Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey Shelley, just thought I'd say hi and bump up. I keep forgetting to check in on the group on fb so I will need to go do that today. I hope everyone is doing well...everything is good here just busy as hell.

Hello Lovely Ladies! Sorry for the prolonged absence, but having a rambunctious LO has left me with little time! We had problems with BF, had to try many different formulas, had troubles with constipation, and then the feeding every 2 hrs...but now things have slightly calmed down. My little guy is eating every 4 hrs, sleeps in his own crib in his own room at night from 8:30 to 4 and is all smiles 99% of the time! He is a chunker at 15 1/2 lbs at 14 1/2 weeks. He is wearing 6/9 month clothes and is growing more every day. I started back to work last Monday, boo, but have a very good sitter 5 minutes from my house. Kellen is sitting up nicely and can hold his head up pretty steady. He loves to chew his hands and is SO close to big belly laughs. He squeals in pleasure and gives me huge gummy grins. I am SO in love with him. I think he may be in a growth spurt as his eating schedule has been off over the weekend, he reverted to getting up a couple times at night. But I am sure it will smooth out again. We tried cereal with him and though he will eat it, it doesn't really make him sleep any longer (we did a test..LOL). I will check in more to see how everyone is doing. TTFN Cyndi

Hi girlies! How are you? Sorry that I haven't been in, in a while, either! I've a had a busy last couple of months with getting back to work and getting healthier. Hope you are all doing well and are very happy.[3

Hey all--- it has been FOREVER since i have been on here!!! I hope that everyone is doing well! Congrats to all of the new babies and the new pregnancies. I can't wait to see more! Is anyone out there thinking of trying again anytime soon? Since some of the babies have already hit the 1 yr mark or are close to it, it may be around that time for some of you again? any maybes? Anyways, my little family is doing great! School is almost over (June 11th here) so that means I am off of work for the summer and I will be finished with my masters on June 30th yeah! All I have to do is finish writing my research report and I ma done ! (and that is a little over half written!) Hence my EXTREME business these last 8 months. I had to double up on cla__ses due to being on bedrest. That was not fun with working and 2 kids in the house. Well.....my little Anna is now 10 months! She is weighing in at 18lbs. Doctor said that she is a peanut for her age. She is just a wonderful baby though. She is doing great trying a whole bunch of new table foods and I think by the time she is 1, I will ahve her off of the jars! Mikie, my ds and anna just adore one another. I didn't think they would get along so well. I know that won;t be the case forever, but it is nice right now. Anna got her first tooth a few days ago...I know a late bloomer. She is starting to get mobile and scoots all around the living room although I have a feeling she will walk before she crawls. She pulls herself up on stuff and lets go but she refuses to get on her hands and knees yet! Anyways...hopefully I can start being on ere a little more over the summer. I know that Allie and Kristin are going to be getting close to meeting their little ones! I would love to hear all about it. I see that a lot of you are on facebook. I just might have to look into it once I am done with school and have some time. I want to keep in touch with all of you even though I had to take such a prolonged absence. I don't think I would have made it through. You girls are too adicting!!! Well, i think my dh and I have figured it out that we are going to try for our third and final addition late this year or early next year. not all that far off, so if any of you are going to be in the same boat, I'd love to hang out on the ride again. It was so much fun having others to talk to along the way.

SARA! Holy C___p!! How are you?? Wow, you have been busy. So glad that both schools are almost done for you! I am sure you are thrilled. Sounds like everyone is doing well. I am glad the kids are getting along so well. I can't believe Anna is 10 months! Hayden is right behind her at 9.5 months. He is crawling, pulling up and cruising. He is on total table food (it is so hard!), and has 7 teeth. I am still nursing him but he also gets formula. He is 18 lbs and 27.5 inches as of his 9 month appt. I am so glad to hear from you. I hope you can sign up on facebook, there are a lot of us on there. Thanks for checking in!! Frances

Frances- so glad to hear from you too! Sounds like your little man is doing well. They grow so fast! Anna is a bit behind in some of the movement areas, but I think that is just her personality! She really doesn't have much of a desire to get around yet...which is FINE with me! My son was walking at 10 months, younger than my daughter is now, and it was a lot of work. That is great for you that you are still b___stfeeding. I was too busy and stopped at 3 months. I am so excited for this summer. I won't be on bedrest! yeah---and I can enjoy everything. Well take care. I probably won't explore facebook unitl my research project is finished because I know I will be distracted, but after that, I'll come and see how to look everyone up!Since you talk to everyone, how is Allie doing??? I was so excited to hear that it finally worked for her. She deserves it so much! Do you know when she is due? And what a surprise that Krisitn is pregnant again! very cool. I see our thread has slowed down to a turtle crawl, but that's ok...I'm sure everyone is busy.

Hey Sara, be glad that she is in no hurry b/c I am constantly on the run. He wears me out for sure! Allie is due in about 5 weeks. She does deserve it! She did not tell anyone till she was like 13 weeks! Sneaky!! She just wanted to be sure. I know! Kristin with another one. It is a boy for her. Allie didn't find out! I posted on our FB page that you had checked in and everyone was doing well etc. This thread IS so slow. I hate it but that is the way it goes. We are fairly active on FB. I hope you can get over there soon. It is amazing how many people are on there from your past!! All the way back from elementary school for me. That was a loooong time ago! Glad to be back in touch with you!

