January Jellybeans 2013!...

[Soniamillie01]

I'm sick of people telling me how HUGE I am, drives me crazy! Why do people think it is ok to say stuff like that, especially women who seem to be the worse! I'm like hello I am 9 moths pregnant!

I don't know what happened, but I just got a major energy spike. I made crepes for lunch, vacuumed the house, did all the laundry, planned all the meals for this week, made a shopping list, and my husband doesn't know it yet, but now we're going shopping.

I'm getting contractions every 4 mins lasting about 1 min each for the last hour. I'm not in much pain apart from back pain. When would you ring the hospital? It's my second baby so wouldn't want to leave things too late but if they aren't painful enough have I got long time to wait?

 

[brieri1]

Braxton Hicks contractions can be regular. If they aren't increasing in intensity along with getting closer together and longer, than they probably aren't real contractions. But I'm not familiar with your first labor. Were you in a lot of pain with the first one?

 

[Nikkilewis14]

I want to cry and scream and everything!

So we got the first test results and in order to induce today the results had to be over 50. They came back at 44. It doesnt mean she is not mature, it just means the results were inconclusive and they have to do another test on the fluid but it needs to be sent out to a special lab... Well its the holiday so i wint have the results untul my apptmnt wednesday morning, then if its ok we will schedule induction hopefully by thursday or friday. I want her to be healthy, but im so tired from the contractions, they were off the charts all day every 2-3 mins, i just cried. I seriously am just so exhausted and in pain, but there has been no cervix change so its not active labor... Just need to hang in a few more days..

I made crepes yesterday for lunch. They were so yummy I almost made them again.

And yes the amnio was very painful because he had to wait for the baby to move, she got all curious and he ended up sitting with a needke in my stomach fir an extra 30 seconds.. And then took the fluid... I feel like a pincusion, ive had 3 internal exams, 4 nsts, blood drawn, and a rhogam shot in my ass. Im sorry im being a downer, im just so shot.

 

[ARuppe716]

I'm sorry you had a rough day Nikki!! Hopefully you'll get some good news soon! Or she will decide that she is good and ready to meet the world and is also tired of the contractions!

 

[Lilahbear]

Oh Nikki, I'm sorry to hear that. Sounds like you are having a tough time.

 

[Nikkilewis14]

I really am.. I just cried ... I know im hormonal, but not really how i wanted to spend new years... Just trying to stay positive for wednesday... Gunna take a shower and raise my legs because im so swollen today for some reason... And maybe nap.. Thank you all for the support.. I truly appreciate it.

 

[mellywelly]

Oh nikki I can't begin to imagine what you are going through

 

[DeedeeBeester]

So sorry Nikki! Thinking of you, hoping Wednesday gets here soon.

 

[La Mere]

Oh, Nikki! I am so sorry you had such a rough day, hun! Get some well deserved rest and I hope your contractions ease up or start making some changes! you.

Claire- I know the common rule for timing contractions are 5-1-1 or 3-1-1. Not sure what to.do.if.they are not painful.. But as PP said, I don't know about your first labor or how painful your contractions were. Maybe you should call your dr just to check in?

Afm: I am pretty sure I am seeing some of my mucus plug! First saw it last night (tmi alert) and it looked like someone blew their nose in my panties! and just went to the bathroom a few minutes ago, wiped and saw more of the same! maybe I shouldn't get to excited but my cramping and backache are getting more achy and soreness inducing.

Hope all the ladies who are/have been sick are feeling better. I'm doing my best to stave off DD and FaIL's cold...but now I have a cough and the sniffles. Gonna do some more cleaning and try to take it easy as possible. Much much love to all you ladies!

 

[Soniamillie01]

Ah Nikki hun, I am thinking of you and sending lots of

 

[DeedeeBeester]

Ok, so if anybody is interested: I just bought 5 Dinkledooz one-size cloth diapers for less than $40.00 with free shipping at gogonatural.com So I payed $8.00 for each. The year2012 code will give you 50% off. The original price before the code must be higher than $75.00 for the free shipping (that's why I got 5).

Finally back from hospital and baby is doing good Riley weights almost 7 1/2 pounds my liquid is good his movements werent a lot there so they said to keep an eye but I told her he must just be sleepy cuz he moves a lot at home and at night so she wasn't too worried I have another appoint Friday then Tuesday then just the day before the cesarian for blood test but its now coming so fast so I have to get my last things done this week and next then ill be 100% ready

Nikki
I really thought they would have induced u I hope it happens Wednesday or at least this week and I know it must have been uncomfortable all those needles and tests

I was told to call the hospital when contractions were every 5 minutes, lasting a minute each over at least an hour. Sounds like it's worth a ring.

 

[Kaiecee]

Forgot to mention that Riley supposedly has a lot of hair can't wait to see if its true or not

 

[mellywelly]

I've got really bad lower backache with occasional period type cramps, but had this a few days ago so I'm not going to read anything into it!

 

[Cailidgh]

argh i keep losing track of time with this pregnancy! For most of it I thought I had two extra weeks until it got to christmas and hte dates didnt add up to the time left over.. so thats 2 weeks disappeared somewhere.. then I thought I had 5 more sleeps before induction day... an its actually 3.. what is going on with my brain and numbers?! lol
