    @hilsy85: it was so cool/scary/exciting/memorable to see it!

    I was so nervous almost before it came up - my heart was pounding - it was such a big build up! We knew it was going up in the first quarter in the first time out - so as soon as the whistle blew we were up, camera ready, arms around each other -- and then we waited.... Seemed like forever! The whistle blew again and the players were walking back out - we were thinking they forgot or maybe they would do it at the second time out, so we started to sit --- then, at the bottom portion of the screen we saw our names, then "it's a ........ Boy!!!"

    We stood and yelled (we were the only ones yelling and standing) and cried, and totally forgot to take pics.

    It was great!

    @Running Elley: My DH got to feel the baby kick on the outside (talk about a turn around from last week when I wasn't feeling much.) This little girl is definetely making up for it, she's is a fluttering/kicking machine all day long! Hopefully this translates well when she's born though, I like being able to sleep at night since she is sleeping! haha wishful thinking I know

    thanks ladies! I know! lots of boys in october

    @ninja: yay ninja! so exciting! i just loved being able to watch the baby on screen for so much time.... and seeing the baby move so much!

    @Running Elley: so great your sister got to feel! I keep trying to get my husband to feel & he always misses it.

    btw - i just got kicked so hard it made me jump at my desk - yikes! anyone else's whole body jump from the stronger kicks?

    @hellobeeboston: I got kicked this morning so hard that the sheet on the bed moved! But since then it has been flutters ALL DAY, I'm almost ready for her to nap because it is so distracting! haha

    @jessiejo17: ahh! that's crazy! i love it!

    yeah - since the one big kick (and a few minor) it's been mostly flutters ever since i ate lunch. I don't think he liked the black bean soup from au bon pain i had.

    Hi ladies! I figured as we get closer to the 2nd half of our pregnancy, it might be nice to have a way to keep track of our due dates and whether we're team pink or blue Let me know if I forgot anyone or got anyone's due dates/team wrong! I feel like we have a bunch all due within a 2 week period mid month!

    CarrieLouWho 10/6 (girl!)
    JessieJo17 10/6 (girl!)
    Doogerdog 10/6
    HowJoyful 10/7 (team green!)
    Ninja 10/16 (boy!)
    Running Elley 10/17 (boy!)
    Sloaneandpuffy 10/20 (team green!)
    Ameals 10/23
    Hilsy85 10/23 (boy!)
    Hellobeeboston 10/24 (boy!)

    @hilsy85: Good idea!!!! Thanks for doing that!

    @hilsy85: awesome! Thanks for setting up!!

  27. hilsy85

    No prob! As we get closer to our due dates it'll be interesting to see if we end up having any Sept babies or Nov babies!

    @hilsy85: Great idea! Definitely makes it easier for me as a late-comer to keep track of everyone

  29. LuLu Mom

    GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts

    It's crazy to see all of us together, good idea!!!

    @Ninja - CONGRATS on your baby BOY!!! Yay for more blue :o)
    @Hilsy - That chart is great! Thanks for compiling... so cool to see everyone together!

    We had the follow-up from our anatomy scan today. They got everything on this U/S and Baby Girl looks great!!!

    Also, we confirmed confirmed that her name is Delaney Elizabeth! It's really starting to feel real now :o)

    @CarrieLouWho: LOVE the name!! So exciting to have that decided on

    Are you ladies doing newborn shoots? I read a thread on the bump where people had said they were booking them already, which made me nervous! Dh is really against booking anything this early, as he feels it might "jinx" something. I, on the other hand, would feel much better knowing we are able to book the photog that we want! What are you guys thinking?

  32. CarrieLouWho

    persimmon / 1408 posts

    Hmm... I just started looking at doing maternity shots, still not sure if I want to do that. But it made me think about newborns. I would think that would be hard to book this early though... I mean you could be early or late, the shift could be 4-6 weeks??? I'm not sure what we're going to do @Hilsy!??

    Anyone else doing maternity shots?

  33. hilsy85

    squash / 13764 posts

    @CarrieLouWho: Yup, when I emailed some photogs they said they are prepared to move the date of the shoot if the baby comes early/late...they guarantee that you will get a shoot during the first two weeks It seems difficult for sure, considering babies are so unpredictable in terms of due dates!

  34. CarrieLouWho

    persimmon / 1408 posts

    Well that's good to know! Guess I need to start researching that now :o)

  35. ninja

    kiwi / 691 posts

    @CarrieLouWho: Love the name! Probably not doing maternity shots...I generally don't like getting my picture taken.

    @hilsy85: That's awesome that they'll be able to do them no matter when! I don't think that we'll do newborn shots, persay. One of our friends has a little photog company on the side and has offered to get us some free shots if we want, so we might take him up on that.

    Thanks so much for making the list, @Hilsy85! How fun!

    We have our anatomy scan on Tuesday. I'm so excited! We're still feeling strong about Team Green. I think it really helped to finally agree on names. It's looking like we have a little "S" or little "E" on the way.

    @hilsy85: We’re planning on doing a newborn shoot in the hospital with the photog from our wedding. I don’t want any me in labor pushing baby out shots (ahhhhhh) but we really want her to capture some special moments like DH telling the family in the waiting room that baby is here and announcing his name, first family picture, the little guy with his little band that has our last name on it, first footprint, etc. I already emailed our photographer about it but we need to sit down, talk more about it and actually book. I’ll probably do that after 24 weeks.

    squash / 13764 posts

    @ninja: That's great that you have a friend who can do them...I wish I had talented friends, lol.

    @TheFixIts: aw, yay! So exciting to have narrowed it down on names. Do you have a feeling as to whether baby is a boy/girl?
    @Running Elley: That's a super cute idea...I don't actually know of any photogs around here that do that. I also feel like I will be so gross, sweaty, and exhausted that I don't know if I want photos of me at that time, lol. But I'm looking at a newborn shoot as almost our first family shoot (I'm defintely sneaking into a few pics ).

    @hilsy85: Haha I totally know what you mean I know that I’m not going to be even close to looking my best but I have a feeling that those first few moments are going to go by SO quickly and my husband is going to be way too busy to take pictures. I want to make sure to remember everything, especially with our first! I just emailed my photographer and asked if she’d be up for it. It’s not something that she normally does but she’s excited!
    I LOVE the newborn pictures that are taken later, I think that the moms especially are always glowing!

    @TheFixIts: Tuesday is going to come SO soon! I've been following your blog and based on your bump I'm guessing boy for you

    @runningelley @hilsy85 My first, first, first instinct with this pregnancy was BOY. At the time I was beyond sure. But then all the old wives tales made me second guess, and I've been pretty convinced it's a girl for some time. Funny you think I've got a "boy" bump - I was thinking it's pretty low and wide - as in "girl". In the meantime, I love guessing.

    I'm not sure what the rules are for sharing blog info/self-promotion on the hellobee boards, but it would be fun to follow fellow October baby blogs! Mine is: http://www.thefixitsblog.com Anyone else blogging?
