*~*Tuesday Ticker Change - Inside&Outside Babies*~*

littlepig2

Since last week's ticker change was pretty light and it seems like most of you ladies are already snuggling your precious LO's, I decided to make this week's ticker change for those of us who are still pregnant and who already have their outside babies.

((I apologize for not having the list of Tuesday ticker ladies and their teams but for some reason, my Mac hates it and I can't get it to post.))

Symptoms/How Are You Feeling:

Question of the Week: This week's question is lame because I'm too uncomfortable to think of a good one, haha. Sorry! How did you wind up living where you are now? (state, town, etc.) Did you grow up in the state but move to a different town, move to be with SO/job related reasons, or move because you wanted a change of pace?

Week/Fruit: 40 weeks, a jackfruit!

Upcoming Appointments: my next appt is tomorrow early afternoon. I'm glad I made it this far since the scare at 33 weeks but my goodness am I ready for this little lady to make her appearance. I think she took my pleas to stay in there a few weeks ago a little too seriously

Symptoms: very crampy, my back and hips are killing me, and lots of contractions but nothing that's really regular. I'm praying that I have made SOME changes from last week's appointment and I think I'm going to ask to have my membranes swept tomorrow. my OB also induces a week past EDD so hopefully we'll talk about that tomorrow as well.

QOTW: I've always lived in South Jersey (with the exception of going to North Jersey for college) but was over by the beach. I moved to this side of the state (Philly side) for my teaching job and met DH a few months before that. He lived here so after a while, I moved in with him and we stayed! We did recently move to the town that I teach in and I really, really love it. Closer to my parents and an overall much nicer town than where we were before. I miss living so close to the beach in the summer but at least my parents are still there for visits!

@mrsamberd I'm so sorry to hear that there still isn't any progress. hang in there! the leg pain is the worst and I swear I'm more anxious now than I was at any other stage of this pregnancy. you're not alone!

@sjelwood boo to your doctor making you wait another week! I think I would have broken down in tears. that's exciting about your upcoming move, though!

Week/Fruit / Weeks PP: 41 / outside baby!!!

Updates/Appointments/Milestones: Milo Nicholas was born last Tuesday on his due date. I was sent for induction on Monday after my OB appt for high BP and preE. The doc on call freaked me out by saying I would probably need a csec bc big baby and small pelvic opening, but luckily LO made it on his own after 6 1/2 hours of labor, 4 of which I went through med free but man are pitocin contrax no joke! I was having them every 30 to 45 seconds and finally decided to get the epi which was such sweet relief. 2 1/2 hrs later and 30 mins of pushing, Milo was born! Pic below.

Symptoms/How Are You Feeling:
I had no swelling during pregnancy but blew up after delivering and am still swollen and obviously the lady bits are still painful and am super sleep deprived but so happy to be able to snuggle my LO.

Question of the Week:
My family moved to ATL when I was in high school for my dad's job and I just ended up staying here bc this where DH and I met and where all our family is now. I am originally from Portland though.

Nice to see all of the Tuesday gals! Congrats to those with outside babies!

Week/fruit: 40 weeks/jackfruit (whatever that is...)

Updates/appointments/milestones: I was 2cm (barely) and 75% last wed. I have another appointment tomorrow and I'm really hoping for progress! OB said last week that if no baby by this week, we would set a date for induction. So, looks like one way or another I will have a baby within a week or so!

Symptoms/ how are you feeling? Ready to have this baby and not be pregnant! Sore hips, back & ribs. Horrible heart burn. Some swelling in my hands and feet. Just ready to be done and get to snuggle my little boy!

QOTW: Well, I grew up here in Indiana, but I was a city girl till I met DH. I grew up in downtown Fort Wayne (currently the 2nd largest city in IN I think), and I had never really considered not living in a city.
Then I met DH, who grew up in the country, about an hour drive south of Ft. Wayne. Somehow he convinced me to move to the country with him...it took me a while, but I have grown to love it out here. We have a house on 2 acres, raise chickens and ducks, and I love it!
We are about an hour drive from my family, and right around the corner from MIL/FIL (which is a blessing and a curse...).

Week/Fruit / Weeks PP: DS is 4w today

Updates/Appointments/Milestones: last week, DS had his 3w appointment: 10lb, 6oz; 22 1/4" ... Doing great

Symptoms/How Are You Feeling: back to my old self

Question of the Week: This week's question is lame because I'm too uncomfortable to think of a good one, haha. Sorry! How did you wind up living where you are now? (state, town, etc.) Did you grow up in the state but move to a different town, move to be with SO/job related reasons, or move because you wanted a change of pace? Moved up here about 9 years ago to be with an ex. Didn't work out - he left and I stayed. I'm just 90min from my family, so it's not a bad distance at all.

We've been at our house for about 6 years now.   I told SO (now my DH) that I was moving out of my parent's house one way or another. And he could move with me if he wanted to.
