when the "30 yo ttc#1" ladies get their bfp's

Forums New posts
I hope everyone had a lovely mothers day yesterday.

I had to go to the hospital early this morning, so that wasn't fun. But all seems well according to some monitoring tests. May have had a dramatic bloody show, not sure what else it may have been. I'm not ready though, but I'm trying not to feel stressed about it.
 
Hey ladies. Happy Mother's Day to all of you. We had a good day. Went to the cemetery to leave flowers for DH's mom. Then we went to lunch with my parents. Abigail did very well. At least until we got home and she had had more than enough by that point.

I hope everyone is feeling well.
 
Well, dialation has begun! I'm 1cm and 75% effaced. I did some walking this last weekend (almost bought a puppy at the mall because I'm nuts) and thought my water broke on Sunday. Turns out I peed myself because I was so hydrated. The hospital staff must love me. Lol I go back every Tuesday now for internal checks (those are real fun) and if I'm 2cm by two weeks from today she will induce on the 27th. I have a feeling I'll be past 2cm by next week though and she'll come on her own. I plan to do lots of walking. I'd love for my body to do this whole thing on it's own instead of forcing. I guess inducing before week 39 increases chances of c section which I do not want. Soooooo now I wait some more. It's nice to know something is happening in there and also nice to have a set date so DH can plan his surgeries around it and my actual dr will be there...that is until little baby girl decides to screw up the plan and come at the worst time possible! We will see!
 
excitement going on! Hope everyone had a nice mother's day! Not too much going on, just busy with work and caring for Josie.
 
Ah JCM we're so close! I'm 37 weeks on Sunday. I'm hoping for a couple more weeks. I'm not sure when/if cervical exams happen. Two of my midwife's will be on vacation until the end of May, so it would be really nice if I could hang on until they come back!

I"m glad you had a good Mother's Day PD. I hope everyone else did too!
 
I'm currently bouncing on a yoga ball. Haha and I've been walking all day. I have so much energy today...where has this been for 9 months? I've missed myself!
 
Abigail got up to her hands and knees yesterday. Then she got the biggest grin on her face. I contemplated pushing her over so she never learns to crawl. Darn babies growing and stuff
 
Lol, aw, they do grow so fast!


I'm feeling more energetic too JCM! Although it may be because my last day of work is tomorrow!
 
Walked all morning at the mall and Costco. Just walked another 2 miles with DH. Got some back pain and contractions...then it went away. Booooo

Boo indeed! I hope you have better luck over this weekend.
 
So sorry for not updating sooner! It's been a crazy whirlwind. I had Miriam Caroline on her due date, my birthday too!, after nearly 48 hours of labor, 11 hours of I medicated Pictocin contractions, and an epidural. She's was 7lb11oz, 20.5in. I'll be back wih more details and pics later.
 
Yay congrats Owl! I'm so jealous! I want full details on how you did it! My contractions are mostly 5 mins apart but still only dilated at 1. I worked so hard this weekend too!
Oh and happy birthday!!! What a great present!
 
congrats owl! JCM- the early stages of labor seem to take the longest! But once you get past 5 or 6 cm dilated I think they go pretty quickly! Hopefully you will have an uneventful labor and delivery!

A quick update on us: It's been a rough weekend with Josie's breathing being awful despite being back on the nebulizer! After multiple phone calls and to doctor's visits, Josie was diagnosed with her first ear infection and is on antibiotics! It pays to be persistent! They were actually very nice about it and answered all my questions, I love our pediatrician and the whole office! She is now asleep. If your baby all of the sudden isn't nursing or taking the bottle, you might ask about an ear infection. That was the only thing that really changed since Friday and Josie was eating her solids well! Trust your mommy instinct!
 
Aww, poor Josie. I'm glad you figured it out, and I hope she's feeling better soon.
 
Ah wow congratulations owl I'm so pleased your little lady is her safe and what a fantastic birthday present!
Jcm I'm on lookout for you now! Exciting stuff!
Sorry Josie not feeling well MgreenM hope she feels better soon.
Sorry iv been awol been extremely busy with the little miss! I'll endeavour to do better!
