Thank you Tanya! Fill me in, what seems to be harder this time? Baby or healing ....or both? I worry sometimes about how it will this time around being my baby is 9 years old! Still can't wait to see pics! I bet she's beautiful!
Hey Michelle, in a month our babies should already be here!! Can you believe it? I'm so excited!
How is everyone else, it seems some of us aren't posting anymore. I hope everyone lets us know when they deliver! I'm going to try to post at least every other day if not every day to keep us from getting buried.

Kelli - GREAT picture, and stop it! Your not brave..I love belly shots I just don't think mine ever look that great. I just look like a moose...ROTFL! You look pg and terrific!
Not to worry - I'll drive you nuts with pictures as soon as I locate my camera. I had it packed and I don't think I've done a bit of unpacking since I got home....call me lazy but I'm really feeling it this time...

Kelli, yes you are brave and I think that is cute. i really like that. I so wish I had something to show right now after having this TR and going through all these things, but like I said before I gave up and if it happens it happens, I just don;t want any more E/P or M/C. Michelle, are you brave enough to show us your belly shot with all that baby inside? Sure would love to see it.

Lori, I also think it sounds a little scary to deliver at 37 weeks but thats what my dr is doing also because of the extra fluid and cord resistance problem. I am going to ask for an amnio to be sure he's ready but if the risks of him being inside outweigh the risks of getting him out, I'll let them deliver me then. I had all my kids early anyway, naturally.
Michelle, YIKES! He'll be ten lbs by June 10th! LOL, you'll have maybe 17-18 lbs of baby inside of you!! I know your scared but your dr is taking good care of you, trust them.
Tanya and Athena, awwwwwww!! We want pictures!
Oh and yes, I can't sleep at all!! They gave me a script for ambien and even taking that, I only get maybe 3-4 hours sleep but it does help!
Like Michelle said, we are all almost done! We can do this!!

Wow!! Michelle 12 lbs of baby?? I would be a nightmare to live with. Hang in there.
Thank you to everyone who answered my question. I think it may be a good idea to wait until 38 weeks. Part of me thought says 37 weeks. I don't sleep at all at night. Anyone else having trouble?

Congratulations Tanya.. we cant wait to see pics of Carly.. I hope you are getting some rest and healing.. so happy for you.
Lori, my opinion on te amnio is to go with your gut feeling and your drs advice. They have scheduled an amnio for Jake to check his lungs.. your dr wont do anything to put you or your baby at risk.
We are doing ok here... had a big drs appointment yesterday.. jake is measuring 7 lbs already.. annabelle is 4.6 pounds.. so the dr is worried about him growing that much. I am 33 weeks today. she's upped my appointments to 3 times weekly for monitoring, u/s and NST... then June 9 she will do an amnio on Jake only to see if his lungs are developed, if so, they will be delivered via c-section June 10.... wow!
So with almost 12 pounds of baby in me, it is no wonder I am so miserable walking around. The bedroom and bathroom in the basement are complete... this weekend we have to paint, put the fixtures and flooring in, and get my youn gest moved.. It will be a long weekend!

Tanya CONGRATULATIONS!!! Can't wait to see your new pictures of Carly!!! I can't wait to hold ours!!! Seeing the babies come aboard here is making me even more anxious!!
Lori4, why do you have to have the amnio done?? What is the doctor looking for when they do the amnio?? I had my son (planned repeat c-section) at 38 weeks and my doctor NEVER said/did amnio as a necessity to have baby early..??? As anxious as we are all getting I'm sure, I know I am, I would wait until at least 38 weeks. That's my plan anyways. Lots of BDing, walking, and I may even resort to the "castor" oil remedy... maybe... but I'm waiting until I'm in my 38th week. Are you having complications where the amnio is necessary??
Athena where are some pictures of your handsome little guy???
