Pregnancy Info HOME

Hey ladies, well the 'morning' sickness has finally hit me :( Lisa, I hope everything is ok with Ethan, that is so scary. Amanda, it's good to hear from you, and I'm glad you're doing well. Lisa, I just looked at the piczo, Tristan's cake is so cute, you do an amazing job. I still can't believe some of our babies are already a year, and the others are right around the corner. Well, off to bed for me. Hope everyone is doing well.

Amanda, glad everything is going well with this pregnancy! Krissy, sounds like alot of work! And Kim, I always felt horrible for the first 3 months with my pregnancies. Hang in there, I do know how bad it can be! Well, we are off to my parents cabin this weekend. They have a cabin in the middle of the Ozark National Forest. So we will be swimming and 4-wheeling all weekend. My friend and her boy friend are going with us. Kyleig has 6 teeth now, she cut 4 teeth in the last week. She has been a pill because of it. Crazy all our babies will be a year or some already are. Makes me sad!

Hey KIM congrats on the morning sickness. I know you are probably like "what the heck is she talking about?" but the first time i was preggo i had no morning sickness and i lost that pregnancy but the second time i had it and i was go greatful b/c it meant things were going well. KIMBERLY, yeah it's been a lot of work but we are almost there and it will be so nice to eat in an actual dining room instead of a pub table cramed into the corner of our living room. Your little trip sounds like fun, i wish i could go to. My dh and i are looking at mid September to go camping, hopefully we actually make it happen. Well J's b-day party is this weekend and i've been trying to clean and get ready for it, it's so hard when your in the middle of construction and your child pulls out everything you just put away. LOL

Hi girls. Sorry it's been so long. Mira knows how to keep me busy! I just wanted to pop in and say that I'm pregnant again! I think I'm about 5 or 6 weeks, but I'm not really sure. I go to the doctor on the 11th. I'm really nervous about whether or not everything is going well (my 1st preg was a blighted ovum), but I'm doing better at staying calm the last few days. (Thanks for your post on the first tri board, Krissy!) And the morning sickness has kicked in already! Kim, congrats on your bfp!! How far along are you?

Yeah Krissy, I know what you mean about the morning sickness. I have to keep reminding myself of that. Good luck with the party and let us know how it goes. Kimberly, camping sounds so much fun, I hope you have a blast!! Jess, congrats girl!! I really don't know how far along I am....going by lmp, about 10.5 weeks...but we kept getting neg hpt and blood tests until a few weeks ago. so I go into the dr on the 11, for an ultrasound, so we shall see then. hope everyone is doing well, off to bed for me.

Hey ladies, well we had J's b-day party and it was lots of fun, but very tiring getting ready for it. We were up really late 2 nights in a row putting down the tile floor and the day of the party i spent all day cleaning so needless to say i was tired but we still all managed to have good time. Jacquelyn got a lot of fun things and some really cute outfits plus some money for her college fund. I made her a little personal heart cake, she was so cute she would grab for it but stop right before she touched it, so basically i ended up feeding it all to her. Well i'm tired from this weekend so i think i will take a shower and go to bed. I can't wait to hear about other 1st b-days.

hey ladies thought i would pop in here we had 2 parties this weekend for mariam they went really well she really enjoyed the cake she made a good mess too she like the idea of being able to eat it with her hands she did a raspberry to blow the candle out it was sooo cute as soon as the candle went out her hands were in the cake lol. we did a princess them with a dress that looked like the one from cinderella and we had a crown that said princess for a day.krissy glad here j party went well also sounds like she had a good time too

You all need to stop getting preggers again, you all are making me miss my baby years! lol! Congrats, Jess! Kyleigh will be a year old in 10 days! She is getting her shots today and Isaac is getting his kindergarten physical with his shots today. I am at work so dh will have to do it...Ha Ha! I am such a bum I just got around to enrolling Isaac in school and because I waited so long, which is totally my fault, he may not get into a school that is close to us. Another words I will probably have to drive him back and forth like I had to do with Ryan last year. With gas so high I am hoping he will get in the closer school. I guess we are a bit over populated for our schools here and they are always full. There is a church giving away school supplies and newer used clothes and new shoes this Saturday, I have never gotten thier clothes that way but I am seriously considering it right now because I am so broke. Do you all think the clothes would be nice and not make my kids look like nerds? Silly question I guess, but I have no idea what kinds of stuff they will have. Anyway I will probably go and check it out. Happy Birthday to all of our babies who have already had thiers and Krissy and Tanya, glad your parties turned out! Krissy, sounds like you need some "me" time with all that work you have been doing. Have a great day ladies!

