Pregnancy Info HOME

*BTW- I AM 28 WEEKS TODAY!!

Hey JNFR- how are you doing? I am now 23 weeks and 3 days today- so I won't be moving over to the 3rd trimester chat area until mid August. My doctor set my due date yesterday for Halloween though because I am such a high risk pregnancy I will be delivering at 37 weeks, so that is good for me. I went to the Neurologist on Tuesday but he was a complete moron and had no clue what has the problem is with the pain in my head but lately it is getting a little more manageable so that is such a blessing. So how are you feeling? Are you having a pretty easy going pregnancy? Your having a girl right? Do you have any names picked out yet? Keep me updated.

I'm glad to hear that your doing ok & still hanging in there. For some reason I thought you were a lil further along, closer to me. Did you ever go get that wisdom tooth pulled to see if it helps? My pregnancy has been pretty good so far, I'm just starting to get uncomfortable- working & being on my feet isn't helping it any, but I just got a note from my dr. the other day requesting limited lifting & standing, so I guess we'll have to see how that goes. I asked if I could be put out on disability, but she said it was too early. My legs are what is bothering me the most- purple blotches & vericose veins starting to show alot. Yes, I am having a lil girl, already have a 9yr. old son. Her name is gonna be Gianna Bella. I will be 29 weeks on wednesday, only 10 more weeks left from there! They are going to induce me at 39 weeks b/c w/ my son his head was so big that they had to forcep him out, lol. So, needless to say, they don't want that happening to my baby girl. Do you have facebook or myspace? Stay in touch!

I love the name you picked out for you daughter very pretty and Italian sounding..lol. My youngest daughters name is Gabriella Leone, I just loved the sound of it. I too have a 9 year old son, he is so excited to finally be getting a brother this time. I don't have a myspace or facebook.. I honestly don't know what facebook is but I will go research it and see what it is and maybe create one. You can email me anytime though- basically it is the same screenname at aol. I'm sorry to hear about your legs bothering you. Have you tried wearing the support panyhose? I have never tried them but people say they work well. No I never did get the wisdom tooth pulled- honestly it stopped hurting so I just kind of put it off to see if I can wait until after the baby is born. You must be so excited only 10 more weeks to go.. it makes it seem so surreal huh? Ok well keep in touch and we will talk soon! Have a great day!

Awe, I like your daughters name as well. Yes- our baby girls name is a very Italian name- I am for the most part Italian & my b.f is full blooded, which is why we picked that name. My e-mail address is pretty much the same as my screen name also, but at yahoo. You should pop over to the October Mommies thread on the 3rd tri occasionally, I'm sure the other ladies would love to hear from you. We all cheated & moved over there a few weeks early, before we actually started the 3rd tri.- I guess it was the excitement of almost being there, lol. I have not tried the support panty hose, although I should. My dr. suggested them, but I am a supervisor in the kitchen of a really big psychiatriac hospital & it gets extremely hot! We don't have air conditioning in most of the work areas, so I think the panty hose would make me super hot. Where are you from, are you in the states? We finally got a lil relief from the heat- it hasn't been that hot the past few days, which is great. I'm from Jersey. Well, time to get back to work, ttyl.

Wow, that must be so hard working in a hot kitchen like that. I give you a lot of credit because I know I definitely couldn't do it. It has been really hot here, I live in Las Vegas and it has been averaging around 106 degrees. It usually stays hot until at least 9pm at night so besides being so sick even if I wanted to go out I couldn't because of the heat. I am originally from the East coast though- raised in Rhode Island.. I miss the weather. I will definitely email on your account later on in the week. Try not to work too hard and give you legs a break once in a while =) Talk to you soon!

Hey, how are you feeling. Wow- Vegas, I would be dying in that kinda heat all the time! Is it as humid as over here, or more like a dry heat? Well, they finally put me on like a light duty at work- my dr. wrote a note requesting lifting of no more that 20-25 lbs. & limited standing, so for the most part the people at work have been helpful & supportive. Are you having a baby shower? I am so excited the ladies at work are having one for me next sunday, then my big family one is on the 24th of this month. I have been getting super anxious lately. My b.f. & I went clothes shopping for the baby yesterday. We got her like 6 outfits from Old Navy- shopping for baby girls is so much fun- I love it already, lol. Gotta get back to work, just wanted to stop by to see how you have been feeling. ttys.

hey, are you still hanging in there? I am now going on 32 weeks. Went to the dr. on Friday & they finally put me out of work- yay! Tomorrow is my last day. They also said I am measuring fairly large- 36 centimeters & think the baby is breech. I am scheduled for an ultra sound on Tuesday to see what exactly is going on in there. If baby does not turn in the next week or two they said they would have to schedule me for a c-section at 37 weeks. So, I guess I've gotten a lil bit of good news & not so good news this week. How have you been? I hope you're feeling ok!

Hey JNFR- congrats on not having to work much longer- you must be so relieved. I am moving over to the 3rd trimester board this week YAY!!!! Only 11 weeks left until my scheduled C-Section date, Halloween. Try not to worry too much about the baby being breech- a lot changes in two weeks, but I will be praying for you. I am going on Thursday for my glucose test. Also I had my final v____al ultrasound last week at my Perinatologist and my Dr, said that they saw a bright white spot on our sons heart- so in 2 weeks they will be performing an Electrocardigram on the baby to make sure there is nothing wrong with his heart. I am trying not to panic because up until this ultrasound they haven't seen any thing wrong with his heart. I am remaining optimistic but keep us in your prayers please. Other than that, I have been feeling a little bit better.. I have my good days and my bad days. Today is an off day and I have been sick all day- so that hasn't been very fun, the good news is that since I have been so sick I have only gained 7lbs this entire pregnancy. My head pains are still present but I am dealing the best I can with them and my blood pressure has been elevated but so far I have convinced my DR's to keep me off pills. How about you, feeling good? How are your legs? Ok well I am feeling nauseaus again so I better run.. I will see you on the 3rd trimester board!
