgeous! he has amazing blue eyes!! so adorable!


Rebekahs-mama - Wednesday, 9 July
Hi! How are you? It's been a while and I was just wondering how you're feeling? And how's little Caleb doing as well? He's such a handsome little sweetheart!


Tastiecake731 - Tuesday, 8 July
Hi there,
What an adorable little one you have! And you are coo coo girlie for having another one so soon, but God love ya..more power to you young ones. It's better to have them when your young. Me..it seems like every 6 years is my thing. Not intentionally..lol. This last one was planned but my other two were not.
It's funny I told my Mom that I wouldn't do what she did to me and my sister..we're 6 years apart and I hated having 2 mothers growing up.
And low and behold my boys are 6 years apart..and now with this one due in Jan..it will be another six (almost 7) yikes years apart. O well... just want happy healthy babies for us all.
Are you going to find out the sex of this one? I'm PRESSED to know...I really wanted a girl..but I miscarried in Feb..and it made me appreciate wanting a healthy baby..not just a GIRL. But I still want to know. They couldn't tell anything on the 12 week sono and now it's a long wait til the second week of August.
Hope you're feeling well..Tina


amynicole - Monday, 7 July
thanks, i'll try that when i get home


Number3 - Tuesday, 1 July
I've been feeling alright I suppose...(:0). has your baby started showing signs of walking or pulling up yet? For the first time, Marqus stood by himelf yesterday.I told my girls that he WILL be walking by the time they go back to school, simply because he weighs 25lbs and I swear he gains a pound everyday! We'll see for sure though how much he's grown on Thursday. Can you believe they are already 9 months!?!?!?!?!


Number3 - Tuesday, 1 July
Hi there, I just thought I'd check to see how you were doing. I went to the doctor last Tuesday when I thought I was turning 9 weeks, and come to find out (after a sono) I was only 7 weeks. My new due date is now my hubby's birthday... (:0) and I'm starting to feel the nausea...YUCK!!!!!


Juniper Willow - Sunday, 29 June
Hi all! Just a quick update! all is well. Just deep in this move..we have our final wlak through with our landlord tomorrow and I swear we have a house full of junk yet an danother all nighter ahead of us...ARGH!!

My last u/s was lats Tuesday Jun 24 and all was wodnerful. Our little baby was steadily punching his/her little are throughout the u/s.

My Goddaughter got off on Thusrday and her parting was anything but sweet... she was quite disturbing and after her yelling f --this and f---- that for about three hours I ended up yelling back at her to just shut up...anyway, needless to say the trip to the airport was solemn. I was crying all day afraid I had hurt my baby with the over emotional scene..but she is gone an dsafely back in Korea and her three years with us is over although she saddled us with a bunch of her stuff to mail but we'll get to it eventually. It was the first time I ever yelled at her in anger so I was a bit upset but I couldn't get her to stop yelling.And I am sorry we parted in such terms..of course, she now apologizes profusely and alreay wants to come back an dlive with us but she is 18 an dready to face the world.:) without us.:)

So, I have been a bit worried but no pain, no bleeding, still exhausted and jsut came from church where I was humbly reminded this is all in God's hands and I just have to trust that all is well.

11 weeks tomorrow! I am so excited! Thursday July 3 I have my NT screen and will get to see my baby again.;)

No computer anymore so I probably won't update until after Thursday! Thanks for checking in. sorry for the long message! Have a Blessed day and thank for all the thoughts and paryers! 11 weeks and feeling GREAT!


snoozles - Saturday, 28 June
Same here! With Amber I did get pretty bad "morning sickness" from about 8 weeks. I only lasted till about 14 weeks but it was more like all day sickness. With this one, I only feel sick every now and then - but like you i'm exhausted. I'm finding myself crashing just after little miss goes to sleep at about 7:00pm. lol.
Caleb is just too cute!!!!!! He has gorgeous eyes too. :) He looks like he's pretty cheeky. Is he crawling now? Amber just started to a week ago - it's so cute to watch her as she seems very proud of herself. lol
