BD'ing my butt off--whose in it for November??

[MommyNikki]

So I went in to the drs today for the pain I've been having...they couldn't tell me much but they did check me and I'm not dialated. They also did a sono and said that his head is pushing right into my pelvis and he doesn't seem to wanna curl up, instead he is sprawled out lol plus they said he's 4lbs right now...I don't see the pain going away til he's out

 

[Womble12]

Hi all,

4lbs nikki?? How many weeks are you? Guy at my work, his wife just gave birth 3 weeks early and the baby was 4lbs! That's small tho! Hopefully you feel reassured all is alright.

How you feeling today Jenna, any better?

I'm late for work, had terrible nights sleep, feel like crap but on my way in now. Off tomorrow for midwife and rhesus negative injection so hopefully I'll catch up on some sleep then. Then Italy on Friday, tho weather is looking bad, but I don't care, be nice to be away and try and sleep!!!

Jess and Jenna, has all your baby stuff arrived now??

Bailey, I hope your appt doesn't take too long to come around, I've also heard good things about clomid so fingers crossed. Imagine if you ended up with twins, 241, & you would be sorted !!! Tara I can't remember, you booking an appt with your docs?

Hope everybody else is well, I have read the posts but my minds gone blank as to what everyone said, sorry.

Oh any word from Naomi anyone? Hope you're ok Naomi.

 

[bazzb]

Enjoy Italy that's so awesome!!

I checked Naomi profile and she was online yesterday just not posting
Hope your okay Hun xx

Nikki this little guy us causing u pain already I think he is going to keep you in your toes

 

[mackjess]

Hey ladies. Bailey glad your appointment went well, And as the others have said I've heard wonderful things about clomid! Hope your specialist appointment comes round quickly, and glad you're feeling chilled out in the meantime.
Thanks jess- it's not so
Bad I guess and a small price to pay to protect my wee man.
Hope all you ladies are doing well. I'm feelin pretty pants today. Dunno why. Just no energy at all and feel kinda Achey. Has a rubbish nights sleep- ended up having to try and sleep sitting up due to my reflux and carpal tunnel so I'm guessing that's prob why. Poor hubby been working all day and is gonna come home to a messy house and a slobby wife! Lol. Hope I get a better sleep tonight and feel
More human tomorrow. Yesterday I was feeling so good and felt like time was flying, and today I feel like the next 8 weeks are gonna drag! I just wanna meet my wee man!
Bought more bits an bobs last night- steriliser, bottles, monitors etc. excited for everything coming.. Should be here tomorrow xxx

Dolly, I'm right there with you. I don't know what happened. Over all I've felt really good. I have had more problems with colds/sinuses, which is typical for me, than the pregnancy itself. But something changed. LOL. I woke up last Tuesday feeling like I'd been run over by a freight train. 8 more weeks!!! We can do it.

I get my swimsuit back today, I had to take it in to get the straps shortened since I'm so short. I was afraid to do it myself and mess it up and have a wardrobe malfunction at the pool I'm hoping if I do some swimming, and my OB said I could dip my legs in the hot tub for awhile to help with my swelling and circulation, that I'll feel better tomorrow. Not complaining mind you, but I'm ready for the end date!

Nikki - sorry to hear about the pain. I just started to get sharp jabs myself. So far he is still breech, so I'm hoping some of that is from him turning is butt around. I know that I have "high normal" amount of fluid, part of the reason I measure so far ahead when they do the external measurement, so I still feel pretty good about him having room to flip over. I just hope he does it soon!

Oh boy, I think it was Womble that asked about bits and bobs? I just picked up the last thing I had ordered last night off my registry. It shipped to the store, I had to have DH drive me, and I didn't even have the energy to go until 30 minutes before the store closed! I had the baby shower right on time! I have everything laundered and sorted, but it's sorted across the chair and ottoman, and crib in the room. I am just keeping the dogs out of there until I muster up the energy to actually go put everything away.

I'm supposed to have my bags packed this week. The birthing class said to do it by 32 weeks. I think I'll pack his bag this week, and throw a change of clothes for daddy in there. But we don't have the hospital tour til next week. I might wait until then to pack my bag. I think they provide gowns, robes, slippers, blow dryers, etc, so I want to check out all their stuff before I over pack.

Hi everyone! hope you are having a great week.

[MommyNikki]

I feel you guys on the energy thing, I have none and its embarrassing how easily winded I get...I got somethings to help me eat better cause I'm eating more and I've already gained 40lbs this pregnancy and I'm losing hope that I will ever have a pre-baby body again.

Bailey how are you? I wish you lived just a tad but closer cause it would be nice to have someone to pal around with..I've been real bored lately.

Womble I do feel better that he is 4lbs I have to have a c section anyways so he can get nice and plump if that's what he wants to do lol ill just be uncomfortable.

Mack it's gonna to feel so weird when baby finally flips lol at least for now you won't have to worry about feet stuck in your ribs, I can't remember which baby did that to me all the time but it hurts lol

Naomi sorry your LO got chicken pox ...did he ever get the vaccine as a baby? I think 99% of people in the US get the vaccines for them as a newborn. I'm sure it's real uncomfortable. Hope he gets better soon

 

[bazzb]

Hey Naomi sorry your babes have the chicken pox hope they feel better soon
And yay for your app!! I hope mine comes soon tool
Xoxoxo

Nikki we are so close yet so far away
Would love to be there for you and the kids though I'm sure we would have a blast love to u x

Yah for mat leave ladies omg we r gonna have some babies on here soon!!!! Yay

 

[gnomette]

Nikki the vaccine only started to be given to newborns about a year ago so so both of mine are too old to have had it x sounds like your baby is going to be a good size did you say you had to book a section?

