It's so quiet in here! What is going on ladies? How is everyone?
Nothing new here.... I'm exactly 30 weeks today, so 10 weeks left !
I'm feeling alright - baby is obviously getting bigger so movement is more obvious but this little one doesn't kick very much. People keep wanting to feel the baby ... but baby isn't very active but if you push a little on my right side, baby will kick you as to say "stop".
The only real nagging issue is my heartburn / acid reflux but I've been battling that since 2nd trimester began. it gets so bad that I don't get much sleep some nights (couple nights ago, I threw up because of it) .... so, needless to say, at times, I can be real moody (poor DH) :laugh:
Other than that... nothing new to report... next Dr appt is Jan 9 but I'm sure it'll be the same basic stuff.
How about you Cama? Anything new with those little boys? How are you feeling?
I'm 30 weeks today! :)
I would talk to your doctor about Prilosec or Prevacid, I can't remember which one they have me. I was throwing up nightly from reflux. I'm still 10 pounds under my pre-preg weight so they wanted to puking to stop.
Yay for an appointment! Can't wait to hear how it goes.
My weekly appointments start tomorrow. I have a neonatal consult and a checkup tomorrow. They boys never stop moving around. I'm one sore pregnant lady. I'm feeling huge and frustrated with my body since it so hard to do everything. The boys weigh about 5 pounds combined now so I guess I should expect it! Other than that not much to report since my scare last week. I do have some extremely leaky boobs. Ick. I feel like I have more energy lately which is nice. Been doing some cleaning and organizing in the house, nothing really left to do for the babies, that's all ready to go, minus the fact that the rocker needs to be reupholstered.
After being in L&D last week and starting labor I'm itching for my babies to be here! I am glad they are safe and sound for now though. Ill try to be patient. :) We're all getting so close!!!!
I don't sleep anymore. Hips hurt too much and baby seems to kick no matter hoe I lay as if to say, "roll over you are on my head"!
I feel like a whale. Need help getting off the couch me. Lol. Trying to roast a turkey today and I'm wiped out.
my heart burn and indigestion is absolutely miserable....this is the worst I've had it for sure. Even water burns and bounces around in my throat about 10 mins after drinking. I'm trying to avoid everything!!! I just get these urges though to have a piece of chocolate or Oreos and milk, and after I divulge myself I get so sad and frustrated while suffering for nearly 3 hours. I'm taking 3-4 Tums 700 2x a day....it needs to be more but I do not want to exceed the dosing. I really need to consult with my Doc because I can not sleep comfortably until about 1 am (even later at night than that if I have a later than 8pm snack).
Exciting news though is that we are preparing to leave for Hawaii on Wednesday! Not super excited about leaving our house at 5am, but I'm sure the kids will do fine....hopefully they will crash for a while during the almost 6 hr flight. We will be gone for a week so I know I probably wont log on during then.
Paulette, I totally understand not being able to sleep... And feeling like a whale! :)
Have fun in Hawaii Britany!! Hopefully you can enjoy some yummy food while you're there without suffering too much!
Have fun in Hawaii!
Feeling crampy and lots of BH's! Sometimes I think I'm going over my dd and other times I worry he will come early with the way I feel. Im getting ready to start taking my Red Rasberry Leaf so hopefully I'm ready to go when it comes time to deliver.
BH are the worst!
What is red raspberry leaf used for?
Uterine toning, a lot of midwives recommend it to help with labor, tone the uterus so that when you are in labor your contractions are doing something/more effective. Its also supposed to help with post partume bleeding.
Interesting!
I'm on Prevacid daily. It's been a miracle drug. I was taking Pepcid and zofran before that and unable to eat/drink. The Prevacid made it so I don't need any of those other meds.
My appointment went well. Doc said my iron levels should be fine. They won't need to do another blood test. And I should take some calcium for my restless legs.
Yay Paulett!!! Glad it went well, hope the calcium helps.
I hope so too. Oh and the doc felt around my belly to see what position the little goober is in. He is in a diagonal position. Head down by my lower left, butt near my belly button and feet towards the upper right. Makes sense. I feel most of the movement on my right side by my belly button. Hehe, now I know where his feet are I can tickle them.
You'll have to keep us posted if the calcium works!
I hope the Dr feels my stomach today and can tell me where the baby is... but I somehow think it'll be a fast appt, as always. There is something that is to the right of my belly button on top.....hardness is there so I think it may be the butt but I have no clue! They haven't even told me if the baby is measuring ahead/behind or anything... but, I think I'll have a big baby.
Not to hijack this thread but I bought a girl "going home" outfit today ... http://www.kohls.com/product/prd-1038627/carters-dot-microfleece-hooded-vest-set-baby.jsp?searchTerm=Carter's%20Dot%20Microfleece%2 0Hooded%20Vest%20Set%20-%20Baby
Now I just need to find a boy one!
Then, hope the baby is big as I'm buying 0-3 month instead of newborn ... oh well, if baby is small, I'll send the DH and my Mom out to buy a new outfit after the little one is here...
Aw, that is a cute outfit.
Love the outfit! I am excited to see what you have!! I was team green with Cameron and was sure I was having a boy! This time I was sure I was having girls. At least I was right about the number of babies each time, just not gender. Lol
LO is in the exact opposite, I feel everything on the Left side, same exact positioning!Quote:
