Pregnancy Info HOME

Sorry there was a dilema here at work so I don't have much time. Now I understand where you are coming from with the Dr's. When I asked my Dr. he said that he has delivered quite a few sets of twins. So that made me feel good. Take care and have a good weekend I will be back in on Monday at 1 p.m.

Good Day! So, how did the weekend go? Mine was alright...I hung out with my sister most of the time. Got lots of sleep, too. So, today is the day I tell me boss that I'm outta here in 4 weeks...4 weeks!!! I'm so excited I could pee...no, that's just the babies. Lol! I don't know what to look forward to more. My last day of work or my ultrasound! Tee hee! The last week in June is going to be an exciting one for me! But, I have lots to do. I talked to my girlfriend last night. Her daughter is two and when she heard I was having twins she thought that would be the perfect excuse to get rid of all her baby stuff! So, she's selling me the following: A crib, a swing, a basinette, a bath tub, maternity clothes, baby clothes, stoller/car seat combo (Single), and lots of other misc. baby stuff. How much, you ask? Get this... $100.00 for everything! Really! So, I'm going to visit her on Wednesday to take a look. I know of another gal who is excpecting a baby and to put it lightly, she's not very well off. (baby was unexpected) so I think I might just give her the stroller / car seat. I have two, so don't really need it. I'm excited about the stuff! Well, I hope you have a great day wheny ou get to work. Write when you have time! Erin

Hey Erin! Well, my weekend was really good. We finally got our lawn put in! Now it has been raining on and off so it looks like it happened at a good time! What a steal on all the goodies. I am jealous. You know I haven't boughten anything yet for the twins. I kind of feel bad. I think I am just waiting for this ultrasound on Thursday to make sure everything is going good. I haven't seen them since 8 weeks! I can't wait. All this week I won't be in the office until 1 and then on Thursday I have the whole day off. Good luck telling your boss! So do they have to hold your job until you return?

Hi there, stranger! Nice to hear from ya! Ya, all that stuff for almost nothing. I'm pretty excited about that. Suprisingly, I haven't bought a whole lot, either. I hit some garage sales and picked up some clothes and a picture frame, but haven't purchased anything from a store. I did get some coupons for nipples and soothers so I might start stocking up here in a bit. So, what's up on Thursday? And, I haven't talked to my boss yet. I think he's afraid of me...

Hopefully on Thursday I will be able to get a 3D u/s also. After I have everything confirmed I think I am then going to start stocking up on diapers especially and hopefully we will find out the s_xes also, so then of course if there is a girl I am going to need everything. I can hardly wait. So I will be e-mailing you first thing on Friday afternoon when I come in about my appointment. I have been starting to get pretty sick lately. This morning was awful. Good thing I didn't have to come to work until later. I got this way when I was pregnant with Carson. It really hit me around 7 months. That was hard being so big and then having to hurl over a toilet. Maybe that was to much info for you. That is super funny that your boss is ignoring you. Are you going back there after the babies are born? I know that I am coming back to work but I am not for sure how long. We really need the insurance because it is so expensive through my husbands work. I am hoping that it isn't going to be to long before I can stay home. I stayed home with Carson for 2 years after he was born and I miss every day with him!

Hi! No, that wasn't too much information...I'm pretty sick, too. I barely had any morning sickness with Reegan, so this is different. It's almost every morning and in the evening if I eat something. Your days must be dragging until Thursday, hey? Mine sure are. But I have to wait another 19 days! Well, I guess that's better than nothing... As for work, I don't really know if I'm coming back here or not. They will hold my position. (By law they have to) But, if I came back, there would be some serious discussions as to who I answer to. If I come back and am still under direction from the boss I have right now, not a chance. (He's the reason I'm leaving...kinda) But, I don't think working would justify paying childcare for 2 kids at the same time. So, if we get the renovations done that we want to, maybe I'll start a dayhome...I'm sure my sister would love a rate break for childcare for her three kids! I don't know yet. But, I would love to stay home and raise my kids. I want Reegan to be able to come home for lunch...And I want to be able to walk her to school. (Even though we can practically throw a ball and hit the school from our back yard...) But, that's what I want. Man, I hope your ultrasound goes awesome!

I'm here! What a day it has been! Carson had a bad day at school today and I am still not feeling so well. I am totally with you about wanting to be home. I am almost thinking about it. I wish I could take more time off this summer. I am thinking that I am going to start cutting back on hours in Sept. I would like to in Aug but I doubt that is going to happen. I am starting to re look at all my options here. Like I said before we really need the insurance. I don't know what to do! Yes, Thursday couldn't come soon enough for me. I can't wait. I have been feeling a lot of movement really low today. It is kind of funny.

Hi jb. I'm sorry your not feeling well. I'm not feeling well either. I threw up in the parking lot of the gas station this morning. People must have thought I was drunk!! And, my boss is a jerk. He's making me really uncomfortable here. He doesn't talk to me or even acknowledge me. Good thing I won't have to deal with it for much longer... I got my disability form all filled out. I just have to work up the energy to walk it up the two flights of stairs to payroll!! Lol! I miss mu hubby. He's out of town rght now. He's not due back until Friday evening. It's kinda nice, but I miss him. And his daughter misses him, too. I;m kinda bummed....

I didn't know he was out of town! For work I suppose huh? Mine leaves on June 25th to go fishing up there by international falls or something like that. Then he is gone for over a week. I think I am going to be pretty bummed while he is gone also. I know Carson is going to be a bear, so I decided to take a week off and we are going to go to the zoo and hang out just the 2 of us. That is to bad about your boss. I had a little bit of a run in with mine last week as well. They just don't get it. He is probably just mad because he has to find someone to do as good of a job as you do and he knows it is going to be tuff! So I take it you told him huh? I am feeling a little bit better. I went and got a raspberry smoothie and that has helped. What foods are you staying away from? There is always such a long list that sometimes I think I forget!

Hi. Ya, hubby is gone for some courses. But he called me at 6:30 this monring! Just to tell me to have a great day. What a sweetheart. makes me miss him more. As for my boos, ya, I e-mailed him. He was gone all last week so yesterday I sent him a friendly e-mail just asking him to make some time for me once he's settled. Nothing. So, today, once he took off for a tow hour lunch, I e-mailed him and told him that since he can't make the time, and we have to get the ball rolling that I have gone ahead, got my forms signed and have already talked to my HR manager. Done. i have now taken the forms to payroll (up all those stairs!) and things are on the go. My official last day of work is June 30 and I will be off for almost 17 months!!! You should move to Canada! I went to the vending machine and bought a Pepsi (something I NEVER do), and a coffee crisp. And I won! The vending machine has a "winner" function and it spits your money back out! So, that totally made my day. And, hey, that's really nice of you to take time off to spend with your son. If he was older, he'd really appreciate that.

I already have 2 kids by different men. My daughter's father is past on & my son's father I dumped. I'm with a guy whom adopted my son. I don't know if I'm pregnant again. I feel it thow. Please help.

Hello to you! I haven't been around much...don't have a computer as I am training someone to replace me. My last day is in 9 days!! And, after the weather we had yesterday, I can't wait! I am in the middle of my 18th week right now and go for my ultrasound on Monday! Woohoo! You have no idea how excited I am! I have been having some really weird dreams lately. Everyone that I tell about my pregnancy asks if there is a chance that there may be triplets in there....that scares me. The first question I am going to ask the technician is how many kids are there? If she says three, I think I might faint! (Good thing I'll be lying down....) Lol! But, I have no fears that they won't be happy and healthy. My mother's instinct tells me that they are fine and large. We are getting things started around our house, too. We have a flooring guy coming tomorrow to do an estimate on new flooring in the upstairs. That'll be nice. The carpet in our house was so bad when we moved in that we ripped it out and the living room upstairs has been plain old plywood for almost a year. We had planned to finish it sooner, but other stuff kept coming up. So, now we are getting it done. I told my DH that I won't have two infants in my house with no flooring on the main level. No way! So, that is exciting for me. Other than that, things are doing well. Babies are growing and moving a lot. I feel them battling it out in there. It's nice to ba able to just relax at work and not really have to do anything. The gal that I am triaing and I are pretty good friends, even outside of work so that makes for nice conversation. So, how are you feeling? How are babes?

Nice to hear from you! Well, I am doing pretty good. On Monday I fell at at the grocery store and that put me out of commission. I couldn't walk that night at all. I showed up at work yesterday and my Dr. called and told me that I needed to go home. I don't think they where to happy about it here at work but oh well. Babies are moving a lot. Just wait till you see yours! It was so exciting. I know what you mean about battling it out. That is the first thing I saw he was kicking at her. It was so cute. Now we really have to start thinking about names. We have 2 so far for each s_x but neither of us have really sat down and thought about it. My mom thought I was having triplets also. She said you keep this up and you are going to have 10 lb babies. That kind of hurt my feelings because I have only gained 11 lbs! I don't know maybe that is a lot but I don't think so. I am hoping that next time I go to the Dr. I can get him to say I have to cut my hours. Right now I have a heating pad and a pillow and I am sitting in the sun so I feel like I am going to die. The tech told us the babies have long legs. I don't know where they would have gotten that from because we are both on the shorter side. I am so excited for you and your ultrasound. I am going to be off all next week but I will check from home. My DH is going to be up there fishing so I took the week off to take Carson to the waterpark and zoo and just relax. Keep in touch and you are so luck to be able to be done working!

Oh my gosh! I hope everything is fine! That's scary stuff...My equilibirum has been all out of whack lately. And I'm having a hard time reaching the taps on my kitchen sink. Ha! My girlfriend says I'm abnormally large. That's scary, too. But, we have a busy weekend planned so that should make the time go quickly. We are laying the laminate flooring in reegan's new room this weekend. As well as baseboards and casings. I have some paint touch-ups to do and then Sunday my DH has a golf tourny so I will be moving furniture! (Well, whatever I can manage by myself, unless my sister is home to help.) My girlfriend said she'd come by and help me, too. So, I should have my daughter in her new room by Monday! That'll be nice. I bet I'll get a lot more sleep. Anyway, I want you to take it easy, girl! Rest. I know it's hard with a little one, but maybe get some movies and grab some blankets and curl up on the couch together! Write me and keep me posted as to how you're feeling. Hubby and AI are going out next week to look at computers so I can get up and running at home. (I think we're going to junk the old one and get a laptop...) Take care! Erin

I am sorry it has taken so long for me to get back to you. I have been so busy! Good luck on your ultrasound! Let me know how it goes. I will be off for 10 days but I will check it at home! Let me know what you are having!

Ji jb!!! Well, it is official! There are two babies in there! What an experience! And, it turns out that my motherly instinct was right and my DD is going to have two brothers! They were very active and look to be the same size. I'm sure I'll find out more about them tomorrow at my doctor's appt. DH was very excited to see his sons on tv! I am very happy to share my news with you! And, we should be getting our new home computer in the next couple days, so I don't have to worry about losing touch. Take care! Erin
