hkenny, no you are not the only one, i have heard that there are alot of preggo ladies who are constantly thirsty....i just feel like i cant eat as much because i am drinking so much water...lol

jamie.....i have checked EVERY gender predictor that i can find and they all say GIRL  and although no matter what it is i will be thrilled with a healthy and happy baby...i would prefer a boy....boys are just soooo much easier than girls.  oh well i will recieve the baby that i am meant to have whether it be a boy OR girl....but the u/s tech is about 99% sure there is only ONE

Well my prenatal appointment went well, heard the heart beat, and I guess she is growing so that is good. I got my ultra sound next tuesday and we plan to get a 3d scan so I am pretty excited about that, hopefully she will be in a position so we can get a good face shot, and they can show me the sex of her. The lady last time said she saw that it was a girl, but when she went to go show us the baby she had moved by then. I don't doubt that it is a girl though, it feels a little different then my boys so that is okay.

Yeah, my husband and I got them my husband has crohn's so his immunity system *****, so he got one, and I got one and just decided my kids would get one. My kids are more prone to ear infections though, they don't really get sick too much.

Well, my next prenatal is on the 11th, its kinda scary I have a little over a month left to go. november 15th will be exactly a month until baby comes, I am getting so nervous. I am not usually worried about labor due to I know what to expect due to my boys so that is good. When I was pregnant with my twins I absolutely feared labor from day one, and prayed it would be easy and painless, and luckily that is exactly how it turned out.

Also Joyce, I am pretty sure 186 for your heart beat is pretty good. Mine have ranged from 128 and 160. Supposedly girls heart rates are the ones that are higher, but I know a lady who is having a boy and his heart rate was 170 so.

went to my regular OB yesterday, and when they did the u/s they told me the heartrate which was around 186....is that good?  i think i am going to continue to go to him, as the other doc was ok, but i just didnt care much for him, and so the only thing we will have to really worry about is finding someone to keep the other kids for a few days while i am in the hospital.  but i still have time for that.

jamie....you are braver than i am, i have actually gotten a speech from my kids' pediatrician before because i do not believe in the flu shots.  I have a friend who is a nurse and she informed me that the flu shots doesnt prevent the strain of flu that has killed people.  So i opt out of it....my kids have NEVER had the flu and they are now 6,11 and 14...lol

hkenny....i am not sure about the bloating as i really am not sure if i have ever felt bloated before...lol....not sure what it would feel like, but yesterday when i got home i was sooooo hungry that i ate and ate and felt really full and yucky.  and then i was sooooo thirsty, i am always thirsty....and i drank 3 16oz bottles of water in a 15 min period and so felt waterlogged.....is that the bloating feeling????

anyhow i hope all is well with everyone and i will keep as updated as possible.
