What is with men? Larry did the same thing last night. Granted he only had 3 beers but it was a Tuesday night. I was NOT impressed. Then last Sunday he said he wasn't going to drink during the game and he picked up a 6 pack. I find it so disrespectful. I am the only one that has to do the right things and be healthy for the baby? Maybe I wanted to drink (which I do NOT ewwww) but if I did and couldn't it would be a slap in the face to watch him sit there and drink it up. This coming saturday he wants to go on a bike run and I can't go so I am staying home with his son who we have for the weekend. That irritates me too. Do they fear their lives are going to be over when the baby comes and are worried or something? I just don't know. He isn't normally a drinker, that's the funniest part. Well take care, rest up, and vent all you want. We often have the same issues and don't talk about it until someone else does.

Stacey- Thanks! That makes me feel so much better! :) It is frustrating b/c we were already restricting ourselves BEFORE we even got pregnant, and then of course while we're pregnant. I know he'll be over drinking when she gets here, but it frustrates me that I have to wait for her to get here for that to happen, ya know?! It's not out of control or anything, and he does stay at home in the backyard with the guys so at least he's not driving or out somewhere, but it still drives me nuts! It's funny b/c it really just started when I told him how quick she's going to be here, only another 10-11 weeks so maybe I shouldn't have even said anything!! Anyway, your pics are absolutely adorable!! :) I can imagine how busy you've been so we're always happy to hear from you, and we understand! ;) We'll be where you are shortly! :)
Mommyin10- Thanks! :) It's just frustrating b/c he feels like he's not doing anything wrong, and I know it could be a lot worse but like Stacey said, we're the ones who are restricted so it's just frustrating because I feel like he should be in the same state of mind that I'm in! I'm not that controlling wife, I really don't care that he drinks, but why does it have to be every weekend?! Idk, I know I'm more emotional these days too but he understands that. Anyway, I'm glad that you'll be able to hear the babies' heartbeats at your next appointment! I can't wait to start guessing!! ;) Definately post pics soon and I promise to do the same! :)
Ad_06- It's so good to hear from you! :) I'm so happy to hear that you're going back to your RE next month, how exciting!!! I know it gets so costly seeing an RE, so hopefully it'll happen your first month back!! ;) I'm glad to hear your dad is doing good, and that his tumor wasn't cancerous! I know that must give you and your family a huge relief! Keep us posted on when/if AF shows and you see your RE again! We're all anxious for you to be right back on that BFP where you deserve to be! Take care! :)
Luvkayln - Hello friend! I just read your note about Sean. The funny thing is John treated the pre-baby period almost like a "bachelor" party thing too. He really wanted to plan some boys nights etc. He is older so nothing too crazy but because we are the ones carrying the babies it is so different. We can't drink and have all the restrictions so we are really acting parent already. John was so over it as soon as Jake was born - he is now so tired he can't even fathom being hung over! :) Anyway, it wasn't too big of a deal but the experience for us is so much different then for our dh's. I'm sure it will pass.
Mommyin10 - Ohhh I can't wait to start guessing the sex of the twins!!! And you must post more pictures soon. I'm looking forward to your next appt!!
Keyan - Getting excited for you to start trying again!!
Mrspace - Hope you feel better soon. I know you have been going through a tough time :(
Dnikki - Woo hoo....a girl!!! Yay...and I love the name Payton (that's what you are going with??) That is so exciting.
So everything is going really well with us. The only issue is that Jake is one of the newborns who loves to be close and is in my arms most of the day. So at best I have one free arm which is why it is so hard to keep up with you ladies!! I read but can't type back. He is growing and is over 8 lbs now. He is a real cute little guy. It is tough at times but for the most part John and I are just so excited for him to start growing and interacting more - and getting stronger neck muscles so his head doesn't flop over!!! lol
I posted a couple of pics.
Talk soon and SSBD!!!
Stacey
Luvkayln: I'm sorry! ;( I know it'll pass, but I can understand how it su cks for you right now... Maybe you could plan something for the two of you to do & see how he responds :)
Yes, we'll listen for the heartbeats at our next appt! They'll be 13 weeks, so I'm sure we'll hear them & I promise to remember the rates so we can start guessing! :) That's too cute that Addy has hiccups!!! Awww :-) Yes, I'll post pics soon. I bought some cute maternity jeans & I'm SO much more comfortable! I can't wait to see how big your belly is :)
ad_06: It's great to hear from you & how wonderful for your dad that it's not cancerous!!! That's awesome :) Keep us posted on your plans. October is right around the corner! :-)
Everyone seems to be doing great on here. I read the updates alot, but just have nothing to really update on myself. I think I am going to go back to the RE in Oct. I have had too long of a break. Since my M/C in April, it's time to go back. Financially we are still not ready, but I am determined to figure something out, within the next 2 weeks :)
Right now I am doing pretty good, I think I am suffering from exhaustion, with all this trying to work, help my mom and dad and make the trips for all these drs appts, let alone trying to keep up with all my stepsons activities and maintain my own household. It's been rough, but I'll manage. I took my dad back to the Dr yesterday and it turns out that his tumor was not cancerous!!!!! Thank God!!
I also just found out that My SIL is pregnant again. I am happy for her, but just sad that I'm not. She wants a little girl so bad....so maybe this will be it for her... She has a stepson who is 9 and 2 boys of her own 4 and almost 2 ....so if she has a girl...it'll be my in laws 1st granddaughter. I think DH said she is due in May.
I am so glad to see that everyone is doing great. I'll try to write more from time to time....
Good Luck Ladies!!!
sbumblebeeo: Yes, I feel great pregnancy-wise! :) Addy has the hiccups right now! Kayln used to get them all the time and I've been waiting patiently for Addy to get them, so it just makes me smile! :) Sean and I are kind of having a little bump in the road I feel like. He's going through this phase where he just wants to have a good time with the guys every weekend before the baby gets here, as he says. I don't like it. I don't like him drinking every weekend... He says he's trying to "get it out of his system." Which is the most selfish thing I think I've ever heard him say, because you don't just change overnight when the baby gets here. Aaaghhh! :( Sorry to vent, I'm just feeling sad about it and trying to talk to him right now is out of the question. He just doesn't get it I guess... Anyway, I'll be thinking about you on Friday! :) It'll be exciting to see how much your little one has grown since the last time you saw him/her! :)
