Hello ladies - I haven't been on this forum for ages and only just remembered that i had joined the Aug board and not just the normal pregnancy board.  Well I am Lauren and am due Aug 3rd.  I have two beautiful children - one little girl aged 4 and a very cute little boy aged 2.  I have no idea what i am having this time around as this has been a very different pregnancy from my last two.  I have had a pretty good time of it so far (nealy 18 weeks) with only a small amount of sickness every so often. This has led to its own problems as I had a MC inbetween my two babies and as i had no real pregnancy symptoms this time around i feared the worse for about 13 weeks.  I then had my NT scan and all was fantastic and measuring on cue with no probs.  I am loving this pregnancy and although I am dying to meet my little one am happy to enjoy the pregnancy (although ask me in another 10 weeks when things start to become more uncomfortable).  I have my next obyn appointment in week 19 and then my big scan in week 20.  We are not going to find out the sex but I think it will kill me not knowing and i may have to do some of my own investigations - so stay tuned as I may need your opinions and thoughts once I get some pics of bub in about two weeks time.

Hope all is well with everyone and that your pregs are going well too - so exciting - anyone know the sex or names of their babies yet?  We have a few picked out but I am reluctant to say them as I am scared i will end up hating them if i say them out loud too much :)

same goes for u  my lil ones keep me  going and i am also working  full time so its always crazy . the funny thing now is that i  dont even  look like i am  pregnant. i have continued to  lose wieght  since finding out even though i  still east as much as my lil stomach allows me too . everyone of my friends laugh and say that i  should make a fertiliy statue of myself lol i just think about  babies or they  think about  babies and  i end up  having them . I count myself very  lucky  cause i know there are many women  who  cant have them as easily as me. Thanks about the name  choice actually a girl  i work with  told about the name Avery the other day before my scan on the 23 and then when  we found she was a girl my  hubby said ok how about the name avery and i never realyl told him about the  name so i guess it was meant to be. Ya i tend to lean towards the more  classical but yet different names considering my  oldest name is  Shayla my  son is  named devin and my lil  girl is name Mckenna.  I like ur name  choices  we had a boy name all picked out  but whos knows  i am not wanting to have any more after this one unless we hit the lottery lol  but tthe Boy name  was going to be Jameson Raymond. I guess i have a  things  for  Irish names lol kind of  funny  seeing as i am  italian lol  well hope u are feeling  well

Wow that is pretty amazing you have still been able to get pregnant but also pretty fantastic. I guess you can just work hard on getting back in shape once this one is born and until then stay healthy and enjoy your little miricle.  It is going to kill me not knowing what we are having but i decided to find out with my last little boy so this time around is my husbands choice.  I love your name it is beautiful - different (as in not very common) but still classic and not out there weird - perfect.  I really love Georga Elizabeth for a girl and Samuel Walker or Adam Walker for a boy - Walker is a family name we would love to keep around.  Hope you have a great day and get a chance to rest with all thats happening in your busy family.

glad to hear that u are doing well. I am jesse and we are due on the same day lol. I am proud mom  of three so this one is number four  for me. I have and 8 almost 9year girl a 5 yr old boy and my lil peanut she  has  just turned two . This pregnacy was complete shock like my last one seeing that i have had my tubes tied after having my son in 06 but come to find out one of my tubes never really healed right  so that has been allowing me to keep getting pregnant lol. also shocking about this time is  i just ahs gastric bypass surgery in july 26  2010 and i have lost 150lbs so far. i was all pyshced about  fitting in to non plus size clothing only to find out that i was pregnant again lol ( i guess just my luck lol )  i have had some trouble with sickness this time around but itshard to to tell if it is due to pregnancy or my surgery  so i am toughing itout. Due to have the  surgery  i have been montiored more closely to make sure that the baby and  me are doing fine. So far so good i am about 17 almost 18 wks . I had scan on the 23 and we found that we are having another lil girl. My hubby was a little disappointed he really wanted another boy  to even out the number but he smile yesterday and and said it must be his lot in life to  be surrounded by beautiful women. Even though he said when  we all start PMSing at the same time he and my son devin are moving out lol . We did pick out her name its  going to  be  Avery Morgan . I dont know how you can go with out knowing man that would kill me lol but i am not a patient person lol  well good luck  keep us posted on how u are doing  who knows maybe  we will  have our babies on the same day if they  stick to their  due date lol
