Calling All Woman of Strength!!! New Thread 3-18-11

[dnikki0928]

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.
A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.
A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.
A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.
A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.
A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

Wow, redoing the thread again....I remember when I joined you gals there were about 4 on the new mommy list :-) Boy has it grown!!! Congrats to all you mommies and all you ladies with BFP's!!!  I'm just recouping at home - I got home this past Monday finally :-) I missed the kids like crazy but I slept half the time I was away. I'm feeling pretty good actually. Just sore and I have to remember to take it easy and no bending or lifting (which is hard having a 13month old...). I have a post op check on the 25th with my doctor here...I hope all of you are doing well and I'm sorry I've been away, I'm busy or busy sleeping lol!! I do check in frequently, just haven't posted - I hope all of you are doing well!!!

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

Bfromthed- I'm glad your husband is coming around! I truely hope you guys can work things out, I just can't imagine how you feel right now! But keep up that awesome attitude you always have! :) Good things will come your way!!!

AFM: We had our baby boy last Wednesday! :) Baby Sean was born 7/27/11 at 6 pm! He weighed 7lb, 15 oz and was 21 in long. He's SO cute, I just love him so much!! Addy is doing awesome as his big sister! She's already very protective of him, LOVES to hold him & kiss him! It's the cutest thing ever! :) He's a great baby, and a big eater! Breastfeeding is going much better this time around, probably b/c I know what to expect since I've been thru it before. I will get pics up soon, I do have some on FB as I know a few of us are friends on there! :) Hope everyone has a great day!!!

luvkayln- BIG BOY! I am hopeful that his lungs are ready to go. I can't wait for updates and pics!

Baby C had her 1 year check-up today. She is in the 50% for height at 29" tall and in the 70% for weight at 22lbs10oz.... she also got three shots :/

She is totally off of the bottle and is only drinking whole milk now!

We have our 34 week check-up tmw. It should be a pretty boring appointment.

krichar, Thank you for your kind words :)

Update: We had our 36 week check up last Thursday. Baby measured 38 weeks, so they had me do an ulstrasound to see if there was too much fluid, to check on his kidneys, etc to make sure he's developing ok. Turns out he literally measures 38 weeks! He weighs 7lb, 12 oz already!! BIG BOY!! :) My dr was concerned that he would be too big for me, and the 2 possible worst scenerios could be either his head would come out but his shoulders would be too big so they would have to break one to get him out, or his head would be too big to come down the birth canal and they would have to do an emergency c-section, and obviously i don't want ANY of those options! So next Wednesday we go in for an amnio to see if his lungs are ready, and if he passes we're getting induced that day! I've gotten 2 rounds of steroids the past 2 days to help mature his lungs, so we will see! :) I'm super excited and so ready to meet our baby boy!!!
