Looking for Bump Buddies! (due Early-Mid February 2013)

[vonamausi]

why blood specialist?

 

[vonamausi]

good morning! been up since 5.30 karl had accsident for first time in months after cat sang a song i swear.. i been restless all night getting up alot and waking often I cancelled my doc app for this morning cuz driveway is drifted so its gonna take me a while to clean that.. already done a little this morning but its been a bad few days with crampy feeling so i best not push it:-\

 

[Premomt]

yea don't push it von. all that you're saying about crampy feeling restlessness and loose bowels suggests to me that you're bod is prepping. Hopefully you can push it off a bit.

What was your dr appt for this am?


Mrs I dont have another appt till next week. At that appt I will be meeting with the partner dr at the hospital, be seen by him to get a "go ahead" for a birth center delivery. I don't anticipate any problems so hopefully all will go well with seeing him.

But I am still ( I think...) dealing with a yeast infection. I just can't tell!!!! So I am going to call the midwife and see if i can take another monistat package. Last one I spoke with told me she'd rather not have me do monistat because my cervix may be opening, and she'd rather put me on diflucan.

We shall see what they say when I call!

i go every 3 weeks to the blood specialist to make sure that my platelets aren't dropping too low. they are still dropping, but the dr doesn't seem to worried about it..i just am expecting not to get my epidural, since he won't give it to me if my platelets are 100,000 or less..and they were at 119,000 three weeks ago, and now at 109,000. Yikes!
take it easy von, don't want you going into labor quite yet!
i seen on fb that you got it plowed though so hopefully the weather will cooperate up there and not give you any more problems.
what was your app for? did you get to reschedule for soon?
premom good luck with your meeting, i'm sure you'll not have an issue.
have you wrote a birth plan or packed your bags? my doctor told me not to register at the hospital yet, that it was too early still. and that was when i was 34 weeks! lol, i think i'm going to go ahead and register anyways after this 36 week app since we'll be in the town i'm delivering at.

 

[vonamausi]

[vonamausi]

[shradha]

It's all aches and pulling and streching.....sleepless nights...now. I can feel my uterus pulling....
I am back from the appointment. Scan went well but couldn't see baby as they were more interested in seeing the measurements, umbilical arteries etc. Baby is 2kg. HB- 139, movements good. When I asked her about my DD, she said you still have time. Nothing to worry. I got my second shot of tt. She again told me to get my antibodies test done, surprising 2 weeks before I got one. I guess she is getting worried about my -ve blood group ..... My thyroid tests are normal..... Doctor was very happy by my reports...thank god...touchwood. I have put on 1 kg in a month. Bp- 140/80. Next appointment is after 15 days.

 

[shradha]

Nice bump vonamausi & premomt .....

Mrsbabybump- my doctor too keeps telling me to get blood work done in every 2 weeks. Reports are normal. Hemoglobin levels have gone down from 12 to 11, the doctor says it's ok, in fact good as baby is pumping the iron from me.

 

[vonamausi]

odd they.wont.tell u ur duedate! buggers!

 

[MrsBabyBump]

I don't get why they won't tell you your due date?.
Things are much different there..whew.
Glad everyone is doing good
I'm inpatiently awaiting my scan tomorrow. And anxious to see if labor is brought up. Or my induction date, I'd really love to have a set day! Lol.
Will update you ladies tomorrow!

 

[shradha]
