Pregnant - Nursing - July preggos!

Hey! Hope none of you mind that I'm starting a new thread!!

How was everyone's 4th? I bought fireworks and had a family cook-out--only two people from my family came, we're having a drama..... Sigh......

Anyway, the food was great and the fireworks were great. The only downfall of the evening was that Jake didn't enjoy the fireworks as much as I was hoping he would. He liked the colors allright, but the booming hurt his ears. I'll try again when he's a little older.

Everything is going well with the pregnancy. My morning sickness is almost totally gone--just a little twinge now and then.

Am I the only pregnant fat chick now?

I need to see some birth announcements and BABY PICTURES!!!!! :lol:

I'm here! I think I'm finally starting to put some of the weight i lost back on. And I've decided to try going a few days without my nightly dose of unisom to see if hte morning sickness is over with.

nope you are not alone I am definately a pregnant fat chick

Whew! I was beginning to worry!

It's so funny, when I got on my hotmail account this morning I had a BIRTH ANNOUNCMENT and BABY PICTURES from one of my friends!! Maybe she was reading my mind! :)

Unisom is definately back in. I was so sick yesterday I couldn't hardly function. Boo.

Hi Girls
I hope every one is doing great....I am so happy , I have 12 week to go.
Have every one decide on names?

My baby will be a surprise , is hard to wait until the big day.

Boy : Tristan Devine

girl: Mia Mickaela

Which are yours....

I'm also here, Ive been reading but have not posted...I'm 20 weeks and counting, diabetic too *sigh*. Meganbeth..just wanted you to know I too was sick, I'm trying out these cool new seaband things..you wear them on your wrist, so far so good!!

I'm also here, Ive been reading but have not posted...I'm 20 weeks and counting, diabetic too *sigh*. Meganbeth..just wanted you to know I too was sick, I'm trying out these cool new seaband things..you wear them on your wrist, so far so good!!

Yeah i tried those and they didn't help me much. SO glad they help you though!! The only thing that has done anything is taking unisom before bed every night.

Our names so far are:
Boys: Liam, Rhys, Zachary, Kyle
Girls: Emma, Zoey, Aeryn,

Spoke too soon, Not so much with the wrist bands..I think i will try the Unisom so it helps with morning sickness? Because I cant sleep ether..

Hi, new to posting on this forum, but not to 3fc. I am Donna, 30 yo and pregnant with my first. We are having a boy and will be naming him Tobias William, but we call him Toby. I am on hospital bedrest, and will be here for the duration of my pregnancy, which I am hoping will go full term. I have incompetent cervix and had a cerclage placed at 14 weeks, and at 23w6d, my cervix had funneled past the stitch of my cerclage! Since I have been on hospital bedrest, almost all funneling is gone and my cervical length has almost doubled, so it must be working, lol.
I hope to get to know ya'll better!!

Tiff-My morning sickness was so bad that I ended up in the hospital on Iv's, and my saving grace was Zofran, maybe something to ask your OB for.

How has everyone's weight gain been?

Hugs,
Donna

I'd clear it with your OB or MW first but mine told me to take 1/2 of a unisom (NOT the fast melts, whatever the active ingredient is in those isn't what you want). If that didn't work she was going to put me on a B6 suppliment as well which is what a lot of my preggo friends have been taking 1/2 unisom at bed and b6 suppliments during the day.

The only thing that kept me out of the hospital is the fact that I drink A LOT of water. Everytime I'd throw up I'd force myself to drink 2-3 glasses of water, a bit obsessive maybe? I don't want to go to the hospital lol.

As for weight gain I was down a total of 12 lbs but I've gained 2 or 3 back now.

Danna, are you at home or in the hospital? Hope all is going well:hug:
I'll talk to my doctor on Monday. I really thought I was past this part:?:

Megan: I also ask about the unisom, thanks again.

Like now, I'm up because there is a thunderstorm and I'm feeling like crap, not to mention I'll be chasing after 2 kids in a couple of hours. I'm praying for November to get here quickly! :tantrum:

Tiff-I am in the hospital on bedrest. It is so boring and I hate being away from DH, but its whats best for my little guy. When they put me in here, they gave me the steroid shots for his lungs, so we know he has a better chance if he comes early.
Hope you get some relief from your m/s.

