Pregnancy Info HOME

lol well its good to know I'm not the only one! I really haven't had hearburn very much at all throughout this pregnancy but for some reason it seems HORRIBLE right now. There were a couple of times where I actually coughed up stomach acid. thats probably TMI, though.

Hello ladies, just to let you know that I had my baby girl on Mother's Day. Wv_red: I apologize, you are my belly buddy and I didn't even get in touch with you!!!! I went in for an NST on Saturday and the OB decided to induce me, and I wasn't even able to go back home first! ANyhow, we are doing well and I will be posting the birth details soon. Yesterday was our first day back home, so I am a little overwhelmed! Will check back tomorrow or so. Good luck everyone!

Aw, congratulations CG! What a way to celebrate mothers day! How many more of us are left to have their little ones?

Congrats, CgGirl. Get some rest.

CG CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! No worries about the belly buddy thing ok, you just take it easy and take care of that lil girl of yours. Look forward to reading your story though!!! Renee you are probably hold Steven by now, congratulations to you too! Ok ladies I e-mailed Disaya and here is her responce: Hey WV, I've been extremely busy. I relocated to be closer to family and it has been quite a move. Little one will be here on Thursday. My doc is inducing me due to possible toxemia, not sure if I have it yet, but he noticed some protein in my water for the 1st time as well as my blood pressure being elevated. Probably b/c of the move. Please tell all of the girls, I said hello, it's been a disaster getting online. No high speed internet yet. :-D So she is going to be having her little one tomorrow. How neat one born sun, wed, thurs, and tomorrow. whew busy week. Kathy you are so lucky just to be diatlating much less get stripped and then to lose your plug!!!! wow I hope you go soon!! I hope the doc gives me some sort of news tomorrow, I really dont think I can handle hearing " nothing yet, see you next week" I think I will scream,lol!!! Sims my h\b has been acting up too even with taking Zantac! Lets just hope its a good sign!!! My back has been hurting pretty bad tonight and the BH's have been really strong so I hope they are doing something!! Well ladies I hope you all have a good night and I swill pop in after my appointment! I am keeping my fingers crossed! I am defiantly ready to go also but will stay preggers until she says ok time to come. Congratulations again to all the new mommies!!!!

oh wow my days are messed up, Renee and Disaya are both having their lil ones today!!!!!! Sorry bout that :-)

Well ladies, I am defiantly bummed out now. I cried leaving the doctors office today. Nothing closed up tight as a clam. I have been scheaduled to be induced on June 2nd. My due date is next Saturday. Yup nothing happening. I am almost to the point where I will try anything to get this show on the road. This stinks cause if I have to be induced I am going for the drugs which my plan was to have a drug free birth but I guess nothing goes as plan especially childbirth. I am walking and having as much s_x as hubby will allow ;) hes gotta sleep sometime, lol. I dont know, anyone have any suggestions as what to do? The baby is almost 9 lbs now but my doc wants me to do it on my own which isnt bad but I want to be able to deliver with out complications. So any tricks that anyone has let me know. Thanks ladies have a great weekend!

RED, I'm sorry to hear that. Every time I go to the doc and don't hear the news I want I feel like crying, too. Its especially a slap in the face when I was waiting in the waiting room and a woman came out saying they were sending her to L&D right then! The waiting is so hard! But at least you know it wont be much longer, one way or another! I've heard evening primrose oil is good for softening the cervix, but I don't know much about that. Have you tried pelvic tilts and squats to get the baby descending? I tried those a little bit but it didn't seem to do me much good. Maybe it'll work better for you!

I'm sorry if this sounds gross but try pumping or playing with your nipples. The stimulation releases oxytocin. Pitocin, which they'll use if they have to induce you, is the synthetic form of it. If my husband touched them at all my stomach would tighten up.

Red - poor thing, I hope you go before the 2nd, if not, at least you know there's a light at the end of a (very) long tunnel . Oh wow, disaya and reneenay today, woohoo to them.

