January Jellybeans 2013!...

[sassy_mom]

I am so tired. I got out of bed at 9am, took a nap from 11:30-2pm. I asked DH what's wrong with me? He says "You're prego!" Hate feeling so tired and incapacitated.

Some days are like that! Rest while you can though. Your body needs it. I know what you mean about feeling like that though. It makes the day seem rough when all you can think and do is sleep.

So got a call back and my 2nd glucose came back NORMAL! I'm so happy

Well today was a little eventful. Went to the hospital for a non stress test. Was hooked up to the monitor for about a half hour and then they sent me to ultrasound. Baby looked fine and did all she was suppose to do so they sent me back to the nurse to wait for my dr to discharge me. Well apparently I had 4 contractions in that small amount of monitoring so he wanted me to stay til they stopped. So I drank some water and they hooked me back up. I made it almost a full half hour with nothing and then I had three in a row. they hooked up an IV and started talking about a holiday baby. I til the nurse I was expecting a holiday baby, but not a Halloween baby. They slowed enough that they let me go home, but I'm more convinced now baby will be early and I'm pretty sure dr will want me to start non stress testing twice a week.

Did you feel yourself contracting? So sorry you and Betheney are going through these stresses.

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Oh boy hunnie! Hope the contractios stop!. Try to relax with ur feet up if at all possible!

 

[La Mere]

I'm sorry your going through these stressful things, Snow.

 

[DeedeeBeester]

Contractions certainly made it an eventful day!

Hope both of you girls manage to keep buns in the oven for a little longer!

 

[Betheney]

It's 6am and I've had tightening/Braxton hicks every 4-10minutes since 1am. No one seems to give a shit. But I have my morning monitoring in a few hours I guess so we'll deal with it then.

Had zero zero zero sleep and am so sick of crying babies and noisy staff.

Hubby gave me some get well soon Krispy Kremes. So despite being a terrible idea at 6am I just shoved one done my throat.

- edit -

5 seconds after I posted they carted in a CTG machine and hooked me up. Showing the tightening clearly and babies heart rate rises with them and not drops or stays level. I wonder what that means. Lol

 

[sassy_mom]

Lots of going out to Snow and Betheney!!! Hope you guys both get some good news and can go home and cook those babies a little longer!

 

[duckytwins]

Oh no, girls! Keep those babies in! Thinking about you!

Oh, honey.. I am so sorry that they are ignoring you and what's going on with you and baby. I hope everything will be okay. keep us update when you can! On a side note, krispy kreme sounds kinda good atm. Sending lots of positive thoughts and prayers your way!

 

[els1022]

Betheney, it is good that baby's HR rises with the contractions! We see that as a sign of fetal well being. Sorry you didn't sleep well. And yes, I see moms all the time who get the steroids and then end up going home. You're in my prayers!

 

[Betheney]

- yep -

5 contractions in 25mins. Far right needle.

Doctors just came around said baby looks fantastic. Nothing like yesterday but they'll want to know if the tightenings are just Braxton hicks or if they're labour contractions. But I'm certain they're Braxton hicks myself.

She said the day doctors will probably do a speculum examination to check. Gross!

I can feel these!!!!!!

I only felt a couple of them. I wa surprised I was contracting so much I wonder what it'd look like when I'm really in pain.

What are up with these babies? That's pretty much what mine looked like. tho They were able to slow mine down enough to let me leave, but I'm wondering what my dr will do. gues I better stop cheating bedrest.


I told dh that now along with no bd'ing they've added no nipple stimulation to my orders.

 

[Nikkilewis14]

Oh no beth...any update?M

 

[mellywelly]

I've just realised, I'm into single figure weeks countdown!! Only 9 weeks left!!

 

[La Mere]

Oh wow, Betheney! Definitely keep us updated when possible! I hope they are just BH! Thinkingvof you and baby.

 

[Betheney]

Doctor just came and saw me I wrote above.

As long as the tightening look like they're having zero effect on the cervix that won't be too concerned. So the day staff will prob check my cervix

I'll let you girls know what the effect on my cervix is/was as soon as I know.

But I'm weirdly unconcerned
