Pregnancy Info HOME

Yeah my next appt is april 2nd. They said that they like to monitor the pregnancy more closely the further along you get. There was a different doctor at the office today though and she was really wierd. I was glad that she wasn't going to be delivering me. She was talking super slow and every question that I asked she would like drag out the answer for like 10 minutes. I was like Ok can we just get on with this. I almost didn't want to ask her any more questions but I knew if I didn't ask I'd be mad at myself. I called out of work today too. So I'm trying to get stuff together for Easter since we're having it at my house. It's a few days away and I'm alraedy stressed.

hey there preggies!!! Sorry I've been mia! I've been sick!!yes, I was going to linger in the second trimester board for a little while longer but EVERYONE moved...so I'm here now!:-P I'm 25 weeks and 4 days today. Whoopie! Lol... I'll be happier when I get to 28 weeks so that lil Dante will have a better chance of survival. With all thats happened with our friends (Jess and Shopping), I'm ultra paranoid now. I fell down ONE steep stair last night and I'm freaking out about placental abruption. I caught myself and didn't hit my belly, but I jerked it pretty well. Now I don't have any bleeding, but my stomach feels weird. The twinges are strange.and my uterus feels a little tender. But I've felt the baby kick and punch...twinges are just on one side though. Maybe i just pulled something. I called my docs office and I'm waiting for them to call me back to tell me I'm being paranoid and that I'm okay. DEB- please just rest and dont' strain at all! Glad to know your LO is still doing okay and that you aren't bleeding anymore. Thats really quite a relief in a way. Disko, sorry you're still sick! So am I! I took a half day on St. pattys Day and went home ot sleep, and took yesterday off as well. Good thing, bc my sister went into labor and had her baby at 3:30 pm after 13 hrs of labor. She had a 7lb girl, and didn't use an epidural at all! Even worse, they gave her pitocin! :-P Now everyones like, Okay Christie, you gotta try to do it without the epidural now! She didn't even tear! Wow...I hope I'm that lucky. My nephew was so cute when we brought him to see his sister. Hes almost three, but he was in a state of shock about it. I haven't gotten a chanve to hold her yet because I still have my cold...I dont' want to pa__s it to her. I went from having the sore itchy throat and nasal drip downt he back of my throat to congestion now and light coughing. Half my nose is plugged, and I already have difficulty breathing because of my tummy! lol..My glucose screen is next week. Yippee doo! Hope I pa__s! ...I've been eatinga lot of ice cream lately. Peanut b___ter panic from Blue Bunny and Rocky Road. YUMMM...I've missed you guys. I really hope I get a home computer soon. I can't wait for April to get here so I'll be in the "safe" zone if something goes wrong!!!

omg gabby your so funny!!! I know the type ur talking about it would be hilarious if they delivered their baby and the baby had blonde hair and blue eyes hahaha would totally clash with the parents ! Fefer and Ma I know I cant tell either lol - I only ONE time was sitting on the sofa kind of laying back and could clearly feel she was on the left side but which end is which...I have no clue - I think alot of the times i a__sume she is head down cause I feel like feet up high in my stomache like i feel her kicking there and then i feel little movements on the sides by my hips. I am going to cook eggplant parm for dinner since chas isnt home - she hates that stuff haha

Oh and I got the email I'm 29 weeks today .. 30 is right around the corner!!

yeaaaaaaa newlywed!!! congrats on the new baby !! how exciting! I had chastidy without an epidural and I will likely not get one this time either I dont like people messing with my spine and I dont like medication very much either.

Hey Newleywed, glad you decided to move on over. Where is Kay today? Gabby- i sometimes wish my doc would drag out his response to my questions. I am so hungry right now, what is or did everyone have for lunch?

I had McDonalds, the 2 cheeseburger meal supersized. I felt like a little piglet, but I won't get weighed for 2 more weeks so I figured I'd indulge. And Yes Dawn I got a Shamrock Shake, I got lucky they still had them today! I actually left the drs office and stopped at McD's and ate my entire meal before I reached my house which is only about 15 minutes away. I was thinking about stopping and getting a decaf iced coffee but I thought I should really not make a glutton of myself.

hahahhha thats nothing gabby~ I went to the grocery store and spent like 200 in one week haha between ben and jerrys ice cream,kit kat bars,olives which i love,rice krispiies so i can make krispie treats and so much more.. I am going to be SO catching up with the weight I lost haha - but you know what when i eat anything with sugar i get this horrendous like reflux or gas or something .so it stops me from over indulging actually stops me from eating for the rest of the night.

Hey fefer - try spinningbabies.com or it may be spinningbaby.com. It tells you how midwives figure out how the baby is laying. Sorry you guys are having such a hard time. My daughter's 'father' will do anything to try and get his child support from lying on his taxes to saying she lives with him to get extra money every month from the army. Some women should appreciate when the guy does it right and not try to be greedy. I could get more child support than I do, I just don't want it. LOL I bet you wish his ex was like that. newlywed - glad to see we finally kidnapped and hauled your over here :D UGH I had pitocin with my daughter, my first epidural wasn't placed right so it didn't work at all, and I got to 7cm before they were able to get somebody to come put it in.....I was just curled up in a ball crying. You can always see how your labor progresses and request and epidural whenever you want. I loved mine, wanted to kiss the doctor, and having it put in didn't bother me. My sister had pitocin with my first nephew and said it was hell, then went to have the next one completely natural and said it wasn't half as bad as the pitocin. haha gabby you're too funny! I hate waiting rooms. I go to an awesome hospital but it's in a bad area and sometimes I'll see girls in there I swear that are like 12 years old. EWW and omg I have to go through the ER to go up to labor and delivery and there are always the NASTIEST people there I mean like crackheads twitching and stuff LOL. Did you have an ultrasound today? Sorry marisol! I've just been kinda hanging out today. I got up this morning to take my medecine and just kinda layed around till noon drifting in and out. I spent a little time with my munchkin and hubby and here I am :) I called today and got my claim started for my disibility because I really don't think they're going to be sending me back to work and you get to file for anything that takes you off work more than a week. It was actually really, really easy and I'm incredibly thankful I didn't have to call and talk to my boss at all.....stupid heiffer. I'm still p__sed off about that. My hubby is about to go get my check for the THIRD time and I feel bad. I wouldn't even ask him to go through that again, he just offered and said what excuse can she give me now if other people have picked up their checks?

