Re: End of the month-ers check-in!
BFP 11.16.2012 * Natural MC at 9.5 wks 01.1.2013
TTC again in March 2013
Round 3 of 100mg Clomid + 1500mg Metformin BFP #2 06.14.13
I am feeling ok. Sometimes I feel really good, I am still playing tennis about twice a week and trying to be active the rest of the days...but sometimes I am so achy and to be honest I am having weird sharp pains but no clue if it's BH because of the way the doctor described it.
Last weekend we got everything tied up so if she comes early we are ready. However my two areas of panic are that I need to train two people starting next week. The girl who is going to fill in for me and I had to hire a new girl that reports to me so I need her to get in a good place before I go, I really need a few weeks with them.
Also, when I start to think of those first few weeks with no sleep I get a bit worried...I wish I could stick my head in the sand, I am just not one of those people.
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? I am getting to the point where I am pretty tired, mentally and physically. I have had a very easy pregnancy this far so I can't complain, but damn do I want to complain about how my cervix pressure, back contractions, and lack of sleep are making me crazy!
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns? Most just worried about how things will flow if I go in to labor at work. I can't really imagine my kids handling it very well if I have to leave suddenly.
Also, I still worry that our she might come out a he! We didn't really have a gender preference but our nursery and clothes aren't very gender neutral!
I have had rib pain since the first day of the second trimester so I just want this to be over. I also have GD and I'm afraid of needles so that us something else that should be done soon.
It feels like I have so far too go but also it is so close that I am worried.
Feeling a lot better since visiting the chiropractor! She popped my pubic bone and hips back into place so my SPD is practically non existent anymore! Hallelujah!
However I'm so so so tired and having a lot of friction with my DH
I still need to pack my hospital bag and install the car seat, hopefully that will be done this week.
Physically......wahhhhh! I was doing so well until 2 weeks ago, when awful hip pain set in. Sciatica like. Sleep was painful and walking too. I have got to the state where I dread going to bed
Mentally.....last weekend was bad, I cried and felt useless, but after my ob appointment on Monday and we got 2 more weeks for baby to cook I am less anxious and feel so much better, I actually just went to the chiropractor and my sacram (?) is wonky, so he tried to realign it and also tried the websters technique to turn baby. He also complimented me on how tiny I look considering I only have just over 4 weeks to go
I am so glad we have this thread, I am so pleased for all these babies and mums but I still feel like we have a way to go, and it is great to have other ladies at the same stage who are feeling similar. Thank you @Saisongbird, you are awesome.
When are you due? March 26
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? I do not feel great, but I suppose it can always be worse. Physically I hurt everywhere. My right sided rib pain is getting to me more and more each day. I am honestly wondering how I am going to make it 3.5 more weeks of work! Emotionally, I am so over feeling so crappy all the time. Usually I am a high energy person, but I have been barely able to do much of anything.
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns? Just appreciative of @Saisongbird for starting this place for us!
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? My pelvis kills, I have terrible acid reflux, and I miss exercising. If I even walk too fast I get BH and feel out of breath. Rolling over in bed at night is excruciating because of my aching pelvis and today I had some killer lightening crotch and cramps.
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns? I have to see my OB tomorrow and he's going to do the GSB test. I wonder if he will check my cervix too? Should be interesting....
I'm hanging in there and trying to stay positive. Things are not too bad - the usual backaches, swollen feet, trouble sleeping are reminding me of how much I will look forward to getting my body back! I'm really excited to meet the little guy and totally jealous of all these March ladies that already have their outside baby! I know it won't last forever though and when the time is right, he'll be here. Emotionally, I've remained strong and have kept complaints to myself. My H does get to hear how I feel each morning and evening - he's not giving me any sideways looks and is willing to help out even when he's worn out too.
We sold our house two days after putting in on the market in January! That was a whirlwind and now we are leasing it back on a month to month basis with a deadline of July. Well, we found a house and put an offer in two weeks ago. It was accepted and everything is all set. Only problem is, our closing date is 3/19! We can move in anytime after that day - except I will be just days away from my EDD and may even have just had a baby! Life is crazy and hectic, but full of all the positive things life can give you.
-3/31 ughhh
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally?
-ugh so uncomfortable. Lots of pressure and back pain. Emotionally starting to get overwhelmed.. Hard to believe I'll be a single mother in less than 5 weeks.
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns?
-excited for my princess!!
When are you due? 3/27
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? Physically tired I haven't been sleeping well, struggling to get comfortable then peeing a couple times a night. Emotionally I'm good, although not totally mentally prepared that we will have a newborn in the house again next month after 5 years. Mentally feeling a little overwhelmed still have a bunch to get done before the baby arrives.
I am actually feeling good! Odd surge of energy this week so far.
Friday I will be 36 weeks and have my OB Appt (with an internal check and group B Strep), NST and Growth Scan... yay me!
-3/28...glad we have a club going! Makes me feel better.
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally?
-eh, ok. My hips are wonky and I'm really tired, but it could be worse! I also keep getting whacked in the bladder constantly. Mentally, I am so there already! Ha
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments
-I have become addicted a fake ice cream sandwich I saw somewhere, and it is awesome. Paint peanut butter and Nutella on opposite pieces of graham cracker and fill the middle with cool whip...freeze...eat.
-DS has been so cute about his baby sister coming soon. He tells everyone from the bank gals to strangers at the store. Makes me even more excited.
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? My back hurts/I hate everything/I seriously do not have my shut together.
Anything else you want to talk about? I am not ready for this baby.
Questions, comments, concerns? No
How are you feeling - physically/emotionally/mentally? Meh. Could be worse across the board, but I'll be stoked to have an outside baby the moment she feels like she's done cookin'! Really looking forward to bring able to move around like regular human again soon.
Anything else you want to talk about? Questions, comments, concerns? I've just recently suddenly accepted that there's no way to be 100% ready for everything, and totally swung the other way in my baby prep (which is to say I've basically stopped entirely). I think this might be what some have referred to as hitting the wall. Will be interesting to see if there are any further nesting stints in my near future.
How are you feeling: physically everything hurts especially walking and climbing stairs, changing positions in bed, even sex is starting to hurt. I'm sore all over and I still get nosebleeds!! No fun!
Mentally: I'm ok, I think I'm just anxious... I'm working all the way until the end of my pregnancy so it's draining. My boss is trying to get as much out if me as possible.
Emotionally: I feel ok. I think going on here and seeing all the outside babies is making me anxious and eager to meet our daughter. Even though we are at the end, I feel like we have so long to go
Anything else: not really other than thanks for starting this thread! I needed a place to air these feelings. And see that you ladies are going thru the same thing
Physically - just tired. I've been having a very meh week and it's hard to get anything done. I'm waiting for my nesting to kick in.
All these babies showing up make me think mine could come any day! Of course this is a crazy thought because I'm still a month from my due date and DD was 11 days late. While I was always convinced DD was going to be past due, I've had a feeling this will come early. A feeling or just wishful thinking??? We'll see.
I've also done NOTHING to get ready for this baby so in some ways s/he better not come any time soon!
Feeling? Miserable.. My whole body aches and I don't think I am physically capable of sleeping longer then 4hours at a time anymore
She's also measuring 2weeks ahead.. So here's to hoping that she comes a little early.
