As a yoga instructor...I make sure I look at everyones toes!!! J/K

My baby boy is fine!!! Yippee!!! There is no major heart problems, and 95% chance of not even a minor one. When the baby is born we will go to a pediatric cardiologist to listen for a murmur (sp?) and have another echo, but for now, all is good!

Dizzyb – That is funny. A colleague of mine does Yoga and he remarks every once in a while how some women’s feet look bad, so I always had that in the back of my head. Plus, I just need a little attentionJ
I am so happy that all is good with you baby boy.

So, I think my boss is scared I might quit on him. We were going through the review process and he just gave me a one-time pay bump of over 17%!!!! The retroactive pay will cover half the crib I am planning on buying this week.

Dana, I'm so relieved to hear your little one is going to be just fine I was talking to DH who is an identical twin...anyways, he was born prematurely with a heart murmur and a small hole was detected in his heart...it healed itself and he is great--obviously Point being it's so common...

I so wanted to try prenatal yoga but the peri said not to...walking is it for me A pedi would be nice though

Connie, that's great news about the raise! Congratulations!!!!

Happy Valentine’s Day everybody!

I can’t believe February is already half way done with. Before we know it, we will all be holding our little ones. I can’t wait. My DH was getting impatient yesterday when he had his belly time. He wants to feel something and hold the baby. But I do too. Sometimes it’s just so amazing to me to think that there is a living being growing inside of me.

Happy Valentine's Day Ladies.

My DH was so sweet, he sent me roses at work with a card signed from him, the twins and our furbaby.

Brought tears to my eyes, I think that's the first time in a long time that I've gotten flowers from him.

Hugs,

Sandy, that is so sweet. I would've cried too.

I got a box of chocolate from my stepson and another, bigger one from my DH. I have been craving chocolate lately, so that was right on the money! I took the smaller box to work so that I have something to snack. He also got me a neck pillow I can heat up in the microwave for my headaches and neck pains.

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

I wanted to be the 5th to chime in that I cannot believe we're 1/2 way there either!!! How exciting! Does it feel like it's going so fast for you all?

Sandy, that's SO sweet! I love V-day with my DH! What are you all doing tonight? We are going to make a v-day menu, go the the market and buy the ingredients, and cook together. This is a first-time thing for us so I'm excited

Also wanted to share that there's a great Natural Geographic movie I Netflixed called "In the Womb"...it documents a baby's journey from conception all the way to birth. If you want to see what's going on at every stage, you might find it interesting--I did

Have a great day/night!!

Happy V-day!!! And yes 1/2 way is awsome!

My DH and I aren't doing anything special tonight, but we are going to go out on Sunday night for a nice dinner. We are also going to a friends on Sat. for fondue for my birthday.

My little boy is moving all around! It is so fun!

I also wanted to pass onto you a good deal. We ordered our first baby items! Diaper bag from eddiebaueroutlet.com, they have an extra 30% off of their prices. So, the backpack diaper bag was only $20.99. We needed a real neutral diaper bag because DH is going to be a stay at home dad and these were awsome. Also, FYI, my best friend with twins said you should have a backpack with twins because you can't throw the bag over your sholder if you are caring 2 carseats or 2 kids. Here is the link: Eddie Bauer Outlet - Bags & Gear - Bags, Gear & Gadgets

Happy Valentine's day everyone.

Dizzy, so happy that your baby got the all clear from the cardiologist!

My husband did not get me anything and we are away visiting my family so I walked in the room and said to him "Honey, thanks so much for promising me a backrub for Valentine's day." right in front of my mom so he would feel too bad to back out. Serves him right, he could have gotten me a card.

I am still coughing. Been sick going on the 4th week now. I am not a happy camper.

Still wishing the babies would kick hard enough to feel them. Every few days I will feel a tiny something, but I am just so anxious!!!!!!

Rachel, that is funny. I hope you enjoyed your back rub. I was the bad one and didn’t get anything for my DH, but he said not to, so I guess I’m still goodJ

I hope everybody’s Friday will go by as quickly as possible, unless you’re not at work, of course.

Have a great weekend everybody.

Rachel, I felt just like you about feeling the kicks. I didn't feel them until 19 weeks on the dot. I felt a little something, but now I know it is him!

Hope everyone had a great V-day! I didn't get DH anything either but he was good to me! A box of chocolates, jumbo Hershey's kiss, M&M's and a candle Very sweet!

I felt something like bubbles popping on my left-hand side the other day--never felt anything like it! I can only guess it's Baby A! Last night I felt little soft jabs on my right hand side, which I can only guess to be Baby B! Right now the couch is shaking. My adorable Goldendoodle is having a dream and running and he is curled up against

Enjoy the long weekend!
