Where ya been DB? Good to see you!

How's my Fitty doing??



Posted by: Fitgirl70

All is well here....really slow at the office today, so I've nodded off already! I could seriously crawl underneath my desk and go to sleep.

It was my intention to go to Victoria's Secret this afternoon to buy a new bra, but what I really wanna do is just go home, crawl up on the couch with the Chiller channel and take a little nap before hubby gets home.....LOL!

Sleep is all I want...sleep is all I want...sleep is all I want!!

I got it .

How about Vince? Maybe Vince Young Harris?

I like Hanna, but it is so common now. My niece named her beautiful daughter Hanna, and everyone, and I mean everyone, calls her either "Hanna Banana", or "Hanna Montana". She is 8, and hates that.



Posted by: b_reed23

try to find something individual Tammy!!! mine and cody's neice's name is Maleah (which is a Hawaiin name for Mary) and at first we were skeptical, but it is such a beautiful name



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I've known of a Maleah actually...I like it, but I don't think I'd like it for my daughter.

If it's a girl, I would like Mattie. Just Mattie, not short for anything.
If it's a boy, I would like Jake. Just Jake, not Jacob.

If you're a Lost fan, you'll get a kick out of this....hubby wants to name the baby Hugo!

hiya girl!!! how's our own IM Mommy????



Posted by: Fitgirl70

All is well here, thanks for checking in on me jellybean!

I went to the doctor yesterday and everything is fine. I thought I would've had a sonogram, but they are going to wait until July 1st when I go back. I'm hoping I can get in to see our sonographer here before then, so I can get a sono and see the little peanut.

I will scan it when I do and post for everyone.

How are you doing? How is everyone else this Wednesday?



Posted by: Pylon

Whoa! Looks like I missed some big news!

Congrats!!!!!!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Thanks Py! How are ya by the way?



Posted by: Pylon

Squishy. You?



Posted by: b_reed23

squishy....that's goes double for me



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Oh my gosh...nuttin going on in here since the 5th....I'm a slacker!

Nothing much to report though. The belly is growing and I feel stretches and tugs and stuff all the time. I can't wait 'till I can really start to feel the baby move. I think sometime over the next few months we'll start to get the nursery together. I'll take pics for sure.

Let's see, what else? Oh...Donnie (my oldest) broke his tibia on the 6th and he had surgery last Thursday. It's starting to heal, so he's starting to feel a little better, but he's not going to be able to ride for about 3 months.

Brandon has a race this weekend at one of our favorite tracks, so at least Donnie will get to get out and see his friends. Poor guy, I know he's ready to get back out there though. I feel bad for him.

Ok, I'll try to keep up with my journal better from now on. I promise!
Love you all!

Tam



Posted by: b_reed23

have you gotten a sonogram at work yet?? I am so eager to find out what it's gonna be!! (besides a baby of course... )

I'm glad you stopped in...I've been worried about you!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I won't be able to find out what it is for 6 more weeks. Yes, it's killin' me too. I wanna know right now!!!! All of our friends say it's going to be a girl.

back to ya babe. I've been following along in your journal and I think you're right. Whatever you do is the best. If you happen to lose weight, fine. If you don't, fine! You do what is best for you sweetie. You know one thing, whatever happens - you're fine with it and Cody will always love you. So will I

Im calling a boy!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey everyone! Sorry I've been MIA again, work has been so busy and I'm just so flippin tired that I don't want to do anything besides sleep.

We've been remodeling my youngest son's bathroom -- that took about a week -- now we're about to start setting up and decorating the nursery. My sister in law is giving me her crib, the changing table, basinette and the rocking chair. Whew! glad we're getting all of that, those are the big items and cost mucho bucks to buy. All of the other stuff we'll either buy or get at baby showers.

I'm attaching a picture of the sonogram that we had done on the 2nd. They say we won't be able to find out what it is until probably the end of the month. So as soon as I find out, I'll let you guys know for sure.

Sorry I haven't checked in for a while. I promise to check in more often.

Hugs and kisses to everyone!



Posted by: b_reed23

Great pic Tam...it's already adorable! How are you gonna do the nursery?? Pic out any names yet?



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Yep, if it's a girl it's gonna be Mattie Carolyn. We have not settled on a boy name yet. Though I like Jake --- we'll see!

