Renee, there is a few with the same name on facebook... are you in any networks or did you register with a middle name? My name is Katherine Dupuis for those of you who are on facebook... and my picture is one of a belly in a pink shirt!!!

Hey ladies. Just came from my appt & dr STILL hasn't given me a csection date. It's a little frustrating since last time I knew months in advance. I had been measuring right on target and then today, BAM! I'm measuring 32 weeks and I'm only 30. chatty - do not feel bad about your baby shower. I'm having a joint one with my SIL and she has about 50 people on her guest list, while I have about 12 - 5 of which are on her guest list as well, which really means I only have about 7. Isn't that sad? Lol. reneenay - wow, deja vu! My dog ran out the garage while it was closing and I busted my a** trying to run after her and catch her. Darn dogs.

Oh, I didn't even think that anyone else would have my name...duh. I didn't reg with a middle name or anything but my picture is of myself and my husband, he's got sungla__ses on. Yes, RMC, I agree...d__n dogs! I love her to death but she really p__sed me off! Chatty, don't worry about the shower thing...I've had to deal with the MIL with the family one I had recently. First of all, she had to tell me over and over that she payed for it, then she flaked out at the last minute and didn't even show up. Great Grandma, huh? Of course my SIL's did all the actual work. I was so mad I sent her a thank you for her gift but not for the shower...well, not that I was shocked, but she left me a message today telling me one more time that she payed for it...guess I can't avoid sending another thank you or she'll never leave me alone about it! She's real subtle :)

Oh, sorry, I accidentally told you about the picture of me that's on myspace. On facebook it is also of myself and my husband but he doesn't have sungla__ses on. Hope that helps! Let me know if you still can't find me.

 

RMC - March 13

reneenay- wow, she actually kept reminding you that she paid for it? that's crazy! i hear horror stories about mil's all the time, but luckily, mine has been great so far, so i guess i got lucky.

 

CgGirl - March 13

reneenay: I'll check again on facebook tonight. About MILs... sigh. That's all I can say. Mine is a full load as well, so I better not get started. But I sympathize!

 

reneenay - March 13

So get this: I spoke with my SIL today who did most of the work for my shower and she said my MIL actually hasn't paid her a dime for it yet...and if she ever does she will only pay for half. Can you believe that? What a liar! Well, at least my son will have one great set of grandparents.

Reneenay that is such BS!!! Wow talk about low.... funny how nice and sweet they can be until you get married then its a big compet_tion over one person, *roll eyes* RMC your lucky with your MIL... my hubby has decided from the 4D that my daughter has his nose, which if you seen it well you would understand. Thats not the bad part... everytime I read a email from my MIL it has some mention of the "nose" in it.... she has the same one. Just what I need my child looking like my MIL. I just want to tell her to shove the nose you know where.If my child has her FATHERS nose great but its not hers and i wish she would shut the hell up about it....Oh Renee I love all the mommy to be stuff on your layout! That is so awesome. I tried to find some but just didnt find really any I liked...Well I turn the big 30 wk tomorrow and already started the countdown.... lets go!!! wooo hooo

Good morning ladies! I'm hitting the 32 week mark today!! wv_red: we did not have the 4d ultrasound, but my mil was even trying to find resemblance between my l/o and herself on the black and white pictures! We stopped sending the pictures to them... they always find a way (my mil in particular) to make everything about them. At least my dh agrees with me and is equally annoyed. But it stresses me a lot, because I'm afraid I'm going to burst at some point... anyhow, I'm happy to see I'm not alone. JAIRA: what's up? We haven't heard from you in a while. I hope all is well!

haha, you poor ladies! Luckily, BF's mother hasn't been like that at all and I am very grateful. The only thing has been with my mother, and its only mildly annoying that she refer to my baby as "our baby boy". Its never "my grandson," its usually "my boy". Not that I want to throw a fit about it, but sometimes I just want to say "NO, MINE!!" lol --- Is there anyone who hasn't set up the nursery yet? We're waiting to move into an apartment (one month to go!) so even though we're acc_mulating things in storage, we haven't been able to actually set anything up yet. Its driving me INSANE! I feel like a crazy person, because I am definitely nesting. I organize and reorganize everything, but of course that doesn't help because I want to actually see a finished nursery in all its glory!

I'm still here. I read your posts daily. It's just been difficult. I haven't switched hospitals and won't be moved until after Spring Break next week. So at most, 1 more week in this dump. My doctor did say that the cerclage will be removed at 36 weeks and that more than likely l/o will come soon afterward. I know this is great news as I'm already 35 weeks, but the thought of being away from my family for 5-6 more weeks seems like a long time. Please don't get me wrong. I'm extremely greatful that I've made it this far (all things considered) and hope to make it the 5-6 additional weeks. It's just rough. I think often times I'm at my breaking point. I know all will be quickly forgotten when l/o is here, but in the meantime it's rough. I know that we'll do a shower afterward, but in the school that I taught at I was one of 5 who were pregnant. So as I check my emails and see the showers that are coming, I can't help but feel sad. Okay....enough feel sorry for myself....

 

Jairia - March 14

Totally screwed up last post...I'm only 31 weeks....wishful thinking to be 35 I guess.....

i just wanted to say you guys are awesome. hahaha.. that probably sounds weird coming from someone you dont know.. but i was one of last year's what we like to call.. the original may mommies haha. i was due the 7th, had my ds max on my due date. anyways, we we were a pretty tight group.. and we all stayed friends after we had our babies too! we even have our own forum website now where we still talk on a daily basis like you guys do on here. let me tell you, the support you get from these forums is awesome.. and if you all can stay friends after you have your babes, do it! it helps so much to have people to talk to! we're all really good friends, and our babies are almost a year old! we're even meeting up for the first time as a group in new york city at the end of the month. its so much fun to have other mommy friends who have gone through it all with you! i think this friendship we all have is gonna last for quite some time.. and i think we'll have regular get togethers in the future. there are three of us who are already expecting again.. just newly pregnant though. so like i said, stay friends if you can! its totally worth it! and good luck with all of your deliveries! heres to some happy healthy babies and mommies! =]

Jaira - oh man, one more week? Poor thing, that sucks very badly. blairmama- congrats on your new pregnancy! chatty - my nursery is up and ready to go. Granted, we already had a nursery since my youngest is only one, but we did put the new crib and dresser together, and I've washed all his clothes and put them away. Only thing I have left to do is put the linen in the crib, but I'll wait until he comes home to do that. cggirl -lol, that's funny about the u/s pictures. wv_red - yes luckily my mil is pretty cool, I don't have to deal with these horror stories I read lol

 

ChattyKathy - March 15

JAIRIA, I'm sorry you're having a rough time. The important thing is that your little one be healthy. Its not exactly the "ideal" pregnancy, but being able to hold your little one in your arms at the end of this journey will TOTALLY make it all worth it. I know it feels like an eternity, but another month is nothing compared to what you've already been through. You're a tough cookie and you can make it through this! I'm rooting for ya! April is gonna be your month!!!

 

blairmama - March 15

oh no, im not pregnant. three of my girlfriends on the forum are.. but unfortunately not me. we're trying though.. so im hoping in the next few months! thanks though =]
