Mama - congrats on the birth, mama! Baby boy will be fine, don't worry about breathing. Wow, I never thought you'd feel something during the cs. I'm kinda scared off it. But hey glad they are well and you are doing fine also. Sorry to ask tmi q for you but it comes from nursing, have you passed gas yet so you can eat? How long will they have to stay in Nicu for? Hugs to you a job well done. Get your rest, don't move quick.
 
Oh and to those who don't know what twerking is, it's a dance style that your get kinda low and pretty start shaking your butt. It's not even appealing, ugh. YouTube it if you're curious. Even little girls are doing it.
 
It's okay, ask as many questions as you want. I passed gas yesterday was I was using the bed pan, so now I'm on solids. A c-section is no joke, I felt a lot. Maybe if you ask for a lot of meds, you won't feel anything. I figure the babies will be in NICU for up to 2 months. I was reading other preemie boards and most babies born around 31wks are in NICU til about their 37th wk. I think it was a good call to deliver early cause now my girl is gaining more weight than she was in the womb.
 
Mama- CONGRATS!!! Your babies are beautiful! So glad theyre healthy and your little girl (love the name) is doing better :) Im so incredibly excited for you :hugs: Sorry the c-sec was so rough. Wishing you a speedy recover. Cant wait to see more pics

Love-Welcome! Love new ladies, new views and all that good stuff. Great to have you.

Cat- Glad youre back home, it must be soooo nice. Hopefully you can rest there and not have to go back to the hospital.

Want- Our situations are different, but I hear you on the weight thing. Its hard mentally. But youre right. It will be worth it :hugs: If it helps any, I think you look fantastic

Alchemist- Ive had quite a few moments like that where OH said something that just hit me wrong. It happens. Im trying to get better at not going into a hormonal rampage when it does...but, its a work in progress lol. It wouldve bothered me too

Jenn- OMG i had NO idea that was an anal test too. I get mine next week at my 35 week appt Im pretty sure, but no one said anything about it anally, only vaginally! EEEEK! The things we do for our babes. GL! Im sure its not as bad as we're imagining.

AFM- we had our baby shower Saturday. So grateful to have all our major pieces of furniture now, but....OHs family came over and just made a mess of our living room and the babys room. Im exhausted and DO NOT want to clean up after them! AND, we didnt have a fight, but OH wouldnt understand why I didnt want his family to organize the babys room while I took a nap. Ladies, PLEASE tell me Im not alone in this. This is my first baby and I do not want someone else coming in and organizing furniture and putting away clothes and toys. I want to be the one to do that. Is that really that unreasonable?
 
Oh mama congrats! Glad they seem to be doing well :hugs:

Rockin you are not crazy, I didn't even let my hubby help organize stuff for the nursery :haha:
 
Rockin - I wouldn't want anyone to organize my baby's things either. I feel I'm the mother, and I feel that it's something that is special for me to do for my child. However, I think they are just trying to be helpful by lending a hand with it as in their pov could be that they wouldn't want you to over stress yourself in doing it. I think you should politely tell them that it's nice of them but they don't have to do that and that you would like to do that yourself..Hopefully they will understand.
 
Mama- Congrats on the birth of your twins! They are beautiful!


So I had a DR appointment today, and it went pretty well. BP was elevated, but not crazy high. More protein in the pee, but I expected that. Baby girl's heart rate sounded great, and I seem to be measuring right on track. I have to come back in 2 weeks, which is awesome because they had been making me come in every week due to the BP issue. So glad to get a little break from the back and forth. Next appointment is on Oct.7th. Can't believe it is already almost October!
 
Wow congrats mama!! Im shocked the smaller of the 2 is doing better. Im having a possible section nd i must admit the sound of tht terrified me!!

Rockin dw your not alone i dont let anyone sort anything for me it has to b me or i follow behind lmao

theres prob loads more i wanted to say but iv forgot lol!!

AFM- me and oh went to town for a little shopping and ended up getting too much lol!! I only need to get smaller bits now though thank god!! Xx
 
Rockin - I tried to sort through stuff in the nursery 2 weeks ago and I was just so overwhelmed I couldn't handle it. I was calling my mom to see if she could come help me but she was busy. This weekend I went into the room and I had specific ideas of where I wanted things and how I wanted it set up. I don't think it is weird to want to set it up yourself!

Miley - Okay I get she wants to get rid of the little girl image but I can't figure out why she needed teddy bears on stage during her tweeking thing. So gross. I liked that song until I seen the MTV awards and now it makes me ill.

Mama- I am so glad the babies are out and doing well!!!!

I am down just to 49 days. I think it is still surreal. The nursery is really ready at this point but I still am not sure I have the reality of the little girl coming!
 
I think i need to c this mtv video is it on youtube if so wats it called x
 
Wow mama! Congratulations on the birth of your babies. It is so good that your little girl is breathing on her own. What a blessing. And your little boy will be fine, I am sure. It's great that she is gaining weight now. You must be so relieved about that. Hopefully now you can get rest, heal quickly and be with your babies in the NICU until they're ready to come home and you can start your new life with four kids! I do have a question or rather a series of questions though. Will they let you breast feed soon? Or do you have to wait a while? Or you can't at all and will bottle feed? Sorry if that's too personal. I am curious about this.
I wish to you a speedy recovery. Please keep us updated! :hugs:

Rockin, I'd be pissed personally. That is one thing I want to do myself. I'd understand that they were just trying to help and thank them calmly and ask that in the future that you be allowed to do it as you feel it would be more bonding time for you and baby. I REALLY hope OH's mom doesn't try to do that stuff for me when the remodel is finally done. She is the type that just wants to help, but oversteps sometimes.

