Ash I've gone from 'how can this be so close' to 'I cant wait to get there' [emoji23][emoji23] With having to change obs, xmas organising (really close to being fully done [emoji322]) averaging only between 5-6 hours or constantly broken sleep, restless legs, back and groin pain and constantly feel like I'm a walking hot water bottle I'm so ready to have baby here lol!! I'm definately at the complaining part and don't say much at the moment because I feel like I'm whinging [emoji23]

Ash im feeling ok thanks :) the spd is making it very painful to turn over in bed but thankfully it doesnt bother me much during the day, thats good that your not feeling too sore i can imagine trying to relax your muscles during that procedure is near enough impossible!! hope your cold clears up soon rest as much as you can!! :D and being this close snuck up on me too it still doesnt feel real
mommaxo im excited too :) even though i still haven't fully got my head around it, i think its bin team green thats causing this, i have literally no idea who is joining us this time so i cant imagine the baby at all!!
bluebooties good luck for tomorrow, fingers crossed baby passes everything :) and thats great that you will get your induction date so you can plan your leave etc around it, have you heard any more about your new leave policy?
Blue hoping for the best tomorrow! I’ll be waiting for an update
Pbn I feel you! Everything hurts!! And I’m ALWAYS hot mid winter here and I’m driving with the windows cracked and kids are always complaining they’re cold [emoji23] sorry Boys!
4b2p well hopefully not much longer for you to have to bear the pain. Come on baby!

I hear u Ash and Pbn3, i am ready for this to be over as well. My back is the main trouble area and then the spd. Hot water bottle and dermoplast have been my friends lately but still relief is only temporary.
4blue2pink I need to know the exact induction date b4 i can call that third party group and get further details so waiting on my OB.

4b2p – I would have asked for further investigation and did ask hubs to ask too, but what can I say, he just didn’t bother :(
Next time I see the Dr (early Jan) I will mention it to her anyways because I can’t quite get off my mind there is something unusual about E’s ligaments for her to be so prone to injury – I mean her sister has climbed/jumped etc way more recklessly – and never hurt herself like that!
Ash – haha I’m the same – I think all pregnant women run really hot haha
Blue – keep us posted – hope the appointment/tests all go well!
I can so sympathise with your desire to be over it now – it’s hard work!!! Not that long to go now for you ladies, hang in there! ;)
I am only 26 weeks and feel like my body is over it already between the constant contractions, SPD, sleeplessness and sciatica – as much as I want to enjoy it and her in me & I know that I will cry and miss my belly when she is out – it definitely will be a relief for my body ^^
I️ wrote a long msg but Tapatalk started acting up again. I️ had to
Delete and reinstall. [emoji849][emoji849]
So,I️
Am going to post short msgs now.
4b2p - I️ am so so excited for you. It’s the kids not knowing that tickles me the most. [emoji4] I️ can’t imagine how you kept it from them. Do they ask any questions about your belly? How do you do it? You have to write a detailed birth story with pictures on fb pls. Hope I️ could post this now.

Ash - I️ agree with you about the snot. Bad and severe colds run in my family but the one I️ got in this pregnancy has been the worse ever. I️ has a massive nose bleed on day4. The things that helped the best
1 Rest,rest and rest. I️ stopped worrying about who is eating what and just slept because I️ was miserable. I️ know this must be super challenging for you with your work to finish and kids. Still pls try.
2 Ocean saline spray. That helped a lot with the snot and I️ took my heat pack and applied it over my forehead and around nose and that helped a lot too. I️ couldn’t smell or taste anything for over 3 weeks. It was the heat pack that brought the sense back.
My doc suggested that I️ drink a lot of hot water too.
Try these things and see if any of it helps. Hope you feel better soon.

Bluebooties- Good luck for your appointment tomorrow. Hope and pray that the baby gets a perfect score. Keep us posted. Jan 8th is so close if they induce you in 37 weeks. We are all so close. [emoji4]
LMSM - Hope the little girl feels all better by tomorrow.
Pbn - I️ have such bad pain in the bone around my lady parts. It hurts so bad when I️ sit or stand or when I️ have to pee. Walking to the restroom looks impossible at times. I️ am still walking dd back from school because she loves walking with her friends. Not for long though. I️ still don’t want the time to go by fast. I️ love being pregnant and now that I️ have made peace with gd, this pain is making things hard [emoji853]I️

bluebooties fingers crossed you get your date today so you can make the call!! :)
LMSM it does sound like something is not quite right :( but i think its quite common for kids to have this issue and she will most likely grow out of it, but its still stressful for you having to constantly deal with her hurting herself!!
sky they havent asked at all!! i dont get very big and do wear loose clothes so i guess that helps to hide it, im honestly just glad to not have to answer 5000 questions a day from them all about "when is the baby coming?" etc!! it would drive me mad!!
4blue2pink - I hope baby comes before Christmas so it's like a fun early Christmas gift! I also thought I'd get the "whens baby coming" 4567455684 times but they really haven't asked much. They know baby is coming after my oldest daughter's birthday which is in Jan so I'm sure the questions may start then.
Blue - We're all waiting to hear your finish line date! Jan 9th sounds like a good date (it's my oldest DD's 10th birthday) ;)
mommaxo i dont think it'll be before xmas that would be quite early for me, im thinking last week of december/first week of jan but we will see!! :D at least if the questions start in jan you wont have them for too long
Well what ya know ! For the first time baby took the required number of practice breaths within the first 15 mins of the biophysical AND the placental flow was near normal !
The only thing different today compared to the 2 tests with abnormal flow were i that i had rested more than usual this past week being off from work and all while the prior 2 weeks i was on call when i got tested.
So MFM still recommends no point in going further than 38 weeks. I placed a call into my OB's office to confirm my date and time for induction. The OB has an opening for jan 8th which is 37 weeks 4 days for me. Then i will call the third party group to set up my FMLA.

