TTC and Beyond!

[wavescrash]

^I hate that they made you feel that way. It looks like a lot to me, I'd call them and report what you saw at least. Tell them how much was there and that it was all red blood.. on top of awful cramping I think you should prob be on bed rest (if you haven't decided that for yourself, already! ha)

Try swaying on all fours to get her out of there!

Thanks. I knew it was going to be like that which is why I didn't want to call/go in last night in the first place. The nurse I saw the other day when I had my NST was so much nicer saying she'd rather I came in and baby went crazy moving around than not know for sure. I just wish they all acted that way or didn't act like I don't know what being pregnant is like lol. This isn't my first rodeo. But this happened to me so many times at the end of my last pregnancy - I'd go in at my doctor's request and they'd tell me it's nothing/normal/call when contracting every 5 minutes.

Hahaha, definitely going to try all 4's - if nothing else to take so of the pressure off down low.

Waves-Sorry you didn't get much off the registry, I felt like we didn't either. We did get some big things, so I guess that made up for it. Glad Leah seems to be ok. That's weird the machine doesn't pick up what you are feeling. That's obnoxious...

AFM-Broke out in a rash on my belly. Now my boobs, hands, forearms, feet and calves itch too. Thinking it might be from our laundry detergent so I'm washing all my clothes in free and clear...hopefully it isn't puppp....

Thanks. We didn't have a big turnout really so I know that played into why we didn't get as much "necessary" stuff as we did the fun stuff. Oh well. We'll be okay, it's just a minor annoyance.

Good luck :/ Hope it isn't PUPPP

Oh no Julie- I hope it goes away soon!!

Morgan- loooove the invites!! Ill post a pic of mine if I can! I like the first the best! I'm sorry about the pothole, that must be so scary for you! If it is really bothering you I'd call, otherwise I think you are probably ok!

Amanda- I'm sorry they treated you like that! Is there a way to maybe make you appt for tomorrow instead of friday so you just have to do to the doctors office??

Sandy- I can't wait to hear about your appt!!!

Afm- passed my 3 hour with flyinggggg colors!! Like to the extent that they think they gave me the wrong drink at my 1 hour bc the 1 hr is 50g of glucose and the 3 hr is 100grams!! I'm SO relieved!!! I had ice cream for diner last night, juuuuuust in case today's results weren't so good!! Lol!! But yay for no GD!!

 

[Cowgirl07]

Yay Kara.

 

[Disneybaby26]

This is the front of ours!

 

[Cowgirl07]

Awe those invites are so cute. I don't attend baby showers often.

 

[morganwhite7]

Kara- Oooh fancy, fancy- I love it! And yahooo for no GD

Ours is going to be Jaxon's 1st birthday/Marley shower family party type deal. MIL just emailed saying she booked the party hall though! Yay!

Katrina- As selfish/hypocritical as it is, I wouldn't really want to attend a baby shower either. Unless it was a sister or cousin's. Hoping there are less people like us that RSVP to mine though!

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

Yay Kara for passing the test!! When do they normally do these? Just wondering when I have that to look forward too!?

So, the past day and a half I haven't been feeling much movement and it's freaking me out a bit. I read online that even at 20 weeks that the baby's movements aren't regular enough to go off of, but why suddenly do I feel almost nothing? I had a bit last night, but almost nothing today. Trying not to worry, as i'm sure it's okay, but I have my scan in 3 days, so I guess I just worry that something is wrong. I've been feeling movement for a couple of weeks.. mostly at night. What do you ladies think?

 

[Kiamaria83]

Thanks morgan. Thats eased my mind. I only ever feel ovulation on the right and each pregnancy seems to be a bit of aching on the right side. I am such a worrier.

Loving all the invites girls. A baby shower isnt a big thing here . People tend to moan if you mention it. Although my sister threw me one and I loved it.

Oh amanda you poor thing. No need to apologise . I k ow how uncomfortable it is towards the end of a pregnancy. Your description definitely sounds like the start of labour though. I dont know why they have treated you so badly.

Sorry about the rash julie. If you have camomile cream that really sooths it.

Well done kara . I bet you're so glad thats over.

Britt try not to panic. It is early to be feeling movement and baby could be sleeping. Its exciting that your scan is so soon.

 

[Ingodshand]

Waves- So sorry you are not feeling well. It definitely sounds like something is going on. Maybe try to sit and rest as much as possible. Are you drinking enough water? Hope it gets better soon.

Britt- I think, even at 20 weeks, it is still early to feel movement every day. I remember at that time that some days I would feel Evan all the time and then nothing for a day or two. I am sure that everything is fine! Maybe drink some juice and see if you feel him/her

Kara- Yay for passing the test!!!

Julie- Ugh so sorry for the rash and I too hope it is not PUPP!

Sandy- Any news?

Hi to everyone else! I read along to every comment you all put on here and I think about you every day. It just gets hard to write at work and then I am so tired of seeing a computer that I can 't get on at night!

AFM- Had my 32 week checkup today and everything is great with Evan. He is measuring right on track!

I did comment that I have been leaking and didn't know if it was urine or fluid. They gave me an ultrasound, but I didn't get to see Evan Then she told me that I had gained 6 pounds in the past two weeks which I found crazy so she readded and said oh yeah, only 4 but that is still alot. Yeah, no shit lady! Then she told me that I would have to be monitored my entire labor and not able to walk around at all since I am having a VBAC. I have been on the verge of tears since the apt since I really do not want another c-section. I can't imagine just sitting in a bed for another delivery. My back/hips were killing me last time.

 

[morganwhite7]

I'm so excited realizing Waves might have her LO here soon and before you know it we'll ALL be talking about mucous plugs and natural induction... I just can't wait!!!

Once the babies start coming it'll be crazy.. a few a month! Wow.

Sarah- I'll be in your shoes here soon with this VBAC ordeal... Don't worry, from what I've gathered there's really no way of knowing how birth will go until it's time! I hope, hope, hope you get your VBAC! Will they induce you at 39 weeks also?

Mine is trying sweeps from 37 weeks and inducing with a foley bulb @ 39 to avoid RCS.

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

I'm sure you are right Colette-- this baby seems to be pretty active though. I've been feeling a lot for this early. I guess that's why i'm freaking now that I haven't felt much. I did read that baby goes through a growth spurt between weeks 20-21 (right where I'm at) so maybe he/she just isn't moving that much?

 

[Kiamaria83]

This is my latest frer. Its so much darker. I guess thats a good sign.

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

I know Morgan! there are a bunch of us that are due within 2 months of eachother! There were will so many babies come spring time!!

 

[Kiamaria83]

Yes britt you're right. They arent always active. Sometimes elliott was playing football in my tum and then other times nothing for ages. Maybe have a sugary drink and play some music to your bump .

 

[Cowgirl07]

Colette that is so dark and your period isn't due yet?

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

I drank a diet pepsi, and i'm starting to feel little movements over where I know baby is hanging out.. probably mad at me for waking him/her up! haha

 

[Cowgirl07]

Lol yea soon there will be lots of babies in this group.

 

[Kiamaria83]

Sarah so sorry. Have they said you definitely have to have a c section?

 

[morganwhite7]

Britt- Don't count on CONSTANT movement til ~22 weeks. I was worried at 20 weeks too, she's just busy building muscles to punch you with in the next few months, I promise
P.s. HOLY CRAP 3 DAYS!

Katrina- Yours too missy!! Not going anywhere til I see it happen!
