Moms to Be Part 3

[Linzybrooke]

Maggie, here is the link to the album. We haven't recieved it yet, but love the look of it. http://www.baby-memory-books.com/Babyprints_Baby_Book_Blue_Dots_p/ph-35101.htm

BabyTigger, I have an aromatherapy oil for headaches that I find works pretty well. Mine is from Bath & Body Works, but I know they sell them at Origins as well. It is basically some essential oils like peppermint that you rub on your temples. Maybe that would work?

YellowFish, hopefully your insurance is well on its way to be being straightened out and you guys can relax in the next couple of days! I feel so bad for you! Ours is about to switch to a new company and I am nervous that we will experience something similar. Not looking forward to it!

Adi, good luck with the house hunting this weekend!

I am so exhausted I can't see straight. Trying to get back into the swing of things at work is stressing me out, plus I am not sleeping at all. I feel like I am starting over as a brand new teacher simply because I cannot wrap my brain around everything I need to get done in the next couple of days. I am going to bed early tonight!

very cute Linzy- thanks for the link!

Had my 32 week appointment yesterday. Isabel had her head down still - yeay - and she will hopefully stay that way Her heart rate was at 144 and the poking and prodding to measure my uterus got her SUPER active!! I'm measuring at 34 weeks - a little big, but they say you can be +/- 2 and that is normal. Today we did the 3D/4D ultrasound, she was sooo sleepy, but still looking adorable (at least to us). . .
My daughter ALWAYS has her hands touching or hiding her face, and has had her legs crossed at EVERY ultrasound - even back at 12 weeks! So it was no surprise that both were true this time!

This is how the u/s started, and how she wanted to be most of the time (she's either shy or was very comfortably sleeping ):

Her crossed little (actually, BIG) legs/feet:

Our Sleeping Beauty:

My new favorite, love her open mouth here, lol:

LOVE how clear you can see her little face here:

We're leaving tomorrow for WDW and the DCL Eastern and won't be back till September 6th. Hopefully we'll have more new additions by then as I'm sure the next mommies -to-be on the list are super eager to meet their little ones!

THANKS!!! I love those pictures too. I won't bank on her being a good sleeper - but that would be great

Have fun on your trip!! I am sooo jealous!! Can't wait to hear about it!

PS For those following my home search - we saw two houses we liked yesterday, now waiting on Realtor to see if they are still available to make offers on. I am scared to start picturing myself in the homes, because we have been let down so many times. Hopefully one of these is THE one!

 

[justhat]

Glad to hear the house hunt went pretty well! I hope one of the houses work out well. I know what you mean about picturing yourself in the house and being let down, but I really hope you get one of them! Or find a better one if they don't work out!

And thanks, about the trip. We planned this 15 months ago with a friend I met on this thread 3.5 years ago when I was pregnant with my son. So weird cause I never thought I'd be so close with people on a message board! Anyway, it's been a long-awaited trip and the kids are all looking forward to it and seeing each other again as well. Hopefully we are free of storms next week and it should be a good trip.

And I should get back to packing. I'm printing out the cruise magnets I made which is taking ages on the max dpi I set it to for the best resolution. Figured if I'm on the computer I might as well be on here!

 

[Maggimus]

Congrats Skylarr!! Cant wait to see photos!

WOW-- this means Im next... unless Yellowfish beats me to it! Where has the time gone??

 

[IHeartTink04]

Congrats Skylarr! Looking forward to pictures and birth story!


I am now 5th on the list!

Congrats Skylarr!! Cant wait to see photos!

Nope! I'm still not ready. I'm still waiting for that check to clear from DH's business so we officially have word that we have insurance back. Per my last appointment, I'm measuring spot on and haven't dropped yet (I still have feet in my ribs). Plus I have two more weeks before internals. I think this kid likes it right were it is right now...

Just got home from church, breakfast and Sams Club. After breakfast we had to head back to church - DH left something there - and lo and behold some of the church ladies had a surprise shower for us. Came home with some good stuff and I think enough gift cards for my breast pump.

I'm dying for chicken tonight so I have some breasts out of the freezer. Anyone have any good quick recipes? (If it's before 7pm EST that is, or post for the next time we have chicken!)

ETA: Not sure if I mentioned it prior, but since I've been a posting fool on here lately, my name is Chanon - sounds just like Shannon just different spelling.

 

[Disney Ron]

I was just popping in to see if anyone near the top of the list was making progress..... CONGRATS MELISSA!!!!!!

May you and DH share much happiness with your little baby boy!

Congratulations Skylarr!!

Quick question for those of you beyond 20 weeks....did you need a full bladder for your 20 week ultrasound?
Mine is coming up on Thursday and it dawned on me that nobody gave me any instructions about drinking water this time.
Thanks in advance!
