Cami - Good Luck! Cant wait to see pics!

 

[lilgemsy]

Cottles - Oh dear. Hope it doesnt hurt too much, and hope it actually works so any pain you get from it will be worth it!

Amethyst - Thats great news! Fingers crossed that LO stays that way now!

 

[bernina]

Wowza!! Good luck abz!

Had an awful night last night. Ate too many fresh veggies (I'm blaming the cucumbers) along with huge helpings of corned beef and corn bread and was up literally ALL NIGHT with the most terrible gas pains. I was on the floor on hands and knees, up walking around every few hours, nothing would get the gas flowing so I could get some relief. Drank water, laid on my back with my legs in the air (always worked during yoga when I didn't want it to!) nothing. I have never wanted to pass wind in my life so bad. I probably slept less than 2 hours total and am beyond exhausted today.

On a good note, had my weekly appt this morning and baby is apparently fine (HB 139, uterus measuring 38 weeks but could be all the bloating!). Not in quite as much pain but still very very uncomfortable. Anyone know any pregnancy safe remedies to release trapped gas? I may try some peppermint tea later. So uncomfy....

Hope everyone is having a lovely day, so glad it's Friday!!!

Wow, its all happening in here today!

good luck Cami, Kennyb and Abz, hopefully we have 4 more babies in the world v v soon! Abz...good luck on the home birth hun!

Cottles, hope all goes well hun!

Gem, try not to worry. One odd measurement doesn't mean much

Afm, I'm soooo tired today! cant believe some of you are still working, no idea how your doing it! Xxx

 

[bernina]

Oh yeah, got car seat base installed (felt too weird to drive around with actual car seat in so just left base) and set up pack n play which is where baby will sleep the first few weeks in our room. Just need to get some sheets and it should be all set.

Is everyone aware there is a super moon tomorrow night? It's a full moon that is exteremly close to the earth, apparently it hasn't been this close since 1993. I think it may already be impacting a few of our Apirl Sweet Peas! Can't say I'd mind if I ended up being one of them

 

[caro103]

bernia..eek not nice hun! have you tried going for a gentle walk? I find that can get things 'going' especially if its somewhere a bit private so you don't feel bad about letting rip xx

 

[2ndtimeAbz]

Some boring news on my front, but everything has ground to a halt contractions slowed and stopped, but on the bright side I've finished work 2 days early. Think if anything it was a sign to slow down!!

 

[babybefore30]

Good luck Cami and Kennyb looking forward to seeing those babies. Abs I am sure your baby is on its way just wants you to have a little rest.

 

[bernina]

Sorry things have slowed abz but I'm sure it won't be long until they start back up. Probably your body getting ready and setting things in motion.

Oh forgot to add that I tested negative for group b strep, which is a good thing since I'm allergic to the medication they prefer to give to treat it (penicillin).

Caro, I'll be going for plenty of walks today for sure. Hope it gets things moving in the right direction!

 

[caro103]

enjoy your walk bernia! I don't intend to leave the house today, its horrible and rainy out there!

 

[bernina]

enjoy your walk bernia! I don't intend to leave the house today, its horrible and rainy out there!

Thanks! For once it's glorious, sunny and warm here. Was nearly 70 degrees yesterday, makes me realize how much I hated this winter. Don't normally hate it but this was a brutal one with tons of snow and long commutes.

Hope to get out for a walk at lunch and maybe after work with DH. I'm sure winter isn't quite done with us so might as well enjoy while we can!

 

[reedsgirl1138]

Just heard from Cami...Caleb's hr rate is up and down....she is still in labor but sounds like maybe he is not tolerating it well. Say some prayers for them ladies.

 

[caro103]

gosh hope all goes well for Cami...sending her xxx

 

[x-Rainbow-x]

thinking of you cami xxxx

 

[lilgemsy]

Oh dear. Hope Cami's LO is ok. Fingers crossed for the both of them and sending lots of positive thoughts thier way! x

Lol, Berina, sorry I shouldn't laugh but I just imagined a pregnant person on thier back with thier legs up in the air trying to pass wind! xD Funny image.
But I hope the uncomfortableness eases off soon. I know its horrible when that happens! Try giving your stomach a good rub and see if you can rub it out!

Some guy I know has recently had a baby and he has got him registered yesterday with the name
"MC Prinze Skibben Bubble Shabing-Rod"
And apparently, its for real
Poor kid!

 

[chocojen]

Smeej, my OH keeps telling me to slow down as my ankles and feet are so swollen but I am not good at sitting still and I want to make the most of the time I have left before LO arrives. Am home now, stew is in the slow cokker and I am sitting with my feet up!

Abz sorry things have stopped, still sounds like things will happen soon for you

Cami hope Cleb is ok

Caro you will be pleased to hear it is pouring with rain and is cold here today!!!

We have our 3 hour antenatal class tomorrow morning....SCARY!!!

Totally understand - I am terrible at doing nothing and feel totally cabin fevered, but I literally can't walk more than 50 yards anymoe without being in bad pain- and i can't drive anymore as cant reach pedals/wheels!

Therefore, I'm pretty much housebound!
Also still feeling sh*t with this laryngitis and no voice, so can't even talk to myself and bubs nevermind anyone else

I'm sure you'll enjoy the ante natal class and it will flyby! I really enjoyed mine xx

 

[smeej]

Thoughts and Prayers to Cami xxxxxxxx I'm sure the docs will do everything they can to make sure she and Caleb are safe and well xxxxx

Bernina - that sounds so uncomfortable! Hopefully getting out and about will stimulate some movement!

Abz- think little one was def sendng signals to slow down! x

Cottles - just hope and pray that little one shifts without any intervention! There's still time so everything crossed xxxx

Gems - what a ridiculous name - the poor kid!!
