Awww Karma - you're so sweet. you can't talk all sappy to a bunch of pregnant girls....you will make us cry. I agree though, I'm not sure what I would have done w/o the support of the girls here.

 

I think James is finally understanding BDW. Through the wedding he thought it was stupid, but now that I can come here and get all my questions answered about our son and learn so much - - he loves it!

I got this from her on Friday. I haven't seen that she's posted any pics either sad.gif

 

Hannah is here, im typing one handed now holding her. She was born at 2:55pm on Wednesday after a relatively painless delivery, thanks to an early epidural! It was such an amazing experience. I only pushed for 10 minutes and after 3 contractions worth of pushing she was out! She was bigger than we thought. She was 7 pounds 7 ounces (our wedding date was 7-7) kinda neat coincidence and 19 1/2 inches long. She looks just like Steve! I'm so exhausted so i will try and post pics soon after a little rest.

Hi Girls! How is everyone feeling? I hope everyone is feeling well. Thanks again for all the well wishes the past week!

 

Lisa- It's Tuesday so I'm guessing you have a Dr.'s appointment today! LOL...can you tell I'm excited for Luke to get here. How have you been feeling? Any contractions/cramps lately? Let us know what the Dr. says when you get back!

 

 

As for me, I'm still doing pretty well. I slept in today so I feel better than I have been. Recovery has been pretty good. I have only been taking Motrin and I'm not taking much of it anymore. It's the sleep deprivation that is hard, but I think my body is adjusting and it's totally worth it!

 

I do have to admit though, I miss being pregnant a little bit! Steve and I had said Hannah was going to be our last, but we have both mentioned in the past week the possibility of just one more. :-)

I'm glad your recovery has been easy Karma. Im so done with being pregnant, but I know once I deliver, I will miss being pregnant too.

 

I went to the doc today and Luke is still pretty comfy in there. Still not dialated and cervix still closed. He's still saying he's pretty big and not sure if I will be able to deliver vag.

 

We did schedule an induction for 11/24. My due date is 11/19, so I'm hoping Luke will get scared and want to come before we have a mandatory evacuation...lol!!

 

I'm still feeling really good. No more cramps and i've been having very few BH.

 

I just had my mom and 2 aunts over and we all cleaned the house. They wanted to do it for me before Luke arrived. It was so nice of them!!

Karma, I'm glad you're having such a good recovery! I can't wait to see more pics of Hannah.

 

Lisa, I can't believe you're so close!!! I'm antsy already, so I can't imagine how you're feeling. That was so sweet of them to clean your house. I think I'll have to mention that to my mom in a few months...lol!

 

I had my 25 week appointment yesterday. I gained 4 lbs. in the past month, which the doctor said is perfect. I'm right on track to gain about 30 (give or take a few), which I'm very happy with. I did the gestational diabetes test and it was negative. I've been lightheaded lately and my cbc showed that I'm slightly anemic, so I need to start taking iron. Other than that, no problems. The baby is on growing on schedule and seems to be doing perfect. I have another appt. in 4 weeks and then I need to start going every 2 weeks. Oh, I went and registered on Sunday which was overwhelming but exciting.

Lisa- That was exactly how I was feeling last week too. Just a few more days. I am really glad that your doctor didn't have you schedule a c-section and will let you try first. After Hannah came out a whole pound more than what we thought she was going to be, I really don't have much faith in estimates. I'm crossing my fingers that he is the perfect size for your pelvis! (Ok, that sounded kind of weird, but you know what I mean) LOL!

 

Lizz- It sounds like you are gaining great! I gained around that amount too. The good news is that if you plan on breastfeeding the weight really does melt away quickly! Yay, for almost going to 2 week appointments. Once you start going every 2 weeks the time really flies by after that.

Karma, CONGRATS!!! Hannah is beautiful! Every time I've been on here lately, I've been holding a baby- and we all know how fun it is to try to get a complete thought out typing one-handed!!! So happy everything went well for you!

 

 

Has anyone heard from Lisahuh.gif I'm wondering if little Luke decided it was time??

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
