Pregnant check in

[Regina Philange]

How are you guys doing??

Anything you want to share?

Anything you want to complain about?

I am here to listen.

[TrudyCampbell]

Regina did you pick a name?

[Regina Philange]

Im 35 weeks 2 days. I am so uncomfortable, and im not sleeping. So much pressure in my vag, i feel like shes going to topple out. Had my growth ultrasound on tuesday, and shes 5 lbs 7 oz. I am all scheduled for a c section on March 24th, but may MAYYYYY try for a vbac if she goes earlier. She is a normal sized baby, and my placenta previa cleared up so ive been debating this. Louie was already over 7 lbs at this point. He was born a week early, at 9 lbs 2 oz and to think this baby is average sized, makes me debate everything.

Yes. Locked in and loaded!

38 weeks!!! Less than a week and he will be here! I am getting really excited, but am also sad that I'm going to be away from B for so many days. I have been obsessing about what else I need to get done in order to get ready. I'm trying to keep the house as clean as possible just in case I go into labor on my own.

I really hope that he doesn't come until I'm induced though because B has early intervention school (and picture day) on Monday and I want to go because I never get to take him since I'm working. I really want to spend Mommy/Blakie days on Monday and Tuesday. Not sure what we will do on Tuesday, but I just want to soak up every last minute with just 'us'.

I talked to my mom, and she is going to spend the night on Tuesday night since we'll be leaving for the hospital at 4a so that I can tuck B into his bed as the solo one just once more. Ugh - I'm getting really emotional about rocking his world. I am soooo excited for this baby, and can't wait to meet him too. It's just such a range of emotions. I'm also semi sad as I will never be pregnant again (and also kind of happy I will never be pregnant again), and am trying to soak in these last few days of kicks.

17 weeks and a few days.

Nothing exciting over here. Started feeling movement multiple times a day this week so that has been cool.

I actually feel pretty good and had been sleeping okay. I'm getting RLP this time and I never had that with Ada so that sucks.

I'm just in a hold until we verify boy at the a/s in mid March. It seemed so obvious at the scan, but I'd had 10 people verify it for me if they'd let me lol.

Regina Philange - I was just telling H the other night I think this baby is just going to fall out of my vagina because he's so low and there's so much pressure. I just got a 'wtf gross' look. Lol. He said I know how to really turn him on!

Soooo...?

I have definitely mentioned it before!

She will be Zoey. (heart) 

[bigapple]

32 weeks. I'm feeling so much pressure, and Baby feels like he's going to fall out when I'm walking. I've had to shorten my stride because I just can't take my normal long steps. I'm really hoping this means a faster, easier labor because he's already down there, right? Carter was still high up in my ribs when my water was broken, so this is a totally different experience.

I'm coming down with a cold, Steve leaves this afternoon for a boys weekend, work is beyond insane, and my child is at a new low of not sleeping. Hold me.

Otherwise I feel good. I've held the same weight for a month, so that's good after my massive early gains.

38 weeks today.

I feel eh. Tired cause I'm sleeping like shit, sore because of all the contractions and nervous because of my high bp. I just want to go into labor on my ownnnnn.



Oh and baby's head is engaged but I'm not more than 1 but very soft. For whatever that will help.

I thought you were questioning Jocelyn? I love Zoey and Louie

I love it too! I was loving Jocelyn and Josephine(Josie), but my H wasn't on board. Zoey was always at the top, but i wanted to really make sure.

I feel like all I do is complain about pregnancy at this point. I'd like to stop, lol.

[charmediamsure]

I have a head cold starting and I'm ticked that I can't take anything for it. Other than that, I'm ok.

My anatomy scan is scheduled for Tues. March 17. I am so impatient to find out if I am having a boy or girl.

It actually makes me feel better when other people complain, because i've had a rough few days. So don't feel bad complaining to me!

[imimahoney]

I seriously never complained with Ari bur this pregnancy is so different I just can't not bitch. I blame the female fetus, haha. She's already causing problems!

