Well after seeing my doctor today my blood pressure was still climbing. He doubled my dose of blood pressure meds but said if it keeps going up I'll end up being induced sooner. But the latest he will let me go is January 24th, so that is when my induction is scheduled.

 

[AngelaALA]

God 24th is not dar away at all 2 wks how do you feel about that xx

 

[krissie328]

God 24th is not far away at all 2 wks how do you feel about that xx

No it is not!! I went in to tell my boss my last day would be the 19th and he was like that is only 10 days away. I hadn't realized that until he said it.

I think part of me hasn't accepted she is going to be here in two weeks. It just seems so surreal. But then the other part of me is so excited and relieved that she will finally be here. This pregnancy was rough and I look forward to holding her and knowing she is safe.

I do feel ready at least for her to be here. Her nursery is done, the carseat is installed, bags are all packed. So really it just seems we are waiting on her. My house could be a little cleaner but to be honest I am just too exhausted to deal with it.

Krissie I hope the birth goes well and I cant wait to see a pic of her you get to see your beautiful daughter after all this time its amazing she will be here before you know it xx I feel like Ive got so long to wait till I get that chance this first tri is dragging so much for me 30th still feels so far away for my next scan xx

 

[krissie328]

Angela- that was how my pregnancy with my son was. It dragged on for sure. Everything was scary and I never felt like he was going to be born. To be honest the last month was longer than first tri!

This pregnancy has been the exact opposite. It has flown by for sure.

Hopefully the 30th is here before you know it and you get to see your little bean again.

 

[krissie328]

Thinking of you today Red. I hope your scan goes well and you are all set to trigger.

 

[RedRose19]

I'd a weird experience and I feel stressed..
So today my follies were 10mm Nd nearly 13 so they grew but slowly.
She wants me to trigger tomorrow night so that's 36 hours away she reckons the leading follicle will grow by 3 mm then so they will be 13 and 16, trigger will get them to grow another 2mm and trigger lh for ovulationed for 36 to 48 hours after trigger and in that time they will grow another 1 to 2mm a day... But it just seems so soon to trigger? Too early? It's stressing me out. I think I might wait til the Friday morning (extra 12 hours full two days after today's scan) to trigger I don't see the rush

 

[AngelaALA]

Red goodluck hun, Im sure the drs know what theyre doing but if you want to leave trigger a little longer thats your choice hun either way I really hope it works for you xx

 

[dogmommy]

Wow krissie two weeks away! So exciting. It will be so nice to have her in your arms.

Red good luck! That's a hard decision. I can't remember what size they had me trigger.

Angela unfortunately my pregnancy draggggged but I don't think I would have it any other way. I never thought we would ever make it this far so I'm glad even though I want to be done now and meet her!

 

[krissie328]

Good luck Red. I am sure either decision will be okay.

Dogmommy- not too long for you either. She will be here before you know it. The last few weeks of my son's pregnancy were good.

12 more days! I'm so relieved and excited. I have now developed some intense swelling. But no protein in my urine and my labs come back normal so they don't think its preeclampsia. I have my 4th appt this week at the ob office. I swear they should just give me a bed. I have a growth scan on Tuesday. If my bp is okay that day I feel confident I will make it to my induction. If it is high I am sure they will admit me, probably induce as I will be 36 weeks.

 

[AngelaALA]

Krissie I hope it all goes well but what ever happens Im sure your ready for babies arrival I camt wait to see pics of her xx

 

[AngelaALA]

Hey everyone how are you all doing xx

 

[RedRose19]

Fine here, 3 dpo crampy and bloated every day since! Why does time go so slow! I'm testing out the trigger so I can test asap

 

[krissie328]

My growth scan went good today. Baby is measuring about seven pounds and everything looked healthy. The only problem is she is sitting diagonally instead of head down. So basically the doctor told me if she isn't head down by next Wednesday then they will prep me for a C-section. She has been laying diagonal for weeks now, so I feel a little frustrated. The thought of a C-section is pretty scary so I'm trying to process that and prepare for that outcome.

 

[AngelaALA]

Red thats so exciting yet nerve wracking at the same time I have absolutely everything crossed for you xx

Krissie thats great news though that she's healthy and all appears good I know quite a few people who had C sections said it was perfectly dine plus less stress on you and baby and recovery can be quicker too xx

 

[krissie328]

Thanks Angela. I have read a lot of positive stories for elective c sections. I feel like if that is the outcome then it will be okay. Plus I really wouldn't argue with two extra weeks paid. (We get 6 for vaginal and 8 c section.)

Oh thats a hard one! Honestly, if the deals are super good I would jump on it. Baby stuff is ao expensive, especially when starting from nothing.
