late september:)

First baby

Due in Late September- the Estimated is 9/28/02- although the ultrasound 2 weeks ago said maybe a week early
not complaining would love a Virgo just like me

i wanted a homebirth- but i live in NJ, and it was too expensive to do -
so im taking advantage of great public health care with no docs, all midwives and nurses
Ill be in my hospital birth pavillion with my hubby, mom, and best friend


and i think its a boy

yay!!!!!!!!!!!

[Phishgal]

Me too!

My due date is 9/21!

I am a bit nervous as this pregnancy was not planned and my dd will only be 15 months old when my due date rolls around. Also, I live in WI and do not have any friends or family around so it really stinks.

Thank goodness for all of you! Your posts help keep me sane!

I'm expecting #2 on August 22!

We're not finding out if the baby is a boy or a girl, and we've been having fun speculating.

due in december

Hi!
This is my third pregnancy, my first ended in miscarriage and my second ended in a happy healthy bouncing baby boy who is 13 months old. I am feeling okay, nausea and tired, achy pelvis. Congratulations to you all....wishing you all a happy healthy pregnancy.

I am pregnant

Hello!
Congratulations to all of you! I am pregnant too. Three and a half months along and due October 28th.

I have a DD who will be three on 6/10, this will be baby #2. We plan a natural birth in a hospital with a nurse midwife, just like last time, except I'd love to skip the petocine this time.

I hope all the mama's who get to carry their babies through the hot summer months find cool breezes and lots of time in the shade.

Peace.

Hi there

I'm expecting my #4 for New Years Eve. I'm excited. I will be doing it at the hospital because I tend to lose ALOT of blood and require help there. I can't quite figure it out other than it only takes about 6 contractions and a babe is born, so it's traumatizing to my system.

I'd love a home birth, but am too scared and the cost is daunting, so I figure, let's do it where i"m comfortable, and my OB is wonderful.she had me laughing all the way through my last delivery.

Just got that elusive "second line" on the pregnancy test this morning-- Mother's Day!! :-) This will be my second baby; my first is a girl, born 9/18/00. She's nursing (lots), so not sure whether I'll be tandem nursing. Really hoping she'll decide for herself to cut back before the new baby comes. I love nursing her, and haven't wanted to force weaning, but I'm a bit overwhelmed at how much in-demand I'd be nursing two at once.

I guess I'm due the middle of January-- maybe 1/19/03. It hasn't quite sunk in yet, but I'm thrilled nonetheless.

I had a hospital birth with a CNM last time, and am hoping for a home water birth this time.


Best wishes for all of you and your babies,
Wendy

Hi, I'm Anne and I'm pregnant with no. 2 due around January 17th.

I had a baby boy, Josiah Patrick, 18 mo ago in a natural hospital birth with a family physician that practices a midwifery model of care and a wonderful doula.

Due in January 2003!

We just found out we are expecting #2 around January 19, 2003!

We have one daughter, Lakin Leigh, born on July 16, 2001.

We are planning an unassisted HBAC with prenatal care by a midwife.

I am 7weeks 1day today, and my due date is 12/31 (my inlaws anniversary! This is my second, so it could come early, and my mom's b-day is X-Mas eve, so who knows! We are currently looking for a midwife in our area and may do a homebirth if possible. If not, maybe hospitol w/midwife or a great birthing center that does waterbirths! Gotta keep searching and checking my options!

Due in Aug 2002

Hi,
My name is Robin and I am due August 14 with #4. It's a little boy. I am 27 weeks now, and getting kinda anxious. Also I have gestational diabetes I control it by diet. I wasn't too shocked with this diagnosis, both of my parents are diabetic. Also had it with my 2 prior pregnancies.

Just wanted to say HI!

Peace
Robin

Hi there

I'm due on July 28th, with our second baby. We do not know the sex and have no intentions of finding out, and we are far from settled on names


I'm having a water birth with midwives that work in a hospital setting. There are 5 of them that rotate. I had them when I gave birth to Logan and just loved them!

[greensmile]

I'm due Oct. 14th with #5. Had my four sons at home, so of course this one will be too! It makes me sad to see all the ladies who want homebirth and can't afford it. We need to agitate! Had my 1st at 20, now I feel almost too old for this baby stuff (32 now!) Everything is going well, now I'm not sick anymore (first time with awful nasea). Happy gestating!

[rpeacefuld]

Nausea

I had the terrible nausea for the first 4 months. I am 37, this pregnancy is my toughest. Homebirth isn't an option for me either. We have NO midwives here. I plan on on staying home until the hospital trip is absolutely necessary. At least my OB is female, and quite open minded. Will your other children be present for the childbirth? Mine have told me they don't want to be in the room with us. When I asked why, they said they didn't want to see me in pain. So, I guess they will be waiting just outside the door.

I'm due in mid-December. This will be baby#3. I'm planning an unassisted homebirth. Midwifery care is paid for, in this province, but there are no midwives in my health region. I don't trust the only doctor. We'll see how it goes.

[LisaAZ]

I am expecting #3 Dec.1. We are planning a home/
water birth.

I am pg with #1 due in late December. Have been off the pill and waiting for this moment for 2 years. All I can say to those who might be having trouble is, it happens when you least expect it!! Congrats to all you pregnant ladies!

Edited to add that we are using a midwife in a birthing center attached to a hospital. As natural as we can possibly be.

[homebirthmama]

Surprise!!!!!!!!!

We just found out we are due in late January with number 2! Our ds #1 will have just turned two. Wow we are excited and nervous!
