So I guess this is my first Nine Month Wait...

[Melsue129]

Welcome newbies!!!!

Wannabe sorry you feel like you are being tricked... Im soo hoping to wait it out until June I always wanted a June baby...

Okay ladies this is gross but I just gotta say -- just went to the ladies room and made a discovery in my undies.. I think its part of my mucus plug... It was like a big snot and light green colored, any of you already momma's ever see your mucus plug... Was it green?? I was looking it up online and people do say its green sometimes... Should I notify my dr or just wait until Friday - my appt... I think I can wait, shouldnt be much of a big deal and it was only a little bit so Im sure Im about to see more of it... yuck but Yay!! at the same time... LOL>..

Hope everyone is having a great day!!

Sounds interesting melsue and promising! I myself am hoping for an on time delivery I have always wanted an august baby so I don't want him to be early! Plus if I go into labour before aug 1st my OB will be away and I'll have someone else for the delivery so here's to hoping he stays put, till his due date anyway.

Welcome newbies and congrats!

 

[wannabeamom]

ooooh mel it sounds promising!! sounds like the plug to me!

ok...confession time for me...i really really cant stop going to the cupboard under the sink and sniffing the flash!!! im such a freak but it smells lush!!

oh mel are you on facebook? if so are you on the due in june group? x

 

[westbrja]

WoooHoooooo!!! Its sunny and almost 90 today.

We went to DD's graduation today and it was so cute. I think I was the only mom crying lmao. I didn't care tho. Now we're just running sum errands and then I'm headed back home to lay in the sun.

I've heard about the heartburn and hair myth, but both my kids came out with enough hair to cover 5 babies heads and I never had any heartburn the entire pregnancy.

Kelly - I know what you mean cuz time is flyin by. I gotta go check ur journal and see ur bump pic.

 

[Kelly9]

wannabe what do you mean the flash smells good? Whats a flash?

 

[dmn1156]

Welcome to the new ladies

wannabe step away from the flash im sure it cant be good lol and facebook is my curse at the moment i cant stay off it so many applications to play on not that i have much time lol

west glad your getting nicer weather and im not sure on the hair theory either i had a lot of heartburn but Lucie did not have a lot of hair just normal lol

melsue the plug can be slightly green but sometimes can be slightly blood stained hope it happens soon for you but i lost my plug with my 2nd then had to be induced 10 days late lol

kelly how you doing flash is a cleaning product they have different fragrences in the flash range but i never notice the difference sometimes lol

Mrs N happy 22 weeks time really does seem to be flying by for you all

[meldmac]

Hi ladies

dmn: to you and your beautiful princess!

Kelly: How are you hon?

wanna: Step away from the flash

Melsue: Oooh sounds promising!! Hope it's a sign things start up soon for you

CSunshine: How are you hon? Hope you are doing well.

How is everyone else? Welcome to the newbies

Sorry ladies I haven't been around much. Been feeling pretty down and not up to doing much of anything but a little better now. Had bad food poisoning last friday and didn't start feeling 100% again until yesterday. Dr. said shouldn't be anything to worry about in regards to the baby. Don't want to ever do that again. I'm off now on mat leave thankfully as I was really struggling at work. Think nesting finally hit me yesterday as I spent almost all day getting stuff ready for the baby. I hope it's a good sign as I never did nest at all with Devin

to you all.

 

[Kelly9]

I am sure it's great sign melmac! I have the nesting instinct now but am on holiday living out of a suitcase so can't really do anything about it now. Will work on in once i am home tomorrow.

So sad to be leaving all our family but it will be nice to be home and all unpacked and the house will be spotless cause thats how we left it. Plus I get to hug and Maul my kitty!!!!!!

 

[Melsue129]

Hey ladies... thanks for the encouraging words but I have heard you can loose your mucus plug weeks before you ever go into labor, at least I know that the sac is pushing on my cervix and that made it loosen up, so that means she must be dropping into the right spot, dont ya think?? I hope I dont go late but really cant help it I guess... Im ready, we are having a 90 degree day today -its way too humid for me, I feel like I cant breathe out there and the hot nights are horrible, nothing like being naked with this huge belly because you just cant stand having any clothing on because it makes you sweat... cant wait to go home for a cool shower.... we have birthing class tonight, our last class finally and we are going to learn about postpartum care and newborn care, so the hubby needs to pay attention for sure...

Wannbe - I am on facebook but I havent joined any groups pretaining to pregnancy... I jsut cant seem to get on their enough, like here when life gets crazy I have a hard time sitting at the computer at home seeing that I do it all day at work..

kelly sorry you vacation is almost over, depressing but think of your lil kitty... lol.. soo cute...

Meld - great to hear from you - not too far to go - just hang in there and take it one day at a time... you have this beautiful baby to look forward to and a huge break from work, good for you!!! I have to work up until I go into labor, fun fun... LOL

Csunshine - glad you are getting good weather too I cant stand the cold and love the summers but summers and pregnancy dont mix, Im gettin that feeling now... Bless you gals that have to be prego all summer...

