Still waiting to O after chemical 2 weeks ago..anyone else? :0(

[lch28]

thanks ladies!! cant wait till you have your little guys !

 

[moter98]

i am getting so excited to meet my little guy....i have butterflies!

 

[lch28]

Yay ! And you are full term tomorrow !! Any day now. How many weeks were u when ds was born ??

 

[moter98]

I was 39+3 with ds. Have my 37 week appt on Tuesday and hoping dr says I am dilated and effaced.

 

[lch28]

I hope so too !!!

 

[moter98]

Couldn't be more ready this time....dh isn't though. He wants a couple more weeks he said. Bet he wouldn't if he were the pregnant one

 

[lch28]

lol! i was thinking how i was so ready and how my induction was soo far away and then my water broke and i was like OMG IM NOT READY!

 

[moter98]

haha, really? i am just so uncomfortable and exhausted i want him out already. will be so nice to have my body back and recover and be able to do things with ds#1 again. poor kid, all i do is sit around most of the day. i can't chase him around or pick him up....i'm boring mommy right now.

 

[lch28]

aww!! i think i was just a bit panicked, lol.. im very happy he is here now though. he is a big boy for 36 weeks. i am just starting to move around better, the c section had me pretty sore for a few days. By the way, me and FOB have decided to give it another go. I am happy with my decision but hoping that i dont regret this. So far he has been absolutely wonderful. We are doing couples counseling twice a month (Starting next month lol)

 

[moter98]

yeah, i might panic too! how was the section? i am so scared of possibly having to do that, though dr says i have a high chance of going natural. just the thought of being cut open while awake freaks me out.
congrats ich. hope it all works out!

 

[lch28]

tbh it was fine. i was nervous about it too. i didnt feel any pain, but i did feel pressure and them like touching me. it was just about the oddest sensation in the world when they pulled him out! but never any pain. just weirdness! haha. i even looked at johan and i was like "THIS IS SO WEIRD!!!!!!!!!!"

 

[moter98]

Oh ok. I've always thought I just might totally freak out if I had to do that and they'd have to knock me out lol. Not my preferred method of baby extraction, ha!

 

[moter98]

i'm a watermelon! officially full term today...and totally ready whenever baby is.
been getting menstrual like cramps off and on all week. hope that means progress. i need dr to tell me tomorrow that i am more dilated and/or effaced than last week.

 

[lch28]

were u dilated last week?? hope u made progress hun!!

 

[moter98]

Only a fingertip, but cervix still hard. Dr said that is normal for a second pregnancy so chances are I've always been a fingertip dilated.

 

[lch28]

well, happy 37 weeks! hope your little man makes his arrival very soon!

 

[Sweetz33]

Yay moter! Sooo close! I have OB appt today. I'm dialted as of last Thursday 1 1/2cm, cervix is soft. They put me on turbutaline shot. Today I find out if dilated more and if they are going to continue the shots. I hope not bc they hurt and give me bad anxiety.

Ich how is our lil man doing?

 

[moter98]

Thanks ich.

Lucky Sweetz lol, though I know you want baby to wait a bit yet.

 

[lch28]

hes doing great!! he sleeps so much lol! i wake him up to eat usually. hell sleep through a diaper change and it takes a good while to get him to be alert enough to eat. then we get a few minutes of him opening his big eyes and then hes asleep again! hes such a joy and im just so in love with him. unfortunately it seems breast feeding isnt working for us. he doesnt latch on properly, or at all. he gets so mad and tired and i feel awful.

 

[moter98]

oh, he sounds like a perfect baby! hope mine does the same.
don't feel bad about bf not working, it doesn't work for everyone and you have tried! it didn't work for me with ds and he is just fine....in fact, he is hardly ever sick.
