XP from pregnancy: Afternoon all! R had a weight check up yesterday and he's up 1 pound 3 ounces from last week! I'm still nursing but due to supply issues I'm supplementing with formula. This kid eats constantly. We've had a few rough nights but it's to be expected with more to come. For the most part he's a pretty mellow baby. Big brother adores him and showers him with kisses. Yay future illnesses lol.
I'm in a newborn fog and have been reading these threads but not posting. So, I guess I should share I have an outside baby!
A.li.ce R.os.e was born on 8/17 via c-section. She just turned a month on Saturday. She is a really happy baby, I never thought I could love someone so much. Here's a newborn pic and her one month pic:
caer I think I missed this update in the BMBs - congrats on the great panorama results and for team blue!
housecarder OMG can you get any more badass? For real.
penguin129 Sorry for the worry - they should be monitoring you more often I would think? Hope it resolves all by itself! So cool you'll be featured because of your EDD Halloween baby would be fun! MY EDD is 4/1/17 so no one will believe me haha
danib my son is convinced he's having a sister as well. Has been since day 1. I'm starting to worry how he'll react if he's actually having a brother! 😳
I know! I'll be thrilled with either a girl or a boy, but for DS's sake I'm hoping it's a girl.
danib, britta: my son only wanted a sister. Not a brother. He was convinced I was having a girl.
When he was introduced to his brother he didn't have a second of sadness. And if you ask him now he'll say he always wanted a brother.
Thanks for that. I've had that thought too. Knowing my kid, he'll probably be like, "Oh cool. A baby. Anyway, watch what I can do/see what I made/I'm hungry/can I go outside?" He probably doesn't care THAT much at all.

mosdub I think the limit for "normal" amniotic fluid is 25 and I'm at 25.5 down from a 27 two weeks prior. My midwife wasn't even going to give it a second thought I until I asked her about it and she went and consulted with the doctor. I'm glad I can view results in MyChart because the midwife never brought it up to me.

Hi GKU! I'm 18 weeks tomorrow. I can hardly believe it! Time has started moving faster for this stage of pregnancy. I'm feeling pretty good physically and I'm starting to tackle baby-related to-dos: make shopping lists, find daycare centers to tour, and even start working on the nursery. It's like suddenly, things got real!
I'm constantly lurking and rooting for all of you,
billyhorrible You don't get to comment here without giving us an update on you and your LO. >:C
/gavel /post police
Baby Horrible is 15 months and spends 90% of his time trying to kill himself. He climbs up the play structure in the backyard and swings from the beams, literally. He's trying to tumble, but can't get his legs over his head so pushes his head along the floor. He hates sleeping and loves fruit. I am equal parts overjoyed and sad that he is our last child.

Hey guys! Owen is 3 weeks old! He's doing great now after having some jaundice issues and having to come home with a bili blanket. Right now we're working on some gas issues so I'm cutting out dairy to see if it helps. Here's a pic of him on the day he was born and one from last night.
Thanks for the tag dashook! While this is my favourite thread of the week I mostly LT my way through the updates and have only posted once here myself so hope it's ok to jump in now...
I'm 25w tomorrow with our second boy! Now that first tri nausea is a distant memory I'm feeling pretty good and LO seems to be doing great too. We have done little or no prep for his arrival, but kept everything from DS and are in the midst of a remodel so hopefully everything comes together over the next couple of months. DS1 asks on a daily basis if his little brother is ready to be opened yet and is very excited. I can't wait for them to mret!
I love seeing all of the bumps, babies and new BFPs. FX for more.
I haven't posted here since Sam was first born, time flies when you're having fun/trying to entertain a baby! Sam is now two months old as of yesterday, and I cannot believe it. He's getting SO big, he's basically a teenager now. He's such a strong little guy, and so completely out of his mind, his pediatrician told us yesterday that we will most likely have an early walker on our hands Slow down child! Here he is repping his future college. Just kidding, he's never going to be allowed to leave home.
I hope all is well with everyone, I'm so excited to see all of the BFPs that have happened the past few weeks!

