All About baby!!!!

Want to get a list going about our May babies.  I thought we'd write,your name, and age, what # pregnancy, how far along we are, what gender, When your due, Their name.  And anything else that you'd like to share bout baby!!!!  I'll start

My name is Ammanda, I'm 20 years old, this is my first pregnancy.  
I'm 26 weeks and 3 days, with my Son!!
My due date is may 7th
His name is Cole Patrick. We used the middle name of his big brother that passed away 2 years ago, as his first name, and his middle name we got from daddy.
I first felt him move and kick at 19 weeks!  And then at about 25 weeks, I actually felt and seen a hand or foot, move a crossed my belly. It was so amazing!!!

I look forward to reading all about your precious babies!!!!

Just thought I'd introduce myself!  My    name is Jennifer.  I am 25 years old.  I live in beautiful, sunny Phoenix,AZ!!        This is my 3rd pregnancy and 3rd baby.  I am due officially on May 27th!  I am having a girl!  Yay, I am soooo excited!!!  My husband and I are going to name her Julia Doris-Mae!!  Her great-grandma picked the first name and her middle name is a mix of great-grandma's middle name AND her great-grandma's twin sister's middle name!!  A lot of family ties!!  Baby's great-grandma is VERY sick with cancer and may not make it to even see her when she's born!!!  So it was very important to my husband and I to include her in my pregnancy and name choosing!!!  I have so many mixed feelings on this because I want my baby to be born healthy and stay in there a few more weeks but on the other hand I want my husband's grandma (the one with cancer) to be able to meet her great-grandchild!!  :( It is a hard time here!  Oh well that's the circle of life!  One on the way out and one on the way in!!!  On to happy things!  Just wanted to introduce myself and say Hi and you all ended up getting a life story.  LOL

hey guys, Im Tasha, 24 years old. 3rd pregnancy, 3rd baby, 3rd GIRL! lol due may 9th MOTHER'S DAY!!!!!
Not sure of her name yet I am hopelessly stuck, nothing seems right. My 2 girls are 6 and 4 and they are super exited, one wants her name to be Mary, and the other wants it to be Zoe. I feel like I am starting all over, like it has been ages since I held a newborn, and the thought of it sort of makes me nervous because I have forgotten everything! I want to deliver naturally, seemed to go ok last 2 times so there shouldnt be any problems this time around I don't think. I think this will be our last and that makes me sad because I love being pregnant. Good luck to you girls in the remaining short months, and with L&D!

Hi guys,
I am 30 and this is our first child.  My husband and I are having a son.  He is due May
12th.  We are still thinking about names, but have narrowed it down to Nolan Timothy or Logan David.  I felt him move at about 14 weeks.  I didn't feel him kick till about week 19.  Haven't done the sugar test yet, but I do that next week.  I am excited almost to the third trimester.

Hi and congrats on the baby boy!!!!

I really like the name Gavin. i don't know why, I was gonna use it but then i couldn't get the name Cole out of my head, and now I cant imagine any other name for my baby boy!!  And I feel ya on the moving thing. Cole moves constantly but I think its cause I'm so small originally and I'm so far along (27 weeks) I think hes already running out of room. lol.  I'm having my baby shower on March 14th. Ill be 32 weeks.  They say anytime after 7 months is good. but I wanted to wait till after 8 months cause I wanna be huge at my shower lol.  And I'm getting my maternity pictures done at 8 months. 8 months is the good month for everything lol.. Good luck..

Hey everyone :)
I'm brie, 18, and this is my first pregnancy.
I'm due may 14th and it's a boy!!
Me and the bf are stuck on names tho.

Do you guys have any favorite boy names??
I kind of want something unique.

My babyboy moves and kicks soooo much, i think it's the most amazing feeling.

One more question i had, when do you guys plan on having a baby shower, if you decide to have one.
I'm just curious so i know when to have mine.

Take care for now. :)

Hi ammanda,

Im in the UK so it might be slightly different over here-we have NHS care which is free & then there is private medical care-which is different entirely-we decide the whole pathway. We are private-thank goodness!
I just knew it was exactly what I wanted-Im real good with pain-I have endometriosis so I practically suffer labour pains on a daily basis! lol!

I don't mind you asking about my babies-I love to talk about them. Amelie-Hope, Isabella-Grace & Theo James were born on 1st March 2009 at nearly 22 weeks.
They tried so very hard to fight but lost there battle. They were beautiful & just perfect. I know there going to do a fab job of looking after there little brother or sister! :)

Feel free to chat to me anytime-If I can help in anyway I will :)

Thanks girls. I needed something going on in the May forum. lol

Freya- I haven't really talked to my doctor about my birthing plan, he hasn't even asked. When do you usually talk about that?  I'm so sad I'm leaving the second trimester this week, Thursday Ill be 27 weeks!! and don't feel old.   When did you lose your babies? If you don't mind me asking. I'm very sorry.   Water birth seems fun.  Lol all I know is I want the epidural. lol I'm not good with pain.  I think pap smears hurt so I don't know how I'm gonna do this. lol.. But Ill manage.  As long as I get my precious baby boy in the end.


Congrats to all !!!!

Hello,  

Im Freya aged 27, married to Oliver & we live in London UK. Due May 14th.

This is my second pregnancy & 4th child however our three little angels went to a better place as they were born at 22 weeks. We will never forget them, we just wish our new little bundle would have been able to meet them.

First felt bundle move at around 15 weeks, Im now 25 weeks 3 days kicks just doesn't stop :) This has been a great pregnancy so far :) I feel great :) Even got a little something poke out the other day?!

We decided not to find out the sex but we have a few names picked out-Girl Blossom, Aspen, Alba. Or Boys-Elijah, Oscar, Xavier. They will probably all change lol!

A Q for you all-What are your plans for labour?

We have decided to go natural-A water birth if all goes well :)

The other thing could you all add a few numbers to your age-Im feeling old :)

Freya xXx

Hey im 24 this is my 8th pregnancy but my 3rd child (have trouble carrying them b4 12 weeks)
I'm 27weeks 28 thursday they have brought my due date to the 30th of april but im sticking with u girls .
We didnt find out what we are haing so its a suprise her name will be Pheonix Anne for a girl or Lane Xavier for a boy
First felt bub move round 14 weeks they say the more u have been preggy the sooner u feel it it felt like butterflies no it feels like im being tenderised from the inside lol i love the feeling of being pregnant id love to do it again but this one is our lucky last we have been through to much emotionally to have anymore.
I have bubs hospital bag and mine all ready to go because i started braxton hicks at 20 weeks and both my other 2 tried to come early so were expecting this one to be the same.I really dont wanna wait lol i just wanna meet my bundle of joy :) but to be safe bub better just stay put for now...

my name is rachel, im 19 and this is my second pregnancy, but will be my first baby.
im 23 weeks 3 days with a girl
and her name is ariana grace (we changed the spelling)...i kinda stole my aunt's name, she named my cousin arianna, butttt ive only seen my cousin twice in my whole life so its not really a big deal. and i asked my aunt if it was okay haha. i haven't decided if she's gonna take her dad's last name or mine.
i felt her kick for the first time at 16 weeks but i didn't know it was her until i was 17 weeks and they were a little stronger.. i haven't felt any hands or feet yet, but the other day i did feel what felt like something dragging across the inside of my belly pretty lightly....dunno what part of her that was lol. but i loved it.
im doing her nursery in pink and browns, with espresso furniture, and were buying her bedding on tuesday!