The nursery is going to be in Rainforest. You can check the stuff out on Target.com. They have all of the stuff that I want. It's bright and fun. I think it will be great for the baby.



Posted by: b_reed23

I think a pregnancy journal would be great!! They have several on oxygenmag.com and I love looking at all the big belly pics!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I'll check that out....thanks!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Ok, here's a pic - side baby belly



Posted by: b_reed23

Tam...you look beautiful...your only 2 months along, right?



Posted by: Fitgirl70

13.5 weeks, starting my 4th month/2nd trimester



Posted by: b_reed23

I just remembered you took the test at the beginning of May



Posted by: Fitgirl70

yep, we were already 6 weeks preggo when we got the test done to confirm. Time flies doesn't it???



Posted by: Fitgirl70

IT'S A BOY





Posted by: b_reed23

congratulations Tammy!!!! I am so excited for you!!!

I bet hubby is excited...have ya'll picked a name yet? your 5 months in now, right? How have you been feeling??

How about some update pics???

sorry I haven't checked on you....I barely get on here anymore...IM has been dead...no one posts in journals anymore



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I know, I check every now and then, but no on is ever on and you're right, it seems no one posts in their journals anymore. Maybe it's just the summer and everyone is on vacation. LOL

Here is one more, I actually just took this real quick this morning.

We'll be on vacation next week, so I'll have more from our trip and I'll post a few when we get back.





Posted by: Fitgirl70

Woah, that's huge.....sorry!!!



Posted by: b_reed23

I think you look adorable !! Is that taken at work?



Posted by: naturaltan

Posted by: b_reed23

Posted by: Fitgirl70

How are you doing?
was checking to see how the mommy to be is. my ct seemed to have no cause 'til i found info about this. Carpal tunnel syndrome during pregnancy - BabyCenter i hope it's not too bad. a pregnancy journal would be really nice.



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I did see that, thanks! And my doc has suggested that I use wrist splints at night. I started using them last night. I think I may have to start wearing them during work too as I use my computer all day long.



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Morning everyone! Let's see, what's going on today in the world of Super Preggo?

I feel really good today. The baby has been moving a lot more lately. He moves a lot at night. I also bought the Baby Plus Prenatal Education System. I've only used it about 3 times and he seems to be responding very well to it. He moves a lot when I'm using it. I don't know if it's "true to it's word" or not, but I want to give the baby the best head start possible and it doesn't appear there is any harm.

Let's see,what else? I go to the doctor next week on the 26th. I think this is when we'll get the sonogram to tell the gender. We already know we're having a boy, but I wanna see him anyway. I wish I had one of those sonogram machines so that I could look at the baby all the time. I will def put up new pics when we get them.

The little calendar/event emails that I get say the baby is about 10.5 inches long now (head to toe).

I can't wait until January when he gets here. I can't wait to see him and hold him and play with him and kiss that cute little face!



Posted by: b_reed23

awww....you made me tear up just then I am so happy for you Tammy!! Do you still have the links to the free IVF thing?? Did you go through them for all your IVF treatments?? Cody and I are gonna give it a go next year (hopefully in the fall sometime)



Posted by: Fitgirl70

No, I do not recommend Free IVF. They never called me back in the given time frame that they promised and never did anything with the donation that I sent....as far as I know.

If you absolutely need IVF, I'd go through Capital One's Infertility Program and get a loan. This is what Brad and I ended up doing. They are so easy to work with and you get your money virtually the same week.

My doctor's office was THE BEST also. I would recommend them to anyone that has the luxury of going to anyone of their offices. They're amazing!!!!!

If you don't need IVF, check out going through just the artificial insemination where they put the sperm inside of you. It's much cheaper and tends to work in enormous success rates if they are monitoring you correctly.

Do you know if you will need assistance at all? (sorry, I don't mean to air anyone's private business here, so answer in PM if you want to.)

OK, so today I had this really huge craving for fried rice and since I've been on a broccoli kick lately, I went to Panda Express and got fried rice and broccoli beef. I proceeded to eat the entire flippin plate of fried rice and all of my broccoli. Oh well, better to be on a broccoli kick than an ice cream or donut kick, huh?



Posted by: Fitgirl70

20 weeks today -- half way point!

I'm so excited and can't believe that it's gone this fast. I hope and I really do think that the next 18 to 20 weeks will go just as fast!

