  • @starphish18 Fingers crossed the monitor shows no concerns, but sounds like your doctor is on the right track to take extra precautions with your family history!

  • That's awesome the tumor is shrinking!!! @RainyDays86
  • @Jkp7749 Does your OB have an after hours line you can call?  I think it's always better to ask the experts and I know I wouldn't sleep well worrying about it.

  • I'm so torn! I checked the "pad" and there was nothing and i just peed a whole bunch more so i can't imagine that I'm not empty! i just feel leaky but whenever i check, its not wet now! I'm thinking i just drank too much?? I feel pretty certain its pee now that ive checked a few times, so im thinking ill wait a little longer... If nothing else happens I'll call in the morning since its not that long but if any more happens I'll call right away
  • @Jkp7749 Definitely do not worry about calling too much or going into triage. Even if you didn't have the other context (modified bed rest), I'd encourage you to call. Follow your gut mama ;) Fingers crossed that you keep those sweet growing babies in longer! You're doing great <3

  • @RainyDays86 woo hoo to the shrinking tumor! Love hearing good news like that.
  • Dear diary over here but I'm feeling sorry for myself and wishing I could call into work today. I've about recovered from my cold but it has all settled/hardened into my sinuses and I have the headache from hell. As in, I tossed and turned all night until it was late enough to take an Excedrin. I am not sure how I will take care of patients for 12 hours if this doesn't improve. I am glad I was at the Dr yesterday with normal BP or I'd be worried about that too. Sorry I'm just having a pity party over here and needed to get it out into the world. Thanks for listening  :/
    Ugh hugs. This as me yesterday. I hope you start to feel better throughout the day.
  • @Jkp7749 I hope you went and got checked! Hopefully it's not your water breaking. 
  • @SKZW - I love that you bought your son a doll!! We bought DS a baby girl doll when we found out we were expecting, and call the doll by the baby's name. DS is adorable with it. He's only 1 1/2, so I didn't have a lot of expectations with it, but we've kind of worked on the right way to sit with the baby and taught him "soft" so that when he touches her, he wont be Hulk Smashing her. He also regularly plays with baby dolls at daycare - I actually just got a video of it from them yesterday. He was holding the doll up to his shoulder like you would a regular baby and walking around patting its back. I can say honestly that we haven't taken it that far, so I'm not sure how he picked up on that but it was pretty damn cute! The only comments I've gotten about it are from my brother, but he's basically a Neanderthal so I was expecting it.

    @chocolatelemons - I wouldn't worry too much about your weight unless your doctor brings it up. The baby does a lot of growth during the third trimester, and so you may find that you gain 10 pounds out of no where in the coming weeks!! I have a coworker who had trouble gaining enough weight, and her doctor just had her add Ensure to her diet on a daily basis the last 2 months of her pregnancy.

  • @Jkp7749 Fingers crossed it was just pee!
  • @SKZW , the stove is really awesome--my son's favorite part is that you can pump the water through the faucet, so it's sort of like a functioning sink. DEFINITELY a score for $14.

    @kns1988 so sorry about the house.  It's so disappointing when that happens but being able to hold back from buying it is the best thing in the long run.  You will find another house that won't be broken.  And also sorry about your adventures yesterday.  I can't believe there are people out there still being so rude and hateful.  Im glad you eventually made it to the class! 
    @kns1988

    This. I work for a Realtors Association and this is absolutely correct. Sadly, the process doesn't always work out for the best. It's just a sad reality of home buying. I hope this happened for a reason and you find something even better that comes along! 
  • Got the call today...3 he GTT for me! And slightly anemic so need iron pills...yay

  • @SKZW , should have mentioned this in my comment about the sink, but it's early and I haven't finished my coffee...we bought DS a doll for his 2nd birthday (before we were expecting) and he's just been kinda "meh" about it. Of course, I spent an inordinate amount of time trying to find an anatomically correct baby boy doll, haha...I do hear from daycare that since finding out about baby sister on the way, he's been playing with dolls every now and then. It's so funny how societal gender roles manifest themselves so early--my son LOVES trucks, balls, stuffed animals, and super heroes (serious WTF on that one, because we have never had a single super hero thing in our house mostly just because I hate licensed kids junk). But has no interest in dolls, princesses, dress up, etc (even though we encourage open play and discourage traditional gender roles). He does, however, have an affinity for flamingos and all things pink, but recently has started telling me "mommy, my favorite color is blue". Sigh.

    @SKZW we bought my son a baby doll for Christmas and he aactually really likes it! When we were in Disneyland last month he also really wanted a Moana doll (similar to a Barbie) so we got that as well. They definitely don't get played with as often as the legos and cars, but every so often he will get them out and cover them up, get them a bottle, etc. It's the cutest!  One of his favorite make believe games right now is also when he asks me to be the baby and he pretends to be the mama. He has me ask him for bottles, puts me down for "nap" and reads me books.

  • @ShadeofGreen816 I'm sorry you're feeling crappy and I hope your day turns around!

    @Jkp7749 FX it's just pee!

    @BabyMC517 sorry you have to do the three hour!

    @Kipperoo we've had the same experience with DS! We never pushed any typically "male" stuff on him and it's amazing how he gravitated to trucks and other machines. He's also obsessed with dinosaurs. We bought him a doll too to get ready for the the baby and while he has occasionally shown an interest he's pretty ambivalent to it.
  • @Jkp7749 I'll be thinking of you and hoping everything comes back good!

  • @Jkp7749 hoping everything turns out alright!
  • @Jkp7749 Your belly is beautiful. Screw all the people who say you look too small or ready to pop. Seriously. Fingers crossed for you! Many many STMs have a cervix that starts changing early - wishing good gestating thoughts for you.

  • Ok ladies I'm having what feels exactly like my RLP but it's not going away.  It's sharp pain on my left side that is worse with movement.  If it keeps going I am going to text my OB but it's frustrating me.  Has anyone had RLP not associated with a specific movement?  Usually I have it when I get up out of a chair or if I'm rolling over in bed or something and then it goes away. This is alright but not gone when im resting but pretty persistent when I'm walking or moving.  
  • @Kipperoo - I got my 2.5-year-old a baby Stella doll for xmas, and he's pretty indifferent. He has, however, taken a fancy to the stuffed pink flamingo I bought for the baby's room. Apparently, it's HIS "fahmingo" now.

    @Jkp7749 - Hope everything checks out ok!
  • @ShadeofGreen816 - I would recommend going to the doctor if your sinuses don't clear up soon. I am finally goung today after 3 weeks of misery because my cold is more like a sinus infection that I wish would've have been treated sooner. Sorry that you're not feeling well!

    @Jkp7749 - FX for you! Also, why do people always think it's ok to comment on bumps? No, just no.