Hugs,
Donna

Oh Danna, that has to be hard (I cant say what I want to say about it lol)..so what the heck do you do all day? How long have you been in there? The steroid is sure to help, and all of this will be so worth it in the end!

The good news is you don't have to cook, I'm saying this cause i just burnt the heck out of dinner!

Tiff-I really just hang out in bed, I am allowed to sit in the recliner, but never do, I surf the web, and nap alot, lol. It sucks, but will so be worth it in the end.

Hugs,
Donna

Big hugs to you Donna! I was on complete bed rest (at home) for the last 7 weeks of my pregnancy... it was rough. I watched a lot of TV series on DVD (no commercials that way) and read a lot. You'll get through it, and you're right... it's completely worth it in the end! I'd do it a million times over to have my little guy healthy, no question at all.

Hi Gale, good to see you!:hug:

Donna, you know whats strange? When they are born you will wish for these days back, I know its hard to believe now:yikes:... I had a c-section with both my kids, and I could not wait to leave the hospital, I did not want to use all 3 recovery days..I was like "Get me outa here, I want to go home!":tantrum: After 2 weeks of waking up at 3am, I was begging to go back! Now with 2 of them (even though they are 6 years apart) all they do is fight. Yesterday they fought over a sock (yeah, you read right, a sock):boxing:. The 2 year old (girl) usually starts it the 8 year old (boy) usually ends it (lol). Anyways this time I will be taking ALL of my 3 days and letting my Husband do the work. I am a stay at home mom, so you can imagine how much im appreciated around here:dz:...Man, I can't wait see how they deal with out me!:lol:

Tiff-Lol on the fighting about the sock!! I will stay at home with the baby too, and will go back to running my in home daycare in January. I just want to get thru the first few months with him and the holidays before I add more to the mix.

Hugs,
Donna

Hehe... I don't wish for my bed rest days back, but I do wonder why I didn't sleep more when I had the chance!!

I know, guys, I was so eager to be a Mom, no make that SUPER MOM..I was going to conquer the world! Now I use their nap times to cry :dz:(lol)...

Donna you rock for doing Day Care! I'm a teacher; I taught high school, 10-12 grade history ok, so when I said I wanted to stay home, I thought i was getting a BRAKE...What the @#!$ was I thinking:dz:?
Today I let the 2 year old have yogurt with her own bowl and spoon..She's two, so its time right? I swear she looked at me like "Ahh you foolish women, you might as well have dumped this on the floor yourself and save us both the time and trouble"..And sure enough off the tray it went and power splashed into the dishwasher full of CLEAN dishes:fr:...Yeah...about me not selling her little butt on the black market:bomb:...

I used to teach preschool and I was so excited when we decided I would be a SAHM. Now I look back some days and ask myself what the heck was I thinking!! 10-15 kids under the age of 4 alone is SO.MUCH.EASIER than one little 2 year old!

Tiif-I can almost picture you putting her on the porch with a sign that reads "free to a good home", like a puppy, lol!!

Dh came to see me tonight, and while he was here I was got my daily NST, he left before they took me off the monitors as he has to work in the morning. About 5 mins after he left they came in to take me off and my nurse had a syringe in her hand. I didn't think much about it til she said "your baby look great, but you're having contractions"! I didn't even feel them!! The nurse gave me a shot of terbuteline, which makes you feel like super nervous. I stayed on the monitor for a while after that and they had stopped, but they are gonna check me again in a bit. Super scary stuff!! Glad i am in the hospital where they catch stuff like this early.

Hugs,
Donna

I had turbutaline when I went into early labor around 30 weeks and it made me super jumpy. I hope things calm down. Remember to try not to stress (I know, way easier said than done). Your body reacts to it and it will only make things worse. :) Let us know how things are going today if you get a chance!

Wow!! The board has exploded!! Terrific!

Donna, WELCOME! I hope you're having a good day today! Not that I would EVER want anything to threaten my baby, but a week of bedrest sounds nice to me. :lol: My husband was in the hospital with a staph infection about a month ago and I was slightly jealous of the "quiet time" he was getting.

If you already have kids can they visit you in the hospital? I don't think I'd want to go very long without seeing Jake.

Donna, How did it turn out? Are you ok? Your right its good that they can catch it cause your right there.
Toby sounds like cant wait to meet his Momma and Daddy, but he got to hang in there for a few more weeks! Hes just excited!

