My name's jasie james, i'm from anaheim. I met jewel on a different forum, and she referred me here, and it turns out that she only lives in los angeles so we exchanged phone numbers, and it's so nice to have a preg buddy, even though i'm farther along. I'd be happy to talk to any of you other preg mommies too. I'm due on february the 18th, but my doctor thinks I might be early. Jewel says she'll come with me when I go into labor (we only live about a half hour apart, and I don't have a sister-figure, just my auntie, so she says she'll come with me if her doctor says she can get off bedrest for however long it takes). Sorry if i'm rambling, but i'm so excited to have my baby! I don't know if it's a boy or girl. I'm fourteen by the way. It's nice to meet you all!

Yep, I sure am, but the doctor says that if i'm fit, she'll let me go with jasie. Jase had false labor a few weeks ago, and her doctor thinks she'll deliver sometime in the next week. I'm so excited to see if it's a boy or girl! As soon as she goes into labor, i'll be letting everyone know. :)
about when i'm finding out, dani - i'm not. Well, not exactly. I know one's a boy for sure, thanks to all the ultrasounds needed to rectify the triplet suspicion, but I asked my doctor not to tell me what the other one is. I'm hoping for one of each, but I mainly just want them to be healthy. :)

Wow, that's so cool! Same due date! Well, I just can't wait to hold my baby - only nine more days left at most because my doctor says that she doesn't think i'll be late - i've just been sitting around eating cantalopue (which I didn't even like pre-preg!) and waiting! It's killing me, lol!
Do you know if you're having a boy or a girl? Mine'll be a delivery room surprise! :)

Im excited for u jasie and kitty but I cant help but be jealous yall r so close and 5 weeks and 4 days seems so damn far away! I wish I had yalls patience to not find out what u are having did u plan it that way or did your babies not cooperate at ultrasound? Im so impatient I couldnt wait til my medical ultrasound and went and paid for one of those 3d things even tho I already knew it was a boy thru insstinct

jewel I hope u get one of each that would b so cool! Ooo I can just see the cute lil outfits like a fancy dress and lil suit aaww! Omg my daughter is covered in chocolate (she has an addiction) I gave her a cookie so I could check my mail and she is a mess!

Ps im going to the price is right one day so im coming to see your cuties 2! We are suppose to go this summer for one of my friends b-days but im not going ne where that involves national tv til im skinny again

According to the ultrasound, I should be having a lil boy! I really hope they are right, b/c my boyfriend and I made the mistake of buying everything blue!!! So if it comes out a little girl (which i'll still be crazy happy about) she'll just have to dress like a little boy for 3 months. Lol~
i am the most impatient person ever and the past couple of weeks has been going by so slowly~ but when I went to the doctors today, they said i'm 50% dilated!!! Which could mean that i'll have my baby this weekend/next week!
Ps: jasie: i'm chinese and according to chinese myths, cantelopes... And all the melon-type-fruits are bad to have during pregnancy because it might cause the baby to have rough skin. But it's just a chinese myth, I don't know how much I believe it myself... But it's just something my mother told me!!
Pps: speaking of little prince baby clothes... Go to old navy!!!! They have a one-sie that saids "little prince" and they have a baby sale on right now!!!! (in canada at least)

Yeah, jase, gawsh...No more cantaloupe for you! :)
i love looking at baby clothes! Gah, I want to go out shopping so badly, but my doctor said that I have to save my energy for when jasie goes into labor.
Anything yet, jase?
