March 2013 babies - we all have our beautiful babies :)

[trying2becalm]

I am soooo happy today feeling poo but hey ho.......... I was getting worried that I wasn't feeling my baby move as much as he/she should have been. I had a dream last night that the baby was moving loads.............. well this morning while lying in bed I felt the hardest kick and I saw it too It has really put my mind at ease!

xx

So happy for you! Can't wait till I can feel some kicks and know everything is ok

Hi all.

We had our scan today and stayed So amazing to see a close up of the heart and see the spine, kidneys, stomach etc! Sonographer was really good and talked us through and showed us everything he was doing.

Baby still seemed pretty chilled out and its legs were crossed at the ankles which was cool to see. Two photos:

I'm glad it's not just me.. I was starting to worry.. I don't have the pain every day, but some is way worse then others .. Mine is in my right butt cheek.. Of course today while it was bad I had so much walking and standing to do that I was so sore I was wobbling by the end of the day

Oh my! Thank you so much for posting about this. I have had this (in my right butt cheek) too!! Didn't have a clue what it was, just that it hurt!

Suffering from a cold at the moment and going to the docs today because of my cough, ESP as I have asthma. I will mention the butt stabbing pain too.

Let me know what the dr says, maybe there are some good tricks to help it!! Hope you feel better soon

I really envy those that are staying team I really wanted to but oh really want to know.. Plus I think it will help him bond more if he does know.. He said he wants to buy something for the baby the day we find out.

Ahh youre lucky paula, I really haven't felt much at all... The odd little flutter every now and again, but nothing definite and I don't feel it every day can't wait to start feeling definite kicks!

Lovely scan pics Lou, I can't wait for my next scan

I am also still not feeling definite kicks, it worries me but them I remember that everyone is different. I do think I feel baby flutters, but still nothing definite.

 

[skeet9924]

I feel flutters once in awhile.. Mostly at night when I'm laying in bed reading.. Nothing regular though

Hiya - didn't go to the docs in the end but I did find this great tip
put a tennis ball under their butt cheek and roll around on it to work the muscle that is pressing on the nerve. The muscle is too deep to really work through massage

Other option is to get DH to get his elbow in there

 

[skeet9924]

Well I might have to go with the tennis ball during the week as I don't see oh but maybe on the weekend he can put his elbow on my butt..

 

[rose.]

That's a great idea, as it feels way too deep in there to be able to relieve it by massaging it! Going to try that

 

[baby_maybe]

I had dreadful sciatica in my right butt cheek in my third pregnancy and I never did find a way to get rid of it. Didn't have a hint of it last time round, but this time I feel it sometimes ever so slightly and I'm sure it will start to get worse as 3rd tri approaches!

Great scan pics Lou!!

We had our scan today as well. Everything is looking absolutely perfect with bubba, and measuring right on date

The tech said she is fairly confident it is a girl - but to save our receipts if we go shopping! She has 20 years experience though, so I'm inclined to trust her. We'll have a follow up in four weeks to check on the heart - not that anything is wrong, it is just too early to see a couple of things - and hopefully we'll get confirmation then I've attached the pic if any of you have any thoughts on gender!

Me too! Left butt cheek. It comes and goes...my chiropractor recommended stretching - sitting on the ground with both legs stretched out in front, then bending the one leg and bringing your foot as close to your butt as possible, then leaning forward toward the extended leg with a hunched back (no straight back). I found that to help a bit but mostly I think it's the chiro visits and massage that is really keeping me pain-free for the most part. I highly recommend doing both if you can swing it...loosening the muscles via massage really helps you get a good adjustment that stays in place longer.

Lovin' all the scan pics and news! Congrats all around
Our anatomy scan is scheduled for next wed the 17th...then we plan to do the reveal over the weekend so I'll post what team we're on as soon as we find out! Which hopefully LO will cooperate and will be next weekend

Thanks for the advice on the sciatic nerve problem, I have been suffering this and thought it was just me!

Think I may be fighting a cold as have had a sore throat for a few days, hope it comes to nothing!

I hope you don't get a cold, I've just had one which turned into a cough and it's just going new after 2 drawn out weeks! Take care
