Yippee, Katie is done lurking!! So glad, my partner in work-shirking! If it IS a boy baking in here, you are going to have to help me! I have no idea about little boys.. yikes! But I would be so thrilled either way...

dyk -whoops, guess this is not that thread! Such a reflex!

6 days are going to go by fast, since 2 of them are the weekend and today is almost over. You really only have 3 days, how's that? Now I'm giving you the advice I keep getting: stop POASing! This IS going to work out! :)

Coach Jenn, you are at your appt right now- yay! I hope it's a great one- I can't wait for the update.

Jen-ay, congrats on showing the nausea fairy the door.. welcome to the honeymoon tri. You can send her here (for a short stay) if you want..

Alisha, good to see you!

Sandi, what did you end up eating? the grill idea would normally be a great one, but honestly, I think I'll start mooing if I eat one more piece of meat..

Here is some awful news - I just found out our seats are going to be moved around. Right now I sit in the corner with my back to the window and no one next to me so can ivillage to my heart's content. I'm going to be moved to the middle of the floor w/ my back to our CEO, sitting next to another sales guy. Good God, I am going to HAVE to find a new job asap!!!!

Nothing else to report except that my pants are cutting off my circulation and I really need a nap..

Thanks for all the well-wishes for Carter, everyone!


Jenn's appt was at 2pm, and it's only 2:30pm in our neck of the woods (we're both in Washington state), so hopefully we'll be hearing from her soon!


I am with you girls on the hungry, but nauseous, craving something, but not sure what, thing! Everyone keeps asking if I'm craving anything, and I'm like "Food?" Most of my nausea is after I eat, but it doesn't stop me from stuffing myself silly. Oh well!


Heard the h/b again last night and this morning. I've decided not to try it at night anymore. It takes way longer to find when my tummy is bloated and/or full. In the morning, on an empty stomach and bladder, I find it almost immediately! I love, love, love that reassurance. My only warning to anyone thinking of renting, don't stress if you don't hear it right away. I highly recommend waiting to try it until after your doctor has found it with his/her doppler, and can show you the right place to look. I lost a lot of sleep and had some pretty scary dreams when I couldn't find it on my own (pre-appt) last week!


Hope you are all having a great day!

Hi, all ! I'm so happy that today was filled with some good news from Coach Jenn! Our blinkies are working, folks - woohoo!!


Ok, so I just finished catching up on all the posts and I am laughing my rear off at Leslie and Tara talking about quitting their jobs in the face of threatened IVillage time!!

Good morning, everyone! We are one day further- yay! I'm officially 5 weeks today, goody. Leslie, you are insane re the cleaning! But I'm sure your house looks great. Glad to see the y'all brought out (I am also a southern girl, ya know).. how anal will you all think i am if i point out, however, that the apostrophe should be between the y and the all, since it's the 'ou' that's getting left out? Pretty damn anal, I'm sure! :)

Well my excuse is that I got like 1 hour of sleep total last night and am so tired today that I feel slightly ill, so I'm persnickety. I almost called in sick, but I've got to be late Friday because of my appt (woo-hoo!) and I'm on vaca next week.. (even bigger woo-hoo!)

Here are my latest symptoms (besides not being able to sleep, some major bouts of irritability, and continued bloating): I think my boobs are finally getting a teensy bit bigger! At least, they felt heavier today in the shower. Hormonal crying: we started watching a Dutch film last night called the Twins about 2 girls who were separated after their parents died. I cried so hard at different parts that I had to pause it.. Also feeling some cramping or pulling in the low part of my belly- it's strange. I hope baby bean is really growing and i have a shot of hearing/ seeing something on Friday!

big xxx and ooo, chiquitas- who's next?

Holy crap, Leslie--you're so right about the apostrophe in "y'all"...I was really tired last night, and as the self-proclaimed Grammar and Spelling Queen of Lower Alabama, I am red-faced over such a silly error.

I thought mine were getting with the program a few days ago, but they must have decided to take a break on the ballooning progress...
