What's your estimated due date?
June 16th, 2011; I went one week early with DD though, so I may be early with this LO too.
Is this your first; if not, how many other LO's do you have?
Nope! Second LO. DD just turned one year old on October 7th =D
What are your hopes for this pregnancy (labor/delivery, during pregnancy, as far as siblings or your SO goes, etc etc)?
I'd like to have another natural birth (no pain medications, specifically), another fast labor if possible (DD was born in 5 hours), NO MORNING SICKNESS!, less stretch marks, another easy pregnancy, and for DD to welcome her little brother or sister warmly and not have too many jealousy issues.
Are you hoping for a specific gender?
DH and I are hoping for a little boy, and twins run on both sides of the family, so we'll see what happens!
It's a little early, but do you have any names picked out yet?
Unfortunately not. DH can't seem to compromise with me on ANYTHING. I told him that if he doesn't help me find names pretty soon, I'm going to pull the trump card. (IE: I carried the baby for 9 months, I'm going through labor and delivery, so I'M naming it!) lol.

What are your hopes for this pregnancy (labor/delivery, during pregnancy, as far as siblings or your SO goes, etc etc)? I want to be brave and try to go for the complete natural way ths time (no meds,vaginal). My 1st was in less then 2 1/2 hrs and 2nd was in less then 45 min (thats from the parkng garage to the room) she came out to fast there was no time for epidural so it was VERY painful, however im sure it didnt help that I took castor oil so that could explain the pain, my body was trying to push something out faster then what it could handle. I know my oldest (soon to be 5) will be ok, shes excited, im worried that the youngest (3 yr) will show signs of jealousy, so while the oldest is in prek we have the house to ourselves so i make sure to spend alot of quality time with her and prepare her for the new baby. And I have tats on my stomach (literally on my stomach no on the side) so im PRAYING they go back into place after delivery. No stretch marks ive been blessed to not get any.

It's a little early, but do you have any names picked out yet?
Im grateful for whatever as long as it comes out healthy, however I wont say it because i dont want to jinx myself but we already have 2 girls sooo it would be nice for something dfferent. Boy- Passing his name Arlis Rufus Hall IV Girl- IDK i will probably end up doing a facebook poll.. LOL We didnt know what to name #2 so we choose 5 names and had everyone choose which they liked most to least.. Thats how we got the name Kylie.

What's your estimated due date?
June 16th, 2011 (I think... will know more on the 9th of November when I have my first u/s)
Is this your first; if not, how many other LO's do you have?
Nope, number 3 actually! I have twin 2.5 year old boys already!
What are your hopes for this pregnancy (labor/delivery, during pregnancy, as far as siblings or your SO goes, etc etc)?
I would love to have another easy pregnancy like I did with the twins. I had no issues including the delivery so a repeat of that would be great with me!
Are you hoping for a specific gender?
We could care less at this point. Since this new baby (or babies, I guess it's possible!) will be born 3 years and a month after the boys it would be easy clothes wise to have another boy. But I honestly don't care as long as the baby is healthy.
It's a little early, but do you have any names picked out yet?
No names picked out yet. We started to joke about it the other day but until we know for sure there's just one baby in there, we are going to wait to have the real discussion!

Is this your first; if not, how many other LO's do you have?
Nope! Second LO.
What are your hopes for this pregnancy (labor/delivery, during pregnancy, as far as siblings or your SO goes, etc etc)?
I hope i can do a vbac this time, and no sicknesses. Can't afford not to work and a healthy baby.
Are you hoping for a specific gender?
Yes we are hoping for a baby girl as we already have a boy, but we are at God's mercy, lol.
It's a little early, but do you have any names picked out yet
No names yet, i think it is too early. We're still in the process of telling ppl.

I am hoping to have a easy pregnancy and labor just like I did with my other 2 pregnancies. And no new stretch marks!!! LOL
Are you hoping for a specific gender?
I would like to have a girl. Since I already have two wonderful boys I am hoping for a girl this time.

Well not yet I have been thinking about it but I haven't really started the naming part yet. I go to have my first ultrasound monday the 18th so maybe after I see the baby I will start with the names...

I'd like the morning sickness to disappear and NEVER return again! It is terrible! I would also like to get through this pregnancy without any high blood pressure scares and bed rest. Just smooth sailing is all I ask for!

Is this your first; if not, how many other LO's do you have?
Yes, we had a miscarriage in March. I am really scared about things not working out, but I am really trying to stay postive.
What are your hopes for this pregnancy (labor/delivery, during pregnancy, as far as siblings or your SO goes, etc etc)?
We are hoping to have a water birth in a birthing center. We are not really hospital people. After our experience in March we are scared to go in that direction.
Are you hoping for a specific gender?
Any healthy baby will be GREAT!
It's a little early, but do you have any names picked out yet?
My husband is a 4th and his name is very important to his family. But we have not even discussed it yet. Just hoping that everything goes well. We can work on that soon:)

What are your hopes for this pregnancy (labor/delivery, during pregnancy, as far as siblings or your SO goes, etc etc)?
I hope my morning sickness subsides soon! More than anything, I hope this pregnancy makes it to term (had a m/c in January). Both of my children will be super excited once we tell them. My daughter prays every night that mommy has a baby!
Are you hoping for a specific gender?
Either would be fine.
