You need a Target! We will airlift a Target store to your location.

I'm still waiting

I have slept ALL day! Yeesh. And yes. I slept all night too. No idea what is going on.

Really, no idea at all???

I'm doing fine, not much new and exciting going on. I've been really busy at work, trying to get everything done before I leave, so I haven't been on a lot during the day.

Sorry Alison - but your avatar thing is totally creeping me out. Not the avatar in general - but I am having big time trouble figuring out who you are

We dont have state here. just federal.


okay. This is way to much info for you all.. But guess what? Im gonna tell you anyhow. I feel like my crotch is going to split open, and these babies are going to FALL OUT. But only when I stand up. SO I dont do that much. I have been feeling really good lately... But I suspect its been because I never get off my butt anymore. I have so much pressure in my girly bits, and everytime I stand up.. I have to pee. Even if I just peed 5 minutes ago. AND.. We just got back from Popeyes Chicken. I didnt fit in the booth. not even CLOSE. I tried, and started having tummy cramps from being all smushed in. So embarrassing.

I'm not feeling well today. I just feel blah. With my medical problems some days I just feel "off" ya know? I think i'll be resting a lot today.

Hi Gina. Sorry you are not feeling well. I haven't been on much lately - but I do definitely try to pop on once in awhile to keep up. So welcome to the group, but don't be too offended if I don't really like you until after the Super Bowl (and since you are new here I should probably mention that I am totally kidding)

 

[Jennasmomma]

lol about the superbowl. We are just trying to start the other hand is all

Hi ladies. Just thought I would swing by with a hello.

I have to leave for dance class in about 15 minutes, I have an eye infection and I'm wearing my contacts and going to dance anyway lol. Hopefully I survive!

Hey Cristina!!! Sorry - that really isn't funny, but the way you said it cracked me up!!!

Well, I'm off! Wish me luck!

 

[Alex2kMommy]

I am so sorry, guys! I logged in last night intending to chat, but as soon as I got warm under my blankie I fell asleep! I woke just before 11:00 PM and realized I needed to just get to bed.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Christina, just a quick message. When I had pinkeye (and I've had both kinds) and wore contact lenses, I had to toss the lenses and stop wearing them until the infection cleared. Otherwise you're just reintroducing the infection from your lenses back into your eye...

Not sure if you have the soft lenses like I did, or hard lenses that you can use the heat and/or chemical disinfection on, but you may want to check with your doc about that before you use them again.

Hope your eye heals up soon, I remember how miserable that is!

 

[Jennasmomma]

I found a bag of old pictures. I found pictures of my DD when she was around 5. She's now 13. I'm scanning them into the computer so I have a backup. I'm going to scrapbook the ones I found.

I also have 148 pictures my dad picked up for me yesterday that I need to organize and start to pre plan pages for.

At least I'll be busy while I dont feel good today.

 

[MotoXPrincess99]

Are you guys invading disneyland during march/april with that Girls/ladies only trip?

oh, and MOOO.

I'll be there March 6-8th. Not sure if any other Hyenas will be there? Maybe I'll get to meet you this time areound.

Oh pooo. Even if I clean them really good? It's only a minor infection, no pussing! You're probably right though I should throw them away and grab some new ones.

BIG EXCITING NEWS!!!


Okay. So nothing earth shattering, but I had a GREAT appointment today!!! First off.. Is it any wonder I feel like crap?? My babies weigh 3 and a half pounds EACH!! That is fantastic!! I already have 7 pounds of baby in my belly. The doctor is LOVING those weights. She said that by 36 weeks they will EASILY be 6-7 pounds each! I gained NO weight over the past 3 weeks, and the doc was a little concerned, until she measured me. I went from measuring 33 weeks at my last appt. to 39 at this one!! At this rate, Im going to measure 60 weeks pregnant when the babies come!

Baby A is still head down, and thankfully, that is the baby with the bigger head! She said that is awesome... they prefer the big headed babies to pave the way. Baby B is breech again. What can I say.. she is a girl, and just cant seem to make up her mind. So we are on track for a vag. delivery!! Who knew something like that would have me SO excited!!

Speaking of delivery. This was probably the highlight of my appt. We discussed delivery, and how it would go.. As long as everyone is healthy, and such.. WELL. I DONT have to deliver in the operating room, UNLESS they suspect something will go wrong with baby B. AND I dont have to have an epidural, but they DO suggest it, because a breech extraction can be very.. uncomfortable. Sounds like it! Frelan said that sounds like Swat terminology.. Breech extraction. Im sure that I will get the epi after a bit, But its nice to know they arent going to push it on me!

I am WICKED excited that there is a chance Alex might get to be there when the babies are born! He SO wants that!

 

[Alex2kMommy]

staley-girl, sounds like you are all doing great!

does alex know...uhhhhh, what to expect? has he seen puppies or kittens born? or watched one of those childbirth videos? i was watching this show last week (i forget the name of it, but the main character is sam, a living breathing incarnation of murphy's law, his wife is pregnant), and sam was all gung-ho to be in the delivery room with his wife until he watched a litter of pups birthed.

 

[Jennasmomma]

Staley no wonder you are so uncomfortable. Thats great that the babies weigh so much already. You are a good oven!

It was such a kick butt appointment!! Alex has seen some childbirth videos with me.. So he does know what to expect. If he gets freaked out or anything, we will have my mom there to take him out of the room.

We are starting to work on baby plans and such.. It seems so unreal. We are going to talk to the school tomorrow to work out with his teacher if dh calls, that she needs to have Alex ready for him to run and grab him..

I know!! Its so exciting!!

 

[Alex2kMommy]

sweet!

 

[staley7580]

sweet!

Indeed!!!

BABIES!! Im going to have BABIES!!!! I cant believe it! NOW... Im getting excited.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

did she say anything about an expected timeframe? is she thinking you can go to 36 weeks or later? that would be awesome! i think... those babies will be huge!

We are shooting for 36 weeks. She said if I go into labor at 34 weeks, she wont stop it... but would prefer I wait until 36 weeks. But I doubt she will want me to stay pregnant any longer then that. I can just imagine being 38 weeks, with a couple of 8 and a half pounders.
