Sunday Ticker Change 7/13

mrscurlygurl · July 2014

Happy Sunday ladies!

Who got her outside baby this past week???

How many weeks/what fruit, veggie, thing are you OR how old is your outside baby?

Vents/celebrations from the past week?

QOTW: what are you doing or what do you plan to do to pass the time during those late night feeds?

Bonus: PIP your baby or your bump! (I do miss my bump sometimes...I know, I'm weird :P)

Baby girl is 10 days old today. We ventured out of the house for the first time today (not counting doctor visits) to accompany big brother and daddy to the park. She and I just say in the shade though where she spent most of the time nursing.

Celebrations: we had a follow up echo on Tuesday and while there is still evidence of the right ventricle being thicker than the left, the doc didn't seem concerned and just wants us to come back in 4 months for a repeat echo.
Also...had a weight check on Wed and she was back up to 6 lbs, 11oz...only 3oz shy of her 6.14 birth weight! This means we don't have to do a weight check next week and can just return for her one month appt

During the night I peruse FB, TB, or read on my kindle Fire. I've been on the wait list for Insurgent (2nd book in the Divergent series) for like 6 months with the library and I finally got it. Woo hoo!

Gabrielle is 8 days old!

Celebration: Her jaundice levels finally started to decrease! Woohoo.

Vent: I'm having breastfeeding issues. Because of her jaundice I had to make sure to feed her at least every 2.5 hours plus I had to pump extra milk to give her because I refused to give her formula. Because of that I am now over producing milk and she never seems satisfied after a nursing session. She is also tongue tied and my ENT appointment isn't until the end of the month. So tomorrow I have an appointment with a lactation consultant so I can get these issues resolved hopefully.

At night I just peruse different news apps on my phone and social media but I'm usually just struggling to stay awake at that point haha.

39 weeks here and watermelon...ugh, lol. I prefer to EAT watermelons, not think of them as something the size of the kiddo in my uterus.

My last day of work before Maternity Leave (aka FMLA) was last Thursday. Still seems sort of surreal to me. Weird to not think of going to work tomorrow, though I know I will definitely appreciate this all when baby comes! Going to try to take it easy but still get a few things done in the meantime.

I have no idea how I'm going to handle the nighttime feedings. I'm still new to all this and not sure how they'll play out, exactly. I probably should stay away from the ipad/iphone though, since in general I have a hard time getting back to sleep and so I'll need to stay as sleep-ready as possible so once baby's good to go, I am too!

40 weeks-a jackfruit

Still dealing with my brain issue, wish I could find a doctor that can actually figure out how to treat it without making me zombi.

Once LO gets here I'll be loving my nook even more along with my iPhone during feedings at night.

38 weeks and a pumpkin!

Vents/Celebrations: I'm a little worried about LO. The last few appointments, my doc has said that my AFI is decreasing, which is a sign of an aging/declining placenta. I've asked him before about the likelihood of being induced because of GD or my anti-coagulation regimen, and he's said that I'm not a good candidate, and he doesn't expect me to be (cervix is closed and thick) any time soon; inducing would probably just mean a c-section in the end. Now that her fluid levels keep declining, though, he said I should be prepared for induction if they dip to a 5 (I was a 7 last time). Now I'm worried that I'll need to go for an induction and wind up with a section anyway...which I don't mind in principle, but I don't love the idea of laboring forever trying to induce and winding up in surgery anyway. So that's my vent/worry. I don't know if anyone has been in a similar situation, but I'd love to hear good things (or bad!) if you have...

QOTW: I watch episodes of whatever cool show I'm into on Netflix or Amazon on my iPad now to fall asleep, so I think that and reading my nook are my go-to late night activities in general and will continue to be after LO arrives.

Dylan is 11 days old! Vents: none, really. Just tired and trying to keep ds1 on his schedule. Celebrations: his bilirubin went down and he's more alert and eating better. We have his 2 week appt on weds where they will do a weight check and hopefully he will be back to birth weight. QOTW: DH and I split feeding duties so that neither of us are complete zombies (hooray!). I usually go on Facebook or play a couple games on my phone. Ds2 is usually a no nonsense eater in the motn, so it's eat, burp, change diaper, swaddle and back to sleep.

Congrats to all of those mommas with outside babies, I'm super jealous!

38 weeks and a pumpkin!

Vents: the normal... can't sleep, crazy dreams, sore all of the time, starting to get nauseous a lot

Celebrations: 2 more week hopefully until I finally get to meet my LO!

QOTW: I have no idea what I will do...I have no fb, twitter, instragram or anything like that so I will probably just bump or watch tv.

38 weeks--a pumpkin!

Celebrations: DH and I celebrates our two year wedding anniversary this past week! Had a nice day of just spending time together and went out for dinner.

Vents: no progress with dilation/effacement yet. Been feeling like crap this weekend too so I don't know if that means labor is imminent or my life just sucks.

QOTW: I'm hoping feeding time will be when I can pull out my Nook and catch up on some reading.

39 weeks and Bug is a watermelon!
My fur baby has been more clingy this past week, so I hope he can sense something happening!

Celebrations: we picked a pediatrician and finished up getting all the registry items that I wanted to get for her. Also, I have a prenatal massage and a pedicure on my schedule tomorrow.

Vents: I wish I had pelvic pain from her dropping...instead she remains nice and comfy up in my ribs...I think she's trying to hold onto them to stay in there. Also not sleeping well, so getting quality time with DH has been rough lately.

Super jealous of those of you with outside babies!

QOTW: my mom got me an iPad recently. I am so excited cause I plan on using the crap out of that during MOTN feedings.

You're in Atlanta @milestrellas‌? How did I miss that?!? I can't believe he's 8 weeks already!
