QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
Thoughts and well wishes goes to:
Jessys_Girl, has been put on modified bed rest due to a short cervix and its contracting. She is taking steroids to increase the LO?s lungs and has to check her sugar 4 times a day due to this. LO needs to cook a little more, she asks for T&P please!
Kelcat, going to a high risk specialist due to elevated BP and her cervix has shortened 3/10 of a centimeter to 2.3cm. She may be put on bed rest because of it. UPDATE: cervix is now 3cm and she?s off bed rest CONGRATS!
StrawberryAlarmClock, on modified bed rest due to high BP
Aa+C, has found out she has a uterine fibroid and has another u/s Feb. 10th to see if it's interfering with babies growth and to determine if it's covering her cervix creating a need for a c-section. They are really hoping for a natural delivery so they?re hoping this isn't the case! Keep us updated! GL!
Mrs. R. W., hospitalized bed rest for the duration of her pregnancy due to leaking amniotic fluid. She asks for T & P please! Keep us updated hun!
my1andonly, she is currently in the hospital on bedrest 8cm dilated, please keep her in your thoughts and prayers she needs to last until December 15, 2009 to get to 24 weeks
UPDATE: my1andonly said goodbye to her beautiful son 13 hours after delivery on 12/17/09. Our hearts go out to her and her family.
CharlotteBelle, she lost her son on 11/20/09
carolinah, she found out she is a carrier for a genetic disorder that effects the liver and ability for the LO to break down protein. Good luck over the next couple of weeks/months until you find out if you?re LO has this disorder. Good Luck at the u/s this week! UPDATE: She is having a girl and the chance goes down to 25% and it?s much more manageable with a female rather than a male! CONGRATS GUYS!
Jen N El, her little boy has two heart defects that need to be watched over the next few months. Please T&P that he will not need immediate open heart surgery! Next appt is Nov 30th and amino results right around then or right after due to the holidays. Amino results came back good and all testing has been normal! They go in for another u/s today (12/16) and hoping for good news! Good luck and congrats so far guys! UPDATE: echo u/s came back with good results and the doctor is happy the baby is measuring 1-2 weeks ahead of schedule! Next u/s is 1/13. Congrats and rest up over the holidays guys!
MNdesigner, she lost her twin boys due to pre-e our thoughts and prayers go out to her and her DH.

Re: *~* April Due Drops Check In *~* Monday
Please add team blue to ours. : )
The first meal I want is a chili cheese hot dog from Sonic...yum!
Morning ladies! I can't believe I'll be 30 weeks tomorrow! where has the time gone? I'm doing great, I have limited my sugar intake the last 2 weeks and I feel better and I have lost a lb! Maybe I wouldn't have as many stretch marks if I had done this sooner! oh well! We're going to get the crib this week I can't wait!!!! I'm trying to find a coupon online but haven't found anything, anyone know where to find one?
For my first meal, I want to say pizza, I love pizza

QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
I am not so worried about a meal per say (most of the foods I eat have been Okayed by my doctor), but I cannot wait to have a Blue Moon! I have been smelling my husband's beers all football season and I cannot wait!
My Chart
Morning Due Drops!
QOTD: Probaby pizza for me. A nice hot, cheesy slice of pepperoni lovers pizza...yum-o!
I way say wine..but I know I have to wait awhile for that! ;-)
A nice steak or something spicy!
Good morning, ladies!
I want a Jersey Mike's turkey and roast beef on white, Mike's Way but hold the tomatoes. And a glass or two of red wine but that one might have to wait until I'm home.
Liam is 5!
Happy monday everyone!!
QOTD: My first meal after DS was Wendy's fast food. . . and it tasted fantastic. I delivered at 5:05pm, so by the time I got into the post-partum room I had missed dinner at the hospital. My dad picked up the food for me and DH on his way to meet his new grandson. So good. So this time, depending on what time I deliver, I would probably pick something similar. High in fat and salt and I won't feel guilty for a second!!
my blog :: the domestic wannabe
Morning! I've been home with food poisoning for most of the weekend so thinking about food right now makes me green!! But I made it to work so we'll see if I can make it through the day....
But to answer your question: I have had no real cravings this pregnancy and don't feel deprived at what I'm eating. But I really want a big glass of red wine but I think that will be frowned upon at the hospital. Anything but that aweful hospital food will most likely due it for me.
It's Monday...boo! Have a great day anyway.

