Mowat, how you feeling? Few more days until my prediction XD

 

[mowat]

Yup, keeping my eye on 37 weeks! Saw the doctor yesterday and she suggested doing a sweep at my next appointment. Not sure if that's necessary or not----do we need to rush these babies out? I see a different doctor at my next appointment so I'll see what she says. Sleeping is getting harder and harder and I twisted my knee (I don't think it likes my extra weight) and can barely walk, so maybe it would be a good idea to get this show on the road.

So what's new with everyone? Been quiet here lately.

Hey ladies. Sorry I've been MIA. Still kinda lurking, just so hard to find time to post. I feel like I'm drowning tbh. I'm loving every minute with my girls...just tough to balance work and home and family time and no sleep!

 

[butterflywolf]

Mowat, Yikes on the knee! And wow a sweep already?

I've been busy here. My grandpa is dying and they give him until Friday. Then Claire is taking after me with being accident prone. :/

Eyemom, glad to know everything is good on your end ^^ I agree that it can be hard to balance everything though. You'll find your balance sooner or later though.

Still here always here think AF will show tomorrow

After my Stellar chart I'm not so Happy

 

[nimbec]

Hi everyone just to say i'm stalking Mowat not long now - sorry to hear about your knee!! I think they only rush them out if they are running out of room or are distressed over here but it varies from country to country and probably doctor to doctor! Thinking of you!

Sis sorry about you thinking AF is coming its such a hard journey - still no bfp here either doesn't get any easier!

Butterfly blimey where has the time gone 3rd tri!! yikes!! Can't believe how quick time goes Harrison was 2 years old last week!

Barbs i love reading your blog for updates what a cutie he is!!

No news my end i just wanted to pop in and say hi, i'm not actively ttc at the moment as it all got too much for me - if it happens then great if not i will accept its not ment to be xx

 

[butterflywolf]

Mowat, Anything starting?

Sis, AF show or still perhaps maybe a BFP instead?

Barb, loved the update on your blog. Seems like this person is exactly what you needed. Hopefully it all goes well.

nimbec, Time really is flying. There are days I'm anxious and days I'm fine XD Right now though everything literally is a blur this week. Between my Grandpa and Claire having two left feet this week I just can't keep up. Good news is there's a convention we're going to this weekend that should be a nice thing for me. And holy moly 2 already! Don't get me thinking about Claire being two soon X_X She'll be 20 months in two weeks. I hope his b-day was a splendid one!

 

[Sis4Us]

Still no AF but got a temp jump think its the bug and stress delaying things Still BFN not even a squinter at 15dpo that's gotta show something by now!!!

 

[mowat]

Nothing yet. My labour with my DS was relatively quick so I'm kind of expecting the same. I had a sore stomach one evening and woke up around midnight with cramping. Went to the hospital at 7 am when my waters broke and was fully dilated. Would have been a really fast delivery, but DS was super stuck! Probably a good thing!

 

[butterflywolf]

Sis, I'm sorry to see by your chart that you started your period Your chart was looking so good too! Hopefully this month!

Mowat, I think I may be wrong about my prediction XP Hopefully soon though! Still can't wait to see what you have! So exciting!

 

[Sis4Us]

Yes it makes it harder w such a great chart

 

[butterflywolf]

Had my apt today. Fundal height measuring at 31. I have a growth scan on the 20th of April and may or may not have another scan afterwards. More than likely I'll be induced early.

Baby is head down and heart rate was 160 and he was extremely active. He always is though at the time we went.

My blood pressure will be monitored since it was a little higher than normal but they think it's due to me being anxious now. Which he knows I get. So I will more than likely start laying down for them to take my BP. Did the same thing with Claire the last two months. So I go every two weeks right now. Sadly next apt I don't see my doctor He's on vacation so I get someone I never met before and a female. (Sorry to those that like female OBGYN's but I do not. I just don't trust female doctors and that is my personal opinion I will not bash them though). So I'm going to be anxious and annoyed at this apt :/ Oh well.

Main thing is my BP and health of me and baby are fine.

 

[Sis4Us]

Any babies yet Mowat!!

 

[mowat]

False alarm today, but no babies! Woke up for my 4am pee last night and my stomach was cramping off and on. Couldn't get back to sleep and the cramping kept coming and going for several hours. Seemed like how my son's labour started. OH stayed home from work, but nothing ever happened and my symptoms disappeared. Boo! Saw the doctor today but she didn't even do an internal exam. She said she'd do a sweep at next week's appointment but wants me to go for a couple of non-stress tests this week.

A little disappointed it wasn't labour, but my mom arrives tomorrow so maybe it's best to wait a day or two. Come on babies!

 

[eyemom]

Hi ladies! Sis, sorry about AF, stings so much more when your chart was so pretty. Here's to another pretty chart with temps that stay up up up.....

Butterfly - I'm a female optometrist. I'm so offended. No I'm really not, just had to kid you a bit. Besides I'm not a medical Dr anyway. Hope all goes well and your next appt turns out to be a pleasant surprise.

Mowat! Ahh I'm getting so excited about these babies!

 

[butterflywolf]

Mowat, Eek so close! Maybe today will be the day. Your body seems to be gearing up.

eyemom, XD I'm just real picky when it comes to trusting people when it comes to medical needs. Most women that I have come across in a doctor field around here are just bitches and give me the bad vibe not to trust them. I can't say I have ever had a bad female doctor myself, it's just I listen to my gut.

Good news is I did realize the doctor I am set up with for the 7th is actually the one that delivered Claire and I didn't mind her. So that's at least a good thing XD Then again I didn't say two words to her unless it was me swearing during the pushing phase. I literally only saw her for 15 minutes or so while pushing and then another 15 minutes or so afterwards for my hemorrhage. I can't say if she talked to me or not. I wasn't focused on making new friends lol

 

[eyemom]

Yup gotta listen to your gut. What, not making friends while pushing? Lololol I remember talking to people before the baby came out (first one). After she was born though I didn't really care about anyone but her. And my husband I guess. ;-)

 

[butterflywolf]

I was too busy making up new swear word combo's XD This is the only one that I fully remember using so pardon my French here "Jesus F... Burger". Don't ask me where the heck that one came from. My doula/SIL was so shocked and was laughing her butt off that I actually swore like that. I rarely swear, especially in front of others unless you have me ticked off. I will never forget her telling me that she thought I never swore though XD

 

[eyemom]

Creative even in the throes of childbirth?

With this last one, all I ever said was, "OhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGod...." I never say that either. Not like an exclamation anyway.

 

[butterflywolf]

lol I'm curious what I'll be saying this go around. Oh God would be a huge improvement for me during labor lol. Might be more amusing though to see what swear combos I can come up with though.

Now I'm curious what other ladies where saying during child birth XD
