  1. Hey girls! Hocker-twins, again! Wow that is incredieble! Lucky you. Can't wait to see how you do. Juno- i did not have a hard time with the orange drink. I thought it was good, isn't that weird! Raynie- i have that same vagina feeling like she is about to fall out! it stinks. Bladder is feeling tons better. I was not catherized but i asked for it but they would not b/c they did not want to stir a hornets nest!! I was begging for it, i hurt so bad and was tired of peeing every 10 minutes!! Yes, 10 minutes! It was crazy! Since I have been home I have been trying to tie up all the lose ends so that way when she comes it won't be as crazy. Going to take a nap. Hope everyoneis having a great weekend!
  2. I'm back! I am been in the hospital for the last 2 dasy due to the UTI. I feel tons better but just going to take it easy. Let's hope I do not get another one before the baby comes. Candice_ That sucks, I am not even going to tell you to hang in there becasue I know you have got to be miserable! Know I am thinking about you! Jill- COngrats! I amhappy for you! Raynie_ How are you feeling? Juno- Have yall told anyone yet?
  3. nursey pics so sorrythey are huge but at least I got them up
  4. Ok lets see if this works. If it does I will post pics if the nursery!
  5. Candice you are in our thoughts! Raynie- the fetal fibernectin test is to see if I am going into labor. They hook me up to the fetal monitor and then do a vaginal swab to test for some hormone that your body produces within 2 weeks of going into labor. SO far I have been negaitive. I have to do this every Friday until the baby comes. I really thought this baby was coming tonight. I have been cramping again all night that is why I am posting at 4:40 in the moring! Then I got up twice thinking I was going to throw up. I wonder if it is the bladder infection? I go back to my bladder doctor at 8 this morning. I am with you on the clothes. I am wearing a 2x maternity but 3x bottomes. I could really go to some 3x tops b/c my belly is huge. SO wish i could post pics. I took a really good one this weekend! Raynie how fare a long are you now?
  6. Holliwagz- I lost 50pounds and got pregnant with one shot. The lap band doctor said that while you are losing weight you are really fertile. I guess so b/c I wanted another baby but did want to wait until I lost more weight but God wanted me pregnant in June so that is what happened. When are ready just go at it and give it to the Lord! I am 33 weeks pregnant now with a second girl!
  7. Hey all...we just got home from hubbies vasectomy. He is wonderful and does not remember a thing!!!! I am doing good, glad it is over. I have my fetal fibernectin test this afternoon and a bladder treatment at 2:30 so I have to go back to the hospital when I really want to go to sleep! How is everyone?
  8. niecy- My first daugheter measurerd big like that and she was born at 35 weeks. She was healthy as could be and ready to come. SO look at it like that, your precious bundle could be here ealier than you think. Raynie- wish I could see that baby story. I cringe for that lady. i hope she sees it and does a self check. How is everyone feeling? I pray Candice is better. Bless her heart, I feel so sorry for her. I don;t go back to the doctor until the 31st but I am so ready to be over the pregnant part. Is anyone else. The weight is piling on now! I feel yucky and big!!!!! 33 weeks pregnant and counting!!!!
  9. Hey all! Glad to hear everyone is good. Raynie-I so want to be you! Love it that you have racked up! Lucky girl! Jodi-That sucks that they let you go. That happened to a good friend of mine. It stinks. Ihad a hard weekend. I was having cramping all last week. They sent me to the hospital Friday for a Fetal Fibronectin test so see if I was going into labor. Turned out to be negative but they went ahead and gave me a steriod injection on Sunday then again yesterday so if the baby decides to come early then she will be ready! Turned out the cramping was a UTI. See I knew my body and knew something was not right. My doctors nurse really hurt my feelings by saying that what I was feeling was "normal" but turned out she was wrong. I can't decide if I want to say something at my next visit on the 31st. Or just pick my battles. Is insomina killing anyone else. I have been up since 2 am and I know what is going to happen. I will get sleepy around 7 when my 2 year old daughter is ready to get up. Oh well better get use to sleepless nights again!