Guys,
I broke down and enrolled the 8 year old in summer school:write:. All he's been doing this summer is swimming, veggn' out on video games and eating me out of house and home. So when his school said they had a summer program I was like heck yeah:woohoo:! I'm filling out the paper work NOW:carrot:!
The two year old will be with me (if i don't get a buyer lol:dz:), shes into this naked phase. Every time i turn my back, she strips:fr:, what with that?..Anyways, I figure its easier to cart one kid around instead of two.

BTW, I have a personal trainer:drill:, I hate him:dz:. He's talking about upping my workouts:woops:..Remember the days when being pregnant or in a "delicate condition" meant just that? And they WANTED you to gain weight? No not today, now its ok to do back braking labor as long as you "use your legs to lift":sumo:! I swear every time I go to the OB's office I gotta hear "because your heaver we have to do this or that different....." uhgg give me a brake! I didn't have to do anything DIFFERENT to get in this position! Ok Im done venting:soap:

Oh if your wonder why I use so many "cartoon smiles" in my messages its for the 2 year old, she gets a big kick out of them...since she has to be present for every message I send out..

I had my u/s this morning, Toby looks great, measures right on date, weighs 2lb 2oz, and was taking practice breaths. My cervical length did change a bit, but the perinatologist said it was probably caused by the contractions. I had a NST after the u/s, and had no contractions, so that made me feel a little better.
I think this will be a sleepy day for me, I have napped most of the day and feel like I could the rest, lol. DH won't be here today, he has tons of yard work to do.

Hugs,
Donna

Go Toby!!

Im learning being pregnant in the summer is nuts! I feel like im wearing a backpack in the front of me..I cant seem to get cool enough! Doing the simplest things makes me winded...did anyone start feeling "Bigger" around your 20th week? I feel like all of the sudden I just ballooned up!

Maybe it's pg hormones but I cried when one of the neighbor kids told my 2 year old to go the h*ll away and flipped him off when he asked her to play. Why are kids so mean?? (she was only about 4 *maaaaaaaaybe* 5 too)

and I feel HUGE already, the heat isn't helping at all either. :cool:

WOW!! What must she hear day in and day out from her parents to say something like that to another kid?? That would have upset me, too. That little one has some rough times ahead of her unless she learns to tame that tongue. :(

]Megan, You don't want your kid playing with that kid anyways..I agree with Gale on this one, most likely someone said or is saying that to her..and too often for her to be repeating it. Even though it seems like mean kids are everywhere, most kids are caring and giving like your 2 year old:hug:.

Remember, as a Mom when they hurt we hurt for them twice as bad. But kids are resilient, unlike us, they get over it, forget it and move on quickly..we could really learn from them at times![/QUOTE]

Yeah it just sucks big time. I've never seen him so heartbroken. :( I wish there were kids here for him to play with but there really aren't . I think she was the youngest one the older kids either bowl him over or just ignore him.

I was kinda in the same situation with my son, having no one to play with when he was around 2. I called my local school district and found out that there are play groups as early as age 2 that you can enroll them in. Now i was the clingy' type of parent and did not want to let him go, but he loved it.

For my son it was more of a issue that he was not talking or not responding to us when we called. He was diagnosed with autism, but we caught it early so he adjusting fine..cant get him to be quite now!

Anyways, with my 2 year old I am enrolling her in head start, she's fine hitting all her milestones, shes very social! Paying for daycare would be foolish when head start is free for ANYONE regardless of income (Meany people believe it's for low income, not true). Also the kids in your neighborhood go to your local head start, so my son went with 5 of his present classmates..It was cool!

Hi ladies...

I am still here. I just have been feeling kinda down. I am so nauseous all the time and tired, I feel like I am not getting to enjoy Johanthon as much as I would like. I am only 10 weeks, but feel like I have been pregnant forever. I know I only had a 3 month break, but I just feel so big and blah. I am hoping it will pass once I get to the second trimester and I start to feel better.

I hope that everyone is feeling well and babies are all doing well.

I remember that feeling lovinlife, but it does get better. When I was 10 weeks I thought i was going to die...but around week 15 it eased up slowly, now I just feel big but not too sick.

Hang in there lovinlifex2. I was sick all the way up until my 13th week and all of the sudden i woke up one day feeling a little more normal.

I have my big u/s this afternooon! I can't wait!

lovinlife, you are one awesomely strong woman. I know that this baby was a big surprise, but you're handling it with such grace. Keep on hanging in there, you'll start feeling better soon!

