A stone weight gain is amazing! To be fair I know I have over eaten! It's defo not all baby weight!
Have you really gained more since stopping expressing? I didn't know that. X

 

[Faythe]

Yeah.

It's because I've been lazy and not prepared my lunch etc the night before. So I end up grazing through the day on small bits instead of eating a set breakfast and lunch

i will keep you updated...as long as theres time.....i have daydreams of being fully dilated and not even knowing it, haha
of course i'll keep in touch....i've got to see pics of you and sarah's babies! and then we can all talk newborns.

 

[moter98]

faythe, how did you do it?! i've gained 29 lbs.
rooster, my weight loss has slowed wayyyyy down so you may not gain as much in 3rd tri. i gained the bulk of my weight in 2nd tri. and not even a half a pound in the last 2 weeks, though i'm eating like a horse

 

[moter98]

had bloody show yesterday. need baby to hold off till tomorrow as we are supposed to get 8-12" snow today

 

[Faythe]

eeeep exciting!

 

[moter98]

Getting excited!

 

[rooster100]

Oh my god I'm very excited!! Anything else happening?? Xx

 

[moter98]

I've been getting painful menstrual like cramps that have increased by 1-2 more a day-been getting them since 36 weeks. They last about 10 minutes at a time. A few more bh like tightening a that last a long time, but these ones only happen while standing. More plug loss but not bloody since this morning. That's it, now I'm just waiting! Will see if it means anything or not. With ds I had bloody show day before I had him but it was a lot more than what I've had so far

 

[rooster100]

Moter I'm so excited and so is my baby it's kicking loads as I was reading that! Happy 39 weeks! Do if you don't have any other things going on will you be induced on Wednesday? X

Sarah happy 28 weeks! How are you? X

Hope you and baby Jacob are well Faythe? Xx

 

[moter98]

Happy 30 weeks rooster!
Happy 28 weeks Sarah!

Yes I am scheduled for induction on wed morning if nothing happens. Lost more of my plug last night so looks like its comin away slowly this time. Kinda hope baby holds off till at least tomorrow cause the weather here is very bad. We had 7.5" of snow yesterday by 5pm. Not sure how much more we've gotten overnight yet. Will be hard to get ds to my moms and then to hospital till the roads are cleared

 

[rooster100]

Baby better hold off then! Unless you want a home birth! I just think yr pregnancy has flown by! So happy!
I have started 'leaking' out of one of my breasts! It was quite shocking! X

 

[moter98]

no home birth for me please. they are a rarity here. i don't know anyone personally that's had one. i need my dr! with the complications i had last time, were it to happen again i would need to be taken to hospital for removal anyway. and i am in no way wanting a med free birth....bring on the epi for me lol! i have no qualms about that at all. induction is just 2 days away. while i would like to go naturally before then, i'm still going through with induction. i think it's the safest way for me, plus i'm guaranteed the dr that delivered me last time and he knows my history. i think i will just feel better about it knowing i have a dr that did such a good job the last time.

i've heard of lots of women leaking, but not ever experienced it myself till after birth. i thought it must be because i have small bbs so not much there to leak, ha
do you have some nursing pads? may be time to start using them

 

[moter98]

sarah, feeling better? you are getting to the end! i cannot wait to see what you have, boy or girl. you too rooster!

 

[rooster100]

No haven't got pads yet its like a tiny drop so hoping to hold off yet another sexy new item to wear!
I totally agree with you Moter, I'm sure home births are lovely if you really want one but I would want drs/nurses/pain killers etc on hand! Imagine if something went wrong and you were stuck at home!
I am convinced I'm having a boy! But I guess we will find out in April. Sarah I think yr having a girl! X

 

[moter98]

I gotcha. Yeah, the pads can be a bit annoying. Hopefully you won't need them till baby is here.
More bloody show today....when are you coming baby....it's driving me mad

 

[rooster100]

Come on baby moter!! We have been waiting for you for a long time! xx