Hello! I love how busy it's been this week-so happy to see the BFPs!!!
BabyGO is 10 1/2 weeks already. He had his shots last week and it was harder on his Dad than anyone else(he had to hold him) He's starting to think about teething and crawling. Too soon. He can roll over and when he's on his stomach and facing one direction, he'll shimmy and kick and scoot until he's facing the opposite direction, like go clockwise from head pointed north to feet pointed north. It's really too much that he's getting more and more mobile. He's been on Zantac for acid reflux for a week and it seems to be helping but he's still really fussy. I love him to pieces though.
*Poof*
I'm rooting for everybody in GKU! The June17 board is up! More BFPs!!

ALL the babies are cuties. I was going to tag and comment on how adorable they are but I realised I'd say the same thing to everybody. So.freaking.cute.

@led I'm so sorry for the scare! I'm so glad she's ok, i can't imagine how terrifying that was for you powerofbacon that smile!!! Kills me a little bit!!
penguin129 I had extra water too, considered mild polyhyramios as well. I asked my doctor about it and he said it was nothing to worry about, that he would wear his rain boots when I went into labour. It was really ok for ours. I mean, there was a lot of leaking.....lots and lots.
As for us Ryan is 7 months. He loves to walk on his walker, is working on crawling but prefers to just sit and scream to be carried. He says dadadadada and loves eating remotes!

Thank you for the info kellybenelly83. I'm not that worried about it. The only reason why I have some worry is beacuase when I googled it the complications listed were complications I had when everything was fine with DD1's birth. Mainly the post partum hemorrhaging. It helps to know others have had the same thing and been fine.
Baby K is 9 days old today. We made it through her first week with a few hiccups, but mostly Ok. She lost 9% if her birth weight, so there were some concerns there, but we're supplementing with formula while my supply increases and she's already halfway back to her birth weight. Lots of frustration and feels about it all, but ultimately she's doing better and that's all that matters.
Tapatalk is being uncooperative, so I'll have to add a picture later.
I didn't even notice the cat lol I had to go back and check haha
So tolerant. So very tolerant. Many treats.
Pretty sure my dogs think the baby is some horrible practical joke. I'm sure they will change their mind once we start solids and food comes raining from the sky.

Morning! I hit viability today and feel like some of my unwarranted anxiety has been lifted a little. Things are going well, though. Have to do my GTT this Saturday so I hope I didn't lose my paperwork.....

Hi ladies! I wanted to wait until after yesterday's appointment to update. Luckily, both babies are looking great! They are over 3 lbs each and in 50th and 57th percentile for height/weight. Like whoa. My belly continues to grow and my husband likes to call it the "torpedo" now. Thanks guy. I had my first shower this past weekend and I am definitely getting into full-on nesting mode. Here's a pic from Monday - 29 weeks with B/G twins, sporting a torpedo belly.
danib my son is convinced he's having a sister as well. Has been since day 1. I'm starting to worry how he'll react if he's actually having a brother! 😳
My son actually cried when I told him that he was getting two sisters and yelled "No two brothers!" But that lasted less than a day especially since he thinks Seraphina's NN is so awesome "her name is Finn because she's a shark!"
Eta: We weren't team green, neither kid had anything but love for the girls from day one once they were born. Same goes for my niece who desperately wanted to name her sister Margaret and mom named her Lydia instead. Kids are fickle lol.
Pretty sure my dogs think the baby is some horrible practical joke. I'm sure they will change their mind once we start solids and food comes raining from the sky.
My lab is going to think my little guy is the best thing ever once he starts throwing snacks!
@led - wow! Little Ridley is so lucky to have you for her mama! I don't know if I could have kept my shit together like you did in that moment. You are a rock star - so glad that you are both ok!!
