Pregnancy Info HOME

Good morning soon to be delivering mommmies!!! We are on the home stretch and I for one am so excited......well another sleepless night and I had the air condiitioning blaring almost to the point of being cold .....LOL but it was great - I have to confess part of the reason I am stressing is that I am worried about finances again! I found out that my disability pay is going to be 50.00 a week and I was like WTF - well since they go back 18 months to determine your pay I was only at the temp agency 3 of the months making 600.00 dollars so they pay about 1/2 of that so they have decided my benefit is only 300.00 I was so bummed out i have never made so little while of baby leave but oh well...plus Cor's job is slowing down and it's just nerve wracking....he did get a call about a job he applied on line for so we'll see - it's 70% travel and less money but with travel pay etc it might work out better for us we will have to see.....I am just so sick of feeling stressed about money...but what can I do? I cant' poop money..right?? LOLOL....I am excited for the baby to get here so I can be distracted - the only time I am really tormented is at night.....ok girls - I know we are all ready and I thought for sure KENDRA you would have gone by now....LOL .....my friend from NYC arrived last night and she just asked me if I thought I would really make it to Wednesday and I said ummm yeah it's already Monday....LOL so there's a good chance I will last until Wednesday I am pretty relaxed about it - we are going to head upstairs and finish the baby's room and get the toys outta there......I'll check in again later and HILLARY I agree with Kendra - just wait I know that Walmart is usually pretty cool about letting you exchange for different sizes so.....you can wait a bit ......my son was huge that he went to size 1 right away and stayed there a bit then was in size 2 for a long time.....so just play it by ear....KOLLEEN please keep us posted!!! We want all the details when Lylee gets here.

wow i thought it was morning omg! where have i been its 130!! well ladies this must be tmi.. but i try to shave and i guess thats where my whole morning went today! believe me its hard.. but my DH kept complaining and saying arent u gonna be embra__s n u gotta do it blah blah.. so i woke up n im like screw it ima try.. well lol its half way complete..and i have a doc appointment this wed. so if i dont get this done i WILL be embra__s.. but anyways ive been having lots of pressure no contractions.. BUT!!! i did wanna tell you guys.. well kinda ask.. im throwing off clear and whitish liquid.. is dat normal?? im going to tell my doc this wed. because my SIL says she had the same thing. but is anyone experiencing this????

kollen where are you i want to know how you are feeling i mean tomorrow is the day!! Tina aren't you gettin induce tomorrow too or wed????

This second pregnancy is CRAZY. Is anyone else nauseaus???? I'm also having contractions...like the ones that I had during REAL labor with my first -- but nothing. I was up for about 3 hours with those and they hurt so bad they made me cry, I turned the TV on and Knocked up was on, and that made me cry on top of my contractions. STEF, you cracked me up with the valium story. Made me wonder... I think we just all want our babies to be here already AND IT'S STILL JUNE, hahaha. This has been the longest month ever. TINA, you made me laugh so hard with the "beached whale" comment, because that's what my hubby said the other day. He kept wanting to go to the community pool, but I didn't want to get out of the house and told him to fill up the kiddie pool and to just get in there with Sasha, and he said "yeah, and lay on my side like a beached whale"??

Sorry eveyone... im here and still pregnant.... but not for long. my dr just called they cant get me in tomorrow....BUT wednesday at 5am i go in. no questions asked. i just go in and they start the induction at 7!!!!!! ok now im freaking out!!!! i rememeber when i was induced with my son and how fast the pitocin kicked in. they stuff aint no joke. my dr says he thinks ill deliver between 1 and 4 in the afternoon. thats a pretty quick labor i think. they say i cant drink or eat anyhthing after 10 pm tuesday night, so of course im gonna be dying of thirst huh??? ok this is really happening. im going to meet my baby girl in two days!!!! so who is it that is also being induced on wednesday i cant remember?

