I'm pregnant! (8 months along now, no longer morning sick!)

Also, thanks for the links you guys! I've been practicing those diaper folds on a stuffed animal (I know, I'm ridiculous). The neighbors have hooked me up with a ton of cloth diapers, so I'm really excited about doing this!

Cloth diapers Wow I couldn't do that- gotta love disposable! As far as sleeping goes my first one slept in a cradle in my room for the first 4 wks then she went into her own room and was sleeping threw the night at 4 wks so it just depends on the kid I think. The one on the way may be totally different though- I think it may go into its own room from the beginning so my 3 yr old doesn't want to start sleeping in my room too. When my 3 yr old was around 1.5 her dad was on night shift so I let her sleep in my bed a few nights and about never got her back to sleeping in her room. It was about 1 month of crying at bedtime before she would sleep in her room again willingly. Now she tells me when its time to go to bed!

I am 35 weeks along, I have gained 32 pounds, and my belly measures 35 centimeters from top to bottom. Babies born at week 37 are considered full term, so even though he's not due till January 13, it could theoretically happen a lot sooner! But I'm preparing myself for a late birth. 42 weeks inside is still a normal amount of time! I'm sick at home today, drinking a lot of gatorade and eating popsicles and soup.

Steven was in such a hurry he decided to be born in my 7th month.... He's still in a hurry!! I drank a lot of hot tea, ate a lot of jalapenos, and couldn't touch anything sweet. I'm glad to see you are doing so well and we are looking forward to your little one!

Oh man, I'm the opposite! I can't touch anything spicy...I haven't eaten Buffalo wings in months because they give me heartburn so bad. But I crave sweets constantly...probably more than I did before I was pregnant and I have always been completely sugar addicted. I was afraid for a while that my love of sugar would make me have a heavy baby, but my sister, who is just as bad as me about sugar, told me that she didn't quit sugar at all during her pregnancy, gained 40 lbs total, didn't have diabetes, and her son weighed in the 6 pound range. So I'm hoping the same holds true for me. I definitely don't have diabetes, so that's a good sign!

I'm due somewhere between the 27th and 31st of Dec.... the indigestion as he kicks my tummy makes up for the MS.

What's MS? I keep thinking multiple sclerosis, but I know that can't be it!

Oh, that's a good guess. That makes perfect sense.
