Hi ladies, just checking in to see how everyone was doing. CC and dea, I'm still hoping for you guys : ) Congrats on the baby boy Cendy. Ericka, I hope that pain ceases. Just take it easy. As for me, its getting real uncomfortable sleeping at night. I sleep with 4 pillows plus one body pillow. Getting out of bed is a hassel. I'm okay walking around but my goodness! I still love being pregnant though : )

Morning ladies. I hope all is well with you. DLONGEN-Hopefully the MS will go away in a week or so. Mine lasted weeks 6-9 and that was it. It helped taking my prenatal vitamins at night before I went to bed. I am glad you have found some remedies that work for you. Wow 10 weeks! That is wonderful! I am so glad you got to see your little bean. You will be amazed at how much it has changed since the last time you saw her. I love the name Phoebe. You don't happen to watch Charmed do you? My son't name kind of came from that show. Wyatt is Piper's little boy on the show. And she has a sister named Phoebe. You know the father is the one who determines the sex of the baby, so if it is a girl, its all his fault which ever way it turns out. I wish I could do the chord blood banking, but I just really cannot afford it. I have friends who have done it, but I do not know that much about it other than it is expensive but beneficial for your families health in the future. ERICKA-How many weeks are you now? Are you showing a bit? Since this is your first baby, you will have those ligament pains more than us seasoned mothers. I only have that kind of pain if I get up from a sitting position too quickly. Have you experienced any leg cramps in the middle of the night? Eat lots of bananas and this will help ward them off. CC and DEA you are such brave women. I think very highly of you both. I know that you will be great mothers one day. I love the fact that you are not giving up and you are persevering. I promise it will all be worth the wait. You are both in my thoughts and prayers. LASHUNDA-I remember how uncomfortable sleep was in the 3rd trimester. Have you hit that mark yet. Do you have your little girl named yet? Do you have any baby showers planned. Since this is my third child and it is another boy, my work is not throwing me a shower. I thing all babies need their own shower with new things. Do you have the nursery finished? Well ladies, I must go for now. God bless you all! BABY DUST!

hi again all - CC and DEA - you girls are bound to get knocked up staying on this thread! There is something lucky about this bunch! I couldn't believe I got pregnant after I started chatting with you all, when I had been trying for over 3 years. It is highly suspicious. There is some magic dust in these posts. I'm blowing it all right at you two!!!!! Ericka -sorry to hear about all the ligament pain. I haven't had any of that (yet), but wouldn't be surprised if it's still to come. Lashunda - I hear the pillow tricks work really well. My girlfriend told me about this really long, U-shaped pillow that goes around you that makes it comfy. I dread getting huge. I am already huge - I'm 6 ft tall and 200 lbs... already struggle to find clothes long enough, and can't imagine it will be easy when my belly stretches that much more! YIKES! I will definitely invest in those Bella Bands, that help to cover the belly under shirts that are too short or over pants that won't button. Cendy - I don't watch Charmed, but have always like the name Phoebe since I read Catcher in the Rye as a teen. That was Holden's little sister in the book. My name is Dee Dee, so Phoebe kinda has that same light-hearted feeling to it. I hope everyone enjoys the long memorial day weekend coming up. Everyone say a little prayer for CC and DEA on Mother's Day this weekend! DUST!!!!!!!

Good afternoon all. Dlongen, I bought a couple of those bella bands, but I don’t like them too much. Whenever you sit they tend to curl up and you have to adjust them whenever you get up. I don't know if it has to do with me being hippie. I like using them for short periods of time. Cendy, I'll be 16 weeks on Saturday. I'm just now beginning to show. I fit into about half my pants, but I don't think I look quite pregnant yet. I think that the worst part of the ligament pain is over. I still have it every once in a while. I have a dr. appt on Monday to have a pap and some blood tests. On June 5 I have the big sonogram where I find out the sex. I have a question for you ladies. I have a hair appt tomorrow and I'm not sure if it's ok to color it. I've heard both sides, but I was wondering if you guys had any thoughts.

Thanks Cendy and dlongen for the thoughts, well wishes and prayers. I can only speak for myself and tell you that I need them. Unfortunately dlongen, I was on a thread w/ Cendy, Ericka, and Lashunda long ago and Im still not pregnant, but thank you for the positive thoughts! Lashuna, so great to hear from you, sounds like you are all doing well and progessing nicely. Ericka, 6-5 will be here before you know it! Thats always an exciting day!! I have heard its fine to get hair colored while pregnant, when I asked the girl who does my hair thats what I was told.

Hi Girls- Thank you for all the wonderful prayers and wel-wishes. CC: You and I have been here a long time... I was here before we even had #'s in our thread title. Glad everyone is doing well. CENDY: as you suggested, and I agree, I will begin a new thread. See everyone over there! ~~DUST~~