Brad did a lot of work this weekend cleaning out the closet in the extra room and we're going to be working the next few weekends to clean everything up and get the nursery ready.

I go to the doctor tomorrow for my normal check and then we have a sonogram on Friday. I can't wait to see him and have new pictures for everyone.

He sure is kicking up a storm in there.

OK, gotta get to work, I think I'm going to be pretty busy today.

Hope everyone is doing well!



Posted by: Burner02

hey lady!
Wow....take a look in here...and come to find out that you are having a baby! WAHOO!
..and!!! Billy is nekkid....truly a good day....




Posted by: Fitgirl70

See what happens when you keep up with your friends....nekkidness and babies!!!



Posted by: b_reed23

20 weeks is half way?? Your gonna be pregnant for 10 months



Posted by: Fitgirl70

No silly!!! Generally a pregnancy is anywhere from 36 to 40 weeks. They say 9 months because it's the general thought that each trimester is 3 months. 3,6,9 = 3 trimesters....well, actually each trimester is approx. 13 weeks.

You just have to remember that some months are 4 weeks and some are 5. It all works out in the end....LOL

More of an explanation than you wanted, but there ya go!



Posted by: b_reed23

most of the gals I know were prego for under 36 weeks...maybe it's something in the water around here



Posted by: Fitgirl70

That would work for me...as long as the baby was completely healthy and ready



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I had my sono today. Everything is going well. He's measuring just fine and is in the 58% percentile, just a little above average. That's my smart, big boy!!!

Here are two pictures and a video w/ a 3D side. You should be able to just click on the video and it will pop up a new box and start.









Posted by: b_reed23

very cool Tam!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I've watched that video already about 800 times......I love to see that little mouth moving.



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Let's see...what's going on in "As the Preggo World turns"?

This little one plays football in the mornings, soccer in the afternoons and swims an olympic lap in the evenings. He is active, active, active. I love that feeling of him kicking and moving.

Brad has only felt him kick a couple of times, but the baby is starting to become more active and he will feel him more and more in the coming weeks.

My heartburn is terrible, but that's the only thing, so I'll take it.

I go back to the doctor on the 23rd for my next appt. I will be 24 weeks then. I can't believe it's going so fast.



Posted by: Scarface30

sooo..I am waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay behind...Fitty pregnant!? congrats Fitty! that's awesome!

great pics too, I bet that was pretty exciting seeing the ultrasound pictures. (they are ultrasound pictures, right?)



Posted by: b_reed23

Tam, I always look forward to your updates!!!!!!!






Posted by: Pylon

Sounds like things are going great! My wife always had heartburn issues as well. She worked the Tums pretty hard, but they are a decent calcium supplement as well, so it's all good. I think the limit they gave her was 6 or 8 a day. If you haven't already, you might check that out.



Posted by: Pylon

Sounds like it's going great!

My wife had heartburn issues too. Tums were a big part of the plan in our house.

THanks Scar!!! Yes, 5 months. It is going by so fast!

Yes, the ultrasound pics are awesome, I love seeing him every chance I get.

Oh Py, yes, the Tums are like a food group in my life. Here is a rundown of my current food groups:

chocolate milk
mexican food
Tums
McDonald's
Chipotle



Luckily I haven't gained that much weight. I think I've only gained about 10 or 11 pounds. I'm trying really hard now though to eat very healthy and bring my foods to work more than eating out. I'm trying also to eat more fruits and veggies than anything.

Still getting some resemblance of workouts, mostly walking, taking the stairs at work and wall squats. Of course kegels too. They will aid in delivery.

someone at work asked me this morning what I ate over the weekend. It looked like I swallowed a small basketball. I may have another pic or two later this week.



Posted by: b_reed23

woohoo!! pics!!!



Posted by: b_reed23

I hope you and your family made it through all that horrible weather Tammy!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

All is well here, we got rain and wind, but that was it! Thanks be to God.

Here is the pic from yesterday:


And a pic of the baby's bedding:




Posted by: Fitgirl70

Sorry the pics are so big.



Posted by: b_reed23

You look adorable Tammy!! The nursury is adorable too How have you been feeling?



Posted by: katt

Awww,, cute crib set up you have there. How's the mom doing? Heartburn going away?



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Hey everyone! All is well here. I feel great. Aside from the heartburn, which would go away if I ate better....LOL

Oh well, I'll deal with it!