West - hope you are feeling okay...

DMN - glad to hear you are enjoying your lil Lucie.. she's so cute... I hope your drs appt goes good!!!

Sorry if I forgot anyone... I read thru quick quick... Im just trying to feel any changes in my body to report to everyone this is the fun part, the waiting is almost over...

Oh one thing I forgot to mention - I think Im getting BH contractions... My whole stomach tightens up into this really tight ball and its hard, it takes my breath away not from pain but from the pressure it puts on my lungs when it tihgtens... Does that happen to anyone else?? It really feels like someone is twisting a knot in my stomach to make it hard as a rock.. I feel bad for Liana that has to deal with it on the inside... eeekkkk... So thats all I have to report...

Have a great day!!!

 

[westbrja]

I'm posting this from the labor and delivery ward. I'm sittin on the monitor right now cuz baby wasn't movin around enough today. I did my kick counts for 2 hours and decided to cum on up. Better safe than sorry. I think I'll be heading down for a Biophysical Profile as her heartrate is not reacting. I had a tons of those with DS too so its nuthin too new. They just do an ultrasound to make sure baby is moving, practicing breathing, and sumthin else, I forget.
Melsue - I thought I posted a comment about your plug but my phones been acting up lately. Sorry. I could be a good sign that something is happening. I never seen my plug with DD or DS even tho my water broke with DS. Yay for being naked in 90 degree weather. I stayed that way after I got home yesterday
Dmn - Glad u and Lucie are well.
Meldmac - Nice to hear from you. I wondered how u've been. Yay for early maternity leave, I so wish we could afford it.
Kelly - Boo for end of vacation but yay for hugging the kitty lol.
Sorry for the long post but I'm bored to death lol. I'll jump back on soon and keep you all posted.

 

[westbrja]

All is well, just got home. I'm headed to bed as I'm just exhausted. Thanks girls and goodnite.

 

[wannabeamom]

Hi there mel my bh are more like period type pains rather than my stomach going hard.

West hope you are both ok? My baby was a little on the quiet side yesterday so I got the Doppler out to have a little listen, oh said maybe he's been that hot over the last few days that it's worn him out

had a dream that I gave birth and it was a breeze, he weighed 8 lb 9 1/2 oz it was a lovely dream!!!

Xxx

 

[Melsue129]

wannabe thats a great dream...

West Im glad you made out okay..

I feel like the last few weeks she has decreased in movements alot but I soooo think its becuase she is all cramped in my stomach, there is no where to go, its like you feel my stomach and all you feel is a lil person under the skin its wild... I worry when she doesn move around then I try to eat or drink and even poke her and nudge her and she ends up moving around.. I feel so tired today and work has me in a tizzy, Im really done with working now... I just want to go home and go to bed, I was up 3 times last night just to pee and thats a record for me.. so she must be getting lower and really be sitting on my bladder...

Hope everyone is doing okay....

 

[westbrja]

She's already head down. I'd be really excited if I were having a vaginal delivery, but since they will be pulling her out butt first I guess it's not as much of a big deal lol.

Melsue & Wannabe - Are your babies head down?

Kelly - When do we move up a ticker box? Oh and I forgot I checked out your 30 week bump pic and Whoa Boobies lmao. You look super seductive with that new hair. Lovin it!!

 

[wannabeamom]

West yeah he's head down and a fortnight ago was 3/5 engaged got midwife again tomorrow so will see if he has moved down anymore!! So excited now can't wait to meet him!!! When's your section booked for? X

 

[Melsue129]

West yes.. Her head is down and has been since my 32nd week.. she's pointing the right way now just waiting for her to continue to drop some more... I have an appt with a nurse practioner tomorrow and then next week is my last appt before my due date on Saturday....

wannabe fill us in on what happens tomorrow with the midwife...!!! exciting exciting...

 

[Kelly9]

Wow lots of talk.

West yes my boobies are big! Thanks about the hair, I like it but can't wait to make it blonder.

Lots of exciting things happening with you melsue and wannabe!

I am home with the DH and the kitty, got to hug and cuddle him lots. Baby was kicking my cervix the entire plane ride from the inside out obviously but it hurt so bad I thought for sure if he kept it up that he would pop his waters, well he's kept it up and nothing has popped which is good only it hurts darnit! He is making me cranky!

I have a scan sat, my boy's been head down since like 12 weeks but I think he might have changed position a little, will know for sure soon. Midterm monday and working the saturday before, busy busy me.

Oh and I unpacked all the wonderful things from my baby shower back home and our boys closet it getting nicely full!

 

[wannabeamom]

Yay for the safe journey home Kelly and for getting cuddles with your cat!!

Will keep you upto date on what midwife says!

A not so exciting thing has happened though..... I have a big fat very very painful pile appear on my bum do you know if it is safe to use any creams or stuff during pregnancy or should I wait till after? Or I suppose I could ask the midwife later? Either way it is really sore

hope everyone is very well xxx