Love, I'm glad that you get a little break from always having to go in to the doc. Me, I wish that my doctor would test me MORE regularly. I feel like she is kinda letting the ball fall. As for it being almost October. Time is going by fast. BUT I do feel the days are dragging. I'm not sure how that is possible. It's why I added my last ticker. I get more of a punch in the face when I look at it and the days tick down.

Missjenn, I keep getting shocked when you talk about how soon your baby is coming and then I look at your ticker and realize how close you are and then I realize how close we all are. /headspinning Soon, you're going to have your beautiful baby in your arms. This is all getting so exciting and real now that we have/are going to have birth stories.

Edit: Cat, all you have to do is search Miley Cyrus MTV awards and it should pop up. I think.
 
Mama: Congrats girl! So happy you and the babies are safely through that hurdle. I am sure your boy will pick up breathing on his own soon. Are they going to have you pump milk for them or are you doing formula, just curious? If that is too personal sorry. I would be scared shitless of getting a section, but if that's the safest way to bring this little bugger into the world I would do it. Glad you are on the mend, try to get some rest when you can, and good luck to you and your two new beautiful babies!:thumbup:

Rockin: I am just like you, the only dif. is I don't have a nursery yet to set up. The only thing I am not making a big deal of is my sister wants to paint it, and I said she could. I hate painting and so does DH, not to mention by the time we move in I will have like 3-4 weeks left and probably shouldn't be painting at all. She is letting me pick colors, and give input. I will feel better when we finally close on this house and move in so I can make a proper fuss over babies room. :happydance:

Cat: happy you are home at last! DH seems to like me being prego so I get your husbands reaction. :haha:

Todays another slow day. But I got new underwear which is awesome as I apparently don't fit in my old stuff, and I got some new pants the other day so I am in my happy place.
 
Ladies, they gave me the breast pump already to try pumping. I tried yesterday but nothing came out. I'm about to try again, I just wanted to shower first cause I felt funky. If I can't pump, then they want to use donor milk which I have never heard of. But when babies are in NICU, they really want to use breastmilk, so they encourage us to pump. This hosp gave me a Mendela double pump rental for 30 days which is cool cause I really want to give my babies breastmilk than formula.
 
Mama - so your milk came in or they want you to try to pump the colostrum? Also I'm nicu, they will use donor breastmilk if mom can't produce or can't pump. I think that is great. I would donate mine if another mother couldn't and her baby needed it. Keep trying though.

Asf - I'm so tired feeling, I almost called to re schedule dd's appointment today. I really didn't get good sleep at all. But I didn't cancel. I'm gonna get my butt up and go but once I get home, I'm gonna rest. By that time, OH should be awake.

Atm, I'm looking online to attend a belly dancing class for pregnancy. I want to help my Lil guy turn because he seems to mostly be in breech.
 
Noriah i love th pic is it ur cat?? Il look in a bit noseyness

well omg!! My oh went to tescos th other week for me and i asked him to grab a curry sauce and didnt realise until tonight he grabbed vindaloo!! Eek neither of us ate too much but jeeeeezzz i dont need to worry about litlun comin early because im not that lucky lol xx
 
Okay so I am about to feed the girls dinner, then I'm off with them to meet a potential babysitter. She seems okay thus far, but of course I need to meet her and check out her house, and also have the girls meet her and see how they interact together. Will be great to have a reliable sitter if it works out though! Maybe it will help to pass the time a bit more quickly if DH and I are able to have an occasional date night together. Wish me luck!
 
Gd luk hun!!!! We hav my ohs family but we still hav to pay them :/ xx
 
How do you all tell how your baby is sitting? I have no idea how DD is oriented any of the time. And I haven't had DD have any hiccups! I feel like I am missing out.
 
Mama: holy crap girl! Congrats! They are super precious!

Rockin: I'd be pissed. That's my room, I won't even let DH adjust things:)

Cat: just you tube the video of Miley... It's pathetic. Her way of acting out. That's what happens to child stars, they go crazy and don't know how to deal with reality or adulthood. It's sad.

Alchemist: the belly dancing thing sounds fun too! I've been doing the exercises from spinningbabies.com but still he's transverse. It's starting to get me concerned tht I have some weird uterine defect. I need I stop googling. I always tell my patients to never google... Now I'm doing it! Freaks me out!

Cowgirl: it's hard to tell unless they are sitting transverse. But on the spinningbabies site, there a way to map what you feel to figure out te direction of the baby. Map where the kicks are, butt, and head. It's kind of neat. I don't have a problem knowing he's transverse....it's sadly very obvious. He needs to turn!!!
 
Cowgirl I think it is hard. I had no clue until I had my scan a few weeks ago then where I was feeling movements made so much sense.
