Alexander was the only other name I had on my short list.

LOL I am sure he just moved up a bit but will drop back down. I hope you start feeling better.. not much longer and he will be here! You have that to look forward to.
 
Oh Jo! You're almost at 40 weeks!! Bubba is keeping you in suspense ;)
 
Our next child will be named Hunter (after my father) no matter if we have a boy or a girl (really hoping for a girl though =P) Now to get a little weight off before I can go see a FS here in august- september
 
Nope :nope: im really strugging with this awful rash on my belly now too i think its pupps rash. Its making me miserable. So so itchy.
 
Aw maybe talk to your dr. There is a cream you can use to help with that. :( sorry you are so miserable. Hope he comes soon!
 
I would defo go and see you midwife/doctor to see if they can give you anything to help!

C'mon mate, we want to see a picture of you ;)
 
Having some low dull back pain and a little bit of period like craps. No contractions with it though. Called OB and they told me to take some Tylenon, drink some water, and rest. They said it sound like he was just sitting low and since he is on his side he might be putting pressure on my spine. I am to go in if the pain continues, gets worse, or if any of the typical warning signs present. So far so good. He has back up a little and now I just have the back ache. I see the OB friday at least. He can confirm the position and I will do a little bit of "spinning babies" to help adjust him. Laila did the same thing but she was higher up so the pain was different.



Jo how are you doing mama??
 
I wont be able to sort out a pic for a while anyway i only got bnb on my mobile i cant uplaod pics or see anyone elses unfortunately! We cant afford the internet at home!
So been having some 'symptoms' today.. Been a bit faint a couple of times randomly, bit of a clearout, not loose bms but I have been about 6 times tmi.. , lots and lots of pressure down below (will be very suprised if hes not engaged by now) and i have been cleaning like a crazy lady these past 2 days! Just hope its all amounting to something.. Someone mentioned in thirs tri its the full moon on thurs and thats when iv got my sweep, then its friday the 13th day after! So i bet he'll come then lol.
 
Aww rest up army hope ur ok we must have been typing at the same time! Try and get plenty of rest and fluids x
 
Yay good luck Jo! I bet he comes then too! :) I'll be stalking bnb to find out.

Today I have had a lot of pressure and dull cramps. Feels kinda uti like. I'm also having a bit of yellowish CM which I had before my BFP I'm Janurary. Oh please be a good sign!
 
I am 7dpo and cd27. Tested this morning bfn. Which I expected. Can't let 20 ICs go to waste :)
 
Fingers crossed JM!!!


I am feeling better. He completely changed positions from his laying on his side to laying on his stomach. I have a strong belief that this is what cause all that discomfort yesterday afternoon. I am going to have the OB confirm his position Friday because I am only so good at belly mapping. I can't tell for sure if he is Right Occiput Anterior or Occiput Anterior. ROA is not an ideal position but OA is. I feel like he is more OA now but not sure. Laila was ROP if I remember right and she never dropped because of it. I am hoping he is OA so that I don't have the difficult start to labor this time around. I know its still early but With 10 to 12 weeks to go I am worrying about it. lol
 
So i went for my sweep which she didnt even attempt because baby isnt engaged at all! She said she cant do it if baby isnt engaged because if they accidentally break waters then theres a risk of cord prolapse. She felt my tummy and was like 'hmm u need to come out now baby' i said is he going to be big? She just repeated 'i think he needs to come out now' :nope: hes gonna be huge arrrhhh!

Army im interested in what u say because baby isnt dropping! Im not very good at belly mapping at all but i think his bum is usually up on my right hand side. What position would this make him! If his position is stopping him engaging id love to know so i try to shift him before my next appt on sunday when she will try again and see if i can have a sweep.

OA i when they are straight up and down with their back facing your belly.

Which one of these seems to be his position? Each one has different ways to try and adjust them so once you know or have an ideal you can look up spinning babies to see how to adjust him.

My son decided to drop down to a shoulder transverse last night so I am freaking out a bit. I wish he would stay put and stop moving positions so much. I can't figure out how is sitting today.
 
Army - Glad you're feeling a bit better!

Jo - Sorry he's not engaged! What is he doing in there?! He's just like 'I don't want to get out of bed! 5 more minutes!'

Omigosh, how babies are even remotely comfortable in some of those positions is beyond me! 'Brow Presentation' looks positively painful! Crazy flexible babies!
 
I dont know where he is army i just dont get it /cant do it! I thought loa was supposed to be good? Do u have to press hard? If i put any pressure on him he just wiggles off somewhere else! Hes so active still he wont settle into a position. When i sit on my ball he drops down im sure but every time i lie down onn the bed or mw table he pops straight back out.
I presume there is a risk of prolapse if ur waters go naturally when baby not engaged then? And what if it comes to induction will they still not break them if baby not engaged?!
 
LOA is good and the best position!! :) Any of the Vertex positions are ideal.

The head will be round the butt will be more of a bulge. Then you have to feel kicks and punches. Typically by this stage the jabs are punches and the feet just push or stretch.

Laila never fully engaged and my waters still broke on their own. They checked to ensure the cord was above her. I'm not sure what induction policies are on breaking waters like that though. There's still a good chance he will engage soon and you will go into labor on your own. Laila fully engaged when I went into active labor so its not unheard of at all.
