My reflux is horrible too

 

[Bubbles1088]

Blah it's horrible isn't it? It's making me feel unwell all around. Tums help temporarily, until I have to eat again. I've already taken 4 today and I can't exceed 6 in a 24 hour period since I'm pregnant, and I KNOW I'll need them soon after dinner.

Is it making you nauseous at all? I have a feeling last night's dinner made me feel ill since it was food I'm not used to eating, but I'm just curious. I know too much acid can wreak havoc on your digestive tract.

I have been having bad all day reflex for over a month now, sitting/standing it doesn't matter even water comes back up! Doc said babies pushing up on everything is why its so bad!

 

[jbk]

I had a 3D/4D US today and he DID NOT cooperate at all! I get to be rescanned on Saturday, but for now here is my little Anderson Glenn! He is in the fetal position with his knees up to his face and his hand covering the rest!

 

[jbk]

I have been completely MIA, but I just finished nursing school and will graduate next week!! Maybe I will be on more now!

Congrats! That's amazing! LPN or RN?

I am an LPN

RN

 

[Livvy]

I have been having reflux/feeling nauseous too. :/ It's like first trimester again with the nausea. Is that normal? Thought I was gonna throw up a couple times this week in the morning.

Has anyone heard from Tasha?

 

[Harley Quinn]

Congrats, jbk! Must feel so nice to be done!

Bubbles, my reflux has been worse in third tri. Still not too bad, though, so I guess I can't complain. But it does make me nauseated at times. And I have noticed that acidic foods make it worse, like too much tomato (or tomato-y sauces) for example.

Welcome back, Khatif! Hope you had a nice relaxing holiday. I can't remember if you've missed any big news. Some ladies are starting to schedule their c-section dates, which is pretty exciting! Including Tonya later this month with her twins!!!

AFM, I am super excited because I bought a woven wrap today! Just a "cheap" Chimparoo one, but I'm really looking forward to learning how to use it (and DH too). Might have to give it a go with my 21 month old to see if he likes it, since it will work for kids ups to 35 lbs.

Also, have any of you started to notice that you might be losing teensy bits of mucus plug? I swear, the last few days I've had a little bit of thick, green mucus a few times when I wiped after peeing. I know it doesn't really mean anything at this point, but has anyone else noticed something similar around 30 weeks? I don't remember that with my other two.

 

[Tasha]

Congratulations lpn.

Hope the natural birth class went well livvy.

Bubbles no reflux here but when my daughter had it really bad as a baby, I had to raise the head end of the bed. Maybe that would help.

Oh no jbk. Anderson is a cheeky one but at least you'll see him again soon.

Harley my plug has never been green, I assume you know you've no infection?

Khatif I hope you had a good holiday.

Livvy, I'm here and okay. Just very busy as its my little girls 7th birthday on Tuesday, my 30th on Thursday and my angel daughters 8th birthday on Saturday and I move in two weeks. Been at the hospital on Wednesday for a scan and Dr, that went well and she organised more support for me thank you for asking.

It's a constant festival of reflux and heartburn over here. Zantac is taking the edge off but it's still uncomfortable. Everything seems to set it off to some degree, but acidic foods are definitely worse. No other real complaints, though - I'm in the clear as far as GD goes which is a huge relief.

Congrats, jbk, hope you can take things easy from now on!

 

[Medzi]

Livvy I'm the same as you. Reflux and nausea bad... Have been puking quite a bit.

I'm have tons of braxton hicks contractions too. Lately I've been feeling quite on edge, like the baby is going to come soon but I really hope not. I think maybe I just need to try and relax and have more down time. Thngis have been so busy, maybe too much. Especially with my high bp. But it is so hard to take it easy with a very busy toddler...

Hi all

Going back a few days but.... Lovely bumps ladies

Tasha - you sound hectic! Hope your dd has a lovely birthday on Tuesday & you have a good birthday too

Tonya - so excited for you meeting your twins soon!!

Jbk - congrats on graduating

Harley Quinn - I've not noticed any plug, but I'm only 29 weeks here.

Afm - reflux & heartburn... Yep. Oh the joys!! Had two of my four specialist appointments this week - both went well. One of my consultants was very switched on & told me to insist on seeing her and not a registrar in future. This is after I called in a senior specialist - whom I know she has spoken to At least I feel listened to now! Going to see the senior specialist tomorrow so I'm hoping to have a plan for birth this time tomorrow I have a week off with dd & oh this week so we're going to do some nice things as a family of three whilst we still can - thinking of the beach, a kids theme park & possibly a fairy forest - very excited!!

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Happy Mothers Day Ladies

Question? How often does your baby get hiccups? I feel like my son is constantly hiccuping like 4 times a day. With DD I never noticed her have them once so just making sure it's normal.

 

[Khatif]

I never feel her having hicups

 

[Bubbles1088]

Happy Mother's Day, ladies!

Harley, I get that sometimes when I wipe, but I have the whole pregnancy. I think the time to be concerned is if it's bloody.

Rose, I feel mine hiccup 3-4 times a day too.

AFM, my DH got me a Mother's Day card and roses! They were sitting on the counter this morning! And to think I got a little miffed at him because he woke me up setting them up (he works late). I had no idea! It's so sweet!

 

[Livvy]

Happy Mother's Day everyone

Tasha, so glad to hear everything is going well. I'm glad the docs are getting you more support! Please keep us updated as plans come into place/change for you.

Rose, I feel mine get hiccups once every few days. But I've heard lots of people say they feel them more often. It's a good sign because it means baby is practicing breathing!

 

[Livvy]

Oh yeah, 32 week bump!

 

[Bubbles1088]

Love the bump, Livvy!

 

[Srrme]

Happy Mommy's day!

My baby gets the hiccups 3-4 times a day. All my babies have.

 

[k4th]

I'm beginning to feel hiccups a couple of times a day. Dd had them loads both before & after she was born. So cute

 

[babyvaughan]

Happy Mothers Day to all of you! I took my mom to breakfast and bought her a new outfit my fiance bought me roses and my favorite candy in case I had a sweet tooth! Mom and I were picturing next year with a little 10 month old its going to be so much different but were excited!
