everyone. Glad you had a nice shower Shell's.

Now that you say it i have seen the Bromelain Tanikit. I have also read about eating all the pineapple I think i would rather take the supplement. Can't imagine the cankor sores from eating all the pineapple. Are you going to try it tanikit??

Hope everyone has a great day!

I read in third tri before I was even in third tri....well long story short I saw a thread in 3rd tri awhile back that stated its not actually the pineapple meat but the core that has all the bromelain in it to help ripen the cervix. Hope this helps...I am going to research it on google and see if its correct.

Just went to sleep last night. No more bleeding or pain, and my BP is pretty good this morning. Just going to relax and mention it all to my doctor on tuesday. Thanks for all the comments though.

 

[S_a_m_m_y]

Glad to hear Brai! Hope everything stays the same...

 

[MumtoJ]

Shell, glad you had a fab shower, I've been using clarey sage & lavendar in the bath so let me know how you get on ...

Sarah, have you posted any more of your photos from your Mat Shoot? sorry if I've missed them but would love to have a look.

Brai, glad everything seems normal today (well what is normal for the moment ...)

I think my OH is still in denial that this is all happening, keep prompting him that he should pack a bag especially as we've been asked to go in as soon as labour starts for checking due to being VBAC so he could have a long wait around. But has he - no !!! But saying that he has now on a very regular basis started asking "everything ok", "you ok" which I think translates into - do I need to start panicing yet ...

Tanikit, how are you doing these days? are you getting the support you need and has life settled down any?

Rottpaw, hope you are doing ok have you gone home this weekend?



Hope everyone else is doing well

i want pinapple sooo bad its really nice with a little black pepper on it

 

[braijackava]

Has anyone else gotten random really bad throbbing lower back pain? Its like everytime i sit down. Today i have gotten it a couple times and one time i couldn't talk through it it hurt so bad. I keep feeling something is off or about to happen, but i think it is just wishful thinking.

thats how my first labour started is your baby back to back

 

[braijackava]

I don't know, they didn't mention it at my ultrasound a week or so ago. My first was, so i guess he could be?

 

[blessedmomma]

brai- i have sharp pains in my back but think its from baby's head laying on it with no cushion.

cathryn- im glad your feeling better. hope your OH finally packs his bags, lol! sounds like he is worried about you though, so that is good. hope the clary sage and lavender works good

tanikit and natty- its almost time!!!! hope you ladies are ready for this!

to all. read all i missed but cant remember everything that was said.
hope everyone is doing good

one sign of back to back is if your belly buton had not poped out

 

[readynwilling]

No MumtoJ i haven't posted any more cause i haven't gotten them yet hopefully soon!!

Hope the back pain is nothing Brai.

I have lost my belly button (its not popped but was MEGA deep before i was preggo and is flat now) so hopefully thats a good sign that J isn't back to back.

After reading about pineapple last night i was craving it to

Got mega work done in my basement that was the first step to getting all this baby stuff unpacked and assembled. I need to move stuff from my upstairs down to make room for the baby stuff.

Ready I only found out today that bromelain exists in capsules and I am not sure that they have them over here - also not sure how long you have to take them for or at what dose that is why I asked on here - if it was a once off I might try it the day before induction.

Brai glad things seemed better this morning - hope they stay fine.

MumtoJ hope your OH packs is bag - lol men. I am not sure what I want DH to bring with him or even when he will come since I do not expect him to be there at 04:00am - maybe around 07:30 would be good as things could have started by then - maybe I should just phone if they do. Things have settled somewhat here - DD is very nervous and clingy since she knows Mom is leaving - DH drew up a chart to tear numbers off of so she knows the latest baby will be here but it may be making her nervous.

Blessed not sure I will ever feel truely ready, but am getting more excited now. You are also getting very close - how do you feel about it?

Debating whether to go to church tomorrow as it was a bit of a battle last week, but I also want to get out the house every day so probably will go and just take it easy. We have the inlaws coming for lunch tomorrow - they wanted us to go there, but I feel its too far to drive now and would also be too far from the hospital if anything were to happen.

this made me laugh! everyone i know has their belly button pop. mine never does. its kinda deep to start with so it just gets deeper. i think its so cute all popped out at the end on other women, wish mine would...

 

[blessedmomma]

tanikit- i am feeling more ready now. part of it is knowing that his fluid is getting lower despite my best efforts to lay on my butt and drown in water. i was thinking the same thing about church tomorrow. DH and i were talking about it and decided to just make up our minds tomorrow depending on how much sleep i get and how i feel. the kids love to go so he can still take them if i dont. i kinda want to just to get out of the house and actually be up. since bedrest isnt really working i was thinking of being up and about this week. my butt seriously hurts from sitting on it. i kinda feel grounded after having a baby for a couple months. i really dont go much of anywhere so would like to do something this weekend and maybe next week too. church would be good since i can go and not be on my feet the whole time. probably wont be going for a few weeks anyways after baby gets here.

would love to know if all the stuff everyone is trying works or not. think its too late for me this time, but would be good to know for next time if there is one

lol- and i think even harder to clean when its a deep inny

 

[Tanikit]

Lol about the belly buttons - mine does pop out - in fact it is so popped out it hurts sometimes now.

Melissa just be careful and don't be too much out and about as the bed rest may be doing more than you realise (as in the fluids could have dropped even further than they have) Nonetheless I know how you feel - I'mnot even on bed rest and really need to get out and I am sure once DD is born I will be taking her out fairly soon too else I will go mad (I took my first DD out very early on too for the same reason - need company lol)

Hoping for some sleep tonight but will have to see...

 

[msarkozi]

Mine hasn't popped out either, but mine is deep as well. I clean mine with a q-tip

I've been having a few contractions again and crampy today.....as much as I wish it was the start of labour, I just know it is all false labour again!! I just read on fb though that someone I know is in labour right now and she isn't due until the middle of March. I'm kinda upset about people having their babies when I am due so soon and still not having mine It's not fair! lol!

 

[Nixilix]

It's only going to get worse! But imagine being due at the end of the month I think That's worse

 

[braijackava]

My bellt button never pops. It is really deep too. Called doctor and they said the pain under my ribs sounds more like muscle pain and not my liver, so i feel much better about that. My baby shower is tomorrow! Very exciting!
