Pregnancy Info HOME

stef- i was at l & d at 230am my time till8am i am dilated to 3cms having constant contractions but its not making me dilate im more prone to infection so they suggested wlaking to get me going; they are getting stronger so hopefully i will be in full labor & done. once i get to 4 cms they cant do anything i will be in active labor at that point= only if i could get there im in so much pain, ill keep you ladies posted

KENDRA!!!! OMG! You go girl! Lookin like you'll be our 2nd momma on here!!! I'm so sorry this is so drawn out for you making the pain worse, but I hope once you are in active labor they can get you in (do you go back to the hospital soon?) and things will progress faster. I can't remember if you were or weren't going to get an epi? Good luck sweetie!!!!! i'm so excited for you and can't wait to see pics of little Strad! :)

KENDRA- hey girl......how did the walking work out for you??? So glad you checked in with us! Charli I can't believe you guys are going to be going so quickly ? Just goes to show you how crazy life is huh? Ok I feel c___ppy tonight- I went to the movies and lunch with a friend and now I feel cranky and nauseous.....I tried to take nap and that only made me feel worse.....Cor isn't home funny how he asked me to pick the boys up on my way home and now he's been MIA for almost 4 hours ---GGGGRRRRR - ok well I am just going to chill on the couch and watch some baby stories. More later girls

I'm guessing maybe Kendra is at the hospital? TINA, I feel the same way after having Taco Bell a bit ago (I emailed you too). Ugh, it's looking like couch time here as well.

ghost town I tell ya, lol....ok just thought I'd check in but it looks quiet so I'll probably just be on tomorrow!

Oh! question....when are we considered "full term"? 36 weeks or 37 weeks? I've heard both so I'm not sure which is right.

KENDRA I hope you get admitted because things have progressed! I am so excited for you .....STEF - I think 37 weeks is considered full term but then on some of the other threads here girls have been getting amnios to check lung maturity but I am not sure at how many weeks....so????? I know it's scary to think about bing sent home when you are in actual labor but express your concerns to your doctor - you can always make them not your chart that they are sending you home under your extreme protest - not sure what that does but something - at least if it's noted it might make them less in a hurry to send you home ....lol.....I still feel yucky today I got up at 5am my youngest had a bad dream and woke me and the dogs up so we just came downstairs where i snoozed on the couch but it killed back back and hips ......so once Cor got up we lounged and then went to lunch got home and I slept 2 and half hours I woke up feeling pretty good - Cor thought a shot of p___scillin would help my back but it really didn't ....LOL sorry tmi...LOL now my lower back is killing me even more....but it was fun while it lasted......it's almost 8 my time and i am not one bit sleepy because of my nap.......

OMG girls there is some idiot on the discomfort thread who is having some pain so she wants to try to induce herself at 25 weeks - you know I normally just ignore those people but give me a break - I told her to suck it up and take a bath and some tylenol and get over it.....dude 25 weeks - she must be 15 years old or something ARRGGHHH that just really irritated me! ok sorry had to vent

Hey girls nothing new yet...I have a doctor's appointment on Friday and they are going to check if Im dialated or enfaced and all that stuff..I hope I have Brooklynn soon because Im in so much pain lately. My Grandmother that I live with right now was an Ob Nurse and says that she is almost possitive I will have her in the next 2 weeks or so...Hopefully!! Im so ready to not be pregnant anymore..Im so clumsy now. The other day I was at the car wash with my gma and I slipped on some water my gma freaked out cuz I fell on my b___t, all I did was sc___pe my knee but now it seems like Im having more pain. It sucks. But I know I still have some time to wait because I havent lost my mucus plug...or had that show thing or whatever...Im not to sure about this part of the pregnancy. Im getting really scared of it all. Especially because Im in so much pain now, I can only imagine what labor is going to be like. =( thats the real scary part. I can't believe we only have a little over a month left till our due dates! It seems like only a few weeks ago I found out I was pregnant. Well Kendra I hope you progress some more today!!

still no baby; im in so much flipping pain its not even funny. contractions are 2 minutes apart but they arent making me dilate so they wont keep me. =[ a__s's i swear to fliipping GOD. i had s_x; oh yah i lost my mucus plug (i lost that with kelsey then 3 days later went into labor) lets pray this all does soemthing im in pain so flipping bad its not even funny i hate it im ready to cry my heart out

Oh Kendra...I'm sorry this is just going on and on for you! I can't imagine that it could go on for much longer though. CHARLI I have a dr's appt. Friday too! It seems that several of us see the doc this week. How exciting! Well, I started to post this morning and my computer had to restart so I lost it and now I've got to jump into a bunch of work.I'll check back in a bit...

Good morning ladies.. Kendra i feel awful for you that your in pain everyday. Hopefully soon you will start dialating more. Maybe your body is ready but baby is not :(

Girls I am going to start a new thread - I'll respond there.....
