I havent been pregnant very long, but I think I will miss it. Mainly because I longed for it so much, and its so exciting to think about a life growing inside me (cant wait to feel the baby!). Its just so mind blowing to me to think that our baby is sitting inside me...very cool. But other than the gall bladder problems I've had a pretty easy pregnancy so far. I'm enjoying it. And I think maternity clothes are so cute! I can wear them and not worry about my poochy belly because I can at least SAY its baby, not fat! And I've been told this past week that I am "glowing" which I'm glad for because for a while it was just acne!

I think I'll mostly miss how easy June Bug is to take care of on the inside ... I do like being pregnant, though. I guess we'll see if I miss it! I've truly been blessed with a relatively easy pregnancy, but I can imagine that for those of you who have difficulties (especially medically like you, Sarah!) that being pregnant isn't the greatest!

Adria - I'm glad that your new church family is so supportive! I'm glad that you found them!!!!

Amy - YAY!! I'm so glad that everything went well at your appointment! Praise God!

Oh, I forgot that one. I concur, that is the one other thing I will miss about pregnancy.

I will admit though that I really enjoyed pregnancy until my swelling and pre-e started. My ankles, feet, and legs swelled so much that they hurt and there was just no way to get comfortable. They also itched from my skin being so taught I'll take the 16 weeks of morning sickness over that any day I am hoping that some prescription strength compression panty hose like Kim has will help next time though...

Hey ladies!! I just wanted to let you know I finally posted my birth story in my stalking thread. I'd love to type more but its a bit difficult as I'm using only one hand. . .the other one is occupied by a wide-awake, stubborn, but totally adorable baby.

I miss being pregnant. I loved it. I can't count how many people came up to me and told me I was glowing or beautiful. I loved feeling the baby move and I loved wearing maternity clothes and being able to eat an entire watermelon in one sitting, everything tasted so good when I was pregnant! Of course that was until the last 6 weeks... I could do without those!


Ditto. However if you ask my hubby he would respond like Sarah. With my pregnancy with Mary he kept saying he couldn't wait till there was no belly because he wanted his "wife" back. (to be able to cuddle with no belly in the way) [color]

2. No periods


Indeed!!

Well we are back. U/S went well. Baby is healthy, a mover, very much a mover. Moved so much more than Nadia in the womb. I was surprised. She saw all the things that they look for to see if they were normal and they are. She was unable to get her 'prescribed' picture of the heart and lips, just because of the baby's position. So it wouldn't have mattered coming in at 20 weeks, I would have had to come in again anyway, just because of the position. Baby measures on for dates, give or take a day or two. So we have to come back in a couple of weeks to look at the heart, but from what she could see, it looks good. All four chambers, and the aorta look good. She just couldn't get the picture she's supposed to get of it to be 100% sure there aren't any problems.


Oh and it's a boy! We are having a boy! A boy a boy a boy!! I didn't think I'd be this excited about a boy! But I am. I saw it right away, although I didn't quite know what it was. It just looked like a nub. I'm not used to seeing them look like that. But I called it before the tech did. I mean, she knew, but I said it before she did. Clear as a bell, a boy. And I've been right with both babe's. We've already got a name, although we aren't saying, in case we change our minds. But seeing how much this child moved in the womb, it fits.

Anyway. There you go, more blue for the list.

Congrats, Kathryn! That's exciting. I guess this baby had better be a girl with all those boys coming.

My sister has informed me that she's going away for the weekend so I have to keep my legs closed. I love my sis but I don't think I'm willing to go that far!

Congratulations on the boy! nice to have one of each!

Sorry I haven't posted much lately.... going through a trial at the moment that has been making me feel very drained t hat all I want to do at night is just sleep!
But I am believeing God for a miracle.

on the pregnant news.. I have told people at work. One of my managers didn't take it too well... but due to God's goodness... just a week before hand , we had a re-org and he was no longer to be my manager. my "New" manager was really nice and was very supportive. (the yucky manager told me that I was no longer his problem!!.. since when is being pregnant is a problem???!!)...... Most people that i tell can't believe that am due in 3 months!.. and me saying it like that to so many people made it REAL to me!... wow.. only 3 months...and I will have another child of my own! it scares me...will I be able to love the second child as much as I love the first one... ?? I know all will say yes I will.. but its a thought that keeps running through my head...

anyways... have a wonderful afternoon ladies and ..if anyone remembers.. I ask you to pray for me... God knows my heavy burden!

Just wanted to say a quick congratulations to Kathryn!

I'm sorry I don't have to energy for anything else - I don't think I've ever felt so tired. I need to go lie down and not think about what I'm not getting done.

Royal - Yes, it will be a surprise! We have our own ideas about what we think the baby is by our amatuer readings of the ultrasound pics we got but that's about it . The tech didn't tell or make any slip ups and that I'm thankful for! For whatever reason I think that the element of surprise might help me get through my home water birth that I'm hoping to have !

Congratulations on the boy, Kathryn. I'm sure Nadia will be excited to have a little brother.

Aw, Julie, I can't believe you're still here. (That sounds ruder than I mean it ) I hope things happen soon for you

Well, we called Grandparents yesterday and told them about the baby. I also got ahold of my sister and two of my brothers. Another brother wasn't answering the phone, but I think I might see him this weekend, so I'll tell him then. My youngest two brothers won't be told until I'm at least in the second trimester.

Also, I want the world to know that my husband turned in his last seminary paper today!!! We've been married for 7.5 years and he's been a full time student the whole time. Actually, he's been in school for 23 years (since kindergarten ) What's he going to do with himself now that he's done??? Get a full time job and support me, I hope