 

[MommyNikki]

Yea I will have to just because my last 2 were c sections. I failed to progress with my daughter so they automatically scheduled me one with my son and now with this baby. It's too risky to try vbac plus after having my stomach cut up I'm trying to keep anything else I can in tact lol

 

[mtln777]

Hey everyone wow we are in the home stretch cannot believe we are going to have some babies on here pretty soon..........Naomi and Bailey we will get there God just wants us to wait a bit longer xoxoxoxoxo

Jess, my last pregnancy Natalie was breech from 28 weeks on and when I was 38 weeks pregnant I woke up in the middle of the night and screaming something was wrong and it was just the little devil I have flipping around, some people can't feel it some can I DID!!!! So it can happen up to delivery....

So glad all of u ladies are getting ur nursery's together bump pix please!!!!!! Then I would like some nursery pix!!! lol I cannot believe we are sooooo close to having babies on this thread.......

Nicky How is spain how are u feeling????? We miss u!

Off to lay in the sun and perhaps swim in my 30degree pool well I will be watching from the sidelines lol unless it gets to hot for me...

Hope everyone has a terrific day lots of love and

 

[Dollybird]

Wow nikki 4lbs that's a brilliant size! Always good I have a big baby my midwife says! Sorry you're sore though.
Sophie I'm feeling much better- although still not sleeping much but heyho that's life I guess! Lol. How u getting on?
Naomi sorry about the pox! Poor kiddies I still remember having it and I was only four at the time but the experience has stayed with me. Better they get it now though rather than later. Hope you are ok.
Jess you sound much more organised than me!'our nursery is still a mess, although hubby is hopefully gonna set up the cot today! Glad u mentioned packing hospital bag- I wasn't too sure when to get mine ready.. But I guess if u are then I will too!! Hope your bubs turns around soon. My last appointment was 28 weeks and he was breech then, but I'm pretty sure he's turned now.. For mw next week so will hopefully find out then.. Fingers crossed that I'm right and he's turned!
Aw Tara you and your
Pool.... I'm sooooooo jealous!!!!!! Lol. Wish I was laying by a pool right now.. No such luck in sunny Scotland! Lol. Although its turned into a nice enough day.. But certainly not sunbathing weather!
Bailey, Nicky, hope you two are both doing well!!
Afm well I bought my wee mans "coming home from hospital" outfit.. It's mega cute! Will post a pic
Later.. Along with a lovely bump pic! Hehe. Xxx

 

[bazzb]

Can't waiter pics Jenna!!! Xx

Yay dr office called me I have my specialist ap with the gyno on June 19

 

[mackjess]

Ha Dolly I'm not so organized. I thought about taking a nursery pic for Tara this morning, showing the rocker/recliner covered with little stacks of clothes. They are sorted by size/category, but they are all on the chair or the laundry basket still! And the crib is full of stuff still in boxes, and 2 strollers pushed over in the corner. Hopefully this weekend I get it set up. I just need to figure out how to put the clothes away so DH can figure out what to dress him in.

Hope you are feeling better now that you are off.

Tara, mark me down as another one jealous of your pool. Just got my mat swimsuit yesterday and planned on going to one of the outdoor public pools(had to get the straps shortened so I don't "bust" out at the pool) but it's been storming out! I may have to go to a gym with an indoor pool or something.

 

[Dollybird]

Here's his wee outfit! And honestly the pic doesn't do it justice it's just so little and cute in real life! Gonna team it with red socks, a wee white hat, and either a red or navy knitted cardigan! Xxz

 

[mackjess]

super cute dolly!

Bailey! Good news about the appointment!

 

[bazzb]

Jenna just adorable!!!

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Naomi- hope your kiddos get better soon! I hate it when Mikey is sick!

Jenna- that's adorable!

Bailey- yay for the appt! I bet your super excited!

Jess- it stinks that it's been so rainy and stormy here, our backyard is like a swamp! I think we've got like 4ins of rain since Monday!

AFM- I scheduled my hospital pre-admission yesterday. It's in 3 weeks, I can't believe it! As for the nursery, it's no where near done! Lol! We have to get the rest of the "junk" out, then hubby has to paint it before I can get it set up. We have all the furniture, since we are using Mikey's old crib and everything.

Here's my new bump pic...

 

[Dollybird]

Lovely bump pic Amanda!! What is your pre admission? Don't think we do that here for labour. Xxx

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Lovely bump pic Amanda!! What is your pre admission? Don't think we do that here for labour. Xxx

The pre-admission is just to fill out paperwork, like with insurance info and all that stuff so you don't have to worry about it when your in labor!

 

[nicky160880]

Hi girls. Sorry it's been so long since I've posted. I'm rubbish!!
Just been super busy with building, planning, business and of course little isla.
No problems to report with bump ( thank god because no way could j be doing all this stuff if she wasn't behaving!!). We got our first wedding booking today so that's exciting but now the pressure is really on to get finished and get the place looking fab.
I have now registered with the matrona (midwife) here in Spain and she is super nice. And thank The Lord she speaks good English. Getting bloods, glucose and another scan next Wednesday. Weather is beautiful 24 degrees and sunny today but unfortunately I'm inside a bar with wifi looking for boilers/toilets/solar panels etc. anyway all good here.
Missing family and friends but nice to have u guys just a little bit wifi away
Glad everyone seems to be doing ok and wow Nikki 4lbs is a good size they will measure mine on Wednesday so hope she isn't too wee.
Anyway must go just now. Take care ladies. Xxx
