Due June/July/August 2016 Part 2

[missiz]

thanks for starting the new thread

goodluck panther, i hope it all goes smoothly for you xo

I am only 26 weeks but really struggling right now been feeling off and breathless, just have no energy for anything. and I am helping my parents move atm, so I suppose that is adding to the stress. I have my glucose test this week which I'm not looking forward to, and also my hospital booking in appointment.

I have a question ladies. Should I start taking epo. Is it safe? I m 35+4 days

My midwife said it's fine after 36 weeks 3x a day with food (and that there's no evidence taking it vaginally works better). I lost my plug 3 days after starting it :O

Throwaway - I lost mine on Thursday and had lots of back pain, then went into labor on Monday!! Hope that happens for you...do lots of walking!

Boyz- thanks so much...enjoying every second with this little guy!

Missiz - I bet moving is throwing you off as well. I hope your glucose goes well this week. Take it easy on yourself mama!

Missiz have you had your iron levels/stores checked lately?mine were really low and my hb had dropped a little and that was why i was feeling breathless often. Ive been taking x2 supplements a day for a month to bring it back up.

Best of luck panther.

Glad to hear all is well taytum

@missiz i was like you missiz and my iron levels were pretty low. Get checked. My parents are moving end of this month too but i feel guilty for not going over and helping them out. [emoji17]You r strong but take care of urself hun. Hope ur glucose test is gud.

@ panther. I m just afraid to take it orally. I m taking so many multi already. Should i start it 🤔

Boyz did u get csections due to labour not starting spontaneously ?
For me the prolonged standing and all day walking is what always jumpstarts things.

Ladies when u say passed mucus plug do u mean just plain mucus or mucus with blood. I have been passing thick creamy mucus blobs for days now but they r not at all blood tinged so i am not looking much into it. I have a doc check in 2 days. Getting back and pelvic pains as if menstrual cycle was to start and strong braxtons that take my breath away

@Blue: Mine was boogery. Blood tinged can happen too, but with or without, it still means the plug is coming out.

@Boyz: If you do take it vaginally, make sure you wear a pad!

@Taytum: Thank you!! I've been trying to walk a ton. Had an NST today (unrelated to the prelabor) and all the nurses were talking about how crazy low baby is now -- I'm having the hardest time walking, but I keep waddling on (and doing weighted squats!)

Boyz: I had baby at 37+2, and I didn't do any methods besides walking, doing stairs and being as active as I could. And I ate pineapple at breakfast, but not a ton of it by any means.

BB: mine was mucus with dark brown. It also happened for days and was on and off with the dark brown in it. I also had back and pelvic pain like I was on my period! Hoping you're getting close!

Throwaway: that's what everyone kept saying to me! That baby was SO LOW! At my 36w u/s she said he was so low she'd be surprised if he stayed in for another 2 weeks.

Can't wait for you ladies to have your little ones!
