Hey Ladies,
Can't believe it's already Feb!! Hope everyone is doing well and excited to see some baby pics from some of the ladies due here anytime.
I'm 8 weeks now. Get nauseous occasionally, but really only when I'm hungry. Fatigue is still a big issue and it's really making working out difficult. I did manage to get a 4.5 mile run in on Sunday, but I haven't done anything since then. Just feel like I'm blowing up like a balloon.
QOW: What special things do you do for yourself on a daily or weekly basis to make you feel good? |

Hello ladies! 39 weeks here. Just 2 days away from the big day! I have so much to do in the next 2 days, before I go in for the csection Friday morning!  it is so much harder getting things ready to go, when there is another child to take care of first.
I am getting so excited to meet our little guy, but am getting super nervous for surgery. My last C was an emergency and it was horrible. I'm hoping this time is better.
Qow: right now the only thing I am doing is soaking in the tub. I do it at least 1-3 times a day. My skin is so dry from it, but its the only time my pelvis doesn't hurt! I am going to get a haircut and a mani/pedi tomorrow, so I don't feel quite as yucky after surgery. Hopefully it helps some.

Hi all 35.5 weeks here.
I went to the doc on Monday. He checked my cervix(no news there) I got my strep test didnt enjoy that,BUT..........he did do an ultrasound and baby boy has turned head down!!! I was so happy. If I had a present with me I would have given it to my doctor totally made my day. I have been hoping for a vaginal birth this whole time. Now Im hoping for no more complications so that I get one. My bp was back up a bit but not higher than it has been so holding steady. I cant believe how much he is still moving around in there.
I have had horrible heart burn the last couple days. I have currently had it for almost 24 hours. Ive been taking tums to help it go away for a bit but seems like I have it all the time and I never had it with dd. Maybe this little man is gonna have a lot of hair.
QOTW: I have been taking lots of baths. Its the only thing that helps my pelvis not ache so much. And the farther I get the worse it is hurting me. Kills me to go up our stairs and lift my legs to put on pants or shoes. Baby must be low, I know he has dropped some and doc told me he could feel the head when he checked me the other day. I also have some aromatherapy lotion I put on my legs at night to help with leg cramps. I told dh that for Valentines I wanted to go get a pedi and a hair cut. Then I wont feel like such a gross mommy here at the end or after when I come home. |

Kimber- it seems we have the same idea of pampering! Got your bag packed yet? I finally had to pack mine since I won't have time tomorrow or Friday morning.  |

Nope bag still isn't packed. I'm trying to decide what I want to put it all in, a duffle or suitcase. So I still have everything that I do have gathered sitting in a pile in our room. I needed to just sit down and do it. I'm really tired today though. Maybe tomorrow. |

Good Luck to both of you, since you're hitting the tail end! I would love to share pics but I can't get them downloaded on here! I hope you can though!
Both of my guys are gaining weight and keeping us busy! But I'm to happy to be tired!
I'll be thinking of you Friday! Prayers and Blessings coming your way! |

34 Weeks here!! Diagnosed with GD about 6 weeks ago, started Glyburide 3 weeks ago and it's working great. Still sticking to the diet, but my numbers look great.
Now, if I could only get work arrangements made. I own a small daycare & had hired a family member to cover dr appts and then be here FT when the boy comes, but then this week she decided that she will "help out, but can't cover all day every day". Really?? You waited until 6 weeks before I'm due to decide this? And now what? It's really too late to tell the parents I have to close for a month. I feel totally screwed over.  I've got an ad on Sittercity, but I don't know how comfortable I can get with a total stranger being alone in my house with "my kids" in that short of a time.
So needless to say, I'm a little stressed. Add working 12 hour days 5 days per week, birth classes 1 night per week and puppy classes 1 day per week, and frankly, I could really use a nice, stiff drink. Oh wait.....

Happy to announce Alessandro arrived safe and sound on feb 6 via csection in the evening.  . Had to deliver at 36.4 weeks because my blood pressure spiked and I started dumping protein in my urine. He weighs 6lbs, 4oz and is 19.5 in long Fortunately That calmed down immediately after I delivered so no mag! . Baby is doing great, and I am feeling much better now that the anesthesia is out of my system. Good luck ladies!!! |

Congrats PierKiss! Glad to hear baby is doing well & you are feeling better.
31 weeks here. I've had (what I think) indigestion and/or heartburn the last few nights. Not fun at all. Guess I shouldn't complain too much though.  |

Thanks Starla! I'm such a nervous wreck this morning!  Just can't wait for it to all be over and finally hold my little guy. |

Thanks for updating for me Kimber.
Baby Corbin is doing well. I've had a painful day, but I am so in love it was worth it! I'll be back with pics when I am near a regular computer (not phone). Hope everyone is doing well! |
