1. When about are you due?

My origianal EDD was Dec 13 but my doc moved it up to December 5th at my last appt (yay!) I really feel like it will be a November baby though..DS was 5 weeks early and weighed nearly 7 lbs and this baby seems to be following that trend lol

2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? (if you don't know yet, do you want to know?)

A baby girl Yay!

3. Do you have a name picked out?

Tessa Rylie

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy?

Umm...I crave food lol :) Lately it's been Sunny Delight

5. Anything else you'd like to mention!

Everyone please pray that DH will make it here in time for the baby's birth :)

[bellbird425]

1. When about are you due?
25 Dec 2008 so the family joke is that i'm playing santa this year but i'm hoping for earlier... i'll still probably be bigger than the santa suit though!

2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl?
yep i know but dh has sworn me to secrecy..so i've only told one person... i apparently suck at secrecy

3. Do you have a name picked out?
we have a few fall-back names from the short-list when we had alyssa but we haven't agonised about it this time and dh is busy with work stuff anyway

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy?
well in the first few weeks it was cheeseburgers and i was vomitting so much that i indulged myself those a few times a week; since then i've been alternating salty cravings of like olives and corn chips, with weeks of sweet cravings of custard, milkshakes and lamingtons (choc and coconut coated sponge cake fingers)

5. Anything else you'd like to mention!
i dont know if this ticker thing is a blessing or a curse, but i've basically been counting down the days since the start. And i feel huge etc <add in all the regular complaints here>

[jorgies5]

I have been meaning to get a ticker going....

1. When about are you due? February 26th

2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? not yet, but will do everything in my power to find out - our entire family is hoping for a boy to even things out

3. Do you have a name picked out? None, I don't like to think about it until I know the gender - then I only have to pick one name out (which is hard enough)

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? not really, I still have morning sickness - I have craved McDonald's Egg McMuffins and Hotcakes on more than one occasion, though.

5. Anything else you'd like to mention! This is #4 and probably our last, which is a bittersweet feeling.

[mixedclawzz]

I am not preggers but I wish I was!
COngrats to all you ladies who are. And I pray you all have beautiful, healthy babies.

[LibbysMommy]

Jenny - I didn't know you were pregnant!!! Congratulations!!! :)

[jorgies5]

Jenny - I didn't know you were pregnant!!! Congratulations!!! :)

Thanks! It finally happened :thumbup: I guess this my official announcement.

[makabe]

I'm not pg, but we are adopting baby #2!

1. When about are you due? I wish I knew! We know our baby is born...we just don't know who it is yet. I'm expecting we'll be matched between Thanksgiving and Christmas and that the baby will come home in March(ish)

2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? (if you don't know yet, do you want to know?) We did not request gender, but my gut says girl. I'll be very happy either way!

3. Do you have a name picked out? Nothing is definite. Names this week are Henry George for a boy and Susannah (Suzy) Victoria or Eliza Victoria for a girl...

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? Welllll... since I'm NOT pg, I can indulge my cravings for Malibu and pineapple juice. It is kind of like a pg craving since I normally don't like rum or pineapple juice!

5. Anything else you'd like to mention! Just a quick vent that this wait is REALLY start to get to me!!

[amystoffel]

slight chance I might be...I'll let you know this weekend when I take a test :)

[LibbysMommy]

Karen - congrats on adopting another precious baby!! That is so exciting!! My sister and BIL are in the process of adopting right now and I'm so excited to meet my new little niece or nephew when they get here!!


Ooooh how exciting, Amy!! I can't wait to see if you are!!!

[lizzyfizzy]

Sarah...Mason is a great boys name! ;)

yep...i second that! ;)

[Sue Setiadji]

Great thread idea Julie! Congrats to everyone with babies due for arrival in whatever transport medium! This is a precious and exciting time for you all - will pray for safe and happy pregnancies and deliveries for all these Mums and Bubs and those Daddies hoping to be home and around for the arrivals! (thinking of you there Nikki!)

There are still more to check in I think!

[Julie Billingsley]

Yay!! So happy to hear about all these new little sweeties! :) Congrats to each of you and I hope that those of you that are hoping and trying will have that dream come true soon! And a special congrats to those adopting! :wub:

[cheltzey]

1. When about are you due? I'm being induced Sept 16th--2 1/2 WEEKS!!!!!! My actual due date is the 23rd, but we ignore that now.
2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? They're pretty sure it's a girl.
3. Do you have a name picked out? No, but we're leaning towards Averi...haven't even thought about the middle name yet.
4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? No, not really. Just the same stuff I always crave, like ice cream.
5. Anything else you'd like to mention! Did I mention that it's only 2 1/2 weeks away? ;) I'm doing doctor's appts twice a week now since she has an abnormal heartbeat, and it's getting so old! I've got a 3- and 2-year-old, and it's a real pain to have to find a babysitter 2x a week. So I'm SO READY for this to be done!

