September 2013 babies!!

are you dialating at all yet?

The silver lining in this so far is that my cervix is actually holding up better than usual. I'm only about a fingertip dialated and although my cervix is shortening more than a "normal" person's would, it is pretty good for me. Hopefully it stays that way.

What about you WAG? Have you still been having a lot of contractions?

Here is my bump... for some reason it seems to look much bigger in person than in the pics but trust me I'm huge lol.

Wow wag you are busy, i thought i had a mad few months coming up but nothing compared to what you've got going on.

I have my bloods done again on the 9th of july so they will most likely do my glucose then. I also have to have a jab for whooping cough as theres been an outbreak in the uk so they are giving that out to expectant mums, i'm dreading it. I hate needles so much but i know its for the best.

Thorz i know its prob not easy but try not to worry about weight gain. I'm the opposite to you tho and worry if i'm putting enough on and if i'm eating enough. I used to have really bad issues with food in the past and i find it so tough to eat more but i know i have to eat more than i usually would.

yup and all that madness begins monday... dread dread dread.....

WAG, my guys were born at 31, 35 and 33 weeks. I'm sorry you're still having lots of contractions too. Hope you have a good check up. Will they check your cervix?

[Wanting-a-girl]

Ya he will if I ask him to I can't believe ob appts are gonna be bi-weekly already :s

I've just had my glucose test. I usually don't have it until 28wks but my doc is going away so wanted me to have it before he went. Will see what those results are next wk. I've never had an issue so hoping this time round is the same.

I have my glucose test in 3 weeks, but I have never had an issue with it. I actually usually have low blood sugar during pregnancy!

Southern, I really hope it all works out ok for you and that your little guy hangs in there as long as possible. My guys always have to be forced out by induction lol. What a sweet pic you captured, he is totally hiding from the camera....awesome!

Thank you Thorz. I usually have low blood sugar too which is why I'm so shocked that I could have gestational diabetes. How are you doing? I'm really sorry to hear you're already in such pain. Is your mom still there to help out?

[Thorz300]

I'm doing better this pregnancy than last pregnancy at this time but I'm still on bed rest and hurt a lot. My mom is here and will stay with us for a month after the baby is here, so she will be here a total of 6 months!! My boys absolutely love having their Gammy here!
