Baby #2 EDD March 3

[AutumnBreeze]

Yeah! Can't wait to see some other mom's, and I'll be keeping my :fingersx: that this baby is :sticky

[luvmy3boyz]

Congratulations!
We're due 3/2/05
I'm hoping for maybe a couple days late, because not only would it be my birthday but it would also be 3/4/5

[AutumnBreeze]

Oh that would be neat! I never thought I'd be due near nice numbers like that. My 1st pregnancy started in October, but ended in a loss, and my second started in January, and he was born in September. Now, it's a whole different ball game!!!


Congratulations!

I'm cautiously entering...due March 1st but have had two previous miscarriages so i am keeping my fingers crossed!When i get my blood test results on Mondat then i will know more!

[Finnsma]

Hey Ladies! I'm also cautiously joining in here. We had our 4th m/c end of last month and decided a couple days too late not to try again for at least another year! LOL Turns out I was already pg when we decided that! lol :D I'm blissfully pukey already so we're hopeful this one's a keeper! :D I'm due March 8th.

:sticky:sticky:sticky:sticky:sticky:sticky:sticky everyone!

[AutumnBreeze]

Congrats! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for us all!! :sticky

Ive already had to resist the erg to buy maternity pants.

[Ravenmoon]

Hehe..i just bought some maternity pants from a mama here.I guess i'm jumping the gun but i feel like this one is a keeper!

[Ravenmoon]

Oh and my dh is ready to get a vasectomy now but i asked him to wait and do it while i am in my 6 weeks postpartem time.But what if i want another one ;)

[Finnsma]

LOL I was thinkin this mornin' while out watering the horses that all my mat clothes are for the summer! Gretchen was born in Oct in VA and round here it was only starting to cool off then and Koen was born down in FL in July! LOL I popped out incredibly early with Koen so I wonder if I won't have to dig out those summer mat clothes anyway! LOL

Oh what fun! I can't help but get giddy! But then I start to panic with every little twinge! lol But at least I'm feeling so crappy, sounds strange to say but it's such a relief to constantly feel like I'm gonna puke! I didn't feel that way with our last one that we lost.

Anyone else still nursing? I tandem nursed for over a year and a half with my first 2 and at the rate Koen is still going I wouldn't be at all suprised if we get to tandem with the new one. I hope so! It sure helped ease the transition for Gretchen!

[Finnsma]

Way to keep the faith Raven! :D Have you tried them on yet? ;)

Edited to add:

DH keeps threatening to get snipped too but I just can't imagine being done at only 25! That 6 week postpartum time would be perfect though!

[Ravenmoon]

My dh is 26!He is young but we have two kids together and he is step dad to my oldest and we have another on the way so he thinks we are so done!We shall see...

I haven't gotten the clothes yet.But i can't wait.My pants still fit but my belly is trying to get out of them!I just lost 75 lbs last year so i guess i should throw that out the window!At least i can tell myself not to eat everything in sight even though i am pregnant. :nono

See you ladies on the MArch 2005 thread.

[AutumnBreeze]

My dh wants the snip too. We have a 2 yr old son, and then we'll have this baby. He's TWENTY THREE!! I'm twenty one. I've know he's only wanted two kids, but I thought since we got started at 18 and 20 that maybe he'd let me change his mind to have two, soon, then two later............ah, well, I'll just have to keep praying for em!

[Devaskyla]

Very cautiously joining in here. Dh & I are both getting quite a few pregnancy symptoms, so hopefully this one will be a keeper. I'm due anywhere from Feb 26 (using unmodified Naegle's methos) to March 8 (using Woods method). I'm going with the 8th as my "official" due date. :)

I'm already outgrowing all by my one, extremely unsupportive, nursing bra. Unfortunately we don't have the money for clothes, so I guess I'll be wearing the drawstring sweat-pants I wore for most of my pregnancy with ds. A friend suggested using an Ace bandage as a bra, so I might try that since I have no other options. My breasts are already extremely tender and my awful bras aren't helping matter any.

Anyone else feeling exhausted all the time but having a lot of trouble sleeping? I'm finding myself staying up for hours after ds has gone to bed instead of going to sleep at the same time as him, which is proably really what I need. I just feel this need to be alone right now and I don't know where it's coming from. I felt this way with the last pregnancy that I lost, so I'm hoping it's not a sign of anything.

I don't think dh would ever consider getting snipped. Not that I want him to! :) He only wants 2 kids, but I'd really like to convince him to have more. I think if this one is a boy it will be easier to persuade him, since I know he'd really like a daughter.

Sorry for the novel!

[AutumnBreeze]

Deva, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for :sticky babies all around!! I hope to have a nice big group of March mama's!

You mentioned your nursing bra...I got a pretty good one with ds at walmart, nice cotton, right size, and soft, for under $9 the other more expensive one I bought was horrible!

And as for the sleep. YES! I'm so tired, and feel like I could sleep during nap time, but never do. Instead I just rest, watch a movie, sew or read. At night, as long as I'm not hungry, I'm ok to sleep once dh is asleep. I have been taking B-6, and it's making me HUNGRY!!! So I'm always eatting something. But the crackers by my bed, not quite enough flavor, but they serve their purpous first thingint he morning.

:) best wishes, and sticky dust!!

[Devaskyla]

Thanks, Amanda! Unfortunately, I don't even have $9 to spend on a bra (and since we're in Canada, it would probably be more). What kind is it, though? Hopefully we'll get some income coming in soon and I can maybe get something. Is it really supportive? I have 2 Bravada bras, one is really supportive but a bit too small, especially when nursing, and the other I feel like my breasts are down at my thighs and I can't adjust it any more.

[AutumnBreeze]

Deva, it was just a cheap bra, something that served it's purpous. I was only a 34 C when nursing, so I didn't feel the need for a bravada, nor do I really like them. But, I just picked it up at Walmart, because I liked the way it opend, and it was much softer fabric than the other one I'd bought. So in a way, it was the better way to go, and I'll be buying more Walmart nursing bras this time too. Just probably a D! lol

I wish I had it pulled out, my breasts are sore already, but I do remember it being supportive as my other bras, and it was comfy enough that I could wear it at night for the first few weeks.

Good luck

~*~*~*~*~* steady money vibes to ya~*~*~*~*~*~*~

(we just got lucky, dh had a 60 hr wk a few wks ago, we're still enjoying that bit of extra $$!)

[Devaskyla]

Thanks, again. :) The main reason I got Bravada is because I'm very large even when I'm not nursing and most bras don't seem to go that big. I have 2 nursing bras from Motherhood. They were the biggest ones they had in the store and they only fit well when I'm not pregnant and once I get past the 6monht/year mark of nursing. I saw some of a new brand on E-bay awhile ago that sounded good. The person who designed them took what she considered the best aspects of a number of the major brands of nursing bras and combined them. Don't know if she's still selling them, but if she is when we get some money, I might try one of those, too.
