hi there i wouldn`t wash the clothes ready yet i`d want to wash them again just so they are fresh..
i think in the last few weeks say 3 or 4 weeks to go is a good time...unless you can do them nearer the due date it depends on your cicumstances...

Oh I know how you feel! My MIL still drives me crazy from time to time, but I love her! I have tried to come up with alternative ways of letting her know I don't want something with out hurting her feelings. I am in the middle of remodeling our home. And I am replacing the carpeting with pergo, I am not even to the point where I am finished with the girls room, and she wants to buy this net thing that hangs from the ceiling, I just know that they will more then likely break it and it is $80 dollars. I just figured if she is going to spend that kind of money she could help us with the cost of the pergo rather then buy something for a room that is not finished. So today I told her with me being pregnant we are working on one room at a time starting with the living room, because that is the intial room everyone sees... I mean I want new furniture and everything for my living room, new curtains so I am hoping she gets the hint. Good luck with dealing with the sil, maybe she will get the hint that there just have to be boundaries, and there are some things parents like to buy! What I do is give alternatives so feelings are not hurt, and everyone is happy. Like if someone tries to buy my children their holiday dresses I let them know that I already know what I am getting, or have already gotten them but if you would like I can give you the colors and you could buy the shoes, or the ribbons for their hair. That way they still feel appreciated but know they have to ask before they buy something.

Well, I started out @ 120, lost 15, got back to 125 ( makes 5 lbs for the pregnancy) Then when I went to the dr on June 2nd I was SURE I had gained about 10 lbs but NO I had lost 1 instead putting me at a total of 4 lbs for the entire pregnancy. I go back on June 30th so maybe I will have gained some then. Maybe not a lot though, lol. With my son ( in 2005) I gained 25 lbs the whole pregnancy. Now with my daughter (in 2002) I gained 40- if not more..lol. Are you as uncomfortable as I am? I feel like every time he moves he's killing me.

No they dont tell you the length and weight cause i asked for it. Said the dont tell you that information (why i dont no cause it seems like i paid them enough to tell me everything !). lol.

I wanted to respond about your husband working 20 minutes away. Mine is about the same. My hopes are that when I go into labor that I will have time to allow him to get home before I have to head to the hospital. I will have a back up plan just in case though! I have had several friends that went into labor and had time to take a bath and all before going to the hospital. Hopefully I have that much time! Good Luck!

That is pretty much where I am she wouldn't kick for me that night but thankfully she is back on track and kicking like crazy. I have only gotten to play that push and her kickin game with her like one time. All the other times I try that she will just stop kickin. But it is so hot here I wont lie I am so ready to have her, I am quickly getting tired of being prego! I really think its so cool how this website sets you up to meet people with the same due date. I love it! I feel pretty good most of the time but I am very short so space is getting tight and I can tell I get stiff sitting at my desk all day and at night I am not sleeping good at all anymore! But I know it will all be worth it in the end! Anywho nice chatting with ya take care of you and that baby!

kristam - Wednesday, 18 June
LOL... I know it is going to tick her off! She has called me again today only this time to tell me that she found wonderful curtains for the girls room, and this wonderful tea Garden thing that hangs from the ceiling which she is purchasing. I love that she does things for us, and is involved, but she is on a roll right now! I am hoping she will just drop it and not ask again. And hopefully she just talks to my husband about it, and not me...lol. She can bother him... We are naming our little girl India Alana, which I am set on! Thanks for your advice.

That will be nice, make sure to do something afterwards just the 2 of you (ie. go out for ice cream or something before going home). It's important to spend some time together, especially before #2 arrives, 'cause after there won't be much time for anything (so I'm told, lol).

I've decided not to get the 3-d u/s at this time (may still change my mind though)...let me know how it goes. I personally wouldn't bring my daughter (she hates dr's and I think the experience might kind of freak her out) and so I wouldn't be able to enjoy it. My daugther tends to get a bit high strung sometimes. So I suppose it depends on how your daughter is...

bubsnum2 - Tuesday, 17 June
oh cool thank you so much I will start counting now!

.
How is your pregnancy going??

kammysmom - Monday, 16 June
I just did the same thing last night about my baby girl kicking. I can usually expect her to kick me alot when I first lay down at night, but last night was different she didn't do anything. I even shook my belly around and she still wouldn't kick for me. Scared me to death, but I finally fell asleep and this am everything is back to normal or seems to be she is kicking pretty regularly again! I guess she is getting me ready to be a mom, I know I will worry about her constantly!! But I am glad you and your baby girl are good too!

Hi, Thank you so much for the advice, I appreciate it very much. I was so worried I jeodordized my chances to being able to breastfeed this new baby too. I was so worried! Thanks again for everything! Best wishes to you and your family!

