When is your baby due? Is it your first? Boy or Girl?

Due April 15th this will actually be my 3rd... but you know its sooooo new every time... I have 2 girls ages 10 and 5. We do not know the sex of the baby but we really don't have any preference. This will be my fiance's first baby as my first 2 were from my first marriage. Been a very nervous one so far... my fiance went into labour at 31 weeks and was given medication to stop it... tonight b4 se left for teaching a girl guide class she had actually been having some small contractions about every 30 minutes... she will call if anything changes... very exciting and scary... she is now at 34 weeks hopefully she can hold on for another 6

She should drink lots and lots of water, and rest some right now. LOTS AND LOTS of water!

Congratulations!

By the way... you maybe should stay close to home or by a phone or beeper.

Muscles can get irritable when they are dehydrated... spasms and cramps (and contractions) happen....

Thank you very much and I am sure I'll find a moment to brag when the time comes...
goodmorphing I think you ment that I should drink lots and lots of water... cause I do recall forgetting about myself the 2 previous times and getting pretty dehydrated... actually she just arrived home and we will be together a lot this weekend ... moving to a bigger apartment, need an extra room!

Hmmm......children. I've got a daughter still living at home. She's 25, and still hasn't grown up. Static beware. Be very aware. Their cute only when very young. Like kittens, they grow up to be cats. Ruthless. Demanding. Still ya gotta love'em. >

Just wait Weaksid your turn will come. OC has not only his daughter living with him, but her children as well. (Grankids). Plus I have my aged old parents here as well! I did manage to get my granny to an Old Folks Home a year ago though, now if only I could get my aged old parents to move out...and my daughter...is it possible that a Young Folks Home exists somewhere? Static....congrats...have fun while your young.

Very cute link!!

And congrats for the new baby to come!

Static,
better keep your fiancé off her feet and make sure she is drinking her water. I dealt with a couple months of pre-term labor followed by a 3 week preemie. Not fun. Keep her off her feet so that she doesn't have to be put on more meds or put in the hospital. Also, make sure she calls her Dr. "just to be safe". I had to sleep in a recliner for 3 weeks since laying down would start contractions. Not fun. Hope they stop for your fiancé and she gets some good rest. She will need it once that baby gets there

Hope everything goes well for the both of you, and CONGRATULATIONS on the expectant little one!!!!! We will need pictures once the baby is here! (Just make sure that your fiancé has time to prep for them so she doesn't get mad at you )

Yes, enjoy them while you can. My daughter is 33 and is still home most of the time. @ kids, 1-12 and 1-4mo. Seems like I might have to raise both of them instead of being the grandpa.

I dunno, but its different here in India. We PREFER generations to stay together at one place, We have the 'joint-family' system where grandparents, uncles and aunts, cousins, etc. all stay together.

Yours would have been an ideal family, WOM, (except that the son stays with the family and the daughter goes to reside with the in-laws..) But as jake11 said, times are changing.
