Happy mother's day ladies.x

My sweet husband brought me a necklace with two links on it with letters O and D for the twins. So sweet even after how I have been.

TMI ALERT.. Had to got back to maternity Ward again yesterday as nothing still moving and it's been over a week, they tried everything with only little success and were going to keep me in for the night and try again in the morning, I said no I wanted to go home so sent me home with some stuff and still NOTHING lol.. I now have to go back but decided to wait tI'll my specialist appointment tomorrow as they want to give me a fleet enema witch I was told.would most likely put me into labour as it causes contractions. I'm not worried about going into labour now but I honestly just don't want one.

 

[NatalieBelle]

I don't know if I pulled a muscle doing a few squats or what. Right between my inner thigh and groin I am having a horrible cramp when I walk. I set off to start pacing the road so I could try to get LO lower. I ended up heading back to the house because I knew I would end up getting stuck waiting for someone to come find me cause it hurt so bad to walk! D:

 

[Christie2011]

Two - I really hope they can find you some relief soon. I wouldn't want an enema either, but it will be better than leaving you building up with toxins.

I took a 4 mile walk today. I thought about what would happen if I got stuck. But LO seems quite insistent on staying right where he is. I'm in pain right now though from all the chaffing. OWIE! I really hope I"m not waddling like a duck tomorrow at work like I"m doing around the house now.

I've tried half the things on this list so far and LO isn't going anywhere yet.

Love the list you have christie, squatting sounds like a good idea.

Have any of you ladys watched what to expect when expecting? Its a funny movie and one of the ladys sums up pregnancy so wwll on it. I recommend watching it. It dies have some sad parts for a comedy though

 

[Christie2011]

I just watched it last night! I found myself a mixture between two of them and cried for JLo's character.

 

[No Doubt]

Two, hopefully things will get to moving, but if not I guess the enema is really the only way to go. And I'm sure seeing lo won't hurt either, lol.

Nat, ouchies about the muscle...or whatever it is going on. Maybe a rest from operation get Isaac out of there would be good. I know you're so ready at this point. Hopefully not much longer.

Christie I wish we had more say in the matter. Hubbs told me yesterday to hurry up and have this baby, lol. As if I have a choice of when he's gonna make his appearance.

 

[NatalieBelle]

I'm hoping the muscle cramp is a good thing though But I agree, I have tried all of the exercising, I'm tuckered out so I'm just going to try relaxing. I slept an extra 3 hours after breakfast this morning and Isaac has been pretty restful as well. So I guess I should go with the flow haha

 

[TwoRdue]

No doubt my oh trying to convince me to spend the next hour doing squats after I showed him christies list. Ha even without a baby in me I wouls struggle to do that.

 

[No Doubt]

I've waited this entire pregnancy for this. I'm going to get a pedicure! I know, not as exciting as I built it up to be, but I'm accustomed to getting pedicures and I've missed them. Just didn't want to cause the whole massage a nerve and go into labor thing, but now that I'm full term I'm going!

 

[Christie2011]

Congrats on full term status NoDoubt! I've been dying for a pedi, I just don't want to take my son, so I'd need a sitter. I might try to talk my sister into watching him this weekend for a bit. I desperately need one.

My upper back is sore today. I'm not quite sure how I slept last night, but for the first time I've had to use a pillow under my belly as I sleep this weekend. It's just gotten so heavy. Laying on my back actually hurts my insides now too.

I was just down in the cafeteria at work and the lady at the register said she was 3 weeks late with her LO. OMG I don't think I could take this for another 6 weeks! Another 2 and half maybe, but please oh please Leo come out soon so mommy can start feeling normal again!

 

[almosthere]

Nat that is exactly where I have been experiencing my horrible pain that makes me unable to stand at times! I did not pull anything there, just got lots of stretching pains according to my dr. BUT I did pull a muscle at work, I got up really quick forgetting I am not supposed to stand with the almost 10 month old baby in my arms, and I pulled or tore a muscle in my abdomen. Whenever I lift my leg it burns and hurts so bad-totally stinks!

I think it sounds like we are all ready to meet our LO's anyday now please!! hahaha

 

[lilbabywalker]

Is it bad that I don't think I've had any BH yet? Sometimes I'll get a little crampy feeling, but it's barely noticeable, and sometimes I get a strange throbbing pulse up my back that lasts for half a minute or so . . . but neither of them seem like a practice contraction. However, the last two times my midwife was belly mapping she said it felt like I was having a contraction because my belly was so tight! But they've been telling me I have a firm belly the whole time . . . I don't know. I hope my body is ready and not procrastinating on practicing these contractions! Maybe I just can't feel them?

Also, perhaps this is TMI, but I've been getting a thick, snot-like discharge the last several days (yellow to greenish-yellow). Is that the mucus plug?

 

[No Doubt]

I don't think it's weird that you haven't had any bh yet. Honestly I think you have and just haven't noticed them. They say every woman gets then, but some just don't notice them, especially with their first. And all those things you're feeling could be bh...maybe that's just how your body contracts. Not sure about the mucus plug...could be I guess, but it could also be your plug regenerating itself.

 

[Christie2011]

I have to be concentrating or looking for contractions to feel any BHs. And then I still have to verify by feeling all over my belly to make sure it's all tight/hard and not just one area.

Everything I read about the mucus plug says that it's stringy. Not sure if that helps or not as I'm convinced I won't notice when I lose it.

 

[TwoRdue]

Walker some woman dont have any or any signs of labour before they drop.

Cant wait to see how has baby next, not to long left for us all.

Woke up this morning and cant close my right hand due to rally bad swelling, it feels horrid and had high blood pressure yesterday but have my specalist appiiment today so will see if its anything to worry about.

 

[MissAnnabelle]

My doctor said that a lot of babies come on full moons. The next one is on the 25th
When I was there today she said that I could go anytime now and now it is fine for me to go walking again and all the other stuff too. She is out of town this weekend, so I am hoping that I go next weekend Either then of my exact due date because that is dh's birthday

 

[lilbabywalker]

Watch us have a big influx on the 25th and 26th!

 

[MissAnnabelle]

That's what I think will happen She said that people's water will break during wind storms too.

 

[No Doubt]

Wow that interesting. Who knew?

So I was just standing at work talking to someone and holy bh batman! That thing hurt so bad and didn't to away until I sat down. I thought being active was supposed to make then go away. And I totally think it's a lie that they feel like menstrual cramps and only last 30-45 secs. Its feeling more like a stretch to the point of burning and is lasting for a few mins. At least that's what it feels like for me.

A lady at my job commented on how much Virtue has dropped over the weekend. She is right though, he really has. So I'm hoping its not too much longer now. Sitting on the balk as we speak.
