Hi everyone! I posted waaaay back when I first found out I was pregnant. I have a history of pre-eclampsia and HELLP Syndrome with my 2nd son, so I was hesitant about posting since I didn't know if I'd actually make it to May, so I've always just lurked. Since I've officially made it to May with no signs of pre-eclampsia (yay!) I thought I'd see if I could officially join the club. I'm scheduled for a c-section on Tuesday morning and we are expecting # 3, a girl. I have 2 boys, Austin, 7 and Tanner, 5. We're naming her Payton Summer (although dh is still on the fence about the middle name...he likes Avery). I live in Southern California (Valencia area) and am a SAHM. I look forward to getting to know you all better and hope you'll have me here!

Hi. Welcome to DIM! Good to hear no pre-e for you so far. We are in the midst of a baby explosion right now on the board. lol

I remember you! How could anyone forget those adorable boys of yours! Congratulations on your little girl. Can't wait to hear when she makes her arrival. Her name is precious!

It's so nice to have another SoCal mommy here! You're actually not too far away from me. I live in Ventura County. How have you been feeling with this heat? It's probably 10 times worse where you are, I've been so thankful for the beach breeze.

Thanks everyone! Carley, the kids and I take a trip to San Buenaventura beach at least twice a week during the summer, I love that area! Not to mention going to the Ventura County fair! If it wasn't so far from dh's work, I would love to live there.