[mormishmom]

Yea! It's so fun to be pregnant with so many people!

1. When about are you due? December 29th!
2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? 66% sure it's a girl. What is that? LOL We're going this week for a second opinion. I need at least 80% before I start sewing.
3. Do you have a name picked out? I like Sophia Francesca for a girl and if this one ends up being 100% boy at the 2nd U/S then it's Emmett William. (I tried for Edward, but DH ixnayed it. He doesn't know Emmett is in Twilight too! Wahahahaha!)
4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? The last few weeks it has been ice cream, but that's kind of wearing off. I really liked salty stuff for awhile too.
5. Anything else you'd like to mention! Nope:confused:

[~*Liz*~]

I am usually a lurker around here- But what better time to get involved more and know you all more? LOL

1. When about are you due? Jan 15 (although dr. expects it to be toward dec. when the baby comes since I have a record of going early)

2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? (if you don't know yet, do you want to know?) Dont know yet- BUT... We are hoping for a boy- we have 3 girls already and this is our last so... but we will be happy with either for sure!

3. Do you have a name picked out? I am a dork and want my kids to be a STAR- I have a Roxy, and Ana and a Stevie- So this one if girl is going to be Trinity Grace or if a boy Timothy Randall

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? O MY- Beef Jerky, Chex Mix (cheddar) and Sweet Tea (o what a healthy combo! LMAO)

5. Anything else you'd like to mention! Nope- except I am really excited that I FOR ONCE am not having a September Baby ;)

BTW- Mormishmom- Your baby's due on my b-day!!

[lizzyfizzy]

1. When about are you due? March 21st-which was our daughter's original due date-she came a week late.
2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? (if you don't know yet, do you want to know?) Don't know yet, too early, I think it is a girl, our daughter thinks it is a broder.

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? Food, Food, food. That is about it.

2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? (if you don't know yet, do you want to know?) finding out this afternoon at 3:30!!!

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? fried seafood - cannot get enough fried shrimp!!!

i hear ya! my first was born on july 19th, then my second on may 19th...then my third was born on jan25th. too bad he overshot what i wanted his b-day to be by 6 days. :D

[kresta]

Just an update: we're having a GIRL!!!!!!!!!!! :w00t:

We didn't care what we were having, so we would be excited either way. We're thrilled! And I think we decided on a name in the doctor's office (LOL) -- Sadie Brooke.

Lizzy, both of my kids were induced at 38 weeks. My son (1st baby) was induced because he was huge (9.1 at 38 weeks), and my daughter was suspected of being a little large, but turned out fine, still a good healthy weight (7.9 at 38 weeks). But I chose her date because I knew it would be in my 38th week and I thought it would be cool for her to have the same day as her brother. Now that we're having a third, I would love for her to have the same day as her siblings. And maybe I wouldn't even need to induce, we'll see....

[nikkiARNGwife]

Yay congrats!! I love the name Sadie and thought about it for our little one BUT DH calmly reminded me that our last name is Hawkins lol! So yeah...Sadie Hawkins wouldn't have worked I don't think :)

LOVE IT! Such a cute name.

[Teresa]

Congratulations to all you preggers! :) I'm going to be an auntie for the first time within a week or so! My sister is due Sept 4th and they don't know what they're having yet....my suspicion- a boy, but we'll find out soon enough!

[jorgies5]

I am usually a lurker around here- But what better time to get involved more and know you all more? LOL

Welcome Liz! I know if I was in your situation, my husband would be wanting/hoping for a December birthday just so he could get the tax credit!

[Julie Billingsley]

Welcome in Liz!! Thanks for sharing your great news with us! Hope to see you around :)

[Susan Bartolini]

OMGosh Kresta! Congrats on the little girl! And I LOVE the name Sadie. It is too cute! So feminine.

Congrats girl!
Susan

[clearskies]

Yeah for Kresta. Can't believe little Sadie will be like 5 months when I finally get to meet her! (Yup, coming back next summer!)

[kresta]

Thanks for all the congrats everyone! We're really excited!

Yeah for Kresta. Can't believe little Sadie will be like 5 months when I finally get to meet her! (Yup, coming back next summer!)

Hate that it will be that long before we get to see you, but can't wait. I'm sure your little man will be all over the place by then (as if he's not now). :)

[newfiemountiewife]

Congratulations to all of you with new babies on the way! :)

[~*Liz*~]

Welcome Liz! I know if I was in your situation, my husband would be wanting/hoping for a December birthday just so he could get the tax credit!

4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? fresh fruit

Ha-ha! So I was right way back when you posted that thread about snack suggestions.

