Hey ladies!!

I have my 35 week apt today and am getting my group strep B swab as well. I was getting some crazy pressure in my bum last night, as well as tummy tightenings. They probably lasted about 30 min, then passed.

How is everyone today?

 

[brookettc3]

I have an appt today as well I dont think I will be getting my group b test until next week or the following week. I Want to be checked so bad but I doubt I am dilated or anything. I will let you know what the doctor says

Good luck at your apt too!! Yes, let us know what the doc says. I am not sure if my OB will check to see if I am dilated either. I will update when I get back GL

 

[brookettc3]

So I just got home from my doctors appt.... He did an ultrasound and a cervical check.... my kidney has gotten worse so they did the ultrasound to check to see if they could do an amniocentesis and if the results came back okay they would take him right away but because my placenta is large and anterior he cant sooo he did an exam and I am 1cm dilated and favorable.. he will be inducing my labor March 14th or 16th depending on how I am doing... He said based off my exam I should have a very quick labor nothing long and drawn out So happy to hear this news!

 

[Marlee]

brooke - that's great news!

I also went to the DR today, baby is head down, hope he stays that way! Trying to get everything in order - can't wait to see everyone's little bundles!

 

[brookettc3]

Thank you Marlee I can't even believe it!! I am getting so anxious now!! Time needs to speed up!
That's awesome that your LO is head down! Is your nursery set up yet?

 

[Mari30me]

Brooke - so glad your exam went well. Sorry your kidney is worse March 14 or 16 is soo close. That is great your are already starting to dilate too!

Marlee - that is great your baby is head down My little guy is and I hope that does not change.

I just had my OB exam and I am NOT dilated yet! lol She did tell me that since this is my 3rd, my baby may not even drop until I am already in labor. I will be induced 3 weeks tomorrow! yay! March 22 is the day. I am seeing my OB every week now until delivery. My next apt is Wed March 7th. She will check me again to see if I have dilated. SO bring on my exercise ball, walking and sex! lol

Thank you This is my 3rd as well I am sooo surprised that I am already showing signs of being ready! I think my body knows to start because of the stress of the kidney problem.
I started taking Raspberry leaf capsules and I will be starting evening primrose oil tomorrow when it comes hopefully that helps... I am going to try everything I can to go into labor naturally! My next appt is march 7th as well at 10AM I will be getting my group B strep test and re examined... lets hope more more CM! My hubby is gonna be stoked when I start DTD with him again! I dont even remember the last time... I feel so gross

 

[Marlee]

I think I can actually say my nursery is done...that feels weird to say

 

[Dorian]

I'm sorry about your kidney Brooke, but good news on baby!

Great nursery Marlee! Glad baby is head down. I can't wait for my next apt, it's next Wed.

 

[BWilliams]

Ok girls this is my first baby so I'm not sure about some of the things going on but lately I've been having a weird pain in my vagina and it's not like him hitting my cervix I know what that feels like lol this is like a sharp pain any ideas?

 

[brookettc3]

I have read that sharp pains is usually the baby laying on nerve endings in the cervix... Means he has dropped though

 

[BWilliams]

Thanks! That explains it because I've noticed he's dropping!

 

[brookettc3]

When my LO dropped I felt kind of an aching feeling for a while and I feel TONS of pressure down there...

Ps I love your LO's name!!!

 

[PinkmummyOf3]

Great to see how well everyone is doing, very exciting. Can't wait to see lots of pics of new babies! I feel so far behind everyone at the moment...feels like I have ages to go!

[Tilly87]

Brooke- Sorry about your kidney, but great news on getting your induction fixed and hopefully your labour is as straight forward as hoped.

Marlee- Congrats on LO being head down!
