    Upcoming Appointments: Wednesday 

    How are you feeling?:
    generally uncomfortable - had my first charlie
    horse this pregnancy the other day and still limping around 

    Rants/Raves:
    it is so hot and I feel like I don’t even want to leave the house or AC. Some days are better than others but I keep thinking this baby girl is coming early and we just got the crib up yesterday - nesting instincts are there but the burst of energy to accomplish is missing 

    Questions: NA 

    GTKY- if you could spend a week anywhere in the next year, where would that be?
    I would love to spend a week traveling or two or three in Europe. I went when I was in college for the summer to work but have never been back and would love to explore with my DH.

    *Hope it’s okay I started thread but it didn’t look like this has been done in a while

    Team Pink/Blue/Green?:  Team Blue

    Upcoming Appointments: Thursday 

    How are you feeling?: Huge, exhausted, and overwhelmed 

    Rants/Raves: 

    Rants: So I ended up in the L&D ward because I thought i was going into labor. Long story short I wasn’t (But I was already 50% effaced and 1cm dilated and having contractions) but the overall experience with the nurses was AWFUL. The nurses loudly discussed not wanting to take me on as a patient because they were ready to go home. They rolled their eyes when I told them my doctor told me to come straight in if i had three contractions in a row (*eye roll* *huffy sigh* “ don’t come in unless you have six in an hour.” ). I live an hour away from the hospital and this is my second child. And to top it all off, my entire pregnancy my doctor as assured me I’ll be able to have an epidural despite my Harrington rods from my scoliosis surgery. Tell me why the nurse I had that night felt the need to tell me that there was no way ANY of the anesthesiologists at the hospital would even attempt it so I “might as well start getting used to the idea of having an all natural birth.” 

    Basically ai’m freaking out.

    Questions: Anyone else dealing with third trimester morning sickness or is it just me? 

    GTKY- if you could spend a week anywhere in the next year, where would that be? I would spend a week at Universal Studios Harry Potter World. I’ve always wanted to go! 😍😍

    @mama1824 ! I was worried I was the only Group 2 gal left. Sorry you’re still sore from the charlie horse, those things suck!

  • @texasmommahen Wow that sounds like a nightmare visit to the L&D.  I would let your OB know you had this experience and hopefully they can answer any questions you have about day of actual labor.
