Melann that's so cute we're doing jungle monkey theme I know I could paint as my bosses own the place and we are allowed to change things if we wanted to but it's to so much but he'll have his own side of the room

Lucy maybe you could find a good book to keep you busy?

 

[melann13]

I am reading a book called "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child." It was recommended to me by a friend after I was at her house and was super impressed at her baby's temperament and sleeping through the night. I have it on my Kindle. Just in case it sounds like something you might like Lucy.

I also recommend Tina Fey's book for light reading.

Here's a better picture of the tree. We have another big branch to go across the wall above the crib with her name hanging from it and little wooden cutouts of birds and trees etc that I painted to match the fabric, but we can't put that up for awhile since her name (Felicity) is a secret, except from you ladies

Melann I love it super cute

melann- I love it, very cute! The little animals are adorable. We did everything but the decal with my daughter as well until right before since we were keeping it a secret. I will probably do the same again. We aren't 100% on a name, but I think the hubby is warming up to Blake!

I have my 28 week appointment today. They are doing an ultrasound they want to measure the baby again because she was measuring small at 20 weeks but right on target at 12 weeks. Hopefully that goes well. I'm excited to see the baby again the ultrasounds are fun (except for the whole full bladder part ha ha). I'm a little worried because sunday night at like 3 am I went to the bathroom and there was a little blood. I contemplated going to the hospital at 3 am but the baby was moving fine and I didn't feel any pain so I waited until I was getting up for work to see if there was blood again, and there wasn't. There hasn't been any since then. I don't know if I still should have gone still worrying about that. Then monday morning I was nauseous had to force myself to eat breakfast. I ate lunch and threw it all up, I haven't thrown up since the first tri and even then it wasn't often. I hope this isn't the start of third tri morning sickness I've heard that can happen (it was never really morning sickness though I just had all day nausea). Though I don't feel particularly nauseous this morning. Sorry just complaining, better go get ready for my appointment now.

 

[Lucy529]

Good luck Wolf hope lo is growing well def mention the blood tho just to be safe

 

[wrightywales]

Hope your appointments go will Lucy and wolfQ x

 

[Lucy529]

So he is doing good growing and there was improvement to his cord so me doing nothing is helping he was wiggling and kicking and practicing his breathing and swallowing

She did tell me that I should take my packed bag and if he sent me home on just bed rest I was lucky? So now I'm thinking the specialist might put in th hospital to monitor him. She said I'm hitting the 30 week milestone and from 32-34 weeks he would be fine but ideally it would be great to keep him in until 35-36 weeks.

 

[xxemmyxx]

Glad he is doing well Lucy

 

[melann13]

Great news Lucy! Even though there's still some unknowns, try to take at least one sigh of relief. Ivan is doing great!

 

[wolfQ]

My appointment went well. She's done some growing and now is only measuring 4 days behind so the dr. didn't change the due date. Dr. wasn't worried about the blood since it was just a little bit and only once with no other symptoms. I told her about how my heart keeps going nuts...it's done this the whole pregnancy and everything I read said it was normal, but it's worse now. For no reason my heart will just start beating like crazy I can put my hand up to my chest and feel it going nuts, usually it lasts 15 min or more too. Sometimes it makes me feel dizzy as well. She seemed a bit concerned so now I have to do some 24 hr heart monitor, hmm.

 

[melann13]

@wolf,
I have definitely had the pounding heart on and off since the beginning. The rate isn't usually very high, I just beats so hard that I can feel it. I mentioned it to my doc and he wasn't worried. (Mostly because the rate isn't high- I used my Doppler to check . Usually drinking a big glass of extra water and laying on my left side helps. Good luck!
