I'm sorry you are feeling sick Sander! That would be awesome if your husband doesn't need his gallbladder out and it was just a virus. Does he still have to see a doctor to confirm whether it was actually his gallbladder or not?

I think the hospital sent his scan to a specialist so I’d expect them to call, but it’s been a full week so far and we haven’t heard anything. I would assume even if he has an issue it’s not that urgent otherwise surely they would have called by now :shock:

I hope its not urgent. When I threw a gallstone during my last labor I was vomiting and in pain while on the post partum unit and all they said is it's gas, gave me a gas pill and head pack. I had to get regular blood work done at my doctor and that's when they discovered my high liver enzymes. My doctor sent me for the ultrasound and confirmed gallstones. It was still took the surgeon weeks to schedule a consult, and when they did schedule one it was still over a month and a half away. I ended going to the ER and they were able to schedule a sooner consult. I had my gallbladder out 3 months after I gave birth ( showed symptoms) the day of the surgery was my original consult day. I say all the this because it makes me question how quickly doctors gets back to you even in emergent situations. I was in pain and sick that whole time waiting.
 
I think my baby dropped yesterday. I can definitely breathe better and my bump is not as high and doesn't stick out as far. Now when I sit down the top of my bump is more squishy. I had told my husband I don't feel like I look pregnant or at least not as far along. This is weird for me because in my other 3 pregnancies the babies didn't drop until I was at induced.
 
Not sure if this is classed as a potty shot or not... its the femur measurement.

Just for fun..... what are your guesses (if its even possible to guess from this pic)

I've done an arrow to the bit that *I think* may be the potty area (but it could be something else :haha:)

I'm not quite sure but if I had to guess I would say girl?
 
Oh I’m so bad at reading scans that aren’t clear potty shots Mrs :haha: Did we make a guess for you before based on your other scans/theories?

I just got back from L&D - I suddenly started having painful contractions when we were at our meeting this morning. I told DH we had to go and as soon as I got to the car I started throwing up. I had super bad contraction pain and he dropped me at the hospital while he took the kids back home. They got me on an nst and I was contracting every 2 minutes for a few hours - they gave me a bunch of fluids but couldn’t slow them, so they ended up giving me a narcotic. I told them I wasn’t having a lot of pain, but they said they were using it as a treatment for the contractions as it binds to the uterus a certain way to stop contractions (I dunno, lol). So that slowed them down enough for them to send me home. They said my cervix is slightly open and very soft - but the doctor seemed to think that could be just how it is from having had a baby before. Anyways, they basically said just to drink lots of water and stay in bed and hope that they don’t come back :wacko:

I hope the bed rest and water help! So do s that mean you are in bed rest for the duration of the pregnancy?

Oh wow, sounds scary!!! Hope you are ok. Has everything settled down? When will you next be seen by your midwife/ob?

I don’t know they just kinda sent me on my way and didn’t give me any instructions other than ‘come back if it starts again’ :wacko: DH is a bit freaked so he’s helping with the boys so I can stay off my feet more. I had more spotting this morning but I’m guessing that could have been from the cervical checks.

Everything seems to have settled ok and baby is moving lots so I assume everything is fine - just gonna try and stay vigilant I guess and call if I need to. I don’t see the midwife again until next Monday, so hoping everything stays ok until then!

Yoshi your bump looks great!

How is everyone else doing?
 
I keep getting this lightheaded feeling and feel so tired all the time. I wondered if I might be anaemic but routine bloods last week all in normal range apparently. My BP tends to run low so wonder if its that :shrug:
 
@Sander

that must of been scary. If u remember with Tommy I had to keep going in because I kept having contractions from 33+6 weeks. It was predominal labour and happened again at 35 and 36 weeks. The slight dilation cud be down that u have had 3 babies in a short space of time and now this one. I was told it’s always slightly open after ure first. I hope These contractions don’t return and u make it to ure c section. good luck love.
 
I have been so exhausted lately I just want to nap. I'm still trying to get the last few things done. My induction date is 2 weeks from today.

Yes I do remember that! They eventually induced you because of the liver condition right? Did they tell you to just keep coming in every time for the contractions or were you supposed to ride them out at home? I’ll ask my midwife too.

Crazy - I can’t believe you’re 37 weeks already!

Mrs - I have really low blood pressure all the time too, it can make me feel dizzy. I find getting up and down slowly helps xx
 
Had my bloody show today :shock: I had a bunch of period cramping after but it all calmed down. I did call the midwife just to update her - she basically told me what I thought she would, that it could mean the baby will come, or I could go all the way to May 19.

I tried to ask like in her experience how does this normally go for people, but she pretty much said it’s really different for everyone so there’s no way to know. Thankfully she said if baby wants to come she’s close enough to full term that she should be fine even if she’s born very soon.

Anyways, trying to stay off my feet - guess that’s all I can do :shrug: I didn’t go through this with my boys. With them I had no preterm labour signs, I went to 38/39 weeks and my water broke both times. So this is a new experience and I’m not used to watching for labour signs. I am hoping she’ll stay put just because we have so much we want to do around the house before she comes, but I am starting to wonder if I’ll make it to 39 weeks with all this commotion going on in my body :wacko:

Oh wow Sander!! Your body seems to be gearing up to delivering your little lady slightly early. Try and rest up like you say, but I guess if she makes her mind up she's coming there's not a great deal you can do. Fingers crossed she stays put a little longer for you so you can get the house a bit more ready. Hope you are ok.
So exciting xx