MeganBeth, Let us know what the u/s shows! Any preference on boy or girl?

I would love to have a little pink in my life but I'll be happy either way. If it is a girl it will be the first one in DH's family on his dads side for like 3-4 generations lol

Megan- Any news yet?

Hugs,
Donna

We just got home not long ago and it's a boy!!! Definitely going to save us $$ on clothes! :D

Congrats!! Megan. Anyone else know what they are having? I went in for my U/S and the tech said she was 51% sure i was having a girl..What? 51%?

Ours is definately all boy, lol. We found out at 15 weeks, which is way early, but I had my cerclage put in the week before, so as I was having the u/s to check the stitches, the nurse at my perinatologists office asked if we wanted to know what the baby was, and I told her of course, lol. There was no mistaking it was a boy, and he proudly shows it off every week at my u/s!

Hugs,
Donna

Hi everyone ...
Well I am having a surprice baby, I can't wait .
I Have a 8 years old girl and a 2 years old boy..... honestly we will like to have a boy, so they can play together.

wfonseca3017 I have a 8 year old boy and a 2 year old girl! Not sure what I want, right now I just want a brake from the 2 I have. Ether way Ill be happy!

I had a great shower, got tons of stuff, and am so exhausted!! I still have quite a bit of family that didn't make it that are stopping by this week, so I know we will get lots more stuff for little Toby, lol. I am so tired, think I will take a little rest before the nurse comes in to do my vitals.

Hugs,
Donna

I love showers!

Ok, so remember I was saying my 2 kids were being A LOT of trouble this summer. Well I got the 8 year old enrolled in summer school. Today I put him on the bus and broke down like a baby in front of everyone!! Now i miss him so much! Ahh pregnancy hormones!

My pink/blue u/s is Wednesday. I'm hoping for a little boy, since I still have all of Jake's hand-me-downs! Of course, I'll be tickled if I'm having a girl, too--although then I'll have to get used to the "Oh, now you have a COMPLETE family" remarks. (I've actually already been hearing that from some people!!)

Why do people think that 2 kids is the limit these days?

I am so happy .... tomorrow is my 30 weeks mark...... 10 to go.

Well I hope some in my family is planing a Shower for me.I got two showers whit my last two pregnancys.... so lets hope for two.

How has names ready.
My are for girl Mia Mickaela and for boy Tristan Devine

I thought you weren't supposed to get showers with babies after the first one?

4myself: I heard that also, but you can have a second shower if-- the second baby is a different sex, or the baby's are far apart in age like more then 4 years, your having twins or if its for sure your last one.

However I feel its ok to have showers for every baby you have if you chose, there is no set rule...Now if your having 7 kids back to back and a shower for each one, you may find that people are a little "ify"... but hay I say send out the invitations anyways!

I've decided that i don't want a "shower" but would rather have a welcoming party. Gifts optional, just a bbq and cake, no real shower games. Though I'm going to get in on an american apparel co-op and buy a bunch of white lap tees and then get some fabric markers and have family decorate tshirts for the new bean and DS.

For my SIL's first, we did a big shower...for her second, we did a "sprinkle", where everyone pretty much got her diapers and wipes and bath stuff and bottles...the stuff you really need.

Hugs,
Donna

Hey everyone!
It looks like a new round of pregos is rolling in! I must be bringing up the rear at 33 weeks! Things with the pregnancy have been going great! Weight gain has been decent...14 lbs. We had our 4D u/s at 32 weeks, I am attaching a few pictures of our sweet lil guy! I can't believe how much you can see! He looks just like his daddy!

This is our first, plus the first grandchil and great grandchild, so my mom is going ALL out with the baby shower!

Pictures from our 4D:

blueyedlvrgirl- I don't mean to be a threadcrasher as I am not expecting.... HOWEVER, can I just say that the 4d pics you posted are amazing?!?! I am TTC and occasionally take a peek n here! I am just in awe of this new type of ultrasound. How awesome!

Cool picks!! WOW..I have a question...We are all kinda do at the end of summer into Nov right? Well I was talking to my Mother-in-law about the holidays and honestly I'm kinda worried about taking a new born out during flu, RSV and cold season especially around kids and large groups of people and the baby will be too young to be vaccinated:rolleyes:..I'm due 22 of Nov. so he/she will be MAYBE 6 weeks old around the holidays (Thanksgiving is out:turkey::nono:)..has anyone thought of this? What will you be choosing to do? We have over 5 houses to visit as we was a BIG family...

