Tuesday Bedrest Check In

It's Tuesday :)

Would like to start this check in, telling you ladies how amazingly proud I am of each and everyone of you. Being on bedrest isn't easy. It drains you emotional and physically but the prize at the end is so worth it. For the new bedrester joining us. Stay strong, set milestones and try to embrace this new temporary normal. God hand picked us because he knew we could handle it. Keep those little ones cooking ladies!!!!


How did everyone sleep last night?

Milestones? Update? Appts?


Qotd: Name 1 quality or physical trait you would want your little one to have from both you and your mate?

Re: Tuesday Bedrest Check In

  • I went to bed at 2am which is early comparing to these past few days. It's currently 6:52am been up since 6 because DH alarm. He didn't go to work today because he doesn't feel good. I didn't have anything planned for today so excited he is home to keep me company. I think pancakes for breakfast might just hit the spot :)

    I slept alot yesterday which was well needed rest. Thinking about ordering my baby shower center pieces today and invites. I have 6wks till baby shower and only thing that is done is the place is reserved :)

    Looking forward to tomorrow's 30wk milestone and my 17p nurse coming to visit.

    Qotd: I would love for my daughter to have my eyes as they are hazel green. I am obsessed with colored eyes lol. I would want her to have her daddy's laid back, worry free personality. He is such a positive person to have around as I am always thinking negative!!!

  • Still in the hospital the nurse came in around 4 said I didnt have any contractions for almost 3 hours but then they started again. She thinks it was because it was almost time for my medicine. Now just waiting on a dr to see what the next step is. Slept like crap can never sleep in hospitals.

    my fiance and I both have green eyes hope the girls get them.
  • Update: 31 weeks!!! Woohoo! Trying to make it to 34, but will settle for 32 weeks. Had a lot of contractions yesterday that calmed down after I drank two pitchers of water and had my Procardia dose. Slept pretty good until my 5:30 dose. My blood sugar was low and the nurse had me drink apple juice to raise it. Then, when she checked on me, I had a contraction - had to drink another pitcher of water and was rechecked - stopped contracting. My MFM came in 30 mins later and my OB 30 mins after that. I have up on sleeping.

    QOTD: My husband and I both have dark hair, dark eyes, and similar coloring, so no surprise there. I hope they get his eyes. He has beautiful long eyelashes. It looks like they have my nose which is tiny.

    Slept alright. Had a late night talk about our memories with dh which was very nice and refreshing. Got woken up by the alarm - that I set last night to take pills in the morning - and got pissed the next day because I couldn't figure out why my damn alarm was going off...total brainfart

    Milestones/update/appt:
    I have an appointment for a 3D ultrasound in a few hours and am sohoooo excited to see his face and how much he grew :]]]

    Qotd:
    My eye color. I'll just attach a picture I'm too lazy to write ^^' ps. I didn't take anything just tired, promise haha
    His smile. It mesmerizes me when it creates the awesomest dimples in his cheeks not to mention the freckles :3

  • 34+6 today! I had an MFM appt yesterday and Baby A is measuring 5.6 lbs and Baby B is measuring 5 lbs. I can't believe I have made it this far and things are still going good.

    It's getting harder to sleep at night but I'm getting used to it.

    I hope they get H's eyes!
  • 20 weeks 3 days now.  Had my 17P shot this morning and still taking Procardia every 4 hours.  Slept pretty good, considering its the hospital and people are in and out all day and night!  Still no contractions which is great. 

    I'm hoping my girl gets my nose, as my husbands is a little larger ;-)  But I hope she gets his curly hair and long eyelashes
  • 10-4-congrats on 31! I am right behind you at 30&4.

    I couldn't fall asleep last night because of really bad reflux. I finally did, but then couldn't fall asleep after my 5 am nifedipine dose. Hopefully I can nap today.

    QOTD- I hope the girls get my husband's patience and my blue eyes.

    Slept okay... I feel exhausted and like no amount of sleep us enough!!!!
    Currently waiting for MFM apt... They are running a lil late but I'm excited to see Sawyer

    I hope she has mh eyes (green) and his red hair :)) and my lips and smile

    ETA
    Sawyer is growing well 5 lbs 1 oz
    my fluid is high
    and my blood pressures ae 150's over 90's - still not on any medications (until 150's/100's)
    and peri said to get everything ready and in order prior to 34 week apt with him as he will most likely send me over for hospital obs and monitoring at that point... that gives me only a week!!!!! and severe anxiety!!!! I feel very overwhelmed :-/

  • Boooo had to reschedule my 3D US because baby wasn't cooperating -_- his face was smushed into my lower right hip against the placenta and he would not budge an inch no matter what the sonographer tried!!
    But from what we saw for a few minutes, he's gorgeous and I can't wait to see him again in two weeks :]

  • Hey everyone. I'm not sure I really belong on the check in anymore as I've been told I can start to do more activity now that I'm further along. I've been cleaning tons to make up for two months of husband cleaning! I'm exhausted now after doing anything. I go in on Friday for my next check and to see how my blood pressure is doing. I can't wait to meet my little guy.

    Hubs and I both have curly hair and I would love for Sawyer to get it too.
