  • Thought we were in the clear but was awakened @ 330am to be told I'm contracting every 45mins and has heart rate drops with each one, so waiting on surgical team to get here @ 7 & they're pretty positive he's coming out today @ 32wks & 3 day…
  • Well, baby decided he wanted to be born stateside. Started bleeding severely 4/25 @ 230am. Had 2 doses steroids, waiting on Dr decision for c-section today. I'm 32wks. Please pray for me & my little man
  • @samantha I haven't spoke to any doctors over there yet, trying to get everything ready to move and don't have much time left over, lol. Most people in Europe speak several different languages because the countries are so close together that pretty …
  • @blissmarie23 All women's bodies are not made the same, or everyone could deliver vaginally and there wouldn't be emergency c-sections. Just like every pregnancy is different, every delivery is different as well. It's great you were able to deliver…
  • I'm sure you know the risks of smoking while pregnant and didn't need someone to spell them out for you. My sister has 3 kids and I know she smoked with all of them and they're fine, no health issues and the oldest will be 10 this year. Smoking make…
  • I've had 9 teeth pulled while pregnant. They don't use novicane, something a little weaker. Most dentist require a release from your ob before they'll even do a cleaning.
  • @Annamazing They can tell gender as early as 16wks with 2d (regular) ultrasound, although its more definitive after 18wks. When your doctor will order your anatomy and gender ultrasound usually depends on their policy or preference
  • Oh yeah...I plan on breastfeeding 6 months. I may have to supplement with formula too because I have implants and they say I may not produce enough milk to exclusively breastfeed
  • @prayin_4_twins I'm glad to hear they're finally getting to the bottom of things. You have been in mine & my hubbys prayers that you'll be blessed like we were. Just keep in mind those like me who never thought they'd get this experience after 4…
  • Just the fact you're worried about being a good mom shows you will be one, otherwise you wouldn't care :) I hope you have a smooth labor and in 12wks, I'll be right there with you!
  • Yeah...I knew this was a boy, lol. My mom said it was a boy before we found out too, lol. My hubby has a girl already too, I've raised her the past 5 yrs (her egg donors a meth addict) so he was very excited to find out he's having a son.
  • Due June 25th with my first baby...a little boy. It took us 4 years to get pregnant & I can't believe its almost over! He's gonna be born in Bamberg, Germany. We're flying over April 26th for my hubby's 3 year tour
  • @caroline8_p Lol, I dreaded it too. She did a few measurements and then had me pee cause bladder was so full it was squishing baby, lol. I was terrified I was gonna pee all over the tech with them pushing on my full bladder! She kept shaking my bell…
  • Mine was @ 20wk and they did what I said in my previous post. They check development of babys important things first...kidneys, brain, heart, spine, etc. Take some general measurements and then check gender. Drink 32oz of liquid 1hr before and it'l…
  • One of my favorite shows! Since being preggo, it always makes me cry. Have all the seasons in dvd!
  • They usually check everything else first, like spine, organs, measurements and things like that...then the fun part where they try to find gender. You're suppose to have a full bladder and its usually done on top of your stomach
  • BTW....if you truly suffer from diabetes, it wouldn't matter if you ate no sugar for a week before the test, you'd still fail. If you suffer from gestational diabetes, there is a lot of complications it can cause with your baby which is why you will…
  • @awaamommy I have gestational diabetes and have to take insulin to control it.139 isn't bad at all. My 1hr was over 200! Normal glucose range is 80-120 and a little different in pregnancy. Carbs are what you have to cut back on if you are having pro…
  • @lisamarie Yep...he's even gonna have the scar to show our son years down the road, lol. He took the last of my cheetos tonight and I was like, don't make me stab you with a fork again, he said you don't have one. So I politely informed him the kitc…
  • @jalem They will test earlier if you show any signs or symptoms. I was tested @ 21wks cause they found glucose in my urine during a regular urine screen. I have gestational diabetes and have to take insulin for it. The usual 1hr test isn't that big …
  • I've heard this happen a lot too, you have to be exactly 6wks or more to see anything on ultrasound. I'm sure you are prob just a little too early. I'll be praying for you and your little one
  • @mythica Is this your first? This is mine and they told me that they don't even begin counting movement till 28wks cause baby is still pretty small and can hide in places you can't feel. Or it could be the placement of your placenta cushioning movem…
  • Your left side provides optimum blood flow to baby, but its not necessary to always lay that way. I'm in my 28th wk and still a stomach sleeper, although I find I toss & turn more, so wind up on my side or back with a pillow propped under one si…
  • I stabbed my hubby in the arm with a fork because he stole a tomato off my plate...its amazing what hormones will make you do, lol. But if our men are acting like buttheads, I say they deserve what they get!
  • Try tylenol and a nap maybe. Have you ever suffered from migranes?
  • I wish mine was all pregnancy related! I have a tumor on my pancreas they didn't find till I was 20wks pregnant and now my sons big enough he's pushing on it, its starting to kill me. It hurts in my upper back and under my right breast. I need to fi…
  • @mommy_2_b So I was right, lol. It was your bloody show and for and its normal this far along! Did they tell you how dilated you are? I'm so glad everything is ok! @grnfish Does your brother work at the hospital or college? I'm lucky to be so close …
  • @amyduh That's why there is a reception desk at the opening to labor and delivery... guess our hospitals are a little more advanced. There is security doors leading to two seperate wards, one for post-partum and one for labor and delivery, you don'…
  • I'm due June 25th with a little boy, my first pregnancy and first baby after 4 years of ttc. This pregnancy has been pretty hard on me, but mainly because of non-pregnancy related medical issues. They found a tumor on my pancreas in January but wi…
  • @grnfish73 I'm in Ft Campbell, Ky. One hospital is a military treatment facility, two are civilian hospitals, and the other is Vanderbilt University Hospital in Nashville. I guess we have it made, lol