Congrats to you and Rachel!

[Mel+hergirls]

Congrats to all the expecting mommys!!!!

[ajf9597]

Ha-ha! So I was right way back when you posted that thread about snack suggestions.

Congrats to you and Rachel!

I remember that post LOL!! Congrats to everyone, seems like there are quite the preggies around here :)

[LibbysMommy]

Awwww congratulations, Sarah!!!!! That is so exciting!!

[Sarah8914]

Ha-ha! So I was right way back when you posted that thread about snack suggestions.

Congrats to you and Rachel!

Yes, yes you were. It's easier to say things like that online because you really just "hide" it from people IRL right? :)

Yeah, unfortunately, I'm still hungry and still don't enjoy snacking. But I did get some good ideas from that thread!

[Sarah8914]

Congrats Sarah and Angel! I hope you have smooth pregnancies and happy babies who sleep well all the time. :)

Wasn't it you telling me to use lots of protection on our little night getaway for our anniversary? Yeah... it's a little late for that. :) Almost better when you don't have to worry about the outcome right?

[joelsgirl]

Wasn't it you telling me to use lots of protection on our little night getaway for our anniversary? Yeah... it's a little late for that. :) Almost better when you don't have to worry about the outcome right?

Yes, clearly I should have given you that advice sooner. ;)

[scrapwithnikki]

It's been a LONG time since I have checked in over here! Lots of babies coming soon!! We are having our 3rd!

1. When about are you due? Dec 5 but having a C-section Nov 28 Black Friday!
2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? (if you don't know yet, do you want to know?) Don't know, hoping for another U/S and no crossed legs.
3. Do you have a name picked out? Pretty much but we aren't 100% yet
4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? everything!
5. Anything else you'd like to mention! This is our 3rd (we have 2 girls) and unless God has other plans, will be our last. My feeling is, it's a girl but everyone wants a boy. Oh and this pg has drained all my creativity and therefore I haven't been scrapping or designing much at all.

[becca372]

Ha ha, I missed this thread the first time around (between back to school and all-day-sickness), so I'm adding myself now..

1. When about are you due? well, my first ultrasound (from Weds) says April 24.
2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? (if you don't know yet, do you want to know?) won't know for a while yet, but YES, we will find out.
3. Do you have a name picked out? umm, some possibilities...thinking of Lilliana Lola for a girl, or Bethany Abigail...for boys, we like Micah and Matthew...but we've got TONS of time to change our minds!
4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? Ummm...cheesy bread lately...
5. Anything else you'd like to mention...I *seem* (knock on wood) to be coming out of the all-day sick phase...I hope I really am, and that things keep going well. It's so much fun to find other ladies who are going through this too--and it was such a fun surprise to bump into Sarah (my3hens) over at my preggo board!

[gypsystar]

. When about are you due? May 23
2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? no idea and it will be a looong time before I can find out. I'm already dying to know LOL
3. Do you have a name picked out? no, i have a few ideas floating around but won't starting seriously thinking about it until I know the gender
4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? mostly chinese food

[emilyscout]

DH and I hope to start trying in December. We got lucky the first time with our first baby. HOpefully it will be easy the second time around. I have ulcerative colitis and had to have a colonoscopy to check the state of things. I didn't want to be flaring and then get pregnant. Its best if everything is in working order before adding hormones to the mix as it can sometimes make things worse. So I got the letter today with my results from my scope and there is no active inflammation! So I'm really really excited about that! Just had to share!

[pbumbaca]

WOW! Note to self not to drink the SSD water! Congrats to all the expecting ladies here! It will be so fun to follow along with you all and not be sick myself! :)

[Voodoo_Bryn]

Congrats to all the preggo mommies!!! My two little dudes keep me crazy most of the time, but I think we'll go one last try, we're going to do family balancing ivf... I think I'd fall to pieces if I have 3 boys, and there hasn't been a girl born to DH's family in a few generations. They just don't have girls. sigh.

The gallery is going to be flooded with newborn pics!

[Teresa]

1. When about are you due? March 29, 2009
2. Do you know if it's a boy or girl? Not yet, DH is insisting we find out, I'm on the fence (our first baby)
3. Do you have a name picked out? We've had our girl name picked out since the time my sister was searching for baby names earlier this year, but are having SO much trouble thinking of boy names we like...maybe it's a sign? :)
4. Have you craved anything during your pregnancy? Mostly greasy foods like pizza, meat pizza of all things, normally I'm a cheese girl, but not too often...mostly I just haven't felt like eating much of anything!

[Misty Cato]

Congrats ladies :)

[emilyscout]

Bryn you can have all my pink dust if you send me some of that blue dust! We're hoping for a boy for the next one!!!!!