I go to the doctor tomorrow so I'll fill you guys in with an update once I get back.

Hope everyone is doing well.
Tam



Posted by: Pylon

Glad to hear all is well!



Posted by: Scarface30

good to hear all is well Fitty!

how long to go is it for the baby now?



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Anywhere from 12 to 16 weeks....depending on how long the pregnancy will go. I'm hoping only 12 or 13.

I'm feeling great and not ready to end it by any means (at least for now), but I'm just ready to see him.

We were in Austin this past weekend for a game and got the baby a little outfit that says "Born a Horn" I think I am going to take it to the hospital and he will wear that home!



Posted by: Stacey

Congratulations Tam!! I'm so glad your pregnancy is going good and that you guys are healthy. I just got caught up on your journal. Man I need to stop being a stranger. I may start a journal again? But I know you have heard that before.
When are you due?? That would be cute if your baby came home in a horns outfit!!
take care babe!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

Oh my gaaaawwwwdddd, it's Stacey...Girl, you REALLY need to start a journal. Just get on it, once you do you may not check in everyday, but we'll be able to keep up with you!!!!

Miss you sweetie.

I'm due in Jan. Literally, there could only be 12 weeks left...I can't believe it's gone so fast.



Posted by: Pylon

Did you pick a name yet? Did I already ask that?



Posted by: naturaltan

Good to hear things are going great.

We think Caleb. But we're not totally sure yet. We really like it, but we're trying not to say it too much so that we don't get tired of it. LOL

Either way his middle name will be Major.

We have also talked about naming him Colt Major. Is this kid destined to be a Longhorn quarterback or what??? LOL



Posted by: Pylon

Colt Major. I dig that!



Posted by: katt

Colt or Caleb... both of those names are awesome!



Posted by: Stacey

Hey Tam!! I know!! I will start a journal. I miss you!! I love the name Caleb, and you look so cute pregnant!! You look beautiful!! I like your nursery!!




Posted by: Stacey

where are you girl?? Are you feeling okay?? I hope so! Just wanted to say Hi!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I'm here, I'll try to get another picture up today maybe.

26 weeks this week! Week 27 starts on Monday....whoooo!!!! Getting close, getting really close. All is going well though, just getting bigger!

I'll keep you guys posted.



Posted by: Fitgirl70

OK, I posted last 6 weeks ago...yes 6! I'm 32 weeks today. Can't hardly believe it. I will try to post another pic, I might take one tonight or tomorrow. We'll see.

Little Caleb is a busy little bee in there. Kicks and hiccups and toes in the ribs...LOL...it's all so cute! I can't wait to see him.

I go to the doctor tomorrow afternoon, so I'll know more by then and will fill you guys in. We could literally have this baby in 4 weeks....whew!!!



Posted by: b_reed23

:boun ce2:

WOOOOHOOOO!!! I miss ya Tam! How are you doing? Thanks for the gifts..they are beautiful!!

What are a few things you still need for baby?



Posted by: Archangel

Sister Fitty, I'm so happy for you and Love the name too!!!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

I don't need anything, honestly. We've got so much from showers, it's not even funny! Actually I need to buy diapers, but that's going to be a need from day one.

The doctor's appointment yesterday went perfect. Unless he decides to come earlier on his own, we will be induced on Jan 7th. Other than that, he is doing well. My gestational diabetes is going great and my numbers are perfect. My dietitian is pleased.

OK, will check back in with you guys later...busy, busy, busy today.
XOXO

P.S., missed you Sir Arch. Glad you popped in.

Posted by: Fitgirl70

couSON....how the heck are ya darlin?

have been missin' you



Posted by: naturaltan

Things are great here ... and I see even better for you



Posted by: Fitgirl70

happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!



Posted by: b_reed23

Happy Turkey Day Tammy!



Posted by: Fitgirl70

hey everyone! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and didn't eat too much. But then again, if you didn't eat too much, it probably wasn't that great of a Thanksgiving....LOL....I kid!

Mine was good, did eat too much, then just had to sit on the couch and chill for about 3 days...LOL

Everything is still going great with the pregnancy. Caleb is still in there. Not counting this week, I only have about 4 weeks left. That's if he holds out until the induction -- which I don't think he will.
I go to the doctor tomorrow and we will see what he says. Hopefully he'll check me and tell me that I'm already dialating...LOL

XOXO to you all.