KIMBERLY, I know, it seems like everyone is pregnant again. It makes me want another but honestly i still feel like i am recovering from J's birth. My c-section incision still feels a little tender, nothing bad, just noticible sometimes. Plus i just don't feel i could handle another baby so soon. I told my dh that i wouldn't even consider another baby until J was potty trained, which may actually be sooner than i thought. We have had some very successful pottys. If she has to go and i put her on she will go right away, but i won't consider her fully potty trained until she can go to the potty herself and since she is not even walking yet it may be a while.

You know Krissy, my best friend, Rhonda had her son 22 months ago and she says her incision is still sore and tender. I wonder if that is normal? I am glad I didn't have a C because I have had enough surgeries to last me a lifetime already. About 34 to be exact. I am done having babies though, but I am so going to miss the whole pregnancy/newborn thing. They just grow up so fast! Our thread is so slow anymore, well the whole forum is really.

hey krissy good luck with potty trianing we have been doing interval with mariam she been doing awsome no mistakes yet. kimberly most people are on cafemom now becuase of the virus goin around on this forum iam there all the time so if you want to chat just sent me a pm there

Hey ladies!! Krissy and Tanya, good luck with the potty training. Kenadie is also doing well with it. Both girls were up the other night with fevers of over 102...so I took them in the next day and they thought it was strepthroat, however the cultures came back neg and they have blisters in their mouths. Well I took them back in today and they have hand foot and mouth disease....yuck!! This is aweful, they are both so miserable. Kylee's fever has finally broke, but Kenadie's is still high. And because of the blisters in the mouth they don't like to eat or drink cause it hurts. Has anyone heard of this before?

Good morning girls sorry I have been gone but I have been really busy. First of all Ethan is doing great. We got his test results back he is just passing out from holding his breath. From what I understand 5 % of babies can hold their breath until they pass out and will out grow it by 6 yrs of age. So we are lucky he is in the 5%. He has now passed out 6 times. It can happen more often when he is tired, if he gets scared, too excited, or crying. We had his birthday party 2 weeks ago. It turned out great. I am going to post new pics today. Good news we are moving on Sept 4th to a new house and it is bigger too. Not looking forward to the move but I am looking forward to all the kids having their own rooms. There will be less fighting. Kim all my kids but Ethan have had 5th disease. The dr had them gargle with maalox but now swallow it. That would help them eat because it numbs the blisters in their mouth for a little while. Tristan got it his first week of kinder and was out for 10 days because it is extremely contagious for other kids to catch.

Kim I meant to say not swallow it. Sorry, about that.

Well this Hand, foot and mouth virus is absoultely aweful. On Friday night, Kenadie's temp was 103, so I gave her tylenol. I had her in my bed to keep an eye on her, after she was asleep about an hour I felt her legs start convulsing...so i turned on the lights...she was having a seizure. That is the scariest thing I have ever seen in my life, and I hope never to see it again. So we called 911, they figured it was a febrile seizure from having the fever. It was completely terrifying to see her like that. By sat kylee was feeling better, but kenadie still didn't want to eat anything or drink anything. Anything we got her to take down, she immediately threw it back up. I was so worried about dehydration, but our ped kept telling me she'll be ok. But today, they are both back to their old selves (thank goodness) Kenadie started taking her bottles again this morning and eating solid foods. I hope we never get this again and hope none of you do either. Anyways, this am I went into the dr. the ultrasound tech was out, so the PA tried to do it. She said she thinks I"m about 12 weeks along, and we saw the heart beat. They scheduled me for another u/s when the dr can do it to check the growth. Well gotta go make dinner.

KIM, OMG that is so scarry, i'm glad they are both feeling better though. And wow, could you really be almost in the second trimester already? Time sure does go fast. Well J had her 1 year check up. She is 21 lbs. and 29.5 in. The doc. says she is doing well but we had to do shots and a blood draw today to check for lead poisining, i guess that is mandatory. Poor J she hated it all and it was so hard for me to have to hold her down while they drew the blood. It seemed like the lady was going so slow, i just wanted to yell at her and tell her to hurry up, can't she see my baby is in pain. Ok i need to go to bed, J has decided 5:15 am is her new wake up time. LOL
