I just noticed your ticker in one of your replies - did this preg go fast???? Seems like it did!!!!

Are you soooo ready???

hopefulmomtobe replied: I have been watching that ticker too! It seems as if it has gone by very fast. I bet she is excited!!!

gabriella replied: So, this is where I should have written my message Good luck and I can't wait to hear your story

TheOaf66 replied: well gals, she is very ready, this PG has been kinda rough for her and she wants to get this overwith so she can start feeling better and start her maternity leave, but I am sure she will elaborate more later

lovemy2 replied:
I hope she is doing ok, haven't seen her around as much as of late - I am sure she is tired and all - doing daycare and caring for your own younger child on top of pregnancy has to be really hard - I had a hard time with just my own DD and working while preg the second time I couldn't imagine adding a bunch more kids to it....

Tell her to hang in there from us...

TheOaf66 replied: she is usually on here about 1pm central time or so

gabriella replied: Please let her know that we're all wishing her well, also to you and Tanner.

I remember the last weeks being the most trying and I just wanted it over with, already I put on WAY too much weight. (20 kilos/think that's 43pounds!!!) Which is mad because I'm not tall and started out at 57kilos/124 pounds?

loads and loads of

Boo&BugsMom replied: Hi all. Thanks for the warm well wishes. Like Troy has stated, I am sooooo ready to be done. It did seem to go by pretty fast, but this last month is just dragging on and on. I just want to have some quietness in my house...well, without the extra kids that is, and spend some quality family time with my little men, and the big man. I will admit though that I am a bit more scared with this one. Maybe because of the complications with Tanner's birth. ??? I wont argue with God if I go into labor a couple weeks early though...that would be nice. Although, I did like being able to plan Tanner since I had to be induced. Nothing was a surprise. I guess we'll see what happens. Any day now I suppose. I had a BH contraction this morning, and it hurt too. Thanks again!

Boo&BugsMom replied:
Sounds just like me too! I usually weigh about 125 and I have gained about 45 pounds now. I only gained 30 with Tanner. This one is hard to carry around.

lisar replied: Well good luck and I hope labor goes nice and easy for you.

gabriella replied: I love you. You're the first mum that has grown as healthily as I did. What's with the photo then, are you breathing in, cos you really look small

I was constantly told off by my midwife and doctor, but I just put it down to everyone having small babies here (Spain) and the women are petite to start with. My husband is Dutch and tall and I remember telling my doctor, "I'm not big, we're just Northern Europeans, and we have bigger babies"

For certain your baby is going to be gorgeous. Sam was 4.5 kilos/10lbs and a natural delivery, which they kept saying I'd probably not have. The great news was Sam loved feeding, and all the weight came off. Not quickly, but it all came off all the same.

I'll try to find some photos, just to prove the difference. I looked twice your size.

Hang in there

Boo&BugsMom replied: Tanner was 9.6 when he was born. Hubby is also a large fella, tall and solid. Who knows what this one will be. I'm hoping at least a pound lighter. I'm praying God will just humor me and he'll be between 6-7 pounds. Not too small but not large. Post a pic! I'd love to see it!

gabriella replied: You're funny. You wish, between 6-7 pounds I'm hoping for the same, but the weight is already piling on fast. Typical

okay. I'll post a picture, but it's not gonna stay up there for long

gabriella replied: okay, it's up there. I've posted it on..."down to the wire"

God, just looking at my picture gives me heartburn ......but look at that cutie in the hospital

Boo&BugsMom replied:
I saw it and I think your belly is beautiful, and certainly not huge. It's a perfect basketball bump! The second one is totally adorable too. I love those first baby pics.

gabriella replied: Thanks Jennie

I can't wait to see your photos...
