Re: **Saturday Ticker Change**
The Good: baby is just kicking like crazy
The Bad: more pressure...thinking he has dropped some
The Ugly: GD is no fun!
Weirdest thing you indulged in while being prego if any: nothing really weird...I wanted wings all of the time in the beginning but thanks to GD that stopped quick
Good: 3 weeks left, possibly 2.
Bad: I still have way too much to do before little but gets here.
Ugly: the pain. Ugh.
GTKY: I haven't really craved anything weird. I guess the weirdest would be chips and sour cream.
Good: Still the kicking. There's only 24 more days left until my RCS!! I feel less like a house then I did a couple of weeks ago, it really helps not to eat sweets all the time. I'm excited to stay healthier after the little guy is here.
the bad: still the pain. I decided to try to eliminate more histamine foods (I'm intolerant), along with the GD diet, so things are a little better. But managing both still bites my ass.
The ugly: Not exceptionally ugly, but for the first time I had the impending doom feeling of life as I know being turned upside down once this one is here struck. However, it quickly passed. I'll be able to trade in some of the dietary troubles that are making life difficult at his birth, so life will be easier and I'm just going to focus on that.
Nothing crazy in the craving category. Just lots of sugar stuff, which it seems like I'm in good company, as I can say too that the GD solved that!
The Good: 6 weeks!!! God willing of course. She's back to kicking more often. I've organized a little more of the tiny human stuff... My best friend who was told she had 0% chance of having a baby and only 10% chance with IVF decided they were just going to adopt a few months back. She sent me a pregnancy test picture this week- she is pregnant- I'm calling it her miracle baby! I'm so excited!
The Bad: still don't feel prepared and that I need to run out and buy all of the things. I need to remember I still have my baby shower in two weeks.
The Ugly: GD. No sleep- I almost cried last night because I couldn't get comfortable. Thank you hormones.
Weirdest thing you indulged in while being prego if any... Nothing weird I don't think... Orange soda and pinapple... Although not together.
Good: sciatic pain is easing some. Thank you Jesus!
Bad: sciatic pain has been replaced by swollen feet. Ugh
Ugly: my pelvic bone feels like it is being broken in half by a ax, a hot ax...fun stuff
Weird food: hmmmm...golden oreos and quesadillas..DEElicious!
Good: LO was confirmed head down at my appt this week So much for that irrational fear.Yay. Stay that way LO. . I was kinda disappointed my NP didn't do a cervical check even though it's uncomfortable as heck, but I would like to know if I'm dilating of effacing. I don't go back for another 2 weeks.Also only 4 half days left of work and we're out for the summer!
Bad: not really bad but nerve racking. I realized I had DS 2 weeks from now. I don't feel ready yet even though I know I am. And I do hope she makes an early (healthy and fully developed) 38 week appearance like DS as I would get a little more time with her during summer break from work if she makes a late June appearance.
Ugly: this heartburn is unreal! It has me constantly stank-facing like Katrina from Juno. Bad before but straight up ugly now. At least my house doesn't smell like Lipton landing....
GTKY: nothing weird this pregnancy. I've been sick the whole time so me and food really don't mix. I do indulge in a lot of hot Cheetos and Takis though.. But that's getting really difficult if I haven't taken my Zantac and zofran. Is it bad that I eat it anyway knowing the heartburn will happen?
37 Weeks: Winter Mellon
Daily NST continuing. Every day seems to bring another drama. One day the contractions are every 3-4 minutes. The next day he was having D cells and I was sent to the hospital for more observation and he was not moving well. Thursday he did not move at all and was sent for more monitoring. Friday everything looked okay. My OB has been out of town and I feel like her partners were not as aggressive or cared because I was not their patient. I really believe that my doctor would have induced me. I just hope he does not go into distress...I just have a feeling it is going to happen and I am going to end up with an emergency C-Section because of it.
March 2013: First TTC trip to RE, On 1500 mg Metformin, April 2013: PCOS and Endometriosis, May 2013: DH Low volume; Femara 7.5 mg + IUI #1 = BFN, July 2013: Femara 7.5 mg + IUI #2 = BFN, August 2013: Femara 7.5 mg (X5) + Bravelle (X7) + Ovidrel + IUI #3 + Endometrin = BFP MC at 5w3d,
October 2013: Follistim (X14) + Ovidrel + IUI #4 + Endometrin =BFP!!!
The good: um....all I got is that I'm term now.
The bad: The swelling is getting worse. My shoes aren't going to fit soon!
The ugly: My pelvis feels like it's going to break in half. The pain makes it very difficult to find a comfortable position and sleep only comes in 1-2 hr intervals. I look like a hobbling old woman when I walk. SPD sucks!
GTKY: Nothing too strange here! I only wanted to eat Mexican food for the first part of 2nd tri.
The Good: Feeling pretty good, I'm trying to get as much done while I feel this way as possible. I have been quite tasky this weekend and have accomplished SO MUCH!!
The Bad: Had an u/s on wednesday (and everything looked great!) but during it I was informed that I was having contractions. I feel dumb because I have been feeling those a lot lately AND did not think it was contractions. I'm a STM, I should know better!!
The Ugly: My sugar numbers haven't been great, still within the normal range, just not as great as before, it makes me sad.
My cravings have switched back and forth all the time, nacho dorito's, anything maple syrup related (Canadian all the way), anything citrus - grapefruit with maple syrup: yes please :-)
Late (as usual).
Week/Fruit: 36 weeks, Honeydew melon
The Good: Lots of movement still going on. DH and I have finally picked a first name for this little guy so now all that's left is deciding on the middle names! And we're going to order DDs twin matress etc tomorrow for her big girl bed so we can finally move the crib (she's in the toddler bed configuration of it right now) out and get the nursery put together.
The Bad: So much annoying crap: vicious heartburn, sore back, BH, short of breath, swelling in my feet, so tired all the time and still having bouts of m/s at least once a week...
The Ugly: My hip pain is out of control and it's only getting worse as baby boy drops down. I can't sit, stand, lie down, walk, bend etc without shooting pains from my hips to my ankles now and I'm lucky to get an hour of sleep at a time before I am in so much pain that I wake up.
GTKY: Nothing really strange, although I could have really used a piece of cheesecake for breakfast this morning!
