Title: Pregnancy Update
Post by: MelissaCharliesMom on June 19, 2008, 06:31:36 PM
I know its a touchy subject and I dont mean to cause any bad memories, but lots of you have asked for updates. I had a regular check up today and all seems well I am just a few weeks away from the half way mark. Ive gained 4 lbs, but it looks like lots more!!!Since this is my 5th pregnancy my body definately changed far quicker. Ive got a baby bump and I am at the point where my maternity clothes are going to have to come out. Anyway, all looks good the babys heart rate today was 151 and strong. I will have my complete ultrasound on July 17 hopefully we will know then if we are having a Landon or a Sophia/Chloe (havent decided on the girls name yet).
Just thought I should post this here instead of trying to e mail everyone back individually. I hope no one takes offense to this.
Sending strength and peace.

I come over here from the main board and the photo of Charlie draws me back time again, a most precious boy. Thank you for posting such a stunning photo. Good wishes and prayers to your family.

Melissa,

Great news!!!!  I am excited for you.  I love the names and drawn to Chloe since I have a little 6 month old twin granddaughter named Chloe...she just lights up the room when she comes in.  Her twin's name is Chad.

Thanks for the update,
Jeanne
Philip's mom forever

the names are ones I would pick.  Chloe is my fav.   but I also like Charlotte,  which the female version of Charles.   You could nick name her "web" from Charlottes web and from webhealing.   ;D

or not.    but  maybe Sophia Charlotte  or Charlotte Sophia.    ???     

  I just love naming babies.

Congtatulations.
 I cant wait to hear what we're having!

Congratulations on the newest edition to your family. I agree the older you are the quicker it seems our bodies change when we are pregnant.

Hi Melissa ~

Just read your post and I too love your name choices . . . of course I'm hoping you have a boy because "Landon" would be awesome !!! Not that I'm biased or anything!!!  ;)    When I was pregnant with Landon, we didn't have a clue what we were going to name him.  Well, I used to watch "Little House on the Prairie" every morning before work and had a dream one night with Michael Landon in it.  When I woke up, I told my husband, "Why don't we name him Landon?" and that's how our little guy got his name!!

As for a girls name, I like Chloe but haven't met any Sophia's yet so that might be a neat name to choose. 

Can't wait to find out the news on what you're having . . . good luck & let us all know what you're having when you find out k???  Take care of yourself . . .

Landon's Mom forever,

Shelly
