What's up with mama and baby? My fundal height was measuring at 37 weeks on Tuesday so I am having a growth U/S next Thursday. I don’t necessarily trust these because they told me my son was 9lbs and he was 7. I am only 5’2” so there’s not much room except for baby to stick out. I am exhausted this week but feel the need to nest and clean. I am trying to keep a balance but it’s been hard.
Questions:
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to after baby is born? i.e. - foods you couldn't have, drinks, seeing your toes again, etc... The GD being gone. I want to keep up with healthy eating but I feel like I get stressed out over making sure I get enough carbs but not too many.
What's up with mama and baby? Contractions two or three nights now. Kind of runs together because they like to start up at midnight. Last night I had them for more than three hours before I could sleep. Baby is low and there’s a lot of pressure.
Questions: Nope.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to after baby is born? i.e. - foods you couldn't have, drinks, seeing your toes again, etc... I’m really looking forward to laying on my belly again—but it’ll be a while because as I recall my boobs were really sore for a few weeks/months. I’m also looking forward to being able to be more active since physically this pregnancy has been hard on me.
What's up with mama and baby? Baby is sitting very low, my fundal height last week was measuring 37 and now it's 35. She's dropped significantly. I got checked for dilation today and was 1.5 cm and dr. could feel the baby's head very low. It's now just a waiting game!!
Questions: Nope
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to after baby is born? i.e. - foods you couldn't have, drinks, seeing your toes again, etc... I agree with sleeping in any position other than sitting up against my pillows and headboard..
I also miss Crossfit and the way I used to feel when I was lifting. I can't wait to get back to the gym and take her with me!
What's up with mama and baby? We’re doing well. Ian and I had our last childbirth class last night, which felt bittersweet. The teacher drew this big Pie Chart of Life and emphasized how small of a sliver this pregnancy is, which felt so true! I want to hold onto it as long as possible, but I also want to meet my kid as soon as possible! We’re having a coed baby shower next weekend — I’m excited to see everyone! And for a good excuse to buy a new dress.
Questions: I don’t think so.
GTKY: What are you most looking forward to after baby is born? i.e. - foods you couldn't have, drinks, seeing your toes again, etc... I’d really like a gigantic Italian sub with lots of mayonnaise and lettuce (which I’ve also been avoiding like a paranoid). And a Campari cocktail. And yes — to sleep on my stomach!
