U.S. Mommies To Be

[MissFox]

I had NO CLUE until I sat down to find out what we were having. I just wanted the baby to be healthy. Sounds corny but I had so many people tell me I was lying and I had to have a way I wanted it to go deep down but I didn't. No idea and I didn't care lol

i dont mind either way because i want both but its just a feeling i had since the first day i got 2 lines.. if we find out its a boy then i say we beat the odds because we DTD jan 1 and everything says my conception date was the 5th which i know i O'D either the 4th or 5th so i tohught there was no chance that cycle and i didnt get back home untill the 9th lol

I didn't care either way. I just had a feeling they were girls.

 

[heyyady]

I didn't get a vibe on my girls until the day before the ultrasound- and then I just knew! I thought we might be disappointed as we both really wanted boys- but we've honestly been just plain excited

I knew from the minute I was pregnant with my first son that he was a boy. With this one I didn't get a feeling until around 12 weeks but I was right, found out at 14 weeks I was having another little boy.

well I am back from the Dr. and on Friday I was still thick and barely 1cm... today I am 90% effaced and almost 3cm.... it should be soon... funny thing is I really haven't had many pains or anything just some pressure and I dilated but last week when I was having all the pains nothing really... hope the next part of dilation is as easy as this has been.... he said he will be surprised if I make it to next wedensday but I know sometimes people dilate then stall out... I hope not... he said to make sure and have my bags packed and in the car when I come in on friday in case he has to send me straight to hospital.. now I am getting nervous... lol.... and since I got home I just don't feel right... I am dizzy and feel exhausted.... now since I got home from the Dr. I have been having kinda uncomfortable contractions... not painful still just a little more intense and my Dr. is closed tomorrow...

 

[camishantel]

however I am full term tomorrow so YAY... and I finally got my bag completely packed and my outfit for going to the hospital ready...

How exciting! I can't wait to hear your birthstory. I've never dialated early so good luck, hun.

camishantel : good luck! cant wait to see pics


How are you ladies sleeping? I can no longer sleep through the night. Im also getting hot flashes even with 2 fans blowing directly on me.

 

[RosieCheeks]

I thought I was having a boy since day one of finding out I was preggo. So much for mother's intuition because she is clearly a little girl.

camishantel - good luck!

very exciting!!! I hope I dilate and efface that quick. Hope you get to meet your LO soon.

SLEEP?!! I only do that in 2 hours increments. Giveor take of course. I also can only sleep with a sheet covering half of me until it's too cold to not have any blankets on.
DH and I dtd last night (WOOHOO ) and when I got up to use the bathroom a little later I had 2 really strong contractions. They were nothing like my BH that I have and so painful. They were also 2 minutes apart and man was I excited- but it's gone nowhere. He was pretty excited it caused them so we'll be trying that again!

 

[camishantel]

GL Sam ..

Yeah Rosie my mothers intuition was wrong s well I swore I was having a little girl and obviously he is not
On the agenda today and tomorrow clean clean clean clean clean... and maybe it will make labor come on... lol

 

[lisaf]

I think I'm the only one who doesn't have trouble sleeping, lol! I'm a reallllllly heavy sleeper. In fact, DH was apparently having a party with baby last night... poking my belly and having baby kick him. I only briefly woke up for this and only did because DH got a little too firm with his pokes

 

[MissFox]

Lisa- that's how I am a lot of the time with DH- but now my muscles are so tight that he pokes and it feels like he's bruising me! Infact I have 2 bruises from his "gentle" pokes. He thinks its funny but he does like to play with her when she wakes up at 1am

 

[lisaf]

lol, I'm just glad he can get this LO to respond! I can never seem to make him kick... and with me able to sleep through it? all the better! Only sad that I didn't get to 'share' the experience, though with how exhaused I am, I needed that sleep badly!

 

[MissFox]

I have days where I cannot get to her move for the life of me (usually if I have been at my mom's house for the night and didnt' sleep with DH). I'll do all the tricks and get just the minimum amount of movements where I want to go to L&D and have them look at her but then all I have to do is wait until I get home and have DH start talking and she will kick like no other!

 

[lisaf]

wow, wish mine responded reliably to a stimulus, lol!!
Mine will kick up a storm (usually) after I eat... especially if its a dessert. But if he's not moving much and I try to eat some kind of candy to make him move, no luck!

 

[luckyme225]

Liam is typically quiter during the day, I don't get a whole lot of movements. Night time is a different story, I will wake up at weird time to him kicking my ribs and dancing around my belly like crazy. I'm not going to get any sleep when this kid comes.

 

[heyyady]

Hubby can't get the girls to move at all- they can be rioting in there and as soon as he puts his hand on to feel them they stop (Oh crap! Dad's home! ) He's disappointed but I keep telling him I hope his calming effect continues after they're born!
