omg rachel, this is not your day! I'm so sorry you're having a hard time now. yuck.
 
Wow Rach, go take it easy for the night.. jeez.. idiots :dohh:

I can't believe you're contracting.. keep us updated, sounds like it might lead to something.. are they still doing a CS for you?

Oh and I called my midwife ESPECIALLY for you lol... levels were 31 last time and 30 today. Moderate polyhydramnios.. kind of afraid to Google it since they said she still looks fine in there. She said if they break 35 they may try to go in and remove some??? No thank you, just praying it continues to decrease. I have PLENTY of doc appts scheduled so I feel confident she's in good hands, and that we'll know asap if anything gets worse.. I just wish this was easy!!!
 
Rachel take it easy and try and rest. So many of you are very close to meeting your mini beans. I can't wait.
I hope you dont need anymore dr appts morgan. You sound maxed out.
The sickness has hit . I feel so sick and I dont think ill keep dinner down. Why does pregnancy make you sick. Grrrrr
 
A girl in my due date club had lots of excess fluid due to having type 1 diabetes or something along those lines. She had a c-section a few weeks before her due date because of it and her baby was around 10lbs if I remember correctly, due to the excess fluid.
 
Collete- It's all for the good of the bean! You can send me your yorkie if you aren't feeling up to it ;)

Waves- Holy crap.. so what the excess fluid made the baby grow bigger? That is weird! I think diabetes is what they tested me for.. and nada :/ no explanation!
 
I think the excess fluid had something to do with her baby's size but it was also because of her diabetes ... something about the baby taking all the sugar, causing her to be bigger too. But the baby retained a lot of fluid from sitting in so much of it, so she looked pretty squishy when she was born.
 
Thx for changing the name Morgan!

waves- id wait a bit. If they become real contractions more often then id go. Bh aren't related to being in labor. Sry u feel so bad.

rachel- feel better!! If they r real contractions and happening often id call ob.

afm, never realized how hard it would be to make the determination to take Alia to the doc or not because she's not feeling well. When she can't tell me how bad she feels. Its a weird feeling to have to determine that. IV only delt with people that could explain to me how they feel so l can help them decide. In this case she can't tell me anything and i/dh are the only deciding factors. Difficult situation.
 
Rachel, what an awful day! Feel better soon! I hope your day gets better, too!

So the doctors office called.. and this mama has GD. :( SO sad and frustrated. The diabetes center will be calling to schedule an appointment. :( :( :( I just want a healthy little baby this time. I don't want something to happen to him or her!
 
Aw, sorry to hear you have GD but at least you found out much earlier than most pregnant women do so you have a head start on taking care of yourself & baby the way you'd need to if you have GD, you know what I mean?
 
Oh no Sandy :( But do not fear! Nothing will happen to babe! I know Nikki can help so much with this.. all will be okay, don't stress too much over it. You will still have a happy, healthy baby love! Did you not have GD last time?

Nikki- I'd call the pediatrician with her symptoms.. Poor babe, I can't imagine a sick newborn.. I am going to be the biggest worrywart mama there ever was!!
 
Sandy- its hard to accept at first. I was in tears fearing I was hurting Alia. If ur determined to be healthy your baby will be healthy too. It sucks because everyone says "when ur preggo u can eat whatever u want...." and its not true!!! I support u the while way girl!

Click to expand...

Things settled down for the time being so as long as everything holds off until I take Hannah to my mom's when OH gets off of work, I won't feel so hesitant to call my OB about everything.

The BH are the least of my concerns. I've had them all day, every day for months now. It was just the increase of the BH on top of regular contractions and cramping and back pain (I had back labor last time and the back pain is very comparable.)
 
Morgan- I did call and they said if her coughing is alot bring her in....well can someone define "alot". If it was dh or me id assume it was just a cold....but I don't know with her. I'm going to watch her tonight and if it gets worse I'll take her in tomorrow. I'd hate to start the weekend and her get worse.
 
Thanks ladies. No I didn't have it before. I have to be healthy so baby can be. No more junk for me.. and I love ice cream!
 
i'm having so much anxiety today. over everything.
day care - where to go and the cost. Quad screening results - they're not in yet, so anxiety. getting our house/room ready - and how to get OH on board with starting to get things moving. money in general - not because we dont have it, but what are "good" home improvements and worthwhile to spend the dough on, and what things can wait - we have such BIG plans, ergh. and i havent felt movement yesterday/today so obviously i shouldnt have gone spinning because i wrapped the cord around its neck or something horrible. and a generalized "wtf did we do to our lovely little life we had?". stupid to think that, i know, but there it is. i said it.
 
Sandy-I am sorry you have gd but you found out so early. You have a great head start on it!
 
Ouch Rachel!!! That sounds awful! I'd stay in the privacy of my own home after a day like today!

Love the new name!

Sandy - so sorry about GD, but at least it's something that's not out of your control. With diet you can manage it. That's got to be comforting, right?

Amanda- I agree, maybe wait and see if the contractions get more intense? It'd suck to run the whole way out there to be sent home again!
