you can stand your ground. for my next pregnancy, i will not get induced. It sucked and took over 24 hours. I have high bp when i go to the dr always, but as a precaution they made me do what you are.
They will try and scare you but as long as you are being monitored, you should be fine to go into labor naturally.

hey ladies, im here just been a little crazy...i have little avocados now. I just started feeling little flutters...cant wait to really feel them move

 

[jmandrews]

Thanks hun!

She's just beautiful jm. It is truly wonderful when they start smiling at you. They so only have eyes for their parents too! Smile more at you than anyone else - makes us so special

Thank you! Love your new pic! he is precious! I can not wait for Everlee to start smiling and giggling! I am so excited for that stage. Everlee did not like having her picture taken at all. I am surprised any good ones came out of her newborn session. I work for the photographer who did hers. We tried 3 days in a row. It was horrible. She did not want to do any of the poses i wanted. haha oh well i am happy with how they turned out.

 

[Wilsey]

Don't worry, we had exactly the same thing! They also pee at the most inopportune times!! You definitely got some good ones, such a little sweetie.

Can't believe she is already over a month old. That has flown by!

 

[skeet9924]

welcome back haj!! Do you have an updated bump pic?? So exciting that you are feeling flutters!! I cant wait to feel mine!!

 

[Mrs W 11]

Glad you are well haj!!

Freya didn't want to do any of the poses at her newborn shoot either!! It was hard.,plus she pooed twice, weed and was sick bless her!!

 

[haj624]

This is my 15 week bump

 

[armywife11]

welcome back haj!! Do you have an updated bump pic?? So exciting that you are feeling flutters!! I cant wait to feel mine!!

Haj its exciting isn't it! I won't forget that moment!

Skeet your getting close. Not to much longer!!



Now if I can just talk this baby into coming soon. Mommy's hips and back can't handle this much longer. Bed rest is making me sore.

 

[skeet9924]

Oh Haj!! I love your bump!!!

I had horrible dreams last night that I started bleeding I hate those dreams

 

[armywife11]

Lots of strong braxton hicks and period cramps yesterday. Also my dog and cat were really into me all day sniffing and pestering me. Not feeling well this morning pinched nerves and such from baby but the cramps are gone. :/

Maybe they will come back once I eat.


Oh also discussed with family and hubs that if I don't have prec. or tox. I will probably decline the induction unless they can give me a good reason to have it. Again we will address it when/if we get to that point. Hoping we don't get to that point.

 

[skeet9924]

Good luck army!! Hopefully your lo comes naturally for you

 

[armywife11]

My NST and BP were great today! All tests came back normal. Waiting on one test now. Was told hypertension alone would not warrant an induction unless I wanted it so I am hopefully in the clear.

Thursday I will have another NST and ultrasound so fingers crossed they are good. As well as my 25 hour urine test I turned in today. No contractions today but cramps and looooots of pressure. I actually peed myself last night and thought it was my waters because I had no control of it. I got up to pee and didn't make it Baby is just in a weird spot now but now I know to go right away that I can no longer wait. lol

 

[josephine3]

Wow skeet ur 11 weeks and haj ur 16?! Thats mental! Is it going fast for u? Haj i love ur bump pics i wish id been that organised to do one each week..
Armywife i say try to relax, i kno its hard but u wont have chance again soon - also enjoy ur sleep while u can!
Georgia is now 2 weeks and taking up all my time! Havent even had chance to get to a computer so i can show u a piccy... Also not read even one new bnb thread since she arrived! Barely had time to catch up on the old ones lol

 

[skeet9924]

Hey Jo- it is going fast but still not fast enough lol.. I just want to get to a more safe zone.. I know I'll always worry but hopefully after the 12 week mark I'll breathe a little easier.. I have a home Doppler which helps ease my mind but I'm out of gel so impatiently waiting for my order to come in so I can hear my lo hb and relax a bit

 

[Mrs W 11]

The early days are def the hardest skeet, once you've got past 12 weeks and in time start to feel baby move, you will feel better. I think you always worry, even when they are here but it does get easier. It did for me, though I haven't been through what you have, the worry is really normal. Not long now!! X

Jo - how's Georgia at night are you getting much sleep? 2 weeks old! Can't wait to see pics, Freya is 5 weeks now, growing soooo fast but so adorable.

Excited for you army, it won't be long, I hope it all goes well when the time comes xx

There was a post in the first tri back when I was at that point about what you could use in place of gel if your board and want to search for it.

 

[armywife11]

Last night had an unusual amount of heartburn (I almost ran to the bathroom thinking I was going to be sick). Today my tummy has been rumbling all day and I have been in the bathroom more than normal but nothing crazy like others have mentioned.

Cramping a little but again nothing like I have previously. I hope this means something though and not that dinner just didn't agree with me.


Sorry for these little snips.. just thought I would share some symptoms so if it is something others know what to look for. Tomorrow I am 39 weeks! Crazy crazy! Then thursday if baby is still in my belly I will have another nst and ultra sound. Apparently my 24 hour urine was clean because she didn't call today so looks like I am still in the clear and won't necessarily have to be induced.

 

[Wilsey]

I wish I could say I went through something similar but mine just started one night as period pains and I went into labour from there! But I have heard of people having long lead ups with the first stages of labour.

 

[skeet9924]

Oh army I hope it happens soon for you!! Glad to hear everything was clear
And I'll look for that post!!

Mrs w- is it 12 weeks or 13 that your supposed to be ok.. I've read and hear a lot of conflicting info. We are telling oh family this weekend as I'll be 12 weeks.. But thinking I'll wait another week or 2 until I allow it to be known at work. One of the secretaries came up to me today and said " omg your pregnant" !! She knows I fluctuate in weight but I was off guard !! I was like " really !! I didn't realize I gained that much I thought I was hiding it well". .. She then went to tell me after having 8 children herself that it was not my belly that gave it away.. She just has great intuition with that. Lol she says she's pregnancy psychic

That 12 or 13 is just in relation to the second trimester starting. So it depends on how you calculate the tri's. I am use to 12 weeks so thats what I went with but we told people at 10 because I would not be going back to doctor till 14 weeks and I couldn't handle waiting any longer than we had.

I am pretty sure 12 weeks though because at that point certain development milestones have been reached.
