Good morning
How did you sleep?
Any new pregnancy symptoms, cravings, or aversions?
Upcoming appointments, milestones, or updates? (Ticker change?)
QOTD: Have you thought about who will be present during your labor & delivery? Will it be just you and your SO? Do you have a parent, friend, or other relative who will be in the room with you? How does SO feel about the possibility of someone else joining you during l&d? Or does your hospital even allow anyone else to be present?
Re: *** Tuesday Bedrest Check-in ***
Heartburn still sucks, bh are getting more intense but I've been trying to practice breathing through them in preparation for the real deal....even though there's no comparison to actual contractions. Also, I woke up with a lower back ache.... hopefully it was just from sleeping in an awkward position I'll definitely be keeping track of the pain today: Stay away ptl!!!!
QOTD: Dh wants for just the two of us to be in the room during l&d, but I kind of want my mom there too. She was there with us when I delivered both of our little angel babies and I don't need her to say or do much just her being there is reassuring for me, but he thinks he won't be free to react how he really wants if she's there.... idk about that one:/ Also, our hospital allows guests to visit while you're in the early stages of labor, I told dh that if we allow visitors I just want it to be maybe 3 people at a time because it gets really overwhelming with so many people in the room!! Right now I feel bad for not wanting everyone in the room but come time I'm sure I'll have no problem kicking people out, especially while I'm in pain; I don't have much patience.
Hi there.. busy day for me, I had to go into work again for a client meeting. I am beat! I didn't sleep well last night either.
Not much is new around here. I'm not sure if the recent QOTD made me more aware of them or what, but I have been feeling the baby's hiccups so much more frequently than ever before! It's like non-stop at this point. She is so active tonight too, I think she is plotting her escape
I don't think I updated afterwards, but I saw my OB yesterday and we are planning to take the cerclage out next Thursday! I can't believe it. I feel like it has taken so long to get to this point, and now everything is happening so fast!
QOTD: It will just be H in the delivery room with me. I have no interest in having anyone else there, and I don't think my mom or MIL have any overwhelming desire to be in there either. My ILs are close by, so they will probably take DD for us until my parents arrive (who are 2 hours away) - I have no idea if they will hang out at the hospital, or at our house - I guess it depends on what time I go into labor and how things are progressing.
@tracint, I hope the contractions/backache are getting better! I hear you on not wanting a lot of people in the room- I have no patience either, especially when I'm in pain/uncomfortable!
OMG I don't even want to ask about pelvic rest at this point. I seriously have no interest and I think I would be scared to! lol.. I will just wait until after the 6 week PP checkup and tell H my doctor said not until then.
Congrats on 32 weeks.. you are so close!
