*~* May 2013 - Spring Babies*~* 117 Jelly Babies - 22 Boy's & 19 Girl's - 5 Babies :D

Prepping my cloth diapers today. My laundry room is so tiny :( I have nowhere to hang dry them... some say tumble dry low/medium so I've been doing that but I noticed the AIO don't dry evenly... so I had to flip them inside out and put them on another round of drying. I think it's going to take a while to get my routine down. I am surprised how long they take to wash too, I did a custom cycle on my washing machine based off wash directions and it takes a little over 2 hours, wow! I am going to have to establish a whole day for diapers only. I hate running the washer and dryer so long/frequently! but it's supposed to be energy friendly...
 
lucky you have a washer/dryer in your house! we live in an apartment in Chicago, and we share a laundry room. another reason why i'll be using disposables!

maternity leave starts on Monday....only 4 more days of work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Is anyone else having awful groin pain? I go on Friday for my first pelvic and am hoping theres some progress! Good luck ladies
 
My pelvis has felt like it is literally going to crack in half for two or so weeks now. Like so painful I cry when I hsve to r oll over in bed and I can barely walk. So much pressure too. Went to the dr last thursday sure I was at least a little dialated....nothing. not a thing. :/ hopefully u have better luck.
 
Just got back from the dr gained 17 lbs with 3 weeks to go not bad she thinks he'll be a big baby cause the way he's sticking out I think he's gonna have long legs like my son and myself and he's running out of room haha guess well see who's right soon. She said he's really really low and she can't move his head he may come early but I don't think so.
 
Kris - YES!!! Went to midwife a week ago and was almost 2 cm dilated. Have had this pain since around 28 weeks while lying in bed / turning over but lately it's been 10x worse and is not only when I'm in bed but also when I'm out of bed, walking about. Also, it used to be mostly in the front of my pubic bone and now it's actually hurting my cervix - or sometimes both areas simultaneously. Fun stuff!!
 
So excited for babee! I can't believe all the LO's are starting to arrive! This is just great.
I'm so uncomfortable - I cannot wait for it to be my turn. I just wish I had an idea of when.
 
Good luck Babee!

Jtink - hope you get a date or the answers you need!

Have to say until just over a week ago I was totally okay with waiting the last 4 weeks but now my backs really bad I'm not so patient! Obviously I can do it and I still expect to go to 41 weeks but my goodness I'm in pain! Had a mw appointment and been told to expect 7.5-8 pounds from the size of my bump and from her feel. This is big for me!!

It will be nice to start seeing announcements on here anyway - gives us something to focus on rather than the uncomfortableness and pain!!
 
I'm sorry you're in so much pain Hann. I am too. LAst night I got up to pee, and when I got up to get off, I had excruciating pain all below my bump through my crotch. I thought maybe my plug was going to fall out or some thing. It was horrendous. I just had to sit there for 5 mins or so til I could pull myself up with my arms rather than my legs. :(
 
I feel your pain girls Dd woke for her night feed last night and I was like a beached whale trying to get out of bed! Lucky hubby got up to save me waddling!

Now I've hit term I've suddenly got impatient for bubs to arrive
 
Ive had groin pain for weeks now, to the point where I can't turn over in bed without a mission! Lol jenson is a right little monkey though and still wasnt engaged last Thursday!

Ive got my 38 weeks appointment on Thursday though so we will see if there's any progress! X
 
Oh sass that doesn't sound nice - had it gone now?
I'm going to pop in to the local oesteopath soon and see if an appointment with him can help in addition to the physio. Got to be worth a try!!
 
It was only really bad for about 5 minutes. Then I made my way to bed and it hurt a bit less, then I passed out. I just have no clue what it was. It didn't hurt or feel tight on top of my bump at all.
Good luck at the osteo today Hann!
 
Ugh I'm so over this sciatic pain it makes my left leg go numb she wanted me to do physio months ago but I didn't have the time for that between my toddler and my cookie business. I see the obstetrician doing my c section today so well secure the date I may see if I can have him a few days earlier but probably not by the sounds of her schedule.
 
Oesteopath was closed so I went down there for nothing, very annoying!

Hope that pain stays away Sass!

Pink - good luck it's getting the date!
 
thanks I mean really the 8th isnt the end of the world I am just over being so uncomfortable and in pain I have had so much go wrong in the pregnancy im over it lol
 
Pink I felt like that with my daughter, I had a horrible pregnancy! Hope you deliver soon and it is a smooth delivery
 
My sons pregnancy was a breeze this pregnancy has been not sleeping, gallbladder attack, diabetes, sciatic pain the list goes on ugh only thing that went wrong with him was labor all day leading to a c section when he went into distress.
 
talked to the terrible doctor today. thank goodness i'm going in today to see a different doc, because I think I hate this doctor.

she basically scared the shit out of me, and made it seem as if there are really no good options to have my baby. she said that they're "willing" to let me try and go naturally, but that because I have an "abnormally large baby," I will 100% sure tear, and it will be a very bad tear that will need a specialist to repair. um, okay.

BUT, then she says that if I want more children, I should try to go naturally. okay.....are you saying that if I have a C-section to avoid a massive, awful tear that I can only have one baby?

neither options sounds good to me. I wasn't afraid of labor or C-section before, and now i'm absolutely terrified of both.
