If the fever gets too bad you are welcome to keep Zac and Mary for the weekend. That aught to cure you of that fever (at least for a little while). Conversely, if you keep Evan for the weekend you will be wanting to give birth to twins.

You’re going to be an awesome mom. But if you want to practice, feel free to come on over and take night duty.

SERIOUSLY.

I didnt know if I could get pregnant…
and between the Chiari, not knowing if it is hereditary, the damage I’ve done to my body to the point where I stopped having my period, stopped ovulating, and all sorts of shit…
BUT…
It happened. TERRIFYING shit to be honest.
I have a week left and then I’m being induced on Tuesday 2/23. After almost 3 years of trying, it finally happened, and now it’s drawing to a close. it’s weird.

I’m probably going to spend the rest of my life wondering if she has Chiari, (or SM), or Scoliosis like me… but they already said they’ll monitor her. (Started in the womb checking her cerebellum and skull! Looks good so far)

When it’s meant to happen, it will happen. I didn’t even know my biological clock had batteries in it, and then VIOLA! One day the alarm went off in it, and it ticked so loud I could hear it at work while I Was home…

*huggles*

In due time. Happy thoughts. You’re more than welcome to fly to Boston to babysit my offspring. May make you decide you want your tubes tied if she’s anything like me!

Oh honey, i get it. Truly. I’m about to get divorced and I wish I was having a baby. Talk about insane.

When the time is right, I truly believe you’ll be able to have one. Until then, snuggle your niece and any others you can find. But uh Katie? 12? Serious? Ha. I shouldn’t talk. I want 4 or 5. But 12 seems like a lot.

Think positive, darling. I know you and slappy will be terrific parents when the time comes.

I’m very familiar with baby fever. Infact, you could say I have a case of it right now.

I feel you! I want a baby SO BAD, and I don’t even have a man with whom to have a baby. Every time I see an adorable tiny person, I can feel my ovaries explode.

I had the fever too. Especially in my late 20s. Which REALLY sucked because I wasn’t married and just broken up with a boyfriend I thought I was going to marry. So I made peace with the fact that I probably wouldn’t have a baby, because I figured by the time I met and married the man of my dreams, my ovaries would be OVER. But I got married at 32 – and my husband was ambivilant about having a baby. And on our three-month annivesary – I told him I was pregnant. SURPRISE! Now I have a 7-month-old – that quite frankly, if you were willing to drive to Georgia I would hand over to you because he is teething and it is NOT. PLEASANT. I kid.
But, I will say – all in God’s timing. I didn’t know if I’d get my blessing – and I did. He was so worth the wait. And I completely understand about wanting to see the best of you and the best of your husband combined. It really is spectacular. These next two years will fly by. And I hope that you are still blogging so the rest of us can share your excitment when you announce your own little bundle of joy.

finish school. I went back after my 1st 9yrs ago, had to stop because work/school became too much and then just had another 16mos ago. I plan on going back, plus I want more kids. it’s just harder to juggle now. Take care of you, go to school and that baby will come when you are ready. I feel you though. Even with 2 of my own, I have serious baby fever lately.

Yep. I have my own case of baby fever every so often. Luckily, Mike’s brother gave us a cute little niece this January, so it’s easier to fend off the siren call of the ovaries. I absolutely cannot wait to have kids, but I cannot get pregnant until I am diagnosed and we know for sure what the complications could/would be. It’s frustrating to know that my disease could affect my dreams of a family, but I want to be absolutely positive that it would be okay. Plus, Mike and I need to get married and buy a house in Florida first.
