Hellobee Boards

I will for sure add P's stats, but she won't be one until early May! I do remember how exciting the WB thread was last year with everyone about to go into labor. Feels like yesterday and a lifetime ago at the same time!!

I'm subscribing! But LO won't be 1 until early May, so I'll jump back in then.

@bpcmarj: What is your LO's birthday?

My LO's 1 year appt. is on 4/19, a day before her birthday party! I can't believe she's going to be one!

Hi spring baby friends! DD will be 1 on Monday, but her 1-year appt isn't for a couple more weeks. I think she is slimming down a bit to have percentile numbers more like when she was born, but we'll see soon. What fun new things are all of your LO's doing? DD isn't quite walking or saying any recognizable words yet... although she "talks" *all* the time. She is a very chatty baby. Her most exciting recent milestone (to me at least) is that she learned how to crawl backwards down the two steps leading down into our bedroom that we can't gate off. Previously she always tried to go down head first, but now she understands what it takes to do it safely.

I'll check back in in a few weeks when I have some actual numbers to post!

@Weagle: she is May 7th (but I was due April 23rd!).

@bree72: that was a fun thread:) I don't think everyone from it is over here though! But, there are a lot of us!

@bpcmarj: Just one day older than mine :).

LO won't be 1 until early May, but I can't wait to see his year stats compared to his birth stats! And I can't believe I'll already be 22 weeks pregnant with #2 on his first birthday!

@mrsjazz: amazing!

@mrsjazz: @bree72: When is your LO's birthday? Our party is the 20th too! His bday is April 18th! Can't believe it's already that time!

@mrsaudi: Our LOs were born on April 17.

@regberadaisy: I know, it is amazing. So weird to see such a little thing walking.

Hi everyone! I haven't joined in the spring 2012 threads before but want to get involved!

DS was born on 3/15/12 and was 1 month early. He spent 1 week in the NICU and weighed in at 6lbs 1oz and 18 inches long. At his 1 year appointment he weighed 20lbs 12oz and is 29 1/2 inches! He holds pretty steady around the 25 percentile.

DS is a super busy boy who gets into everything. He isn't walking yet but is jabbering a lot and we think he is starting to say hi.

Oh and @regberadaisy: We just started to ttc#2. I hope it goes well!

Happy birthday to all your spring babies!

Fun! Little M will be 1 on 4/28, we will have her appt on 4/29 so I'll chime in then. Looking forward to seeing what the spring 2012 babies are up to a year later! Craziness!

DS was born 3/23/12 and was 7 lbs, 6 oz and 21" at birth. Today, at his one year appointment, he was 21 lbs exactly (25%) and 30.5 inches (75%). He took his first steps a month ago, but he is a very cautious walked (not at all like his big sister). He will walk up to 10 steps at a time, and is getting more confident, but he still prefers to hold someone' hand while he walks. He is, however, a pretty confident climber and can go all the way up and down the stairs by himself!

DS signed his first word, "dog," at 9 months; he now signs 8 words ("all done," "more," "eat," "milk," "dog," "blanket," "water," and "sister"). He said his first word, "dog," at 10 months, and now says 5 words ("dog," "mama," "dada," "ball," and "that"). He also points a lot to let us know what he wants, and he quacks and barks (which is hilarious!).

DS is petty happy and easy going most the time, but he is a super momma's boy. He cries hysterically if I leave him or walk out of the room, and he tries to push his sister out of my lap when she wants a little love. He's usually very affectionate, though, and likes to give hugs to everyone and everything (including blankets, pillows, floors, windows, and trees), and he likes to "pose" with his hands behind his head and his feet kicked up. He's a big ham!

@winniebee: I think we are both the peanuts of the group. B turns 1 on may 31... Where did time go??

@mrsjazz: ooh, LO's appt is on the 18th, but she turns 1 on the 12th. I can't believe how quickly time flies!!

@Freckles: Thank you! And hopefully I'll get to say happy birthday to your LO soon.

(Also, don't feel jealous. DS is developing so much differently from DD, I have to keep reminding myself that they're different kids and they all eventually end up with the same achievements, even if they take different paths to get there.

Just back from M's 1 yr appt- 19.4 pounds , 28 3/4 ". Holding stay at 40% and 30% percentiles.... Born at 6.14 and 19". Left w/ three shots and a finger prick for blood test... Her stranger anxiety was in full force today.

@runsyellowlites: Good job, P!

I like reading all of these updates. Keep em coming!

DS will be one may 2nd and his appointment is the following week. I will be 26 weeks pregnant when he turns one! Whoa!
He's walking all over the joint and climbing on everything. I can't believe they are all going to be one, or already are!

DS was born on March 26, 2012, 7 lbs 11 oz and 20" long. At his 1 year appointment he was 24 lbs 5 oz and 30.5".

He has been walking since 10 months (omg I am so tired!) and he just started sleeping through the night. Since he was sick so much over the winter I had a really hard time getting rid of the 2 am wake up. I am so happy its over! We have the occasional middle of the night wake up but that's ok.

I know he says "ba" for bottle and for ball. I'm still working on deciphering other words. We are trying to get rid of the bottle but its been a nightmare at daycare before nap so I have a feeling it might take some more time.

I keep saying I'm not ready for number 2 but if it were to happen I think we would be okay. We aren't preventing but I have unexplained infertility so if it happened on its own I would be very surprised.
