Going by cycle dates... I'm guessing around October 12th - what a way to celebrate our anniversary (a week or so later)... with a new baby While I would love to have a girl this time (please God), I'm just looking forward to a full term pregnancy with no problems in the mean time. I'm cautiosuly excited because I've struggled to get beyond 8-9 weeks in the past (5 miscarriages) and I had several problems with Noah's pregnancy (had to be put on progestrone because of heavy spotting and then all the weight loss from being so sick). Tracy is excited too (far more so than I am - but then I don't think it has quite sunk in yet - well except when I don't feel that great). The boys... oh my! Christian's first question was is it going to be a boy or a girl? Andrew doesn't care whether it's a boy or a girl (he thinks I should have twins ) and Noah didn't get too excited until we were into Wal-Mart later that night and started running through the store with baby clothes we could buy "for the baby" (all girl stuff I might add). I haven't told Mom yet - I'm waiting to see the doctor tomorrow before I tell her - I want dates in mind to be able to tell her as well (liek the U/S date). She knows I wanted to have my tubal reversed a couple years back so maybe she won't be surprised (what am I kidding, yes she will). Jackie... I can bottle some of the water around here and send it your way.... January alone saw the birth of at least 40 new babies in our area and the trend is continuing into February with 4 ladies in labour yesterday alone (one of them from our church - she delivered baby number 3 - a boy) Want some of this water :lol: As for the van delivery... if the quack doctor is on call when I go into labour - I'll deliver the baby on the side of the road if I have to or travel to Fredericton (60 miles south of us)... he's a creep, poor bedside manner and concerned only about making a quick buck - not interested!
A baby wow!! Take care of yourself don't work to hard and have Tracy and the boys do all your housework for you. You are in a very tender stage. Put your feet up and relax. I heard of a lady that had her tubes tied and her husband was fixed also and she found out she was having twins.
Vicky, what cute pictures!!! Is there any particular reason you picked pink? Brenda, praying that things go much smoother for you this time. How much longer for you to be past that "critical period"?
No, not really I just thought they were cute. I do hope that Brenda takes care of herself, and that she will have a healthy baby. My dd was 2 months early she only weighed 1 lb and 14 oz and was 14 inches long. I didn't take very good care of myself. I missed a lot of my doctors visits, because I couldn't afford to take the time off from work. I was very young and thought I knew everything. So I just pray that she will take good care of herself and the baby. Now with my ds I was older and a little wiser. I ate right and exercised and got plenty of rest ( as much as you can get with a 2 year old running around). He was much healthier.
Brenda, you don't have any girls right? Maybe God will bless you with a very clam and easy going girl.
By my calculations, I would be somewhere around 4-5 weeks... until I get beyond the 9 week mark, I would consider it to be the critical phase. Jen... I have three boys - would ove to have a girl but I'm at that point where a healthy baby is all that matters to me... Jackie - it would be my luck that I would have another boy - BUT this is one is all God's doing SO who knows (only He does at this point). By the way Jackie... you never answered me... would you like some of the fertile water around here :lol:
Brenda, You know I told you my dh would love to move up there well if the water is that fertile then I will stay in SC. Forty one years old is to old to be having more babies.
Trish, I'm 41 too, this year and I can't imagine starting all over like that. At 35, I thought I was too old to be having Jeannie.
NO WAY!!!I'm not going ANYWHERE NEAR CANADA for a while until things up there settle down!!! That water's for YOUNGER gals than me!!! I was even avoiding Pennsylvania for a while; hopefully the problem with THEIR water will be taken care of by next summer! I was 41 with Phillip. Come on, Becky!!! You and Trish are still young!!!
My grandmother didnt stop having babies until she was 46, almost 47 till she gave birth. Her children were very spread out. My mom, two aunts, and my grandmother were all pregnant at the same time. Not sure if we're done or not. Yes, I would love to have more.
Oh come on Jackie according to Crystal you can still have more go for it. I don't think it work on my end, so you have the little one and I will spoil it. That water sometime is bad. They tell you to drink it for health reason. I don't know about that. What health reason? LOL
NOPE!!! Do your math. I was 41 when Phillip was born, and he's six. If I were to drink Brenda's water TONIGHT, I'd be 48. As Becky says, this old gray mare knows her limits. Now, God is capable of ANYTHING, but if He wants me to have another, HE is going to have to pull it off WITHOUT my cooperation. (And no, that is NOT meant as a challenge, LOL!) No more staying up all night trying to get a fussy baby to sleep for me!!! I had a difficult enough time at 41.
Jackie, :lol: You have gone crazy. :lol: That would make me 42 when the baby is born. No Way!!!!!!!! I am to OLD!!!!!!
Better 42 than 48! Hey, ladies, aren't we glad we're not Sarah? Can you imagine having a son in your nineties?
That would certainly be God if I have one in my 90's. Randall is 52 will 53 on the 12th of Feb. His dil tells him she push his wheel chair at Vicki's graduation. That graduation from high school. Just think about college. He will have to come in a stretcher.:lol: The might let us use an ambulance for that.:lol:
