Got midwife at 2. Can't wait. It's first time meeting this one as I changed doctors, so I hope she's really nice and understanding as I'm really struggling, I'm starting to feel like I'm struggling to cope. I spent 30 mins on my ball this morning as part of my exercise regime I have to do from the physio and I felt like baby was gunna fall out after lol.

Glad to know the thirstiness seems to be a common thing. It really doesn't help with the constant weeing though!

Tracie I hope it went well meeting your new midwife x

Not sure if it's my hormones but I'm just not sure about my mw. I expressed my concerns and she shrugged them all off as normal without even asking in detail. Baby is happy tho, heart rate is a healthy 135, and I'm 3/5ths so hopefully won't go over but no doubt I'm doomed to be like this till the very end haha.

I feel the same way about my OB Tracie. I just dont really tell him anything any more because I feel embarrassed when he shrugs everything off. I hate doctors -_-

Nausea has returned for me as well. It did with DD in third tri, too. It's unfortunately a common thing.

Had my 32 week appt today and dr has agreed to do a growth scan at 38 weeks for this LO. DD was 9 lbs 4 oz at birth and I am so much more uncomfortable with this one than I was with her at this stage. I'm freaking out that this one will be 10+ lbs. On top of that, when I was pregnant with DD I had no issues with gestational diabetes, this time around I've been diagnose with glucose intolerance (not quite GD, not quite normal).

However, they're saying the only thing they'd do is either offer a csection for a large baby or an induction at 41 weeks. I'm terrified of trying to push out an 11 lb baby at 41 weeks, yet a csection is pretty much my worst case scenario for birth.

Either way, I'm going to have to wait until 38 weeks to find out how big this little girl is going to be and I'm freaking out about her potential size.

Linz I hope she's not that big! Hopefully it's just were she's sitting!

Packed most of my hospital bag tonight, it still doesn't feel real though. I'm using the bag I used with my DS and DD and we have also used the same bag to go on holiday with. DS was watching me pack my bag and he turned and asked 'mummy are you going on holiday and leaving us here?' Bless him, I explained that I would have to go to the hospital to get his new brother but he still thinks I'm going on holiday x

 

[emicakess]

Haha christiansmum he is not buying that one! You MUST be going on a secret mommy only holiday! ;P

 

[ChristiansMum]

Haha christiansmum he is not buying that one! You MUST be going on a secret mommy only holiday! ;P

I wish! I don't think pushing a baby out is much of a holiday though lol x

I have my 4d ultrasound today soo excited. I just hope our little man let's us get a peak of his face

Hope it goes well We had one last week but our LO was being a little monkey and had her hands up at her face constantly and when she eventually moved them she turned to face my back We are going back this weekend to see if they can get a shot of her face

 

[emicakess]

I really dont think this little lady will make it to 40 weeks.. I obviously could be totally wrong but idk. Just took my fourth loose bm today (TMI HAHA sorry.) And lost 3 peices of plug along with this horrible sharp pains that lasted about 10 seconds and got more intense then died down..then started up again. For like 15 minutes. They weren't what I would think of as a contraction? I have no idea what it was. But I have been having loose bms like 3 times a day every day lately. Maybe thats totally normal for a 40 week baby idk.

 

[ChristiansMum]

Now we are in July can you believe how close we all are to meeting our babies? Soon labor watch will start and all these little babies will be arriving

 

[HWPG]

just came from 35 week appt - GBS done and 1 cm dilated. having contractions (BH) but i didnt know thats what they were - but now i do!
huh. these babies really are coming!

 

[emicakess]

You are so right Christiansmum ! HWPG I have my 35 week appointment tomorrow and I HOPE he checks my cervix. I know it can't tell a lot but I just want to know

 

[Jett55]

Our little man was being very stubborn today barely let us see his face. But everything is right on track he's 3Ibs 11oz & hb was 153

I have diagnosed GD this time. Last time I was fine and didn't have GD, but did have a 9lb 10oz baby (75th percentile I think). Last time I worked right up until I had him, I had a fantastic pregnancy!

This time this baby is SO much more uncomfy!!!! My hips, my ribs,my sides.... Ugh! It feels so heavy, everything is hard work and sleep is hard!

But baby is measuring (at 32 weeks) on only the 67th percentile, so smaller than DS, despite the GD.

Basically I'm saying this to try and help your fears of having a huge baby, cos despite feeling SO much more uncomfy this time,baby is measuring smaller for me! GD only causes huge babies if its way out of control really; most big babies are just genetically big! If you don't have GD and were only borderline, the n your blood sugars obviously aren't totally out of whack and I'm certain you'll be fine. Xxx

It looks like my lo Will be here early. I'm hospitalized due to high bp/possible preeclampsia starting. They are trying some meds on me and if we can get them down I can go home on bedrest, but they said expect to be here till the babys born which will pry be around 34 weeks. Not the news I wanted, I came in for a headache that wouldn't go away and ended up in l&d. Poo. At least I got steroids this time so baby has a better chance

 

[Ashley8806]
