Where is everyone else today? Thought everyone was coming back to reality like me this morning and doing laundry and dealing w/ baby who has been on vacation w/ constant entertainment and no sleep. If you are on vaca now, enjoy next week, lemme tell ya. And why am I bothering to get her back on track anyway when we are leaving again Friday for 16 days of fun in the sun w/ my entire family, 19 strong when everyone is there? And NO wireless; will go broke driving down to the Internet cafe to check in as it is like 10 miles away.

Here is an interesting link, not that we all didn't know this already, but now the proof is documented. Now if only she would do nothing but smile maybe I could lay off the chocolate? But then another baby might not be as likely?

Baby's first smiles give mom's brain a buzz - Kids and parenting - MSNBC.com

Ya know, I wondered the same thing but I didn't think you shot cocaine so I didn't mention it for fear of sounding not-hip so I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. Personally, I would have shot or done whatever w/ the cocaine and called it journalist integrity.

Glad you made it back, I thought you were coming home yesterday and just gotten over us while you were gone. I think AM is a little tired these days but she texted me that her first OB appt today went well, long, but well; sleeping baby hb 162, SO thinking girl.
How 'bout some TN pictures of A? When is your next u/s?

Hola Chicas ~

It has been quiet around here, right? BP has been working every day for the past week, plus double shifts on the weekend, and doesn't have a day off until this coming Sunday, so I am feeling like a single parent these days . . . . and let me tell you - I give single parents the utmost kudos! I am friggin exhausted chasing this boy around solo.

Robin - how did Irina's OB visit go today? Did you get to go with her? Did they do an u/s?

My first OB appt was today also, as Megsc posted for me (gracias). Abdominal u/s and the tech says, "Wow - your uterus is standing straight up - was he a big baby? he must have stretched it out". Ummmmmm, ok. (sidebar: Do you think I can blame my extra weight on my stretched out uterus?) Anyhow - sleeping lil baby with a HB of 162. They drew a ton of blood - what else could I possible be checked for that my RE hasn't checked over the past 2 months, lol!

Going for my NT scan in 2 weeks and then my next OB visit is in August - how odd!

Off to check the threads. Hope you are all doing well.

I had her 1st OB appointment yesterday... it was LONG, but all went well... Her OB doesn't want to do the NT test because he doesn't think it is reliable in twin pregnancy... we are going anyway it's scheduled for next wednesday... we will get to see our little ones again

AM - glad your appointment went well...
