PG Coming This Winter - December Thread!

[EbonyPrncess1]

Okay ladies,


We are finally narrowing down some names and I soooo need your opinion. I love Jaclyn for one of the babies. But which do you think is nicer Julia or Juliet? My husband and I are torn.

Still plugging away middle names. I promise....I will have names picked out before the 1st baby's head starts to crown. Haha

about2bmom3-Hi!!! Glad you got the nursery done. Thats terrific!
I had my twins at 37 weeks. I felt so done as well. I mean I was measuring 54 cm. With this pregnancy I feel tiny (lol, yet I knoe I'm not tiny but...) still am way smaller.

Elisia-Hi there! So only 5 more weeks for you eh? How are you feeling?

Lcnj-Wow! Today is the day to be induced eh? Good luck!!!! I will be thinking of you my dear...

Mamavee-Hello! How are you doing?

Jeppy-Your birth story sounds like it went relatively great! Congrats!

EP-That's too funny~! We are naming this baby girl Julia!
My breasts started leaking a bit before I was had my twins too. It can be colostrum or just your nipples gearing up for lactating! But some women do lactate early.

jojo-How are you?

Angel-I am having my Group B swab tomorrow. I don't know if they will check my cervix though since I'm having a scheduled c-section. Hmmmm...
I know they do the Group B test just for safety reasons in case I go into labour early and happen to deliver this baby vaginally.

Its just so exciting how close we all are!


Jess - What a great story! And Logan is absolutely beautiful! Please do tell us any issues you are having, eithe BF or issues 'down there', etc. Remember, there's no such thing as TMI in here! LOL It does sound like things went pretty well, so thats a great sign of encouragement for the rest of us!

Ebony - I LOVE Julia. I am forbidden to use it though, my sister laid claim to that name whenever she has a girl. LOL Juliette is really pretty too, you could always wait until you see her, and then you might be able to make a decision then. My vote is for Julia though!

Elisia - Next week is my Group B test and first cervix check - what about you? they said after that I will be going weekly! I'm getting reallyt excited! And I feel like i've suddenly gotten rounder this week!

About2bmom3 - time is just tick tick ticking by for you! before you know it, you'll be posting about your L&D story!

Mommyx2 - they may check you anyways, just to see where you are at so they can be prepared. I mean, they're gonna be down there anyways.. LOL

[elisiasolomon]

About2bmom3- I'm SO jealous you have your nursery done!! You should post some pics! We haven't seen many nursery pics..... just Mama Vee's fabulous one.

Jess - How you doing hun? You still having lots of bleeding? I hear the bleeding goes on for WEEKS! And is it true they like you to douche until there's no more blood? That just sounds like a blast!! Ha ha. (See Angel's right...there's no such thing as TMI here). So, when are you going to send out your announcements? Do most people wait until baby is 2 weeks old for the cute pic or am I thinking about professional pics?

EP - I think I'm leaning towards Julia too, but both are very cute! And I love Jaclyn.

LCNJ - We're thinking about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please keep us posted!!!!!!

Jojo - Boy you really have been busy lately!!

Mommyx2 - Still having this terrible pelvic pain, but I'll survive. I actually got talked into working tomorrow. I guess they really need me. So much for maternity leave........ it's just never gonna happen! ha ha. Anyway, thanks for asking. Sounds like you are feeling good! That's wonderful!

Angel - They tested me for Group B at my 34 week appt. and did a cervical check. I was totally closed and long at the time. Don't know the results of the Group B but my next appt. is on Monday (36 weeks) so I'll find out then. And then he wants to see me weekly after that too. I can't believe how close we are getting!?!?! This is crazy!! BTW, is your nursery done? Am I the only one lagging?!?

[about2bmom3]

So, I am becoming a frequent flyer over there! Last night I started having ALOT of BH!! They were super uncomfortable and seemed like they were coming 7 or 8 an hour. At 7am I finally called and OB told me to head on over. I am not dialated AT ALL! They got me on the monitor and i was contracting every 3 minutes, but they werent "productive" more like "false labor" so they gave me terbutaline shots. I had to get three, but the ctx finally stopped. OB sent me home I am 35 weeks tomorrow and he wants me to hold these guys in as long as i can. We did set the official c sec though! Thurs Dec 18 at 8am TWO WEEKS!!!!!! I am just getting annoyed at this point I want the babies to be as healthy as possible and come home with me, so I want them in there too, but I am so uncomfortable and cranky Well, anyway, I thought i would give everybody a quick update....OB cancelled my appt for tom so next time (hopefully) I go in will be tues for growth scan and NST. Hope everybody had a better day!

mommyx2-how did your twins do at 37weeks?

LCNJ-thinking a lot about you today!

jess-hows our boy?

EP- LOVE juila!!!!

just about done. a few small things, mostly for me, but its ready for a baby!

