***CONGRATS AMY***!!!!! Wow! I am so excited for you and the family! *******BABY GIRL DUST****** to you!!!!!! ((Hugs and huge smiles))

thanks..i am scared and nervous!

yay!!!! Guess what.... baby grace was born jan 31st, she is just pperfect and healthy!!!! my section went fine....long 3 hours to dig thru the adhesions and i was scared but we have all survived and made it home. i had my tubes done and am a little saad but know it was the wise choice. we have 4 healthy beautiful kids and have been so blessed! thats great news Amy!! Not too worry...i made it!!

congrats!!!!!!!!!i am so happy for you :) and so glad everything went well! i feelt he same although i will be sad i think i need my tubes tied too

Thanks Amy. It has been a little tough knowing the tubes are done. A little this first week, I would think "this is the last time..this and that". Ya know. But realistically, I am turnming 39 next month, I would least needa year for recovery of uterus before TTC again, so then I'm 40. It took 15 cycles for Grace, then 37 weeks of pregnancy. I'd be almost 41 at the earliest. Then my quad screen was yucky this time around, and who knows for next time. I was nervous going in for my section having 3 other kids at home etc, etc. you know. But it all turned out very good so I'm going to run with that. I was saying to my dh, its not so much that i wish i didn't have the tubal, cuz I know logically it would be the "unwise" choice for me to keep on haing sections, but I'm sad because it seems like its the end of the baby making, ttc, pregnancy, season of my life. his response was "you can't keep having babies forever, fertility runs out regardless and its not like you're 20 and have had it done, you are almost 40". which is true, seasons change and now I have to be excited to watch these guys all grow up and see whats in store next!! Which is going to be so much much fun as well! oxxoxo

How is everything going?

Congrats Lovemy3-->Four!!! So glad your baby is here and healthy! It is rough having a long section and then chasing 3 other kids plus a newborn. We get through it and carry on don't we? Amy how's the pregnancy going? Lovemy, I felt all the same things about "this is the last time I will be up with a tiny newborn..." etc. I was quite melancholy for awhile but thought it was because my last was a preemie and was sooooo sick in the NICU. I guess we just come to grips with it and then relish the family life. God Bless, and sorry I don't write much. The new nursing career keeps me so busy and working nights makes days off so busy...**sigh**...talk soon.

thanks djh, did you get your tubes tied or just know that it was the last? i am feeling really still sad about it, i hope i perk up soon and deal with it. i think i regret it, but i know i can't change it now. i think a tubal reversal would be too difficult given the obvious adghesions of 4 sections, plus my dr would think i'm crazy. i guess i just wish i had of left the option open. i feel in "mourning" of my fertility i guess. anyhow, i do however have 4 healthy perfect children and thats alot to be thankful for. i don't know what my problem is.

hey there, FYI, I finally got around to changing my login name to blessedwith4. Hope you arefeeling well Amy, ttyl.

How are you guys doing? How are you feeling Amy?

i am good thanks! hey i really need your emails! seems like we go for to long without talking on here...i lost yours djh...my msn went too long inactive...i am 13 weeks and feeling good!

Hi Girls! How are you? Amy-chaoszz(at)msn(dot)com...I am worn out by my floor! We are taking ICU overflow, AND we always have 5 or more patients even though ICU pts. are supposed to be 1:1 or 1:2!!!! I literally run the entire 12.5 hours. Fantastic experience though, I will be able to work any unit after what I've done so far. Lovemy, how's the baby? The other kids? Amy, how are those boys? I can't wait to find out what you are having this time ****healthy baby girl dust****. Well ladies, be well, happy, and healthy, I am off to sleep so I can go back to work tonight.

Amy and Lovemyfour, how are you gals? Amy, are you finally getting your girl?????? Being an RN is so rockin cool. I already got a 2,000 a year raise from graduating top of my cla__s! I'm making about 60,000 grand a year...to start.....!!! Write soon ladies and we'll share kid stories...Deb

so glad your enjoying your job deb! awesome! no we are having another boy.. ;) funny huh..

Hey ladies! Wow another boy! djh, glad you are loving your job, thats great. Amy, how ais your pregnancy going? What are your plans for your section? Do you think you'll do your tubes? I am feeling better about it, a little I think. I still wish I didn't do them although I don 't think I'd do a 5th section. i am enjoying baby Gracie. She's so sweet. 5 months old on Monday. hard to believe. I still struggle sometimes knowing "this is it" though. Its really weird. But we're good none the less. Take care and enjoy your pregnancy! savour the moments!

Hey gals! Amy, another boy???? Oh my, get really, really good at sports! I have 3 and it was a good thing I was an athlete my whole life and had plenty of brothers, plus my Dad was a pro-athlete so I was ready for boy babies!!! My poor only daughter was the one who seemed to be out of the loop, she hated football LOL. Lovemy, I was so ambivalent about my tubes being tied, but it was truly for the best, kids get monstrously expensive when they get a bit older as I am sure you know...after the "this is it" feelings I felt really good about the decision. Talk later!
