January Jellybeans 2013!...

[Nikkilewis14]

Was going to wait until Friday to do my nst because technically I'm suppose to do it on thanksgiving, but I woke up to contractions. And going on 3 hours with them and they're quite painful so I think I'm going to try to find somebody to take dd so I can go in today.

Good idea! Rather be safe than sorry hun.

Good Morning ladies! Jch love that you made a group for us on facebook!!!

Snow - hope those contractions settle down! Let us know how you are.

So excited to see Betheney's pictures!!! What a little cutie!

Will be spending the day cleaning as tomorrow I will have a house full! But sitting here is not getting my work done. hahaha! Last night I had such crap sleep I honestly don't even know how I rolled out of bed this morning. I would sleep for a little bit and wake right back up. UGH! Hopefully I can sleep better tonight. Especially since DH is off until Monday night!!!!

Are any of you US ladies going shopping on Friday?

BabysRUs is offering all Tommy Tippee products Buy One Get One Free. They have lots of other deals as well! I think I am going to go and get a few things and see what else is on sale.

Love the fb group!! I will be out shopping on Friday but nothing crazy like Walmart at 3am. We usually go out with my dh's family and just enjoy the season and get some Xmas shopping done.

Besides, i don't want to do too much shopping since we has our shower in Sunday!! I can't wait!!

Hi Ladies

Thanks for the facebook group JCH, brilliant idea!

I had two appointments today, the first with the dietician for a weight / food check up and pleased to say I seem to be losing weight, am 4lg lighter than when I conceived, which is about 9lb. They seemed ok with it.

Then has anesthetist appointment where he explained all of the different options i.e. epidural and spinal etc plus if need to have a general. He said my notes said possible c section based on babies estimated weight which he thought we would talk about at my 36 week appointment with the consultant.

I still know i'm 33 weeks today, and only 7 to go!!!! Haha.


Ok, signature problem solved

I can't believe I missed the first baby birth of our group! Congratulations Betheney! I popped over to your journal and he is beautiful! I hope all is well. According to my pregnancy books, as far along as you were, chances are he will be a totally normal baby without any type of delays or anything, so even though he doesn't weigh a lot, his brain is well prepared.

I had a midwife appointment yesterday, and it was pretty nerve racking. I've decided to not let my epilepsy get in the way of me having the birth I want, so I simply omitted it from my application and prenatal care files for the midwives. For those of you I haven't told, I have absentee seizures, which means I simply blank out for short periods of time. They aren't violent, they rarely happen, I don't stop breathing, and they pose no risk to me or my child. But they still qualify as epilepsy which disqualifies me from giving birth outside of the hospital. So anyway, I thought I had gotten rid of any trace of epilepsy in my records, and apparently, I missed a page. They asked me about it and me and my husband were so caught off balance. I hate lying, but I admit, I did. And now I feel awful about it even though I still think its for the best...

Is anyone struggling with work? I am finding it very hard at the moment cause I am so tired and so big. I don't have a particularly physical job (well there is a bit or running about sometimes), but I am not sure how I will make another month. Think me and DH are going to sit down and do some finances to see if I can finish a bit earlier, that is if work will let me, but I feel terrible about not saving that time to spend with the baby instead.

I'm not working at the moment, but if I were I would def have issues already. Doing house work is hard as is with my humongous tummy. LOL

I feel the same.... we are SUPER busy at work and it stresses me out and i feel like i cant keep up like i usually could because im so big, uncomfortable.. need to take more breaks than normal bc my feet hurt etc.

I want to be able to use ALL of my maternity leave with the baby, but i feel like im going to want to leave a week before my due date because if im having fatiuge already, i dunno how ill make it 9 more weeks!

I don't post much, but I read the thread everyday. I've requested to join the Facebook group, my name is Claire Gibson.

 

[DeedeeBeester]

Sorry if i'm being a pain in the ass with my username, but I don't want it on facebook for many reasons, one of them being my psyco crazy stalkerish "friend".

Some usernames are pretty obvious anyway Deedee, like mine. For me yours is obvious too, i knew immediately it was you. I think the group should be secret tho so other ppl can't find it, see who's in it or any of the posts.
