November chit chat thread for ladies due in Sept./Oct./Nov 2012

No way, I don't think I'll be that lucky. I'm scheduled on Nov 27th for a c-section (her daddy's birthday!) You're next for sure Girly!

Haha, I'm terrible about sweets, too. Although I have been being pretty good recently. My domperidone finally showed up and I know that makes me hungry, so I keep telling myself it's not REAL hunger and to really pay attention to what I eat.

Ivy is still a sweet tiny thing. She started to have very obvious signs of painful reflux this past week, so she is starting meds tonight. I hope that also helps the whole breastfeeding scenario, too. She's still gaining slow but steady! Even with the reflux, she's so smiley...I think she even has my dimple (my mom and I both have a dimple right on the "squishy" part of our cheeks), but it's hard to tell yet.

Here she is from a few days ago in an outfit that was mine when I was a wee one:

well i had an eventful day....I had a headache the past 2 days with some swelling in my hands and feet and numbness so I went to labor and delivery....Everything is great with me, but baby girl's heartrate was way too high....So they said if they couldnt get it down they would have to deliver......they gave me some IV fluids and finally after a bag of fluids her heart rate was normal again...I am having contractions but nothing too bad....I would like her to wait another week or 2 before she arrives....I have to go back and be monitored tomorrow again...she better behave!!!! She seems to be in a rush to get out....

laughing, Ivy is so cute!

Lynxie, she is such a sweetheart. And I love that she is wearing clothes that were yours. I remember my mum kept a couple of my baby things but I have no idea where they are now. So nice that you are getting lots of smiles. Hope the medication for both of you helps.

Ladybug, did they think you were dehydrated and that's what caused the fast heart rate? Good that your baby is happier after the extra fluids anyway. Hope she stays put for a bit longer, but at least you know she will be fine when she does arrive.

Well today in Australia is the 10/11/12 and unfortunately no sign that this baby will end up with that birthdate! 5 days maximum until I get to meet her though, so that is good.

Darn it! I can't believe out of all of us, no one got a 10/11/12 baby! Oh well. You'll meet your little one soon!

Ladybug, sorry you are having issues. Hope your baby stays put a little longer!

Lynxie, Ivy is adorable! Sorry about her reflux. Sawyer pukes all the time and is super gassy, so he has some sort of digestion thing going too, but it hasn't slowed his weight gain down at all. He is a total chunk:IMG_3183_2.jpg

Aww Hobber, he is lovely and chubby. Gorgeous cuddly boy.

[laughinglynxie]