  10. Hey all! Been out of town. After the baby shower i went homewith My mom and they don't have internet up on the mountain in Tennessee. yes, it is that bad. Anyway, I loaded up. This shower was way more fun then my first. They first you get all the stuff you need but this is just all the fun cute stuff. I so want to send pics but don't know how to get them on here. I have so tried. Any ideas. I probably won't have to buy diapers for the first 6 months, she will never wear all the clothes and won't forget her name. Everything is monagrammed. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!! Cute cute cute!!!! My firned made me an angle wreath. Which is all pink bowas with a brown S hangin in the middle. Love it. It hangs on her door. I asked her to make My oldest daughter one!! I promise to do pics as soons as I figure out how!
  11. Raynie_ Am I too lade back. I dye my hair. I ahve dyed it 3 times since I have been pregnant and dyed it with my daughter. If you hate it, do it. You will so be fine! I promise! I hae not planned on taking the nurses a gift but plannes on getting my doc a gift. Any suggestions. She is the best. I have gone to her for over 10 years. Love her!!!! I am so excited about tomorrow I can't stand it! I will let yall know how it goes!!!!
  12. Shy- i vomitted like crazy the first trimester and now it is back. I just try not to but so far I am fine. I only have 2 cc's in my band so that helps. Raynie-My friends are throwing me a shower this SAturday. I am so excited. I was like you and told them not to b/c it is my second but they insisted. Now I am glad b/c I am so excited. It is a diaper shower. I have thrown 2 of them for my friends who are expecting second babies. Just a reason to get together and celebrate a baby and friends! We really don't need a reason my friends and I try to get together monthly for girls night out! I have tried to post pics..anybody have an idea how to do that???
  13. Raynie- Thanks for your prayers. I will need them. It is hard to breastfeed but I love to do it. AND it makes the weight roll off me. Yeah, I am that vain!!! Candice- Are you just miserable? Post picks of the baby room. I will try to post pics of our room!! Angie- I was not near goal. I lost 50 them wham got pregnant. I have gained 30 pounds so far and I am sure will gain more b/c that is what I did with my daughter the last few weeks. I will lose it all again then some. Good luck to you!!!
  14. Ryanband-You will be fine. GO to the link that was given to you there are several of us pregnant. I had to be unfilled due to the first trimester I was so sick but it all workes out. I will get filled back up 6 weeks after the baby and the weight will roll off me. Please keep us informed on your pregnancy!
  15. Heck yeah! We are all about a double snip and clip. We have 2 friends that have vasectomy babies and I don't want any surprises! Insurance pays for it 100% so we are like "Let's go for it!" I will have a c-section so once the baby is out they will just snip and burn the sew me up. I will not have to stay in the hospital any longer. We are really excited, isn't that weird. Juno_ Don't feel silly. I found out at 3 weeks. I was still a week and a half from my period and the test was very positive!! I know you are very excited. I know you are about to bust at the seems. We waited 2 weeks and it was killing me!! Went for my bladder treatment and there was blood in my urine. No signs of infection but the blood just shows sign of a flare up. IC is no fun!! Raynie- I am with you on the diet. I was consdiering doing that Alli. Anyone know anything about it?? Guess I can't do that if I am breastfeeding though!!!!!
  16. Juno- Congrats on the pregnancy. Keep us posted on how you are doing. How far along are you? CAndice- Are you hanging in there?
  17. We have been so worried about you! Glad you are all ok. I am doing well. We have got the baby room all ready. I love it! My husband painted it with some friends of ours and it looks so girly! I am 30 weeks now almost 31 weeks and I am so tired. I am trying to eat iron rich food but I am so tired. This morning we got up at 6:30 then my daughter and I laid back down at 10. Good thing she went down with me or I don't know what I would have done. Raynie I hear you about the $$$$$$$$, We are wondering if we are going to have to live on beans and rice the next year just to pay for the baby and all the expenses. Glad this is our last one we can't afford to do it again!!!!Mu husband is having a vasectomy on the 25th and they are doing a tubal on me the day of delivery, which I pray will be here soon!!!!
