Morning!! It sucks i never get to come on here anymore bc ive been soooo busy at work. But I hope everything is going good with everyone! Ive been getting really worried about her movements as usual.i called my doctor almost everyday last week. I know shes just not moving as much as she used to, but my doctor seems to think its okay. (ive told her about how often i feel her and my kick count results, etc...) i dont want to go in to the hospital for no reason (cause who knows how much a NST will cost me), but at the same time, im sooo tired about worrying about it. How often should I notice her move throughout the day?? We painted the nursery last night!! Its almost all the way done, all we have left is the decor stuff. (lamps, rug, pics, etc..) Other than that Im so excited. I only have 4 weeks of work left and then a short 2 or 3 weeks later she will be here!! YAY!

Erin I hear ya. Lets go get in opur beds and take a nap. I feel like c___pola today. I have already ate all my lunch besides my sandwich so now I have to go get something... Maybe the drive will wake me up. Yes we had to out our dog down. The neighbor dog lived. It was really sad. Plus my moms cat is 19yrs old and she doesn't have too many more days ahead of her and it just really weighs on my Mom and I can't stand to see her sad. I hope your bp gets better. Those numbers aren't too good. OMG I just looked down at my feet and they are huge. I don't know whats wrong with them. they r never like this in the mornings... I ahve been laying in the recliner with wet rags on my feet and that seems to help too. Oh and FYI the new meds ahve my numbers right on track. I even ate way too much stuff Friday at cracker barrel and was sure my #'s would be high and I think it was 98!!! I wa slike heck yes give me another biscuit... LOL.

Oh Patti, you DO love us still! I would DIE without A/C. I guess ya'll don't need it too much up there, huh? I would pull the pregnant card, or if I were you, I'd drive my swollen little legs over to some body of water, whether pool, lake or river. Beth, I wouldn't worry about the movements as long as there is some sort of movement. Creedence still has her slower moments and even days, but I still feel her, so I try not to fret. Alicia, what kind of dog was Lexus? That is so sad-here's a hug for you love. I still feel like c___p. I'm gonna go home and lay down. That is a benefit of my job, even though I'm gonna have to bust a__s tomorrow to catch up. I just feel weak and drained and my noggin hurts. I'll probably be back after my nappy-poo. Smooches.

Oh Alicia - that is terrible news about your dog. I am sorry to hear that happened. Lets hope that the kitty hangs on there for a while longer yet. Are both your feet swollen about the same?? If you notice that one gets much more than the other, check in with the doc. My doc told me that one beinga bit bigger is alright, but any major major difeerences need to be checked out. MY left is always a bit more than my right, but it always stays about the same diffeerence. Eliz - great to hear from you!! I am sure the movement is good. They are supposed to slow quiet a bit I think due to running out of room, but maybe just give your dr a call and give them the numbers from your kick counts and see what they say. Glad to hear the nursery is getting ready!! Can you believe that there will actually be little ones in our nursery's soo soon?? I can't wait to meet her!!

Lol!! Erin - I told you guys that I wouldn't leave ya!! I need my mommies!! We don't usually need the a/c for more than June to sept, but this year it is supposed to reach obsene temps all summer, so hubby is going to bring the fifth wheel in to town and park it in the driveway. It has a/c, so at least I can go sleep in there and try to get some rest.

 

mommaminchey - June 30

Patti- I couldn't do 100 without a/c. Its only 80's here today. I would hope your hubby takes you to the lake. And eliz- I wouldn't worry either. Mason does it to me sometimes but just when i am like okay when was his last movement,... he moves. Erin- she was a huskie/ german shepard/ lab mix. Her and her brother adopted us about 11-12 yrs ago and her brother was a big dog (175lbs) but he was killed when lighting struck our a/c unit and it traveled underground to where he was laying in the bushes not far from the unit. That was about 2 yrs ago then my moms cat Tom 17yrs old died the same month. So we have lost 3 pets in 2 yrs. and those were the first we have ever lost. So it's hard. But she was very shy and she would barely let me touch her. so its just wierd.

