Elt yay we have scans on the same day....what time is yours hun? Mine is at 8:30am thankfully so we can literally wake up and get ready straight away without having to worry about it all day.

Thanks for the poll Gem I'll vote next Thurs after the scan. Have a feeling I will be voting team pink, but we'll see next week! Yay for seeing Oscar again

Wow you girls are so chatty haha I really cannot keep up!

I ended up in the after hours last night with what we think was a panic attack Ive been super stressed this pregnancy and havent felt well for weeks and weeks, been getting headaches all the time, crap appetite and feeling yuck in general. Im not sure what happened, I just couldnt breathe great and got shakey and felt a bit sick, and my bump went all tight(BH I think) and I was tight chested for ages afterwards and a bit crampy so went and got checked out, everything was fine, apart from a low grade fever that fact I have UTI! Which explains why Ive been feeling awful for weeks! So Ive started Anti-bs and hopefully I come right! I would never have known I had a UTI had I not gone in last night, I havent had any(that Ive noticed) burning when I pee or cloudy pee, its been a bit dark sometimes but I just put that down to pregnancy! So yep! UTI...funnn

Its my first borns 5th Birthday tomorrow! He was born June 23rd 2008 at 1.03am! His first day of school on Monday! Im in slight shock lol!

those are no fun either of them! hope it clears up fast!!!!!

Flowermum, sry to see that it's been a rough few weeks I hope the uti gets cleared up and you'll be feeling great in no time! As for headaches, make sure you drink lots of water and ask about magnesium supplements if you aren't already on them. It can't hurt, can only help! I know sometimes with them tho, they just are there and won't go away. I pray they do for you!!!
I hope you have fun celebrating the bday

Good Morning Ladies, I hope everyone had a great Friday evening. I was awake til 5am this morning as at 1:30am Zaya decided that moving was a great idea. Don't get me wrong, I loved feeling her move, I just didn't expect off and on for many hours. LOL Then, at like 2am the storms started up in our area. SO, since I HATE storms I was awake til after they passed. I was awoken by a much needed surprise... morning SEX yippee!!! LOL and then DH made me scrambled eggs, toast,a nd sausage so all in all a good morning.

Mine's at 11am, and I'm just so ready to find out the gender! I want to start buying stuff!!

Good luck to you! I'm sure everything will go fine.

Gemie- Could you please add my November 16th due date to the first page? It's so busy in here, I'm sure you just missed it! All though the 16th is my official due date, I will likely have a scheduled c section a little earlier than that due to gestational diabetes, but I'll let you know that date later when I find out! Thanks

 

[peanutmomma]

we can't forget Tower is team pink too and since we can't vote for her. PInk is winning thus far at the moment LOL.
I think I will try to find cool fabric for baby wraps too. I am so excited to start carrying her in slings and wraps!!
We went to some thrift shops today and bought a few car seat toys and a play mat and two baby blankets. Super awesome. Also, a sound only new in box, baby monitor for $4.

 

[littlerhody95]

I'm due November 7th. I find out what I'm having on Monday.

Just wait!! With my first, by the third trimester it would be like he was having soccer practice in there and he always would get going around the time I laid down to go to sleep. He would kick me so hard I called him my bunny rabbit-- and when he was born he did have (relatively) big feet!

No worries. When did you find out you had GD? Did you have any symptoms if you don't mind me asking x

I forgot to post this yesterday to you. Don't let them discourage you into thinking you will have a c-section. I am a type 1 Diabetic have been for 20 years and this is my first pregnancy. I didn't have insurance nor good control of my disease at all when I finally became pregnant. I bet my blood sugars and everything are so much worse than yours. Actually, I even bet that your Hemoglobin A1c test they check for the average is better than mine will ever dream to be. And that said, I am not planning on a C-section for my little girl. I am in MN and go to the Mayo Clinic where they are seeing me every 2-3 weeks til 24 weeks probably. Then, every week til she is born. I will be checked at 34 weeks to see what she weighs and such. And they tell me the ONLY way they really like to shedule C-sections with Diabetic momma or GD mommas is if baby is projected to weigh OVER 10 lbs. In general they like ALL type of Diabetic mommas to reach 38 weeks naturally. But, things can happen. If you have any questions feel free to PM me I will answer whatever you like.

21 weeks today and a banana!!! Yippee!! And Zaya gave us her first "no-doubt" kick last night when DH was holding my belly. It was neat! I have officially gained 1.2lbs. go me, right? LOL Anyways, I had a dream about going into labor last night. It is funny because that is the second night in a row I have had a dream about labor and the first time I had the dream 2 days ago was after I was sewing the slings together I had gotten up to "WEE" and noticed I had...erm... not soaked, but definitely WET myself with no knowledge what so ever! OOPS!! So, DH now lightly teases me when I laugh or whatever and will put his hands between my legs and tell me nope still okay so far!! BRAT!! I tell you I love him though.

So, I read this morning that baby can weigh anywhere between 12-16oz. this week wow!! a whole pound? Craziness!! Even though they are focusing on Zaya's heart for the scan Tuesday I will try to see if they will tell me her stats. I am wondering if that is why I gained the weight.

I actually found out super early at about 10 weeks! They tend to test early if the mother is high risk (with me it was overweight and strong family history). I did not have any symptoms, but to anyone who does, and thinks they could have GD...make sure you ask to be checked early, because it can cause heart defects and other issues with the baby if not under control!

Hope you saw my message to you. And yes it can cause baby heart problems and to be hypoglycemic when born, meaning the baby's blood sugar is low alot and they usually have to supplement breast milk with high protein formula for a few days. That is why I have a Fetal Cardiogram on Tuesday
