Baby stories and soon to be born

[Red_Rose]

Ive noticed theres alot of pregnant women about lately and thought it would be nice to start a thread of experiences. Maybe theres some things ur getting that someone feels shy to ask like the q below etc, and for just general learning etc?

Maybe another one could be opened for the TTC or keep it all here?

Id just like to say all the best to thoses TTC and those preg and due soon (seems to be a few due soons!) And the newborns! God bless u all

I have two and one on the way. My 5 yr old daughter was 9 lbs - natural birth with epidural that didn't take. My 3 yr old son was 8.5 lbs - I opted for no pain medication (won't do THAT again) both labors had to be induced.. but were fairly quick and easy. Had to have episiotomy with both - yuck! Due with my 3rd on the 24th of this month.. hoping to be induced sooner. They told me he is 6 - 6.5 lbs now.. and that if I go to term, he could be 10 lbs. I have only gained 15 lbs.. which I am very proud of, it was alot of hard work and discipline, but worth it now that I am about to deliver. Good Luck to everyone regardless of what your situation is!  :) Jen