hey all - for those of you who remember my court battles, my husband finally got a ruling today. They were with us on the child support issue - but then said they were not going to enforce visitiation since his girls are nearly 15 and they want to respect the wishes of the kids. So can I ask why they even have custody in the first place? If a mom can do whatever th hell she wants and have no consequences is that legal? It's a bunch of BS if you ask me. I think the court system is so freaking screwed that I want to write a letter to that d__n judge. Isn't it in the best interest of the kids to have a relationship with BOTH parents and BOTH SIDES of the family???????????? I'm so p__sed right now...

hey fefer try going to this website h t t p : / /forum.freeadvice.com/ and post under child support, custody, and visitation. They usually give pretty good advice, even if it's not what you want to hear. They'll tell you what rights you have and what you can do, but be careful not to get emotional or express your feelings about the mother or they can get a little snotty. Most of them are lawyers, law students, court advisors, etc. but since it's the internet of course it gives them free reign to be a__ses if they want to and they'll often try to take the other side. If you're willing to take some minor verbal abuse you should be able to get some great info.

Anybody care to brainstorm on how we'll let eachother know when our babies are born and that we're ok? My phone doesn't have internet or email and I don't know if I can use my laptop to get online in the hospital. I'll be there a good 3 days since I'm having a csection and I always worry about my friends when they go into labor or in to be induced. My idea for myself was to have a friend of mine go post a comment on my myspace page that we were ok, when he's born, how much he weighs, etc. then if one of you notices to come relay the message till I can get back with pictures and details.

hey all! omg wow! i just got home from another looong day at the doctors office. this time it was a check up for crow. so they gave him the same old physical check and everything is great. then the nurse a__sistant told me that they would need a urine sample from him... to check for blood and protein in his urine.... i was like ... what??? i have never ever ever heard of a 3 year old getting a urine test for no reason! i told her 'good luck with that. if you can squeeze it out of his diaper! cuz he is not fully potty trained yet' she was like well okay then we wont do it. i was thinking to myself 'yeah right !! crow is not gonna go in that cup! i'm having a tough enough time getting him to just sit on his potty and i haven't got a drip out of him yet!!!' then they 'tried' to give him a hearing and vision test but he wasn't having any of that! he is too young for those kinds of tests. lame. so then they took us back to the room and gave him a tb test which he screamed then they gave him one combination shot. it was the dtp, polio & hep. so of course he screamed again. poor baby. after that i took him to get a happy meal and gave him a dose of tylenol and now he is taking a nap. i didn't even hear a peep out of him after i tucked him in! ahhh quiet. it's nice. omg.... so my MIL called us this morning and told us that her fiance (pop) was puking up blood last night and so she called 911 and he is supposed to be moving sometime today up to ICU. he has cancer and we don't really know what happened as of yet. freddie and my MIL will be going over to the hospital as soon as he gets put into a room. he has been there since 1:30 this morning and still no room. terrible. oh what a day! as far as my sinuses go.... same ol same ol...... ugh. misery. but yeah one of my friends got put on zithromax when she had the sinus problems but i haven't called the doctor yet... oh yeah and Heather - when i went to court for my 15 year old daughter the judge also told me that it was completely up to her as far as visitation goes since she is old enough to know what and whom she wants to be with and or visit. but he didn't show up to court so that may have some bearing on the case but she hasn't seen or talked to him in almost 2 years now... he doesn't call or try to contact her in any way whatsoever! he is a total self centered jerk! ok well i'm gonna enjoy the silence and lay down for a bit! ttyl

Thanks Kay - I will try that site. It sucks about visitation since we havent' seen them since they were 12 - and she gets away with it. Bunch of c___p. His ex just wants to control them and make them hate their dad who is AWESOME and would do anything for them. I think she throws away the letters he sends..tells them he doesnt' pay, etc.. it is sooo sooo sad. :(

Ok I just took that iron pill a couple hours ago along with my procardia and now I feel kinda sick to my stomach. Sorry about your mil's fiance disko, hope he gets better. Your little man had a rough day today huh? fefer- you never know what they tell them. My daughter's father would tell his soon to be 2nd ex wife that he sent her birthday and christmas presents and stuff, never has, never calls, never visits. I really don't have to deal with him though.

How sad that his ex does that. ohhh poor Crow, i hate taking my daughter to get her shots. KAY- thats a good idea, i don't have myspace, but im sure some of the girls here do, i'm just gonna have my cousin log in under my name here and let you guys know. i'll be out for about 2 months and i don't have internet at home, so i'll have to figure out a way to keep in tough with you guys. So are we done as far as tests go?
