[babydreams85]

Sorry ladies, have not been able to update! Thankfully when I went back in yesterday morning I was dilated to 4cm and was admitted to the hospital.

Weston Nickolas was born at 5:15pm on Valentine's Day, Feb 14th! 7 lbs, 14 oz!!!!!!!!

Will write a birth story soon and post a picture when we get out of the hospital. We are so in love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is absolutely perfect!

Congratulations....more babieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!!!

This time next week I will probably be being induced, scary but exciting thought

 

[smileyfaces]

Babydreams! Congrtulations!!

Ive been on the monitor at hosp and baby is just fine! I am contracting regularly as well but not dilated at all

 

[Wiggler]

Glad baby is fine hun, little pickle making you worry

I hope the contractions mean it won't be too long!

Congrats baby dreams!

My cramps are back! Hope these are actually doing something and not just making me be in pain.

Arrg I was having some nice contraction 20 mins apart but still and now they are gone

Wishful thinking lol

So I know when I conceived +-a few days but guessed on my lmp. The lmp edd is the 28th but the conceived date is the 21. My ultrasounds have guess me for a edd for the 24th.

What date for edd would you guys think would be more accurate?

The scan is usually the one they go off!

I had the sweep, she couldn't find my cervix at all to begin with, she expected it to be right at the back, but it was right at the front which is a good sign she said, I am also 1cm dilated, very soft and "ready to go"

hope this does the trick!

woke up just before 1 am to pee and couldn't sleep. so I ate some dates because i was hungry and they're easy to just pop in my mouth and have food in the belly (i don't do breads etc). Within the hour I knew i was in trouble I spent 4 hours with a constant faucet of poo and violent vomiting (sorry tmi). Either my body is rejecting these now (after 10 weeks) or they're contaminted in the processing because I went through the same thing last friday and again this past wednesday not knowing the cause...the only thing those three sessions had in common was eating those damn dates I just bought about an hour before getting sick
So I can't get ahold of OB to move my appt and I have to show up weak and dehydrated. She does a check, baby is still posterior and super high up (compared to last week's low appt) and there is absolutely no change in my cervix except now it is super high up like baby. Injust keep envisioning my labor with ds where he wouldn't descend. With her so high up and badly positioned my risk of being induced AGAIN skyrockets I'm so tired and so disgusted, guess I best plan on spending my whole day on my knees trying to turn this LO. Wish I knew why she turned out of her perfect position to start with

turn, baby, turn!!

ovulation/conception is more accurate; accuracy of the u/s would depend on which week they were taken

congrats babydreams woo-hoo!!

So, i asked my m/w to fit me in for an extra non-stress test today since the OB's full biophysical won't be until early next week and i'm further along now (based on ovulation) than i got last time. Baby is doing fantastic, and he's now OA slightly right of center - she said they often rotate to almost full-on OA just before labor, so that's one more small piece of encouraging news - i'll take what i can get! i opted to not go for a 4th sweep - since the 3rd sweep didn't work for me at 4cm this past Monday, i didn't see the point. So, just continuing an herbal regimen today and going for spicy Indian buffet for lunch! Let's get moving, baby!!

Im so glad Im not going mad and that these pains are showing as regular contractions on the monitor, so miffed Im not dilated though. Hope they pick up soon and start making a change to my cervix!

Wiggler, hope your sweep is effective!

 

[smileyfaces]

Fides, glad everything is okay with baby!! Are you still at a 4 or did they not check today?xx
