Well, 1st things 1st I go to the doctor November 29th to get a ultersound to see how big my baby is and if he has enough water. My doctor said last week he thought my boy was very big..he sure feels BIG to me. I'll be 36 weeks Nov.29th. My son who's 10 1/2 was induced at 36 weeks because he had little water my daughter who's 8 1/2 was induced at 37 weeks for low water. Chances are good this one will have a water shortage to. My son was 7 pounds 1 oz at 36 weeks he had to be pulled out with forceps and a suction cup. The doc dose not want to let this boy get too big he said 8 pounds he's out unless low water then they will do it before then. Not 100% sure but, there is a good chance i'll have my baby the end of november if not then i'ld say the 1st week in December.
My bf and i just got a apartemt together. Yeah we waited till the last min. We don't move in till December 2ed I sure hope the baby waits till after we move to be born. I'm glad and sad about it, I love living alone, in my own place, i did not want to give up my own space. I've done the live in boyfriend thing before nothing good to come from that. We went and got a new couch and kitchen table it is to be delivered to the apartemt Dec.2ed. It will be nice to have new stuff i've NEVER ever got to move and get new stuff at the same time "thank GOD he has great credit". My credit is total crap.
So if i'm missing for a while you can assume i'm moving and counting down the last weeks/days before the baby is born.
My grandfather died on holloween he went peacefully with my grandmother holding his hand. I still don't feel much one way or another about that. I am glad he was with family and did not suffer. Sucked it happend on holloween thou i was at my grandmothers with my kids they were all dressed up IN coustoms just got back from trick or treating and grandmal walked in and was crying and told them grandpa went to heaven. The kids have not talked about it at all they knew he was dying. I think they would have been very hurt had it been grandmal they like her better grandpal was grumpy and mostly mean to them.
Hey zerogirl things are really coming together for you, so good to read. Sounds to me like you will be having your little baby boy before you know it!
My boyfriend's sister's baby is doing really well, she's still in an incubator but is out of intensive care and growing really well, she is still tiny...well she is still only 8 months, but she's cute!
Let us all know how things go, though understand with eveyrthing that is about to happen to you..... that you will be very very busy!
Good luck and take care xx

Hi Zerogirl, I'm soooo jealous! You're gonna be holding your baby so soon! Well, I must remember not to wish this time away, coz I know my world will be turned on it's head as soon as my baby arrives. It's good that he's well grown. My girl seems to be a bit of a lump too! I have to go back for another scan in a few weeks. They seem very keen on doing lots of scans, but I don't mind because it means I can get a glimpse.
And you'll have your body back! Have to start with those sit ups and crunches... I was looking at photos today, taken when we were on our hols, when she was conceived, and I can hardly believe that sexy girl with the thigh boots and mini skirt, with curves in all the right places is me. Ha! I was f***ing gorgeous - no wonder he wanted to make love to me 4 times a day! I'd take sex kitten over fertility goddess any day!!! Oh to have my skinny waist back... A friend of mine had her baby 4 weeks early, and a week after the birth, she was back into her size 8's, stick thin. She explained her skinniness by saying she didn't go full term. That's so depressing coz I'm 24 weeks on Friday, and I'm fatter than she was at 36 weeks!! And we used to swap clothes... I'm just shaking my head at the unfairness of it all!!! I was reading a book the other day, and it did my soul good. Said that all this trying to limit your weight gain to 20- 25lbs is ridiculous. Told me to eat all I want, and put on 40lbs if that's what happens - as long as the baby gets all the nutrition it needs and is healthy, there's no medical evidence to suggest porky mums have harder labours unless they were significantly overweight before the pregnancy. But I will be skinny again, mark my words!!! It's not surprising we put on loads of weight - by the time we give birth we have 16 pints of blood in our bodies, our hearts are twice the size they used to be, our bodies put down fat around the hips and belly to protect our cargo, our breasts are enormous, not to mention the 8lbs of baby and the placenta. And if you ate everything on the list of things the experts say we should be eating every day, we may as well throw out the dinner plates and install a trough in the kitchen!
Anyway Zerogirl, wishing you luck with everything. Take care chicken!!!
love

Zerogirl, you sound well. I was glad your post was first thing I saw.
There of course men on this board (Booooooooo) I am s just kiding. Hey, I am from Philly. We boo Santa Claus, and throw batteries at him. We even boo cute little babies they put up on those giant screens at Phillies games. Phanavision.
People yell "Boo the baby". LOL That's how we do here/
Anyway, stream of consciousness again. The man thing. You may not want to hear about birthing process, but DRY BIRTHS now that's a treat. Nothing like a knitting needle inserted to break your water. Hope the lack of the water don't involve that.
Yu're doing so well, and I am way proud of you. You, Zerogirl are my Herogirl. We'll look forward to updates, and thanks for letting us know what's up.
BABIES. I don't know, but seems there's two on the way. Like if I post will I get preggers? LOL Impossible like they sing in Cinderella.
Take care of yourself PLEASE. It has to be a tad difficult with two other kids, but I know my Herogirl got it going on. Best wishes with your sonogram coming up. I say make your ten year old do all the diaper changes. LOL I've been thinking of you and your kids, and the baby to come. New day, new week, and a surely new life. Keep trucking, Sister. Milk this pregnancy so everyone waits on you. You deserve some pampered time.
You got me excited for you, and my prayers have been flowing for the baby and your childrend. Best wishes, Herogirl. Ya done good. Real good. Hold your head up. and be a proud Mama. Not long to go now.

Wahyoops........almost forgot......it seems your grandpop's passing is bothering you still.......hey, like you said......what can you do......what can you feel?
In regards to the Halloween Trick Or Treaters......and your poor Gram.....my dad died CHRISTMAS MORNING!!!!!!!!!!! The paramedics paddeling him even had tears in their eyes........my mom's grandpop was murdered the eve of Easter...........he was in his german social club which was right down the block......all German people who had come to the States, and socialized.....punks came in, and held everyone at bay with shotguns.....well they then went back to where the ladies socialized......back in the day women had a seperate entrance to taverns, and social clubs, and bars......one of the gun toting punks ripped the jewelry off a woman, and pushed her on the floor.
My greatgrandpop had enough after that, and got up off the floor as they were instructed to lie still......he went to knock the crap out of the kid, and as he came toward him saying "You lousy punk leave these women alone" the dude blew him away.......he raised my mom....she had no father.....her Pop was her world.......Easter Sunday morning she knew something was wrong when she got up......people were in the house crying......she was instructed to put on her new outfit, and would be going to Church.
To this day even when she says "NO" I do believe losing her beloved Pop and his tragic death has effected her.
Couple that with my dad also young having a massive heart attack on Christmas morning and dying in front of us......I absolutely think no matter how stoic, and strong she acts it kills her inside.......I mean they still always had Easter........we still have Christmas.......both because that's the way these men would want it to be........so I can certainly empathize with you and your poor Gram seeing kids all dressed in costume, and giggling while her husband just died......it sucks, bad.......it really does.
O.K. another ME ME ME post.......just wanted to share though that life does go on, and basically people who aren't in that situation just keep their merriment afloat as we mourn.....that is LIFE, Herogirl, and a new life you are bringing into this world will be embraced.....we have to keep going.
I'm sorry about your Grandfather....I know you were weirded out you didn't feel you should have FELT more......that's your onw grieving and how you deal with things........it's O.K........you take care of YOU, and your children.....they need you.......and we need you.
