Last Pregnancy

Thank goodness this will be my last pregnancy. I am getting a tubal ligation done after I give birth. I already have 2 boys & this one is my first girl. I am alone in this pregnancy but that's ok. I just hope my baby girl is healthy. This pregnancy was extra hard for me but I managed to cope. She has the most hardest kicks and seems she's up all the time inside, she moves 24/7, lol! Which I love. I freak out if an hour goes by and she doesn't move. Silly,huh?! I am 3 weeks away from delivery and I am so excited, my boys can't wait either. They're just happy they dont have to share anymore toys or clothes. :)

Forty Is a Big Year for Me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a son who just had his twenty-first birthday, a daughter who turned sixteen this summer and come November, a new daughter. Everyone is excited about the baby and yes she was planned. I found out this spring, shortly after my fortieth birthday. The happy news is we are having a scheduled cesarean on her Daddy’s birthday. This will be his first child and he cannot wait till his fortieth birthday to meet her.

I have felt great and haven’t had any medical problems. I wouldn’t even know I was pregnant but the belly gives it away. I am a construction manager which is very demanding but I plan to work till the day before our appointment. I work four ten hour days or longer and still go home to cooking, cleaning, laundry, and football games. My sweet sixteen is a high school cheerleader who also has competitions that require my presence. I wish everyone could be as blessed as I have. I am ready to start all over and looking forward to enjoying all the precious moments with our new addition.

Worried

I'm just now 28 weeks pregnant. I know I don't have but 12 weeks left, but this is my first pregnancy, and my mother and her mother had complications.

You see my grandmother took medicine with my mother, that to where if my mother had a girl, she could be infertile. Well she wasn't of course, but she did get an abnormal uterus, to where I was born at 7 1/2 mnths and 3 lbs. My mother took that same medicine with me.

But i've also had dysplasia(sp?) 2 times and had surgery, doctors say I'll be fine, but I'm just nevrous, and hope I can deliver on my due date and not too early. It scares me.

Not There Yet!!!

I'm due to have my baby by october 9 2006. My pregnancy was unexpected and took awhile to get used to. These past few months have been great. I never had morning sickness or way out there food cravings. I am still working (sometimes 50-60 hours a week) and running my home. I never seem to have enough time to spend with my belly.But I think it's what has made evreything so easy on me.The only consern my doctor has had is that I've gained alot of weight and may deliver early. But other than that I am very thankful for how much my pregnancy has been a breeze especially from what I hear other women have been through.
