Ms Elizabeth - Congratulations!!! That's so exciting!

I have been looking for names today... OH took the kids out and I had finished all the housework so had nothing else to do. I forgot how hard it is!!

 

[Babygirl3289]

Dan-o : My next appointment is on May 5th and ill be doing the GTT and just an OB check up.

 

[Livvy]

Congrats Ms. Elizabeth!! so exciting isn't it??

Glad to hear everything went well babygirl!

AFM: I hate the days when baby is quiet

 

[heaveneats]

hey ladies, update on my end - had bleeding/spotting for 2 days i ended up going in to ER they monitored baby and he was kicking up a storm so they sent me home not worried about it. Midwife called and said she was sending me for an ultrasound so i had that today, they couldnt see any cause for bleeding but took detailed pictures anyway and did internal so measure cervix with most accuracy. I'm so tired and exhausted from it all

 

[Ms Elizabeth]

Thanks Emma and Livvy....we knew we would eventually...this little guy sped things up. Guess I'm still in shock!

 

[Harley Quinn]

Sorry I have been terrible about posting here, but I do read and catch up every few days!

Congrats on the engagement, Ms. Elizabeth! I guess we will have to call you Mrs. Elizabeth soon.

Livvy, I was starting to freak out a bit today because i hadn't felt baby move for a few hours, but I guess he was just having a long nap. Thought I had his patterns down, but looks like he will keep me guessing and stressing me out!

Heaven and baby girl, so glad things are looking good.

Emma, good luck with names. Any front-runners so far?

Afm, I have my gtt in the morning. Bleh. I expect to fail it, based on the numbers I got when I was tracking my blood sugars a week ago. But I won't get the official results until Monday or Tuesday most likely. Anyway, it'll be nice to have a few hours off work.

 

[sammynashley]

Congrats ms Elizabeth!!

Harleyquinn- hope your GTT goes alright, mines next week so not looking forward to it.

Livvy- I hate the quiet days too...I find if little man has a very acting day the net he'll be a little quieter as if he's worn himself out.

Heaven- glad everything seems ok with baby.

Afm- having a real tough time waking up lately. Hoping it's just a phase. Is anyone else getting the whooping cough injection??? I've got mine next week.

 

[Baby_Dreams]

I'll be getting my whooping cough injection soon too Sammy x

28 weeks today!

 

[babyvaughan]

Congrats Ms. Elizabeth!

Sammy I'm thinking of getting it at my next appt I originally planned to get it right after birth but I'm going to research and if all is well I will get it now!

 

[Ms Elizabeth]

Harley, Sammy and babyvaughan.....thank you ladies. it's been one heck of a night! besides getting up every hour cause I drank too much water....I kept looking at my finger thinking I was dreaming. the ring is too big (what do stores think ladies have man hands) but I just went old school and wrapped string around the bottom. lol i'm not ready to give it back to get it resized. lol

good luck on your test Harley!

Great news about the heart of the baby.
I am sorry for the BP and protein. I hope it will stay " stable" for a while, if you know what I mean.

Jrepp. You are so clever! I am so jealous of your skill.

I went to the dentist yesterday. I got a temporary filling and he sent me to a specialist root canal treatment. I am rather bummed out because if it. I will contact them today and see when they can see me. I am so scare!

My midwife also told me to count 10 movements per day from week 30. Until then there is no need to follow the moves closely, according to her.
My baby is not moving too much and the her movements are very soft, so I was worry about it. But they think it is normal.[/QUOTE]


I just had a root canal done last week. I also had a cracked tooth, but the pain from it was so intense I could not wait! They gave me a local injection which is not harmful to the baby. I also had an xray done... ask for double shields if you need one. Good luck!

My work has been crazy lately, both of my team members are off medically so I have been covering all positions. Its been so busy, I actually laid out a day and was like Im impressed. Up at 5am, me and the child out the door to daycare at 6am, drop her off I go to the GO train. Train in, I am at work by 8. Some days I am in house covering, others out at clinic for hours at a time. Then off for home at 4, in house with kid at 530ish, make supper, make lunch for next day. Play, feed, bathe and put silly toddler to bed. All why being 6 months preggers LOL. Go to bed around 9-930 ..sleep or well try LOL...up at 5am repeat lol


In other news, i had a scan yesterday, my boy is doing great,he weighs in just over a lb. Which is great I have GD so it means I am keeping great control of my sugars. He is incredibly active, made the OB laugh when she was scanning. I'm feeling great besides work exhausting me.

