Happy new year y'all!!
So thankful for most of us making it this far!!
Excited to write out my birth plan in the morning with my cousin. She's an L&D nurse so she'll know the ins and outs of what to put on there :thumbup:
 
Happy New Years ladies!

Unfortunately my son and I get to bring it in with colds >.< So will be asleep as midnight arrives...not like I could make it that far anyways. Yes! Next month we have our babies :) :happydance: Countdown for is about 5-6 weeks!
 
Yes, I'm excited to say, "next month!" Since according to strangers I've looked ready to pop since the beginning of November. :roll:
 
Happy New year!! I can't believe we can all say we are having a baby next month! Feels exciting, scary, just amazing!

We didn't stay up till midnight either. Don't see the point. Not like we would have partied hard downing champagne :haha: Saw all the amazing fireworks from around the world on TV this morning.
 
Some of us may even have our babies this month!!

Crazy how fast it has gone.
 
I'm crossing my fingers for a January baby! This pregnancy has been a struggle from start to finish so if it was to end a couple of weeks earlier it'd be no skin off my nose :haha: As long as he's fully cooked and healthy of course! I was actually a little worried last night that something may be starting... the pressure in my bum and 'down there' was immense, kept having BH's and (TMI) there was some clearing out :blush: Turns out I just have a virus though, everything but the vomiting stopped fairly quickly and I've been feeling rough all day :dohh:

I was the same with the tmi a couple days a go themn last nyt he was so active and kept getting real strong bh but thankfully they stopped.
Im still thinking my original due date of the 3rd of feb is more accurate as ive always been measureing atleast a week ahead and at my 20 week scan the average size was 20w5days so that wud make me due 5th of feb. and imm sooooooo hopeing i deliver early, really over this pregnancy.
Anyone in previous pregnancys had success with accupanture or reflexology to bring labour on? Have a frind who does reflex and he said hel give it a good push for me when im close to my date so hoping it works
 
Clearing out here, too. Ugh. I googled and I guess it's really common and doesn't necessarily mean anything, though it CAN? Thanks, Internet, for clearing that up for me. :roll:
Anyway, I've felt pretty rough today but somehow also felt compelled to clean the boys' room.
Now my back hurts and I want to sleep. :sleep:
 
My friend just had her baby in December. She was "clearing out" for weeks, so for her it didn't mean much!

My cousin said it's a smart idea to do an enema in early early labor though!

What does clearing out mean?
 
Like she was having diarrhea on and off for weeks
 
Happy new year girls! It's so crazy to say that I'm due next month! Can't wait until feb!!!!
 
Happy New Year everyone!!!

We had some nice quality family time and now back to routine.... Although we had an unpleasant surprise... Doctor told us I have to go on anticoagulation shots, which I had somehow mistakenly thought I wouldn't need. First shot is tonight, eeek! And we have an OB appointment next week to see what we're going to do, as I can't have an epidural for 24 hours after each shot, or go into EMCS in case I wanted to give natural labor a shot... :nope:

On another note, anyone else not having any Braxton-Hicks or anything? Other than me getting huge, I really don't feel like anything is happening, hehe. And it's only a month and change left!
 
Quantea- that sounds stressful! I hope everything works out well for you!

I just had my 33 week appt and baby is now head down! I'm so glad, I did some spinning babies exercises and I'm pretty sure he flipped over the weekend. I think he is pretty much lodged in there now because im having a lot of pain in my pelvis. Even sitting on the birthing ball hurts.

Another exciting thing I learned the other day is that the hospital I am delivering at just started using gas & air!! So I will get to try that out with this labor! There's only one other birthing center in the state that has started using it here.
 
Jaxvipe, could you recommend some things on the Spinning Babies that worked for you? Baby will go head down but they like to flip transverse in the middle of the day usually.... I've tried the ice pack/hot pack method and bouncing on a ball so far. I go to the website frequently but baby keeps on flipping around in there!
 
I was told our baby was head down at our last appt and I THINK he has stayed there for the most part given that most of my kicks are felt up towards my stomach/ribs. Im also not sure about feeling braxton hicks but there are times my tummy gets super hard and it feels like there is a lot of overall pressure. It only happens everyone once in a while or if I walk for a while.
 
Same here mommylov, there are occasions when my bump feels super tight and hard to touch for a few seconds, but is painless. I'm usually upright at the time, unless they're just more noticeable then compared to when I'm sitting down. I'm guessing they're BHs because I never had them with my daughter :shrug:
 
Daisy- I did the forward leaning inversion a couple of days in a row. I also did the one where you laying on the floor with your knees bent and a couple pillows under your butt and put an ice pack on the top of my belly, leaning on my birthing ball with my knees of the floor and letting my belly hang down.
