Hey everyone. I guess Im nesting. We are stuck in this little house and I am trying to figure out where to put things. I got out everything that I need and it will work for the first 6 months I think. After that we'll see! We are still waiting for new on post housing and they said they think they will have something in about 4 weeks. Im due in 6. Anyways, I also packed my hospital bag as much as I could. Im just so tired but cant stop cleaning and organizing. Its like Im driven. Who else is at this point? EJ, I hear you with the legs thing. They look horrible and Ive kept up my exercise! I just cant wait for him to be here. Hope you all are doing well.

Liz- yes that is why. My ultra sound tomorrow is to give them a better idea as to what is going on. I may just be measuring big b/c she is breech, but if not & she really is that big, dr. said if she doesn't turn real soon she won't have the room to be able to. We are gonna go over the ultra sound results at my next appt. on the 29th. Are the rest of you ladies down to going to the dr. every two weeks yet? I love it- just means we are that much closer to the end of our pregnancies!

I am so trying the flax oil and vit c tonite - thank you!! And for the record... we're not complaining. That's what the forum is for... for pregnant ladies with raging hormones, thunder thighs and constipation : ) Jen - hope every thing goes well at the Dr. office. I'm actually excited about seeing the Doc every 2 weeks now - gives me something to look forward to. I'm sooooooo in the nesting stage as well. In my situation, my house is getting a "face-lift", so literally every room is upside down! We're getting our wood floors redone this weekend and had to move all the furnitre from the bedrooms, hallway and living room OUT into the kitchen, family room and my office! So, needless to say, I'm having a fit. I'm paranoid the house won't be done by the time our little guy arrives (although my hubby a__sures me everything will be in order). I'm tired, fat, constipated and frumpy... did I mention tired! I'm counting the days....

Jnfr614 - i was going to tell you, but you already found out that your babys measuring ok, but im having the same problem of measuring a month bigger than i should be, i was measuring 34cms at 29wks and im so much bigger now and i get measured again tomorrow at 33wks 3days. But because ive been having regular scans i know hes actually measuring fine. I got my next scan in a week so il be seeing him again to see how hes grown in the last 4 weeks. Hopefully my placenta will still be working, because if theres any signs of it deteriating they may take him straight out!! Hopefully the fluid levels will still be ok. I am also in loads of pain and feeling quite emotional. I know its normal with the hormones being so high, but i just burst into tars this afternoon at the slightest thing. Its probably just the exhaustion making it worse than it is. Anyway girls im glad your all ok. Were so near the finish line now. I wondr who'll be first? x x x

MissP you crack me up! We should take bets on who is delivering first!

 

MissP - August 19

Hey girls. 34 weeks today. Miss P, I hope your appt goes well tomorrow. My next one is next week. I think I have the earliest due date but that doesnt mean anything. My bet is on Oct 1st for my due date and my husband thinks Oct 2nd. We'll see if either of us is right. I was sure ds was going to be born sept 13 and he wasnt born until the 16th.

PICK ME, PICK ME!!! LOL. MissP- glad you're doing good! The dreaded sleepless nights are back. Last night was the absolute worst yet- I'm sure I've said that before, but it was the worst by far. No matter what I did my back was hurting- I put pillows every which way I could, laid in every position imaginable (except on my belly of course). I get this burning, tingling, numbing kinda feeling in my back on my right side where my ribs are & it doesn't let up. I even tried sleeping sitting up- I think my body finally got so exausted that I fell asleep w/ the discomfort, cause I don't even remember finally falling asleep. Anyone know of anything to help w/ this? I am desperate!

I think we should start a new thread soon- this one is getting kinda long.

 

CatsMommy - August 19

Jennifer - I wish I had an answer for you! I can't sleep either! I can't get comfortable. It's to the point where I just start crying out of frustration because I'm so over tired but I can't fall asleep! Not to mention when I feel myself just about to fall asleep, I have to pee - no joke! this is crazy! BTW, awesome news on your u/s!! I have my next appt next Thur. I go every 2 weeks now - YAY! I agree... this thread got long quick! We should start a new one.
