  • Yuuum! Bump for later :tongue:
  • I forgot to post the picture we will be using for her birth announcements! What a little angel :heart: Also, can anyone tell me the forum that us new mommies go to to keep in touch with everyone once we have our babies? Thanks! Hope everyone has a great weekend!
  • Good morning ladies! Today my Cali is one week old! I am sooo in love! The c-section went better than expected. I entered the operating room at 8am. The spinal was pretty much painless! The nurse compared getting the local shot to getting a shot in your mouth at the dentist. It felt exactly like that, and that was it! A…
  • Cali Madison Jones was born Friday, September 2nd at 8:27am! 8lbs 5oz, 20" long! She is amazing! :heart: All is well so far..birth story to come in a day or two!
  • Rachel, I'm sorry you had such a hard time..but what a beautiful baby! Enjoy every minute with her, and feel better soon! AFM: I am doing some last minute packing of my bags..and then I am off to the hospital tomorrow at 6am! C-section is scheduled for 8:30! I am beyond ecstatic! I am bringing my laptop with me so I can…
  • Ronya the mural is beautiful! Be sure to pass it on to your husband!
  • Doctor appointment today went well. My blood pressure was still elevated, but lower than it has been which is great! Its the first appointment in 3 weeks that I haven't gotten sent to the hospital! :bigsmile: Even though I'm having a planned c-section, I had the doctor check me today for any progress. She said the baby…
  • Rachel, I never went into labor with my first and it looks like I won't be with this one either..and I feel totally bummed about it too. I really wanted that whole surprise element of my water breaking. or contractions starting, and to see if my body was going to do what it was supposed to do. Nevertheless, the end result…
  • I am pretty much the same as Rachel. I started at 165 which is considered obese for my height (5'0) and weight has never been mentioned. I am almost 38 weeks, and have gained 25 so far. Strange how some doctors are very concerned with weight and some like mine do not even bring it up once! It doesn't bother me though…
  • Thanks for the concern everyone! Test results show no pre-eclampsia so far! Seems my body just isn't tolerating the last month of pregnancy very well..which I'm assuming has to be related to my being so overweight before pregnancy + the 25 lbs I have added to that! I'm really looking forward to getting healthy again ASAP…
  • Hi everyone, I've been in and out of the hospital quite a bit in the past few weeks. Everytime I have been to my doctors appointments they keep sending me directly to the hospital! Last week was scary-my heart rate was very high and I was having trouble breathing, so I had to get lots of blood tests, an iv, a chest xray…
  • Sending labor wishes your way Rachel!!
  • Oh no, another 6th grade mommy! :tongue: You are definitely not alone in the drama or attitude department! I'm sure we'll have quite a few stories to swap pretty soon...yikes! I'm so not ready! Oh well, ready or not..let the worrying and sleeplessness begin! :laugh: Good luck to us all!
  • Man, I am in the same exact boat! We go for middle school orientation next week, she's starting August 22nd and then baby sis is coming on 9-2! Aaahh! We should definitely be buddies on here, I'm sure we can both use the support dealing with 6th graders and newborns! Lol :tongue:

  • Last box!!!!!! :love: :love:
  • Great ideas! I like the camera/scrapbook idea..I think she would enjoy that! Also, the "mommy coupon" is too cute, definitely going to make one! Thanks!
  • Good morning! I'm trying to think of a present for my daughter to give to her the day the baby is born. I already got her a big sister t-shirt and a charm necklace..but i'd like to get something just for her to make her feel special on that day..however, my brain just won't work! I'm not sure if I mentioned this before,…
  • Hi ladies, I found my way back..just got caught up with everyone's posts! Brittony-congrats on Emma, she is perfect! Stephanie- twins! So amazing! Julie- sounds like you are almost there, how exciting! Well, I haven't been on here in a month or two..broken phone being replaced with broken phone hasn't helped since that's…
  • Bump for later :-) Hope everyone has a wonderful mother's day tomorow!
  • @theaimster Don't worry..I was the same way! Except I was overweight this time before pregnancy. Now, I'm so scared about how I'm going to lose all the weight I had put on before, plus whatever baby weight I gain! My DH and I weren't preventing pregnancy, but we weren't really trying, mostly because I kept saying I wanted…
  • Thanks everyone for the warm welcome! I have a question for all you moms/pregnant ladies out there: Does anyone have any tips to help ease hip/ lower back pain? I have slight scoliosis, so I had lots of pain on and off before even getting pregnant (it got worse as I gained weight over the past 2 years). Now that I am…
  • Looks like I figured it out..thanks anyway! :wink:
  • Hmm..looks like I need help already! Anyone know why my pregnancy ticker isn't working?
  • Hi everyone! My name is Lindsey and I am a new member..I just signed up on Monday! I am recently married (2-20-10) and I have a daughter, Kendall Michelle who will be 11 in July! I am currently 18 weeks pregnant and really want to watch my weight-gain as I was overweight before pregnancy this time. I'm so happy to find…