  18. Congrats Jadasmommy! That is awesome that you were able to keeo your band filled that just gives you a leg up to losing weight after the baby. Yey for you!
  19. Candice- i am still taking it easy. I go back to the docotr on the second of Jan to see what the doctor says. I passed my glucose test which is great. I failed with my first daughter so I am pumped. I am so with you about ready to start our weightloss journey again. Really looking forward to that. Other than that feeling really pregnant I am great. My husband and best friend painted my daughter's room Friday night it is so cute! Can't wait to get her furniture in there. My daughter loves to go in there. I was 5 weeks early with my daughter so you will be fine Candice. God will take care of you and your baby. They told me to be ready to go into labor after Feb 6th. iwill be 5 weeks and that is whenI had my daughter. Please keep me posted even after the baby we can support each other lose the baby weight!!!!! i am worried about Raynie- has anyone heard from her??? Nikki- I am had severe heartburn like that with my first daughter. I drank mylanta like it was water! Have you tried that and taking a pepcid every day. That is what I survived on. I had to eat bland bland food. With this pregnancy it has not been that bad on days of heartburn instead of canstantly. Bless your heart I know it is not fun!!!!!!!
  20. Hey! I was banded Dec 20th 2006 then got pregnant June 2007. I had unfil from 3.8 to 2 cc's b/c I was so sick the first trimester. I have gained 30 pounds and am at 29 weeks pregnant. Just wanted to put my info out there for anyone who was wondering. Wish everyone well! Raynie- Where are you? What is your baby? Boy or girl? Let us knw what is going on!!!!!!!!
  21. Ok, I know everyone is busy with the holidays but wanted to give everyone an update! i am on semi-bedrest. I have all the signs of preeclampsia (spelling?). My mom has had my daughter since wed and I miss her bunches. I am going first thing in the morning to stay with them for the weekend! My IC has flared back up so I am back into the bladder treatments! I am 27 weeks so I am just taking it easy because I do not want to harm the baby at all! Hope everyone is well and ready for the holidays!!!!!!
  22. Hey everyone!!!!!! Hope all is well. Glad to hear you went to the bathroom Candice! I know that feels better. Well do give a short version. Back pain gor worse. Not bladder issues and trip sto the chirproprater and think it is a slipped disc! Yuck. Nothing they can do til lafter the baby is here. Can't pick up more than 5 pounds. My daughter does not understand that. She is 2. Lord how much longer do I have??? Rayni- get the pillow from Khols. It is great. Shiteasu is what it is called. GREAT!!!!!!! Jodie-Congrats on the girl! That is what I am having, again!!
  23. Thanks candice for the bladder info. I do have a bladder condition called Interstital Cysitiis (IC) have considered that the pain was bladder related. I was doing bladder treatments during my first trimester but my flare up has subsided so I have not seen the urologist since then. I might go back b/c I ma sitting on a heating pad everynight!!! Which does seem to help. Even bought a massaging pillow from Khols that actuially kneads you. Yes, it is fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone should have one! Candice let us know how your doc appt goes? Raynie_ how is your back pain? Go get you a pillow! Don't you find out this month what you are having?
  24. Candice_ How are you? How did the doc appt go? Let us know? I am now 25 weeks and having really bad back pain. Is anyone else? I am annoying my self I am so bitchy!! My poor family!!!!!
  25. Candice-yes try the enima. I did not go to the bathroom for 7 days. Went to the doc and had to go home and do an emema. I had a blockage. Now I do Benfiber 3 times a day and try to eat more fruit. Constpation is not fun! Let us know how you are! Thanksgiving was not good to me. I gained 5 pounds but thank god have already lost it. I am hoping it was fluid from all the salt! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