That is so cool about the $60 3d u/s. Wish they had that around here! My sisters in MO. have several children already - I think they are done! lol
My pregnancy is pregressing well. I just had to do the 3 hour glucose tolerance test last week and am waiting for the results. Sigh. But other than that, I think it's been pretty routine! And you are right - it is going pretty darn fast!

Thanks so much for sharing with me! biggrin: I sure hope it turns out for you. Im 27wks so I would like to get one done, at this price, its too good to pass up! Please let me know how it turns out. Are you gonna get the CD ROM? I always thought a CD ROM was part of the PC...lol I know what a CD is, but why pay for a second one? Anyhoo, let me know, maybe it is still pics of the baby on the CD ROM that you can upload vs a Video of it on the CD??? It would be nice to see the features of little Lillys face. Best Wishes and I hope it turns out really well for you, Ill be watching for your results. wink:

Hey! How is everything going? I read your polls and I have to say that you being more frightened of labor the second time around is NOT reassuring!!! ; ) Did you decide if you were going to stick with the name Molly or not? I think it's a lovely name and you should go with it. We don't know the sex of our baby yet but I have always wanted to call my daughter Olivia, ever since I was a kid. And my hubby likes it too! And now of course it's one of the most common names around. So I don't know whether I would still use it. Maybe I should take my own advise and name my child what I l like! Anyhoooo I hope everything is going smoothly for you!

Just checking in-how is everything? All I know is that Arkansas is too hot-and will only get hotter!

kar - Thursday, 12 June
I'm hanging in there....I've been extremely busy at work (so no time to check in here, lol) and on the weekends we've been renovating our basement/working on cleaning up the garden/and planning Emma's 3rd b-day party (it's on July 5th). My only complaint now is lower backache. If I sit for more than 15 minutes at a time, getting up after and walking is very painful. I guess the little guy must be lieing on a nerve or something! I even went for a massage yesterday (was very relaxing), but unfortunately when it comes to lower back they can't do much (afraid of inducing labour) I feel like I've been complaing so much this time around.
So how about you? You must be done with school by now...are you officially off for the summer? It's great that you're getting all the baby stuff together...I feel so guilty 'cause I haven't thought much about it. The only thing I have bought is a crib (and only 'cause it was on sale), I'll be using a lot of Emmas stuff most of it's neutral (ie. bedding and outfits 0-3 mths). BUt they're all still packed away!
Have you had a 4-d u/s?? How's your belly?? I'm HUGE, at last appt. I was measuring 2 wks ahead :(

Hey! Just read your poll - I'm terrified of giving birth again too! (Not pregnant again yet tho)
I'm assured you tear less, if at all, with ur 2nd baby but i wont believe it, lol.
I was induced too, with just under 6hrs of easy labour - do you think that'll mean we'll have quicker labours next time even tho we were induced? Figured since you're preggo again, you might know! Been trying to ask everyone and no one has an answer! Gr. x

Hi,
i know what you mean about carrying high, ive caried all 3 of mine high and its a nightmare,
makes breathing so much more difficult - and bending too!!
I dont eat much either cos i get full too quick - baby takes up so much room LOL.
ive not been measured yet, im expecting that to start next week as im 28 wks then and have my next midwife apt.

No we havent started babys room yet either!
Having said that, we are in the midst of decorating our conservatory, a friend was helping my hubby but he has let us down so we're a bit in the lurch! its made me cross really cos im desperate to get it all done.

Our daughter is still in our room and im SO DESPERATE to get her into her own room, but thats a bit of a dilemma. You see this baby they have said is a boy, so he will need to have the litte room as the nursery and then the 2 girls will have to share in the big room.
My dilemma at the moment is that i want daughter 2 in her own room before the baby comes (should have been long before now but for one reason or another it hasnt happened,) so our thoughts now are to just do up the small room a bit and put her in there until the time comes that i want to move the baby in there, then she would join her sister. or should we just go for it and move her in with her sister now and do the little room as a nursery now, thing is, what if they are wrong with the sex of the baby, if they are, then it would be easier to put my youngest in with the baby in the bigger room and put the eldest in the little room on her own (she's 7 years older than my youngest you see so she is coming up to the age where she needs her own space even more)

Oh i dont know, its really stressing me to be honest, I just wish we had the money to be able to move to a 4 bed house - that would solve all these problems hey

!

Hows your foot now? mine still a bit sore but not bad by any means, had bad hip pain last week for a ferw days but thankfully that seems better now too, just need to sort out the backache now hehehe,

Anyway, hope you get sorted soon, im sure i'll still be in a mudle the day before the babys due lol.
Take care mate xxx
