Labour itself can make you very nauseous whether you had drugs or not. I vomited during labour when I had no drugs at that point.

Then when I got the pethadine injection they said it can cause nausea would i like a shot of something to counter act and nausea, obviously I said yes

Did you and eat and drink during labor? Apparently midwives recommend you eat and drink during labor, but I don't anyone that has.

I did have a couple crackers after guilt tripping a nurse most hospitals don't allow you to eat once in labor, but I almost immediately regretted it. I didn't vomit, but it made me extremely nauseous and I will not be sneaking snacks this time.

Thanks ladies... I have a weak stomach from way too many years of NSAIDs with my hip problems. The narcotics seem to have a very bad effect on me regardless. When I had my hip replaced they had me on an epidural and twilighted for the surgery. My epidural line fell out shortly after I was moved to a room and so I wasnt receiving any pain meds! I started in Tylenol and only took Percocet once or twice afterwards when the pain was unbearable. I think I'll steer clear and it's reassuring to hear that it seems hospital staffs will honor that.

I've never vomited during labour but never eaten during it either. I will definitely be taking plenty of snacks for OH though or he'll be a pain in my a*ss if he gets hungry lol. He is a big coffee drinker too so I was thinking I had better pack him his favorite coffee (the only one he drinks) and maybe a thermos of hot water. I figure if I make him comfortable he'll be of more use to me as a birth partner.

Is everyone else waddling now? I have a definite preggo waddle going on.

I've had a waddle for quite some time. I'm trying not to waddle. I think the waddling is hurting my back more so I'm double checking my posture and hips as I walk to try and help. So far it seems to be working.

 

[duckytwins]

Yes! I'm waddling... Remember my prediction a while back that by October I wouldn't be able to walk? I woke up this morning, not being able to walk or stand! My back, hips and hooha blush: ) all hurt so badly!

I just ordered a prenatal cradle this morning, I hope it helps lift the weight off all those places.

 

[ARuppe716]

I'm a waddler, too! A couple of weeks ago dh and I were walking into a restaurant and he was a few feet in front of me. When he got to the door he turned to hold it open and wait for me and he bust out laughing. I told him I knew I was waddling and am doing the best I can!!

 

[Lillian33]

Preggo waddling is cute!! Not for me yet - except for when my back was sore - dont think my bump is big enough for me to waddle yet!!

Such beautiful bumps La Mere and Jamie!! Jamie you are growing nicely, all bump La Mere I think your bump is a little bigger than your last pic - I feel like mine shrinks some days too ha ha!

Sassy, I'm sure you'll still have a great time at your shower, will be far better with less people than with a load of inlaws that you dont really want there!

Kaiecee, hope the dog situation works out, it is very selfish of your DH to ever put the dog before his wife and baby!

I've been waddling for a while baby feels like she's low I'm always pulling up on the bottom of my belly to make walking easier.

 

[sassy_mom]

Chloe feels really, really high most of the time. Although I think it is more all my organs she has smashed up! hahaha! After I've been up walking around too long, she drops way down low and I have to do the stomach hold thing.

I had a look on the site and think I know which one you mean, it's super cute and you always look great in your pics so im sure you will make it work. Maybe even brown boots, the scarf and no tights if it's warm enough - I think that would look lovely or a cute cardi and flats even?

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Im so self concious about my legs because i feel like theyre holding so much water! Ill prob ditch the tights.. Its going to be oct 26 th but im sure ill be ok for an hour outside even if it is cold lol...

 

[Lillian33]

I'm sure your legs are totally fine, but dont worry anyway cause everyone will be concentrating on your cute preggers bump!!

We miss you too Sonia!! Hope work quietens down for you soon xxx

 

[BlossomJ]

I'm back too... Except I have no excuse Sonia! We've been staying with family & not had a spare minute, or at least it feels that way. My parents think it's rude to sit at a computer or with a phone, so I've not had that much on a chance to check in & there's no way I'llcatch up!

Hope you're all doing well. I spotted some cute bump pics! & definitely think you're a little bigger LaMere!

I'm going to start packing for the big house move today, though it'll be about a month before we go. The survey & valuation on the house has come back fine, so hopefully it's all going to come together

 

[Snow Owl]

Hey ladies can I get swapped to the 18th please

I'm starting to think my bump is teeny!!!
