Summer Sensations! (due May/June 2013)

[almosthere]

two-I am so sorry to hear you are going through this-best of luck-I hope it works! BIG HUGS

Two - wow scary. I hope you LO makes it as long as he needs to.

I'm feeling very bloated today. Probably should make a better effort to drink more water.

 

[almosthere]

You bloat if you haven't drank enough water? I am the opposite-I bloat if I drank enough water LOL. And OMGSH baby hurt mommy today, 2 intense kicks whilst standing after getting off the couch-I yelled ouch out loud! It was very low below my baby bump like right above the right side of my hoohaw-I would like cuter kicks instead of painful ones please!

Hay ladies. Well today has been a long day, the surgeon decided she wanted to do a scan her self as they only do half a dozen of these surgerys a year and at almost 19 weeks it comes with more risk and low and behold my cervix is now 3.5 cm?? With slight funneling so now been sent hope to do another scan next week. They won't let the sonographer do anymore of my scans and the specialist has to be called to do it every time I'm there.. my OH has been stresses out as we don't no how to feel about this and who is right and who is not.. fingers crossed my scan next week comes back with great news

 

[No Doubt]

Two hold onto to hope hun! Hopefully this is all working like it should and your body is correcting itself. Better to do things naturally than to have procedures done when you know there is risk of something happening. I'm sure you could go further than 26 weeks without having a procedure than if you did. Praying for you hun!

AFM I ended up in the emergency room last night cause I was having pain and pressure all day that only got worse from my vaginal wall up the side of my body. It was only on the right side of my body though. They did a bunch of bw and labs and everything was fine, they think it might be round ligament syndrome. I don't think that's what it is though. The pain radiates from my hip. I think this is that relaxin making everything ready for baby to come and my hips are spreading. Its excruciating and I can't move. I'm glad everything is ok with Thumper though, but I have a feeling I will be in bed the next few days. I'm going to try to get in with my doctor today and discuss other possibilities and options that help cause I can't even get out bed and all I can have is Tylenol which does nothing.

Two - You must be feeling so confused right now. I'm glad the specialist decided to check things out for herself before going ahead with the procedure. Fx'd for more good news next week.

NoDoubt - ouch, sounds painful. Sorry to hear you had to go to ER but very glad all is well with lo. I thought 2nd tri was supposed to be the easy part?! Hope you feel better soon!

Almost - you must have a little soccer player in there, lol! Looking forward to seeing if your early prediction was right!

Afm, no spotting during the night so

 

[TwoRdue]

Thanks again, it's great to be able to have this site to help with your problems and anxiety and also get great support.xx

No doubt - sorry that you are in so much pain and hope that you start to feel better soon. I have had some painful round ligament pain as of late and that has not been to nice to.. I hope your doc can help with it.

Getting that is great that the spotting has stopped and I hope that it stays away for good.x

 

[almosthere]

getting-yay for no spotting!!!

twordue-praying for you and LO!

nodoubt-oh no, sorry for your scare!!!

 

[GettingBroody]

Same spotting again today Dr told me as long as it stays brown it should be fine and to "keep an eye on it." Not sure what I should be doing...

 

[lilbabywalker]

My little guy just did a bounce in there. So cool . . .

I myself wouldn't mind some thoughts and prayers. My brother-in-law went missing on New Year's Eve at a state park and after several days of being with the family and searching, we're pretty sure it's a suicide. Just waiting now for the call that they found his body. It's been a really hard week, but luckily my little guy is a trooper and he seems to be doing better than I am.

 

[No Doubt]

So sorry to hear that walker. I will be praying for your family.

Getting, hopefully the spotting goes away for good. I will be praying everything is fine with you and the lo.

 

[MissAnnabelle]

Broody - sounds like the same problem I was having - you really need to stay off of your feet as much as possible.

Thinking of you two...

Walker *hugs*

 

[almosthere]

Oh walker I am so sorry this must be extremely devastating I hope he turns up alive and well

 

[snowflakes120]

So much news on here today. I don't even know where to start.

Walker - I am so very sorry that your BIL is missing. I will keep him and your family in my thoughts and prayers. You look great - again, super jealous of your bump! You are too cute!

Broody - Have you guys BD'd recently? I know some girls have light spotting after. I hope it goes away soon for you. I too thought that 2nd tri was supposed to the "fun" trimester seems like all of us have been some sort of issue more so lately than in the beginning.

Two - Very odd about getting 2 different varying numbers. I'd be tempted to get another opinion at another facility for piece of mind.

No Doubt - Sorry about all the pain you are having. Hope you are feeling better today with some rest and relaxation. The nursery looks awesome - great sayings! I have no clue what I am going to put on the wall yet!

Almost - Sounds like you have future soccer player in there! I love the big kicks that kinda throw you totally off guard. I find them exciting! I too bloat like crazy (usually at night) when I drink all the water. Can't wait for gender scan for you!!

Christie - LOVE the nursery! Beautiful colors! You did a great job!

Not much going on here. I booked my flight to go home to NY for my Baby Shower. It will be March 9. Hubby started painting the walls for the nursery. Looking good so far. Going to start the Baby Registry on Jan. 19th at the store so I am looking forward to that. Our hospital tour of Maternity is next week on Jan. 17th - can't wait to get more info on that and check it out!

 

[TwoRdue]

Walk I am so sorry you and your family are going through this and hope it does end with good news.

Getting sorry you are spotting again and hope it goes away for good.

Snowflake that is a good idea to get second opinion as I got four different lengths, one been 5mm, 27mm, 18mm and now 35mm but I was also shown on my scan that there was over 1cm gap in my cervix when there shouldn't be and that I would be lucky to make 22 weeks. It just does not make sence to me.

 

[almosthere]

hehe I hope we have a little soccer player! Both DH and I played and love soccer-we already have 2 dif. size brazilian soccer jerserys-dh does cable for businesses and a brazilian store owner he installed cable for gave us a cute jersery shirt and shorts prob for a one or 2 year old-havent looked at it in detail yet lol.

gender scan tomorrow ooooomgsh!

 

[lilbabywalker]

Oh gosh am I tired today . . .

 

[Christie2011]

Almost, I'm dying over here to hear how your apt went. When is it? Mine is tomorrow but I have to wait all the way until 2pm I can't wait to see my little guy again and hopefully hear how well he is developing.

I was reading last night in bed and had my book resting on my belly and twice LO kicked so hard (not really hard at all though) that my book bounced. I found it funny and cute. He has his active moments, but he's not constantly kicking. I feel more like he's constantly stretching though like he's trying to tell me he needs more room already.

 

[almosthere]

Thanks for asking! The scan went wonderfully all is well with HIM! we are over the moon with happiness and excitement!

 

[TwoRdue]

Yay almost that is great.. welcome to team blue..
