We had no idea how to change a diaper or how to monitor Alice's hunger and when to feed her or if she was just cold or had gassies! Seriously, we had no idea. They are wonderful at Prentice, truly wonderful. Basically at first little baby people are just hungry, poopy, tired or cold. You are trained by those little creatures to learn which cry means which concern! I must say too that we learned so much from reading and from asking friends. Some times you won't get it right, but you will learn because you are both awesome and amazing! Rest assured that the basics will be taught at Prentice!

I've got the same worries, but I'm sure those built in mommy-genes will kick in and we'll figure it all out. This time next year we'll be pros :) -Kate (Due 03/19/10) You are not alone my friend!

My doctor would get concerned about me because I would not gain a single pound until about 22 weeks, and then all of a sudden the weight started pouring on. Not to scare you, but in my 3rd trimester I managed to gain 10 pounds in 2 weeks! As long as you're not overdoing it on the bad foods then I would say it's normal. Plus my doctor told me that a lot of it was water weight and fluids since pregnant women have a tendency to retain water. It's never fun to see the scale go up, but it's what your baby needs. It's just one of the sacrifices we mommies make for our babies. ~Amy It’s normal!

No doubt about it. That thing he's holding isn't really a remote - it's most definitely an iPhone! Yep. That's my boy, alright. I'm a Mac, and so's My Boy! ;-) So, looking at the cartoon closely, this is definitely my son. No doubt about it. That thing he’s holding isn’t really a remote – it’s most definitely an iPhone! Yep.

The only thing that would make it even more apropos is if he was holding a Nintendo, PS3 or some other gaming system (I'm not up to speed on all the options). Congrats on finding out the sex!

If you little man is that active in JoAnne's belly he is going to be a wild one on the outside too! Both of our kids were the same way, and, well...you've seen them :) Congratulations! We're very happy to hear that everything looked great, and that there will be a mini-Vik gracing our presence in the not too distant future! You’d better get your rest now!

My hubby is getting so jealous because I'm feeling movement and he can't yet. Mine isn't quite AS pronounced as yours probably is because I'm only 17 weeks, but it's definitely baby!
