Repst since I posted on the wrong one....Morning Girls. I hope everyone had a good weekend... Mine was fine besides the fact that I spent 2 hrs outside and got so burnt I can't move today and my legs are purple. It hurts so bad. Mother's Day was okay. I just laid around looking very lobstery.... Jermey cooked out for my mom, his mom, my gparents and me! So nothing too eventful....How was everyone else's?

 

mommaminchey - May 12

Oh I have a question for all those who have already given birth... How long do you bleed after you give birth. And how bad is it? No one has really mentioned this to me so I thought I would ask.

 

cnasmom - May 12

mmm sb, that sounds good! i got NOTHING, lol. well i did get something from my lil man they made at school, which made me cry, my first homemade gift! mommam, i think its a little different for everybody. i bled really heavy for like 5-7 days, with the clots and stuff, and then it tapered off but i continued to bleed for a few weeks, around the 3rd week it finally started to go away. but some women don't bleed that long and other bleed a little longer i think. but if you b___stfeed you still won't get an actual period for while usually! thats always a plus! lol, it took a few months for me to get a period, and i didn't get it til i started using formula and the b___stmilk.

SO here is my neat news! There is a brand new 3d/4d imaging clinic opening here in our city(first one in the province!) and I spoke to the lady opeing it at the baby expo a few weeks back. I left my name as interested, na dI got a call from them this weekend asking if I was still interested. If I was, they were offering to do the full 3d/4d scan with pics and a dvd and all the normal stuff - FREE OF CHARGE!!!:) The only catch was that I was willing to allow them to use the images of sweatpea for their website. I will be their first client and they want to give the tech a chance to get used to the new machine and they said they needed someone with patience to do that with her. I was like....ummm... longer to sit and see the baby???? Well heck yes!! And not have to pay you to do it.....OOK!!! :) So I am supposed to go on Friday afternoon for this. Very excited to see my little monkey again!!! She was pretty quiet this weekend, but I think it was only becasue I really wanted hubby to be able to feel her move. But she is soo stubborn and unco-operative when I want her to be. Tell tale sign of things to come maybe???

Oh Gabby... that is soooo sweet. Mike sounds liek a sweetheart!! And you are soo going to enjoy a pedicure!! I tried to give myself one last night and I didn't realize until then just how hard it actually is to get down there for long periods of time. I was wiped after and it really doesn't look all that good at all! lol!!

 

gabbysally - May 12

I know! that's why I got it, I was huffing and puffing trying to paint my toes, I told mike he had to do it or I was going to get a pedicure. I guess he didn't want to do it! haha it was so hard with this big belly!

 

mommaminchey - May 12

Gabbi- I would of cried too.. That is so sweet. My mom got me a mother to be card... I almost cried but I knew if I started I would never stop... Patti- You lucky duck... That sounds like so much fun. i bet they let you look for like 30-45min.

 

cnasmom - May 12

aww you are so lucky! i want a 3d/4d u/s sooooo badly since this is probably my last one! but we can't afford it. :( i won't get to see her again til 37 wks. and i am gonna make sure she is a she! lol. i keep dreaming its a boy!

 

softbreeze200 - May 12

Lol Gabby!! I can totally relate to the huffing and puffing and trying to distort my body in ways it never has been before just to reach my silly toes!!! Mommmam- that card sounds so nice. So weird being included in the whole mothers day thing now!! Cnas - I too just want an extra rea__surnace that it is a girl!! In all truths, at this point, I would still be estatic either way if my little girl did turn out to be a little boy, but I would need to know before hand! That big of a suprise would be too much for me at the hospital!! :) I am really excited about the scan, and it will be neat to have her pics used on their website!! She will be a star!!! Lol!! Mom's big dreams already hey!! :) I am a geek!!:) What is everyone having for lunch today?? I need some ideas! And I am really hungry already!! It is only 9:30!!

