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

[bazzb]

Oh how sweet!!!!!!! He is so cute

 

[Dollybird]

Aw Amanda he's mega cute! Xxx

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Where has Nicky been? I hope everything is ok with her!

Jenna, Jess & Nikki, how are you ladies feeling? It sure is getting close! You all have about a month left, if that!

AFM- I cannot believe how close I am getting! Now it seems like this pregnancy has flown by, but at the beginning it felt like it was dragging! Lol! We are actually going to be home this weekend, and I told John that I want to get the baby's room cleaned out and painted so I can get everything ready...I want to nest, but I can't since I need him to paint! I got my 10% off coupon for my registry at Target yesterday, but I don't want to go get stuff till the room is ready!

We still haven't picked out a name. A few we like are Gabriel (Gabe), Luke, and Joshua (Josh). Hopefully we have one before he is born! Lol! I was hoping to get one picked out so Mikey could get used to it. He likes to give baby kisses and hugs, it's so cute!

Baby has been giving me some painful jabs in the lower abdomen, more on my left side. Not sure what he is doing, my last doc appt my OB said he was head down so I don't think he is kicking me there...who knows!

 

[Dollybird]

Oh I like all those names Amanda! They are lovely! I'm ok - just uncomfy and impatient. Looking forward to my body feelin somewhat normal again!
Decided to spruce up the old bikini like today (not bothered for months!) with a bit of hair removal cream... What a disaster!! I couldn't really reach or see, and now I just have bald patches interspersed with the odd tuft! Haha. Anyways I also exfoliated and painted my nails so that made me feel a bit better.
Getting loads of period like pains today.. And electric shocks down below. Soooooo uncomfy!! Xxx

 

[MommyNikki]

Lol I love reading everyone's stories. Amanda I would love to nest but mike took all of my stuff upstairs and he needs to bring it back down because if I had to go up and down those stairs I would probably pass out and dolly I know what you mean about shaving...I'm sure it's a hot mess down there because I can't see what I'm doing so I just try to shave blind as best as I can lol.

My pain is getting a little better, not great but better with the chiropractor appts... Had a OB appt and was pissed off again. My due date is 8/3 and they scheduled my c section for 7/31 and I have placenta previa....Uhh hello?! The point of scheduling a c section is to AVOID going into labor...not to mention its a Wednesday so I would get home on the weekend and have no sitter for the kids...at least if I came home during the week I could have day care to ease the burden of having to take care of needy kids right after having major surgery. I asked for earlier and they said they can't schedule the OR on Mondays or Tuesdays and so I asked about the prior Friday and they said they can't schedule a c section before 39 weeks (bullshit) and I would be just 38w5d ...2 days short! I have another appointment in 2 weeks and I'm going to tell them if they cannot make it for Friday then ANY little pain I have, whether its gas or a simple cramp, I will be in the ER and il make sure it's durin the night and weekend so if they are on call they will be coming in. I will make everyone's life Hell lol

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Jenna- Lol! I'm sure I'm a mess down there too! I haven't tried any hair removal cream for years, because last time I used it on my legs I sort of broke out...not fun! I hope your pains are better! I was getting some pretty bad pains this evening, but now I feel better!

Nikki- I thought they scheduled c-sections way earlier than 4 days before your due date, that's crazy!

 

[MommyNikki]

Yea I was scheduled 8 days before my due date with my son and I went into labor the morning of my surgery but I didn't have the placenta problems like this pregnancy

 

[Dollybird]

On nikki that does seen pretty late considering the risk of placenta previa.. If u go ini labour before then u could have a massive bleed!! Glad you not settling with their explanation... Sometimes it's best to be a bit pushy with people cause otherwise nothing gets done! Stick to your guns! And as u say make sure that any twinge get right up there or on the phone! Xxx

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Nikki- Ya, I definitely think they need to schedule you earlier! Was it your OB that scheduled it?

AFM- I have a doc appt this afternoon, I'm going to tell her about the pain I've been having. I think I may be having BH contractions, I don't remember having them with Mikey. Anyways, I can't believe I only have 50 days to go!

 

[MommyNikki]

Yea my ob doctor did...after my miscarriage I had to switch doctors and offices from where I've been since I started even getting periods--because my old office switched to a hospital I don't like and if I wanted my d&c done at the hospital I do like then I would have to switch. I really don't like it very much... The sono tech is really nice and my doctor is nice but I'm seriously questioning whether he's in my best interest or just going they the motions.

Sorry about the bh, I had them a lot with my daughter but I don't remember if I did with my son. None yet with this pregnancy. Hope you feel better

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

That stinks Nikki!

My doc said she thinks the pain is RL pain. I remembered it in a different area last time, but you can get it in different locations from what I understand!

 

[mackjess]

I have pretty much been rolling out of bed, putting on whatever fits and coming to work. Today I am actually wearing a dress so I thought I'd post a bump pick. I only have to come into the office for 6 more days. YAY for working from home!

 

[Dollybird]

Wow amazing bump jess!!! You look brill and I love your dress! Xxx

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Great bump Jess! Love the dress too!

 

[mackjess]

thanks. it's a nursing dress so I'll be living in it this summer!

 

[MommyNikki]

Great pic!

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Where did you get it Jess?

Well ladies I had my appointment with the consultant today and guess who's little monkey has finally turned! I'm so happy it's such a relief. Still measuring pretty big (39weeks) but they not too concerned. My bp was up a bit for me and they concerned about my swelling, but urine dip was ok so no problems there for time being. I'm just so happy he's finally turned. I suspected it but I'd been wrong before so hadnt wanted to get my hopes up.
On another note I lost massive chunk on mucus plug today (tmi I know) and am pretty crampy.. Pelvis feels like its about to snap in two!
Anyways hope everyone else is well!! Xxx

 

[Pray2bBlessed]

Jenna- that's great news! It won't be long now!!

AFM- yesterday I had horrible pains again! I really don't think these were RL pains because they were more centralized and not to the side, but I have been constipated so it could have been because of that!

John had the day off yesterday, so we got a good start on cleaning out the baby room (it was previously our catch all room...lol!), this weekend I want him to paint it so I can start getting it put together!
