March 29, 2011 Bump Buddies!!! 6 Boys, 1 and only Girl

[BabySeal]

I have been sleeping all day too! I feel so out of it and can barely drag myself to the bathroom. Heres to us feeling better

 

[braijackava]

Here are my kiddos while we are sharing!

 

[MissFox]

Thanks ladies for sharing all your pics! Love seeing the kids and hope to have lots of my own pictures of my kdis someday!
I don't know about all of you but I'm so excited about next christmas! I don't have my GTT until January. I feel so far behind!
Anyways- one part of my work day is over and I'm off to another one. I've been having some crazy rib pain but I think it's just cause I'm short- Dr Google and lots of other women are having it too- and tey are all around 5ft tall like me.

 

[BellaBlu]

I love the pics of all the kiddo's.. you all have beautiful children, truly!
MissFox, you are NOT missing out.. the test blows. Excuse my mannerism but it's 2 in the morning the next day and I still feel like total crap. Ugh.

I just woke up with braxton hicks because I accidentily had an orgasm in my sleep (good dream I guess?). Most people wouldn't complain about that but I've been avoiding orgasms for the last 2 weeks because I don't like the way braxton hicks feel, it makes me all paranoid like the baby is going to try and come out! Anyways, sure enough now I'm awake..

I think you're right Brai- I think we're getting to the rough part now and it's only going to get better from here
I hope you end up not having the preeclampsia hun, thats a real bummer

 

[blessedmomma]

here are mine...

 

[BellaBlu]

blessedmomma! they are precious what a great looking bunch..

you ladies are all so lucky, I can't wait!

 

[braijackava]

Wow we all make really cute kids!

Glucose test came back normal, but my hemoglobin came back really low. Dr. says he wants me to take Ferro-Sequels 325mg two times a day for iron-deficiency anemia. Other than that feeling extrememly tired today didnt sleep well had alot of BH last night some where painful, but they have stopped-Thank Goodness!

Hope your all doing well, talk to you ladies soon!

 

[S_a_m_m_y]

What do you guys think....I was literally throwing up today....do you think its from the anemia or another bug? Feeling so so so tired, started Ferro-Sequels but couldnt keep it down. Man I feel

 

[BellaBlu]

Sorry you feel so crappy sammy I think it's probably from the anemia, that can cause all kinda of problems. I used to be really badly anemic, and I was sick to my stomach constantly. Hopefully once they get that iron through your system you will start to feel better.

If you have a gold ring, real gold.. you can do the "anemia" test.. you rub the ring across your face and if it makes a grey line it means you're anemic. This always used to work on me, and now that my iron is okay.. no line shows up anymore. weird but it works.

[edit: out of curiousity I looked it up, I guess they tested that theory and it's been debunked.. it just has to do with individual skin chemistry. Bummer, I always thought that was the coolest trick! weird that it doesn't work on me now though, and it used to ]

 

[MissFox]

Crazy about the ring! I'm sore and tired.. off to bed.
Sorry you're feeling sick Sammy.

 

[S_a_m_m_y]

havent tried it...lol just feel like sleeping, was in bed all day yesterday, lucky son decided to take one long mid day nap instead of two (one in the am & one in the pm-is the norm usually) see feeling queezy and still havent taken prenatal or Ferro-Sequels today as I know its what did me in. Going to call Dr. about the severe nausea

 

[blessedmomma]

sorry your sick sammy.

took a bump pic for my sis in law today so i will post it. its 29+2 for me. it doesnt look that big because this pregnancy is very low. i always look bigger when they are high up and smaller when they are low

 

[BellaBlu]

GORGEOUS Blessed!! Thrilled to see a bump pic from you! You can really see the shape in the top pic.. Lookin' good mama.

& I love the color of that bathroom.. I'm jealous.

 

[S_a_m_m_y]

GREAT BUMP PIC Blessed! Yay for bump pics!

It seems like I feel fine if I have my ice and if I dont then I feel sick. does ice have some kind of correlation with iron levels?

 

[braijackava]

Oh my pelvis and back are killing me today! Hopefully this is not a sign of things to come

 

[MissFox]

I believe it does Sammy. I was kinda wondering about that in the past when you said you wanted a lot of ice.
I'm gonna check out Dr. Google and see if there is anything else to it...
Yup- there are a few pages that mention chewing ice or craving ice as a sign of anemia.

 

[blessedmomma]

thats interesting about the ice and iron correlation. i have craved ice with every pregnancy like crazy, but have never had low iron levels or any kinda anemia. i wonder if im borderline or something? i even like the way the ice tastes when it starts to melt into water. i dont know why i like it better than regular water, it just tastes so yummy after it melts. sometimes i just leave a huge cup of ice out and drink it after it melts... but shortly after i have my babies the ice love goes away

 

[BellaBlu]

I've always loved ice, even when I'm not pregnant. Like when I was working, I constantly had a cup of ice to crunch on when it wasn't busy!

I especially love the ice from Sonics fast food place, those perfect little crunchy squares.. eeeesh.

Happy Christmas my beautiful pregnant buddies !!!
Hope you all have a lovely day x x x
