Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Any appointments this week?

I have an appointment on Monday and an ultrasound on Saturday.

Regular OB checkup Tuesday.

Nothing too exciting but grateful to still be pregnant at 33w4d.

Just finished my first NST of the week and BPP, girls passed with flying colors! Bunch of contractions still but no change so no biggie I guess. Next NST Friday!

@LastMango you're doing awesome keeping that baby cooking!!

Copying off of @tinabelcher Had my first NST this morning. Went well. I have a regular appointment on Wednesday and NST again on Friday.

Love it @lastmango!! I am sort of glad I don't know what my cervix is doing at this point. I just want to keep riding this wave lol

I had an NST and BPP this morning, he passed! I have another one Wednesday. Today feels like a huge accomplishment since I had DS1 at exactly 31 weeks. Hopefully little man keeps growing and passing his test and we can keep holding out.

happy to hear the good news in this thread! i hope everything continues to go well at appointments this week! no new appointments here unless something happens. Almost at 31 weeks

LastMango · November 2016

I'm with you @LoneStar21416. I think I prefer not knowing what my cervix is doing at this point.

Looks like we're all doing a rockstar job of keeping these babies in on this thread. And shout out to my LB @TinaBelcher for growing two babes like a boss! Glad to hear your good news

Had my week 32 appt today and everything looks good. Doc said she thinks he's head down or pretty close to it , but honestly isn't concerned either way yet. Now we are on 2 week appts so I go again in 2!

I am at once a week appointments starting this Wednesday, at which point I'll be at 31 week.

My 24 hour urine test for pre-e didn't come back too great, so baby will be put on monitor once a week and my BP will be checked.

Thankfully, they caught it early. I'm having no other symptoms so hopefully that means baby boy will get to stay in there a while longer! Fingers crossed!!

Had my 32 week check up today. Last week OB thought baby was breech. Today I saw a midwife instead and she did an ultrasound...he is head down! I'm so relieved.

I had my 33 week check up on Tuesday and everything was good..he passed the nst test and i go back next tuesday for ob and nst again..

I had my 34 week check today and they think the baby is breech. I am super disappointed because this baby has been head down since the beginning so I am frustrated. I did feel a few huge movements in the last two weeks so I can definitely understand how the baby flipped, I was just telling DH how I thought I felt the head closer to my belly button which was much different feeling than before when baby was head down. I am just hoping baby goes back to head down asap or else I think I will seriously considering just allowing a CS. I was born breech and my mother was in labour with me for 36 hours, and I was born with dislocated hips and not breathing. I don't think I could handle that, plus these days they usually won't even let you try to deliver breech.

I guess the plan is to wait till 36 weeks when my OB does the pelvic exam and if she isn't convinced the baby is head down she will schedule an ultrasound.

I really hopes baby just starts flipping again in the next two weeks!!

34 weeks now!! Saw doctor the other day. She said everything is going beautifully. I'm still measuring small but a growth ultrasound showed our little one is growing fine. He is head down now. I was oddly enough diagnosed with GD but my doctor and i both think there was an error because my blood sugars have been perfect. She said we could test again but what's the point now that I'm this far? So now i only have to test twice/day. Also the fact that i have a slightly smaller baby is another way to tell my sugars are under control. Blood pressures are fine. I had to get my TDAP vaccine and flu vaccine.
I start seeing the doctor WEEKLY now. Yikes! She said it will be once/week until our baby is born.
I'm getting more winded but still have the OK to work my 12 hour shift job as i feel i can still do it. I'm having trouble getting comfy at night and I'm up more often to pee (maybe once or twice). But I think I'm doing well...just so excited to be done.

So wonderful hearing all your stories as well. Hopefully this next month/month and a half flies by for all of us.

LastMango · November 2016

@sarahmsoda I got the same news at my 34 week check. Baby has been head down since 24 weeks and now is all of a sudden transverse. OB wasn't too worried but I can't help but let it get to me a little. Anyway, I feel your frustration and can commiserate.

litzi-2 · November 2016

@sarahmsoda LastMango, I've been having this "fear" too. i wanted to convince myself that she couldn't flip around at this point. it would take some serious determination on her part, she's super low and i can feel her head down there already.

AshleySparkle720 · November 2016

Appointment on Tuesday! I'll be 34+5 and DD is absolutely head down. her movement has decreased a lot in the last couple days so tomorrow I'm really going to focus on kick counts. If she isn't cooperating I'm going in. DD1 did this to me too and then was born a week later!

I have an appointment on Tuesday. It will be for 32 weeks. It should be pretty boring. The next eventful one should be at 34 weeks when I should get the strep B test, which I'm so looking forward to.
