Friday... AT LAST!

Yay, I thought today would NEVER get here! Now it's a matter of getting through the morning until the ultrasound at 130 this afternoon. So I tried to plan myself a pretty busy morning to keep things rolling along. Going to get some laundry started, and then later this morning we're heading out to pick up the crib from Carmen (thanks again). Assembling that should keep me occupied til its time to go, that and drinking gallons and gallons of water and trying to hold it for the ultrasound (I guess they can see better if your bladder is full). Also checking Meijer for some christmas ponies they are supposed to have. We have a few stops to make after the appointment, but as soon as I get home I'll post what we've found out. Good luck at surgery today Sherri! Sure hope you'll be up and walking around soon!

so you will know if it is gonna be a lil man or a lil lady...yeap that is gonna be exciting for you,,,i bet you buy a lil blue or pink something....lol..keep busy you sure are up early.....

Yeah, I've been up since 4, too excited to sleep. Dogs woke me up to potty and i couldnt get settled back in, so just went ahead and got up hehehe.

Darrah, I'm new. Does it say that you just had your surgery in March? and I'm gathering from your post that you're pregnant... WOW.... did you have problems getting pregnant before. That's the main reason i'm trying to have this surgery is to have a baby. I was on fertility drugs, got pregnant and it was a tubal so I lost a tube. I don't want to lose my other one so I"m going to try and do everything I can to let my body do it naturally. Just wanted to know, so I can have hope. Keep busy I can't imagine how excited you are!!!

Yeah, we had tried for years to get preggo to no avail, and POOF! 5 months after surgery there it was. I'd reccomend waiting the full year like youre supposed to, I had troubles with eating first trimester. And welcome to the board, dont be a stranger and post lots

Jessyca, Just in case Darrah is busy, I thought I'd reply to you. Yes, our Darrah is pregnant..and yes, just had her WLS this past March. WLS is wonderful at regulating your body and making your body more willing & able to have a baby. BUT....definately wait longer than Darrah, ok? I think most surgeons recommend waiting until you are 2 years post-op. Darrah has had a constant battle to get in enough food for her and her baby. For a less stressful, and a healthier pregnancy, do as the surgeons recommend. Best wishes. I know you're looking forward to holding that little bundle of joy, it will come, but take care of the mom first. k? Sherri

Darrah I am sure glad Friday is here. I have had medical appointment every day this week. I can feel you excitement in finding out whether it will be a boy or girl. Maybe there will be one of each. lol Looking forward to hearing the results. Have a great weekend. Dan

Darrah, Good morning sweetie! I'm so happy for you! Way, way, back when I had my kids, they only did ulrasounds if they thought something was wrong. Nothing was, so I didn't know the gender until they were born. Well...unless you count the needle & thread fortune telling that which I might add, predicted correctly! I can't wait to find out myself what your little bambino is going to be! LOL! Well...off to take my last shower for awhile. For the next 3-4 weeks, I'll have to wash up at the sink since I won't be able to get my foot wet. I think I'll make it an extra long shower today!! LOL! All I know is I am sure looking forward to walking & working out again! I gotta get these muscles tighted back up for my plastics! I better get busy. You all have a great day...and a terrific next few days! I'll ask my daughter Tiffany to put in a post for me after we get home so look for one on here from 'SweetSherri' since Tiff doesn't have an ID on here. Sherri

Good Morning Sherri, Glad to see your'e beautiful smile on this morning!! Hope these go well with your foot surgery I'll say a prayer for you. You'd better take 3long shower's(lol) well gotta get some paper worked fininished for the lawyer there trying to get my will and living will finished so I can get them signed before Wed. Darrah good luck on finding out boy or girl!! I personally never did that could but I said no I won't to be suprised so both kids where surprised boy's I get on later to see if your'e blue or pink(LO) Mary

Yeah! It's Friday! I am glad to count down another day until surgery. I went to my pre-op class yesterday. It was very informative, kind of like, wow, can I do all this stuff??? But I am sure I can if I put my mind to it. Linda