 

elizhope - June 30

Thanks for the rea__surances ladies. I do feel her everyday, it just has gone down ALOT so i worry. When it was strong movements most of the day to just light movements 2 or 3 times a day, I worry. But my doctor says its fine, so i will try to relax. Patti, I dont know how you survive without A/C!! Here in texas I think we would all melt! Erin, that sucks how tired you are..naps are the best remedy though! I havent gotten too tired yet (well except from being kept awake by the neighbors yappy dog all of a sudden!)

 

softbreeze200 - June 30

Well hubby went golfing, so Trigger (my dog) and I are going to go outside and set up our little pool in the backyard adn get it filled!! It will be needed this week!! Then we can go sit in it and cool off!! SO I will check back in with you later when I need to get my fat piggies up in the air. Hope you all have a good morning!! Oh Alicia - I finally posted my cell on your myspace message. Sorry I took so long to get that done! Now I have all of yours too - can't wait to start getting text messages!!:) :)

 

mommaminchey - June 30

More like waddle my fat behind to the shallow and slowly submerge this tank....lol And I will send everyone Patti's number tonight. i think I left off Gabbi's number from the list so I will send that too!

 

cnasmom - June 30

ahhh, im home.... i am sooooo sleepy. i got sick from not eating lunch so i stopped at DQ lol. i am just worried about what my test shows up tomorrow. i hope its ok, i honestly have never been that close to pa__sing out before, ever. its nice here today upper 70s. sunny. but im too tired to enjoy it. well i am gonna lay down. my feet dont even go down when i lay down at night, they are still swollen in the morning. and my hands are jut a little swollen but they stay so stiff adn go to sleep so easy. especially the right side. that right foot is more swollen too. kinda strange.

Hey ladies, I'm an august mommy too. Due the 3rd. I have 2 children ages 3 and 21 months and i do read everything you write i just never post anything myself. But today and last night were so horrible i must vent. My DH and kids all have a stomache flu. so i have been scrubbing vomit all night. I finally fell asleep at 2 and woke up a 6. started laundry because everything is vomitted on.YUCK! i do not feel like cooking. Sorry girls i just needed to get this out.

 

mommaminchey - June 30

Lilybug honey you are fine... Just let it out. sometimes you may think we wont to choke our family or on the edge of a break down so just let it out. I would ahte to be in your house right now. Just make sure you don't get sick... that would be awful. And I have a weak stomach. Idk how I will ever deal with my children throwing up....lol

 

anamariaflorencia - June 30

Aww, I'm sorry to hear everyone is feeling bad/tired. I've been feeling great lately...like I'm not pregnant at all...and actually, more energetic then when I wasn't pregnant. I'm 33 weeks along, so a little behind some of you. Maybe that's why. Maybe in two weeks or so I'll be miserable like a lot of you are feeling. I was reading that some of you have had another sonogram. I didn't know we got another one. Do we or is that just for special cases like GD?

 

mommaminchey - June 30

anamariaflorencia- i have u/s every week now because of my GD. Most of the others don't. It is kinda up to the doc I think now. Erin I am not gonna do anything either. Jeremy wanted to go on the boat this weekend but I put a stop to that one real quick. It's just gonna be my family at home on the 4th. His mom is having the lap band surgery tomorrow so we will likely go see her friday. I go to the doc wed and I am thinking about taking a half day. I still haven't changed my drivers liscence yet..... LOL. or the bank account but thats on purpose.

 

mommaminchey - June 30

*** erin is on her way to the ER. Her pulse isn't any better and they want her to come in****

 

bellybubble - June 30

Morning all you gorgeous August Mummies! Firstly I hope Erin is ok - keep us updated! Yes it does appear to be the day to feel a bit tired and run down - I reckon I wee'd about 7 times last night! Sometimes I just feel like taking a pillow intot he toilet and staying there haha. Well 34 weeks and 3 days and counting now hee hee - I finish up work not this Friday but next Friday and am very much looking forward to that!! I got the book Labour of Love and have started reading it trying to prepare myself for birth (dont know if I am going natural or not - gonna play it by ear) but it is so far a good read - very positive which has got to help surely! :) I hope you are all doing well - I wish I could have another U/S - havent seen my bubble since about wk 20 but they have no plans to do another one at all? Is this normal? xx
