Momma - I am really gald to hear that you are where you need to be to get better. I hope you feel better soon and that they figure out what is happening. Gabby- glad to hear that your BH are done and all is well at your end as well. I guess now is the time that all the panicy stuff starts again right?? Ekay - I talked to my dr today and she said that everything is measuring right on track and that yes she agreed that I looked on the smaller side, but that it is very normal and does not mean any cause for concern. SHe said I am carrying really really low and that does contribute lots to how big your belly looks. Lots of women will carry higher and then once the baby drops they appear smaller. Well, I am already dropped, so that is where the smallness is coming from. That and she said I have good sized hips and pelvis and she is probably wedged in there nice and tight and is hiding out. I feel much better about it all now, and am actaully thankful that she is sitting so low and that it is not uncomfy right now. She gave me the green light to go to NY as well, so PHEW!! They did another NST and she said that she is a very happy healthy baby in there, so that made me happy too. But then we jumped on the scale - uh went up 4 pounds in two weeks - so not good. I really ahve to get my a__s on track and watch what I shove in my mouth or else I am going to be in trouble. I kinda knew I was going to weigh over. Ugh that is twice as much as the recomended amount. And we still have lots of time left. Well, I am off for the afternoon and going test driving - wish me luck ladies - I hate doing this, especially by myself. Check back in with you all later. Momma - take it easy in there and get lots of rest for both you and Mason. (HUGS)

Patty, great to hear about your appt pumpkin! Especially now that your (and my) worry about the small belly is at ease. :-) I still feel my fundus and it just below my ribs, so I know she is obviously growing. Anyhow, don't fret about the 4lbs. I am a firm believer that eating within an hour of weighing contributes at least 1-2 lbs. Then there are shoes, heaving clothing, etc. ;-) I have been super bad since I moved in with my mom. When I go grocery shopping, I'm like 'oh, my stepdad would like that.' So I get it, but I end up eating whatever it is myself as well. Plus, I am so concerned about keeping her house clean, I don't get to eat dinner until after the kids go to bed and well, peanut b___ter and jelly sandwhiches right before bedtime can only go one place! Anamaria, my myspace is /barjw. I will try to add you today.

Just thought that I would let everyone know that I am having a much better day today!! I finally found that stinking key last night after tearing my house apart. I had forgotten to take it out of my pants when I got home Friday night. It then must have fallen out and gotten mixed up with the other laundry, and eventually made its way to the bottom of the pile. Go figure!! At least I found it though!!! My boss put me training a new girl for a little while today. He told her it was safe today because I seemed alot nicer than yesterday....lol. I swear I had venom just oozing for anyone that p__sed me off yesterday. Then, today I woke up happy as can be. Oh yeah, my friend told me about Lanisoh(?), it's pure lanolin(?) that is sold at Walmart in the baby section to help prepare nipples for b___stfeeding. Plus, it's supposed to ease the pain after feeding. Have any of you ever heard of it? I bought some today because I really want to b___stfeed, but my nipples hurt so much that I'm afraid I'm going to starve the baby before I can toughen them up. I'm calling next week to schedule an appointment for us to attend a b___stfeeding cla__s designed for couples. Anyone have any advice to just throw at me that may help me to get over my sensitive girlies?

Morning girls... I'm back. I am so extremely tired today. I can't wait for a lazy weekend. Jeremy and his friends are going out on a house boat this weekend so I can't wait to have some me time... I still don't know what caused my breathing and heart rate and it really sucks... I am still having a hard time breathing. I'll be back in a bit. I need to read what all I missed.

Morning ladies!! Momma - I am glad to hear you are home again. Frustrating to not know what caused it though. Are they going to continue doing some tests at all? Anna - I tried to find you on myspace, but I couldn't. mine is softbreeze200. see if you can maybe add me. I will check it tonight! Gabby - I did register, but I haven't told anyone about it! LOL!! So obviously no one bought anything from it. Mom and my BF are throwing a small shower on June 11th for me with just a couple people, and then the small town where I live always throw one after baby is born and people just don't do registries. So I haven't added to mine or anything. To date I have pretty much bought everything that I need so far. I am pretty much ready for her to come, just waiting on her car seat to arrive and to find a vehicle for her. You are going to get so much stuff for your shower!! That is so exciting!! You could always add some stuff that you wont need till later, like a higchair and a bumbo seat and a playpen. Or add supplies like diapers, shampoo's creams, wipes, etc. Hopeful - glad to hear that you found that key!! I did the same thing about a month ago and literally ripped joint apart looking for it. Turns out.....it was on my key ring, and the stupid cover that was on it fell off,s o it loked liek the rest of the keys! Oops.. now it has become a running joke her at work. Great!! :) As far as that Lanisoh... I too bought some. It was reccomended by my auntie who is a labour nurse. She said to start using it before you have baby for a week or so to allow your nipples to get used to it, and to make sure to take it to the hospital with you. You will NEED it! And you don't need to wipe it off before baby feeds which is great. Erin - the eating late is part of my problem too. By the time I get home, either do the horse chores or have ball, byt he time I get home and eat, I either watch tv for abit or I just go straight to bed. Obvisoulsy it is going to other places it shouldn't! Ugh. In the long run I keep telling myself I don't care, don't be so vain, as long as she is healthy it doesn't matter. I can work my a__s off after to get rid of the weight. (I hope!)

Ok ,so my naming saga continues... What do you guys think of Shayne Grace?? The only problem I can see with it is that there is a cousin named Shane (boy - but he is 18 already) that lives in the same town. But I really like the name for a girl.

I love that name patti - that was one of my choices for a boys name. did hubby approve it? I am looking somewhat forward to my shower, but I'm anxious too b/c I hate being the center of attention. but all those presents will make it worthwhile!! I already put all that stuff on my registry that you mentioned!! I really don't think there's anything I want or need that I can add. I just have to hope that people get giftcards if there's nothing left instead of picking out stuff - I already have so much clothes (my mother is a shopaholic) and we registered for everything we will need. I know I sound snobby like I'm complaining about this, I'm sorry! it's just what's on my mind at the moment. I'm just a control freak!! patti, weather is looking good so far. it's supposed to be in the 70's for the rest of the week which is perfect weather. let me know if you need help packing clothes - I know you go by celcius so you might have trouble figuring out what kind of clothes you'll need. I'm here to help!!
