Okay here she is-our new thread!

 

ekay03 - May 23

Okay, so I am pretty sure Creedence mighta flipped breech yesterday. I was sitting at my desk and I was talking to a coworker and there was this movement (on her behalf) that actually was huge and hurt. And then last night, I was feeling her movement on the opposite side of my belly at the bottom, whereas before it was the top. And then while driving to work there was this hard thing (which I believe to be her noggin) that kept jutting up from the top of my tummy. Now, it is very possible I am freaking myself out, but it just seems too odd to me. I know she has time to right herself, but I get paranoid because my sister's last baby was flipping at like 37, 38 weeks. Breech is a big fear for me. Anyways, I posted my 29 week pic on myspace and still not much bigger than 25 and 26 weeks. She's feels like she's getting bigger though, so I guess that's what matters. Plus my fundus is d__n near to my ribs. Yup, deep, cavernous, pelvis....that's what I'm sticking too. How's everyone's Friday thus far? Oh yeah, Alicia, sweet dear Alicia, RELAX pumpkin! Your level is 22, which is under 25, which is good. Don't make me block google from your computer. Google is the devil in disguise to pregnant women......;-)

Good morning ladies!! Erin - I am sure if she did flip that she will flip back before she needs too. When I had the 4d and the tech told me that she was headdown but burried in my hip bone and kind of laying traverse across my stomach, I asked if she would stay that way,a nd she said for the next month or so they tend to flip around alot because they are running out of room to stretch out and want to keep moving. Sounded like it made sense,but I am a newbie at all of this so I am not sure. I try really hard to figure out where she in in there by trying to feel her, but I have no luck. I can't feel her or her parts really and going by the movements, I would say she has four arms and four legs as she seems to hit every inch of my tummy! What where your experiences with your other babies??

But Erin what do you expect from me... You guys should know that I already freak out at these things. I do feel better about it today and have tried to keep it off my mind. And I am trying to not google it anymore.... SOme of the stuff I was reading seemed like it was for very high levels... My doc said that some woman get up to 40-50 and I am only 22. Let's just hope I go down some more next apt June 5th. PLUS which I failed to mantion. The u/s tech is a b*tch and she tries to freak me out and say things like theres nothing you can do and isn't very nice about it... Just not compashinate (sp) if ya'll know what I mean. I'm just glad Jeremy was with me for this appointment. Becuase I could feel my lip quevering (sp) when she came in and sat down which she usually doesn't to talk to us. I just ahve too much stress for this shizz... But on a lighter note I am so exicted for my 3 day weekend... I hope you guys are too... Erin- I sure hope she moves now before it is too late too... Mason so far has always been head down and I can only pray he stays that way... BUt i did get another 3D pic of him which is on myspace. He is holding his arm up like someone who protest ot something... Kinda like "i'm okay mom.... don't worry". LOL. If, babies could do that kinda stuff....lol. and I get to see him in another 2 weeks....

Something is going on with her because something is making me uncomfortable, which I haven't been at all so far. I can barely breath. Maybe she just went through a huge growth spurt. I know what you are saying though bout the 4 arms and 4 legs. It really keeps you guessing. With my other babies, Josephine was by far the most active. I was like 9 months pregnant, when they are supposed to slow in their movements and I swear that kid was just going crazy in there. She hasn't stopped moving since then! :-)

 

ekay03 - May 23

I'm very happy to hear you are relaxing. I hate docs/techs/nurses that have that awful bedside manner. That's why I switched back to my old doc this time. What is the saying from Bad Boys II "woosfraba"....C has been head down too, and I'm not even positive she flipped, but it just feels different. All 3 day weekend means to me is a longer amount of time to entertain 3 children. HOPEFULLY my husband will come home though. I will be spending most of it finishing the cleaning on my old house. That's the worst part about moving. What fun do ya'll have planned?

 

mommaminchey - May 23

Nope no plans here. Just sit at home..... fun fun....lol

 

cnasmom - May 23

ekay03 - May 23

softbreeze200 - May 26

Good morning ladies!! Oh.. I forgot you guys are all on a three day weekend... so I may be solo on here today!! :) I hoep you all had a great weekend! Hubby got home this weekend which was awsome and he will FINALLY Be done on friday and home until after babe arrives!! Very excited. We have never had a summer to spend together, so it will be great! I am going on Mat leave at the end of June too so we will have the month of July off together to just hang out until she shows! :) One more week - off to NY!! Gabby- how is your weather looking down there??? I am hoping it is going to be nice while we are there. I ahve never been and am really looking forward to it. Much much bigger than my town of 600 people where I live!! Sweatpea finnaly put on a show of kicks and moves for hubby last night before he went back to work. He actually got to see her shake my belly side to side and got to feel her too! Usually she stops as soon as he tries to feel! He was very excited!! So my c___ppy news is that I ordered my car seat at babies'r'us on friday and the girl suggested that we just go and try it in the car jsut so I can see hwo to unlatch it properly adn how to make sure I have it in there secure - and uh.. my $150 car seat expense just turned in a new car expense!! There is no way that a infant seat will fit into my car. Ugh.. so now I ahve to get a new car. I have a three door saturn which I love and it is sooo good on gas, I don't want ot get rid of it, and I don't have any payments on it. I dont want to have a car payment while on Mat leave. It was not in my budget.. Ahhhhh... Frusterated. And I need to organize it while I am still working so if I do need financing I have a job to qualify for it. :(

