Mandaa how ever did your ultrasound appt go? I've been thinking about you and wondering.
 
I would like to be added to the nov group I'm due nov 15 with a little girl her name will b Joanna Jean
 
Work has been so busy for me lately, I am not keeping up here! My back pain and carpal tunnel swolle tingly hands have been worse, but I keep so busy at work I barely notice until I get home at night. My DH finished painting the stencil in the nursery and is doing so great putting together the furniture at night after work. It's all getting closer! I have also probably put on more weight lately, I think I am up 24 pounds total. And a bit over 8 weeks to go!
 
That is awesome!! I see you are a few days ahead of me, I go in to see specialist and have a scan on Monday I wonder what she'll weigh. She was estimated to weigh 3 pounds 11 ounces two weeks ago, give or take a couple days, so she must be at least 4 pounds now. My son was born at 35 weeks, I was induced due to pre e, but he weighed only 4 pounds 11 oz at birth. Baby sites say they gain about a half pound a week right now, so he must have had growth restriction. If Macie were born at 35 weeks (god forbid) that is only 3 weeks from now, scary.
 
Ohhh I bet she'll be at least 4 1/2 lbs then! It's crazy to be thinking how these babies from this group are going to start being born in the next month or so!
 
I ordered my breast pump already! Cant wait for it to be delivered already, things feel more real now.
 
C section booked for October 30, unless I can get her to come out sooner as I can't go to 40 wks and they won't induce with history of abruption so my only chance of a vbac is if I go before 39 wks naturally!

Last day of work tomorrow!
 
I have a little November sparkler :), due on the 22nd November. First baby, keeping it a surprise so don't know sex of the baby

Eeekkk!!! That's soooo sooon!!
 
Jalanis are you going to use it before you give birth? I've been looking up antenatal pumping and a few articles say some recommend it for people like me with GD as sometimes their babies are born with low blood sugar and have to be supplemented with formula or a glucose drip at birth, unless you have a supply of colostrum built up. I also read that some women with GD have delayed lactogenesis (milk doesn't come in as quickly as some). I got my pump a long time ago and was bored so I tried it not expecting anything to come out and was surprised when I got about 3 to 4 mls. I didn't get any contractions or anything. I really don't think I'll go into labor until my body is ready. What do you ladies think?
 
Just been to my 34 week midwife appointment, she's now 3/5 engaged but I have low blood pressure which is making me feel icky and dizzy!
 
My insurance company won't let me order my free pump until 30 days before my due date since it can be used by some to induce labor - so there must be some truth to it working? But who knows!
 
Mandaa when I had my scan at 28 weeks baby was measuring almost 1 week and 5 days ahead or so.... so I got booked for one next Tuesday and see if he slowed down or still big! No diabetes at all or anything, me and my brothers were big. At 28 weekz baby's weigh was 1kg 300gr. Everything is been messy with my midwife...
 
Just got a call that my free madela breast pump has shipped. I ordered it like a month ago but they said they don't ship until 30 days before due date which is Sunday for me. Can't believe I only have 1 month left!!
 
Mine won't ship until 30 days out either...interesting!

Geralyn, can't believe you have a month left! How exciting...I'm so not ready for that, LOL!

No, im gonna use it after birth but i already leak colostrum quick, my nips are sensitive and leak quick especially at night when i squish them when im asleep.
 
My insurance let me order once i was 32 weeks because you never know ppl can deliver earlier than due date and you may need pump earlier than expected. I ordered it on yummymummy store and its already processing, i should be receiving it within the following week.
