TTC and Beyond!

[TTCaWee1]

Julie I'm so happy for you that you are having twins. ESP bc it's not like you have sperm on hand. Now you can get the first 2 out of the way right off the bat. I would be terrified though lol. So do you have to be seen sooner since there are 2? When do you go back?

So I was so happy today. I went to my 34 week check up, and little man finally turned had-down! He's been breech the whole time and I KNEW he flipped over earlier this week. What a relief! Now I can relax for the next 3-6 weeks and wait for him to decide to come.

That's awesome!! I know you were worried about that! Yay for a cooperative baby!!

Emily-I'm so glad he's cooperating! Yay!

Rachel-I'm excited bc I've always wanted twins...I may regret that eventually but I always thought it would be amazing. I'm mainly scared about how huge and uncomfortable ill be and all the complications that can arise from twins. DW is scared for when they get here lol We meet with our ob Monday morning so we'll discuss all that then. I still want to be as uninvasive and natural as possible. We have Meet the Midwives at the biryhing center Thursday, so it'll be interesting to compare what the ob says to what they say. I figure we'll end up with some version in the middle that suits us and makes us feel comfortable.
I think I'm almost more scared of a loss now that there's two...I guess bc it's riskier and I could lose 2 babies. I really hope they stick with me!

 

[TTCaWee1]

Yay Emily!

Robert- thanks! I totally still am... they got better, but still swollen.

Emily- YAYAYAYAY!

 

[Disneybaby26]

Rachel- I think we are due for a belly shot from you!!

 

[TTCaWee1]

I didn't even take one this week...I'll do one Sunday for my "11 week"

 

[clynn11]

Yeah I am wanting to see some baby bellies!!!!!

 

[TTCaWee1]

Still haven't seen anything from Morgan or Julie....hint hint...

Omg I have eaten so bad today. I guess it's allowed since I've been doing so well but seriously the closest thing I've had to healthy was some OJ with breakfast...

 

[Disneybaby26]

I had two pieces of toast with peanut butter, a big grab cool ranch Doritos, a container of Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes from whole foods and movie theatre popcorn with a coke...that make you feel any better??? LOL

I told DW I want to start some pics on Sunday since Monday will be 8 weeks. She told me to suck in this morning and I tried...didn't do much lol I should have some fun bump pics coming up with two in there!

I had orange juice, a belvita pack, chicken noodle soup with crackers, a cherry limeade and kfc for dinner...I started out healthier anyway lol I'm paranoid about preeclampsia and gestational diabetes now, so I'm going to start eating better and walking everyday. Hopefully that will help!

 

[TTCaWee1]

Ok I feel better lol

I had waffles and oj, French toast, chicken fajitas, rice and beans, pita chips, Doritos, popcorn...and I just ate 2 carrots bc I felt guilty lol

 

[Disneybaby26]

I'm usually so good! Like I truly enjoy good, healthy food! I just thought I was gonna vom all day and that held it in lol! It's definitely hit its peak so far these past two days, I'm really hoping I don't feel like crappola the whole time were in fl!!

 

[jury3]

Yeah, I started out eating really healthy but once the ms kicked in it started getting harder. It makes me want to eat things I know I will like and things that sound soothing to the tummy...like carbs lol I haven't been drinking enough water either. I have to be better!!!
P.S. waffles and french toast sounds delicious...

 

[TTCaWee1]

The waffles were frozen so they weren't impressive but the French toast for lunch with cinnamon sugar was amazing!!

 

[goldstns]

oh goodness! as the one diagnosed with gestational diabetes I BEG you to eat better!!! Since I was diagnosed I have to now see my doc every other week AND a nutritionist every other week.... so CONSTANT doc apts! AND I have to prick my finger 4-8 times a day to check my blood level (which means I have to do it at work). It is really embarrassing and uncomfortable. Let alone WAY expensive because my insurance doesn't pay for the nutritionist.... SO PLEASE WATCH WHAT YOU EAT.... ITS NOT WORTH IT! I am still learning how to eat, but I am happy to share with you all some internet info about eating right during pregnancy if you are interested. Plus the LAST thing anyone wants is bed rest because you can't work (aka NO income) AND you DH usually has to work less to take care of you because you aren't even supposed to get up for meals.... so PLZ be careful! I regret it. On the positive note, I am eating SUPER healthy and my blood sugar is looking good, to me at least.... well see what doc says because I don't 100% understand everything.

 

[TTCaWee1]

I eat a lot of fruits and veggies normally, string cheese, Colby jack cheese, salad, some form of meat...I'd say mostly fruits and veggies though. Just had a fat day lol. My random sugar last week was 85 in the afternoon after eating all day. I'm hoping it stays that way
