Hello all.

I'm so glad to join this site after getting pregnant so soon after a loss. I lost my son Christian at 30 weeks in June due to a skeletal disorder. It was a devistating, life changing event that I hope none of you have to go through. But I do have precious photos and memories of his sweet face. I am so looking forward to this new adventure. I just hope it ends with a healthy, beautiful baby.

Well, we had a great appointment yesterday. We saw the heartbeat (150bpm) and the doc said everything was going great. The hubby and I are going out with some friends tonight and they will wonder why I am not having a glass, so I will probably tell them tonight. I hate that they will know before my family, but oh well...We're so excited!! Nausea is getting worse though, looking forward to 13 weeks!

1/14-

I can `t wait for my next appt next week on 1/22. Due to me going to a new doctor they will have to do all the testing again, which I don `t mind b/c I get another u/s!!! I get to see my baby. They will also probably schedule me for more u/s b/c of my past problem. I hope everything is okay and I also hope I can find out the sex sooner than 18-20 weeks. I have a feeling it is a girl but we would really love a little boy again. But as the cliche goes, `As long as it `s healthy.... `Oh, also I have been hearing the heartbeat often through my Doppler that I bought, about 174 bpm. I love that sound!!!

Just got home from the docs office. Had a great appointment. She said I was measuring 13 weeks but didn `t change my due date for some reason. I love my Doctor though she is great! She took time to make me feel comfortable and answered questions and of course the best part was seeing our sweet little baby bouncing around. He/She was waving her arms and jumping around! So cute! I asked her about listening to the heartbeat everyday and was that a problem. She told me to bring in my unit at the next appointment and she would look at it. We decided not to due the NT scan though. It wouldn `t change anything anyways. I will be high risk though so I will get more u/s than usual. Maybe one on Friday for limb measurements. I hope so!!I `ll update then.

I `m so excited and shocked I can barely contain myself! We just came back from the specialist where we had measurements done so they could track the growth of the baby and they were able to tell IT `S A BOY!!!!!!!!!!! I can `t believe it because I was feeling GIRL so overwhelmingly! We are so happy though. My husband it beside himself, he is ecstatic! The best news though is so far everything looks good with him measurement wise and they went ahead and did the NT scan b/c babies with my previous sons disorder usually test positive, but this baby is negative. Thank God for this great news. The doctor said they won `t know anything definatively until 24 weeks but I am feeling very good about everything. Oh, also see my u/s pics. You can see the penis!!!

I am really starting to feel like this is really going to happen this time. I bought a pregnancy record book and a frame for one of his u/s pics today. I was also looking at colors and starting to think about how I am going to decorate. I can `t wait to start decorating. I `m going to still wait a few weeks before I start buying anything though. I think I felt him rolling around in my tummy this afternoon. It was a strange and exhilerating feeling. I love him so much!!!

We are celebrating! We just found out that we are having a healthy baby! No sign of dyslasia at all, in fact he is measuring a little big. He was so active yesterday. I drank coffee before the u/s and he was literally bouncing off the walls! It was so fun to see! Now I can really start planning and looking towards the future. My mom went shopping yesterday. She is so excited. The wheels are in motion for my shower now. We are so blessed!!!!!!!

I can `t wait to meet-

Well, I had been having contractions more than I thought that I should all last week and on Wed of last week I decided I would have some down time and lay around for a couple of days to see if they would subside. They seem to have on Wed and Thurs, but on Friday night I thought they were too strong and too close together so I called the doc and she sent me to the hospital at 1am on Friday night. They gave me Brethene and monitored my contractions and the baby all night and then gave me some Betamethasone to mature the baby's lungs. By morning they were under control so I was released with Brethene tablets and bedrest orders. So today is Friday and it has almost been a week. Hopefully I will only have to do this for a couple of months. Sunday through Thursday my hubby was out of town so my mom and dad took turns babysitting me. It was real nice getting to spend some one on one time with them both. They helped me fight the boredom too. Now I am left with my laptop, magazines, books and tv. I'm thinking of taking up knitting so I can be doing something constructive. We will see. The most important thing is that my baby boy stays in there until he is invited to come out. He's just too excited to start his life!!!

Not quite finished yet, the main stuff is done though. Husband refuses to help. (long story) They told me about a week ago that Shane is measuring about 6 and a half! My first weighed 8'10" so he will probably be about Nathan's size.

Other than these dang BH contractions driving me insane im still here. I go to the Dr in a week so hopefully he will stay in a while longer. He has dropped really low so it feels like he may fall out! (hopefully not though!) How are you doing?

Don't sweat the estimated weight of the baby - that's all it is... an estimate. Not only that but an 8.5 lb baby isn't huge - still considered perfectly average. YOU CAN DO IT!! Don't talk or scare yourself out of the natural birth you've been planning.... I'm scared too.

Thank you! Congrats on your pregnancy

lebedkat - Wednesday, 2 July
I understand how worried you are about the baby's wieght.... but it's all very relative as the doctors are mistaken about the woight of the baby too often!!!! I would hope for the best...:))) And another thing, women gave birth to big babies (9lbs, 10lbs. and even more) naturally and without the tears!!!!! (the only thing is that they did it with midwives, not in the hospitals). Are you having a hospital birth?

Thank you :-) It touched my heart too

Doing well...considering. Normal aches and pains so I can't complain too much, :D I'm so ready for Rhys to be here!! We had an u/s 2 weeks ago and he weighed 4 1/2 lbs which is 67%. So it looks like he'll be a healthy size but not too big! Turns out we'll have another u/s at 36 wks b/c he has extra fluid in one of his kidneys that they need to monitor. I am definitely wanting to go natural. I've done a lot of reading about different methods and I think I'm going to be making up my own approach, a little hypno, a little Bradley. I have a few things I'm bringing with me to the hospital to help me (a pic of where we honeymooned in the Swiss Alps which is the most relaxing place I've ever been to and my NYC marathon metal b/c I had a very tough race and after finishing that I believed that I can get through any physical pain ). I'm also making my hubby read a lot of inspiring natural birth stories where the partner was crucial to calming the mother. So hopefully we'll be prepared and Rhys will be cooperative! We'll see soon enough!

Beautiful nursery. Is that the DaVinci Kalani crib? I love it.

I dont know but I am officially freaking out. Isnt 34 weeks way too early? ( if he were to be born)Maybe the Dr. will let me into a little light as in to what is going on...

brandy - Wednesday, 25 June
Well, I lost mine with Nathan and still went a few weeks more with him (actually over due), but what freaks me out is that I have read that with second pregnancies and so forth that things tend to happen a little faster. I go to the Dr. tomorrow (first time in 5 weeks!), but he has already told me that he still will not check me! ARGH! This is all totally freaking me out! I feel like it is still too early for this to be going on...

blessed-in-atl - Sunday, 22 June
I had my little boy on Monday, he was 4 weeks early. his cord was wrapped around his neck twice but he is perfect and we went home together on Wednesday
