[bamagurl]

That is completely understandable! Keep us updated

 

[Sweetz33]

Ouch! I just got a steroid shot in my butt

 

[meggiemay93]

Sweetz I'm praying the doctors are able to keep him in for awhile longer and that you don't have a hassle with all the doctors!

Pinkcasi It is very hard going every month and being hopeful just to be crushed by AF. Sometimes you just have to cry or get mad. Some women find it helpful to write a journal or take a walk.

AFM Af showed up yesterday, but that's ok since I wasn't really trying this last month. This month i'm still going to try not to get my hopes up and to mostly focus on my overall health. And i'm trying to get a job at a post office. It'll be my first job ever!

Sooooo.....wellll.....ummmm...... on my way to celebration hospital to get medication to stop labor.... that's right folks, I'm already dialating. 33 weeks on Saturday....*sigh* they will be doing an ultrasound and checking EVERYTHING and doing all they can to stop labor for at least 2 more weeks.

Keeping you in my thoughts !!

 

[mackjess]

sweetz, praying for you and your lo. so glad your docs are monitoring you so closely. I'm sure with you getting in the hosp so soon they can keep him in there long enough.

meggie, congrats on your job hunting. And hopefully you can get in for some tests if you are still ttc when the benefits kick in.

fx for all my ttc ladies. I know it's tough but I know we will keep seeing the bfps rolling in.

 

[nevergivingup]

Oh my did i miss a bit...

SWEETZZZZ what in the world....happened between yesterday and today Baby Zander is def ready to meet his wonderful mommy unfortunately he is a bit to early but i do believe everything will be ok. Glad you made it to the doctors early enough to catch him before he fight his way in the world. KEEP US UPDATED SWEETZ or i will go crazy worrying about you!!!!! O how i wish Stork was here to hear that baby Zander will hopefully be here in 2 more wks, Lord willing. BETHANY (Stork) WHERE ARE YOU HUN, WE MISS YOU!! Sweetz take it easy and KEEP US POSTED!!!

Sorry to Pinkcasi and meggiemay ab AF showing so of course its only fair for me to think positive and say this is a beginning to a fresh start dont get to down your rainbow baby may just be right there.

MamaTex: Hi ma'am and thanks for being soo sweet and following my story to know that this journey wasnt easy for any of us and this was def a long journey and im ready to reach the finish line and dont worry you will be 33weeks too in no time, once you hit 13 weeks it tends to fly by at least i think so.

AFM: SWEETZ i cant stop thinkin ab ya now.....i def need to stop complaining about my Constant Braxton Hicks. Back to studyn.......SWEETZ take it easy..but still yet excited to hear and meet baby Zander soon hopefully in 2 wks of course!

 

[Starry Night]

Sweetz - oh my! I hope the doctors are able to convince Zander to stay tight for a few more weeks at least! But with all the monitoring you're getting now it seems like he will be in very good hands should he choose to pop out to say 'hi' early. Take care!

Pinkcasi - I agree with MamaTex. You aren't going to feel positive all the time and that's OK. I don't think it's healthy to dwell otherwise you may dig yourself deeper in, but it's important to let off steam and to be angry. It's a natural feeling.

I really hope you have brighter days soon.

*** *UPDATE*****

I'm home and going to bed.

I'm on strict bedrest, medication daily for next 2 weeks to stop contractions, need to go back to hospital tomorrow for another steroid shot, and back to OB tomorrow bc shadow its still on his heart. They said after 2 weeks can stop meds and if I go into labor it's all good.

2 MORE WEEKS XANDER-DOO!!!! STAY IN JUST 2 MORE WEEKS BABY!!!!!!

 

[Starry Night]

What does a shadow on the heart mean? If you don't want to discuss it that's fine. I just never heard of that. I hope all is well and that Xander is completely healthy.

How strict of bed rest is it? Are you allowed to get up to the bathroom? With my DS I was on moderate bed rest. I could get up to go to the bathroom, pour myself a drink, sit at the computer, etc. Just nothing intense. And I could only take car rides that took me from point A to point B (such as going to the hospital for bi-weekly ultrasounds). It was all very boring but definitely worth it in the end. It's a good time for guilt-free TV watching.

Take care.

 

[Sweetz33]

I'm allowed to go to bathroom, pour a drink, no sitting up or standing longer then 5-10 min if at all possible. No driving period. I can be a passenger obviously, but seat needs to be reclined. It is gunna suck, but I'll do whatever it takes to keep Xander safe

 

[mowat]

So great that you're getting great care Sweetz! You can do it!

 

[nevergivingup]

YAYYY Sweetz, glad to hear everything is calmer now. And forgive me fit calling him Zander.....I def love Xander better!

 

[runnergrl]

Glad you are at home Sweetz! take it easy!

 

[Sweetz33]

Lol s' ok never....common mistake at docs for follow up.... so so tried

 

[Sweetz33]

Oh and btw.... he is in head down position already weighing in at approximately 4lbs 8oz. Not sure if I already mentioned that. Kinda out of it. Measuring around 34-35 weeks, new EDD 3/2/13..... but docs say I will go into labor possible in 2-3 weeks. DH is tweaking out lol

 

[ESwemba84]

Hope everything goes well, Sweetz.

 

[meggiemay93]

Sweetz You and Xander are definitely in my prayers!! Take it easy and make sure you listen to the docs! I'll be praying the 2 weeks go by quickly for you. It can't be much fun not being able to do anything especially knowing your baby is almost here!

Hi to everyone else! I hope everyone is having a great week!

AFM DH and I decided that we're gonna wait 1 more year and if I'm not pregnant by then I'll go see a doctor. DH is really praying for me to get pregnant now he's not so excited about maybe having to give a sample.

 

[bamagurl]

Glad to hear things are back under control sweetz! Ugh I think I did the same thing and said Zander instead of Xander! Sorry sweetz haha can I blame that on baby brain haha

 

[nevergivingup]

Bamagurl..haha I'm blaming it on Baby Brain

Sweetz: Wowsers....now you're due b4 me...go you!! My little man better keep his butt in there until 03/05/13.

Meggiemay : Glad to hear ab you and DH on planning if things don't work by then. A lot of people just wait and wait when it can be something so simple maybe nothing. So my FX for ya ma'am that this is your year!!

 

[Sweetz33]

Back home, exhausted yet again.

Got in argument with dumb ass doctor that I hate (you know the one that tried to give me penicillin even though I'm so allergic to that med it will kill me) bc she said there is no way I should and can be dilated, and my midwife was wrong. Tried to tell the nurses not to give me the 2nd steroid shot. Nurses said we got the orders from a different doc, my normal doc, so take it up with him. Stupid bitch almost put me in tears. I told nurses if she is the on call when I do go in labor to stick a cork in me bc I don't want her near me.

I'm on medication now to stop contractions AND they are writing a letter for my landlord to let him know it is medically unsafe for me and baby to move ATM and for my safety and baby safety, he needs to give us an extension on our lease WOOHOO lol

Small miracles....with my super ice chip craving (ty anemia) they guy at the local gas station that sells the softer ice let me get a 52oz cup for 27cents and say I can refill it as much as I need to for no charge. YAY!!! Little things please me these days lol
