Is anyone else experiencing like a burning sensation in their tummy's? If had it for the last two nights, it's not gastric related like heart burn / indigestion is more muscle burn. I wondered if it was BH starting but have nothing to compare it to. It's my upper tummy, just under my boobs ish

can i be totally inappropriate????

I was imagining giving birth and dialating 10 cm... and then I suddenly started comparing 10 cm to the width of my husbands...... well... OMG. I am so bad! hahahahahahaa

Hubby found me a half a bottle of tums to tide me over till we get into town. Thank god, I feel so much better already.

Jaime, I know what you mean about baby being all up in your ribs. I am only 5'0" and have a very short torso, so it gets pretty bad. It was the same way with my daughter.. I even told my hubby that I was sure that I had internal brusing!

 

[La Mere]

Sonia, I get that.. For me it is baby being all up in my ribs and the muscules being extremely sore and stretched. But other than that, I am not sure what it could be.

Jaime, omg! You sound kinda like me. your post made me laugh so hard I almost peed my pants!

Are any of you having a lot of contractions? I feel like I'm having them around the clock. They aren't painful, so I assume they are braxton hicks...

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Would it be wrong if I measure him to compare?!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Thanks la mere. It could be that as I think he is still breech so would explain it a bit I guess. It's not nice!

Jaime - DH and I were only having this conversation last night, he was a little shocked when I said it and don't think he found it quite as interesting as I did

Aww geez. I've been on pelvic rest since 23 weeks. I want some intimacy, whether it involves measurements or not!!!

Me too! And if dr doesn't give me the go ahead at 37 weeks. I'm gonna go ahead anyways.

Sonia, I am pretty sure my baby has already turned and dropped a bit because it feels like small feet and I find the HB lower down the I was. Hopefully you baby has turned and is lodging his feet somewhere. Either way it is terribly uncomfortable!

Jaime, hahaha! I wouldn't think so.. I would, but I already know with my hubby hahaha! Oh and I mentioned what you said to him and he just grinned and chuckled.

 

[Kaiecee]

Oh I forgot to say baby is in the 78th percentile

DH would get nowhere near me if he was 10cm across! On a related but weird note, I tried some perineal massages and tried stretching my perineum a bit with a balloon I got to about 7cm, before giving it a rest. I think it was Sonia that had posted a link to a balloon thing they use for that purpose but no way I was going to spend $200 for it! The balloon worked pretty well with DH's help.

Oh wow I've never heard of that

 

[darkstar]

Has anyone else been told to use their birthing balls? At my last appointment my midwife discussed with me the fact I've dropped and baby's head is well down in the pelvis and she told me to use my swiss ball. I don't quite understand why if his head is already down and he's in a good position. I wish I'd asked her.

 

[La Mere]

Yes, it was Sonia, AJ. The epi-no, and I actually own one. Got it from my midwife when I was pregnant with my daughter. Might not work for everyone, but I swear by it and perineal massage.

Well, so much for relaxing! Hubby and I went to his dentist, then ate at olive garden, went to babies r us to get the boppy pillow. Tomorrow he has a drs apt in the morning and I have ob after noon!

DH and I have set 37 weeks as the "go" date! Hope I feel like it by then.

Thanks for the confirmation La Mere, I don't feel so crazy now