Well for us that's easy. We aren't vaxing at all until our LO's are ready to start school. We gave DS Some of his vax's before stopping but this LO won't have any.

I'm mean, no one can hold the baby w/o washing their hands and I've got no problem telling my family no, We just do lots of hand washing and any other preventative measures we can.

My son was born on November 21st last year. Like you said, he was too little for his first round of vaccines by the holidays, but we were just very careful. We didn't take him anywhere with crowds for the first 5 weeks (as per Dr's orders). After that, we didn't let many people hold him and those that did either washed their hands first or used anti-bac gel (that I carried with me.) People usually understand when you tell them no, especially if you explain that it's RSV season. When we started going back to church and things like that I just kept him in his infant carrier, that way no one would be able to pick him up!

You won't be able to protect them from everything, and sometimes you just have to let go a little. It was scary for me the first time I put my son in the nursery at church, and he did get sick (ear infection & cold), but it wasn't the end of the world. My fears were definitely worse than the real thing.

I'm seriously :?: right now. My DS has had what I thought was heat rash for 3 days now. I'm starting to wonder if it's 5ths disease. his cheeks are red but he doesn't really have the lacy rash over his body just heat rash looking. UGH

has anyone held a needle over their wrist to see what the sex will be? is it called dowsing? from what I understand if the needle moves in a circular motion its a girl and if it moves back and forth its a boy.
has anyone done this? and was it accurate?

Ours would do both. Circle and back and forth and I'm having a boy! Though we used my wedding ring on a strand of hair.

Found out yesterday that I'll need to do a lot of clothes shopping! No hand-me-downs will work for this baby!!

Now I've got a lot of little boy's clothing to consign or give away!

How fun 4myself! Enjoy shopping for all of those little frilly dresses! :)

blueyedlvrgirl- I don't mean to be a threadcrasher as I am not expecting.... HOWEVER, can I just say that the 4d pics you posted are amazing?!?! I am TTC and occasionally take a peek n here! I am just in awe of this new type of ultrasound. How awesome!

Thanks Heather! I can't believe how much detail you can see! When you hold up the pics to daddy's baby pics, you can TOTALLY see the resemblance! I am thoroughly amazed as well, which is why I shared!

I don't think anyone would call you a thread crasher! Good luck TTC!

Hay everyone! hows it going. its was 60 degrees here today!! OMG people keep telling I'm so lucky to be pregnant during this cool summer...but I still have to get threw August! Hows everyone else holding up?

Ps. anyone know what "cord banking" is about? Has anyone done it or thinking about it?

It's been so freaking hot here it kills me! Today and yesterday were alright only around 60-70 and pretty nice but we're supposed ot be up in the 90's by like tuesday :o

I had my mwappt today and I'm so happy I don't have to drink that disgusting glucose drink! She gave me the option of having pancakes syrup, and juice or 32 jelly beans, OR drinking the drink... i'll take the jelly beans thanks!

Hi ladies .. well I did my glucose test and came back high, now i did the 2 hours .... i hope everithing is ok.

My test came back high in the first 15 weeks. At first i was bummed but I've been managing my diabetes since and I have to admit this is one of my healthiest pregnancy. Ive only gained but 2 pounds because I had to start eating right. It sucked at first, trust me, but it is benefiting me in the end..I do miss eating what I want when I want, but i look at it like Im training myself to eat better so I dont have so much baby weight to lose after this. I'm trying to see the positive in all this!

I had my mwappt today and I'm so happy I don't have to drink that disgusting glucose drink! She gave me the option of having pancakes syrup, and juice or 32 jelly beans, OR drinking the drink... i'll take the jelly beans thanks!

Ummmmm.....Jelly beans.........why can't everyone do that? Sounds much better than that disgusting juice! There was a lady at my last docs appt. drinking the juice--just the look on her face brought back memories! Ewww. :p

With Jake, my 1st test came back high, so I had to go back for the two-hour test. It came back normal, but then when Jake was born, his peditrician wanted to know why I hadn't been monotoring (sp?) or controlling my GD better. I told him I'd never been diagnosed with GD--the 2nd test came back normal. Jake's sugar was high for the first couple of days, but then went to normal, thank goodness!

