Well he doesn't want to do any inducing or c-section till 39 weeks so I'm not sure why he would do the sweep at 37 weeks either... Really doesn't make much sense... I'm actually in the process of looking at a different practice to see if they are more vbac friendly.... I talked to him about wanting to do natural instead of any pitocin & stuff & he did say that he'd let me go to 41 weeks if I really want too... He's just nervous about baby getting big & uterine rupture but I'm sure that's a little chance since I've been doing so much reserch... I'm going to tell him no on the sweep for 37 weeks!! Thanks ladies!

Is that why you had csec for other children because of size? Most women can birth the size of their baby but their are a small few who need assistance even after birthing in correct positions and being in a comfortable place. My friend just had an 11# at home and all my boys were 10+ at home and fast pushing phases. My 4th child actually came w/O any pushing at all from me. Thought the 5th would be like that but no luck lol.

Ahhhh...anyone have any good things for a cold (most importantly a stuffy nose??). I've been drinking so much fluid, getting as much rest as I can, Vicks, steamy shower, breathe right strips, saline nose spray, ect. And NOTHING is working. Just so much snot and stuffiness. [emoji30]

At my wits end last night I did one small spray in each nostril of nasonex. That was like heaven on earth and I was finally able to sleep!! But, I don't want to rely on it and only use it at night before bed. I'm just miserable and with Christmas now it makes it even worse. [emoji17]

Nope, my other sections were #1 was high blood pressure & they said they lost baby's heartbeat, #2 was them not letting me go past my due date.... Should have really pushed for that one!

Taytum~ I'm with you! Just got a cold with tons of snot!! Just trying to be as healthy as possible... Stinks that it's just in time for our vacation & holidays ... Hope you feel better soon!!

Thanks ladies - I just didn't know if there was something magical I was missing out on. MIL gave me a box of Emergen C, but with all that extra vitamins + my prenatals I wasn't sure so I opted out of it. Interestingly enough I do feel better sucking on life savers?! I figured might be a little better than the cough drops (and tastes better!).

Man Bee - I should be thankful it's just a cold for me! Hope your youngest gets to feeling better!!

And Merry Christmas everyone!! [emoji319]

Ash- uggg yeah its difficult when you have to know your rights as they seem to go out the window when women are prego. A due date is just an estimate so I don't know why ob's trying to box you in it. Hope you find a good one. I am very fortunate to live in an area w lots of great midwives(home birth) to choose from. Hope everyone is having a great Christmas and that sickness goes away soon. I have a cough and constant heartburn but have that with every prego its the coughing and sneezing and trying not to pee myself bwahaha. Oh the joys of being prego

Sorry to hear some of you ladies are sick �� Have you tried a netti pot taytum? Having a stuffy nose is definitely no fun while pregnant. I finally am on the mend with my cough. But we now have some 24 hr tummy thing running through our house, just glad it's nothing longer then that!

[TaytumJ]

Hope - I think I may get one! I've heard a ton of people talk about them and how they work for them. Do you have one? For some reason I feel like it would hurt? [emoji37] That's always what's scared me from using it before!

Boyboygirl- how was your 3d scan?

Hello! I actually went to 2 different places for a 3D scan - the first time I couldn't see the boy parts and even though I was pretty sure it was correct I just had to see for myself lol. There is definitely another cute little boy in there . I'm still bummed from time to time about the thought of not having a girl but I'm excited for our newest addition .
