This is a follow up to a message posted @ 2 weeks ago. At 6.2 weeks i
had a transvaginal u/s and only saw the gest sac. My dr advised me to
come back in 1 week. At 7.3 weeks, now there is a gest sac and a yolk
sac, but no heartbeat. My gest sac has grown 2 mm in past week. Dr

Gwendolyn's naming ceremony was yesterday, and went beautifully, so I
thought I'd post a quick update.
My sister and her dh showed up Friday night, and since we still hadn't
finalized a name, they helped us out.  We finally settled on Ganit

What are the best and where do I get them?  I am partial to hip huggers in
boyish styles (the ones that look like tiny shorts) but i doubt they have
'em yet.
Thanks!

As I've mentioned in my other posts I've been told I have pre-eclampsia/PIH.
With that came an OB, bed rest, NSTs, weekly blood work, 24hr collections,
daily BP monitoring, US, being told my homebirth was OUT the window,
induction would be necessary right after 37 weeks etc etc

I've just found out that I'm pregnant very early stages still, only
about 5 weeks. This is my fourth baby, but came very unexpectedly, I
had my tubes tied 12 years ago. My youngest is 14. I'm still getting
used to the idea, but am thrilled :)

Today I had an appointment at the Dr.  I am about 16 and a half weeks and we
got to hear the heartbeat.  That is the coolest thing, I even got all
emotional (see teary) in the office.  My Boyfriend also went to hear teh
heartbeat and was pretty impressed with it.  Now, only 23 weeks ...

I don't have time to post much since am sooooooooo busy with baby Rachel :-)
but just wanted to mention a few things to update.
You know I was SO worried about visitors and germs? I have not had ONE
thought about germs and people have been really good and respectful. Also--

Introducing Quinn Alexander Schepers born May 7 at 3:38 PM.  He was 8
lbs, 1 ounce and 19.5 inches long, my labor lasted from 8:30AM by AROM
and as I arrived at the hospital 5cm dialated and 90% effaced, it wasn't
a very long labor (8cm-delivery with an epidural).  It lasted a ...

I am packing my bag for the hospital today. It's hard to pack because I am
in week 36, and this bag will probably sit here for 5 weeks. I keep thinking
I will want something that I am packing away. Also I don't want to haul a
bunch of stuff to the hospital- I've been reading bag ...

I am getting the feeling that they are a waste of time. My wife is 21+5 and
we have gotto go for our fourth ultrasound tomorrow. The first scan at our
local hospital they implied that the baby had an abdominal wall problem and
downs, so we got refered to the fetal medicine unit at a ...

enjoy :)

When I have time I will be watching for your posts. My baby seems a lot like
Morgan in regards to her wanting the breast, and crying for hours- I can't
figure out how to get her to stop crying but the breast always works and she
can want it 24/7.

Did your carpel-tunnel go away after you had Morgan??