I think it might be a difference between a Midwife and an OB. I guess some MW's do the drink as well but she gave me the option and I sure as heck was NOT drinking that drink again lol.

Just checking in to see how everyone is doing..I went for my blood work yesterday. I had to do the triple screen as I am 35...I think i did it kinda late as I am past 22 weeks. Anyways they kept saying "If you want to terminate the pregnancy this will help you decided"...I think that's why i hesitated to take the test because it would not matter ether way, whatever God gives me, I'll deal..I have so far. But I guess its good to be prepared.

Tiff - that's why I never had 1st tri genetic screening done. The only purpose of it is for abortion and that will never be an option. I did get the second tri done, but it was so that if the baby did have Downs or something else we could be researched and prepared when he arrived. I don't know yet whether I'll get it done again, there are up sides and down sides to both.

My mom had to have amniocentesis with both my brother and sister since she was over 35 with both of them. I hope I don't ever have to get that done! With my little brother, the Dr let go of the syringe and said "look!"... it was moving back and forth. My little brother was kicking the needle inside her.

No tri screen here. My MW said there was no need if we had no plans on ever terminating a pregnancy.

And I'll never have an amnio done either. *Shudder* First I hate needles and the chance of miscarriage is too much for me to handle. :barf:

Gale- you right on that one, I did it so that if there is something there i could be prepared and my family (grandparents ect) would be prepared, not to terminate. I remember when my daughter was born and the room got all quiet because she was not breathing well. It shocked us all to see her go to the NICU..and knowing that I could have had a amno done that would have told us her lungs were not ready (I had a planned C-section) was even harder to deal with.
..so your right, I think its good to know just so you aren't blind sided..

I did have and amno done; they are not bad at all, they numb the area so you don't feel the needle but i had it towards the very end, i had to have fluid removed..but I was scared trust me...I have learned: Never say never to anything cuz you don't know what you might have to do for your baby!

However whatever the test comes back with, if i still can get a read, I'm all good. I have to have a stage 2 ultra sound..I opted for this because I am a diabetic and want to make sure baby is growing correctly and that I'm controlling my sugars well. On my first one everything looked fine!

oh mah gawd HOT. We don't usually get above 90 all summer and even 90 is an oddity. It was 104 yesterday and at 8 am it's was already 70. I'm DYING...

MeganBeth, what the heck is up with that? Do y'all have humidity with your heat like we do? If it were 104 here, chances are the heat index would be closer to 115!

I think the humidity was around 24 yesterday...not that i have any clue WHAT that means lol the temp was106 with a 'real feel' of 110. It's supposed to cool down tomorrow but we're going to the beach anyways.

Yesterday was the first time ever recorded that Seattle has broken the record heat of 100 on the water front which was set in 1891. It was 103 there.

ETA: At the moment (9 am) its 71 degrees with 61% humidity. shoot me lol

One thing I must say is that although temps over 100 are very common during the summer here we have no humidity. 15% is a really humid day for us. It makes the heat easier to bear. I'm feeling for you Megan!

Whoo, me too!! Take it easy, try to stay cool and HYDRATED!!

I know I'm the one that brought up the humidity question (we ALWAYS have a humidity factor!), but 104 is hot, no matter what!

We finally have a name!! Liam Thomas! :D

I re-read my last post wow, i sound like a B***, didn't mean to come off that way..dang...

Guys got my screen back tested negative for downs and everything else, yes i cried like a baby! and they conformed it, ITS A GIRL!!! I seriously thinking about naming her after myself, does any of you know any girls that are Jr.'s??

Guys we in the Northeast are complaining it was cool over here, for the last week we had temps in the lower 70's..mean while the west is on fire!!! What gives?? Al Gore must be excited!!

Hello everyone! I haven't been keeping up with 3FC at all but I am back at work now and that makes it easier.

I am done nursing (could only do it for 2 months and didn't want to mess with my supply) and start back on WW today! I have 34 to lose to get to my pre-preg weight and then another 11 to my "comfy" weight of 155.

And this made it worth it!

Phoebe is such a cutie patootie!! She looks like one of those babies that has a perpetual grin, gotta love it.

I'm glad that you were able to nurse for those 2 months, that's great!

Enjoy your time with her, it goes SO fast.

She is a really easy baby and smiles a lot!

I have one of those, too... isn't it wonderful? :D