.
Good Morning ladies!
So tried this Monday morning... it so rainy this morning and windy and gross.
As i have GD- i would love to have a big old cupcake! with sprinkles.
Sending lots of T&P to all who need them!
I cant believe i have past the 28 week mark. Our little blueberry is getting closer and closer. i cant wait!
Happy week to all.
I didn't answer the question in my first post...
I want a blue steak and a pint of Stella. I haven't had steak since getting pregnant because of the way I prefer it, so I can't wait to have that again. I have been eating sushi (just not the raw stuff) so I haven't missed it.
QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
A giant margarita!
Happy Monday!
I agree, I can't wait for a glass of wine
Today is amazing - ticker change day rolling over into 29 weeks!
I have my maternity photo session scheduled at the beginning of my 33rd week.
I now have two showers scheduled for the end of February and a third co-ed shower/party TBD for March.
I am waiting on my 3 hour glucose test results. I had to do that this Saturday morning and it wasn't the best time...but it wasn't the worst either. I just don't want to manage my carbs as strictly as I would with GD. Lazy of me, I know. It's just the truth.
QOTD: I think my first meal afterward would be as many snack foods as I can get my hands on - string cheese, apple, yogurt, PB&J on wheat, a nice tall glass of milk...foods that are hearty but not heavy.
Good Morning everyone. I don't really know what I want for my first meal, I guess whatever sounds good at the time.
Hope everyone is doing well.
QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
As for me? I would love to have the different kinds of sushi that I didn't have during my pregnancy. I had a few that were not raw fish, but just as yummy for me. But other than that.. I can't think of much I would love to have.. There is one thing I do miss that I smell every morning.. COFFEE! Or should I say, venti soy triple mocha with toffee nut flavoring but hold the whipped cream!
Good morning ladies, and happy Monday
For my first meal I would love to have to have some Thai Curry! I love curry, but during this pregnancy it has not loved me back....lol, and if curry doesn't work out, then I want a nice big piece of steak!
So yesterday was a really bad day for me. I ended up going to L&D for some strong/consistant BH's. They pretty much pumped me so full of water that my eyeballs where swimming! After about 5 hours they finally lessened in intensity, checked my cervix, and I was on my merry way.....man those internals are alot more painful than I ever remember with DD!

So this is my first time posting in 3rd Trimester and it's very exciting for me!
First meal? A hot dog. I really miss them.
First drink? Red wine. I miss that more than hotdogs..
Oh, and add me to TEAM GREEN!
QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
I want some pasta and beer. Simple to please me.
I'm still in L&D, waiting on my OB, I'm praying everything looks great today and we'll be released. I've been here over 48 hours on monitored bed rest. Keep your fingers crossed for us.
QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
I don't care as long as it has a margarita on the side.
All updated ladies!
After reading the posts I will say I can not wait to relax at home with a dinner and a big glass of wine, but I'm going to wait until I start pumping (at least 3 weeks) so I can pump and dump afterwards.
[url=http://www.thebump.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=UBB&utm_campaign=tickers][img]http://global.thebump.com/tickers/tt1a1ae8.aspx[/img][/url]
QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
There's an O'Charleys across the street: Baked potato soup and a berry lemonade. I haven't been able to have lemonade since I finished first trimester.
sushi and a glass of cabernet.....oh I can't wait!!
Love the QOTD! I have GD so with DD I wanted Olive Garden and a piece of black tie moose cake. I ended up taking 1 bite, because I was so tired and just didn't feel like eating.
This time I really haven't put much thought into I guess incase the same thing happens again. I might save my 2nd meal for my Favorite.
QOTD: What do you think you want to have as your meal after you deliver?
I don't want/need anything special. I think with DD I had a chicken sandwich. I know people talk about a big steak dinner but I had DD at 11:44am and didn't have breakfast so I was starving and just picked whatever sounded good from the hospital menu!
Update: I am currently on modified bedrest until I deliver, I have low amniotic fluids. I go in once a week for non-stress test to monitor it.
QOTD: After I deliver I think I would either want a peanut butter & jelly sandwich and a big glass of milk OR In&Out cheeseburger, fries & a milkshake!
Happy Monday everyone! Maybe if I type it - I'll believe it! LOL I hate Mondays (when I have to work).
Please add me to TEAM BLUE!
Painted the nursery this weekend - got the crib and bedding and some fabric bins to hold stuff, so it's coming along.
Shower 2/6 and 2/27 so I can't wait to see all the stuff and how my BFFL's put the shower together!
QOTD - Prob jump on board with everyone and say a nice steak, probably a large margarita on the rocks, no salt. (I'd say wine but I've had a glass here and there throughout), and a Cinnabon cinnamon roll (have GD so it'll be nice to eat that guilt free!)
P.S. Today is DH and my 13th wedding anniversary!
This is a great question, except for that it's making me hungry for lunch.
I think a milkshake would be a pretty good reward for delivering a baby, maybe strawberry, maybe chocolate.
Tonight DH and I are headed to our childbirth prep class, #3 out of a six week class. I am enjoying it so much more than I anticipated. The teacher is fantastic, the class is full of real, useful information and coping techniques, and the other parents are really friendly and talkative. I also like that the class doesn't preach that one method of childbirth is better than another. It is such a lovely way to bond with DH, think about the baby, and the special process we are going through as a family.
I just hadn't thought about labor that much until now, and I certainly hadn't considered what the pain of childbirth really means. One interesting concept we discussed in class: pain in labor is different from pain when you injure yourself. It signals that your body is working hard, labor is progressing, and the process is working. The pain is intermittant and you can rest in between, and it's not like in the movies where the mom is often depicted at the highest peak of contraction from beginning til end! This made me feel less scared of the pain.
I'm wondering if you all are thinking more about labor now that we are in the third trimester. How have your thoughts about it changed?