I got to see baby's face in 3d today and baby has a cute button nose ! [emoji173]

Also baby was 3 pound 15 ounces as of last Wednesday at 33 week 5 days. They will follow on weight next weeks visit ( every 2 weeks ). I am hoping to reach above 5 pounds by induction date 🤞

That’s fantastic blue! So glad all is looking up! Wish there was more you could do to rest from work but your so close to the finish line.

Fantastic news Blue, what a cutie!!! I love how much you can start seeing their features in 3D, a little sneak peek of baby to come :)
Ash, enjoy your little trip, hope all goes well and miss E stays put juuuust that bit longer ;)
If I don’t get a chance on the day, merry Christmas in advance all!!! :awe: enjoy the special times with your loved ones :awe:
I can’t wait for a few days ,un rushed , with my girls and hubby
4blue2pink - I thought you were further along and due this month. Sorry. Lots of due dates in here lol.
Bluebooties - So glad baby did well! And January 8th sounds like a great day. Do you set up the FMLA before or after the baby comes? I emailed earlier this week about it but still haven't gotten any response but the guy I emailed may be out for the holidays. Better get those preemie and newborn sizes ready.
Everyone else...Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I probably won't be back until after Christmas. Maybe I'll come back to some baby pictures ;)
Ash i think its wise to do it in one day even though it makes it a very long one!! you dont want to be hours away from your hospital for too long at this point :D
pbn XX is probably just busy with christmas etc but she such an active poster that i noticed she'd gone quiet!!
LMSM hope you have a lovely Christmas with your girls :heart:
mommaxo3 im due right at the end of December :)
Ok induction set for January 12th at 3 AM. I will be 38 weeks exact then. But i will start FMLA from January 5 th ( my 37 week ) just so in case they want to move back induction date i am covered either way plus i can rest prior to delivery day. So overall either way i have 7 work days left prior to delivery.
Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Now to figure out what i will do with the kids at 3 AM in the morning. For lots of technical reasons they start inductions overnight/that early and no chance to move it to another time frame.
Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Blue that’s good you’ll have a week off before! Id for sure take it! That early is always hard to get all the kids around. Do you have anyone who could come stay at your house to make it easier?
[emoji170](07) [emoji170](09) [emoji170](14)[emoji170](15)[emoji166] EDD 1-15-18[emoji166]
We have some on need basis nannies but i dont know if they would want to come at 3 am. Will ask. But as last resort since kids go to school/daycare at 8. So maybe i could drive myself to L&D and start the process at 3 am while DH can join in after dropping kids off at 8 am.
Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Yes blue it does stink a bit more the more kids you have but dh and I have to do stuff like that also. He is there for delivery and stays most of the days but usually drives home at night to take care of the boys and make sure they’re comfortable and not left out. Which I hate he’s not with me but I’m grateful he helps care for the others while I’m on a “mini vacation” [emoji12]

Oh my Bluebooties! 3am??!!! So glad you'll be having a week off prior! Rest up as much as possible!! I cant wait to find out what you're having [emoji3]
4blue2pink so close as well [emoji38] its like the race is on to see who will deliver first... you, Bluebooties or Ash [emoji125]
Lmsm happy to hear things are getting sorted at your house and so close to chrissy too!
Sky I hope your pain doesn't get any worse! Mine gets worse and better as I overdo it then rest [emoji23] after Christmas I plan on resting as much as possible. I'm finally satisfied with my house and what I've achieved in 10 weeks (when I've had 6 years to do it [emoji23][emoji23])
Lola it's been forever! How are you?
Merry Christmas to one and all [emoji319][emoji322][emoji320] I hope you all have a wonderful time xxoo Talk to you all on the other side of it [emoji173]

Per the nurse i spoke to for scheduling, this being my first induction they dont know how long my body will take to respond to meds and so they want to start early so as not to sitting by my side sll day [emoji1]. And i get what they r saying. She wants be dilated by the time the doc comes in for rounds at 8 AM so she can possibly deliver me and then head off to her clinic.
I am so ready to have this kid ! Just tired of all these tests and fluctuating news, one day all is hood the other not good arghhh. I am feeling all will be normal, i probably just have a petite passive baby. And in fact sonogram weight estimation has 10 % error margin as well.
Lola has been quite for a while i am hoping its just bcoz of the festivities and all is well at her end.
Sky how r u ? How frequently r u getting ur NST now ?
Merry Christmas to all !

Merry Christmas ladies and wish you all happy holidays.
Ash - Please update once you are back from the trip. Hope you have a wonderful trip and coming back the same is a good idea.
Bluebooties- Wow Jan 12. Getting so close now. My Nst is twice a week. It’s a lot of appointments. I️ hear you. But whatever helps us feel that the baby is doing okay. Hang in there. Almost there.
Pbn - You have done a lot in the last 10 weeks. You are awesome. Enjoy the holidays now. ❤️❤️
4b2p- I️ will be waiting for the news soon. ❤️
LMSM - Is dh Home? How is the little girl doing? Merry Christmas and enjoy the festival.
Lolla,Kat,Iwant4kids and everyone else - Hope all is well. Have a Very Merry Christmas.
