Jenn~ Finn is adorable! Love all that hair! You're right~ he'll need a haircut soon! My 20-month-old son has only had his cut twice! Kat~ Ashlyn is SUCH a doll! What a great picture! Amy

Kylie Elaine was born today at 7:19 a.m.! She decided she didn't want to wait until Friday for our scheduled c-section! She is absolutely beautiful- although I'm sure I'm a little biased! She weighed 7 lbs., 10 oz. and is 20 1/2 inches long. I'll try to post some pix soon! So excited for the others who are getting so close! Amy

Margie~ Glad to hear that it's just something "normal"! When are you due again?

We're not sure about names yet. Most likely her middle name will be Elaine, because that's mine, my mom's, and my grandma's. We liked Kylie when pg with Austin, but not so sure DH is sold on it! Now we'll really focus since we know for sure she's a girl! I've already started shopping for PINK!!!! I had a $100 Gymboree gift card left from one of my showers for Austin, so my shopping cart is full! Amy

The baby cooperated today!!! IT'S A GIRL!!!!! We are SOOOO excited! Finally some motivation to get the room going!!! Amy

Congrats Kat! She is so beautiful! Hoping I'll get to get some pink too! Angel~ Zariah looks so cute with her earrings, and I agree, her lips are adorable! Andrea~ Hope you're a Mommy soon!! I found out I have gestational diabetes again this week. The positive thing about it, is that I will have another U/S!! Hopefully the baby will be spread-eagle this time so we'll know what we're having! It's very strange still not knowing! It's hard to focus on getting the room cleared out and a name when we don't know the sex! I'll have an U/S in 2 weeks! Amy

I used them, and mine stunk too! After they were all set out though, you couldn't notice it. I think it was mainly when they were all bunched together! I loved my placecards! Amy

Any new updates for us So many things are driving me crazy right now! Thanks!

Angel~ Zariah is beautiful! Such a cute little doll she is! Kat~ I can't believe you're still here! I can imagine how uncomfortable you must be, since I'm already feeling a little uncomfortable! Hope she decides to come tonight!

Congrats on the boy, Margie! We had an appt. today, and Kevin was trying to "buy" me another U/S since our baby didn't cooperate last time! They weren't going for it!!!

Congrats Amy! So glad everything is going well! Regarding H1N1- I've been paranoid about this since August when I started hearing about the deaths of pregnant women. I'm a 4th grade teacher, so I'm especially scared because of that! Anyway, I've decided to get it~ and my basic reason is that I would rather have (and raise and love) a baby who was affected by the vaccine (although I don't feel that will happen), than leave Austin motherless because the baby and I died from it! My friend's cousin works closely with the CDC and in many countries where there are terrible diseases. He told her that she and her almost-2-year-old should get it. She puts a lot of faith in what he knows, so she's decided to get it too (she's not pg). It is a scary thing to think about! Amy

I think Natalie might be due for some psychiatric help! Yeah, that's it, Jessie didn't vote for her because he's sad that she got engaged! Give me a break! That girl is CRAZY!

Margie~ Sorry this happened to you too, but you're lucky you know the date for your next chance to see the baby! My tech didn't think she'd see everything she needed to, but then she did (that was the reason I had a 2nd U/S with Austin~ she couldn't see his upper lip). I asked her if seeing the genital area was on her checklist and unfortunately it's not! Danielle~ I thought about getting the bedding~ especially since it's at Target and I found a bunch of gift cards from our wedding that I somehow didn't spend yet! But, I think I'm just going to wait and see if I have diabetes~ if I do, I'll have a ton of U/S's again. We'll see!

She was still a girl at our 32 week u/s so we were able to go shopping! Hang in there. I don't know if I'll have a 32-week U/S. A few people have asked me that, and I think my office only does 2 (the initial one and the 22 week one). Do most places do 3? I think the only way I'll have more is if I have GD again. Maybe I'll get another one because of my age (36), but they never say anything about my age. So I don't know!!!! Amy

I love seeing everyone's pix! Such beautiful babies! Heidi~ Congrats on your girl! So, we had our "big" U/S on Thursday, and the baby DID NOT cooperate!!! That's right, he or she was sitting on his or her butt! The tech said that based on the positions she was seeing, if there WERE boy parts, she would've seen them, so she labeled the baby a girl. However, she also said, it's possible that it's a boy sitting on his sack WTF? I asked her how sure she was, and she said she wouldn't have said anything if she wasn't sure. I asked her how many times she's been wrong, and she said "never". So, not sure if I'll have another U/S or not! Tested early for GD (since I had it with Austin), and it came back negative, which is great~ but I have to test again at 28 weeks. If I do have GD, I'll have tons of U/S's again. I also took the OTC Intelligender test, and it said "girl". I don't know~ I was so ready to come home and order bedding and get the nursery going! DH is saying not to buy anything yet! We are, however, very grateful of course that the baby is healthy! Hope everyone is doing well! Amy
