Just got home from walk in care - with conjunctivitis (gross!!) now I'm feeling super lightheaded and having backaches, I'm thinking we may have a baby pretty soon!!! What's everyone else up to today?
Haven't been able to sleep for the past couple days, one of the joys of pregnancy haha hopefully it will be a beautiful and better day today then yesterday yesterday I spent my day throwing up and naseous and not being able to take a decent nap. My rocking chair should come in today and the rest of our babies furniture should be here on Thursday so im looking forward to the rest of the week!
Didn't sleep well last night, apparently I drank way too much water before bed. Baby girl has been super active the last few days. Not much going on this week, 35 weeks tomorrow so my weekly appts start next week. Excited to be in the home stretch!
I'm getting my hair braided! Yay! Unfortunately, my lower back pain has amped up so I think I'll take my Tylenol. May visit the Carters outlet...after I get hubby the rest of his father's day gifts. 36w today! Felt so good to fax my work release to my supervisor yesterday!
Y'all, I woke up around 4am with this pain! It was like period cramps and it shot down my right leg! OMG! Contractions?!?! I decided to switch positions and lay on my left side to see if it would help. No such luck. Then I thought it may have been gas or I needed to used the bathroom. So I got up and hobbled to the toilet. Nothing happened. So I laid back down, and eventually the pain went away. I'm guessing it was just one long major BH contraction. When it finally stopped, it never returned. I wasn't really alarmed because my water never broke, nor did I have a bloody show or anything like that. Just felt crampy. LO has been moving around just fine. My doctor's appointment is today, so I'll be sure to let her know. But if that was a practice contraction, Lord have mercy! My periods usually send me to bed in pain, so I can only imagine what labor will feel like! But, the show must go on!
I had my baby shower over the weekend so I'm washing everything and getting organized. I don't think anyone used the registry..so I have a lot to exchange bUT we are very blessed. We got A Lot of stuff! Hubby also had a diaper party so we're pretty much set for a while. My feet are extremely swollen
I'm freaking out over here!!! I just noticed a small bald spot on my Great Dane my Boxer mix seems to look normal. I'm not sure but I'm thinking it could be mange and I have no idea how this could have happened. We have started to take the girls to the dog park since the weather has gotten better so maybe they picked it up there. This is not something I want to be dealing with just 24 days away from my due date....ugh...FML

Boxers have super sensitive skin (we have 2) hopefully it isn't mange and maybe just a bug bite or something like fleas. Best of luck to you. Unless a lot of hair starts falling out and he/she is itching a ton you should be ok.
At my dr appt yesterday dr. Told me he couldn't do my c section the Monday scheduled and had to do it Tuesday. I don't care either way, but that is my nephews birthday and I really don't want my baby having to share a birthday. Idk what to do. Do I move it to Wednesday it leave it Monday and have a different dr. Perform the c section. Or just leave it on Tuesday and have him share a birthday. What would you gals do?
@lovermyboys kinda in the same boat. I'm due very close to my niece's bday and she's NOT thrilled about sharing LOL I'd at least ask if another date is available. If not, they may have to share!

My mom is making a huge stink about the baby maybe coming on HER birthday. I personally couldn't give a fart one way or the other, it's just a day. If you're really adverse to it though, see if you can move the date. Otherwise, i don't see the big deal.
So after my stay for a few hours in L&D yesterday for what I feel like is nothing. I am here collecting my urine for 24hrs for shits and giggles I guess. Right now totally over this Army hospital, I've never had so many test done that I feel totally unnecessary and now I have to go back tomorrow for another NST and then they scheduled me one for Thursday. Really feeling this is over kill for one high blood pressure reading from when I first got there.

Had my doctors appointment today. Baby's head is down, and I'm dilated 3cm! I know that doesn't necessarily mean she's coming any sooner, but it was still surprising to hear. Anyway, now I'm getting ready to go grocery shopping and then I'm ready for a nap!
@mommy1922 thanks just really really annoyed. 3/4 times my blood pressure was taken it was completely normal, my labs were normal it was literally just the first blood pressure when I first sat down that caused all this.

