Cycle 1 day 1. Who's with me? *update* It's a girl! Congrats baby_bray!!!

The earliest I could get an appointment for was two weeks from now. I'm seeing a new doctor too, not too happy about that. And I'll have to get a referral to see ANOTHER doctor because I will be temporarily in another city for 7 weeks. ARG. They don't test for GD until 30 weeks here. I need them to check my TSH I think my thyroid might be off again. Of course I run out of meds tomorrow and couldn't get my script refilled because I can't see my doctor for two weeks. UGH. This is NOT fun. Oh well.

I did get to go swimming tonight and it was WONDERFUL. Except DD thought she would run to the other side of the pool and jump in so I had to dash over there to get her. A bit of overextension of my abs. But otherwise it did feel very good to be so weightless for a while.

 

[moter98]

can you try calling your new dr's nurse and explaining the situation? maybe the dr can send out a script for you till you can see him.

 

[BERDC99]

Colta......test already!

 

[mailcmm]

I am so ready for colta to test!! Almost as ready as I am to evict Finn. Lol

Mighty I would call doc for extra script

hey i know how your feeling ive been uncomfortable struggling to breath struggling to walk lots of pain in my hips and pelvis.Got to make physio appointment in next 2weeks for back so hopefully might get some exercises that might help with that.

 

[moter98]

hey all! today actually went pretty well. not too many bh and i made it through without feeling like passing out. i'm hoping it was just a bad week and maybe baby was just laying at an odd angle. i swear he moved position last thursday night as i felt a sharp pain and flutters like he was turning in there. i feel like i can make it through again today. one weird thing that happened was i pulled something in my back this morning just putting a sock on. hmmmm, how odd is that. but the kink seems to have worked itself out since.

colta, have you tested yet?

 

[mailcmm]

I think colta was gonna wait till Christmas Day to test.


Moter.... I hope that it was just a bad week. May none of you ever feel like I do. Spirits were up today but didn't feel up to walking. Had a lot of downstairs pressure today. Hoping that's a good thing. I have a lot of hope for next week. Fxd anyway. Was extremely tired today. I took 3 naps which is probably the most sleep I have had in months. When is your next us? Do you get another?

 

[moter98]

You are getting closer everyday mail. Come in Finn. Show yourself! We all want to see you

 

[mailcmm]

I know but 18 days seems like eons. Lol

How are you feeling today? It's gonna rain here for the next 2 days. Also want my kids home. I hate even holidays.

 

[colta]

Hey all, just a quick pop in before I get back to getting ready for xmas eve festivities... but test today was a bfn.
So, it's not looking awesome for an xmas miracle for me and Dh this year, but what can ya do?

I'm holding out a little hope, AF is due tomorrow and I haven't had any cramping or anything... plus, usually when af is due, my left breast hurts and my right doesn't (weird??) but this time both are pretty much on fire and killing me, so who knows?

But yeah, I'll let ya'll know if things change, but as of right now, I'd say I'm out...

But a Merry Christmas to ya'll!

 

[mailcmm]

Merry Christmas colta. I was really hoping we would both have a fabulous Christmas but looks like Finn is gonna cheat me out of a gift this year! Lol well it's not over til the witch rides so maybe tomorrow will be luckier.

 

[moter98]

I know but 18 days seems like eons. Lol

How are you feeling today? It's gonna rain here for the next 2 days. Also want my kids home. I hate even holidays.

Yeah it does. I bet it won't be that long though. Any day now!
I'm ok today, this darn back pain is back but at least there isn't a body part shoved up under my right rib like it was all last night. I have never experienced that before. Can't believe how painful it is! And it even felt sore.
Hope you get through the holidays without the kids, must be really hard not to have them with you
Weather is stable here, just really really cold

 

[moter98]

Still holding out hope for you colta! No AF is always a good sign

 

[mailcmm]

Oh Moter I feel for you. Since Finn turned there is always a body part under a rib. It's horrible. That and my back are my biggest complaints because they are constant. The contractions at least come and go. It's pouring here. Supposed to be really bad tomorrow. Still with the pressure on my pelvic floor and very crampy today which is new. Feels like a bad period. Hope that means something. Lol

 

[moter98]

ugh, not liking it at all, lol. never had that with #1. not sure if it was due to the clubfoot or what.
the cramps sound like a good sign. that's what i had the day before i had aden! constant period like cramps, then the next morning i woke up with the same cramps along with contractions.

 

[MightyMom]

Ooh! Maybe my prediction was right! I'm still crossing my fingers for tomorrow.

 

[mailcmm]

So far nothing but its still early. Lol I may be paranoid but I think he dropped. I don't feel a limb in the ribs. Have a dr apt today. Have to call to get a time. Going to ask them to check me so we know if there have been any changes. Dh does not want Finn born today. His family gave him a guilt trip about not wanting to have to come over on Christmas. I kinda feel like well if he comes he comes and it's not like this is a surprise. Also we had invited them all here. His sister even wanted me to promise to not go into labor until she returns from vacation cause she has to be atbthe birth of her nephew so he needs to wait for her. Lmao I just said no promises but wanted to say then you shouldn't have planned a trip during my last 2 weeks of pregnancy. my bro and wife are out of town too. But call daily and could care less. Maybe because they know I don't let anyone in the room. His mom and sister are in for a shock. They won't be present in the sense that think they will be. Everyone goes to the waiting room. Even my mom isn't allowed in. Haven't decided about my kids yet. I may let them choose but they will have to keep their heads north of the sheet. Lol

As for the rest of y'all.... Have a merry Christmas. This is the second one we have all been a part of. It's the second one ice been pregnant thru.

 

[moter98]

oh wow mail! sounds like the fam can be a bit overbearing. if my MIL and SIL thought they were gonna be at the birth I would be laughing, thinking they were joking. it is just not done around here. only those that you ask to be there are there, and in most cases its just one person like your partner, your mom, or a really close friend. also, the nursing staff is wonderful. if there were certain people you didn't want allowed in, they make sure no one is getting through that door.
baby dropping would be a good sign. i read that oftentimes after your first pregnancy, baby will drop just before labor. i don't think you are gonna have to wait 17 more days!

 

[moter98]

Merry Christmas to everyone! We are on our, well my, last family Xmas outing today. We had 3 days in a row of them and one last week. Then two more yet, but I won't be going because one is too far away and the other isn't until next month and I highly doubt I'm gonna want to be traveling over an hour away to sit on hard chairs out in a cold garage all day at over 8 months pregnant lol

 

[baby_bray]

Merry Christmas everyone! DH and I made it up to Maine safely and we're enjoying the dusting of snow we got right after opening presents! Perfect timing!