 

cnasmom - May 12

well i wouldn't be so worried if boys didn't run on my hubbys side, his grandaddy had all boys 5 i think, and his dad had 3 boys, no girls from either one, and the fact the she didn't want to cooperate at all. she kept her legs closed 2 times and was wiggling the one time she didn't have them closed. hmmmm, i am not sure what im having, i've actually been nauseous the last few days. i think my morning sickness is coming back...... ugh

 

mommaminchey - May 12

I brought a hot pocket, chips and a yogurt.... Nothing really exciting. I would much rather go out and get a hamburger and fries but I am still waiting on them to call about my GD test.... so I'll be sorta good for another day.

Hey you guyses. I can totally relate to the toe thing. I tried to paint my toes this weekend and I put my legs in positions I hadn't attempted since I was a child. Test went well this morning, except for the thirst and hunger part. Won't get the results unless there is something to report. Baby Creedence looked good. She's head down 2lbs 8oz and measuring a few days big, but I'm keeping my due date. And surprisingly I had her position spot on. Those are here little feet right below my b___b. Ah, yes and I gained 3 lbs in 3 weeks, but that is much better than the previous which was like 9lbs in 4 weeks. But I have officially hit my 175 goal and I still have 12 weeks to go. Oh well. Glad everyones' Mothers Day went well. My husband couldn't get back from work in time. :-( But no big deal, I made my self and Josephine waffles that morning (my other 2 had gone to church with my parents) and I handed her the waffle and she said in her cute little 2 year old lisp "You're the best, mom" Plus kiddos got me a pedicure (courtesy of my parents). Everyday is Mother's Day anyhow, right? I think I am coming down with something. Stuffy nose and sore throat, good fun!

 

mommaminchey - May 12

Erin you make me feel so much better.. All weekend I have odsessed with the fact that Maosn was 2.5 lbs. and how big they said that was for this time... But if she is 2.8lbs and they weren't worried than I am not worried...lol. They ahven't called with my results and so I out a call in just now and left a message for them to call me... Hopefully they will today!

 

softbreeze200 - May 12

Good to hear all went well at the docs this morning ekay!! And that Creedence is looking good! I am really interested to know what position this one is in since I really don't have a clue!! You are right - everyday is mothers day! Cnas- that is alot of boys!! But I am sure it is a girl still! :) Momma - that lunch actually sounds pretty good to me!! Lol!! But I think anything does these days!!

 

cnasmom - May 12

i am betting mine weighs close to 3 lbs already if not more! big babies run on my side of the family, lol. ahhh, my lil girl is doing so good potty training today! she says, i potty mommy, and i take her and she pees! so good! no diapers til july/aug! yay! other than my hip giving me major pains today, i think its been an ok day, but i have to take my lil man to the eye doc in a lil while and his sister too because no one to watch her :( so its gonna be fun... he has to have it for school, how do they test a 3 year olds eyes??? just curious, lol. is anyone else getting morning sickness again? i feel yucky the last few days. maybe thats good since i am WAY past the 175 mark ekay! lol, i am currently 218! i am 5'9 or 5'10, its always different but im tall anyways, but still i don't like weighing that much, i didn't want to get past 200 this time which would have meant me only gaining 10 lbs but still. maybe i will hang out at this weight, i remember when i had my other two that i maintained the last couple months, cuz i couldn't eat as much, they squished my tummy, lol, which is a good thing i guess!

 

ekay03 - May 12

Now mommam, was mason 2.5 lbs or 2lbs 5oz? Because technically she is 2.5 lbs because 2.5 lbs = 2lbs 8oz. Know what I mean? I hope your results are negative! I will be crossing my fingers. I meant to say on my last post that that is so cool Patti you get a FREE u/s! You are one lucky gal and it could take a while to boot. Cnas, i sympathize with you 100%. Everytime I have to take a kid to the doc, I have to take EVERYBODY. It's always a bowl full of cherries.
