I have Great News!!!!!!!

[DianaB]

Dae Lynn and Damon came out this morning to talk to Glen and I. As soon as they walked into the door Karlie shouted out "We're going to have a baby!!!" We're so excited!! It's been 7 years since we've had a baby in the family and we're looking forward to having another one!!! Dae Lynn's not sure how far along she is because her periods are very irregular. Her last one was in December so we'll have to wait for a sonogram to find out when she's due. She always figured that when she was ready to have a baby that it would be hard to get pregnant because of her periods but I guess that God had other plans for her!!!! Wow!!! A new baby.......I'm so ready!!!!

Oh WOW!!! Congrats to your new grandbaby & to your daughter & SIL & Karlie
New babies are always exciting, exspecially when they are your own.

Wonderful news Diana....nothing better than a baby! Congratulations to the whole family!!!

I can feel the excitement in your words, Diana! You are such a special lady, that new baby is mighty lucky!!!

[DianaB]

Thanks everyone. I am excited! I always love having a new little one to cuddle and I can't wait to start shopping for her/him!!!

When Dae Lynn and Damon were here Glen made a comment about the baby not needing everything new and Dae Lynn agreed with him. Then Glen pointed out that he was talking to ME!!! He was joking but he knows me well!!!

[Blueyes]

Yippee!!! That's great news!! I'm expecting my first grand daughter in the middle of September. You and I can be "expectant" together

Congratulations!

[DianaB]

The medicine is working and Dae Lynn is much, much better this morning. She was able to go to work. Yay!!

[Janet]

How long does morning sickness last?

[DianaB]

On me it usually lasted until I was about 5 months along so she's got a ways to go. Poor girl.

She's hardly eating because nothing sounds good right now except ham sandwiches and a few other things. She knows that she has to eat though. As I said, Poor girl!!

Diana !!! Congratulations I am so happy to hear about the baby coming. I can feel for Dae Lynn I use to get morning sickness at the beginning to, back then they didnt give you anything.. I hope that she is feeling better soon. So happy for the whole family .

Betsi Congratulations to you too!! Wonderful news

Congradulations! How exciting. My sister is due in November with her first baby, she has been pretty sick and that started very early on. She is a labor and delivery nurse and is only working a few more weeks. Ow exciting, I love babies and we haven't had a baby in the family since my other sister had my nephew and he is 7 years old .

Awwww, hope the morning sickness goes away very soon!!! I had it for a while with both my girls. I kept saltine crackers by the bed and found that if I munched on a few of them before getting up, it helped significantly. My employer at the time, or rather my boss, cut no slack. I had to be there every day with no excuses. I was the first one in his department to have a baby in several years. He actually gave me a lower performance rating the year I had Karen because I had taken off for maternity leave and wasn't there to do my job, and someone else had to do it for me. What a jerk. Today they wouldn't get away with it, but that was 24 years ago.

So hope Dae Lynn is in a good understanding work situation!!!

[DianaB]

Dae Lynn works at a pharmacy and they've been very understanding. Matter of fact she's going in late this morning because she's not feeling well. They've been really good to her about all of this even though they're a little short handed with people on vacations.

I'm glad she's feeling better. I'm sure this heat isn't helping any.

There's a couple down the road from us having SIX. She's about 20 weeks and has been in the hospital on bedrest for a couple weeks. They have a website: stanseljourney.com. Several things about their story bothers me, but I'm trying not to be too judgmental.