Hey Sara!!! I do come here and check in to see the other threads here but if this bumps up I read it--like Frances I do FB most of the time. I still forget to check in on the CS there as I'm not in the habit yet. Sounds like Anna and Ava are a lot alike! I'm so glad to hear from you and wonder about you often. Ava is going to be 11 months June 8....she just started crawling last week--well it's more of an army crawl, but she gets around FAST! I also thought she would go straight to walking b/c she's been pulling up for a while now and ALWAYS wants to walk holding our hands :) She got her bottom 2 teeth in March and her top 2 are coming in now (both have broke gums). She eats all table food now too. I was scared to give it to her but just took the plunge one day and then trashed all the baby food I had made. She doesn't eat what we eat though...I do veggies, crackers, whole grain pasta, etc. She still b___stfeeds and I just started weaning to a formula/bm combo this week. I give her a bottle breakfast, lunch and dinner and then nurse in morning and before bed. She's doing ok and we're getting rid of the one nighttime waking. She cried for 30 mins 2 nights ago but last night not even for 1 min so we'll see how tonight goes. whew! So you are trying for another soon? We both want one more but I'm not ready for the stress of pregnancy again so soon with the shots, etc. I can't wait too long though as I'm 33 already. I'm thinking when Ava turns 2 if we are ok financially. Well, I'll check back in soon...back to work!

Hey Girlies!!! Long time no hear huh! Sara it has been a long long time for you but glad to hear that Anna is doing well. My little "Princess Sophia" is doing very good. I have her in the day care on the installation that I work on and it is wonderful. Takes me five minutes to get there from work. She is getting settled into her sleeping pattern she sleeps about 41/2 hours at a time and then wakes for the bottle and change and goes right back to sleep. She is 3 months now and I think she may be teething already. Here lately she has been drooling a lot but no fussiness so I may be wrong or she may be one of the lucky ones that doesn't get the a__sociated pain. I'm thinking about starting some cereal with her formula. Do you guys think it is too soon? She will be 13 wks this friday. Stef, love the pics on facebook of little Ava. She is a doll!! Frances, did you ever get to see the pics of Sophia? I have some new ones that I have to download from my camera and I will send them out to everyone. I wish this site was more active. I miss the days of all the chatter but don't miss all the miscarriages a__sociated with it. Kristin and Allie please check in once and a while. I would love to hear how your pregnancies have been. Well off to work for me. Take Care ladies.

Hello, not sure where all you ladies disappeared to - Facebook I guess - but I wanted to thank you for supporting me after my loss in november 2007. I was around for a couple of months then put it out of my head completely - my own way of healing - I couldn't bear hearing about the pregnancies on the board because I was really torn up after a 6 week process of going to wrong hospital-getting misoprostol-bleeding forever and bleeding heavy-getting infections from misoprostol not doing its job-getting bad doctor who tried to charge me for a free service-going back to my old doctor-getting a proper D&C! It was too much and I waited a year and a half before even thinking about going for it again! So I just wanted to post that I have successfully reached 12 weeks today, 2 days further than the last time, am feeling great and my belly is poking out a bit. I hope you are all doing well and wanted to thank you all again for being so supportive when I didn't know where to turn. THANK YOU!!!

Hi ladies--- I know that it's been forever since I talked with all of you, and I know that the thread has moved to FB, but I wanted to reach a few of you. Maybe this thing will email? IDK...I can't get on FB at work but I will try to get on when i get home. Anyways....My family is expecting our third child this August!!! I am just over 10 weeks and the due date is August 2nd! I haven't posted on FB anywhere b/c I don't want to whole world to know yet...maybe in a few more weeks. But I wanted to tell all of you! Hope you all are doing well with your families...We are so excited for our little one...and our last! I'm done after this! Talk to ya later!

Hey Sara! That is awesome news!!! I'll post here instead of writing you on facebook since it sounds like you'll get this sooner? Sounds like another baby boom around here, lol. I'm almost 17 weeks along now, due June 19 with number 2 and this will be the last one for us! Robyn is also pregnant naturally and is about 8 weeks along I think? If you get a chance message me on facebook. Idon't remember to check here often but am so happy to hear your news. Annaka, BIG congrats to you too on your pregnancy I realized you posted quite a while ago and I hope you are holding your baby by now or just about to! :)

STEF---Congrats to you aswell!!! I will have to make it a point to get on FB tonight...it is so hard spending time on the computer at home after work. But I will make it a point to get on more often..with all this exciting news! Frances emailed me and told me about you and RObin. THat is awesome that she got pg naturally! I know that no one is on here any more, but I can't get on FB at work. THey block it so the kids at school don't spend thier whole day on it. So I will talk to you and everyone else later!!! So cool that we are going through this together again. Ava and Anna were only 2 days apart...but I hope to make it further along this time...even with my cervical issues...but I'll tell you more about it later on FB...thanks for responding anyhow!

WOOHOOO!!! Congratulations Sara!!! Im so happy for you! Thats just so awesome that youre pregnant again. Hopefully your cervix does a better job this time, and doesnt give you the c___p it gave you last time. Im so so excited about all the pregnancies on this board. Im going to live vicariously through all of you.. no more babies for this household.. 4 is enough. Especially because Chase is giving me such a good run for my money. Anyway, Sara.... when you get a chance get on FB.. we miss you!

That is awesome news Sara...so happy for you !!! Same goes to you STEF !! I guess also to Robyn...wow three babies already !!! I cant believe u are all on number two !!! I am praying for u all for a healthy nine months !!!
