I'm exhausted by the time I'm home from work- so I rarely get on. I am so excited for our little girl   Carter is getting excited as well! Trying to love on him as much as possible until my time has to be split.

Hey ladies! It's been a while. I'm 31w 3d and time is moving fast! I have a dr appointment today and then my 3D/4D u/s on Friday. I'm so excited to see her again and see how much she has grown  Sleeping is pretty uncomfortable and when walking too much my feet swell up  Other than that, I'm doing good! How is everyone else feeling?

Me too. It seems I an getting fatigue again cuz it wasn't that bad til probably last week or so and I'm just beat. I know what you mean about the splitting time. I'm wondering how my daughter will take it once her brother is here. I am going to get her a present from him though to open at the hospital. I hear that helps alot for small children getting a sibling.

Yep I was told the same thing.. Carter will have a present as well- I'm hoping my doctor will induce me on the 22nd so that I won't be in the hospital on Christmas. It would break my heart being away from Carter.

Passed my glucose test and my anti body screening.... Anyone know what the antibody screening is?

Has that got a carrycot with it? The one I want is mama and papas sola but I have to buy the carseat separately. I'm not sure if you have it in America?

Not sure if that link will work as I'm doing it on my phone.

Do you have yours already or are you getting it delivered nearer the time?
The one I want you have to pay an extra £100 for the carrycot so I'm not sure whether to bother as the stroller itself can lay flat and they say that's ok from birth.

What will you do about a stroller for your boy? I decided against a double and an hoping he will be ok with just a buggy board.
On long journeys out I will take his stroller too.

It's to check if the baby & your blood is compatible. Say if you are RH-positive & the baby is RH-Negative, that isn't good. Usually they give you a shot to help the baby out. You blood cells attack the baby because they think its harmful.

We got our stroller travel set a few months ago for a great deal, and I love it! Can't wait to take it out of the box and get it all ready!!

I know what you mean. I won't be getting induced and I am hoping he comes like a week before he's due. I am very fearful of being away from Brooklyn on Christmas. It's only her 2nd one! I will probably cry. I am telling him to come between the 15th and the 18th. It's not too early lol. I know they come when they come but I talked to my daughter and told her she needed to come on the 11th (she was due Feb 14th) and she was born on the 11th lol. Let's see if I can talk to Carter and see if he is as good a listener as his sister hahaha.

I feel the same way! I don't want to limit what I eat but I'm making a SMALL effort. I still eat snacks during the day and after dinner. But instead of grabbing a candy bar from my prize basket at school when I get the urge for something sweet after lunch I've been packing a yogurt or strawberry applesauce to get the craving curbed. I've gained 22 lbs so far. Not bad at all but I was already past where I wanted my weight when I got pregnant so the less I gain, the better.

I'm also giving my son a big brother bag full of new stuff. When people come in to see the baby I need him to be happy with not getting all the attention! I know he is going to love love his new sibling but it's been ALL about him for the last 5 years!

Oh see I know all about the RH negative deal- Carter and me were the opposites. He just said your antibody screening went well and didn't explain what it had todo with.

Being home for Christmas with the newb would be so sweet. <3 Hopefully she comes on her own a few days early.  

*And same for the others due around Christmas. I'm hoping my son comes sometime during the week of his due date.

I agree! My daughter will be just a couple months shy of being 2. She's at the stage where jealousy is almost for sure going to happen. She made that clear on Saturday when she had her head on my belly and he kicked and made her head jump and she got all excited...BUT then I didn't choose my words well cuz I said "Aww your brother kicked you" and she laughed and kicked him back! Did not feel very good. I apparently need to choose my wording a little better....