I love to sleep but I dread getting up to pee now, it's such an effort to get my fat ass up and be all waddling to the bathroom cause my hips and back hurt.
I am taking our dog to be neutered tomorrow in a small rural town and I'm supposed to be working remotely but don't know where the hell I'm going to get WiFi out there.
It's going to be 113 degrees tomorrow and that sucks.
Also, I would like to buy a new car before I have this baby but can't decide whether I love the new Jeep Renegade or if it's just too weird.
I have 20 days to go!! Scheduled CS July 6. That's crazy! I was hoping to be all unpacked in our new house by the time she gets here but that probably won't happen. I'm too tired and hot.
Went to BRU with DH to pick up the last few things I wanted from the registry. Have about 5 weeks to go. Dr appt tomorrow, hoping she'll be able to tell me how big she is or if I'll go early. My knees now hurt all the time too.
Tropical Storm Bill stood us up like a cheap date!! We cut our Seaworld trip short, hauled ass back to Houston this am to "beat the storm" and came home to find it literally sprinkling. Damn meteorologists!
Had my weekly appointment/ultrasound today. Baby looks good. Weights 5lb 10oz. I had my last test done (can't remember the name), as well a whopping cough vaccine. My doctor also checked me to see if I'm dilated but I'm not at all (35wks 4days), also was told I haven't gained any weight in a month but baby is growing healthy so I don't know why I haven't gained any weight. I guess I should mention I've only gained 14lbs so far. I'm getting more excited and nervous at the same time because if everything goes right, I'll be having this baby in 3 weeks as I'm hopefully getting induced a week earlier, yay!!!
Random 2: I ate two bowls of cereal earlier, and I was still starving! Lol just finished a single serving bowl of mac and cheese....and a double stack I bought earlier. I think I'm stuffed now! Lol
PS. My GBS swab came back NEGATIVE! One less thing to worry about.
My daughters have a box of leftover candy.. From Halloween, Easter and Christmas.. Some dating back over a year ago.. They don't eat much candy anyways.. I got a sweet tooth so I broke into the big box of candy (not kidding when I say this tote is easily 25 to 30 pounds... Well, it was crawling with sugar ants! (That's how much we actually eat it)
So after cleaning out the saveable candy (fully sealed ones) I found jelly beans!! And am so thrilled. Haha.
I am feeling some slight pelvic pressure today than I did yesterday so that makes me feel good. I am so ready to not be pregnant. I am welcoming any discomfort if it spurs on labor. I feel like that's a good sign for labor. Probably I will play Roar by Katy Perry in my head when that time comes to start pushing! "I GOT THE EYE OF THE TIGER!!!!!!!"
@gotdiesel2007 They did that to me with my last one. I was perfectly fine until the last two weeks...all of the sudden I had high blood pressure, gained too much weight and had low fluid. I swear they just love to make you freak out! The pee thing was because I refused to be induced more than a week early unless they had more evidence to support their opinion.
Other thing...I just want to sleep. I can never get comfortable enough to just fall asleep. I'm so tired I know it will suck at 7am when my 18 month old wakes up full of energy. I swear his feet don't stop as soon as he is out of that crib. I wish I just had a little of his energy
We had our shower over the weekend and I mostly got clothes and diapers so yesterday I went to babies r us and purchased my registry. It's been fun spending the last two days washing her clothes and organizing purchases. Now if only California would cool down a bit!! I'm starting to swell from all the heat haha :-q
Oh! same here I feel lightheaded all day long don't know what to do I work as an RDA and I had to be put off work yesterday .. I couldn't even walk from one room to the other .. when I felt like I was going to pass out .. it really sucks feeling this way I'll be 36 weeks next wed so hopefully I go into labor .. soon
