We made it to FEB.!!! WooHoo

So, How are we doing?? Is everyOne getting excited! I have to say that Jan. just flyed by! I really didnt think it was going too, at the start but here we are Feb.!!! Thank goodness! I am SO ready to be done!!

We are still waiting on just a few last things we need for baby....I am telling myself to have my bags packed and ready by 35-36 weeks, I am also going to pack a small bag for my boy's, just in case I go into labor on my own and say its in the middle of the night they will have stuff to change into, while we are gone and Hunter is still in diapers, so want to make sure everyone is takin care of, So I dont have to worry.....

I start my weekly NST's this week, which is nice but I am hating the double drive out to my Ob office, such a pain. I have an U/s Thursday, and I am so excited to see how big he is. Hunter at 32w was already 5lbs 1oz, and at 36w 5lbs10oz but was born at 39w at 6lbs 10oz...Im thinking this one is going to be alittle bigger, but I guess we'll see..

You are right, so far it has been a pretty uneventful pregnancy, maybe that's why I worry so much :) Double best wishes to both of you.

If you're not having a lot of appts, that's ok. It sounds like your pregnancy has gone really well :) Like mommaofonetrying42, I've had lots of surprises/complications along the way. Plus, we're having twins, so I'm now going to one appt every Tues. & three appts every Fri.

I am 33w2d today and I can't believe how close we are getting to the end. You all seem to have more u/s than me, but my OB has not planned another one before the birth. Is the 34w growth u/s recommended? I don't know the weight of the baby at all, I can say, though, that I'm constantly increasing mine (I will really need to work hard to get rid of all these pounds, but it is definitely worth it!). So far I've only bought baby clothes, car seat and stroller... btw, could anybody recommend a bassinet for the first few weeks? I feel that I am getting there unprepared... I am really excited, but, in fairness, I am also scared. This is our first child and I just hope I will be able to give him all he needs.

I'm not as much excited as I'm nervous! I'm just not looking forward to that lose of "just me and you" between me and my husband but I'm definitely looking forward seeing my baby! I mean....ah I just don't know how to explain it! It's not that I don't want this baby (since we planned for it) but I know its going to be super hard especially since I've never had a baby around me! but I love her so much already!
Had my 2 weeks apt yesterday, didn't gain one pound but the baby , at 32w4d is already a little over 4 lbs. Doc said she's going to be 7 or 8 lbs when she's born. SHe also did an u/s and saw the baby is downwards already. Thank GOD , i was getting paranoid thinking I was going to have to have the baby manually turned or something cause I kept feeling her kicking on my sides ALL the time, but at the end those "kicks" were made on the left by her butt and on the right by her legs lol

I have may be 5 more weeks to go... my OB said we can expect by end of feb which is great...though in my mind i still cant imagine delivering...reality hasn't struck me yet :)
I am doing great so is baby. Did NST last week and it went well. we have few essentials ready for the baby. We dont know the gender, so we got both blue and pink stuff.  Everybody keep guessing what it would be. I am happy either ways, dh prefers a boy.. he is little scared of raising girls.. thinks he will spoil them...

Woo-Hoo is right! Congrats to us all :) I went on bedrest one day before 24 weeks & I'll be 32 weeks on Thurs. I just can't believe it :) I'll be off bedrest as of 34 weeks & then I can do a little preparing (hopefully) before the babies are born. I start my NSTs this week, too, but I'll go every Tues & Fri til they're born. I think I'm
going more often because of my gestational diabetes with insulin & there are twins. I start tomorrow & I'm excited :) Fridays will be busy with the nutritionist, NST & either my high risk doc or on. This Fri is our high risk doc. Like Catann, we'll have our growth scan, which is always exciting :) We're getting close, ladies :)

Well i had my 32 week check up today, everything is looking great. I gained 4 lbs in two weeks which isn't that great but oh well. Other than that I still have some things to buy too, i have to get a girdle and i have to get some breast shields just in-case i need them. I am packing a bag for me and in it i will put the baby's outfit to take her out of the hospital. I have a growth sonogram on Monday so i am very excited about that because they will do a 3d so thats nice. other than that i am anxious to meet my lady bug!
