Your new siggy pic is adorable :) How are you?

Re: RubyRed

  • Thanks :) My brother took it on Easter! And him and I ended up cooking the whole Easter dinner for our family. My mom was so sick! But I'm doing alright, feel like I'm back in 1st tri again with being sick to my stomach all the damn time again! Did you get that at all? How are you? Have you been back to the dr at all this week? How's the BR going?

  • Aww that sucks that your mom was sick for Easter but sweet of you guys to cook! Is it like M/S or just nausea? First tri was the absolute worst for me. BR is going ok- I'm not on complete BR so  I can get up for a few hours during the day! I hate to sit around all the time I feel so useless! I went to the dr on Monday for the NST and she said everything looked great :) So YAY for that! We have a growth scan on Friday so hopefully more good news will be coming our way!!!! Oh, I lost two lbs too... WTH??? Dr. said it's because of BR, w/e she didn't seem to think too much of it!
  • It's just nausea, I never actually got sick except once in 1st tri. I feel lucky for that, just was nauseous all day long.

    I'm so glad things are looking good!! What's NST stand for? I hope your little girl is growing in there! If she hasn't grown any, what are they going to do?

  • Non-Stress Test. Basically all they do is put two straps around your tummy one with the small round doppler to measure the baby's heartbeat and the other gadget (not sure what it is actually) to measure uterine activity. The machine prints out the baby's heart rate with a line on paper and you have to push a button whenever the baby moves. I guess they do this to measure baby's heart rate while active and non-active! Not sure of all the medical terminology! They pretty much are looking for a steady beat while not active and then an increase whenever they move around!

    Not sure what they will do if there is no growth??? At the absolute worst it will be induction I'm sure! Hopefully it wont go there. I am really hoping there has been some kind of growth since I've been on BR and apparently that's supposed to help! I will update after the appt! Just a little bit nervous but there's nothing I can do but pray and keep to my BR :) Wow that was really long Sorry LOL

  • Ahh okay! Makes sense. I remember you saying you had to go for that now. How long did you have to sit there doing that?

     I really do hope everything goes well on Friday! I'll be thinking about you! Better be drinking lots of water too! Wasn't that an issue as well? Low fluid?

  • Yeah Normal-Low fluid... not sure that they can do anything about that??? I was hooked up for maybe 30 minutes, it wasn't bad though I got to sit in a really comfy rocker/recliner so it was pretty relaxing Stick out tongue
  • Haha at least it wasn't like an hour, I'd forget to click the thingy!
