Iluv - glad your cervix is looking good.

Hehe Pad - I think I was lucky and got the orange flavoured stuff. It really did taste just like Fanta.

Then after all that fasting I had a huge lunch followed by waaaayyyy too many pancakes in the afternoon with my mum and around 9pm the indigestion hit me. I'm such an idiot, it hurt so much and didn't shift till about 5am.

 

[MizzPodd]

So all this talk about sex... I had two big Os last night waking up out of a dream!!! So frustrating!!! Not supposed to do anything to simulate uterus lol

 

[ILuvBabies200]

Mizz I'm jealous! LOL I cannot accomplish that if I tried.

 

[ILuvBabies200]

He is head down too Mizz! or was on Monday. I know that can change. He is kicking the crap outta my ribs though!

 

[EMTAmanda]

So not to toot my own horn or anything but hubby just better love me! I got his birthday present yesterday...a new leather recliner for our living room I think I deserve a mighty good back rubbing for that one

 

[MizzPodd]

Kelly LOL that's what I keep hearing from my female doctor! But she's not concerned about it even though they gave me this paper that specifically said to avoid activities that will cause an orgasm lol I'm so confused

Awww baby's little feet kicking you! My baby likes to stay low (well every pregnancy). I've been having talks with my baby telling them they can stretch out a little more and to float upward a bit lol I feel kicking right near my ribs but its mostly all at the bottom where I feel the most action. Oh and my belly button! Feels like its being pulled from the inside out! Lol how are you feeling by the way?

Amanda you damn well deserve a nice massage among other things

Hey ladies, how'd your glucose results go??

Hello to everyone else!

 

[padbrat]

Hey Mizz... I had a bad result... I have GD. Hospital appt tomorrow about it. PAH!

 

[MizzPodd]

Pad nooooooooooo!!! I hope you can just have a controlled diet without insulin. I know it sucks but I promise it will become like second nature I am really banking on you not needing the insulin... It's annoying!!! I'm not gonna lie, but luckily dd1 was fine and perfect and my blood sugar went right back down to normal. Let me know how they decide your plan of care stay strong sweetie!

 

[manuiti]

Hey Mizz. My results came back ok. Only thing from all the tests I had done was that I'm slightly anaemic so am starting on a top up iron supplement tonight. I'm curious to see if I suddenly get more energy.

Pad - all the best for your appointment tomorrow, I hope it goes well.

 

[ILuvBabies200]

Mizz-Had some contractions today but the Procardia did its job. I am not becoming an isomniac though and cry at everything!

I have had GD since 12 weeks. With DS it was diet controlled. With this one, I am on insulin 3 times a day. I hate it but there is an end in sight!

 

[MizzPodd]

Manu I'm glad to hear you are good with the results! Yay!

Kelly I am so happy you have the medicine to stop those contractions, I pray they hold out until after 28 weeks
Yeah that insulin is a hassle but definitely worth it and yes there is a beautiful end in sight

Happy Valentines Day ladies! Hubby surprised me with gifts before he and dd1 left this morning. He's so sweet! He got our daughter a cute teddy bear and chocolates too

Sorry I have been MIA!! Glad to see everyone is doing well . My 3 year old was in hospital yesterday after eating an extra strength tylenol . Luckily he's okay, very small amount in his blood but we were at the hospital for 6 hour for observation. That was quite a challenge with my two little guys, lol. They were actually very well behaved and kept getting compliments from the doctors and nurses. I now learned MY lesson and keep medication out of his reach (ugh). They are usually in medicine cabinet but I was sick and left them out on my dresser and he apparently knows how to open childproof caps. I'm just glad my little monster is okay....now he won't take off hospital bracelet bc he said he will "get lost," lol.

Hope you all have a great valentines day!!!!!

 

[MizzPodd]

Poor Court! I know that must've been scary!! I'm glad he is okay though very glad!
My daughter can open those childproof caps too and she's only 2. So yeah they aren't effective. I was testing it and let her hold one just to see and she opened it in seconds smh lol

 

[EMTAmanda]

Bless your heart Court!

My glucose screen is the 21st which I'm happy about because hubby got me my favorite chocolates today and I plan to eat them all before then lol!!!

 

[MizzPodd]

Lol me too Amanda! I have mine the 28 th and hubby got me chocolates too do I'm definitely taking advantage! Lol oh and with my favorite cookies too

 

[ILuvBabies200]

Just one tylenol? I'm honestly surprised they kept you. My niece got into some when she was 2 and they were just told to watch her at home. I don't think either of my kids can open those bottles. Of course I haven't really tried. Glad he is okay!

 

[Courtney917]

Thanks everyone. I wasn't sure of it was just one....so they didn't want to take any chances. Plus it was 500mg which could be a toxic dose for his weight (he's a skinny little guy). I'm glad all is okay and all the meds are high up in the cabinets lol. We both learned our lesson from that experience!!!!

Glad everyone is doing well!!! I'll be 30 weeks on Sunday!!!!! I can't believe it!!

On another note, a friend of mine is pregnant with twins and found out that twin b isn't gaining weight like she should ( she's an entire pound behind the other one) so they are talking about inducing her at 28 weeks bc the baby is in danger. The doctors aren't sure if twin b will make it past the first week bc she's only 1lb 3 oz. Please, keep her and her babies in your prayers.

 

[MizzPodd]

Please send many hugs to your friend Court! I've read on here about babies that weight surviving and I hope your friend is one the parents that experience that

 

[Courtney917]

Thanks Mizz

 

[ILuvBabies200]

Oh no Courtney! Are they identical by chance? Because there is this thing called twin-to-twin transfusion where one basically sucks the life out of the other one. That is so sad. 28 weeks is dangerous for both of them. :*(

So my insulin got upped today. Story of my life... Still feeling all of the side effects when I take the Procardia and now all of a sudden I can't sleep from it! Just happy to get another week under my belt.
