Due In May :)

[MissMummyMoo]

Yay for babys cotbed Jary! It won't be long before they'll be here!! X

 

[Jary]

I know it's so scary that in just over 10 weeks we'll be putting our little one in there. Will build it up when I'm about 35 weeks or so. Don't want to put it up too soon.

Lunch was a little more difficult since we went out. I ended up having to eat some bread and drink milk when we got home to make up for what I didn't get at the restaurant lol dinner was pretty easy tho, I just made exactly what's on the list - boiled egg, 1 serving raw veggies w/ ranch, 2 slices of toast with butter, 1 cup of milk, whole wheat pasta w/ little bit of butter && few cookies for dessert

 

[Hann12]

Not long to go now Powell and hopefully you won't have it anyway!

 

[pinktiara]

ugh my acid reflux has been rediculous what do you ladies take? I see my specialist tomorrow at 10am I will let ya know how it goes. 9 more weeks for me till my c section which I still have no exact date for only driving me a little bit crazy haha.

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Sorry your suffering with reflux pink I haven't suffered with it at all this pregnancy, however hubby has he's using gaviscon and milk to try and help his.

How come your having a C Section early if you don't mind me asking?

I know my little man will be here in no more than 7 weeks! They are inducing me around 37 weeks because of the obstetric cholestasis. So I won't be pregnant any longer than 38 weeks meaning I will have my little man by no later than 22nd April!! Eeekkk! X

 

[Powell130]

I've heard a spoonful of mustard will do the trick for heartburn! I don't have it so I can't personally say tho lol

Last day of the stupid diet, no food after 10PM tonight and appointment at 8AM! ugh lol

We won the free ultrasound session!!! I think I'm gonna schedule it for the 23rd of this month I can't wait to see our little man again

 

[Jary]

Good luck Powell! And can you believe we will be 30 weeks tomorrow?? 30! 3/4 of the way through and only 10 weeks to go....or less if our little ones decide to appear early! Eep!

Here's to growing bumps and babies!

 

[Powell130]

I know!! I can't believe it!! Time has FLOWN by!!! It's so hard to believe in just a few short weeks, our bundles of joy will be in our arms rather than our bellies

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Hope the test goes ok tomorrow Powell!

for the scan, well done I bet you can't wait!! I can't wait to see the pics again x

 

[Powell130]

I scheduled the US for 9:15AM on March 23rd so excited!!

 

[Hann12]

Jary - or more if they come late lol!!

Powell - great about the win! Hope the test goes okay tomorrow - when will you get the results?

I'm not having indigestion but I do get a bit of reflux if I lie down too soon after dinner. Only in the past few days. Think I might need to eat less at dinner times.

Starting to feel big now - most noticeable when I sit on the floor with DD and have to get up fast (when we are at one if her classes for example). Will just have to manage for another 9 weeks though!! Got my parents and inlaws helping a fair bit over the next few weeks but then no help from 6th April until 9th may - tricky!

 

[Powell130]

My office only calls if there's a problem with your results - last time I took it on a Tuesday and they called me on Thursday. So if I don't hear anything by Friday - I passed. I'm hoping not to hear from them!! lol

 

[Jary]

Hann I'm trying not to think about he or she coming late!

 

[Hann12]

Honestly it's better to just think it will be late - 80% of first timers are overdue. If you think it will be early or on time you will be really annoyed and impatient (I was like you first time!). This time I'm expecting the baby a week late, if it comes before then fine but if not then I'll be prepared. Sounds silly but towards the end it can be a mental and physical torture waiting and not knowing when it's going to happen so its just better to be prepared that it will be late - as it probably will be!!

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Totally agree with Han! My first was born at 39+3 so I expected my second to be born early too, he came 3 days late and I drove myself mad, as did the MWs as they kept saying he was going to be early! X

 

[Sass827]

GL tomorrow and congrats on the win Powell!
It's tough not to know when the babies will come. Expecting the worst is usually a safe way I go, I just don't know if I can swing it. I was reading that some birthing classes say its ok to start natural induction tactics at 37 weeks (ie- massage, acupuncture, raspberry leaf tea, sex, walking, etc). At the end of the day, the baby will still come when it's ready, but I think I'll be doing all I can to help her along.

 

[Jary]

I suppose that's one way of looking at it. I just dread the thought of being over...couple of days over is fine but longer I'd start worrying. Maybe this baby will take after me and come a little early lol. Wishful thinking but I know baby will come when he or she is ready.

Right now all I wish is that baby would stop doing whatever they are doing to my bladder! It's weird and uncomfortable lol

 

[Sass827]

I'm with you Jary. Some of these recent feelings have been so odd and hard to pinpoint. I'm used to tosses and tours and kick -punch combos, but she's doing other stuff now. Last night I had a strip of pressure that was about 4 inches across down near my pelvic bone. Ooooh did it hurt!

 

[Jary]

I am feeling pressure more than kicks now. Usually when I'm eating I feel pushing on my ribs....not the best feeling when having a meal lol. Still getting busy little hands when I lie on side and down near my pelvis. And I can feel limbs brushing past when I have my hand round my belly.

It's actually felt like baby did a flop earlier on followed by a foot or a fist making a little hill on my belly. Hehe. Cute.
