I totally understand the emotional roller coaster. I was NOT thrilled at being pregnant when I already had an infant in diapers :tongue But you adapt and then you are so happy when the baby comes out healthy :D

Oh, and one other little tidbit - lol - if I believe in old wives tales, with the heartbeat being in the 160's I'm having a girl LOL Heartbeats in the 120's to the 150' are "supposedly" boys. :p

Doc said this is like flipping a coin - it's right half the time, so wait for the ultrasound LOL :lol:

I had been told that old wives' tale when pregnant with Jon..... :lol:


It is wonderful that your doc is so supportive. What a blessing!

hey Aly, good to hear all is going well for you and the family.

I got your FB message. I did not receive the one you mentioned. I didn't open yours either. I just read it in the preview mode. I would be a bit leery of messages like that.

Hey Missy! Nice to hear an update, sounds like things are ,moving right along. So sorry to hear about your friend's loss :(

I can not even begin to describe the shock that I felt when I found out that i was pregnant with our now 8 yr old princess. My youngest was 6 1/2 when she was born! But she was a huge blessing and a very specical girl :love

You are always in my thoughts :hugs

thanks for the tidbit. A good friend of mine sent that to me, so that's why I wasn't sure what to believe. I actually had one person reply to me and ask if I was stupid.

Actually that person "replied to all" I got it too. But I just deleted that one as well. I didn't recognize the name.

Have a nice visit. The fort your brother is at is not far from where my aunt is. Actually she is east of Springfield. A beautiful area.

Hey darlin', isn't it great when you hear the heartbeat for the first time?!?

Don't feel bad about the emotion rollercoaster....your last pregnancy was rough and your family has been under so much stress lately that it is understandable for you guys to be wigged out. I think everyone goes through the emotional rollercoaster when they find out a baby is on the way....I know I did :lol:

So, are we placing bets on the sex??? I'm guessing girl....I'm with you on the heartbeat thing...my DD's was way higher than my son's.

Well, I'm betting it's going to be a BOY because we're all hoping too hard for a girl. LOL (but still hoping for a girl!) truth be told, I'm worried I'm going to get my hopes up for a girl and be disappointed if they say boy. Won't know until April, though.

But, regardless, I didn't pass up a deal on some nursery decor yesterday at the local Browse and buy - pink and brown with hippos, elephants, giraffes, and koala bears. It was a 6 piece set - curtains, diaper stacker, blanket, mobile, and wall decor - originally priced at $20 but since it was a pink sticker item, I got the WHOLE set for 99 cents!!

Am I supposed to tell ya'll what the sex is when we find out???