Elena, love the beached whale comment, lol! I have given up going down the pool now just because it's so d__n hot and everyone stares! KOLLEEN, awesome news! TINA is going to be induced Wednesday too so two of us will have their little ones in about 48 hours!!!!!!! Are you girls ready? Oh, and Elena, I wish I could say I'm having anything remotely painful contraction wise at this point, but all i have are lots of BH contractions and they aren't painful. Everyday I have at least 2 people tell me that since this is my first I will probably go past my due date because everyone they know did, blah blah blah.....it's just frustrating. My mom had me 2 weeks early and I was her first so I guess I kept hoping I'd do the same, but doesn't seem like it ;) I think it's normal for all of us to get a bit antsy at this point even though it is still june because at this point we've all done everything to get ready so there's not much to wait for other than the baby's arrival. I keep trying to think of stuff to get ready and realize it's all set up and ready to go. I noticed this morning that the ba__sinet has dust on it! LOL, I have to wash everything on it again and probably the same for the crib because just in the 2 or 3 weeks since I set it all up dust has taken over. Where does it all come from I ask???? I clean ALL the time! sheesh.

I just want to ask if any one is experiancing white/clear discharge??

Julia, yes I've had white/clear discharge the whole pregnancy. There is more of it at the end too and that is normal.

JULIA - that is normal this late in the game it's called leukhorria or something like that it's in the what to expect book....girl I was cracking up at your shaving story - I don't shave my dh has to do it for me and he's been getting the clippers out and getting it nice and close so I am happy about that.....STEF - I noticed dust all over the tray on the swing - I haven't washed my crib bedding yet because it almost seems too small and that maybe I should exchange the set I have for the set you have....it's frustrating.....oh well.....seems like with my boys the bedding was a smidge too big and now that stuff is a smidge too small and too big is easier to deal with.....anyways...yes KOLLEEN - I go in to be induced Wednesday night it's funny that you get to go in the morning you are so lucky.....they want to give me 12 hours of cervadil first then pitocin plus I have the c-section looming over my head which is making me nervous....but not too nervous I am trying to relax...ELENA - i was so happy playing that beached whale...LOL it was so refreshing....I can't believe I will have my baby in 2 days or 3 is shes born Thursday I can't wait I am so excited.....ok girls I'll check in later hope everyone has a great rest of the day.

TINA- i must have missed something, why are you possibly having a c-section. im so excited!!!

precious how much discharge? tonite i got off in i live about 5 minutes from there; wehn i got home i went pee && all cuz my undies felt wet; well sure enough there was whitish creamish discharge enough to make u tihnk you peed yourself two of my friends said that happend within 6 hrs of going to l & d so who knows maybe ill have a baby soona fter all. my sister in law came over n was like the skys cloudy n things dont look great so i bet you have him like tonite or tomorrow haha. its funny to listen to predictions huh

KENDRA -- I've had that crazy discharge the whole pregnancy, it's this milky color and there's so much of it, but in the past two weeks there were a couple of times where it gushed out of me and I seriously thought that my water broke, only to be dissapointed by the stupid discharge, hahah. STEF, I think I would've gone over with my daughter, but my dr. did a membrane sweep and I went into labor the next day, so I ended up having her on my due date. And I didn't have any painful conractions either, until I actually went into labor -- so it was very easy for me to know that that was it, because it hurt as hell. But now it's a different story...that's why I was saying that the second/subsequent pregnancy is crazy. Poor Kendra's been battling contractions forever now. I'm a little OCD on the cleaning also, especially now that the nesting instinct set in, so all day I keep noticing little baby dust pieces and other stuff not noticeable to a normal person. I HATE dust.

TINA I just realized how soon you're going to have your little one!!! That's very exciting, can't wait to hear the birth story, hope you have an easy one. Are you getting an epidural? I'm going to try to go without, since last time it only caused problems and kept me from hurting for about an hour :( I'm just afraid the same will happen this time...transition was hell...

TINA- ur in california right? well im not able to take my laptop with me to let you guys know that i had her and i thought one of you guys gave out your phone number to be texted, is that still avalible to me?

omfg im jealous kolleen will be 2nd mommi---tina will be 3rd (unless one of us go between u two; but i dont see that happening) who will be 4th ?OMFG i cant believe we are so freaking close to having our babies

Hey girls, well we had s_x last night and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, lol BUT, nothing happened -- so much for that. I know it's not an instant thing, but I think if it were to help me along I'd have felt something by now. Oh well! I need to relax more i think. Well, tomorrow is the big day for inductions! KOLLEEN, Tina might be able to email you with her cell number -- I think she posted it on this thread a while back.