I almost pa__sed out from hunger and felt sooo sick - 3 blood tests in over 2 hours - not pleasant but all done now - fingers crossed it all comes back okay! Speak soon - take care - xx :)

 

ekay03 - May 27

Morning ladies!!! I missed ya'll! Poor Patty, all by her lonesome. If it makes you feel any better iron and belly, I plan on working until August 1st and I'm due August 8th. But I'm gonna tell my boss NO FAR AWAY HOUSES TO MEASURE!!! My hospital is 30 minutes away as it is. Iron, my legs get restless too! I haven't had the problem as much recently as I did a few weeks ago, but I literally flop all over my bed trying to find a comfortable position. So I feel your pain my friend. Well, hubby was supposed to come home on Saturday evening and he called Saturday afternoon saying they wanted him offshore. I was so sad, and he was like I can tell them no. I feel a bit bad because he really wanted to come home (and don't get me wrong I REALLY wanted him to come home) but he was going to get double time on Sunday and Monday due to the holiday at offshore pay, which is really worth it. So I kinda 'made' him go. I felt horrible, because I was like, I really want to see you, but we REALLY need the money. Anyways, he's still out there. Did ya'll do anything cool for Memorial Day. I just ate and watched the kiddos swim. I was so cranky and lazy yesterday. I felt so guilty for some reason laying in bed and watching Beach Patrol, but it was so nice. I have a problem-and Alicia, I'm sure you will understand me. I CANNOT stop worrying about Creedence. I bet I checked her heartbeat 5 times yesterday. I know it sounds silly but I think I am a__sociating my smaller belly with there being something wrong. I can't help it. Plus it doesn't help when people are like "It's probably just a small baby". Cause in my head I think 'But I don't have small babies. I have big healthy babies.....what if she is small, what if she's not growing right' etc., etc., etc. I am certainly not ready for a newborn, but a huge part of me wishes it was August already so I could at least see her and know if she's okay or not.

 

softbreeze200 - May 27

Morning ladies! That is really c___ppyt o hear that you guys are feeling so yucky now after so long of feeling good. The heartburn has stuck with me through thick and thina nd the only relief I ahve found is tums. I make sure to eat one or two before I eat and then again after and try not to drink anything while eating, otherwise it all seems to want to bubble back up. Gross. Otherwise I am actually really enjoying this part of the pregnancy. I have had such rotten all day sickness for so much of it so far, now I feel really good. Although Ironmomma I couldn't imagine chasing after a 6 year old like you do or three others like Erin does. You gals are super women!! I too will work up till a month before she is due to arrive.It shouldn't be too bad, if I stay feeling the way I do. :)

 

softbreeze200 - May 27

Erin - That is really really c___ppy about hubby. I know how much it can really wreck your mood when plans change like that. You know, as far as the small baby thing goes, I can totally relate. Everyone I see keeps saying - WOW are you ever little, you sure aren't showing much, you rbelly hasn't grown in months. I am really starting to worry too that she is not growing like she should. I mean I did see her on the 4d, and she looked liek she had good chubby cheeks, but how come I am not as big as I think I should be for 30w?? I too have been checking with the doppler lots and I find it harder to locate her heartbeat now than ever before. You finding this too?? Or maybe we really do have cavernous pelvis's that they are hiding in. I know she likes to stay way way low and everyonce in a while she will streatcha limb up under the ribs, but maybe she appears smaller because she is so low. You said Creedance was hanging out low too right? I am going to ask my dr. tomorrow and see what she thinks.

 

mommaminchey - May 27

Of course I can understand Erin. I just wish it was Aug so i could get him out and make sure everything is okay. I am hoping the doctor calls today with my blood test from thursday. I feel like I have water in my lungs. Its very hard to breathe and I just feel like there is a huge weight on my chest. But I am not sick and otherwise feel fine... I had the worst scare this sunday. We had family over for a cookout and after they left my little brother decided he would use the pool cover to make a slip n slide. So the covered this one side of a hill and I sat in a chair and watered it down as they slide. well my mom decided she was going to do it and on the 3rd time she lost her footing and feel and hit her head. She didn't move so I ran over to her and she was unconscience (sp) and I totally freaked and my little brother came over and was freaking out. Cause when you lose one parent the possibility of lossing another is just a tremedous feeling. He started crying and yelling for her to wake up. She finally woke up from what seemed like 30 min which was really maybe 30 sec. So jeremy rode the 4wheeler next door to get our neighbor who is a nurse and she came over. My mom is in limbo w/ the ins since my lovely grandfather canceled her and my brother so it was just a huge mess. And she is okay now but sunday I was an emotional wreck. My mom has never hurt herself in the 23 yrs i have been alive and I just felt so helpless... Gosh it was sad... anyways. had to share cuz all night I was worrie di would go into false labor or something bcuz of all the stress.
