Hey Ladies!!
finnegansmom- Your numbers from last week sound awesome!! I dont think 37.x is super high for progesterone. Mine was 38.x at 13DPO and hCG was in the 300's as well. Mind you, a week later, progesterone was low at 8.something (that's when I started to supplement!!) but hCG was still rising at a good clip! What were your digits like this weekend?! can't wait for the update.
Mae- one day till DF! and what- 6 till wedding?! awesome.
Lisko15- still looking out for your operation stalk the mucus plug! how excited can we get about something with such a disgusting name? Hoping for you- and yes- get that bag packed! I'm already starting to think about what we should have in ours... and YAY for decorating!! one of my favorite pass-times.
QBear'sMama- ugh. I can understand being nervous, but I think everyone here is right. your little one is just squirming away. our first MW appt they took like 15 min to find it. I think generally they might have just given up and sid next time, but I almost started to hyperventilate and cry, so they kept trying. cornered this little bugger down by the pubic bone by pushing on the uterus from the top.... not comfortable, but hearing the

was worth the discomfort.

I KNOW you'll hear it at the 14w visit. so glad your DD is so taken with this little one! that's a good sign of what's to come, it could have gone the other way.

oh, and I changed your DD for you
jillc, thanks so much for popping in- and I can't believe A is a month old already!!!! WOW time is just passing so quickly. I hope you're feeling great now, and adjusting to life with 3! how are the older DCs doing with him?
YYYM- hope you got out of the house not smelling like a barn, or the animals in it. fetoscope- I want to ask them to use that next time. last night i checked in with the doppler just for fun, but I could tell she didnt like it.
Love that you are getting boy feelings, and can't WAIT to see if you're right!!
AFM, had our baby shower this weekend!!! it was 89 deg, sunny and humid- aka, sweatbox. but, BEAUTIFUL!! my parents had it at their house, and went ALL OUT- they did so much work before hand, their gardens and inside the house looked incredible. (1920s houses require lots of work!) they must have been working on it for months. well, I know they were after talking with my mom. it was just lovely. we got totally spoiled. Got all of the "big" things that we need and want, and TONS of clothes. she better really be a girl, or our little boy will be wearing lots of pink. DH stayed the whole time, which he was initially against, but I think he secretly liked having all this attention lavished on him. "Oh, Mr. LZP you are working so hard! Oooh, carrying all this stuff out to the car, what a good husband and father you are...! Oooh, look how cute you look holding your little neice and nephew!" ha! it was really nice to have him there, and he had a good time. so cute.

we didnt get ANY cloth diapering stuff that was on our registry, I guess people are just too freaked out by it. Now I have license to get what we still need, and be finished. nothing better to me than checking things off of a list.

oh, and did I mention the desserts? I think I'm still coming down from my sugar high. key lime pie, 2 kinds of chocolate cake, cheesecake, fruit, and on and on... YUM.
OK, getting back to work now.
Hope you ladies had a great weekend