[jojo329]

Hey everyone! It's been an insane busy couple of weeks. I've missed you! I just don't have the time to go back and read the end of the November posts, but I read all these on here.
Jess - CONGRATULATIONS! I bet you're exhausted but so happy That pitocin stinks doesn't it?
LCNJ- Since we haven't heard from you, I'm guessing you had your baby yesterday! Can't wait to hear ALL about it!
Angel- Must be great to have your sis there for so long! It sounded like she was a huge help, so that's really good. My sis would NOT be a big help at all, but I love her anyway
elisia- Wait until you get to 3 more weeks! I have 24 days left and I'm totally freaked out!
about2bmom - That's awesome that you got the nursery done! I bet that's a huge relief. Sounds like the babies are still able to move in there - which is suprising at this point! Sorry about your trip to L&D. I'm sure it's frustrating to keep going and getting sent home!
EP- You better get those names girl! I like both Julia and Juliet, but I would say Juliet and Jaclyn go well together. I was just thinking, though... If for some reason they were wrong and this is a boy, we would have NO idea on a first name. Middle name would be my Dad's name.
mommy - Hope your test goes well today. Getting closer
MamaVee - TWENTY FOUR DAYS!!! Can you believe it?

AFM- No idea where to start. We had a great trip to TN for Thanksgiving. I got ALL my Christmas shopping done and wrapped while we were there. So, there's a big pile of presents on the couch waiting for the Christmas tree! I know that sounds nuts, but it was the only thing I could do while I was down there. Poor DH, he's humoring me in my neverending quest to get stuff done! Last night, he put up curtains in the nursery at 9pm just so I could cross SOMETHING off my list
I have a piece of paper that will stay with me until everything is crossed off. There's a "To get", a "To do", and the master schedule of the next 3 weeks. There are only 7 days that don't have something on the calendar (and five of those are in the next week). We still have church and work and all our normal activities on those 7 days, though. Some of the other days have 2-4 things on the calendar! This Saturday, I have rehearsal in the morning with the kids, put up Christmas lights on the house in the afternoon, and we have 2 Christmas parties to attend that night! My "to get" list has narrowed significantly. Just need to get the video camera, extra memory for the computer (which DH is doing today or tomorrow), and let DS pick a name from a tree and buy a gift (we will do that next Thurs). The "to do" list includes cleaning the storage room and filling it back up with decorations and other various things, find the baby mobile, put the playpen in our room, pack the hospital bag, and CLEAN the house (which will be the biggest undertaking)!!!!
She is REALLY moving around in there. Sometimes I wonder if she's already 10 pounds!!! I had my phone appointment with an L&D nurse on Tuesday. She was really nice, and she is working the whole weekend when I'm going in! The nurse I had for L&D 5 years ago with DS also still works there! She actually came in to check heartbeat once while I was in for my knee surgery. Anyway, I really better get back to work. Have a great day everyone!

About2bmom3 - 2 more weeks!!!!!!! Hang in there hun!!!!!!!!!

Angel - Thanks for posting pics of your nursery!! I'm sooo jealous you are done!! It's adorable!! Where on earth did you get a Steelers mobile?!? So cute!!

Jojo- Welcome back!! You are hilarious!! You sound exactly like me!! I am in FULL ON nesting mode and want everything done YESTERDAY. I started putting a filing cabinet together for our new office last night and wouldn't stop until it was finished. Well, it took me a little longer than I thought! 3 hours later, I realized it was 10pm!!! Ha ha. I don't know how you girls continue to work full-time. I would be so stressed out to get things done, but then again, you girls are WAY ahead of me in that department.

[mommyX2]

EP-If you pick Julia, you'll have to tell me what her middle name is...lol. I am going with Julia Mary. I'm using a family name. I love it!

jojo-Hi! That's great you got all of your xmas shopping done!

Angel-Beautiful nursery! Isabella will love it!

about2bmom3-My twins were just fine being born at 37 weeks. They had no nicu time, and went home with me after we were there for 3 days. They weighed 5.7lbs and 7lbs.

Elisia-Work really wants you eh? Well you must be terrific at your job! They will really miss you by the sounds of it!

AFM-off to my OB appt for the Group B test.
Talk to you all soon!

[about2bmom3]

Hi ladies!

mommyx2-thanks for the info! i am hoping my guys do as well as yours did! hope your appt went well!

angel-hope you are starting to feel better (i posted on other thread)

jojo-your life makes me tired! i dont know how you do it!

elisia-i feel your nesting! now i wish i could move around to do what i need to!

hey to everybody else! LCNJ-hope all is well!!!!


AFM- no more ctx, so thats good. I am just huge and cranky. I wish that i could do more, but i know if i push myself the ctx will come back, so i am following orders and taking it easy hoping to finish up DD's xmas shopping and wrapping this weekend! I dont know about everyone else but i was NOT ready for winter! It's 16 degrees here, and ICY! Yesterday when i was in L&D the nurse told me that there were a total of three women up there (including me) and NO ONE was in labor...the other two fell on ice!!! YIKES!!!!! So if you have ice where you are...be CAREFUL!
