i agree! dont get me wrong i love my baby boys too, but man was i happy thinking about doing all the girlie stuff with my girls when i was preggo with them. i really loved getting all the little pink dresses and ruffly butt clothes too

they are 10 and 12 now so having times together where we do mud masks and paint our nails or do our hair, its just so much fun

ok so I actually have a little energy so going to clean while I do... this house is a mess

 

[luckyme225]

Blah, I need to clean too. The house needs the be swept and swiffered.

 

[MissFox]

Cami that is GREAT NEWS!
Maybe I'll have time to clean the house someday.

Cami - so glad to hear about your fluid levels!!!!

Oh.. and I found out I failed my 1 hour glucose test... have to go do the 3 hour test now I have my dr's appt today so I'll find out how much I failed by (I didn't bother asking the nurse since they don't like to give out numbers... she just said my numbers were 'a little elevated')
Grumble grumble... I don't want undetected GD... but I just want the way to test for it to be easier!
I was supposed to fast for 2 hours before the 1 hour test... I think I fasted for more like 6... now I'm wondering if that made me fail
I'll have to fast for 8-10 hours for this test... going that long without eating makes me throw up still Then tack another 3 hours onto that with that super sugar juice in my system?
Excuse me while I pout here...

 

[JNA]

Aw sorry Lisa. With all the technology of today there should be a better more time efficent way to test for GD

 

[southerngal2]

camishantel- That's great news! I'm so glad!

lisa- Sorry to hear that! Wish there was a better test.

 

[blessedmomma]

lisa- im sorry you failed your test i wouldnt want to have to take the longer ones. i did hear from someone on another thread that if you fast for too long it can make it rise. maybe thats what happened??

got my sonogram done and my fluid is lower than its ever been. was at 4cm. baby only has 3 cm of fluid by his legs and 1 cm by his butt. none by his head. im worried about him now. this increases lots of risks for him and stillbirth is one. not happy with the results. all my bedrest and tons of water drinking is not working

 

[lisaf]

aww, I'd rather have to take a crummy test than have to worry about that stuff blessedmomma