Afternoon, ladies! How is everyone doing? I am a bit frustrated with BF as of late, besides just being hormonal and nit-picky (especially when it comes to keeping a clean house!) it is the weekend already! We were supposed to be walking and trying to help this baby come in time to be delivered by my OB, but we haven't walked at all, we haven't had any "alone" time, NOTHING!

Hey Red, you still never know, you might just spring open in a few days. but on the other hand i know how you feel. idon't even know if i'm dialated etc, but i'm guessing that i'm not. i have a feeling i'm either gonna have this baby on the due date or after. i'm so frustrated i'm so done. i've never felt more done than now. lately i've been very snappy with dh, it just makes me really mad to look at him, everything he does makes me want to punch him in the face. (just venting ladies). and sometimes i'm so frustrated i find myself resenting the baby, and getting mad that it just won't come out. i can't sleep at night, i sleep in the morning because of exhaustion and even then i think i'm living on five to six hours of sleep. i'm just so uncomfortable, my pelvic pain is unbelievable and i just cant do this anymore. i need to feel a bit free, i need to feel like myself again. i feel so unattractive, and clumsy. today i reached for my drink and spilt a full gla__s all over the darned place. and then because i'm going through this cleaning phase, i didn't let anyone else clean it, i had to be the one because i only trust myself to clean something thoroughly . if i could cry i would if i could scream i would. sorry ladies i just kept rambling. i just want to be me again.

Hi ladies! Well yup its Sunday and still bummed out. I have came to the conclusion I am going to do everything I can to get her out before June 2nd, lol. I am taking both primrose oil and red raspberry tea capsules. Thats not to mention the at least once a day s_x, which is starting to hurt. I feel like we are trying to concieve all over again :) Chatty I hope you get your "alone" time and your walks. Its actually kindof funny you know, there is what only a few left and your doing everything you can, Sims is doing what she can and I am too. Lol. Its like ok EVICTION NOTICE, time to come out!!! I am doing the squats and bouncing on the ball for at least an hour a day. I am laughing as I am writing this cause it just seems funny to me. I have tried for so long to get preggers now I am ready for it to be over, I hope thats normal. My sister is flying in this week to spend a week with me and I was hoping to have my lil one by then!! Tomorrow is Victoria Day, which is what my daughters name is going to be so I am hoping for a miricle that the " flood gates" would open! Ok so who is left yet to have theirs??? Also would anyone mind if we start a new thread? This one is taking a bit to load again :-)

oh Sims I am feeling you on the hip pains. They suck!!! Also I get really hormonal one minute then fine with in after I cry or pout or whatever I need to do. This is not like me!!!! Oh yeah and you gotta love the naps though, it kindof makes up a lil bit for the sleepless nights. :-) Hang in there Sims we dont have much longer.

Hi Everyone, Today is actually my due date and the baby hasn't dropped and I am not dialated. I stopped exercising about a month and a half ago meaning going to the gym and I think this has caused my lack of dailation, etc. i just feel too big and achy even though I only gained about 33-35 pounds. I am a little concerned that the baby is too big, although the doc says it's just right. I want to avaoid a c-section and the doc is looking to induce me either Thursday or Friday. I'm pretty nervous and hope there's no complications. Any advice?

JUST, sorry to hear about your frustrations. Sometimes it just takes babies a little longer to get ready. I definitely don't blame you for not wanting to exercise. I took a trip to walmart today and OH MY GOD Besides trying to walk slow so I don't get leg cramps, I kept getting over heated and dizzy! I even had to squat for a bit to keep from pa__sing out. The good news is, all that walking around made me spot some so hopefully that means something is going on down there. Has anyone else started to get the anxious family/friends syndrome? Every time I call my mother or BF's mother, they ask me how i'm doing, if I'm having any contractions. And you can just tell in the sound of their voices that they think I'm calling to tell them its time! Its going to be a long rest of the pregnancy if they keep that up!
