I guess I have never even told you guys my name... it's Sarah and I can't seem to keep track of all of your names either... so maybe we can reintroduce ourselves again! I too am on myspace. /sarahtollett is my handle. Anyways, CNAS, my midwife told me that being in the water helps tremendously with circulation!! The weightlessness helps the blood get moving a little more! So she said... do it whenever you can! I even put my feet in there when im cleaning my pool. I have steps and little seats in 2 corners, so I stand in the water when cleaning, so i can feel the lightness of my feet! It's glorious! As far as maternity leave here, I get 12 weeks guaranteed for my position, but that comes with $0 for pay! Yuck, but we have just been saving $$ along the way! Believe it or not we have set aside $ every week of this pregnancy and that adds up! And we have put extra money in there as well! My goal is to be able to pay the mortgage for 3 months with that money, so everything else my hubby makes and we have in the bank will take care of all other things! Hopefully it works! The nice thing about my job is that i can go back into work slowly due to working from home (traveling a lot though) and making my own schedule! I, however, do not get paid unless I am actually out of the house with clients so it's not like I can just sit home and rake in the dough! Anyways, 34 weeks today! Have a great Tuesday!

hey, have any of you all been having problems with your hands going to sleep??? mine are awful, when i drive, when i sleep. at night, i sleep the same way all the time, just flip sides, but around 4 am my hands go to sleep and get really stiff. oh it is sooo annoying...and they are really stiff when i wake up too. i can't fall back asleep cuz of my hands, anywhere i put them they fall asleep.

Kitkat I got a few numbers last night but I think there maybe a chance a few of us go early... And sarah my name is Alicia and I live in TN. We are having a boy named Mason. My myspace is ridin23s. I will try and find you tonight. I am getting so bummed girls. My numbers was high on sat for dinner so i called the doc and she said I should of ate a bun with my hotdog instead of plain but I thought I was doing better not eating one. So last night I was like I'll have a hot dog ( its one of my cravings) and so i ate it with the bun and it was STILL high. I am getting very dicouraged and started to cry in bed last night. I told Jeremy he has to go with me Thursday because I know I will start to cry in there.... I just can't stand to go to the doc anymore. i am so worried they are going to add something to my pregnancy list of things wrong. I am thinking now I may never go through this again... Its done a wonder for my nerves....lol

 

cnasmom - June 24

aww alicia, don't cry, my mom had GD with her last 3 pregnancies and they are all healthy and great. my last brother is 4 now, and he came at 35 wks adn he weighed 6 Lbs 11 oz!!! so it just can make them big. and he was healthy enough he didn't have to stay at the hospital either! don't stress too much, its all worth it in the end.

 

mommaminchey - June 24

I know I shouldn't but I feel so much pressure. Because he is growing in me. So its my responsibility. My mom had GD with my lil bro and he came just fine too. I just think some of the new technology they have can scare the living c___p out of someone... Danielle I got your text and I will for sure save ya!

 

cnasmom - June 24

lordy lordy, my MIL wants us to come down during my husbands shutdown at work. which is 2 wks away!!! ill be almost 37 wks!

 

cnasmom - June 24

oh she lives in Murfreesboro, TN, i know u know where that is alicia! i live in north central ky! its a 4 hour drive....

 

mommaminchey - June 24

Oh yea I know where that is and if you do come down I will meet you for dinner. Its about an hour drive from my house but thats my husbands college town and I am sure he will be happy to go... Let me know what you guys do!!!!!

 

cnasmom - June 24

i will, i am just scared to go that far away from home that pregnant! i had my lil boy at 36 wks 6 days. but my lil girl was 6 days late. so who knows. ill just wait and see what the doc says.

 

mommaminchey - June 24

I don't blame you for not wanting to drive that far and be 37 weeks preggo. I wouldn't be then again I am a super sissy....lol

 

cnasmom - June 24

and my mom might shoot me if i had the baby in another state 4 hours away, adn she couldn't get there. my last one came super super fast, within 4 hours of my water breaking, lol. and no contractions before that!!!! yeesh. thats why doc was maybe gonna schedule me an induction date. so i don't have her in the car.

Alicia, okay get real close to your computer now....closer....okay that's good, here's a big ol' hug for you! (Yeah, I stole your idea.) It makes me so sad that your being so hard on yourself. It's okay-you are doing the best by Mason for even attempting to stick to your diet and even worrying. It's a sign already that your gonna be a good momma. A good MommaMinchey. Patti, I'm glad you're gonna check in. I would be a nervous wreck if I didn't know what was going on with ya'll maternity-leavers. I seriously thought I was gonna reinact a scene from Species this morning. I was sure my stomach was gonna bust open and a critter was gonna fly onto my windsheild with as much as Creedence was moving. I am so surprised at how easy it is for me to crash lately. I usually lay in bed and watch TV for a few minutes before bed and I turned on the TV and was O-U-T! Course I still woke a billion times to pee. I often wonder where it comes from because I don't drink much before bed. Danielle that sucks about your trip, that is getting a tad too close for comfort to your DD. This weekend me and the kids might go to Houston, but it's my cut off point. I won't drive out of town after this weekend by myself.

Morning ladies!! Sarah my name is Patti and I live in Sask, Canada and we are having a little girl - name undetermined as of yet!! My mspace is softbreeze200. Alicia, I didn't get on there last night but I will here in the next few days and do the cell swap as well!! Try no to get to frusterated with your diet. Maybe ask your dr for a better detailed outline, not just how many startches, sugars etc. Maybe more like one steak, one hot dog -with bun, one juice. I don't know if they do those, but it may make it easier. I can fully understand your worry with providing Mason with the best you can, but try not to stress too much. I am sure he is a happy little camper in there and doing just fine!! :)

I too Danielle am having an issue with the whole travelling thing coming up. My brother just flew in from Hawaii to work right up near our cabin for the month of July at an airbase there and his wife is coming out on the 13th of july till the 1st of Aug, then they head home. Well he is pushing me that they really want to spend time with me and hubby and that they want me to go to the cabin once she arrives, but at that point I will be 38 weeks pregnant and it is about 5 hours away and if I go into labour there, the hospital is a rinky dinky small town one and I don't want to deliver there. I want to be here at home and where my dr will be. He seems to be ticked about it. I told him to take a week and come down to see us here once he is done work. We have a lake and a cabin here too, so they can do all the same stuff. Feels like he think s I am being selfish, but I think I am going stay stubborn on this one. I don't imagine she willcome early, BUT if she does, I want to be ready. Does that sound reasonable to you guys?? Or am I being selfish??
