January Jellybeans 2013!...

Hey girls. I live a few miles from the shore and we got demolished. Pretty devastating. My house is still standing so I suppose I should be grateful for that and our safety. Will be without power for the next week possibly. Can only charge my phone in the car so will be updating less frequently
 
Yeah, 30 weeks!!
Here's my happy dance LOL

Jaime- lots of prayers your way. We were fortunate in central nj, just a loss of power, but am so sad for everyone in the beach communities. I also have friends in NYC and they're practically under house arrest. They have no power to get up and down their high rises and can't get anywhere in the city due to transit. I hope you're well and sending happy thoughts your way.
 
I'm soooo PISSED!!!!
I go to my drs. And they say I have gd !!!!
Are u kidding me so the nurse that called me yesterday were WRONG!

Also ill be getting another u/s to make sure baby is not getting too big and I've already got my machine to test my blood I'm a little disappointed!!! :(
 
Betheney soooo glad to hear the good news!!! :happydance:

Snow try and take it easy. No Halloween babies needed!

Jrowen - thinking about you and glad you are safe! I hope you get power back quickly. Stay safe!

Kaiecee so sorry they seemed to screw up your test. I would call and double check again. Tell them that they called and said no and then said yes.

Deedee - :haha::haha: love your happy dance!

Melly what a sweet picture. I can see the little face!! :D Precious!

Jch glad to hear everything is ok!

I saw pics on the news. Glad your house survived and will be thinking of you. :(

My BIL lives in Manhattan and paid $25 for a case of water yesterday!
 
It's fruit day AND I changed to a squash finally!!!

I had my 29 week appointment today. I passed by GTT with a BG of 107. My Hemoglobin was a little low (normal is 11 and I was 10.6) and the doctor said I could take an iron supplement with a stool softener. I am not going to take it because of the constipation issues. My urine and my blood pressure were also normal.

I have gained 19lbs and am only supposed to gain 6lbs more in the next 11 weeks. Ugh. That's a very tall order. I told the OB I'm eating fairly well and I am still active. I am not overeating and actually only eating when I'm hungry.

I also reiterated my concerns about fetal movement. My OB noted that I should be feeling 10 movements in any 2 hr period, not just when baby is most active. I told him baby is quieter during day (even when I am home and sitting so I could feel them). He was not concerned at this point but I was encouraged to call anytime I had questions.
 
Glad to see everyone is ok! Hopefully that power comes on soiner!


Ditty your weight gain is totally normal.. Id be happy with 19. 25 lbs isnt what everyone is supposed to gain...its really between 25-35 lbs for a healthy pregnancy... And my doctor said hed be fine with me even gaining 40 ehich is why he is not concerned with my 27 lbs lol
 
Whoa, it seems like as soon as we hit 30 weeks lots of craziness started happening in this thread. I hope all these babies continue to bake a few weeks longer, I'd hate for any of them to come now and have to spend time in the nicu or something.

Glad our east coast ladies are safe, sorry its so hard on u jrowe, I hope you can get things sorted in short order.

Sorry some of u failed your tests, but we have some really knowledgeable and helpful mamas in here so don't worry too much about it.

Afm, I'm getting a bit impatient as we've been out of our home since Monday and they still haven't started working on it yet :dohh: work SHOULD start tomorrow but I'm so worried it won't all get done in time for baby.
 
They must work out the Gtt results differently, I got my results today, it was 4.1 before the sugar and 6.5 after
 
I can feel Matthew on the left side of my tummy. I started rubbing my hand softly and felt him move to the middle haha. Such a picky baby!
 
Hey ladies! Turns out I have pretty good internet in the hotel. The move yesterday went very well. I wasn't particularly helpful with the cleaning that followed, but I did what I could.

Lately, I can't sleep lying down. I have to be propped up almost all the way into a sitting position in order to not have a lot of pain in my ribs. They feel like they are separating or shoving together, I can't tell which, but it really hurts. Have any of you had this problem?
 
I'm soooo PISSED!!!!
I go to my drs. And they say I have gd !!!!

Well, that's messed up of the nurse! I hope they ask her to be more careful when giving out results! Jeez, I hope she didn't tell somebody that didn't have GD that they did!

So sorry sweetie! :hugs:
 
The one highlight of my hospital stay was that I forgot my uni had a campus near the hospital so I could log into the uni WiFi for free as im a student with them and had complete fast internet for my whole stay.
 
Betheney - Glad everything is looking better & you got to go home. Tell that baby to stop scaring us! :)

Little J - Hehe! I'm the other way around - keep forgetting I'm this far on & I only really feel about 23 weeks based on my last pregnancy. I wonder which of us will give birth first? :)
 
Jrow - Sorry you were hit so bad, I'm just glad you're ok :) Hope the clean up goes well & the place starts to resemble it's former self again. Understand it must be devastating :hugs:

Kaiecee - What total idiots!!! :hugs:
 
Dh really annoys me. Like seriously he calls me to run errands. :dohh: he's very OCD and likes to get things crossed of his to do list. I understand that, but half the crap he wants me to do isn't worth risking continued contractions and potentially labor. :dohh: wish I had a shock collar for him so everytime I felt a pain I could give him a little bit of it. :rofl:

Anyways. Men are stupid. Rant over. :rofl:
