Thank, Z - I really hope you're right.

Thinking of you today Ingle! Hope all is going well!

Everyone is getting so close!! Yay!

Mocha....I wouldn't be able to sleep either!! Hope you hear pink on Thursday!

Well my blood sugar is not controlled by diet so Dr put me on a pill to help bring it down. The biggest worry right now is that I am spilling Ketones in my urine....which is very bad...and can be very bad for the baby! But so far the pills are not working...in fact my blood sugars have gone up a little more! UGH I can't win this time around. I am really thinking of pushing the Dr to take this baby early.....I just don't want anything bad to happen in the next 5 weeks while I wait for him to arrive. I can not lose another baby!! My stress and fears are just so strong right now. Sorry needed to vent a little. I have been reading and researching everything about Gest.Diab. and all the things that can go wrong....and then when I read about the Ketones I keeping thinking oh great I already have one child with issues...and now maybe this one will too! I just want a live healthy baby that's all....not all this other stuff! I really can't go though losing another child......I just can't. If something were to happen to this one....I can't go through another pg....my body can't handle it...I can't handle it.....I really am gonna push the Dr to deliver him early (as long as his lungs are ok)!

I'm soooooo sorry you're having such a tough time, princess!

Thanks, DM. I am so terrified. I was up at 4 this morning and couldn't fall back to sleep thinking about it. I just have a strong feeling it's a boy .

I really thought this one was a boy. I was so certain of it. It was a gut feeling that couldn't be ignored. I was truly shocked when I saw a girly nub at my scan. I think that your pics are very girly and I think you have such a great chance for this one to be a girl!! I felt a boy vibe from your angel baby and this one has been throwing girly vibes out I'm sticking with as my guess

DM - do you check your own cervix?! Sounds like you'd need to be quite bendy to do that! I'm glad you're almost ready and hope your little lady doesn't keep you waiting too long!

Yes I've checked my cervix all through all of my pregnancies. I hate vag exams given by other people so I just do them myself if I really want to know. It doesn't tell you much at all but I'm just more interested in what my body is doing and staying in tune with it. I've never had a problem reaching my cervix but then again my tilted uterus allows me to reach in front with no issues
I hear you on the tired thing....I am exhausted in the am. All I want to do is sleep until 10am...but my kids are up at 7:30 so that's not going to happen.

I'm so sorry that things are so rough for you Sometimes ketones aren't a problem. But if you feel like it's safer to get him out earlier than you should go with your gut. You might be surprised...he may just decide to come earlier knowing it's safer on the outside. I will keep you in my thoughts~~

Thinking of you, Ingle!!! I hope you're getting tons of squishy newborn snuggles right now!! xoxo

[Mochagirl]

Thanks, DM - I really hope you're right! I just can't ignore the handful of boy guesses I've gotten, as well as the fact that many who guessed pink only lean that way a bit. I keep telling myself that Coldwater said 85 percent girl, and an unnamed friend of a friend who's a tech said 'definitely' a girl so I still have a chance....but Foxy only gave me a pink lean so that kind of counterbalanced those optimistic guesses. Ahhhhhhh! I'm not sure I'm going to survive the next 30 hours!!!!

[zanacal]

princesssarah - I'm so sorry you're going through this. I'm sure I'd feel exactly the same way with your history and I hope your doctor really listens to you and helps you through this in the safest way for you and baby. Thinking of you x

[DoulaMama]
