That's awesome fish :) I only got a baby shower with my first... That was so long ago
Fish how lovely for you - glad you had a good time at the baby shower!
I'm completely organized, 36 wks today. See the doc tomorrow but still looks like he will induce at 38 wks, will see what he says at appoint. So about 2 more weeks for me!! Can't come soon enough! Feels so close but so far away lol I'm at the stage now where I am completely nesting but have done everything, so doing completely unnecessary things! However my house is totally thanking me for it! Haha
I'm now 34 weeks (and 1 day yay). When did everyone up it up to 2 cups of raspberry leaf tea?
Fish glad you had a lovely time at your baby shower, did you end up telling everyone your having a little girl this time? :DD:
I think we are just about ready, got everything we need and hospital bag is packed. I'm really wanting to nest too but with moving in a few weeks theres not much i can do. Todays job is pack all the baby things into 1 box and 1 place so if she comes early while we are still at this house ill know where everything is (hopefully)
Started with some pains again yesterday low down and in my lower back but a bath soon sorted it out. I'm not a bath person but have a feeling ill be spending a lot of time in there over the next 3/6/8 weeks.
Hey daltag midwives recommend you take it from 36wks so unless you think you'll be early I'd wait till then to up the dose
No didn't tell two of my friends know but that's it!
I upped it at 35 I think.. It won't put you in labour
So very inconsistent contractions today :) still lots of cramping tho...
So my dr calls me and says I have a bladder infection and I'm very surprised as I have no symptoms at all... AnywYs ... He sends a script to the pharmacy for me... I'm allergic to penicillin so I'm not happy about taking anything... Well my mother brings me my meds and it is macrobid! Which apparently is unsafe to take in the last 2-4 weeks of pregnancy! I deliver in two weeks! Latest! It can cause a dangerous type of anemia I'm reading! I'm quite upset with this as he's actually one of the drs that I really trust and I wasn't even goin to research the drug cause I trust him so much... I'm very happy I looked it up and I think I'm going take my chances at having a preterm baby lol... Since I'm term in a day
Ugh I have loads and loads of gas and diarrhea and its making me contract and I lost more of my plug. I'm sure it's nothing but because I'm already dilated and effaced my dr wanted me to alert her if ANYTHING else happened! I really don't want to call her because if
I do it now it is after hours so I'll be sent to the hospital and I really don't want to do that, and tomorrow, I have too much going on to go in, this is a super busy week for me as ds1 starts school next week, I've got lots to do still!
On a happier note, Ds1 had his reading, math and cognitive skills assessment today for 1st grade and after the assessment was over the teacher told me she would like to refer him to the gifted program because he is so far advanced!! I'm so proud of my little buddy! He is growing up so very fast! Now if I can just get ds3 to talk lol!
Well I always think better safe than sorry... Regardless of what I have to do... You have to ask yourself do I want a preterm baby or keep her safe longer... What are your contractions like? Are they irregular
Yep they are irregular and have slowed down quite a bit
Hope those contractions don't intensify! I just got back from OB appoint. Bubs head is really low, (which didn't surprise me as I'm getting shooting pains on my cervix!) I have a tentative induction date of Aug 28th. I'm so super excited! Have another doc appoint next wk which my doc will then ring hospital and book me in, hospital may change date by a day or 2 but at this stage my doc and I are working towards the 28th!!! Can't come soon enough.... 2 wks tomorrow!! Still feels sooooooo long away!!