How is everyone else?

 

[Livvy]

Baby is moving a lot today, making up for sleeping all day yesterday!

MK that sounds really stressful. :O
Me and hubby are pretty sick so I called off work the past few days. Have to go in for Saturday and Sunday, though.

 

[Bubbles1088]

Hey ladies, haven't read back yet but hope all is well. We are enjoying our trip so far. It's nice, I love it out here.

I woke up this morning with some little stains around my right nipple. I'm leaking! I hope it doesn't become too frequent this early!

 

[Babygirl3289]

I am 24 weeks today! Yay

I do feel this pregnancy really is going by fast! I hope it continues to do so! I can't wait to meet my baby boy

Heaveneats- That is so scary - I am glad you got checked out - It sounds like things are looking ok tho? Prayers for you and baby

 

[BeautifulRose]

MK I feel your pain

I cant ake it anymore, I am calling my Dr Monday and asking to be put on bedrest/leave from work. Im in so much pain everytime I walk, idk if its just normal streching or I pulled a muscle or what but I end up having to leave everyday early which isnt a problem as far as job security but im not getting paid for the time I miss. If I go on leave I would only get 60% pay until I give birth and then I get 12 weeks at full pay. But I would get mor with the 60% pay than I am getting now with leaving early/calling off. Luckily with these low pay stubs I will be able to get help with rent and will qualify for food stamps until I give birth so honestly I think its the best option for me right now. Thank God I have already gotten all my big purchases out of the way for baby. Hopefully my Dr is ok with filling out the paperwork but with my high risk for pre term labor and already being dilated Im sure he will ok it.

Congrats on the engagement MsElizabeth

and yay for everyone with good scan news. Mine was reschedule for 4/20/15 at 845am I cant wait

 

[Livvy]

So maternity workout clothes. Is that a thing?? Because I can't find any anywhere. Also adequate bras. I just bought some a month ago but I already need new ones!
-facepalm-

 

[Jrepp]

Cdex- Thats scary but I'm glad you had an appointment so it wouldn't have been missed! Hopefully its just a one time thing and you can get back to normal!

I'm 26 weeks today one more week until 3rd trimester I'm so excited! Second day back at the gym (I do really light workouts lol) feels good to do something positive only bummer is the scale keeps going up! I dont eat terrible but I dont eat good either, so looks like I'm going to have to eat really good from now on. I've gained 22lbs! My goal is only 30 and I have 13 weeks to go not.. looking good! LOL I know he is on the bigger side and my boobs grew but I also know that I like cookies, snacking at night

lol. I love the snacks too!

Oh cdex! Glad your glucose came back positive.

Hope you other ladies are doing well. Love the scan photos!

I'm going for my second 4d scan Wednesday. Excited!

And....it's official....I'm engaged! I feel 15 years younger aa giddy as I am!

Congrats Ms. Elizabeth!! so exciting isn't it??

AFM: I hate the days when baby is quiet

I think quiet baby days are the scariest! I always fear the worst but thankfully have the doppler for reassurance.

Congrats ms Elizabeth!!

Harleyquinn- hope your GTT goes alright, mines next week so not looking forward to it.

I am planning on getting it along with hubby at 28 weeks.

Congrats Ms. Elizabeth!

Sammy I'm thinking of getting it at my next appt I originally planned to get it right after birth but I'm going to research and if all is well I will get it now!

According to my doctor it's recommenedrd that women get the pertussis vaccine at 28 weeks so that baby picks up the antibodies that are being produced by the momma.

Baby is moving a lot today, making up for sleeping all day yesterday!

MK that sounds really stressful. :O
Me and hubby are pretty sick so I called off work the past few days. Have to go in for Saturday and Sunday, though.

I'm glad your tot is moving more today!

-facepalm-

I've seen maternity yoga pants and workout gear in the maternity section at Target. They have some pretty good maternity bras as well for not a lot of money.
