Glad everyone is doing well. My B-H have really been picking up steam, both frequency and intensity. I have never had an early baby but I do know 3rd babies are unpredictable so who knows! She just has to hang out for one more week to be full term. Of course, then probably all these contractions will stop! I would ideally like to get past Thanksgiving but I guess we will see. Maybe she will be on time but I will just have another fast delivery.
I updated on the other due date thread but long story short:
Baby is breech, so we'll schedule a c-section. Not totally disapointed. I like things to be planned out so I have that going for me.
Blood glucose #s have been great so I now only have to test 2x a day instead of 4. Woohoo! :)
Baby size is right at the 50%tile so she's not getting too big. Perfect. :)
So when are you going to have the c/s? Are you going to have your tubes tied if you need a c/s anyway or are you not sure about this being your last baby. I would make DH have a V but if I was going to have a c/s for another reason, I would probably do it. Maybe she will flip back over before then!
I'm glad everything looks good with the baby Five, will they check before you have your c section though to see if she flipped?
I had my appt today, baby is around 6lbs right now so they said he will be in the 8 1/2 to 9lb range which my girls were. They also said that my amniotic fluid was high. She said average is 22 mine is 26 which isn't too high but they sent me for blood work and I have to go for another sono in 2 weeks. I am freaked out!! what does it mean?
Yeah they'll check at the hospital before they do a c/s, but I am just going to plan on having one. It'll probably right after Thanksgiving, which I really did want to get through without a new baby so it works out great. The surgery scheduler will be calling me soon to set the date. It will be after 39 weeks though.
This is for sure our last baby, but the hospital that I am delivering at is a Catholic Hospital so I guess they don't allow sterilization to be done there...but it's the most convienent one for us. DH will just have to get snipped. Which he doesn't mind.
Dloui~ What a cutie!!!
Have I missed an update by Amari?
How is everyone doing? Are our twin moms still hanging in there? I am still working and feeling pretty darn good! Can't believe I will have a daughter in maybe 2 weeks!!
So ladies my baby girl Makalee arrived Nov 14 via c section at 804am.
We are both doing great and looks like we will be leaving the hospital tomorrow :)
I will write a quick blurb but I'm in my phone. I started having contractions on the 13 and they
Progressively got worst. Once there were 5 min apart I got hubby up and we headed to emerg. I was sceduled for my section on nov 26. I was only 36 w 4 d. Once I got the hospital they monitored me nd I was indeed in active labor and needed to be delivered immediately. I was rushed for an emerg section. It's a good thing it was quick because my uterus ruptured. It was scary for a bit but both myself and baby girl are doing great. No nicu for her. She weighed 7lbs 4 oz and I love her more than words can say :). I will post more and a pic once I get home
Awe, congrats ladybug!!!! Can't wait to see pics!!!!
Wow! Congrats! So great! Glad she is did well, that does sound scary though but thank God they got her out safe and sound! Her weight was really good too!!
I HATE stupid pregnancy anxieties! Most of the time I feel great and then BAM, something freaks me out and I am a mess. DS2 got a cold sore about 3 weeks ago - I dont think he has had one before. I freaked then and ended up getting blood tests and tested negative. Now DS1 has a weird pimple like spot on his mouth and this strange red area between his lip and nose that started yesterday. I dont have anything unusual but I am terrified they are going to give it to the baby, especially since I dont have antibodies to giver her... ugh..
