5/4. L&D is my new home!!
This discussion has been closed.
Re: 5/4. L&D is my new home!!
Oh oh BTW had another big ultrasound today!!! She weighs 5 lbs 8 oz. has TONS of LONG hair!! Plus major chubby cheeks!! Kind of looks like my chin.
So we wait and wait. I figure if I just sleep then she won't come out. I have yet to hear of someone sleeping through labor. Lol
Claire's kidney cysts are looking cancerous so they've scheduled a c-section on May 15th! Sure it might've because of potential bad news and hardship for us, but I'm excited to meet her!!
I hope everyone is doing well! You guys are always on my mind!
Why is it that an unborn child gets a cancer diagnosis. Now I'm a religious person and totally get the "he does what's best even though we don't understand " but seriously. I think my faith has really suffered lately and I hope I get stronger in that area of my life.
I just can't imagine.
But it looks like our princesses may share a birthday!!! May 15 th here too.
I pray for your princess and all our lil ones here. It just gets so hard to have faith when you have the worst sitting in front of you.
I could go on but they already are watching my BP. My SO ex wife is causing me high BP as it is.
My issues are superficial compared to yours. Like I said I'm just good about bitching about things. It's my gift I guess.
I love having this place to come to and do such and have such great ladies that let me just vent and are supportive when I need them too.
I also love to hear about everyone's daily achievements!! We have all been though soo much.
Are you celebrating Mother's Day?
What was your fav meal this week?
Are you running out of clean clothes yet? Do you wear hospital ones or yours?
It was a roller coaster. We are waiting to hear right now on induction. They literally are on the fence every four hours about what to do. I'm kind of thinking this weekend it will happen. All my nurses are saying so too. Waiting to hear back from dr.
Are you celebrating Mother's Day?
I assume if I have her we will make a big deal out of it for sure. I got a few gifts from my SD. A willow tree figurine that has mommy holding two kids. It's her and bean she said. ( not forgetting she also has 3 other sisters, but she is my closest to me. Plus she picked it out on her own) SO got me cards too I know but not sure from there. We don't have Step kids as its Mother's Day.
What was your fav meal this week?
I've had so many yummy foods. My family and friends food is the best by far and people are really stepping up. It feels great to be loved.
Are you running out of clean clothes yet? Do you wear hospital ones or yours?
I wear my own and I set aside a "pack now" and "incase for later piles" I just knew I was not coming home. I have asked SO multiple times to bring me everything that was in the "incase" pile. Real clothes mixed with comfy stuff. He doesn't get it. Brings me shirts that are his... Cuz they will fit but they are beer or stupid guy shirts. I'm really surprised the Irish one that says my penis is Irish was not one he brought up. Finally told my mom and she brought some things from her house. She had gastric surgery so had some bigger clothes. I think it's only fair cuz she is wearing my prepregnancy clothes right now anyways. Lol.
Just patiently waiting!!
( spoken as if I'm on the red carpet)
I am wearing a combination of things. I also have the don't fit anymore problem. However I do have a pj dress that looks like a maxi dress and a Maxi dress that is really comfortable. My shorts are way past booty shorts. Mostly tanks and SO t shirts. Pj type clothes.
My week was pretty good! I had an ultra sound today and all looks good! Baby is 5 lbs, 1 ounce!
Yes, I'm celebrating Mother's Day. DH and my fam will stop by at some points during the day.
Favorite meal this week? Well, for the third time in 3 weeks, we had Lebanese food; me, DH and my sister. I had grilled lamb, rice, fatoosh salad, falafel, hummus and stuffed grape leaves
As for clothes, I had DH bring me my favorite pajamas, yoga pants, maternity shirts and t-shirts. My mom also bought me maternity yoga pants and capris, socks, undies and nursing bras.
I did take advantage of an Old Navy sale when I was admitted and bought a few items because my belly was getting too round for some of my non maternity t-shirts. I had it expedited to my house and DH brought it for me. I've lost weight so some of the clothes are a tad too big, but I don't mind.
Every 3 days I send laundry home with DH
Before I was admitted, I had just done a load of laundry: bras, undies, maxi skirts, shirts and a nice maxi dress. I had DH just grab them for after the baby comes!
Going to have my mom stay tonight. I think I'll need her. If things start getting worse she will bitch until they do something. SO is not good at that. He will just play games on his phone. Plus he snores and this may be my last sleep before labor.
I'm just exhausted, gained so much so fast. My nurses keep making comments about me being puffy and a tick that's ready to pop. Yes I get it ladies. I'm a giant water balloon. I'm ready to pop. Feel like violet from Willie wonka. I can't hardly walk. My joints are full of fluid. All my skin is tight. Question is are they waiting too long? I get that she needs to cook and I'm all for that. I'm just starting to get scared for me now. I've asked for power of attorney and medical will to sign if it goes bad. I trust the dr. It's just getting worse.
What's the latest update on induction? Anything? I'm happy your mom is with you!
@Mom&nurse, praying for you!!
@Ashes92813, yay for the good
2. Not celebrating Mom's Day. Just relaxing with the husband.
3. I have no favorite, but I enjoyed the smoothie I got.
4. I wear my own and am always running out of clean clothes because I don't have many that fit. But my mom and husband have brought me much and alternate on who is doing the laundry.
Waiting till 430 to get more pain meds then my morning routine of tests start again at 630. Will update when I know more. I'm hoping they just let me have her already.