[Deleted]

Just 12w1d. I'm excited for my NT scan tomorrow morning. Once I get the results of that I'll tell my boss about the pregnancy, because I just don't think I could hide it much longer even if I wanted to.
I'm so tired. Pregnancy insomnia is already hitting and I barely sleep at night, which makes the days very long. I'm waiting on the shirt I ordered for J to get here, so I can get some cute announcement pictures taken, and then I think I'll go public on St. Pattys day.
Other than that I'm in a long waiting game/holding pattern for now.

I agree 1000%. I don't remember being like this with Lou.

How are you guys doing?? 12/13 weeks here. moving right along. Just about to hit 2nd tri. Haven't told anyone yet about the new baby but I am guessing we will start top tell in the next few weeks.
2 people offered me a seat on the train yesterday, so I guess I am showing.
I may bust out maternity clothes in the next few weeks. I will be pregnant for most of the summer so I don't want my winter clothes to go to waste. I mightstart week 16 again.
Its a BOY! I can't think of a name for the life of me but I have started designing his nursery and I bought a ton of newborn clothes in the appropriate season and a few cases of diapers to spread out costs.

Heartburn and LBL consume my days! 25 weeks pregnant and feeling bigger and heavier than I think I should at this point. I am both freaked and excited that next week will be the start of my third tri!

Next ob appointment isn't until March 9 - they'll schedule me for my glucose test then. I'm scared - I didn't get GD with H but I feel as though that was a lucky fluke. This time around I'm eating better but I'm worried anyway.

[blane12]

teamhayes - what's the nursery going to look like? colors? theme?

This is a good idea. I saved some diapers that were half-used before I had to size up. Do you think they expire?

[blane12]

Regina Philange - I love Zoey! So adorable!

[teamhayes]

I don't think they expire, but if they do I would still use them

[carawestt]

Regina Philange I figured you'd go with Zoey. I love it!

no theme I don't think

K's is navy white and baby blue (chevron, stripes, polka dots)

M's is navy white and red (nautical, stripes)

#3 will be navy white and Kelly green ( probably polka dots and stripes)

there isn't much left without overlap of textures.

Im not an animal themed person or sports themed person so I don't know what else to do

his room is REALLLLLLY small too. It will just fit a crib and it has built ins so no room for a dresser.

I will get a big area rug and stuff for the wall but that's about it due to space

I am 37 weeks and a couple days. I am very uncomfortable. He is sitting super low, so walking is very painful. I just had a growth ultrasound on Tuesday. They are estimating that is already 6 lbs 13 oz. He is still breech though, so c-section it is. My scheduled date is 3/18.

I am feeling the panic set in. I have to go shopping to get some more stuff and have DH pull some things out of the attic. Plus, I have to pack my hospital bag.

The weird thing is, with my girls I was induced on my due date. Both times. So, I really will be surprised if I go into labor on my own before my due date this time, just from history. This pregnancy has definitely been different though. However, within the past two days, I have had two different people ask me how I was feeling and if I thought he was going to come early. My mom asked me yesterday and told me she has a strange feeling I was going to go this week. Then I had DH's aunt send me an e-mail today asking the same exact thing. Do they know something I don't know? Kind of weird.

[The Foozzler]

A little over 32 weeks today. Slightly freaking out about the fact that it is almost March, which means April will be here soon.

C section is scheduled for just over 6 weeks from now.

Not much to share since the good ultrasound on Monday.

I am tired, achy, and huge. But overall I feel good, so it is hard to complain. Baby is still sitting really high, so I feel like my ribs are taking a beating most days.

[careyalis]

I'm not doing so hot emotionally. My anxiety is really eating away at me. I went from thinking it was twins because of the high hcg to being convinced that it is molar. My ultrasound Monday can not get here fast enough! Jeff is anxious too and he is the calm one, so it is really taking its toll on all of us. I hate that we have become so pessimistic, but I'm still not convinced that this is going to happen. I was feeling good about it before, but I still have so much doubt. I am almost 8 weeks now. I feel like I have aged so much over the past 4 years from worry.
