Re: March mommies to be....

Happy new year to you too! I am feeling pretty good. Starting week 28 tomorrow (officially 3 trimester I think) and I go to the doctor on Friday for my regular 4 week check-up and the dreaded glucose test Wondering what I will weight in at too. So far, I am up 24 lbs and I bet money I gained at least 5 more these last 4 weeks

I have finally also accepted the fact that I will NEVER be able to sleep for longer than 3 hours at a time though Boy do I miss sleep!

Other than that the baby (we didn't find out the sex) has been super active and I am enjoying it.

Began the resgistry process, baby shower last Saturday in February, and childbirth/parenting calsses start on Tuesday

Re: March mommies to be....

Doing pretty well besides :
- have what i think is a slight case of sciatica - numbing in right buttox and thigh....

Failed 1 hour glucose - took the 3- hour (fun!) on Monday - awating the results.

But these are good:
Crib and dresser - ordered!
Futon for Grandparents (nice one with upgraded mattress) to be delivered on Sunday.

Daycare - selected
Shower - sometime in Feb -but my mom won't tell me when

Nursery painting and window treatments done.

Trying to sign up for childbirth classes
Baby kicking a few times a day - very active when she does- but not very frequently

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was doing good...until my brother reminded me that I have 11 weeks 3 days to go!!!!!!!!! I swore I had so much time left but once he said 11 weeks I was like

I failed my 1 hour glucose...passed my 3 hour. I have a dr's appt tomorrow...will be 30 weeks next week!!!!!! I've also accepted that sleep is not part of my schedule...I had morning sickness twice this week..praying that it will not come back.

Lately I have been thinking that I have not been eating right, my baby is not getting all of his/her nourishment, I haven't eaten anything that is good for the brain development and I haven't talked as much as I should to the baby so my baby is not going to be smart....HELP ME...I driving myself to depression

Re: March mommies to be....

Happy New Year!
March seems so much closer now that it's January!

My shower is next weekend- I can't wait!
We still can't agree on the location of the baby's room.

I think once I come home from the shower with 500 boxes of baby junk, he will agree that Max Power needs more room than our television does.

Re: March mommies to be....

I feel terrible. Im 31.5 weeks, my ankles are starting to swell at night. My back is miserable again, I cannot sleep but Im beyond tired all day long. My heartburn has become worse than ever. That baby is moving less now than she used to, Im assuming she is running out of room because I AM HUGE. Good news is that, everything is going great, as far as my health, and is just about 4lbs. My shower isnt until February 2 (ill be 36 weeks )

Re: March mommies to be....

Happy new year! I feel okay except for my sciatica(sp) is very painful. I only sleep about 4 hours a night but i get up a millon time in between. I'm use to the no sleeping I dont know why but it has been like that since my ms started in August. But I swear everytime i feel my kick I could care less about my pains!

Re: March mommies to be....

Happy New Years ladies - we're in the home stretch!

I feel fine - getting a little more tired toward the end of the day but that might be my busy schedule and commute into NYC daily. I should learn to slow down a bit.

Passed the 1-hour glucose

Baby is moving tons (mostly first thing in the morning and ca. 11:30PM is when I can see my belly dance).

We're still praying for a spot at my first pick daycare (we'll know mid-January)

I'm def. living LARGE. I guarantee I'll be up 40-50lbs by the end of this, but my MD says I'm doing fine so I'm not going to stress too much.

I start Childbirth class next week, schedule BF class for February and scheduled a 3-D for 2 wks from now

I don't know when exactly my shower is but things are coming off my registry

Nursery is painted but we (well, DH) needs to install a closet organizer and doors. I have my glider and the dresser. Crib isn't in yet and I have to order the changing table (just getting that through Target).

Re: March mommies to be....

Happy New Year Ladies - we are in the home stretch! I am feeling pretty good, passed my 3 hour. I am quite tired with the anemia (sp?) getting a lot of Braxton Hicks. Have bought bedding & registered and that is about it. I was saying to DH this morning, the next 9.5 weeks are going to go quick! Hope everyone is feeling good

Re: March mommies to be....

Hi soon to be mommies! Happy New Year! I'm doing pretty good at 31 weeks I can't complain, I'm sleeping most of the night (still only waking for bathroom breaks) and I feel good, even though I'm as big as a house. I passed my 3 hour test but by the skin of my teeth so my doctor still recommended a low sugar diet. It hasn't been so bad though.

Only 9 weeks to go!
