  1. Congrats!! The cramps are pretty normal - usually are from implantation. And don't worry about not feeling different... I think the hardest part of those first few weeks is that you DON'T feel anything. Try to relax and enjoy!

Apollo's old now so he doesn't really pay much attention to the baby. He'll sniff him and that's it. But, yours is still young so I'm sure he has much more energy than mine. If you do take a pic of them both, please post; I would love to see! BTW- Congrats on your baby (not sure if I posted anything before)
    Thanks! Ozzie is actually pretty good with Finn, but I don't trust him just yet. Its funny because Ozzie kisses his feet, which is about the most adorable thing ever! I'm waiting until Finn can sit up (or at least hold his head up) to take pics of them together - but I'll post when I do!

Most of the pain is in my back plus the tightening and the pressure in my pelvis and then the baby decides to move at that moment and it all combines to be not so pleasant as I try to go about my normal day.
    Finn was 37 weeks, and he definitely could've used a few more days (weeks) to cook. We had a rough start and they think it was probably from him being early. Sorry to hear your uncomfortable, but soon you'll have your little one in your arms and you'll feel so much better!

    Congrats Heidi!!! Gosh I've been off BDW for a long time - I didn't know you guys were preggo! I love her name and she's absolutely gorgeous!! Enjoy!
  3. That's so exciting Margie! Hopefully you'll keep making progress and will be meeting your little one soon!

    Ozzie is over 170lbs - not sure exactly what he's at now that he's full grown though. He turn 2 this Friday :) We've taken pics of him sniffing the baby, but he's still a bit rough and I don't totally trust him. He wouldn't hurt Finn on purpose, but Il worry about him swinging a massive paw his direction or something. I thought your dog was a Dane - Great name BTW! Ozzie is short for Ozymandius.
  4. LOL on the Sophie... Finn is too young for it, but we got one too. Everyone I talk to says that their kids love it, but I'm not sure how I'll keep my dogs away from it when the time comes. They already think that all the little baby toys and stuffies are for them.

     

    Mrs. Martin - that pic of your son is too precious! What kind of dog do you have? We have a Newfie and I'd love to do a picture like that next year for holiday cards!

  5. Just wanted to stop by and say hello! My little guy is officially 1 month old today - which is crazy! His name is Finneas (Finn) Eric, and while the past month has been a huge adjustment, we are totally in love with him and enjoying parenthood!

     

    Here's some pics:

  6. Hey ladies! I know, I pop in and out on here - lol. I'm going to make more of an effort to stop into BDW more often though, and not just hang out on fertilityfriend. :)

     

    Kat - I'm hoping not to hear from you this morning - lol. Hopefully, that little girl wants to join the world today! You're doctor was talking about inducing tomorrow if she hasn't made the decision to come out on her own, right?

     

    Shelly and Amy - congrats!!! It seems like just yesterday we were planning weddings and now we're all preggers!

     

    Kelly - that's so scary! I'm high risk with my job, but I just don't think they've tested long enough on pregnant women, so I'm not getting the vaccine. Maybe I'll rethink after my little boy comes though. I hope Kerrington is doing better!

     

    Hope everyone is doing well!

  7. Hello ladies! I haven't been on BDW in forever and a year, but wanted to stop in, say hello and see how all the other preggos are! We're almost 28 weeks now, having a boy, and getting super excited!

     

    Hope everyone is doing well!

  8. Congrats Kelly and Summer! Your little ones are gorgeous!

     

    Amy - Congrats on #2! Great news! And your son is adorable! I love those onesies with the months on them! What a great idea :)

     

    Hope everyone is doing well! I have my repeat NT scan tonight - baby just wasn't cooperating last week. I get to see the little one again though, so I'm excited! Hello second trimester, here I come!

  9. Congrats Summer!! I can't believe how many of you are due so soon!

     

    Beach Bride - I never got sick... I'm almost out of the first trimester, and the only symptoms I had were being exhausted, sore bbs, and a hint of nausea here and there. I was worried early on, but now I just feel lucky :) Enjoy it!

  10. Carly - Congrats!!!! I hope eveyrthing is going ok and that your u/s looks good :)

     

    Just popping in to say hi! We have our NT scan on Monday, and doctor's appt's up the wazoo... My prenatal screen came back with hypothyroid, so I had to see an endocrinologist this week, and I have an appt with high risk next week. I'm sure everything is going to be fine because we caught it early and they started me on meds, but its still a PITA.

     

    Hope everyone is doing well!

  11. Carly and Lizz - congrats to both of you on your anniversaries! And Lizz - Drew is adorable!

     

    I've definitely missed you guys wink.gif Life got really busy, and I've been active on Fertility Friend with the TTC (we have a little BDW group over there). I will definitely try to pop in more often!

  12. Hey ladies! I know I've been totally AWOL for about 6 months (maybe more?) but I wanted to say hello :)

     

    Sam and I bought our house last March and have been heavily into remodelling. We finally finished our family room and just built a new deck! Tons of work, but it keeps us busy and was a good place to put my post-wedding planning/DIYing energy. As some of you may remember, we got a Newfoundland puppy last summer - who is still a puppy at heart, but is now 160lbs - lol!

    Of course the most exciting update is that we're pregnant! We've been TTC since August, so finally getting that big fat positive was a huge celebration! I'm due January 6th, 2010, but we're hoping the little blob will want to be a Christmas baby.

     

    I hope you're all doing well! I miss you guys!

  13. Hi Sara - I know I'm a bit late for this, but welcome! I was married last January at Coral Cove and absolutely loved it! If you have any questions, PM me (I'm not around much these days). Congrats!

  14. Hello ladies... I've been totally AWOL from BDW (and busy on FertilityFriend), but I just got my BFP and wanted to share!!! We've been trying for 9 months, so while I'm totally excited, we're also feeling a bit cautious about it.

     

    Anyhoo - just wanted to pop in and say hello!

Actually, I have been watching what I eat. Are there fertility foods?
    Are you using FF? You should definitely join our chat on there... What's your screenname on FF so we can send you a link?

    I haven't checked in on this thread in a while so I have a lot of catching up to do!
    Hey ladies! I know I'm not on here much anymore, but I'm on FF (screenname Hopels) so would love to chat over there :) We're now on month 8 TTC, and just started month 2 with Clomid. We had a "chemical" pregnancy in December, which was totally depressing when AF came right before Christmas.

    So, we're back at it again and trying to stay positive. My OB said to give it 3 months with Clomid, and if I'm still not pregos, he's sending me to a RE. So, I guess we'll see what happens!

    Good luck to everyone and here's wishing for all the BFP's!
